Yan Li didn't say or do anything. He just watched quietly.
Luo Fangshuo was in despair. He knelt down silently and whispered in the direction of the crowd, "Senior Brother Long Hua, I'm sorry for blocking your way …"
"Didn't you drink milk today? Who are you whispering to?" That person bent down and slapped Luo Fangshuo's face.
Luo Fangshuo clenched his teeth. His eyes turned red as tears of humiliation rolled down his cheeks. He shouted hoarsely, "Senior Brother Long Hua, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry …"
The onlookers laughed in disdain.
The disciple who forced Luo Fangshuo kicked him down and said fiercely, "Let me tell you. Don't think that just because Cangjian Peak made a small contribution, you can ride on our Sky Sword Peak."
"Senior Brother Long Hua, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry …" Luo Fangshuo fell to the ground and cried.
"Enough."
That person was about to scold again when a faint voice came from behind, "We're all from the same sect. You can play around, but don't hurt the harmony."
"Brother, your weakness is that you're too soft-hearted." That person smiled and walked back.
"Little Fatty, get up!" Cao Zigu clenched his teeth and helped Luo Fangshuo to stand up.
Luo Fangshuo couldn't even lift his head. His shoulders kept shaking. "Senior Brother, I, I want to go back …"
Cao Zigu's face was ashen, he stared fixedly at the group of people, and patted Luo Fangshuo's shoulder to comfort him, "If you miss the ceremony, there will be something that can be used against you, bear with it a little longer …"
That group of people walked over. A man in his thirties with a scar at the corner of his eye walked out from the crowd. He asked calmly, "Although Cangjian Peak made a great contribution this time, you guys hid the news and fought alone. What if the plan failed? When the time comes, the scoundrel will do whatever he wants in our Holy Land, and we don't know anything about it. What will happen to the Court Of Sword's face if the news spreads out? "
He glanced at Yan Li. "You have to think before you act. Don't be so reckless next time."
"Xu Longhua, are you done yet?!" Cao Zigu's killing intent soared.
"What?" The disciple who had just threatened Luo Fangshuo stood up again. "Do you think you, Cao Zigu, have the right to speak to my brother? Don't you know that my brother has participated in three Demon-Buster Conferences and accumulated merits bit by bit to rise to his current position as the Thunder Division's Deputy Head? If you have the ability to roar at my brother, why don't you go kill a few more demons? "
Cao Zigu is so angry that he laughs. "Xu Longshou, don't pretend in front of me. Do you have the ability to sign the life or death contract?"
That person chuckles and says, "Aiya, a life or death contract? I'm so scared. You're an expert in the top ten of the Heaven's Chosen Roll, yet you're bullying a weakling like me who hasn't even made the roll yet. Do you think you'll be proud if word of this gets out?"
Cao Zigu forcefully suppresses the urge to kill that person with his sword. He says in a deep voice, "Junior apprentice-brother, let's go!" Then, he helps Luo Fangshuo walk away.
Yan Li follows them silently.
That person, who is Xu Longshou, laughs coldly to himself. He looks at Yan Li's back and says, "Isn't this the newcomer, Junior Apprentice-Brother Yan? You didn't even greet the Thunder Division's Deputy Head. You're too arrogant. "
Yan Li stops in his tracks.
"Junior apprentice-brother Yan, follow me!" Cao Zigu's expression is steely, but his heart is restless. He's afraid that Yan Li will embarrass him on the spot.
Yan Li's footsteps only stop for a moment before he follows them again.
Only then did Cao Zigu let out a sigh of relief.
Xu Longhua stares at Yan Li's back, his eyes flickering slightly.
Xu Longshou says confusedly, "Huh? Is this the genius who has passed the Four Barriers? Strange, doesn't he have any temper at all? Looks like he's afraid of our Heavenly Sword Peak. Brother, in my opinion, this person is nothing to worry about. "
"Don't worry about this person for now." Xu Longhua says lightly, "Also, don't attack him lightly. It'll be very troublesome if Lu Fengxin is provoked."
Xu Longshou doesn't take it seriously, but he still nods in agreement.
Xu Longhua takes out a bottle from his bosom and throws it over, "Don't be careless during the third empowerment. This is a top-grade empowerment pill I bought from the Medicine King Hall at a high price. Its effect is ten times stronger than normal ones."
Xu Longshou puts it away happily, "Thank you, brother."
"Let's go."
…
Yan Li follows the two all the time. He is not in a hurry to ask questions.
Cao Zigu holds back for a long time. Finally, he can't help but ask, "Junior apprentice-brother, do you have a lot of questions?"
"Yes, and no." Yan Li says.
"Then do you have them or not?" Cao Zigu glares at him.
Yan Li says, "Who are those people?"
"Xu Longhua, one of the vice heads of the Thunder Department of the Heavenly Sword Peak. His strength …" Cao Zigu sighs sadly, "He just retired from the Heavenly Star List a few years ago. I'm not his match. Xu Longshou is also from the Thunder Department, and he is Xu Longhua's younger brother. They collude with each other to force us to make mistakes. "
"What will happen if we make a mistake?" Yan Li asks.
Cao Zigu looks around and says, "Most of these people are disciples of the Heavenly Sword Peak. In their hearts, the Pillar of Sky Mountain is already their Taoist field. What will happen if we make a mistake …"
He sneers, "They will find an excuse to take over the Pillar of Sky Mountain."
"I see," Yan Li says.
"You see?" Cao Zigu is surprised. He didn't expect Yan Li to be so calm. Then he says angrily, "As a member of the Cangjian Peak, don't you feel angry about it?"
"I am very angry," Yan Li says innocently.
"Are you angry?" Cao Zigu doesn't believe him.
Yan Li says with a smile, "When you are angry, you don't have to pretend to be angry."
"It's scary if you don't pretend!" Cao Zigu says in horror.
Yan Li sighs and says, "I know you are in a difficult situation, but I didn't expect it to be a matter of life and death."
"It's not that serious!" Cao Zigu rolls his eyes, "Do you think the Heavenly Sword Peak dares to destroy us?"
"We are going to give the Taoist field to them. Is there any need for the Cangjian Peak to exist?" Yan Li says.
Cao Zigu's face turns cold and says, "Junior apprentice-brother, do you regret joining the Cangjian Peak? It's not too late to regret. You can tell the Peak Master that he is not the kind of person who would force you to stay. "
"I like the Pillar of Heavens Mountains," Yan Li says.
Cao Zigu frowns and then calms down. He says coldly, "You mean you don't have any feelings for the Cangjian Peak? That's natural. You just joined us a few days ago. If you have feelings for us, we will be suspicious of your motives. "
Yan Li smiles and doesn't say anything.
After walking for a while, they come to a stand near the bottom level. Huang Chengyan is waving his hand and calling from afar, "Here, here. Junior apprentice-brother Yan, come here quickly."
Lu Fengxin and the others have already arrived and are waiting for Yan Li.
She suddenly finds that Luo Fangshuo is obviously in low spirits. His eyes are red and it is obvious that he just cried. Her expression gradually changes, "Brat, did someone bully you again?"
"No, no …" Luo Fangshuo lowers his head and sobs.
