Inside the Exquisite Pagoda.
Xiao Yang was still in the middle of his assessment. He was in a good mood after putting away the materials and didn't mind waiting for a while.
A cup of tea's worth of time passed.
A voice announcing Xiao Du 'er's failure came from the Exquisite Pagoda.
Immediately after, one could see Xiao Du 'er being forced away from the light sphere as an arm-sized thunderbolt attacked him.
"Ah!"
Xiao Du 'er was struck by the thunderbolt and let out a blood-curdling scream. His chest was blasted into a bloody mess as blood flowed out.
His face was pale and full of unwillingness. He was just a little bit away from breaking through the ninth floor. Just a little bit.
But so what if he was on the verge of success? As long as he didn't succeed, it was still a failure.
It was like you were one step away from your goal, but as long as you didn't take that step, you would be the same as someone standing at the starting point, a failure.
Xiao Du 'er's breathing was heavy as he felt the injuries on his body. At least, it wasn't as miserable as Xiao Du' er's.
He hurriedly circulated his cultivation and began to heal his injuries. After a while, his complexion looked a little better.
He glanced around and saw that the gambling money he had taken out before was gone. Xiao Yang was still standing there with his arms crossed, looking at him with a smile that wasn't a smile.
Xiao Du 'er felt ashamed and angry. He didn't expect that he would lose to his new assistant, Xiao Yang. He also didn't expect Xiao Yang to be safe and sound. Obviously, Xiao Yang had broken through the ninth floor and was on a different level from him. His status was much higher than his.
Every assistant knew that as long as they broke through the ninth floor of the Exquisite Pagoda, they could become a Senior Assistant.
Now, Xiao Yang was a Senior Assistant while he was still an assistant.
He felt a great sense of frustration as his face was filled with loneliness and helplessness. A latecomer was promoted to Senior Assistant before him. This made him feel like he had nowhere to put his old face.
Xiao Du 'er couldn't say anything to Xiao Yang and had to carefully look at Xiao Yang's face.
"Assistant Xiao, I admit my loss. I will no longer participate in the matter between you and Xiao Du'er. I apologize to you again for the trouble I caused you before. If you need any help, feel free to look for me. I will do my best."
Xiao Du 'er knew that the current Xiao Yang wasn't someone he could afford to provoke. He quickly found his position and played the role of a subordinate, tactfully retreating.
"Hmm, your character is barely passable. Go ahead," Xiao Yang said faintly.
For example, Xiao Yang didn't mind using his authority and strength to teach him how to behave. However, since the other party knew how to compromise, there was no need for him to continue to incur the jealousy of others. It was better for everyone to take a step back.
Xiao Du 'er said his goodbyes and used his movement technique to leave the area.
After leaving the Linglong Tower, he didn't greet the other assistants and directly left the Linglong Tower.
As for the assistants near the Linglong Tower, if they knew what was good for them, they would certainly retreat. If they didn't, then it was reasonable for them to be punished and taught a lesson.
Xiao Yang also walked out of the Linglong Tower and calmly looked at the assistants in front of him. He smiled faintly and said, "Everyone, Xiao Du 'er has lost and left. This is a matter between me and Xiao Du' er. Tell me what you want to do."
Some of the more sensible assistants immediately took their leave and apologized for their previous behavior. Perhaps Xiao Yang defeating Xiao Du 'er didn't mean anything, but defeating Xiao Du' er was a big deal.
Therefore, when immortals fight, mortals suffer. When the city gate is on fire, the fish in the moat will suffer. They didn't want to be innocently implicated. Now, the wisest choice was to retreat.
Of course, there were also some foolish assistants. They were used to being arrogant with Xiao Du 'er and naturally weren't willing to be defeated this time.
Besides, they also knew that Xiao Du 'er and the number one assistant Xiao Du' er were relatives. So, with this trump card, they thought that Xiao Yang wouldn't be arrogant for long.
After waiting for a while, Xiao Yang saw that there were still seven or eight assistants standing there. His eyes revealed a playful look as he said sarcastically, "So, you guys are destined to participate in this matter. Must you collude with Xiao Du 'er to make things difficult for me?"
"Xiao Yang, don't be so proud. I tell you, your arrogance won't last long. Soon, someone will come to clean you up."
An assistant fiercely roared at Xiao Yang.
"Yes, Xiao Yang, you still don't know. Among all the assistants, the number one assistant Xiao Du 'er is Xiao Du' er's relative. I advise you to apologize and compensate for all of our losses. Otherwise, when Xiao Du 'er comes, you won't even have the chance to kneel."
"Xiao Yang, you think you're so great just because you can reach the ninth floor? Ridiculous, even a senior assistant has to give some face to Xiao Du 'er."
These assistants had a common enemy and angrily shouted at Xiao Yang. It was as if Xiao Yang had done something that angered the heavens.
"Okay, I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you good-for-nothings. Speak, where is Xiao Du 'er hiding?"
Xiao Yang indifferently said with a cold expression.
After he was promoted to assistant, he had a grudge with Xiao Du 'er.
Originally, both sides had agreed that as long as he defeated Xiao Du 'er, this matter would be written off.
But now, it seemed that Xiao Du 'er didn't keep his promise and probably went to find helpers.
"I'm here, Xiao Yang. Your death has come."
A smug grin came from the distance. It was Xiao Du 'er's voice.
There was another person accompanying him. That person was wearing a gray long-distance running suit. His temperament was outstanding. His eyes were bright and his strength was restrained.
Many assistants were surprised and happy when they saw this scene.
"Xiao Du 'er is back. Look, he also invited Xiao Du' er. This time, Xiao Yang is going to have a good time."
"Greetings, Big Brother Du 'er, Big Brother Du' er."
"Two Big Brothers, this Xiao Yang is arrogant, domineering, and insufferably arrogant. He still doesn't know how to repent. Please, Big Brother Du 'er, teach him how to behave and know the rules of being an assistant."
Many of Xiao Du 'er's henchmen were talking excitedly. It was as if they were going to win this show.
After all, the title of the number one assistant was there. Among all the assistants, Xiao Du 'er was recognized as the number one. He was also the most powerful. Although he rarely took action, once he did, it was always successful.
"Big Brother Du 'er, this person is Xiao Yang. He is frivolous and doesn't know how to respect his seniors. He relied on his despicable means to take away all of our alchemy resources. This person's crime is unforgivable. Please, Big Brother Du' er, help us."
After Xiao Du 'er landed, he coldly glanced at Xiao Yang. His eyes were full of provocation. Then, he turned his head, bowed his head, and begged Xiao Du' er like a senior.
The other assistants all agreed and begged him to teach Xiao Yang a lesson.
