Chapter 20 – Beast-Taming Peak is out of luck
The sky gradually brightened!
The shop owner of the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion opened the store door as usual and deactivated the formation technique.
Just as he was about to take a deep breath of the fresh air outside, a foul stench hit him straight in the face.
"Ugh!"
"What on earth smells so bad... What's all over the street?"
The shop owner of the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion quickly activated the formation technique again to block out the stench from outside.
Seeing the situation on the street, the shop owner returned to the store with a big smile on his face.
The shop clerks, seeing their boss so happy, all asked, "Did something good happen, boss?"
"Just go outside and take a look, but make sure not to leave the formation."
"Hey, Xiao Zhang, bring me that one-meter-long iron rod. I've lost so many customers because of them, and now's the chance for revenge," the shop owner of the Hundred Artifacts Pavilion said through gritted teeth.
A similar scene played out in various shops.
Some shops, regardless of age or gender, had everyone equipped with a long stick.
A shop owner instructed, "When I give the order, hit them hard, don't let a single one go, but don't use spiritual energy. After all, we're on someone else's turf, and we don't want to cause any fatalities."
These shop owners were all businessmen, and what they cared about most was foot traffic.
The more people outside, the more customers they had, and the more money they made.
But every time the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak appeared in the marketplace, the foot traffic would immediately drop by half, greatly affecting their business.
They had reported this to the sect, but the sect hadn't provided a solution.
After all, you couldn't just strip someone of their freedom to visit the marketplace because they were disliked.
Moreover, these shop owners didn't dare to provoke the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak.
Previously, a shop selling elixirs had offended them, and the Beast-Taming Peak disciples entered the shop in batches, not causing trouble or making a fuss, just wandering around inside.
With the Beast-Taming Peak disciples inside, other disciples who wanted to buy elixirs didn't want to go in.
After all, there were other shops selling elixirs, with similar prices and quality, so they could just switch to another shop.
The shop owner suffered in silence, unable to drive them out.
Within a few days, the shop had to move.
This left the remaining shop owners with no choice but to swallow their anger.
But cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents, and these shop owners had long hated the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak, but they never had the chance to act.
Finally!
Heaven had opened its eyes, and the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak were about to have a stroke of bad luck, giving them the opportunity for revenge.
Meanwhile, the senior brothers and sisters setting up stalls in the marketplace also arrived.
Seeing the chaotic scene, they were so angry their noses were crooked.
At least the shops could open, but they didn't even have a place to set up their stalls.
"The Beast-Taming Peak is going too far!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, and responses echoed from all directions.
"The disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak are simply lawless."
"We don't even have a place to set up stalls, it's like they're trying to kill us."
"We can't take it anymore, brothers, if we endure this wave, next time they'll be on top of us."
"Do you think we can endure this?"
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Let's go, those who have the guts, follow me to their place and drag them out."
Immediately, a large crowd surged towards the residence of the Beast-Taming Peak disciples.
Hiding in the crowd, Qin Yu and others were overjoyed; the crowd's reaction was even more intense than Qin Yu had imagined.
It seemed the outer sect disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak had really done all sorts of bad things.
Yesterday, when Qin Yu saw the crowd's reaction to the Beast-Taming Peak disciples, he could tell that the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak were like street rats, hated by everyone.
But these rats were protected by the sect rules, leaving everyone helpless.
And Qin Yu just happened to take advantage of this point.
Since they used the sect rules to protect themselves, he would first make them violate the sect rules.
So last night, Qin Yu collected the excrement of spirit beasts and spread it evenly in crowded areas like the marketplace and the central plaza, fabricating a false image of the Beast-Taming Peak violating the rules.
Qin Yu provided the crowd with a spark.
No one cared whether this spark was real or not, as long as it could ignite the fire.
What the crowd needed was just a reason not to be punished by the sect rules.
......
Soon, a group of people arrived outside the cave abodes of the outer sect disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak.
