Chapter 627: Bruised and Battered
What Ye Xun shook out was indeed a bombshell news, allowing some cultivators who had never seen the sinister face of the Old School Society with their own eyes to truly experience it.
Working for the same organization, the higher-ups of the Old School Society actually wanted the capital’s cultivators to go and seize resources even at the most severe time of the Northleap disaster.
It was truly shocking.
“I think that old guy is lying, how could the Old School Society do such a thing!”
“Are you stupid? Open your eyes and take a good look at the reactions of those bigwigs in the Old School Society!”
“Still too young, even Miss Haitang dared not refute what Ye Xun said, do you think this matter could be a lie?”
…
The discussions continued, eventually letting everyone know one fact.
What Ye Xun said was true!
After all, as long as one had clear eyes, they could see through the tricks of those big shots in the Old School Society.
“Friends, ever since Old School Society became the dominant force, they have clearly forgotten their original intentions, first betraying the determination to support the cultivation world of this country. We must unite and not let them continue to corrupt the martial arts world!”
Seeing this as a great opportunity, Yang Tiancai immediately started to persuade the indignant cultivators.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Seeing his move, Hai Shengyun couldn’t help but feel furious and sarcastically said, “You’re just an alchemy cultivator, what qualifications do you have to speak here?”
Yang Tiancai raised an eyebrow and retorted immediately, “And you’re just a lackey, do you have the right to look down on me?”
Upon hearing this, Hai Shengyun’s beard almost stood up in anger.
After all, he was at least a branch head, and being called a lackey like that was unbearable.
“Daredevil, have the guts to fight me to the death!”
Knowing that he was no match for Hai Shengyun, Yang Tiancai was quick to run towards the first arena and stood behind Xiao Shun, looking aggrieved as he said, “Master, this old man wants to bully the weak, you must speak up for me!”
Seeing this, Xiao Shun smiled bitterly, wondering why he had taken such a troublemaker as a disciple!
Regardless of whether the disciple was vulgar or not, someone wanting to bully his disciple meant they had to go through him first.
So, he gestured to the raging Hai Shengyun below.
“Mr. Hai, let me learn your skills, come up on stage for a battle!”
Upon hearing this, Hai Shengyun was frightened and took a step back, muttering four resentful words.
“Shameless!”
Suddenly, Song Linger, who was originally sitting on the second stage, lightly moved towards Xiao Shun and calmly smiled at Hai Shengyun below.
“Since Mr. Hai doesn’t want to challenge my master, how about having a small competition with a little lady like myself?”
Seeing this, Yang Tiancai had a mischievous smile on his face, as he glared fiercely at Hai Shengyun, then patted Song Linger on the back, whispering softly.
“Sister, beat the crap out of him for me. This old guy wanted to bully you, a handsome, smart, caring and warm brother. It’s just disrespectful to you and our master!”
“Too much!”
Hai Shengyun couldn’t hold back anymore. So, you three are scheming against me?
Fine, since I can’t beat your master, I’m not afraid of dealing with a few disciples!
Frustrated, Hai Shengyun roared and rushed towards the edge of the arena, looking vengeful.
But before he could take two steps, Haitang reached out and pulled him back.
“Miss Haitang, let go of me, today I will make those bastards suffer!”
Hai Shengyun said bitterly to the expressionless Haitang.
Haitang slowly shook her head and comforted him, “Don’t be impulsive, once you go up there, you won’t be able to come back.”
“I can’t control that many things!” Hai Shengyun’s face turned red as he spoke loudly.
With that, he ignored Haitang beside him and directly jumped onto the stage, roaring, “Little girl, I want to see how long you can be arrogant!”
Seeing this, Song Linger smirked cunningly, even winking at her fellow disciple, Yang Tiancai, on the side.
Yang Tiancai chuckled and winked back.
Xiao Shun touched his nose and couldn’t help but recall the story of the Seven Imps saving their grandfather.
The following events involving Hai Shengyun and the Old School Society’s hierarchy were undoubtedly very tragic.
In this story, Mr. Hai turned into the grandfather, and the rest of the Old School Society’s hierarchy were the Seven Imps.
The story was full of drama, but it was indeed real.
With her personal strength, Song Linger defeated the group of Old School Society’s hierarchy who came to challenge her, showcasing the New School Society’s superior strength in front of the other cultivators.
While the leaders and Song Linger were battling on stage, one of the Old School Society’s hierarchy walked up to Haitang.
Looking at the visibly losing battle, this person said anxiously, “Miss Haitang, if you don’t intervene, we will truly be bruised and battered!”
“Ever since Mr. Hai went up on stage, this has been the predetermined outcome,” Haitang said helplessly.
The current situation was something she alone could not save.
She had long seen that Xiao Shun’s two disciples were setting a trap for the Old School Society’s people, just waiting for her group to take the bait.
Hai Shengyun’s appearance on stage undoubtedly gave Song Linger a great opportunity to shine brightly.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, a scream rang out from the stage.
Shortly after, the leader with a face full of unwillingness fell to the ground under the platform.
It was clear that Song Linger had once again won this challenge.
Facing eight high-ranking members of the Old School Society alone and not tasting defeat once!
Even including the Old School Society’s elders like Hai Shengyun, it was undeniable how talented Xiao Shun as a master was.
Xiao Shun appeared next to Haitang without her noticing, smiling gently.
“Miss Haitang, care to spar with me?”
“Not interested,” Haitang replied without hesitation.
“Ah, what a pity,” Xiao Shun said disappointedly as he shook his head.
Haitang looked at him deeply, helplessly saying, “Your goal has been achieved, I believe that the cultivators who come to participate in the inaugural ceremony tomorrow will definitely not be few in number.”
“It is still somewhat different from the situation I had in mind.”
Xiao Shun glanced meaningfully at Haitang.
“In fact, I had planned to defeat two Tiantai envoys here today, but Miss Haitang did not give me that opportunity.”
Hearing this, Haitang smiled.
“I know, that’s why I have been holding back.”
Xiao Shun continued, “You are the only one among the Old School Society group today who hasn’t gained anything from this, in some aspects, I think you are far scarier than Bai Yiru.”
“It seems you have a high opinion of me.”
“No, it’s my intuition telling me that I should always be wary of you.”
Xiao Shun squinted his eyes, smiling ambiguously.
