The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly

Chapter 426: Chapter 187: Second Entry into the Martial World (Part 7)_3

Wenren Jie glanced at the servants sprawled all over the ground, seething with silent rage.

He would have charged head-on into a ferocious battle with He Tiantian, but he dreaded her ”poison.”

A pure contest of martial skills didn’t scare him! Even if Pei Jinghou himself had come, he could have fought three hundred rounds.

But poison, that he truly feared.

And now, with Zi Yi, his most skilled poison user, defeated, Wenren Jie felt even less confident.

He was a noble prince, with grand ambitions to vie for supremacy over the world; he could not afford to capsize in the small pond of the Itinerant World!

Nevertheless, before leaving, he didn’t forget to sow a few seeds of discord.

Unfortunately, everyone in Beggar Gang was elated by He Tiantian’s ”victory,” paying no heed to his words.

”What a feat Heroine He Yutian has achieved once again. And this time, the merit is genuine, exactly what the Beggar Gang urgently needs!”

Gongsun He thought to himself, suddenly feeling a premonition of ”the tide has turned.”

And the fatal blow was still to come.

He Tiantian returned to the Beggar Gang assembly scene, her gaze sweeping over the myriad disciples, the three elders, and several squad leaders.

She said earnestly, ”If I am elected Beggar Gang Leader, I will also select disciples with good qualifications from among many, and personally teach them Dragon Subduing Palm!”

Now the elders were unsettled, ”What? You know Dragon Subduing Palm too?”

The reason for the Beggar Gang’s awkward predicament was that Old Sect Leader Guo Shengqing had suddenly passed away without leaving a direct disciple.

The Beggar Gang’s secret techniques, Dragon Subduing Palm, and Dog Beating Stick Technique, were traditionally passed down orally from Sect Leader to Sect Leader.

With Guo Shengqing’s abrupt death, the Beggar Gang’s secret techniques were severed.

Inside the Beggar Gang itself, no one knew the complete Dragon Subduing Palm and Dog Beating Stick Technique.

This was a ridiculous oversight for the world’s largest sect.

Wenren Jie, the Master of Carefree Pavilion, dared to vie for the position of Beggar Gang Leader simply because he knew a few moves of Dragon Subduing Palm and shared a ”half-master” relationship with Old Sect Leader Guo.

If He Tiantian hadn’t appeared, coupled with Gongsun He’s scheming, the elders might have had to submit to reality.

But now, He Tiantian informed everyone in the Beggar Gang—

I know the thirty-six forms of Dog Beating Stick Technique!

The overpowering might of Dragon Subduing Palm, I know that too!

I can also choose disciples from among us, and pass on the Beggar Gang’s secret techniques to them.

”Of course I do! The Divine Beggar I met in my dreams is one of the Grandmasters of the Beggar Gang. Aware of the great disaster facing the Beggar Gang, he specifically passed on both secret skills to me!”

”I, as a woman, may not be entirely suited to cultivate Dragon Subduing Palm. But we have tens of thousands of disciples in the Beggar Gang, among whom many are incredibly talented.”

”As long as I become the Gang Leader, I’m willing to choose the most outstanding disciple and impart the Dragon Subduing Palm to him.”

”Moreover, there’s the full set of Dog Beating Stick Technique; I can pass the moves on to all disciples, and, as for the mental method, once I’ve chosen a disciple, I’ll teach it all!”

If the three elders still harbored reservations about this ”Poison Spider” before, at this moment, there was not a single doubt left in anyone’s mind about her becoming the leader of the Beggar Gang.

So what if a woman becomes Gang Leader?

This woman received teachings from the Divine Beggar in her dreams, holds the two great secret skills of the Beggar Gang, and is also willing to take disciples.

In no time, the position of Beggar Gang Leader would pass into the hands of a bona fide Beggar Gang Disciple!

The legacy of the Beggar Gang wouldn’t end here!

Moreover, the elders had personally witnessed He Tiantian repelling the ambitious intruder, Master of Carefree Pavilion, maintaining the world’s largest sect’s dignity and face!

This act alone had established great merit for Heroine He.

... Considering various factors, the elders suddenly found the idea of Heroine He becoming the Gang Leader to be quite appealing.

Gongsun He: ...I knew it would come to this!

Seeing he truly had no power to overturn the situation, Gongsun He feigned righteous indignation, ”Our Beggar Gang is the world’s largest sect, with tens of thousands of disciples. How can we submit to a woman?”

”If the Grandmaster knew of this, he would surely blame us, his descendants, for our incompetence.”

”Here and now, I, Gongsun He, declare solemnly: as long as He Yutian, this vile woman, remains in the Beggar Gang, I, Gongsun He, shall never return!”

Gongsun He’s loyal followers also started to make a commotion.

And indeed, gender discrimination had more of a market in ancient times.

Even in the unconventional Itinerant World, there were old-fashioned sticklers who would not accept a woman’s leadership.

Gongsun He’s rhetoric indeed swayed a small faction.

He took this group and left the Beggar Gang to establish a so-called ”New Beggar Gang.”
