On the long street, people and horses were thrown off their feet. It was chaos.
After many people recovered from their shock, they surrounded Hong Yi and discussed spiritedly. Most of them did not know what had happened, but there were a few shrewd people who looked at Hong Yi. Their faces revealed a bewildered expression.
This place was not far from the Hong Family Academy. Today was the first day of school, and many people came to school. Those who were able to enter the Hong Family Academy were naturally wealthy and respectable young masters. Among these young masters, there were some who were hedonistic, but there were also those who had a good eye for things.
Hong Yi ignored the gazes of these people. Standing on the ground, he looked at the fallen horse and Rong Pan, whose head was bleeding from the fall. In his heart, he felt a sense of exaltation that he had never felt before.
"Not good. I should have just dodged, why did I have to hit the horse? If the news of me revealing my martial arts reached my father's ears, I'm afraid it would be difficult for me to get over it. But knowing that the other party was going to humiliate me, if I did not retaliate, it would seem that I was afraid. In the future, there will be more and more such incidents, and it will be harder to deal with. "
After the exaltation, Hong Yi also felt that the consequences of exposing his martial arts were hard to predict.
Marquis Wu Wen had roughly guessed Hong Xuanji's character. He had held power for many years, and he was also a peerless expert. Such a person naturally could not tolerate any rebellion, and his words were set in stone.
But thinking about the principles of a man of character, Hong Yi also calmed down a little.
Patting the dust off his body, he pretended that nothing had happened. His face was cold, and his steps were steady as he walked towards the academy.
"You, stop right there!"
A fierce roar came from behind him.
Hong Yi did not turn around. It was as if he was not being called, and he pretended to be deaf and dumb as he walked forward.
At this moment, the sound of a whip suddenly came from behind him. Someone had actually whipped his head.
This whip was very loud. If it had hit, it would have at least left a bloody mark.
When Hong Yi heard the roar behind him, he was already on guard. He dodged and turned around, only to find that it was Hong Gui, with a ferocious look on her face. She had already dismounted from her horse and was raising her whip menacingly, ready to lash him again.
"Hong Gui, what are you doing!"
Hong Yi was not afraid, nor did he dodge. With a loud shout, he pointed his finger at Hong Gui and stared into her eyes. He concentrated his spirit into his eyes and prepared to draw his bow and take aim.
Thud! Thud!
Hong Gui took two steps back. She was startled by Hong Yi's sudden shout. In his impression, Hong Yi had always been a taciturn person who would avoid trouble and walk far away. How did he become so courageous today?
Especially the way the other party stared at him. It was as if he was aiming an arrow at his target. It was a little scary.
Hong Yi had trained his eyes and bow. He had concentrated his spirit into his eyes for so many days. He had observed the birds in the trees and the stars in the sky. When he stood up and drew his bow, his eyes had cultivated a little sharpness of an arrow when he stared at someone.
"What's going on! Tell me about it. "
Hong Gui's face flashed a bright red. After the initial shock, she also reacted. Her face became more and more ferocious. She used the whip in her hand to point at Rong Pan, who was being helped up by a servant ten steps away and could no longer move.
The horse was also being led up.
Just now, the horse was only in pain and fell to the ground in fright.
With the strength of Hong Yi's fist, he had not reached the level of killing a horse with two fists. Even if the horse stopped and let him hit it, he would not be able to kill it with one punch. Moreover, the horse was charging at him. Hong Yi was able to dodge in an instant and then hit the horse in pain. This was already the best result of the past three months of hard training.
If it was him in the past, the momentum of the horse charging at him would have scared him to the point that he would have to dodge in panic.
"He was frightened by the horse. It's hard to avoid being frightened when riding a horse on the street. Hong Gui, you have to tell your cousin to be careful in the future. It's okay if he bumps into himself, but if he bumps into someone and it gets out, people will say that a relative of our Marquis Wu Wen's residence hurt people with a horse. This will ruin the reputation of the family. "
Looking at Hong Gui, Hong Yi said unhurriedly.
