3 years later
Lin Kai was now a beta-level stage 5 cultivator and was enjoying his life in Underworld sect. He was 18 and was the strongest in his class already. He was in his room chatting with the system when an elder barged in.
"Elder Chu, is there anything that you need?" Lin Kai asked as he was sitting on his bed.
"Yes, you are a role model to your juniors and I see you never support them or anything. Go out and talk to your juniors and make connections with them. I am hoping for you to become the future sect leader in ten years." Elder Chu ordered Lin Kai and Lin Kai didn't hesitate to get up and meet his junior brothers.
After Lin Kai left Elder Chu smiled evilly, "Don't think we don't know who you are, Lin Kai. You are but an inexperienced brat trying to play an adults game." After that, Elder Chu left Lin Kai's dorm and continued with whatever he was doing.
All of the 3 years Lin Kai spent in Underworld sect was driving him insane. Everyone was evil, from the bugs on the floor to the sect master. They attempted brainwashing on all of them, including Lin Kai. Elders would test their evil techniques on students and would report them as missing when they died. He would see kids getting bullied, but for a necessity to fit in, he couldn't do anything. He seen his juniors kill each other over petty money, and other non-valuables. He even seen kids 'prank' other kids by pushing them into lava and killing them and then laugh about it.
The most evil thing he witnessed in there though were the women. They would manipulate all the weak guys as servants and would do the deed with their seniors just for benefits. If a women wanted something in Underworld sect. As long as she was pretty, she got it. But if she was ugly? It was a different story, the guys would cover her face and they would do her until they died. Even out in the open if need be. It was truly an evil place. The only other way Lin Kai could cope with all these besides the system was closing his eyes and his heart.
"At least I was able to sabotage some of there plans. I wonder how Hao Ran and Cheng Li is doing. I wonder what Yu Yan is doing... Don't worry, I'll come for you one day." Lin Kai thought to himself and resolved himself while continuing to heading towards his so called juniors.
"Hey, senior brother! How're you doing today?" A girl went up to Lin Kai and asked him how he was doing while trying to show her cleavage.
When she asked that Lin Kai's killing intent was released. He was driven insane so many times trying to fit in that he accumulated killing intent for every single one of them. If not for the system regaining his insanity every time, he would've been a lost cause.
"Get away from me, SLUT." Lin Kai looked down at the girl and she ran away which scared away the other group of girls that were going to try and flirt with Lin Kai.
Lin Kai then headed toward a big group of juniors and they moved away, making a line for Lin Kai to walk through.
Lin Kai stopped and looked at every single one of them for a second and said, "Call as many of your sect mates as you can, if there isn't at least ten thousand in an hour, your all dead." Lin Kai said as he had his eyes closed and showed no emotion in his face.
They all scurried away looking for sect mates to recruit for Lin Kai. But somewhere in Lin Kai's heart, he was praying for them not to bring enough. In this sect, if your displeased, it is justified to kill them, no matter the number.
Lin Kai waited in a big open space that could fit a hundred thousand people for 3 hours, cultivating and longing to get out of this hell.
40 minutes later, Lin Kai could sense a huge crowd running towards him. He took out the mysterious liquid that he and Hao Ran found in their adventure and paused for a second before adding poison into it and mixing it, blending the color.
In 5 minutes a crowd of over ten thousand people came running towards Lin Kai. Some were scared because they never even talked to Lin Kai before and didn't know why he abruptly called for them. When they finally saw Lin Kai they all got on one knee and greeted their senior brother.
"Senior brother, is there anything we could do for?" This question resounded around the whole area with over ten thousand people saying it.
Lin Kai stared at them with his closed eyes and said, "I've noticed you guys have grown weak, so as a senior brother I need to look out for all of you." Lin Kai walked right next to the basin and continued talking, "This mysterious liquid could help you improve the toughness of your body, it also helps you increase your life expectancy by 5 years every time you soak in it." Lin Kai explained to his juniors. The 5 years increased life expectancy was something he found out later when he was experimenting with it.
When his juniors heard this, they all got excited and jumped into it, only 15 people could fit in it once at a time, so the strongest of them went in first. Cry's of pain and joy could be heard all throughout the day. Lin Kai watched all this with a smile, but unbeknownst to him, a person hidden in space behind him was also smiling.
After the whole day, Lin Kai took back the basin and returned to his home. Lin Kai tried to get some sleep but couldn't shake off this weird feeling that everything he did to try and sabotage the Underworld sect was all for naught. He closed his eyes shut and put the blanket over him. Lin Kai jumped and pulled out a sword when he heard the door get slammed open.
Elder Chu walked in with three other elders who were all in the focus of power stage 3. Elder Chu walked in and said, "Funny, we never taught you any sword techniques." Elder Chu said this while looking at his long nails.
"I keep this on me just in case. I only ever use it for fun." Lin Kai explained to diffuse the situation and avoid any suspicion.
"Oh well, that's great and all. But should the person I put my future hopes on to become the sect master only practice two techniques which he uses to sabotage his sect?" Elder Chu said while walking around Lin Kai's room and picking up random objects and inspecting them.
"I don't know what your talking about." Lin Kai said keeping his head up high directly against Elder Chu and the others that were with him.
"You know, we really care about our talents, so what we do is give them a guard surrounding them 24/7. Oh, you can come out now." Elder Chu seemed like he was talking to no one when all of a sudden space broke right next to Lin Kai and an elder came out of it. The elder landed behind Lin Kai, cutting any hope of Lin Kai escaping.
If Lin Kai attacked behind him, the people in front of him would kill him, if he attacked the people in front of him, he'd get attacked by the elder behind him.
"Explain to me, what did discipline Lin Kai do in his free time?" Elder Chu asked the elder behind Lin Kai.
"He would plant poison bombs around the sect which I would disarm and would give people broken cultivation techniques which would ruin their foundations. Even today, he gave his juniors a body tempering liquid which he filled with poison." The elder behind Lin Kai explained.
"I did all those for experiments, I needed some test subjects, don't I?" Lin Kai explained to the Elders hoping they would take this excuse and leave.
"That's not all, I took your blood when you were sleeping and traced your bloodline to the heaven flower drops sect territory and with a little investigation I found out there was a discipline named Lin Kai in Heavens mountain sect." The elder that was behind Lin Kai explained to everyone.
