The Almighty Dominance Chapter 608

Chapter 2250 – The Fire That Spreads

By the next day, news of the incident had spread across the entire sect.

Everyone was talking about it—

The disciple from Thousand Herbs Peak who had crippled members of the Discipline Committee.

The name Jun Jiu echoed everywhere.

Within Thousand Herbs Peak, the response was immediate—and unanimous.

They stood together.

“Explain this to me,” one disciple said bitterly. “Sword Peak cuts off one of our brother’s arms, and no one says a word. But the moment we fight back, the Discipline Committee suddenly shows up?”

“They should be investigating Sword Peak instead,” another snapped.

“Exactly.”

A third lowered his voice, glancing around cautiously. “Haven’t you heard? More than eighty percent of the Discipline Department… they’re from Sword Peak.”

“That explains everything,” someone else muttered. “Sword Peak dominates the sect—tournaments, battles, everything. They’re always the strongest.”

“Not like us,” another added quietly. “We study herbs, medicine, formations… not combat. Of course the Discipline Department favors them. Sword Peak has been bullying others for years—and no one stops them.”

Silence fell.

Heavy.

Oppressive.

Then—

“But not this year.”

Heads turned.

“We have Jun Jiu now.”

“I heard his techniques are terrifying,” someone whispered. “Sword Peak disciples didn’t even dare fight back… even after losing their arms.”

The murmurs spread like wildfire.

For the first time—

Hope took root.

Meanwhile, atop Heaven Law Peak—

The heart of the Discipline Department—

The atmosphere was suffocating.

An elder stood at the front of the hall, his face dark with fury.

“We have been humiliated,” he said, his voice low—but razor sharp.

“Humiliated… by Thousand Herbs Peak.”

His gaze swept across the room, cold and cutting.

“Those people who spend their days tending gardens and refining pills…”

His fist slammed down.

The table shattered instantly.

“Do you feel no shame?” he roared. “They should fear us—not the other way around!”

A disciple stepped forward and bowed deeply.

“Master, this was my failure. I assigned only four people.” His voice steadied. “Give me another chance.”

The elder said nothing.

“I will personally lead the next group—twenty at Great Qi Condensation… and one at Foundation Establishment.”

His eyes hardened.

“This time… no one will touch them.”

Silence gripped the hall.

“We won’t just bring Jun Jiu back,” he continued coldly. “Anyone who dared harm our people will be taken as well.”

“They will answer for it.”

“Go,” the elder said.

“I will not tolerate another mistake.”

Twenty-one figures bowed as one—

Then vanished.

They didn’t stop.

They didn’t slow.

Anger burned through them like fuel.

Since the last incident, the entire sect had begun looking down on them.

This time—

They would reclaim their honor.

They went straight to Jun Jiu’s residence.

“Jun Jiu!” the leader roared.

His voice shook the air.

Inside the hut, Alex stepped out slowly.

Calm.

Unbothered.

“Why are you shouting?” he said casually. “My hearing works just fine. Or are you deaf?”

“How dare you!” one of them snapped. “You injured Sword Peak disciples. Kneel. Cut off one arm. Submit yourself.”

His voice dropped.

“Last chance.”

Alex tilted his head.

“Just one arm?”

“…Yes.”

“Only one?”

“…What, you want to negotiate?”

“No.” Alex’s lips curved slightly. “I’m just surprised.”

“Surprised?”

“You came all this way…” His gaze sharpened. “And only brought enough courage to ask for one?”

Laughter erupted behind him.

“So the Discipline Department are cowards now?”

The leader’s face twisted.

“Everyone who touched our people yesterday—kneel and come with us! One year of confinement!”

Shock rippled through the crowd.

“That’s absurd!” Lu Piao stepped forward. “You didn’t even ask what happened—you just came to enforce your version of justice!”

Steel flashed—

Twenty swords drawn.

“If you refuse,” one of them said coldly, “we’ll drag you there.”

“Is force your definition of justice?” Alex asked quietly.

The leader laughed.

“In Murim… justice belongs to the strong.”

A pause.

Then—

Lu Piao laughed.

“You all heard that,” he said, turning to the others. “Justice belongs to the strong.”

His grin turned sharp.

“So if we win… we’re justice.”

He clenched his fists.

“Brothers—attack!”

The Discipline members burst into laughter.

Then—

They froze.

Something was wrong.

Their energy—

Wouldn’t respond.

No matter how they tried—

Nothing moved.

Lu Piao’s fist slammed into the leader’s face.

Crack.

Teeth scattered.

Chaos erupted.

More than a hundred disciples surged forward.

Without their inner force—

The Discipline members were helpless.

Blow after blow rained down.

“This isn’t fair!” the leader screamed. “You poisoned us—!”

But no one listened.

They were beaten into the ground.

Not far away, Alex stood quietly.

From the moment they arrived—

He had already read the wind.

A nearly invisible powder—

Carried through the air—

Sealed their inner force.

Harmless.

Temporary.

But decisive.

“So this is justice,” Lu Piao said, breathing hard, grinning.

“The strong decide everything.”

He kicked one of them.

“I kind of like this kind of justice.”

His eyes burned.

“They came here to take our brother’s arm—”

His grin turned savage.

“So this time…”

“Shave their heads.”

“Strip them.”

“Throw them out.”

“Let the Discipline Department see what happens when they push us too far!”

A beat—

Then the crowd exploded.

Cheers roared across the courtyard.

Wild.

Unrestrained.

High above—

The sect leader watched.

Then—

He laughed.

Loud.

Unrestrained.

“I haven’t been this entertained in years.”

“Master,” Li Qingxue said calmly, “shouldn’t this be stopped? A small fire can grow out of control.”

“Oh, come on,” he waved it off. “The Discipline Department has always sided with Sword Peak.”

His eyes gleamed.

“And now… they’ve kicked an iron plate.”

“Don’t you want to see what happens next?”

“No,” she said. “I’m afraid the fire will spread… until it burns Jun Jiu.”

The sect leader smiled.

“I don’t think so.”

“Let’s make a bet.”

Silence.

“If Jun Jiu burns—you can intervene. Ask me for anything.”

A pause.

“But if the Discipline Department burns…”

His voice dropped.

“You will stop him.”

“And…”

“You will become his Dao partner.”

Li Qingxue’s eyes widened.

A long silence followed.

Then—

“…Yes, Master.”

The sect leader laughed again.

Even louder.

The next day—

The Discipline Department erupted.

“We will send a hundred people!” the elder roared.

“Crush them. Bring Jun Jiu back!”

His eyes burned with fury.

“And if they resist—”

A deadly pause.

“Burn the entire Thousand Herbs Peak.”
