Pu!
Everyone staggered, as though they were struck by lightning.
Initially, they thought that he might have said it wrongly or heard it wrongly. However, the second time around, they realized that this was what the fool was referring to.
Scolding Liu Shi's entire family...
And you're still acting so righteous and confident, swallowing the mountains and rivers. F * ck you, fatty, where does your confidence come from?
Master Yuanyu froze on the spot and tears streamed down his cheeks.
I only said it casually, who did I offend... Great, if Liu Shi were to fly into a rage, he would definitely cause a huge ruckus. If that Yang Xuan is really a master teacher, a fight would be inevitable. After that, there would be no more after that...
Everyone was dumbfounded. On the other hand, Sun Qiang thought that he had hit the nail on the head.
This was the method the old master used to bluff Ling Tianyu back then. The moment the other party opened his mouth, the other party would immediately kneel down. He had imitated Zhang Xuan's attitude and actions back then perfectly, looking as though he was above everyone else, as though he had seen through the affairs of the world.
Lifting his head, he secretly turned his eyes to see if the other party was willing to bow down to him and address him as master. However, the other party's face steeled and the guard drew his sword.
"Old master, I want to kill him..." The guard roared and charged forward.
"Ah? Why isn't it working? "Seeing the guard's expression, no matter how foolish Sun Qiang was, he realized that something was amiss. Gedeng! Gedeng! Could it be that he was wrong? However, he couldn't afford to lose his dignity and identity at this moment.
Every time the old master spoke, everyone would be infuriated. However, after his bluff was proven, the other party would immediately submit.
At this point, his confidence grew, "How about this, let me touch your wife... Oh, it's fine if your wife isn't around. You... are a beast who has nothing better to do..."
After pondering for a moment, he recalled the other words the old master had said.
The surroundings fell silent.
Brother, I thought that you were bold enough to scold him, but to think that it was far from your limit...
Touching Liu Shi's wife and scolding Liu Shi as a beast... I've seen gutsy people, but I've never seen someone as bold as you...
Liu Shi's face was also steeled. His cheeks twitched non-stop and he was on the verge of fainting.
If it weren't for his high self-restraint, he would have slapped the fool in front of him to death.
"Master, please allow me to kill this idiot who insulted you!"
Guard A Yun couldn't help but raise his head and cupped his fists.
"Tell him who I am!"
Liu Shi flicked his sleeves.
In fact, he also wanted to kill the person in front of him, but the other party's arrogance made him feel a little fearful.
If he wasn't a master teacher, how could a mere butler dare to say such words?
If the other party was an even more formidable master teacher, he wouldn't dare to bear the wrath of the other party's butler.
Therefore, it was better to be careful. He would first reveal his identity and let the other party know that he wanted to see his attitude.
"Fatty, our old master is the Honorary King of Beiwu Tier-2 Kingdom, Master Teacher Liu Ling..." Ah Yun stepped forward.
"I don't care what prince you are …" Sun Qiang was halfway through his sentence when his fat body trembled. "What did you say? Master teacher? He's a master teacher? "
He could disregard the kings of other kingdoms, but master teachers were a different story altogether.
"That's right. Our old master is a 1-star master teacher. To dare to insult him is a capital offense!"
Ah Yun gritted his teeth.
Master teachers mustn't be insulted. Insulting his entire family, wanting to touch his wife, and even calling him a beast... Just these were sufficient for him to die a hundred times over.
"Capital offense?"
Sun Qiang's mouth twitched. He nearly collapsed on the spot.
Initially, he only wanted to act cool in the absence of the old master to impress the old master. Never in his dreams did he expect that he would end up acting like a fool.
The old master acted in the same manner as well. Why did the other party kneel down in fear, not daring to even breathe loudly, while he bumped into a master teacher...
Why was there such a huge disparity between the two of them?
Insulting a master teacher... Isn't this courting death?
What should I do?
Sun Qiang's fat face scrunched up, and he was on the verge of tears.
"Report to your old master that Master Teacher Liu Ling, Zhuang Xian, and Zheng Fei are here to pay a visit. I will speak to your old master about your matter personally!"
Seeing the arrogant plump butler trembling in fear, Liu Shi instructed Liu Ling to wave his hands.
If the other party was really a master teacher, he could gain a favor from his subordinate for insulting him. However, if the other party wasn't, he could go on a rampage and take down the impersonator to exact vengeance.
"Our old master left early in the morning... I don't know when he will return..." Hearing that the other party wouldn't make a move on him for the time being, Sun Qiang heaved a sigh of relief.
After knowing the other party's identity, he didn't dare to act as arrogantly as before.
"I wonder when he will return?" Liu Ling and the others frowned.
They couldn't possibly wait here forever, could they?
"Yes!" Sun Qiang nodded his head.
"How about this, this is our name scroll. Take it, we will pay you a visit when your old master returns."
Liu Ling gestured and the guard behind him, Ah Yun, passed a name scroll over.
"Yes!" Sun Qiang didn't dare to say anything. He took the name scroll, and upon seeing the two words' master teacher 'written on it, his eyebrows twitched uncontrollably.
"Let's go!" Since the other party wasn't around, the three master teachers couldn't be bothered to waste their breath on a butler. Thus, they turned around and left.
