Wuxia Fantasy: Starting with the Revitalization of the Beggars' Sect

Lin Ye was awakened by a sharp sound of something cutting through the air. When he opened his eyes, it was already dawn. In fact, he hadn't slept much last night and had been resting with his eyes closed.

He looked up in that direction and saw a streak of light shooting through the clouds in the southeastern sky, leaving a trail of white smoke in its wake.

Lin Ye frowned slightly. This was their Beggars' Sect's Cloud Piercing Arrow, and their brothers over there were calling for help.

Zhang Wuji and the other two had also woken up by this time. Seeing this, Zhang Wuji asked, "Brother, what happened?"

"The gang is in trouble, I'll go check on them."

After saying this, Lin Ye rushed in that direction, running for more than twenty miles. There, he saw more than fifty people dressed in gray robes with flame symbols printed on them surrounding the group of beggars.

They are clearly members of the Ming Cult.

At this moment, Zhang Wuji and Zhu'er and the others followed closely behind. At a glance, they saw that the Ming Cult's banner had a large character for "earth" written on it, and knew that it was the Thick Earth Banner, one of the Ming Cult's Five Elements Banners.

On the other side, there were only a dozen or so beggars, one of whom fought bravely against the enemy. He was none other than the Dragon Head who wielded the staff.

Although the dragon-headed wielder was imposing, his opponent also had a formidable opponent. At this moment, one of his opponents was locked in fierce combat with the dragon-headed wielder, and the two sides were evenly matched, making it difficult to determine a winner.

However, the disparity in manpower between the two sides was too great. Although the leader of the staff could hold his own, the other disciples could only struggle to maintain their position.

Seeing this, Lin Ye did not hesitate and rushed into the battlefield. He met the man with red flames printed on his gray robe with fists and feet. With a few quick movements, he knocked down several people in the blink of an eye.

Upon seeing that powerful reinforcements had arrived, the surrounding people immediately abandoned the enemy in front of them and turned to attack Lin Ye.

Seeing weapons coming from all sides, Lin Ye took out the dog-beating stick from his waist and used the "Seal" technique, which resulted in a vicious dog blocking his way.

With a sweep of the dog-beating stick, before the opponent even arrived, he felt his body freeze, and the force of his strike immediately weakened by half.

Lin Ye followed suit, using sticks to provoke the mangy dog, harassing its body, disrupting its kennel, and provoking its paws... In the blink of an eye, most of the attackers had fallen.

Spider watched with rapt attention, only to see Lin Ye join the battle, instantly turning the tide of the war.

Having dealt with the people around him, Lin Ye noticed that the elder holding the staff was still unable to subdue the man. He separated the two with a single blow and went to meet the man himself.

The elder wielding the staff was focused on his battle and hadn't noticed the gang leader's arrival. Now that he did, he was overjoyed and cried out, "Gang leader!"

The man who had fought with the leader of the staff was taken aback when he heard him call this person "gang leader," not expecting that the other gang leader would come to his aid so quickly.

His skills were already slightly weaker than Lin Ye's. After fighting for twenty moves, he realized that he was no match for the man in front of him. Upon hearing that he was the leader of the Beggars' Clan, he secretly decided to retreat.

He became even more hasty in his attacks, hoping to force Lin Ye to retreat a step or two. However, haste makes waste, and after fifty or sixty moves, Lin Ye knocked the longsword out of his hand with a single blow.

With a move reminiscent of a barking dog, he pointed his staff and struck the opponent's throat with the tip. With a soft thud, the opponent's throat caved in an inch, and he instantly died.

The rest of the opposing team were terrified upon seeing this, and one of them shouted, "Retreat!"

Then someone shouted, "Li Shi, the deputy commander of the Hou Tu Banner, has ordered all brothers of the Hou Tu Banner to retreat!"

At his command, the Ming Cult followers waved their flags and fled westward.

Seeing the enemy flee in disarray, the beggars were greatly encouraged and gave chase. Lin Ye knew that the Five Elements Flag was full of tricks and feared that there was a trap ahead, so he told them not to pursue them too far.

The beggars dared not disobey. After the enemy had gone far away, they returned to Lin Ye's side and, led by the dragon head wielding the staff, bowed in unison, saying, "Greetings, Chief."

