Hu Tao finally made it to the sect and couldn’t help himself from grinning wildly. It really was a party of a lifetime. Disciples were fighting in life-or-death brawls, running and jumping all over the place, and digging up any parts of the ground that held even the smallest amounts of qi. The only thing stopping this from becoming the best thing ever was that the elders made sure to stop the disciples from literally uprooting the sect’s buildings and areas. Any disciples seen trying were punished without mercy from the elders.  

  Just looking at the Outer Court’s current state was enough to cause Hu Tao’s blood to boil in excitement. If the Outer Court was this awesome, then the Inner Court had to be fucking unbelievable! Hu Tao hopped off his cloud and landed at the entrance of the Golden Serpent Sect’s gates. He flashed the sect’s emblem he kept in his storage ring and ran his way towards the Inner Court. Upon making it inside the Inner Court, he was immediately greeted with a nice kick to the face.  

  He caught the leg of his attacker and frowned. This was a leg he recognized and it wasn’t someone that could give him the excitement he was looking for. At least, not in their current state. They needed time to grow before being able to give him a challenge. Hu Tao released their leg and was about to run off for a real fight but he was stopped by the masked cultivator. 

“Hu Tao. I need your help.” They asked. 

“Now isn’t really a good time for me, Hairless.” He waved them off. There was something a lot more fun waiting right in front of him. 

“Tao... If you don’t help me, I could die.”  

“And how is that my problem? Just don’t be weak and you’ll be fine.” Hu Tao chuckled before walking off. Not interested in her problems in the slightest. 

  Jie clicked her tongue as he started walking away. A selfish perverted bastard like Hu Tao wouldn’t help her unless there was some benefit for himself involved. But she couldn’t just let him walk away like this or she really would die! Jie rushed towards him again. Since he didn’t plan on helping her voluntarily, she’ll force him into helping her. 

“Hu Tao! My love! Save me!” She threw herself towards him just as her pursuers caught up to her. 

“What the fuck are you talking about?” Hu Tao readied his hand to slap the shit out of this dumb bitch only to find himself being charged at with multiple swords. 

“The girl has an ally! Kill him before capturing her!” 

“Huh? I’m not involved with this crossdressing bitch. But if it’s a fight you want, it’s a fight you’ll get.” Hu Tao grinned. 

  Two red shadows coming from the inside of Hu Tao’s body split from his body and charged towards the incoming cultivators. While his shadows were playing with the assassins, Hu Tao snatched Jie by the throat and lifted her up.  

“Don’t think you can use me like this and get away with it. Just because we spent a little time together in the Treasured Plains doesn’t mean we became best friends, alright?” He threatened while choking her. 

“I’ll pay you back...” She pointed her sword at his chest. 

“You’ll pay me back huh? What if I requested something like this?” He grabbed a handful of her ass that promptly painted a red blush on her face. 

“Help me... get rid of my family’s enemies... and I'll do whatever you want...” She choked out. 

“Ooh. Now its help you rid you of your family enemies and not just save your life.” Hu Tao pointed out. 

  He released his grip from her throat and watched her fall to the ground. She hacked and coughed on the ground to try and get some air into her lungs. Hu Tao didn’t care about any of this. He gently grabbed her by the face and forced his lips onto hers. She tried resisting at first but it seems Hu Tao wasn’t only talented when it came to martial arts but also in other matters... Jie was forced to live with the fact that her first kiss was taken by this selfish, insufferable, sexual deviant. Along with secretly loving every second of it. It felt disgustingly wrong how good she felt during their kiss but she wasn’t completely gone from pleasure. 

  Jie thrusted her sword into Hu Tao’s chest, pushing him away. Her sword barely left a mark on Hu Tao’s bare chest but injuring him wasn’t her goal in the first place. It was to part his lips from her own. He grinned at her when he saw the hate-filled glare staring at him. That only made her regret choosing to rely on this pervert for help in the first place. 

“I’ll take that as an early payment for wasting my time with you.” He licked his lips after the separation of their tongues’ passionate duel. 

  Shivers ran through Jie’s body but she knew it was too late to take back her words. If Hu Tao could truly deal with her family’s enemies then her virginity isn’t too large of a cost at all...  

“Stick with me while I have my fun though. I’ll deal with your family shit after all this fun is done and over with.” Hu Tao said as his clones returned to him covered in blood. 

