Having spent decades in the Six Gods, how could the old undying not understand the intricate complexities? Today, Liu Chu was clearly giving him a hard ti on purpose!
However, the old undying never thought of slapping Liu Chu across the face.
The reason is simple, for Xu Fan!
Liu Chu is rely in charge of assessnts and typically has nothing to do with the old undying. Why would he dare to act arrogant towards him? But now, Liu Chu deliberately made things difficult for the old undying, loudly reprimanding him, yet the old undying could only endure it with a smile.
Xu Fan's matter is extrely urgent. The difference between the Taoists not having acted officially and their acting officially is vast! Once they make a formal move, even if Xu Fan passes the assessnt, the Six Gods might not dare to accept him!
At that ti, everything would truly be over!
That's why when the decision to endure was made by the old undying, he was taken aback when he heard the sound of a slap.
Similarly, Liu Chu was also dumbfounded at this mont because that crisp sound of a slap landed right on her face!
Today, Liu Chu had already seized the old undying! Despite being a core mber with high prestige in the Six Gods, only needing an opportunity to officially step into the upper echelons and beco a real sovereign, the old undying, who had always been shrewd, suddenly showed a flaw today, forcing the organization to perform an early assessnt to let his disciple join the Six Gods by threatening to leave the group!
If not for the upper managent considering the old undying's many years of service and high prestige, how could they have agreed to such conditions? But even if they did, the old undying's favors with the higher-ups would have been exhausted!
And this provided an opportunity for his enemies!
Though Liu Chu bore no grudge against the old undying, he unfortunately stood in soone's way! Such a rare opportunity, who would let it slip? A conspiracy, like a vast web, had long been set.
Liu Chu was the first checkpoint in this web!
As long as Liu Chu firmly blocked the old undying, he would be in a disgraceful state, thoroughly embarrassed!
But Liu Chu never expected that before seeing the old undying's disgrace, she would suddenly get slapped!
"Li Nantian! How dare you lay hands on inside the base!"
Banging the table, Liu Chu stood up angrily, looking as if she wanted to devour the old undying alive.
"I didn't hit you, I hadn't even managed to make a move..."
The old undying's words further infuriated Liu Chu, with her sharp, enraged voice seeming to pierce people's eardrums, "You hadn't managed to make a move, so you were planning to hit ?"
"Good for you, Li Nantian! Disregarding rules and regulations, openly attacking a colleague within the base! Even if I report this to the higher-ups today, I will seek justice!"
Seeing Liu Chu in a shrewish manner, the old undying was exasperated, continuously saying, "Liu Chu, don't be impulsive, it's all a misunderstanding..."
How could the old undying not know Liu Chu was targeting him? But even so, risking loss of face and exhausting the little favor he had left with higher-ups, he was determined to resolve the matter regarding Xu Fan.
However, with Xu Fan's single slap, the old undying's heart turned cold...
The old undying knew long ago that Xu Fan had a knack for getting into trouble, but never expected that within two sentences inside the Six Gods, Xu Fan would cause big trouble again!
Xu Fan is, after all, the old undying's disciple, and this is not the ti to bla Xu Fan, so the old undying had to divert Liu Chu's attention to himself, fiercely glaring at Xu Fan to stop him from acting again.
If Liu Chu found out it was Xu Fan who slapped her, Xu Fan might never join the Six Gods in his lifeti...
"Misunderstanding? Fine! Li Nantian! You're sothing!"
Liu Chu panted heavily, trying hard to calm down, but unable to.
"Since you're so capable, not even caring about the organization's rules, why don't you just kill !"
At this mont, Liu Chu seed to have hit the old undying's Achilles' heel! Either the old undying apologized, and Liu Chu would call in others to disgrace him completely, or the old undying lost control, consud by anger, which was precisely what Liu Chu wanted to see.
If the old undying acted, though Liu Chu was no match, she could delay for a mont and those prepared could rush out and seize him! The old undying would be utterly disgraced!
This was a ticulously planned net, without a flaw!
Sure enough, the old undying's face turned ugly.
Previously, the old undying was puzzled by Liu Chu's repeated targeting despite no grudges between them, but seeing the situation now, he could naturally guess it was a long-standing sche!
What truly troubled the old undying was that the other side just happened to catch his Achilles' heel, leaving him unable to advance or retreat!
"Liu Chu, indeed I was wrong earlier. How do you think this matter can be settled today?"
Gritting his teeth, the old undying finally chose to surrender. He would not allow Xu Fan's crucial life and death matter to fail!
"Li Nantian, you were pretty tough just now, weren't you? How co you're backing down now?"
Liu Chu looked at the old undying with disdain, her sharp voice carrying a heavy tone of humiliating sarcasm, "Want to let it go? Simple, kneel and apologize to , maybe I'll forgive you."
Everything today was predestined, the only exception being the earlier slap. But no matter how the old undying struggled, he couldn't escape the ensnaring web.
Without that slap, Liu Chu might not have been so ruthless, but now, she wanted to intensify her efforts, venting her anger on the old undying a hundredfold!
The old undying's face was as ugly as it could be.
In front of his disciple, to kneel to Liu Chu, whose cultivation level was far inferior, how could the old undying possibly accept that?
But if he didn't, Xu Fan would have to perish!
The agony and turmoil did not keep the old undying indecisive for long; almost instantly, he made a decision. He could not kneel, but he certainly couldn't lose Xu Fan, his disciple!
"Fine, I'll kneel! But afterward, you must agree to let my disciple take the assessnt!"
The old undying's voice was calm as if he were speaking about a trivial matter, but within that calmness, there was a powerful and resolute force.
"Hehe, well then let's see how sincere your apology is, whether it will move ."
Liu Chu's swollen cheek had a smile, but it wasn't a pleasant one; instead, it appeared sinister, like a viper!
