Zhang Chen was speechless upon hearing these words, watching Xiaodouding bragging in front of him. His lips twitched, but he didn’t debunk him.
"Aren’t you a master of Huajin? That guy is just Dark Force, and he still managed to hit you?" Zhang Chen was taken aback.
"Are you stupid? The so-called force is nothing but a technique that is mastered. If he hits with a punch, of course, I get hurt. Moreover, his height and weight are quite different from mine. I could ambush and break his leg because of my refined control over power, otherwise, I would have suffered today." Chengyu said while handing Zhang Chen the preserved fruits, small packages, and other items:
"Sooner or later, those Law Enforcent Elders will definitely give trouble. You take care of these things for , making sure those old guys won’t confiscate them. I broke Wei Yingwu’s leg for you. Without Wei Yingwu, although a few other senior brothers have developed Dark Force, their mastery isn’t deep. You only need to focus on practicing martial arts, combined with Turtle Fist, and there might be a chance for victory."
Zhang Chen looked at Xiaodouding, the moisture in his hand condensed into an ice block, which he then applied to Xiaodouding’s eye socket.
"Hey, where did you get the ice?" Xiaodouding looked at the ice block in Zhang Chen’s hand, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Zhang Chen patted Xiaodouding’s head: "You’ve broken the rules this ti, involving yourself for a woman unrelated to you; was it worth it?"
"In this world, many things aren’t about worth or not worth; it’s only about doing them or not doing them." Xiaodouding said crisply.
Hearing this, Zhang Chen didn’t know what to say, only uttering: "You acted too recklessly this ti!"
"What’s there to be afraid of! I’m a prodigy disciple in the Daoist Temple. Wei Yingwu is beneath ? At most, it’s just so physical pain!" Xiaodouding’s voice was full of disregard.
It wasn’t long before the Law Enforcent Elder walked in with a grim face, glaring at Chengyu: "Chengyu, you are bold enough to dare to injure a fellow disciple. You have truly defied the laws!"
Behind him was Wei Yingwu, carried on a stretcher, along with several elders who followed him in.
"Elder, please judge wisely. Clearly, it was Wei Yingwu who deliberately teased , got angry after being scolded, and in his fury attempted to attack , which led to breaking his thigh. How is it my fault?" Chengyu imdiately objected upon hearing this, reversing the situation, pointing at the bruised eyes: "All of you elders saw Wei Yingwu’s leg broken, but didn’t know that if I hadn’t mastered Huajin, this eye might have been blinded."
Xiaodouding was indignantly protesting, her voice full of grievance.
Wei Yingwu on the stretcher instantly got agitated upon hearing this, thinking it was blatant nonsense, angrily sitting up from the stretcher, glaring at Xiaodouding: "You little rascal, talking nonsense without sha. I should skin you alive! It was clearly you who sneak attacked out of the blue, breaking my leg without reason. How did I provoke you first?"
"You said yourself, I broke your leg without reason. Since it was without reason, we have no enmity in the past nor feud recently, why would I break your leg?" Chengyu blinked, pointing at the blackened eyes: "Unless my brain has so problem?"
"Who the hell knows which nerve in your head is misaligned! Elders, don’t listen to this little thing’s nonsense and gibberish. This is obviously slander!" Wei Yingwu, getting anxious at this mont, pointed at Xiaodouding, trembling with rage.
Both of them exchanged verbal blows back and forth, leaving the elders unable to distinguish who was at fault for initiating the conflict.
"Enough! Stop arguing!" At this mont, the elder responsible for martial arts stepped out, angrily interrupting their conversation, then glanced at Xiaodouding: "You are lying! If you hadn’t initiated the trouble, why did you go to soone’s morial hall?"
Not waiting for Xiaodouding to reply, the martial arts elder glanced at the Law Enforcent Elder with eyes full of anger: "I suggest heavily punishing Chengyu as a warning to others, whipping her two hundred tis, then putting her to labor for three years."
The Law Enforcent Elder furrowed his brows upon hearing this: "Who was right or wrong between them, there was no third person present at the ti, it’s hard to say clearly. But Wei Yingwu, as a grown man, couldn’t even defeat a five-year-old child. Do you have the face to co and complain? If I were you, I’d find a block of tofu and kill myself."
"I..." Wei Yingwu on the stretcher was flushed red with anger, his chest heaving, his eyes red with fury.
What could he do?
He was helpless too!
Clearly, he was the victim? Yet why did it turn out like this?
"Fellow, it was Chengyu who provoked first, and you don’t reprimand Chengyu, instead you defend her like this?" The martial arts elder’s voice was full of dissatisfaction.
"She’s just a child!" The Law Enforcent Elder looked at Chengyu, thought for a while, then suddenly spoke.
These words made Zhang Chen’s lips twitch, while Wei Yingwu on the stretcher felt his leg hurt even more at this mont.
"We’ll waive the punishnt this ti, a child frightened and acted without restraint. We’ll sentence you to serve in the main hall for a year, it’s a minor punishnt and major warning!" The punishnt elder spoke calmly.
Upon hearing these words, the martial arts elder wanted to say more, but was interrupted by the Law Enforcent Elder: "I have my own considerations, there’s no need for you to persuade any further."
"Elder, I am unconvinced!" Wei Yingwu’s voice was full of grievance; he was the innocent victim, with his leg broken for no reason, how could he face the big competition?
"She’s just a child, and you’re an adult now, don’t you have any magnanimity at all, and still want to settle scores with a child?" The Law Enforcent Elder’s voice was full of disdain: "You couldn’t even beat a child, yet you have the face to co and complain, truly shaless. Her eye was almost blinded, you only broke a leg, it’s not like it can’t be fixed!"
