The sound of a fall echoed, and the dicine Immortal Old Man lay awkwardly on the ground!
Zhuge Manman saw this, and her little face was filled with guilt. She quickly hid behind Zuoqiu Yuanyuan, her innocent big eyes looking timidly...
"My old butt!"
Falling on the ground, the dicine Immortal Old Man ca to his senses and couldn’t help but wail...
"Wham!"
"Soone! Beat him for , make his butt bloom, make him roll in pain!"
The Dragon Head Cane struck the ground as Old Lady Zuoqiu waved her hand, ordering her juniors behind her.
"Yes!"
In the next mont, the Zuoqiu Family juniors, who were already holding clubs and ready, charged with a fierce attitude!
"Grandma! Have rcy! I’m Wu Xi! I’m the Little Witch..."
"Wham!"
"Smack!"
"Wham!"
"..."
Amidst the chaos of sticks, the dicine Immortal Old Man dodged awkwardly while clutching his head, repeatedly begging for rcy.
"Who’s your grandma? Who knows you, Little Witch! Beat him! Beat him to death!"
If the dicine Immortal Old Man hadn’t spoken, it would have been better, but as soon as he opened his mouth, it infuriated Old Lady Zuoqiu. Recalling her poor granddaughter whom she never saw again, Old Lady Zuoqiu’s heart ached!
If she doesn’t beat the person who took her granddaughter, who else would she beat?
The juniors of the Zuoqiu Family naturally knew that they once had an aunt who was taken away by the person in front of them — the dicine Immortal in the eyes of the world. Since then, their Ancestral Granny had never smiled again!
Therefore, they attacked without hesitation, and the sticks in their hands rcilessly swung at the dicine Immortal Old Man!
Having already lost face with Old Lady Zuoqiu, let alone resisting, the beating the dicine Immortal Old Man took was solid. However, it wasn’t his first ti being beaten, so he was quite adept at exploiting gaps. Seizing an opportunity while Old Lady Zuoqiu was listing his past sins, he slipped away amidst the chaos!
"You rascal! Just you wait, every ti my old lady sees you, she’ll beat you up!"
Seeing the dicine Immortal Old Man escape, Old Lady Zuoqiu was still not satisfied, and her Dragon Head Cane thunderously knocked as she yelled at his retreating figure!
The already embarrassing dicine Immortal Old Man beca even more pitiful!
His hair was like straw, his legs bruised and limping. Though he protected his head, a stick had still landed on his face, leaving a swelling that looked like he was holding a bun in his mouth...
"Hiss!"
He gasped in pain, holding his swollen face while limping towards the City Lord’s Mansion, cursing as he walked, "Which brat was it that struck so accurately? If I catch him, I’ll surely return the favor with a stick. Oh, my face, how will I face people tomorrow..."
At the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion, the guards were the sa batch previously swept aside by the dicine Immortal Old Man. So, when the guards, who had just been tornted by the dicine Immortal Old Man, saw him returning after being beaten, you can imagine their expressions...
Every one of them could fit an egg in their mouths, and there was no concealing their schadenfreude in their eyes...
They weren’t fools. After the dicine Immortal Old Man was welcod into the City Lord’s Mansion, they soon after learned his identity...
Losing to dical Immortal Wu Xi, they suddenly felt relieved!
However, seeing the disgraced dicine Immortal, they still couldn’t hide their taking pleasure in it...
You are incredible!
Bullying us like we’re nothing!
But didn’t you get beaten all the sa?
Look at that swollen old face, practically blooming with bruises!
Compared to us, wasn’t that even worse?
We must see him off!
It’s a must to see him off! And savor the embarrassnt of dical Immortal Wu Xi!
The guards at the City Lord’s Mansion instantly felt they could sleep well once they were off duty, feeling balanced, weren’t they?
Naturally, the dicine Immortal Old Man was unaware of the guards’ thoughts. If he knew, he might prefer to hide in a haystack for a while rather than return to the City Lord’s Mansion!
The disgrace, it’s unmatched!
The dicine Immortal Old Man’s identity was no longer a secret after his commotion at the City Lord’s Mansion, so upon his return, although the palace maid regarded his appearance with curiosity, she still dutifully arranged for him a fine guest room to rest!
However, this night, many were destined to be sleepless!
For tomorrow was the semi-finals of the Nirvana Martial Contest!
The dicine Immortal Old Man winced at the thought of the semi-finals of the Nirvana Martial Contest!
Just his own unworthy apprentice, entering the Nirvana Martial Contest, isn’t it just a matter of getting beaten?
What to do about this?
Watching his own disciple walk into trouble? As this protective master, he felt a bit uneasy.
But if he didn’t let his own disciple suffer a bit, well, she kind of brought this trouble upon herself. If she hadn’t pushed the Hidden World Clan so hard, they wouldn’t have brought out all their hidden dogs, right?
