When Fang Chaozhou heard this, even though he was dizzy, he instinctively sensed the danger, so he shook his head. Not only that, he also took a step back.

In Fang Chaozhou's eyes, Zhongli Yueshui wanted to check his injuries and must want to beat him again.

Zhongli Yueshui frowned when he saw Fang Chaozhou's rather large movement, but he did not force Fang Chaozhou to roll up his trouser legs.

After the morning class, Fang Chaozhou went to the south of Huali Mountain as usual, but he did not rush to practice. Instead, he sat down, rolled up his trouser legs, and rubbed his calves with his fingers.

In fact, it was not as painful as yesterday, but it was particularly sore today. He could not bear it when he stood outside Zhongli Yueshui's courtyard before.

The sun was too bright today. After rubbing his legs, Fang Chaozhou felt sleepy. He hardly slept last night because of the pain in his calves, and he got up too early this morning, which made him very sleepy and he could hardly keep his eyelids open.

How about taking a nap for a while?

Thinking of this, Fang Chaozhou looked around and saw that Tu Bai had stayed in Zhongli Yueshui's courtyard and did not follow. He should not be discovered if he takes a nap now.

Thinking of this, Fang Chaozhou decided to go to sleep. He untied his outer robe, spread it on the ground with the best sunlight, and lay down on it with his eyes closed.

He was just planning to take a short nap, but he fell into a deep sleep without realizing it. When he woke up, the sun was already setting. Fang Chaozhou slowly opened his eyes, which were still slightly sleepy, and raised his hand to yawn. However, he froze halfway through the yawn.

Because someone was standing next to him.

From the other person's snow-white clothes, Fang Chaozhou already knew who the person was. In fact, he knew without even looking that besides him, Zhongli Yueshui was the only living person in the entire Huali Mountain.

Fang Chaozhou knew that a disaster was imminent, so he could only quickly get up, lower his head and call out "Master".

"Fang Chaozhou, is this your practice?" Zhongli Yueshui's voice was flat.

Fang Chaozhou didn't know what to say. He was indeed lazy, but he was really too sleepy. However, in the eyes of these cultivators, sleepiness was nothing compared to cultivation.

Seeing that Fang Chaozhou didn't say anything, Zhongli Yueshui produced a ruler in his hand. The ruler was a jade ruler, completely snow-white and without any flaws. Fang Chaozhou caught a glimpse of it and saw that the two hands at his sides couldn't help but nervously clench their clothes.

"Turn around." Zhongli Yueshui said coldly.

Fang Chaozhou's calf is still hurting now. If he is hit twice more, he won't be able to stand up tomorrow.

"Master... Grandfather, can you... not punish me?" He bit the tip of his tongue and was barely able to speak in front of the other party.

Zhongli Yueshui seemed to snort, "If I don't punish you, how can you remember? You will be lazy again next time. Didn't you say your legs don't hurt anymore? Then a few more spankings will be fine."

"No, it hurts...it hurts so much." Fang Chaozhou didn't care about too much and just wanted to avoid this punishment, so he bent down and rolled up his trouser legs, and turned around to show the other party.

The man's gaze swept downwards because of Fang Chaozhou's action, and a hint of emotion flashed across his light gray eyes, but the emotion disappeared too quickly for anyone to catch it.

"If your legs hurt, then other parts of your body definitely won't hurt. Fang Chaozhou, you choose where to hit?" he said.

Fang Chaozhou felt very bitter when he heard this. No matter where he was hit, it was his flesh. Every piece of flesh was precious and it would hurt when he was hit. He hesitated to move, and Zhongli Yueshui seemed to lose patience and said directly: "Since you can't choose, then I will help you choose, how about the hand?"

Fang Chaozhou looked at his hands. His fingers were connected to his heart and it would be painful to hit them. He shook his head violently.

"Back?" Zhongli Yueshui asked.

His back was so thin that he was afraid that Zhongli Yueshui would break all the bones.

Zhongli Yueshui frowned, "You don't want to hit my legs, your hands, your back, so where else can I hit you?"

Fang Chaozhou wanted to struggle before his death, "Master...ancestor, I know...I was wrong, can you...not punish me?"

"No." Zhongli Yueshui sentenced Fang Chaozhou to death.

Fang Chaozhou was at a loss. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and extended his hand to Zhongli Yueshui.

Zhongli Yueshui looked at the shaking hand stretched out in front of him, picked up the ruler, and said, "Straighten it out."

As soon as he finished speaking, he hit him.

But it missed.

Fang Chaozhou quickly retracted his hand in fear. His movements were so fast that even Zhongli Yueshui was surprised.

And his retracting of his hand seemed to have angered Zhongli Yueshui. Zhongli Yueshui actually pulled his hand over, not giving him a chance to hide, and hit his palm with the ruler.

Fang Chaozhou was in so much pain that he didn't care about anything else and just wanted to pull his hand back, but he couldn't break free from Zhongli Yueshui, and because of his struggle, the ruler hit his fingertips for the second time.

Hitting the fingertips hurts ten times more than hitting the palm. Fang Chaozhou groaned and his eyes turned red, but before the pain subsided, he saw the ruler was raised again.

At this point, Fang Chaozhou was completely panicked, "Stop, stop hitting my hands, Master, hit somewhere else."

The ruler stopped above his palm. Zhongli Yueshui raised his eyelids and looked at him calmly, "Where do you want to hit me?"

Fang Chaozhou was feeling dizzy and in pain. He hesitated when he heard Zhongli Yueshui's words.