Qin Yu looked around; the cave abodes of the Beast-Taming Sect disciples were basically the same as his, the only difference being that the courtyards in front of their wooden houses were slightly larger.
Their spirit beasts usually stayed in the courtyard.
"Kong Tianjiao, get out here!" someone shouted loudly.
Kong Tianjiao was the owner of the Earth-Shaking Dragon Elephant and the leader of the outer sect disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak.
Hearing the noise outside, the outer sect disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak all came out of their cave abodes.
"What are you doing?"
Seeing such a large crowd outside, they were taken aback and hurriedly activated the formation in the courtyard.
However, recalling that they hadn't done anything against the sect rules recently, they boldly scolded:
"Are you trying to cause trouble? How dare you."
Qin Yu shouted from the crowd, "Get lost, who do you think you are? Tell Kong Tianjiao to get out here."
A senior brother stepped to the front of the crowd and said to all the Beast-Taming Peak disciples, "You people openly defy the sect rules and disrupt the peace of the outer sect. I'll count to five, and if you don't come out, we'll break the formation and drag you out."
"5!"
The Beast-Taming Peak disciples were defiant.
"What did we do? Don't falsely accuse us here."

"Exactly, you say we violated the sect rules, then tell us which rule we violated."
"Hmph, don't you know what you've done?"
"Have the guts to do it but not to admit it, huh? A bunch of cowards."
"4!"
"3!"
Seeing the crowd's anger, the disciples of the Beast-Taming Peak panicked.
"What... what do you want to do? Trespassing into someone else's cave abode is against the sect rules, and serious offenders will have their cultivation abolished and be expelled from the Xuantian Sect."
"And you have the nerve to talk about the sect rules? Why didn't you think of the sect rules when you brought your spirit beasts to wreak havoc in the marketplace and central plaza last night?"
"You violated the sect rules first, and now we're upholding justice by bringing you to justice."
'Damn it, stop wasting time!' Qin Yu, knowing the rule that villains die from talking too much, interrupted the argument and shouted decisively:
"Stop counting, brothers, grab your weapons and charge with me!"
Bang~
Kong Tianjiao kicked open the door and pointed at everyone, cursing:
"You've grown bold, let's see who dares to break my formation?"
Kong Tianjiao, while tidying his clothes, strode out.
Behind him was a charming and cute female disciple, whose cheeks turned red upon seeing so many people, as she smoothed out the wrinkles in her clothes.
Seeing this scene, the crowd was infuriated.
Not only did they have no remorse for messing up their stalls, but they also had the nerve to fool around with women here.
It was as if they didn't take them seriously at all.
"Charge in and grab him!"
The crowd surged forward, breaking through the formation and tying Kong Tianjiao up tightly.
The rope used to bind Kong Tianjiao was a spirit treasure that could suppress the spiritual power within him.
Fearing it wasn't enough, someone took out a bunch of suppression talismans and plastered them all over Kong Tianjiao's body.
To deal with this guy, everyone unhesitatingly took out their most prized treasures.
The Earth-Shaking Dragon Elephant cowered in the corner, trembling, ignoring Kong Tianjiao's calls.
These humans were simply too terrifying.
I barely know Kong Tianjiao.
"Damn it, are you all crazy? What do you want to do?"
Realizing that the crowd was serious, Kong Tianjiao dared not pretend any longer.
"I advise you to calm down, brothers, hurry and save me!"
"Shut up!"
Someone pulled out an immobilization talisman and slapped it on Kong Tianjiao's mouth.
The rest of the Beast-Taming Peak disciples were so scared they kept retreating, not daring to step forward.
But Kong Tianjiao's words reminded the crowd.
"Brothers, don't let a single Beast-Taming Peak disciple escape."
"To the Beast-Taming Peak disciples inside, will you come out on your own, or do we have to go in and drag you out?"
"Labor and capital, Shu Dao Mountain!"
"Three!"
"Brothers, charge in and drag them out!"