  Seeing Hu Tao’s clones easily clean up the pursuers that were after her only made her conflicted emotions grow even more agitated. He didn’t even have to take on the men she stood no chance against with his real body. It upset her greatly that a man with so much talent and strength  had the most despicable personality inside the sect. How was it fair at all? 

  Hu Tao let the Crossdresser follow behind him as he tried to find the place with the most cultivators fighting. Hu Tao was talented as both a qi and body cultivator but his specialties lied more on the physical side. Simply because it was more fun to beat the shit out of people with his body than using qi to do so. At a time like this, Hu Tao would normally rely on his natural instincts to find the most people but more than half of the cultivators in the Inner Court were qi cultivators. So, he used his qi to sense where people were and hurried his way over there with Jie in tow. 

  As he was about to make it to the massive battlegrounds near Elder Mo’s mansion, he was suddenly stopped as a familiar figure appeared in the distance. This guy could’ve been fun but was a total pushover last time they fought. Hu Tao was interested in seeing how far he came along but he didn’t hold much hopes. He was one of those secretive bastards that hid their true strength in public even when their lives were at stake. 

  That familiar figure that Hu Tao saw conjured a flame within his hands in the shape of a phoenix and tossed it in their direction. The flame gradually increased in size until it was large enough to engulf both Hu Tao and herself. Jie was shocked at seeing the power held within those flames and immediately prepared herself to avoid the incoming attack. Whoever this person was wasn’t holding back at all! He intended to kill! 

  The battle crazed angel flicked out with his chain and had it smack the incoming giant phoenix into nothingness. He flicked the Phoenix bastard off before attempting to jump into the real battlefield far ahead of him. But as he did that a girl appeared in front of them and used both of her palms to knock Hu Tao far away. Jie readied her sword as Hu Tao was flying away. Did these two have history with Hu Tao or were they just blood thirsty disciples using the current situation to release their pent-up dark desires. 

“Who are you two?” She asked, preparing herself for a life-or-death struggle. 

“She isn’t part of that black girl’s group. Unless she’s new.” The handsome white-haired boy commented. 

“So, we don’t have to kill her?” His spirited partner with an impressive bust asked. 

“It depends. You, girl, are you going to get in our way?” He asked her. 

“I can’t let you kill him...” Jie responded. 

“Then she is our enemy.” He concluded. 

“I’m not killing anyone unrelated. What’s your relation to Hu Tao?” The girl asked Jie. 

“I need him to help me with something personal. We aren’t friends or allies or anything of the sort. If you are willing to delay your current plans of killing him until after we’re finished with our business, I will gladly stay out of your way.” Jie spoke. 

“So she says. So, what are we going to do, boyfriend?” The girl asked the white-haired boy. 

“This could be our only chance of killing him while his true allies aren’t around. Who knows how much he’ll grow by the time of the Grand Tournament... I apologize but I can’t take that risk of him getting even stronger. We must kill him today.” He decided. 

“I’ll have to do everything in my power to stop that then.” Jie declared. 

“Yanyu, handle the girl. I’ll handle-” He couldn’t finish his words as Hu Tao flashed past and kicked him directly in his stomach, sending him flying away. 

“Handle that you Phoenix fuck! You want to go a second round? This time I'll really tear your fucking heart out!” Hu Tao shouted.

This isn't going to lead into a long arc only featuring Hu Tao for those that absolutely despises this little irredeemable villain of ours. We're only going to be him for a little bit before switching in with Jing, the rest of the gang, and then going along with back to back pov switches kind of. I'm trying to build up hype for this Grand Tournament a little bit but i'm not sure... I wanna make it awesome. I want the fights to be looked at like, OH MY GOD HE'S GOING AGAINST WHO!? DOES HE STAND A CHANCE? WHO WILL WIN AGAINST TWO EQUALLY FEARSOME DISCIPLES? and stuff like WHO IS THIS DARK HORSE TAKING THE TOURNAMENT BY STORM? HE DEFEATED THE GREAT AWESOME *insert random generic young master with a little talent here*

You know, the generic xianxia stuff that we just can't get enough of but I also wanna add some stuff that isn't so generic. Like my own little twist or flavor on the xianxia tournament sequence. I don't know what that is yet but i'm going to try to find out. Also comment ur own suggestions for this upcoming tournament between Golden Serpent Sect disciples!

Comment/Review on the story readers and give me ideas on possible xianxia things you want to see! No guarantees that I will add what you want. But it helps to have ideas out there. Please point out any mistakes you notice or anything you're not clear about. I'll try to answer them and fix them to the best of my abilities.