This is truly a case of "you reap what you sow"!
The dical Immortal Old Man thought that early tomorrow morning, it might be best to just go over and give his unworthy disciple a good knock to the head with a hamr, and that would be the end of it. He wouldn’t have to worry anymore!
After all, it’s just a small loss of face; losing on the contest stage would be even more embarrassing, wouldn’t it?
Hmm!
That settles it!
So, after washing up, the dical Immortal Old Man went to bed hugging a door bolt. However, as he lay there, his swollen old face twitched with pain every now and then!
He even had his things ready for tomorrow morning. He’d see Gu Changsheng and give her a good knock with the door bolt, and then the Nirvana Martial Contest would have nothing to do with them anymore!
The dical Immortal Old Man’s plan was good, indeed a good way to solve the problem. However, things often have unexpected twists...
For instance, when the dical Immortal Old Man woke up amidst a commotion and went to find his disciple clutching the door bolt, he found her sleeping soundly like a pig, showing no sign of waking up. The dical Immortal Old Man was imdiately displeased!
This...
He prepared the door bolt for nothing?
How could that be?
"This unworthy little brat, has she decided to just sleep through the Nirvana Martial Contest semifinals like this?" the dical Immortal Old Man stood by Gu Changsheng’s bed, grinding his teeth in frustration as he held the door bolt.
"Senior, actually this is for the best!" Borjigin Nian, upon hearing this, thought for a mont and said, "We were worried she would wake up and insist on participating in the Nirvana Martial Contest, and if she lost too badly, she’d be sad and disappointed. Look, isn’t this more convenient?"
To be honest, this was their concern, so they got up early and blocked Gu Changsheng’s door, worried she might actually head to the semifinals of the Nirvana Martial Contest!
To face off against the Primordial Transformative Realm experts?
Co on, there’s not a sliver of hope of winning!
Although they knew Gu Changsheng wouldn’t give up easily, they couldn’t bear to see her suffer a crushing defeat!
Everyone standing beside Borjigin Nian nodded in agreent at his words.
This way, it’s actually quite good.
Gu Changsheng practiced endlessly until she was utterly exhausted, sleeping right through the Nirvana Martial Contest, leaving no room for her to complain, right?
"No way! We can’t let her just sleep through it! Soone, bring a basin of water!"
However, the dical Immortal Old Man was not happy about it. He waved his old hand and called out to the palace maids outside the inner chamber.
Everyone was instantly puzzled by this.
It was Borjigin Nian who first, astonished, asked, "Uh, senior, what are you going to do?"
"Wake her up with a splash!" the dical Immortal Old Man gritted his teeth and said.
Hearing this, everyone simultaneously twitched their lips almost imperceptibly.
"I can’t let my door bolt go to waste, right? Once we splash her awake, I’ll knock her out with the door bolt, and if people start probing into it later, all they can say is that I stopped her from participating in the Nirvana Martial Contest semifinals, not that she chickened out!"
The dical Immortal Old Man tossed the door bolt in his hand, speaking with a calculating face.
The listeners looked at each other, secretly thinking, wow, that’s a good excuse, and it instantly made the dical Immortal Old Man the one swinging the door bolt carry the bla!
Is there even a master as good as this one in the world?
You probably couldn’t find another even with a lantern!
So, everyone present tacitly agreed with the dical Immortal Old Man’s decision and even gave him a thumbs-up!
High!
This move is brilliant!
The dical Immortal Old Man, with his face swollen like a pig’s head, thoroughly enjoyed the admiring gazes from the crowd!
Finally, with everyone’s tacit approval, a basin of well-chilled water was carefully brought in by the palace maid, as the dical Immortal Old Man specifically requested it, claiming that well-chilled water clears the mind!
The water was brought in, but the palace maid standing by Gu Changsheng’s bed didn’t dare to act.
The dical Immortal Old Man, clutching the door bolt, gave her a prompting look!
The Little Palace Maid shook her head, timidly saying, "Sir, this maid is timid, I don’t dare to splash..."
Are you kidding!
Splashing the Southern Emperor with water all over her head and face, if the Southern Emperor looks into it later, wouldn’t our City Lord strip bare?
No way am I doing this!
Upon hearing this, the dical Immortal Old Man got angry, glared at the palace maid, threw the door bolt to the ground, and with a look of wrath received the basin of water, grumbling dissatisfiedly, "What are you afraid of? With here, can that little brat do anything to you? Hmph!"
The dical Immortal Old Man’s scolding made the little palace maid terribly uncomfortable, and she retreated quietly, bending at the waist!
anwhile, everyone, seeing the dical Immortal Old Man holding the basin of water, thinking about the well-chilled water inside, couldn’t help but feel a chill for Gu Changsheng, and were unable to watch, they all closed their eyes...
