Harness Cultivator
Chapter 163: Warning

After heading upstairs, Lee Tao quickly found a comfy bed and laid down with his back.

"Ahh~ Finally a comfortable bed to rest in." Lee Tao exclaimed aloud.

Although Da Mung had many furs around him, it wasn't a bit comfortable to sit on.

Thus, Lee Tao had already sent him back to the ancient ruin since the hideout wasn't big enough to accommodate his sheer size.

Of course, this action of his had shocked the other two women from the Dual Blossom Sect.

But what can they do?

Their status is now of a mere captive, and learning more information than they could handle would spell trouble.

"Master, what should we do now?" Deng Lijuan sat on a chair and hovered closer to him. "This is the Raven Guild's hideout and you had provoked them already. What if they try something funny at night?"

Lee Tao looked at Deng Lijuan for a brief moment before smiling wickedly.

"What kind of funny things do you think they would try to pull?" He asked.

Deng Lijuan was about to respond but stopped herself. Instead, she glanced around the surroundings with a somewhat cautious behavior, almost like she feared that the room was being spied on.

Through the countless warnings and teachings from Lee Tao, Deng Lijuan would never act carelessly again.

And that includes accidentally revealing some information without knowing if it's safe to reveal or not.

"Rest assured, Deng Lijuan. I already sealed this room off the moment we entered." Lee Tao patted her head softly.

"Though I must say, I'm impressed by your swift learning in the cultivation world. Never believe anything or anyone no matter what."

"Does that include you as well, Master?"

"Of course, I'm the biggest bluffer and liar you have ever met. So make sure to not practice everything you learned from me." Lee Tao shrugged his shoulders.

Deng Lijuan nodded her head vigorously.

"Rest assured, Master. I will definitely not listen to you blindly. Hence, I'll still call you Master even if you said not to." She said blissfully.

Meanwhile, Zhou Jingjing and Zheng Wenling were nearly disgusted by the behavior of Deng Lijuan.

"Hmph dog couple," Zhou Jingjing spat out.

Zhou Jingjing's meaning was that Lee Tao and Deng Lijuan had an illicit love affair or taboo.

After all, it was clear as day that Deng Lijuan held some loving emotion toward Lee Tao.

Alas, she should have kept her mouth shut because Deng Lijuan didn't appreciate her remark one bit.

With a sound wave, Deng Lijuan directly slapped Zhou Jingjing's face using her profound qi.

"Even if we are a dog couple, I doubt a bitch like you has any authority to utter any nonsense." Deng Lijuan snorted coldly.

And she continued, "One that has been abandoned by their very own master because of my master's skills is even lower than a rat in a sewer."

"You-" Just when Zhou Jingjing tried to point her finger at Deng Lijuan and rebuked her, she was quickly cut off by Deng Lijuan's words.

"Don't you dare talk to me in that tone, Zhou Jingjing! My master might be generous enough to spare your lives for now, but I'm different. Anyone that dared to talk bad against my master will only have one fate."

Afterward, Deng Lijuan exuded a powerful aura, causing Zhou Jingjing to vomit blood from the pressure.

Since her cultivation base was thoroughly restricted by the chain on her wrist, she was completely helpless against Deng Lijuan.

"Coward, I dare you to fight me fair and square." Zhou Jingjing cursed aloud.

Her face complexion had turned white from the pressure pressing upon her.

Deng Lijuan could only shake her head at the sight of Zhou Jingjing.

"How pitiful of you, Zhou Jingjing. You have been a dual cultivator for how long yet you still haven't learned the correct method to survive in the cultivation world." Deng Lijuan said sarcastically.

"There are no such things as fair and square. Only the strongest remain, and currently, I'm stronger than you. Hence, in my eyes, you are nothing but a disposal pawn." She added.

Zhou Jingjing gnashed her teeth at the continuous taunting from Deng Lijuan.

Her eyes were filled with fury as she wished to strangle Deng Lijuan.

When had she ever offended them?

All she ever did was retreat from a ferocious magical beast and cross paths with them accidentally.

"Deng Lijuan, you have turned them enough. No need to stoop to their level." Lee Tao suddenly said, diffusing the tension in the room.

"I-I understand, Master." Deng Lijuan said politely as she returned back to her seating.

Of course, she made sure to give one final glance at Zhou Jingjing.

"Hmph," Zhou Jingjing scoffed and remained in her position.

"Senior-Sister, you should stop arguing with her already." Zheng Wenling, who had been silent throughout their farce, whispered to Zhou Jingjing.

"I know her words may sound harsh and hard to swallow down, but it's indeed true that our sect is weaker than her Master. Despite his young appearance, we should know appearance can be deceiving in the cultivation world."

Zhou Jingjing nodded her head.

"You're right, Junior-Sister. I don't know why, but I felt like Deng Lijuan must be hiding something…"

Time slowly passed by, and Lee Tao had already gone to sleep in the bed.

While Lee Tao and the rest went to sleep in their room, back on the first floor, the Raven Guild were discussing what to do.

"Leader Song, are we really going to just let them be in our hideout?" One of the guild members asked Song Xiaoli.

"Yea, they were planning on extorting us even though we had told them our identity already."

"I think we should just kill them right now and save ourselves some trouble. They're probably new to the Sierra Desert as well and that person seemed like a typical arrogant young master."

As soon as one of the guild members voiced their opinion, it created a domino effect and made everyone voice their suggestion as well.

THUMP!

Song Xiaoli's loud slam on the table with her shoe caused everyone to stop their discussion.

"Did you really think I'm naive enough to let such dangers remain in our guild?" Song Xiaoli asked sarcastically.

"Originally, I wanted to use the nighttime to kill them silently, but that man is not so simple. He had purposely fixed a formation runes mark with such ease to warn us not to do something stupid."