"Bullsh * t! You lowly thing, how dare you talk big in front of the young master. "
Hong Gui flew into a rage and lashed out with her whip again. No matter what he said, he could not win against Hong Yi. In addition, his status as a supporter was noble. How could he be willing to argue with Hong Yi?
"Hmph!"
His mother was a thorn in Hong Yi's heart. When the other scolded him, the fire in his heart immediately boiled. However, he did not show it on his face. When the whip came, he suddenly grabbed it.
Hong Gui saw that Hong Yi grabbed the whip with his hand. The corner of his mouth curled into a sinister smile. He retracted the whip and waved it to confuse the eyes. Suddenly, his leg flew out and went straight for the crotch. It was fast and fierce.
Hong Gui had practiced boxing before. This time, the upper part was fake and the lower part was solid.
Hong Yi was also frightened by this sudden change in move. Fortunately, he was a dual cultivator. His thoughts moved quickly and his body cooperated. He nimbly blocked the leg with one hand and turned his wrist to grab the leg. He lifted it up and forcefully flipped it.
Plop! Like lifting a rock, Hong Gui was flipped upside down. He fell on his butt and his body was covered in dust. The image of a rich young master was completely gone.
This move was not a move from the Demon Ox's Fist of Great Strength. It was Hong Xuejiao's unique Little Heavenly Spirit Capturing Hand.
"You … … What are you all looking at? Come on!"
Hong Gui never thought that he would be at a disadvantage in the hands of Hong Yi. Before he got up, he shouted loudly.
Hong Gui was after all the son of the Marquis's wife. His status was very high. There were three or four study boys beside him and a few servants. When they saw that their master was at a disadvantage, they immediately surrounded him. A few of the smarter ones helped him up while the loyal ones rubbed their fists.
"You all want to bully your master?" Seeing five or six people surrounding him, Hong Yi said sternly, "If I send a note to Yujing Prefecture, you all will be exiled for three thousand miles. Do you believe me?"
This group of menacing servants immediately froze in place, looking at each other, not knowing whether to retreat or advance.
"Hmph!" Hong Yi snorted coldly. With a swish, he flung his sleeves and threw out two words, "Despicable person!" He then strode into the academy.
Hearing the word 'despicable person', Hong Gui was so angry that his whole body trembled. However, he didn't dare to chase after him.
"Young Master, don't be angry. We will deal with him when we have time. I saw clearly just now that he used Second Miss's Little Heavenly Spirit Capturing Hand. It's obvious that Second Miss secretly taught him martial arts. That's why he dared to treat you like this. I heard that Marquis forbade him from practicing martial arts, but he's secretly practicing it now. Go and report this to Second Madam and let Second Madam tell First Madam. When that time comes, he'll suffer! "
Just as Hong Gui was about to vomit blood in anger, a well-built servant who looked like a guard spoke up.
This servant was clearly trained in martial arts and had good eyesight. He actually saw that the kick that Hong Yi used to flip Hong Gui over was the Little Heavenly Spirit Capturing Hand.
"Yes, yes, yes. He's dead for sure this time. It won't be as simple as breaking his legs."
Hong Gui turned around and rode back to the mansion.
When Hong Yi arrived at the academy, many people who saw this scene were secretly shocked. While they were studying, they would look at him from time to time. No one would have thought that the son of a concubine, who usually had the lowest status in the Marquis's mansion, would have such a strong character and scolded angrily.
However, Hong Yi didn't care about the gazes of so many people. He continued to read calmly and ponder over the essays, looking calm and composed.
It was noon.
It was time to rest and eat. Suddenly, four or five expressionless people rushed into the academy. They walked in front of Hong Yi and said, "Young Master Yi, First Madam wants you to return to the Marquis's mansion."
Hong Yi raised his head. With one glance, he could tell that these were the guards of the Marquis's mansion. They were all soldiers who had followed Hong Xuanji after they retired. Their skills were much better than those servants.
