Corrupt Creations

"Haven't you all heard the Sanctuary Master's words? Come on! Keep putting pressure over them and don't let the Grand Elder even think about moving!"

Inside the main hall, the Elders were totally lost. Most of them started wildly guessing about what could be happening on the outside, but there were a few, who were still interested in the show that had just happened.

One of those Elders, was Elder Hu. He was an opportunist, a leecher, who would love to jump forward at the first opportunity, to show off to the Sanctuary Master in order to get recognition. If he were to get on that man's good side, then his pathway to greatness, would be opened and clear.

And what better scenario, than the one happening right in front of him, to accomplish that?

Elder Hu suddenly went forwards and started ordering everyone, taking the role of a leader. However, inside his twisted mind, his thoughts were deviating to a really dangerous zone.

He turned to look towards Grand Elder Chuanli's son and a thought couldn't help but appear ion his head.

'The Sanctuary Master would certainly reward me, if I were to take care of that trash that had disrespected the goddess!' With that in mid, he started moving towards the platform.

Grand Elder Chuanli was being suppressed by a few Profound Mana initial-stage Realm practitioners, but if it weren't for the Sanctuary Master's residual aura inside of his body, he would be able to free himself from their suppression. Unfortunately, he could only stare at Elder Hu's strange actions and loudly yell for him to stop.

"Stop! What are you planning to do? Don't go near the stage!"

His voice seemed to be coming out through the small gaps between his gritted teeth, since the pressure being exerted on him, had escalated after Elder Hu started acting. If the Elders holding him down didn't increase the pressure, there would be the risk of him getting free due to a sudden outburst.

Elder Hu smiled with scorn and ignored Grand Elder Chuanli's words, quickly jumping and stepping right inside the elevated stage, where his target was.

His Profound Mana initial-stage Realm aura, assaulted everyone there, making even the female servants, tremble.

Meiyi felt totally frozen with that powerful practitioner approaching and she could only observe him in fear and apprehension. However, she was not his target, so Elder Hu turned his back at her and looked at the kneeling prisoner instead.

The man stood there with his head hung down and with a lifeless expression. His body was bruised and there were no energy fluctuations around him. With a single glance, Elder Hu realized that with a single weak blow of his, he could easily kill him, squash him as if he was stepping on an ant.

He eerily smiled as he slowly started moving that way and Dongmei, Chuanli and Meiyi felt their hearts racing. They knew nothing good would come out of that. However, Dongmei and Chuanli were not in condition to do anything and at a certain point, even their voices were getting heavily suppressed by the invading aura inside their bodies.

The only one that could do something, was Meiyi, but just coming in contact with that Profound Mana Realm aura, had already left her trembling and hopeless.

Elder Hu approached dangerously close to Donghai, and looked directly at his lifeless face. After a few seconds, he slowly extended his right arm, until his right hand almost touched Donghai's shoulder. While he moved his hand forward, a purple glow started concentrating on the tip of his fingers, as he was preparing to torture the prisoner with his cruel techniques and see if he could extract more "juice" from that situation.

However, he stopped right before he could touch him, since he suddenly heard a desperate scream coming from behind.

"NOOO!!! Get away from my father!"

Meiyi shouted with all her might, startling everyone that was on that stage. The women holding her, got momentarily stunned and their hands loosened the tight grip on her, for a bit.

That simple action that happened in that small fraction of a second, was enough for Meiyi to escape from their grasp and start running towards her father. Her poor youthful face, was distorted in dread and sadness and her eyes were already fully swollen and moist. She was so emotionally affected, that she hadn't even thought of using the techniques she trained and just run forward without any care.

As she launched herself forward, she ignored all the danger she was putting herself into, just so she could protect the one who had silently protected her throughout all this time. Meeting her father, was one of her dearest wishes and seeing his condition, had left her heartbroken.

However, her speed and her actions, were completely meaningless before someone like Elder Hu. For him, it was like a slow, defenseless and weak creature, was trying to defy his power and judgement.

The hand who was almost touching Chuanli's son, was quickly retracted and positioned at a different angle. With a single movement, Elder Hu could slap Meiyi's face and send her flying back towards the distance.

Even though Elder Hu knew killing Meiyi was out of question, he didn't know what was the level of protection she was put into, much less the real importance the goddess had attributed to her. In his head, he could injure her a bit, as long as it does not go too far. And not knowing he was horrible wrong, his arm moved forward, launching his hand towards her face.

Pah!

Crack!

The loudest slapping noise that they had ever heard in their entire lives echoed through the hall, as everyone saw a shower of blood spreading everywhere, before a headless corpse flew towards one of the distant walls, crashing directly into it and coming to a stop.

Things escalated too fast and none of the Elders were able to clearly understand what had really happened. But once they looked at that corpse's direction and saw the torn attire that he was still wearing, they instantly realized, the headless dead body belonged to none other than Elder Hu.
