Daily life of a cultivation judge

Chapter 366 Tang Qi's Shamelessness

?

Tang Qi was very tactful and avoided giving the details of the beating he was given when he knocked on the doors of the Mountain Guarding Array Manor.

The moment he was done giving a brief overview of what happened at the end and downplaying the conclusion of events at the headquarters of the manor, he quickly moved on to the next phase which was his interaction with the Silver Blade Sect.

"After a few months of leaving the Mountain Guarding Array Manor, i went on with my investigations to find who broke into my abode. 

While I didn't care about most of the things they stole, I did care about my legacy art the Rising tide saber art, and the booklets that had my insights recorded on them.

I was unwilling to accept that someone had stolen them just like that. Those two items are just as valuable as my own life.

It took countless years of blood, sweat, and tears to research and gain insight into the art along with thee numerous insights I continuously derived from it.

It was hard for me to accept that someone could get away with thousands of years of MY EFFORT just like that..." said Tang Qi.

His statement made the group from the Silver Blade Sect wish the floor below them would just cave in and swallow them whole which would spare them from the situation they were in.

Before their interaction with Tang Qi, they were a sect on the rise and had millions fawning over them within their territory with their sect master having swarms of cultivators from different organizations coming to form a partnership with them because of how much radiance they had been showing in the past decade.

However, all that changed the moment Tang Qi stepped through their doors. It was a downhill from that moment on and now here they were, accused of robbery.

"With a little investigation, I finally found traces of the thieves, which led me to the doors of the Silver Blade Sect.

It wasn't that hard really.." 

When he reached this point Tang Qi threw a cold smile in the direction of sect master Shao Rong.

"The sect over the past decade made a name for themselves using my saber art and insights, along with using whatever resources they stole from me to boost the reputation of their sect and grow its strength.

In just a decade they went from an average tier rank 4 sect to an above average one with fearsome saber skills to boot.

When I heard about them, I wasn't sure it was them who stole from me. I don't know if it was out of caution or hubris but when they started using my saber art the name they gave to the outside world wasn't the Rising Saber art but they called it the Galaxy Wave Silver Blade art which they claimed was created by their grand elder when he had a sudden inspiration from seeing shooting stars.

However, as someone who has studied that art for thousands of years, how could I not know its intricacies and qualities? 

Even if they plastered a different name on it, the moves and the intrinsic qualities were the same as the Rising Saber Art.I think you should take a look at

When I was completely certain it was my art, I went and confronted their sect about it and sought recompense along with them returning all my items.

However, they had the gall to deny it and said it was their grand elder who created the art by improving on their already existing cultivation art that they have had for over ten thousand years, which was how long they said their sect has existed.

I'm usually a patient person, judge Yang Qing..." Tang Qi said as he looked at Yang Qing with a solemn expression.

Patient, how? And from what Yu Gen told me when you went to the Mountain Guarding Array Manor you didn't even bother with words. You immediately went on to slap the guards at the entrance as you made your way in, bringing chaos and mocking words.

You even had the gall to demand all the treasures of the Mountain Guarding Array Manor for compensation and then redesign your abode with blue-grade formation arrays at their expense.

You were lucky, they only gave you a beating. How could someone be this thick-skinned?

Yang Qing however didn't call Tang Qi on his pretense since he was indeed the wronged party in this instance, so he nodded along in a perfunctory manner.

Tang Qi who was nervous at first as he made that statement since he knew clearly how things really went and that the Order knew it too, felt an enormous weight of potential embarrassment drop from his shoulder when he saw Yang Qing go along.

With the judge giving me face, I can't be shameless about the last part and overdo it. I should keep it brief, Thought Tang Qi as he looked to finish his version of events.

"Humans have their bottom line and dragons have their reverse scales. I could tolerate a lot of things but I could not tolerate being called a thief by people who actually stole from me. 

So I acted. The best way to prove the art they practiced was really mine was to show it to them, which I did.

I used the Rising Saber Art and attacked when I saw words were not getting anywhere. I'm ashamed to say I let anger get the best of me in that moment and bullied juniors who are young to be my great-grandchildren, but if one steals they should be prepared to accept the consequences of that act.

A few of their elders and grand elders attacked, along with deploying their sect guarding array. I injured about 11 of their elders and destroyed half of their array and a couple of buildings.

However, I can assure you judge, I did not kill any member of their sect.." said Tang Qi.

Tang Qi has always been rather tolerant of others, especially as a rogue cultivator, where they were all on their own and could not afford to draw in enemies left right, and center. His experience at the Iron Shattering Palm sect had an impact too, which made him a little averse to brutalizing those weaker than him.

He was even surprised at the destruction he caused at the Silver Blade Sect which was out of character for him. On a normal occasion, he would have just opted to settle it with the Sect master and used a bit of force to bring him to reason, but on this instance after their first denial, he became irate and immediately attacked.

He couldn't help but feel the beating he got from the Mountain Guarding Array Manor had some part to do with his reaction.