Upon seeing them leave, Sun Qiang heaved a sigh of relief. Wiping off the cold sweat on his body, he returned to the courtyard.
Just as he returned to the courtyard, he felt his knees buckling and he fell to the ground.
Looks like acting cool isn't something that one can casually do. Otherwise... I wouldn't even know how I died... In the future, I will never act cool ever again...
......
"Liu Shi, why didn't you kill that fellow who insulted you?"
While the group was walking back, Ah Yun couldn't help but ask.
Those who were able to become master teachers weren't soft-hearted individuals. Liu Shi had always been decisive when it came to killing, so why was he able to tolerate the fatty's words today?
"Brother Zheng, what do you think?"
Instead of answering his question, Liu Ling turned to look at Zheng shi, Zheng Fei.
"The person living in this residence isn't simple. If he is a master teacher, his rank shouldn't be any lower than ours." Zheng Fei nodded his head grimly.
"Indeed!" Zhenshi Zhuang Xian nodded his head as well.
"This... But we didn't see the owner of the residence?"
Hearing the words of the three master teachers, everyone was perplexed.
Didn't you see the old master whom the fatty spoke of? If you didn't see him in person, how can you be sure that his rank isn't lower than yours?
Even Yuanyu, who was following behind, turned to look at them doubtfully.
"We didn't see the owner, but we saw his butler." Liu Shi said.
"That fool?" Ah Yun couldn't help but ask. What was so strange about this fool?
"You have only seen the surface!" Liu Shi shook his head. "I have taken a look at this butler's physique. Not only is it not good, it can be said to be extremely poor. Logically speaking, it is already extremely fortunate for one to be able to reach Fighter 3-dan Zhenqi realm pinnacle. However, did you see it just now? How strong is he? "
"Fighter 4-dan Pigu realm advanced stage..."
Ah Yun hesitated for a moment before replying.
"That's right, his cultivation has already reached Pigu realm advanced stage. Furthermore... Judging from how he is unable to control his zhenqi, he should have just achieved a breakthrough not too long ago. Furthermore, according to what Master Yuanyu said, this Sun Qiang was just a merchant in the market previously... It can be deduced that his cultivation rose after being guided by the owner of the residence..."
At this point, Liu Shi's eyes turned grim. "With such a poor physique and mediocre cultivation technique, the zhenqi in his body must have already sunk into sludge, sealing his meridians. Under such circumstances, not only did he manage to achieve a breakthrough in just a few days, he even managed to raise his cultivation by an entire realm... Even I would find it hard to achieve such a feat."
As a master teacher, he was able to see through the uniqueness of Sun Qiang with a single look.
Sun Qiang's meridians were clogged up and his zhenqi had sunk. Logically speaking, it was already incredible for him to reach Zhenqi realm pinnacle. Yet, he was only at Pigu realm advanced stage.
If Zhang Xuan were to hear their conclusion, he would definitely be astonished.
As expected of a master teacher, his eye of discernment was indeed fearsome.
It was no wonder why it was an occupation feared by the entire continent. The sharpness of their eyes was not something an ordinary person could match up to.
"If I'm not wrong, the other party used the purest zhenqi to reopen the shackles in his body and even melted his zhenqi, thus allowing him to achieve a breakthrough and advance by leaps and bounds to Pigu realm advanced stage!"
Zhuang shi, who had been silent all this while, hesitated for a moment before speaking.
If Sun Qiang was here, he would definitely jump in shock. His experience was exactly as the master teacher had said.
"To be able to melt one's zhenqi and reopen the shackles in one's meridians, that person's zhenqi must have reached at least intermediate tier. Or perhaps... his cultivation has reached Zongshi realm!"
Liu Shi nodded his head. Then, he turned to Ah Yun and said, "Regardless of whether he is an expert who has cultivated intermediate tier zhenqi or a Zongshi realm... Even if he isn't a master teacher, he isn't someone we can afford to offend. If he is a master teacher, even if his cultivation isn't higher than ours, his potential is far greater than ours. If we were to kill his butler just now, it would be equivalent to falling out with him. If so, we might as well do him a favor. He is just an insignificant figure. I believe that he should be scared witless after knowing our identity."
"Yes!" Ah Yun nodded his head.
He knew that the old master possessed a sharp eye of discernment and was able to discern the truth from the details. Thus, he chose to remain silent.
"Incredible!"
Upon hearing those words, Master Yuanyu's mouth was agape in shock.
It was no wonder why master teachers were regarded as the noblest occupation. With just a glance, he was able to analyze so much. His eye of discernment was truly fearsome.
"Then, old master, that person isn't in the residence. What should we do?"
Ah Yun asked.
"Just because he isn't in the residence doesn't mean that we are unable to ascertain his identity. Tell Emperor Shen Zhui to summon the few people whom Yang Xuan had treated to the royal palace. I want to take a look personally..."
Liu Shi instructed.
"Yes!" Ah Yun nodded his head.
Upon hearing those words, Master Yuanyu was impressed.
It was one thing for Yang Xuan to be absent, but the fact that he had helped Ling Tianyu, Du Miaoxuan, Luo Chong, and Apothecary Chen Xiao... None of this was a secret. As long as they were to summon them over and interrogate them, they should be able to find out more.
Then, it would be clear whether he was a true master teacher or not.
