Once Master Nine Calamities said that, Xiao Lin shook.
However, he got a grip on himself in the next instant.
He then unexpectedly asked "Master, hope you mind if I suggest that we carry out the operation in the evening? Like when the sun has gone down?"
Master Nine Calamities look at Xiao Lin with a deeply puzzled expression in his face. Then he asked "Why should we go in the evening?"
"Because I feel that the evening is best. You know, the blinding rays of the glaring sun would affect our eyesight during the day, lowering our performance." Xiao Lin said while Master Nine Calamities broke into a loud raucous laughter.
Hahahaha!!
"Boy, no matter the weather condition, we cultivators can operate in any. We aren't mortals that will suffer from the blinding brilliance of the brightly gleaming sun in the day." Master Nine Calamities said.
Xiao Lin nodded his head.
He then began to think of what next to say to convince the leader of the bandits.
"Actually Master, why I suggested that we shouldn't go in the day but in the evening was because of me. When I was brought into this world, I came with an extremely rare body condition that causes me to suffer whenever I enter the sun."
"I will suddenly develop this unbearable hotness within me whenever I come under the sun, making me uncomfortable and lowering my battle prowess in the process. Also, it makes me feel extremely lightheaded, like only my head is actually floating. These feelings that I would feel will drastically lower by combat prowess" Xiao Lin said
Master Nine Calamities looked at Xiao Lin with an intensely surprised expression in his face.
"Hmm. What kind of appalling skin condition is that? And since you became a cultivator, why didn't it disappear? The thing is, every sicknesses, diseases or illnesses that a mortal suffers would immediately vanish when they become a cultivator. So I am extremely surprised that yours didn't leave or lessen in strength" He said with deep astonishment in his eyes.

"Well, my mother who gave birth to me in the night in a particular forest since our place was attacked and razed down by some evil marauders, said that when she gave birth to me there, a mysterious, white-haired old man that had the air of a powerful expert flow around him, appeared to her and said that I had a terrible skin condition which would make me to suffer whenever I enter the sun, and then develop greatly agonizing pains if i stay longer under it."
"He then said further that the only way to lower the effects of this terrible condition of mine was to become a cultivator, then that the only way to fully erase it off was to become a high-level one, before the disease would eventually disappear, since at that time, the Spiritual Energy that I had cultivated to a great level would tackle the condition that I was born with and destroy the root cause of it by purging my body totally free of all forms of accumulated environmental negative energies, filths, toxins and illness-causing foreign particles." Xiao Lin said with an unchanging solemn countenance in his face, and a calm rhythmic pattern of his heartbeat as he tried his possible best to smoothly convince Master Nine Calamities.
"Hmm." Master Nine Calamities uttered and then shook his head with a piteous expression in his face. He was actually feeling pity for Xiao Lin because of what he said.
"Just as soon as you were brought into this world, you came with a devastating body condition. Well, I believe that it would totally disappear someday if you can train yourself to reach a high stage in your cultivation, right?" Master Nine Calamities said and then asked.
"Yes, Master" Xiao Lin nodded his head.
Then gazing at Xiao Lin, he asked with a curious look in his eyes "Is it that condition that you spoke about that is responsible for the extreme sickly paleness of your skin?"

"Yes, Master Nine Calamities" Xiao Lin replied with a nod.
"Hmm. Alright." Master Nine Calamities said.
He then spoke further by saying "Well, I can't cancel or shift my raiding plan because of you. I only wanted to add you to the thirty-five bandits team that I assembled together to go break into some Treasure Houses in a particular street to steal a rumored, broken heaven-grade Spiritual Artifact for me"
"But since you wouldn't be able to go due to your rare body condition and will only become a liability to them if you are allowed to move with them, you can stay behind and cultivate. Then maybe when I have some mission another time that requires evening operation, I will let you go."
"Okay Master" Xiao Lin said with a nod of his head.
"If that would be all Master, can I return to my room?" Xiao Lin asked.
Nine Calamities nodded his head.
"Yea, you can go back to your room" He answered.
Xiao Lin then turned around and headed towards the door to leave Nine Calamities's room.
As soon as he came out and closed the door behind him, Xiao Lin heavily exhaled.
'Wow. That was really close.' He said within himself.
He then broke a smile in his face as he headed for his room.
But on his way, he came across someone that looked at him with an unrestrained murderous gaze in his eyes. Then he felt that for him to meet this person exuding a sinister aura from his body here, perhaps the person had been waiting for him to come out of Master Nine Calamities's room. Then when he looked at the person's cultivation stage, he saw that the person was in the Half-Step Mortal Spiritual stage.
"No wonder you have the boldness to come and stand before me because you think you have a cultivation stage that's higher than my own." Xiao Lin said with an indifferent smile hung on his lips.
"And I can see that you don't have any respect for even your cultivation seniors" The person replied with a heavy tone in his voice.
Then before Xiao Lin could speak, the person who was looking at Xiao Lin's pale-colored skin said with a wicked smile surfacing in his face "Anyways, why I waited around here for you freak to appear is to tell you that your days in this place are numbered, since you think that you can fearlessly and arrogantly act unbridled in this place. If you won't submit to us, your seniors in this place, then be prepared to live a torturous life before dying a sudden, cold gruesome death."
Xiao Lin who totally understood that he would quickly make many enemies here ever since he destroyed Deathwind's fist, only smiled inwardly at what this person before him said.
Then before the person could turn around to leave, Xiao Lin calmly said with a mischievous and sinister smile appearing in his face "My days here are numbered? It sounds to me more like you came here to tell me that your days in this place are numbered. Haha! Well, don't worry yourself too much about that, I will see what I can do about it. Just know that soon, you should find yourself six feet under the ground."
Xiao Lin then walked past the side of the greatly dumbfounded person to head back to his room and carry out what he had in mind.

On the second jump, Claire's bad leg gave way and she felt herself tumbling forward. A cry of surprise escaped her and Claire was certain she was about to topple off the side of the train. Alek, however, moved quickly, catching her mid-fall and keeping her upright, and alive. Claire lifted her eyes to meet his which were wide with alarm. The expression was fleeting, lasting for only a moment before it was replaced by a frown. "You could have fallen," he said pointedly."I know," Claire breathed, finding her thoughts drifting to the strong arm wrapped around her waist. A flush rose to her cheeks and she was grateful for the biting wind that masked her reaction. "Thank you.""You need to be more careful," he continued, his eyes locked on hers, bright and haunting in the silver glow of the moon overhead."I will," Claire assured him, her heart skipping in her chest.
