Divine Harem: My Sect of Heavenly Beauties

In the centre of almost twenty Foundation Realm Cultivators, Xiao Lan stood all alone. However, there was no trace of fear on her face.

Only pure excitement!

Nonetheless, she still had a cold head and was observing everything. First thing she noted was how the security wasn't alert. They didn't seem like they were expecting any attacks.

This confused her and made her a little wary of the situation. Still, this was all in her rational side of mind, as the other part was screaming to burn the whole world down.

She licked her lips and played with her fingers as crimson red strings formed on her finger tips. Some of them quickly attached to the skeleton, making it burst in flames again.

"Here they come!"

Xiao Lan grinned, as she waved her hand, shooting the strings towards one of the guards and pulled.

The guard tried to evade the strings and even cut down a few. But they were like never ending, as they just kept coming at him. The speed at they were coming had caught him off guard.

As he was going to use his technique, one of the red string pierced his silver armour and dug deep in his flesh like a thorn.

"Aghhh!"

The guard screamed as he clutched his leg, which felt like it was on fire. The moment the string went inside his flesh, it felt like someone had stabbed a burning hot iron in his leg.

Before he could think of a solution, he was pierced by many of the red strings, causing him an intense pain he had never experienced before.

Then, with a jerk he was pulled forward like a fish from pond. He wanted to resist but it was all for null as he was soon hit by a violent impact on his belly.

"Aghhh!"

The guard screamed even more as the wound on his belly grew deeper because of the impact. It was clear that the assaulter didn't hold back in the least.

The agony from the crimson red strings was already too much for him to bear and now he was almost cut in half. The guard couldn't hold any longer and lost his consciousness.

As if on cue, the red strings inside him exploded setting his whole body on fire. An Early-Stage Foundation Realm Cultivator was gone just like that.

The other guards stopped in their tracks as they saw the chilling scene. Their eyes filled with horror as they looked at the body burning before him.

Xiao Lan still stood on her place, a light smirk playing on her lips. She turned her head and said, "How did you like killing one of your own?"

A man stood there with a horrid look on his face. He wanted to sneak attack on Xiao Lan so how did things turn out like this?

"You can join him!"

A voice entered his ears, making his whole body shudder in terror. He gripped his sword tightly and slashed forward, anger burning in his eyes.

A huge wave made of pure qi shot out from from his sword, making a whistle as it traveled rapidly and reached Xiao Lan in no time.

Looking at the sword wave, Xiao Lan just smiled and stepped forward, disappearing from her position. The sword wave passed through her previous spot and eventually crashed into the wall, making a huge gash on it.

The walls were reinforced with powerful enchantments and here it was, crumbling down in aftermath of their fight.

'They will be troublesome once they get out of their fear. I'll have to hurry!'

Xiao Lan narrowed her eyes and crouched down, sending her red strings underground.

The opponents she was facing were Foundation Realm Cultivators and no matter what, she wouldn't come out unscathed if they fought in their prime.

They were just too shocked and paralysed in fear that they couldn't think things rationally. They wouldn't be dying so easily otherwise.

The elderly woman who had cleared away the dust was the first one to get out of daze and shouted.

"She's only one. Kill her!!"

With her shout, the other guards seemed to have gained some clarity as they all began to charge their techniques. However, they were a little later.

"Aghh!"

"Ughh!"

All the techniques were instantly cancelled screams filled with agony and pain filled the area. All of them dropped their weapons and fell on the floor, groaning in pain.

They hurriedly checked themselves and found a few crimson red strings stuck in them like a hook. They were the reason for their pain.

Worse were the strings that were attached to their bones, so no matter hard they tried, they couldn't pull them out.

One of them quickly came to a decision and took his sword with much difficulty as the pain was still far greater than he had ever endured.

Still, he found some courage, raised the sword and brought it down on the red strings which were sticking out of the ground.

But it was a mistake.

The strings were cut easily, which made him happy but it didn't last long as the strings exploded from inside, setting his whole body on fire.

Others who were going to try something similar instantly stopped as fear gripped their heart. The scream of agony, as if his soul was burning was sending chills down their spine and they didn't dare to try more.

However, they also couldn't endure the burning sensation which brought intense pain.

Standing up, Xiao Lan looked at her foes, all sprawling on ground and crying out loud. Their screams soothed her heart as she remembered the screams of slaves.

She had spent years in this headquarters and seek the cruelty slaves had to face. Their torment was something that even unnerved a Divine Phoenix like her.

Xiao Lan had long decided to burn the whole organisation down, as she remembered the days she had to spent listening to those screams.

Every day, someone would be punished.

Every day, someone would be tortured.

Everyday, someone would die.

She has seen everything and gone through everything. There were no humans in this settlement. Not a single one of them was human.

They treated their own kind like a tool. Those eyes that brought torment to the slaves, completely indifferent as if their deaths meant nothing, was still clear in Xiao Lan's mind.

It wasn't just her revenge she was taking. No, she was far above these mortal things. She was taking revenge for all those poor souls who have suffered under these human skinned monsters.

There had been a couple of slaves who had tried to befriend Xiao Lan, but she always refused. Still, some of them left a deep impression on her.

Xiao Lan had always looked down on humans and she still did. However, she had also come to learn that there were exceptions everywhere.

So, today, she was going to kill these monster who wore human skin but had no humanity.

She didn't even feel pity for the guards as every single one of them was part of the cruelty. Not a single one deserved a good life.

Who decided that?

Xiao Lan decided that. She was a Divine Phoenix, a being who ruled over the heavens and brought judgement to even the mightiest beings.

The emotions she had been trying to suppress so they didn't hinder her finally broke out as she looked before her, a blank look on her face.

The door to the cabinet near the main gate was opened and a middle-aged man, with a bald head and long beard, came out. His torso was on full display as he only wore long pants on his lower body.

In his one hand, he held a pipe through which he was smoking and using his other hand, he dragged a corpse of a woman.

She was completely naked, with bruises and blood covering her whole blood. Her hair missing from some places, as if someone forcely ripped them apart. The blood coming out from there was a proof of that.

Her limbs were in uneven angle, clearly broken brutally. Scratches were visible on her charred legs. And finally, there was a lot of fluids on her body, especially between her legs.

The bald man threw the body aside and said in heavy voice, "Who dared to disturb me?"

Suddenly, the atmosphere dropped to the bottom as everyone felt their body shivering in fright. Primal fear rose from their heart, making them feel as if they were standing before the most cursed being.

The bald man was no exception. In fact, he felt the most of the pressure and his legs almost gave away. His mind went blank as he couldn't even process anything.

If he was in a state to see his surroundings, he would have witnessed his subordinates body exploding one by one. They weren't even set on fire like others and literally exploded from inside out, throwing gruesome stuff everywhere.

Not only that, the woman's corpse bald man threw also didn't hit the ground as she was caught in a pair of warm arms. They were trembling, but even then tried to hold her as gently as possible.

"Master! Can you show mercy on her?"

"There is no need to ask that."

"Thanks! And sorry, but I will take some time."

"Show no mercy!"

"Gods may forgive them but I won't!"
