"I want to personally investigate and meet with the disciples who were in those dungeons at the time of the incident."
"Starting from the disciple who was ranked number one, Fang Chen."
Qin Wentian's words rang throughout the Grand Meeting Hall.
Sect Leader Su frowned at Qin Wwentian's demanding attitude. However, he chose to remain silent when he saw the batch on Qin Wentian's shirt.
Heaven Oracle Sect was not a power he could mess with. Even though they won't destroy the whole Gracious Sword Sect just over a disciple, they would still create trouble for them to 'teach a lesson.'
Sect Leader Su knew very well that the powers in the Middle Heavens had a very unpredictable approach, and this was another reason that made him remain silent.
He just nodded and continued to listen to Qin Wentian's demands.
Truthfully, he was waiting for the right moment to get Qin Wentian to straighten his back - he was waiting for the right moment to shut him up. Though he wouldn't go as far as harming the boy in front of him, well...maybe it would be mental harm.
"We will be staying in your sect for at least a whole month, so you better prepare a good place for us to stay." Qin Wentian didn't notice the subtle frown on Sect Leader Su's face as he continued to speak his mind, with his hands behind his back and chin raised high, "Also, I want the disciples to come to my residence. I won't be going to them just for this."
The hall turned silent as Qin Wentian's words came to an end.
Seeing Sect Leader Su still staring at him, Qin Wentian shrugged at him, "What? So you don't want to do these things?"
Sect Leader Su raised his eyebrows as an expression of surprise formed on his face, "Oh, you finished? I thought you had more things to say."
"..."
Sect Leader Su scratched his chin while replying, "Well… I don't have any problem with any of your demands. However, since you have come back two days later, I am pretty sure that you're not here to get Kang Bai to 'justice', or else you would have returned the very same day."
"The fact alone that you would come back and interfere in two power's problems, again and again, is very strange, especially because of the power behind you - the Heaven Oracle Sect."
"So, here's my condition - give me the reason which made you come back here - And I would comply with your demands."
Qin Wentian's face turned ugly when he heard Sect Leader Su's response, "You should be careful about what you ask for, Sect Leader Su. There are some things that one just shouldn't know for their own safety."
Sect Leader Su almost puked when he heard Qim Wentian's words, "Boy, let me remind you one thing - you're in my house. You can't act as you wish. So just be a good guest, and I might allow you to do what you're here for."
"Oh?" Qin Wentian's lips curved upwards, "Do you think you're in the position to make me give you respect?"
Sect Leader Su shook his head, "You just don't listen, huh? Even young masters of Middle Heaven Clans are not as arrogant as you are. Well, there is one - but he's confident in his abilities, and so are the people who have ever met him - he's the only one in your generation who can make demands in front of me."
Noticing Qin Wentian slowly clenching his teeth, Sect Leader Su smirked, "If the best advantage you have is the power behind you - you have no right to make demands in front of others, especially in their own home."
"You can choose to treat my words as literal nonsense, but trust me, kid. Not everyone would hesitate to take your life just because you're Heaven Oracle Sect's disciple,"
By this time, Qin Wentian's breathing was getting erratic. It just made Sect Leader Su inwardly delighted as he continued, "You're making demands here. You know very well that no one can touch you in the Lower Heavens because of the power behind you. But that doesn't give you the right to act however you want. There is a certain etiquette that everyone follows - you're a guest here, not the master. I am the master."
Qin Wentian closed his eyes and took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself down.
He then said, "Sect Leader Su, I would ask you to think again what you have just said - trust me on the fact that you don't want to create enmity with the future Sect Leader of the heaven Oracle Sect."
"Future Sect Leader?" Sect Leader Su stood up from his seat and stared at Qin Wentian for one good long minute, and then burst into laughter, "Hahahaha, how fuckin' delusional! Hahahaha…"
After a laugh that seemed to last for eternity to QIn Wentian, Sect Leader Su finally stopped, "Boy, what made you think of something absurd? As far as I remember, there are three top contenders for the position of Sect Leader in your sect - and all of them are girls."
"You… don't seem to be a girl to me… or, are you?" Sect Leader Su starred from up to down at Qin Wentian, with the best possible judgemental face he had ever made.
If Sect Leader Su's laughing at him wasn't enough to anger Qin Wentian, the mention of the girls did blacken his expression.
He narrowed his eyes while replying, "Sect Leader Su, future is uncertain, be it them or me, there's still a long way to go. But I can assure you, the day I become the Haven Oracle Sect's Sect Leader will be the day your sect will have the greatest power under the heavens as its enemy."
Sect Leader Su shook his head and took out a wooden token from his pocket.
Holding it through his index and middle finger, Sect Leader Su raised it and showed it in front of Qin Wentian, giving him a very clear view of the token.
"Impossible!" Qin Wentian shouted as the color of his face drained within an instant.
