“I am Qi Tian, if you have a question, just ask. Nevertheless, I do not guarantee that I will answer your question.” Qi Tian stated plainly.

“How dare you speak to the Master Uncle this way. Don’t you know respect and hierarchy?” Before the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator could even speak, Guo Shouyu stood up and scolded, pointing at Qi Tian.

Qi Tian glanced at Guo Shouyu, then saluted the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, saying, “Senior Brother, this man does not understand the concept of respect. He preys on his fellow disciples and stirs up trouble between elders, breaking several rules of our sect. People like him are corrupting the culture of the Hundred Birds Palace. Surely you have something to say about that?”

“Senior Brother?” The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator was taken aback and quickly looked closely, “You? Have you reached Foundation Establishment already?”

Qi Tian shrugged and replied, “Is that so strange?”

“How is that possible?” The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator could not believe his own ears. However, he knew that Qi Tian had likely achieved the Foundation Establishment since Qi Tian’s aura, although faint, could still be detected upon careful perception. Although reluctant to accept it, the evidence was in front of his eyes. He thus greeted Qi Tian and said, “Congratulations brother on your promotion to Foundation Establishment, truly a cause for great joy. I congratulate you from here.”

“There’s no need for congratulations. Let’s talk about him first,” Qi Tian pointed at Guo Shouyu.

Guo Shouyu, who was scared to the point of going pale, seeing Qi Tian pointed at him, he prostrated on the ground and kept kowtowing towards Qi Tian, begging, “Master Uncle Qi Tian, please, spare my life.”

Qi Tian showed no emotion, remaining indifferent.

Guo Shouyu then turned to that Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, begging, “Master Uncle, I was thinking for the good of our Hundred Birds Palace. Please, you must save me no matter what.”

The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator set his face coldly. He had frequently been bribed by Guo Shouyu before, and was well aware of Guo Shouyu’s misdeeds. But Guo Shouyu had offended a Foundation Establishment Stage person this time, and even a young one at that. The situation had become quite serious, beyond his ability to cover.

In an instant, the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator made his decision. He couldn’t afford to offend Qi Tian, who had a promising future as a new Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. He raised his hand and aimed a blow at the forehead of Guo Shouyu.

Guo Shouyu was not one to give in without a struggle, he must have been on guard against being executed. As the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator targeted him, Guo Shouyu suddenly activated a protective talisman that blocked the cultivator’s hand. At the same time, he launched himself towards the door of the Hundred Birds Palace. No matter what, he wanted to fight for it, even if there was only a one percent chance.

The Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator hadn’t expected Guo Shouyu to resist. By the time he reacted, Guo Shouyu had already dashed several meters. “You bastard!” he was instantly outraged, as he rushed forwards. He was in the Foundation Establishment Stage and Guo Shouyu was only in the Qi Cultivation Stage, so the gap between them was too large. Almost instantly, he caught up with Guo Shouyu and landed a direct blow.

If during the previous blow, the cultivator was still showing some sentiment and did not exert his full strength, this time he showed no mercy and struck with all his might. As a result, Guo Shouyu collapsed limply like a noodle, dying on the spot.

Qi Tian nodded approvingly and commented lightly, “Senior brother, I respect your capacity to enforce sect rules on such a rebellious offender. May I know your name, so that I can spread the word of today’s event in the future?”

Upon hearing Qi Tian’s words, the Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator felt quite relieved. He laughed and saluted Qi Tian, saying, “I’m Wang Yongfu, serving as a duty officer in the Hundred Birds Palace. Today’s matter was caused by this person’s wanton misconduct, and I was deceived by him. I beg for your forgiveness.”

Qi Tian laughed, he didn’t want to investigate Wang Yongfu’s responsibility. The situation was certainly not as Wang Yongfu described, but the issue was that he did not have the authority to punish Wang Yongfu and he had no interest in wasting time reporting Wang Yongfu to the Enforcement Hall. Wang Yongfu, after all, was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, a high-end fighter for the Imperial Master Mansion. Even if he faced some punishment, he knew it wouldn’t be serious and he might just end up offending this veteran Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator. So, he replied, “I can understand your difficulty; underlings who cheat and deceive their superiors are all too common.”

“Indeed,” Wang Yongfu immediately felt a sense of comradery. He had been worrying about how to appease Qi Tian, and was surprised when Qi Tian himself sent him an olive branch. Naturally, he readily accepted Qi Tian’s offer and replied, “Qi Tian, you are reasonable. That’s exactly what happened. Do you have any particular reason for visiting us? Come, let’s sit and chat in my office.”

Qi Tian didn’t refuse and followed Wang Yongfu deep into the Hundred Birds Palace. Wang Yongfu intended to befriend Qi Tian and appeared quite enthusiastic. After inviting Qi Tian into his office, he personally poured a cup of hot tea for Qi Tian. “Qi Tian, have a taste. This is Spirit Tea that I’ve managed to acquire after much difficulty.”

Qi Tian picked up the tea and took a sip, remarking, “This is indeed a good tea, leaves a lingering taste. Senior brother, the reason for my visit to Hundred Birds Palace today is because my mount has been injured, and I was hoping to see if you could help treat it.”

“Oh, let me take a look at your mount quickly,” Wang Yongfu said urgently.