This hesitation caught Zhongli Yueshui's eyes and made the other party lose his patience. Zhongli Yueshui let go of Fang Chaozhou's hand, grabbed him and turned him around, saying in a low voice, "One more time. If you can't choose, I'll help you choose."

This blow hit the lower back.

Fang Chaozhou was angry, so when Tubai came to call him the next day, he not only did not get up, but also grabbed the little kitten Tubai into his quilt and stroked it hard with the hand that was not hit.

Tu Bai was given a cat-style massage by Fang Chaozhou. He forgot the time and fell asleep in Fang Chaozhou's arms in a daze. He forgot the original purpose of coming here until he heard familiar footsteps. He suddenly woke up, broke free from Fang Chaozhou's hand, and crawled out of the quilt.

As soon as it came out, it jumped off the bed, looked at the approaching man, and meowed.

Fang Chaozhou also heard the footsteps, but he stubbornly did not move, and even tightened the quilt around himself. He couldn't stay here any longer. In just two days, he had already been punished twice. In a few more days, he might really be beaten to death.

Moreover, Zhongli Yueshui was too disrespectful to him. Although his age was insignificant compared to Zhongli Yueshui's, he was not a child anymore. How could he attack that place?

It's so embarrassing.

So he made up his mind. He would refuse to practice and make Zhongli Yueshui completely disappointed in him, thinking that he was stubborn and unrepentant. Then he would be driven down from Huali Mountain. Maybe the other party would not even let him stay in Tianshui Sect. But he didn't have to stay. As long as he didn't get discovered by Li Yiye after leaving Tianshui Sect, it would be fine.

He can go to places where there are many mortals. Such places are poor in spiritual energy and cultivators often do not go there.

"Fang Chaozhou." Zhongli Yueshui's voice came from nearby.

Fang Chaozhou felt dizzy when he heard the voice, but this time he let himself be dizzy since he just lay in bed and didn't get up. He didn't get up. The man standing beside his bed paused and called Fang Chaozhou again. This time his voice was obviously harsher than before, but Fang Chaozhou still didn't move.

After being silent for a while, Zhongli Yueshui leaned over and touched Fang Chaozhou's forehead with his hand.

His hands were icy cold, and when he reached out, a fragrance emanated from his sleeves, like the scent of bamboo in spring.

Fang Chaozhou was stunned when his forehead was touched. When Zhongli Yueshui's voice almost rang in his ears, he was so dizzy that he couldn't even speak. He turned his head involuntarily and looked at the other party in a daze.

"Not feeling well?" Zhongli Yueshui asked Fang Chaozhou. After he asked, he saw the young man on the bed staring at him blankly. He pursed his lips slightly, and the hand on his forehead slid down and grabbed the corner of the quilt, "Let me take a look at the injury."

Because Fang Chaozhou was still unconscious, Zhongli Yueshui managed to pull his hand out from under the quilt very easily, but when he touched Fang Chaozhou's fingertips, he heard an inhalation.

Zhongli Yueshui lowered his eyes and took out the ointment from his sleeve.

He applied the ointment on Fang Chaozhou's hand. The ointment seemed to have a miraculous effect. As soon as it was applied, Fang Chaozhou found that he no longer felt any pain.

After Zhongli Yueshui applied the oil on his hands, he looked towards Fang Chaozhou's legs.

"Does your leg still hurt?"

Fang Chaozhou originally wanted to make Zhongli Yueshui angry, but he didn't expect that not only did he not get angry, he actually helped him apply the medicine gently. He didn't expect the other party to adopt a conciliatory policy, and now he doesn't know what to do.

When Zhongli Yueshui saw that Fang Chaozhou didn't say anything or move, he grabbed the quilt and opened it, then grabbed Fang Chaozhou's ankles and forcibly pulled his legs over.

After his trouser legs were rolled up, Fang Chaozhou regained consciousness, "Master... Grandmaster, I..."

He wanted to say that he could apply it himself, but at this moment, Zhongli Yueshui glanced at him, and then Fang Chaozhou felt like he was in a dream. He was dizzy and conscious of nothing the whole time. Occasionally he could feel touch on his calf, but the feeling was not strong.

Then, he seemed to hear Zhongli Yueshui's voice, but he couldn't hear clearly what the other party was saying.

Tu Bai had been staring at the bed. When he saw Zhongli Yueshui's actions, his mandarin duck eyes widened a little. He came over and jumped onto the bed, meowing softly.

Zhongli Yueshui paused in applying the medicine. He turned to look at the white cat beside him without saying anything.

Tubai tilted his head and meowed again.

Zhongli Yueshui withdrew his hand from applying the medicine and stood up to wash his hands. He used the water from the nearby purification room. When he returned to Fang Chaozhou's bedroom, his brows immediately knitted together and he said in a stern voice, "Tu Bai!"

Tubai didn't know when it turned into a white tiger. When it heard Zhongli Yueshui's voice, it jumped off the bed in fear. It turned back into a white cat, ran to Zhongli Yueshui's feet, and rubbed his legs like a spoiled child. When Zhongli Yueshui lowered his head, he saw that the hair on its chin was dyed blue.

The ointment he applied to Fang Chaozhou was light blue.

"Get out!" Zhongli Yueshui's voice was extremely cold.

Tu Bai didn't dare to resist and went out obediently. However, after it went out, it didn't go far. It squatted at the door and peeked through the crack. When it saw Zhongli Yueshui walking towards the bed, it made a gurgling sound in its throat.

Tubai stuck out his tongue to lick his mouth, then raised his paw and licked the green paste off its paw.
