MMORPG: The Almighty Ring

"Brother Jiang, although you are the group leader, we have the right to voice our opinions too. You can't be so dominant!" Liu Peng added excitedly when he saw that Jiang Fei did not react to his earlier statement.

"I am saying this for the last time. From now on, you all must follow my orders without questioning me. If you cannot accept it, leave immediately!" Jiang Fei said angrily.

"Hehe, brother Jiang, you are being unreasonable. Do you really think you are all that amazing just because you are the group's leader? You can't get rid of anyone just because you feel like it!" Liu Peng said in a weird tone. When he saw that the girls were paying attention to him, he became even more arrogant.

"Whew…" Jiang Fei was nearly losing control of his temper. Under normal circumstances, he might have chosen to ignore Liu Peng's immaturity. However, they were in time of war and the battle was about to begin. He did not have time to deal with this kind of nonsense. Moreover, he could not stand a brat like Liu Peng causing trouble in his group.

"Liu Peng, that's enough!" Yang Qing shouted.

"Junior Qing, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, you can ask the other seniors present. I am sure they support what I said as well!" When Liu Peng saw that the most admired girl in the group was actually talking to him, he felt even more encouraged. However, little did he notice that the other seniors around him were slowly distancing themselves away from him.

Right then, Jiang Fei took out his communication device and started speaking into the public channel, "Where are the people from the Solitary Cloud Palace?"

"They're here with me. What's the matter?" Bai Wanli answered. Nearly more than half of the alliance members were there with him. Most of the middle-sized and smaller sects were all gathered near Bai Wanli.

"Ask their sect master to speak with me," Jiang Fei said calmly.

"Oh! Liu Bi, turn your communication device to the public channel. Brother Jiang is looking for you!" Bai Wanli shouted. Although Jiang Fei had never heard of the Solitary Cloud Palace, they were actually a rather strong sect. Despite not being one of the mainstream sects, they were still much stronger than Green Willow Heights. Otherwise, they would not have been able to send one of their disciples to accompany Jiang Fei.

"Brother Jiang is looking for me?" Liu Bi was stunned. He had never crossed paths with Jiang Fei in the past.

"There is no point in looking for my master. I am merely reasoning. We are not your slaves!" As Jiang Fei openly spoke into the communication device, Liu Peng had heard what he said. However, he did not seem to mind Jiang Fei's actions.

"Brother Jiang, are you looking for me?" Liu Bi spoke through the public channel.

"Is Liu Peng your disciple?" Jiang Fei asked calmly.

"Yes, he is. What's the matter? Has something happened to him?" Liu Bi's heart raced.

"Not only is he refusing my orders, he is also openly challenging my authority. I will kill him now," Jiang Fei spoke in a calm manner as if what he said was of no importance at all.

"No, no, no. Please don't, brother Jiang. Liu Peng is still young and inexperienced. I will teach him a lesson myself!" Liu Bi quickly responded.

"I am not discussing this with you. I am merely informing you," Jiang Fei said as he terminated the call.

"Brother Jiang, listen to me…" Liu Bi was still speaking when he suddenly realized Jiang Fei had already exited from the public channel.

"Brother Bai, please help me out!" When he saw that Jiang Fei was not giving him a chance to speak, Liu Bi quickly sought help from Bai Wanli. He hoped Bai Wanli could speak on his behalf.

"Ahh! Young brother, I really can't help you out this time. Moreover, it would probably be too late by the time I get in touch with brother Jiang!" Bai Wanli sighed as he patted Liu Bi's shoulder.

"No… He is my best disciple…" Liu Bi froze. He then looked around, hoping to find someone who could help him. However, he saw that everyone shook their heads helplessly.

"Hehe! Do you want to kill me? Who are you trying to scare?" Liu Peng laughed coldly as he looked at Jiang Fei. He thought that Jiang Fei was merely threatening him.

"I have indeed intimidated a lot of people. However, you do not deserve it!" As soon as Jiang Fei spoke the last two words of his sentence, he suddenly appeared right next to Liu Peng and hooked his fingers around Liu Peng's neck.

"You!" Liu Peng did not even have time to react as Jiang Fei's fingers tightened. Jiang Fei easily penetrated Liu Peng's Qi Body Protection and immediately crushed his throat. The Level 3 Liu Peng died in the hands of Jiang Fei who was a Pinnacle Level 4 expert. He was annihilated like an ant which did not even have time to struggle.

Wham! Liu Peng's body was flung to the ground. Jiang Fei looked around at the young martial artists around him as he asked calmly, "Does anyone else still have any other concerns regarding my authority?"

"..."

None of the over fifty young martial artists dared to speak. They did not even dare to breathe too loudly. When Jiang Fei's gaze shifted around from one person to the next, some of them even felt goosebumps.

The Solitary Cloud Sect's main disciple had been killed without hesitation. They finally realized that Jiang Fei was being very serious. At the same time, they understood what would happen to them if they continued to challenge Jiang Fei's authority.

"Since no one else has any opinion, let's get ready to enter the battle!" Jiang Fei waved as he summoned a flame to burn Liu Peng's corpse into ashes.

"Demon! He must be a demon!" All of the young martial artists thought unanimously.

When these young martial artists looked at Jiang Fei again, their eyes were filled with fear. Even the ladies who had fought alongside Jiang Fei in the previous battles in Tokyo were beginning to fear him. Yang Qing was the only person who looked amazed, as if she had just discovered a new continent. She seemed to be very impressed by Jiang Fei.

Jiang Fei looked satisfactorily at the young martial artists. He did not care what they thought of him as long as they followed his orders and did not cause him any trouble.

After Liu Peng's disturbing incident, the mutants began attacking the Xiankong Island Sect and the Valiant Viridian Sect.

The two big sects were attacked without any sign of warning. Their weaker state in comparison with the Soaring Cloud Sect was very apparent. After being assaulted, the two sects' teams became scattered and that had given the mutants an opportunity to assassinate quite a number of their Level 3 disciples.

Although the Xiankong Island Sect and the Valiant Viridian Sect had rather strong capabilities, they did not have the aid of a unique formation like the Soaring Cloud Sect's Seven Stars Sword Formation. They could only rely on their own strengths to fight against the mutants. Very soon, the fight turned into a chaotic battle as the Xiankong Island Sect and the Valiant Viridian Sect started losing their members as they were greatly outnumbered by the mutants.

"Follow me!" Jiang Fei called after the martial artists around him as he started charging toward the battlefield.
