PS: I didn't write six chapters yesterday, and I feel very uneasy. Today, I will try to write more to make up for it.
"Where are you going?" Lu Tianji clutched his Dantian and pressed his chest a few times. He took out a jade porcelain bottle from his bosom and popped the two pills in the bottle into his mouth.
While he was doing this, his eyes were fixed on Chu Li. "Zhuge Tian, are you trying to escape?"
Chu Li turned his head to look at him and suddenly laughed. "I'm going to receive my own punishment. It's a sin to accidentally injure someone in a sparring match. Why should I run away? Brother Lu, you think too much of your master. "
"Zhuge Tian, I didn't expect you to be so sinister. Why would you do such a vicious thing!" Lu Tianji glared at him angrily. "We are from the same sect!"
Chu Li shook his head and said, "If you really had the feelings of a fellow disciple, you wouldn't have said those words. After I apologize, I will question Elder Hu face to face. How did he teach his disciple to be so vicious!"
After saying that, he ignored him and strode away.
Qiao San looked worriedly at Lu Tianji and helplessly followed Chu Li.
If it had been anyone else, it wouldn't matter if they were crippled or even killed. He viewed them as ants, and the death of one or two of them was nothing to him.
But this was Lu Tianji, Hu Huarong's disciple, the disciple whom Hu Huarong had fervently hoped to inherit the position of the next Hill Master. Yet, he was crippled just like that, and Hu Huarong's hopes were crushed.
Qiao San didn't need to think too much to guess Hu Huarong's reaction. He would definitely go crazy and kill the Young Master.
Hu Huarong could not be compared to the hill master. His martial arts were the best in the Crouching Bull Mountain. He was old, his cultivation was deep, and he had a lot of experience. The young lord might not be able to handle him.
Chu Li strode to the main hall, ignoring the Protectors outside and went straight in.
Zhuge Feng and the six elders were all present in the hall.
"Young Lord?" Murong Chun noticed that Chu Li's expression was cold and did not look right.
Chu Li said, "Everyone, there's no need to talk about Lu Tianji anymore, I've already crippled him!"
"Crippled?" Zhuge Feng frowned. "What crippled?"
"Cripple his martial arts," Chu Li said.
"Hmm — —?" Zhuge Feng's body suddenly straightened, his gaze sharp.
Murong Chun, Xia Liyan, and the others were shocked.
Zhuge Feng looked at Qiao San.
Qiao San smiled bitterly and nodded. "Lu Tianji came to the small courtyard to look for Young Lord just now. Young Lord was originally practicing his swordsmanship and did not receive visitors, but Lu Tianji insisted on seeing Young Lord and even provoked Young Lord."
Chu Li looked at him lazily.
Qiao San continued, "After he met the young master, he insulted him and kept provoking the young master. In the end, the young master pulled out his sword and stabbed him. Coincidentally, he was injured in his Dantian!"
Chu Li waved his hand to interrupt Qiao San's words. "Lu Tianji came to look for me on the eve of the competition, could it be to improve our relationship? He wants to test my strength. If my martial art skill is not strong, he will definitely win. But if my martial art skill is stronger than his, he will let Hu Huarong injure me, and then he will win. "
"Don't talk nonsense!" Zhuge Feng said in a deep voice, "Don't measure the heart of a gentleman with your own mean measure!"
Chu Li laughed and looked at Murong Chun and Xia Liyan. "Elders, do you believe that he is a good person and wants to talk to me through the night?"
"Well …" Murong Chun said, "These speculations cannot be proven. If Elder Hu comes, it would be useless to say this, because … Elder Hu will definitely not let this go!"
Chu Li smiled. "He is the mastermind, how can he let this go!"
"You …" Zhuge Feng pointed at him. "A little impatience will spoil a great plan. Since you can see through his thoughts, then just fool him a little. You can show your power during the competition. Why do you have to create such a mess!"
Chu Li said, "He kept provoking me, and this is the consequence of angering me."
"Just treat it as a fart!" Zhuge Feng said in a deep voice, "You, you just can't keep your cool!"
Chu Li said, "He said that I am not your flesh and blood, I am born from my mother with another man!"
"Bang!" Zhuge Feng slammed the armrest of the armchair.
"Crash!" The armchair fell apart and became a pile of broken wood.
Zhuge Feng stood up and laughed coldly. "Did he really say that?"
Chu Li said, "Would I make this up?"
"An evil person, he deserves to die!" Zhuge Feng said coldly. "You should have killed him with one strike!"
Chu Li looked at Murong Chun and Xia Liyan.
Murong Chun and the other five showed an angry expression.
Lu Tianji's words touched their sore spot.
They all respected and loved Zhuge Tian's mother and could not tolerate such slander and humiliation. It seemed that if they were present, they would have done it too.
Chu Li said, "After hearing this, I am not worthy to be his son. I did not kill him because I wanted to save Elder Hu's face."
"Damn it!" Zhuge Feng scoffed.
"Young Master is right to cripple him! Some things can be tolerated, but some things cannot! " Murong Chun scoffed. "This Lu Tianji has ulterior motives, it is better to cripple him. What do you think, Hill Master?"
Zhuge Feng said coldly, "Looks like we have to consider transferring Elder Hu back."
Everyone shook their heads.
If it was that easy, he would have been transferred back long ago.
Chu Li said, "I want to pay a visit to Elder Hu and apologize!"
"Apologize for what!" Zhuge Feng scoffed. "You did nothing wrong."
Chu Li shook his head. "After all, I still have to apologize for crippling his disciple. Hill Master, Elders, I will take my leave first!"
He closed fist saluted and lazily left the main hall.
Murong Chun smiled. "Young Master is methodical and has improved greatly!"
"Hmph, nonsense!" Zhuge Feng scoffed.
"I am afraid that Young Master will not be able to get away with it," Murong Chun said. "With Elder Hu's temper, how could he not make a move?"
"Since he dared to go, he must be able to protect himself," Zhuge Feng said. "If he can't win, he can run."
Everyone nodded.
—
Chu Li came to Hu Huarong's courtyard and raised his voice. "Junior Zhuge Tian greets Elder Hu!"
"Come in!" Hu Huarong said calmly.
Chu Li waved his hand to let Qiao San stay outside. He stepped into the courtyard and saw Hu Huarong sitting at the stone table. Lu Tianji looked at him calmly as if the previous scene had never happened and he was not angry.
Hu Huarong's eyes were probing as he asked warmly, "Young Master, why are you looking for me?"
Chu Li closed fist saluted. "I am here to ask for forgiveness. I crippled Brother Lu and wasted Elder Hu's efforts. I have sinned!"
"It's nothing. I have already healed Tianji's injury. His cultivation level is not completely destroyed. He will recover in a few days," Hu Huarong said.
Chu Li raised his eyebrows. "I did not expect Elder Hu to have such a panacea. It seems that even the Hill Master does not have one."
"It was a gift from an old friend." Hu Huarong frowned as he heard the sinister tone in Chu Li's words.
Chu Li said, "Then congratulations, Brother Lu. You have regained your cultivation level."
Lu Tianji said lightly, "Young Master, I will repay you for what you have today!"
Chu Li smiled. "Alright, I will wait for you. … I wonder how many more of these panacea Elder Hu has?"
Hu Huarong said, "Hmm, this medicine is rare and difficult to cultivate. I only have one and I have already given it to Tianji."
