Dragon Monarch
Chapter 21 - Punishment
The two strongest cultivators of the Heavenly Dragon sect were certainly surprised by Lin Yan's achievement. The two of them naturally understood that the Yi clan would cause trouble even if they were not afraid at all. For such a mid-level clan, it would not be able to do anything big to the Heavenly Dragon sect.
“Why did you kill him young man?” asked the Heavenly Dragon sect master and continued. “I am the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dragon, I hope your explanation will ease your punishment.”
“The boy said that my grandfather and grandmother were disgusting garbage from the village. I didn't accept it and already decided to kill him.” Lin Yan did not retreat at all. Those two old figures were the most precious people in Lin Yan's life. He would not let anyone insult them.
The Master and Grand Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect were sweating on their backs at this moment. They both felt that the Yi clan would be wiped out today when they heard Lin Yan's defense.
“Then you will still be punished for killing a fellow student. Also, the Yi clan will not let you go so easily. You will be hunted by them when you are outside the Heavenly Dragon sect. Also, many disciples were from the Yi clan in this sect. Of course they will all hunt you by all means.” The sect master spoke with a dignified tone at the moment and he did not seem to defend Lin Yan.
“Let them try.” Lin Yan retorted back.
Lin Yan's courage when talking to the two of them made the two of them startled. It was very noticeable that Lin Yan was a domineering child. Lin Yan's attitude strongly reflected that he would never be afraid of anything and submit to something or have fear.
“As expected by senior grandson Lin Ming and Lin Xi.” Inner Master and Grand Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
“Good! You're saying, your punishment right now is to run around the outer wilderness for a hundred rounds, you're gonna clear all the outer wilderness buildings for a month, and you won't get the resources in that one month.” The sect master made the decision to give Lin Yan punishment. It was already quite heavy because the resources for a month were very important for the disciples of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
The Heavenly Dragon Sect's Supreme Elder nodded in agreement with such a hefty punishment for a child. However they had to do it because Lin Xi told them not to treat Lin Yan with specialness.
But it is still special treatment. If it was anyone else, they would naturally hand over the child who killed the young master of the Yi clan to the Yi clan.
Of course the Heavenly Dragon sect master would not give Lin Yan to the Yi clan because the result was the destruction of the Heavenly Dragon sect itself. Until now, the Master and Grand Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect still did not know that Lin Ming and Lin Xi had gone to a very far place.
Even though they got the news that the two mighty figures had left, they still would not want to take the risk. It was certain that one day Lin Ming and Lin Xi would return and when that happened, the Heavenly Dragon sect would have to face the wrath of the two of them in case something happened to Lin Yan.
“Bring the boy to the outer wilderness!” The Heavenly Dragon sect master dismissed the First Elder.
Lin Yan wanted to ask something but the First Elder first took him away.
“Brother, it seems the boy is very special. I don't know what it is, but my instincts say that the child will be something extraordinary in the future.” The Great Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect said his opinion of Lin Yan.
The Heavenly Dragon sect master looked contemplated for a moment. He gave a small nod then said about the thing that made Lin Yan have flaws. “That kid is special. But he must control his anger and the sense of superiority that emanates from him. From the appearance of the child, he would not be willing to give up or submit to something, it could be said that the child had the qualifications of being a king who ruled a territory. But right now he was very weak and the Yi clan would hunt him down. At least we will be able to protect him if we are in the sect. But when he came out.”
“It is none of our business my brother, if we do not intervene will something about him, his safety outside the sect in the future is not our responsibility.” said the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect.
“You're right. Aren't you interested in taking him as a student?” ask the Sect Master of the Heavenly Dragon.
“Do you think I have qualifications?” The Great Elder of the Heavenly Dragon sect chuckled.
The Heavenly Dragon sect master also chuckled because according to them, it was certain that Lin Ming and Lin Xi were Lin Yan's teachers. Naturally the two of them did not have the qualifications to teach Lin Yan because the two of them did not have the same level as Lin Ming and Lin Xi.

The First Elder brought Lin Yan to obtain the identity of becoming an outer wilderness disciple. After taking care of all the things about Lin Yan and bringing him to Lin Yan's new, worn-out-looking residence, the First Elder immediately left.
Lin Yan was currently staring at a building that was easier to say a worn-out hut. Many huts were like that because almost all of the outer wilderness disciples had almost the same residence.
After which, Lin Yan gazed towards the animal skin that was in his hand. It was a punishment he had to endure for a month.
“For the outer wilderness area alone is very wide. One hundred times round will not be finished within a day.” Lin Yan sighed because the first time he entered the sect, he would instantly get a punishment.
Without wasting any time, Lin Yan walked into the hut and took out all the objects for his daily needs. After which, he exited his residence and immediately started running around the outer wilderness region. There would naturally be someone watching him and Lin Yan had found someone who had always followed him at all times.
Lin Yan knew that his punishment was being overseen by someone. He just let it go and kept running to finish the first punishment. Tomorrow he would have to clean up all the places and would definitely interfere with his cultivation.
In the absence of resources, Lin Yan could only feel bitter. His grandfather and grandmother did not leave any resources to him. Only gold and silver coins, many books, weapons and the latter were special objects to create an inscription.
Lin Yan continued to run until it started to get dark. Within half a day, he had only surrounded 40 times the outer wilderness area which signified that the place was very spacious. The figure watching Lin Yan also noted how much Lin Yan ran and then left that place.
With a slightly exhausted body, Lin Yan returned to his residence. He immediately cooked a few dishes because there were so many food ingredients in his space ring. He understood the ring of space that makes time stop in it so that food will not rot.
After finishing eating and cleaning himself, Lin Yan laid his body on the weathered mattress to rest.
“Time to rest. Tired days are waiting for me tomorrow.” Lin Yan simply smiled and clenched his hands. The road to the strongest has begun.
