Vol.2 – Chapter 99 – I dare not anymore


“Huh?” Di Nvfeng was greatly shocked.

She looked at the golden-haired beast in surprise and asked, “Who was so beastly to harm the golden-haired beast? But… isn’t our beast also a male? This…”

Although she always considered herself to be the most eccentric in Shu Mountain, this incident still seemed too bizarre to her, somewhat challenging her cognition.

“It’s not that kind of bullying.” Chu Liang hurriedly explained, “It was the great-grandson of Elder Danding a few days ago…”

He then recounted the series of “grievances” the golden-haired beast had suffered, including being beaten and smashed by Chen Lingtong, whipped by Liu Qin, and later retaliated by the disciples of Danding Hall. Thanks to the presence of Elder Zhang from Heavenly Strength, they were spared from further trouble.

“If it weren’t for Elder Zhang’s righteous intervention, Master, I really don’t know if I could have seen you again!” Chu Liang said, his eyes welling up with tears.

“Damn it!” Di Nvfeng was furious after hearing the story, “I heard before that the old man had a naughty great-grandson. If we don’t teach him a lesson now, won’t Shu Mountain become notorious because of him!”

Master, is your anger because of the threat to your title?

Chu Liang muttered to himself, then asked, “Master, what should we do?”

“What should we do?” Di Nvfeng looked at him strangely, “Haven’t you worked with me before? Aren’t you familiar with the process?”

“But that’s Elder Danding.” Chu Liang said.

Di Nvfeng waved her hand, “Just watch if I can stand up for you!”

“Master, you must stand up for us!”

Inside the conference hall on the third floor of Danding Hall, Liu Qin and Lu Xun knelt on the ground, crying bitterly.

They had just been beaten up by Zhang Juque and scolded in front of Elder Danding. Although their injuries were not severe, the news would damage their reputation and dignity, which naturally made them feel uncomfortable.

Chen Lingtong was also clinging to Elder Danding’s leg, crying loudly, “Great-grandfather! It hurts so much! You don’t know how Chu Liang bullied me! He let the spirit beast beat me into the sky… twice!”

Elder Danding sat in the hall, his face as dark as water.

In his position, Zhang Juque didn’t give him any face, directly bringing his disciples and great-grandson here for him to scold in person, and wouldn’t leave until he was done.

Naturally, he was extremely angry.

But there was nothing he could do… First of all, Zhang Juque had the backing of Heavenly Strength, which was one of the Nine Heavens of Immortality, possessing the seventh-ranked divine artifact, the Xuanhuang Battle Armor, on the List of Earthly Treasures. Their strength was even above that of Shu Mountain.

Secondly, they were in the right.

His great-grandson was naughty, and his disciple had gone to cause trouble and got caught. These were undeniable facts. Although he didn’t think smashing a spirit beast was a big deal, being caught at the beginning of the incident meant he couldn’t be tough.

He could only scold the younger generation in front of Zhang Juque, hurry to send this great god away, and then close the door to discuss the matter.

He didn’t care about the crying of his two useless disciples, but when his great-grandson started crying, he couldn’t help but feel heartache.

His son and daughter-in-law had both sacrificed themselves for Shu Mountain, leaving only Chen Lingtong as the sole descendant. The child was extremely clever and had always been his darling.

His own child, whom he had never dared to touch a finger since he was a child, was beaten so badly outside. Naturally, Elder Danding was angry. But when he thought that Chu Liang was Di Nvfeng’s disciple, the matter became a bit tricky.

That guy wouldn’t give him any face.

“Enough! Stop crying!” Elder Danding shouted.

The two disciples immediately stopped crying.

Chen Lingtong also paused for a moment, and Elder Danding immediately held the child’s head and said, “Little Tong, don’t cry either. Great-grandfather will definitely not let you be wronged.”

“Then will great-grandfather help me beat him?” Chen Lingtong immediately asked.

“This…” Elder Danding hesitated for a moment, then said, “Great-grandfather is an elder and it’s not appropriate for him to do it. When his master comes back, great-grandfather will take you to seek justice. He must apologize to you, okay?”

“Just apologize? He should at least be beaten and hung on a tree… twice!” Chen Lingtong pouted, ready to start crying again.

Elder Danding was also a bit helpless. With his status, it was absolutely impossible for him to do anything to the younger generation.

At this moment, Lu Xun stood up and said, “Master, why don’t we brothers handle this matter? We have lost your face this time, and we hope to have a chance to make up for it. Let us handle the matters between disciples!”

He guessed that his master’s status made some things impossible, so he volunteered to share his master’s worries.

Elder Danding glared at him and said, “You two get out first!”

Although his tone was not good, he obviously acquiesced.

Lu Xun quickly dragged Liu Qin out of the hall.

The next second, Elder Danding’s face suddenly changed. He quickly stood up and shielded his great-grandson behind him.

There were two loud bangs.

Liu Qin, who had just walked out of the door, flew back at a speed like a thunderbolt, hitting the wall hard. The wall of the hall was cracked, and he was stuck in the wall, curled up like a shrimp.

He was clearly unconscious.

If it weren’t for the excellent material of the walls in the Dan Ding Hall, he might have already crashed through several walls and flown out to the mountains outside.

Next was Lu Xun, who crashed into Liu Qin’s body, and the two of them were embedded in the wall together.

However, perhaps because Liu Qin cushioned him, he was slightly less affected and did not lose consciousness. He could barely open his eyes a little.

He watched as a tall and full-bodied woman, dressed in a fiery red dress, revealing a glimpse of her fair legs under the high slit, walked into the hall.

Following her was a young man in brocade clothes, taking small steps, with a harmless smile on his face.

Chu Liang!

Looking at him, Lu Xun felt a surge of blood rushing to his chest.

This man was definitely a disaster. Since meeting him, everything had gone wrong. Not only had his secret plans failed repeatedly, but he had also been beaten twice in one day…

“Di Nvfeng!” The elder of Dan Ding Hall could not contain his anger and shouted, “You dare to beat my disciple in my Dan Ding Hall!”

“A piece of trash, so what if I beat him?” Di Nvfeng replied lazily.

“Do you want to cause trouble?!”

The elder of Dan Ding Hall’s beard and hair were flying, and he raised his hand to summon a furnace, his aura was intimidating, and it seemed that he was ready to take action at any disagreement!

“Hold on.” Di Nvfeng suddenly waved her hand, “I’m not here to fight with you, I just heard that my disciple and my golden-haired beast were bullied, so I came to seek justice.”

“My disciple was just beaten by Zhang Juque, and you say your disciple was bullied?” The elder of Dan Ding Hall said indignantly.

He had suffered a loss on his side and was thinking about how to take revenge, but she actually came to his door?

This was truly too much!

“What does it have to do with me, Di Nvfeng, if Zhang Juque did the beating?” Di Nvfeng looked puzzled, “Isn’t it less painful if I do the beating myself?”

As she spoke, her gaze fell on Chen Lingtong, who was still protected behind the elder of Dan Ding Hall and was still poking his little head out. She suddenly smiled, “So it was you who threw the stone at my beast?”

With this smile, a hint of ferocity suddenly flashed in her originally lazy eyes.

Ah…

Chen Lingtong probably experienced this kind of extreme fear, like falling into the hell of the underworld, for the first time since he was born. His expression suddenly froze, and his face turned pale.

As if he was scared silly.

A moment later, he regained consciousness, his eyes wide with fear, he opened his mouth and cried out, “I was wrong! I will never throw stones at spirit beasts again!”

“Grandpa Zeng, save me!”

“Wah——”