His voice was booming, and when it reached Zhang Wuji and the others, they were all taken aback.

They only knew Lin Ye as a disciple of the Beggars' Sect, how could they have imagined that he was the leader of the Beggars' Sect?

Lin Ye had no time to pay attention to them. He glanced around but saw no sign of the power transfer. The two elders in charge of enforcement then asked the dragon head wielding the staff:

"Where are the Elder in charge of the staff, the Elder who transmits the power, and the Elder who enforces the law?"

The dragon head holding the staff looked extremely embarrassed, stammering and remaining silent for a long time.

Lin Ye frowned slightly. Seeing this situation, he knew there must be something fishy going on. Not only were the two elders in charge of the transmission of skills absent, but most of the Beggars' Sect disciples were also not there.

Including the leader of the Beggars' Sect, there were only about eleven or twelve Beggars' Sect disciples in front of them.

Just then, a commotion came from not far away. Lin Ye and the others looked in that direction and saw the two elders who were enforcing the transmission of skills rushing towards them.

Upon approaching and seeing Lin Ye, they all bowed. Seeing the disheveled appearance of the leader and others, they knew they had been ambushed and their brows furrowed.

Lin Ye asked, "Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

The elder holding the staff said shamefully:

"Chief, it was my fault for not heeding the advice of the two elders and for being too hasty and reckless, which led to the brothers being ambushed by the demonic cult."

He dared not lift his body.

Lin Ye asked the Enforcement Elder, "Enforcement Elder, is that really the case?"

The elder in charge of law enforcement bowed and said, "Yes."

Originally, the Transmission Elder and the Enforcement Elder planned to proceed slowly and wait for the gang leader to return. However, the Staff-wielding Elder was impatient and unwilling to wait any longer. Due to their differing ideas, the Staff-wielding Elder led more than ten disciples ahead on his own.

Unexpectedly, they encountered an ambush by Hou Tuqi along the way.

Unexpectedly, they encountered an ambush by Hou Tuqi along the way.

Upon seeing the distress signal, the Transmission Elder and the Enforcement Elder hurriedly led the remaining disciples to their rescue.

Fortunately, Lin Ye had arrived first and relieved the siege of the dragon head holding the staff.

Upon understanding the reason, Lin Ye sighed inwardly, for those who were eager for quick success and rash advances throughout history had never met a good end.

However, he also understood that the leader of the baton-wielding gang was just a martial artist, how could he know so much?

Even so, mistakes must be punished.

He said to the elder in charge of the staff, "Elder in charge of the staff, have you considered that the brothers in the gang might lose their lives here because of this? What will you do then?"

"Your subordinate knows his crime, but please punish him, Master."

Lin Ye nodded. "I should have demoted you to the Eighth Bag Elder, but considering your contributions to our gang, I will temporarily retain your position as the leader of the gang, but suspend your right to participate in council meetings for one year."

"Thank you, Chief."

The gang leader readily accepted his punishment, knowing that if the gang leader hadn't arrived in time, they would likely be in grave danger.

At this moment, Lin Ye turned to the two elders who were passing on their skills and enforcing the law, and said loudly, "Elder who passes on their skills, Elder who enforcing the law."

The two elders were quite surprised and suspicious. They heard that the gang leader's voice was not loud, but it seemed to contain authority. They quickly said:

"Your subordinate is here."

"You failed to dissuade him, causing the elder in charge of the staff to be put in danger. Do you know your mistake?"

The beggars were all taken aback, not expecting that the two elders who were passing on their skills and enforcing the law were involved.

The two elders knew that the gang leader must be furious at this moment. After thinking it over, they realized that they had not stopped the elder wielding the staff properly, and the gang leader's blame was justified.

The two men bowed and said, "We know we were wrong."

"It's good that you know you've made a mistake. You will each receive ten lashes from the rod, to be personally carried out by the elder in charge of the rod."

Upon hearing this, the dragon head holding the staff froze in place, and the group of beggars and Zhang Wuji and the others beside him were also astonished.

Lin Ye ignored him and had already ordered his disciple to hand the discipline stick to him.

The leader of the gang, staring at the discipline stick in his hand, was at a loss for words. "Chief, this..."

Suddenly, he knelt down on the ground and cried out, "Master, I know I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again."
