Ling Haoran froze, turned his head and saw a little girl in a pink dress hanging the pendant around her neck.
He was on the verge of victory when this unexpected turn of events occurred.
He always relied on his prophecy to steal from others, but this time he was outmaneuvered by a child.
Ling Haoran had never met Ye Zhen in this life, so he didn't know her and thought she was just a willful little girl who had accidentally taken a liking to the pendant.
No, we have to take it back.
He spoke gently, trying to reason with her: "Little sister, I saw this first, so it should rightfully be mine. You should understand the principle of first come, first served, right?"
Fu Gui pulled open his collar, stuffed the pendant inside, patted it with his hand, and then glanced sideways at Ling Haoran.
"Just because you see something you like doesn't mean it's yours. Did you pay for it? Call it and see if it responds."
Ling Haoran suppressed his anger, telling himself that he couldn't reason with the child, so he decided to bribe him.
"How about this, little sister, you give me this one, and I'll buy you any of the others you like, is that alright?"
Her wealthy-looking face turned cold: "Do you think I can't afford it? Are you saying I'm poor?"
Ling Haoran was speechless. Why was this kid so difficult to deal with?
Fu Gui sized Ling Haoran up and down, then sneered, "You poor bastard, what are you trying to do, pretending to be a sucker? I could bury you in money, get out of my way."
That's so cool! Even someone as rich as her can use money to bully others. It's good to be rich.
"How...how can you be so unreasonable?"
Being called a poor bastard, Ling Haoran's face darkened as he recalled how women looked down on him in his previous life.
“Reason?” Fu Gui raised his chin and waved his small hand: “Here, old…I am the reason.”
Ling Haoran was so intimidated by this arrogant attitude that he felt like his head was about to burst into flames.
What a sweet and adorable little girl! How did she become so arrogant and domineering? Who is this spoiled young lady from?
Fugui took a gemstone off his body and threw it to the old woman, then made a move to leave.
"stop."
Seeing that this incredible opportunity was about to be snatched away, Ling Haoran desperately grabbed Fugui, hoping to snatch the pendant back.
Anyway, nobody knows him. She's just a little girl. He can just snatch her and run.
Before his hand could even touch Fugui's shoulder, Fugui suddenly turned around, and Ling Haoran's hand ended up touching Fugui's chest.
“You dare to touch my chest?” Fu Gui said, enunciating each word clearly.
"No, I didn't, I didn't, I... ah..."
Fu Gui jumped up and punched him, causing Ling Haoran's nose to bleed profusely.
He cried out in pain, clutching his nose, and was then kicked in the groin by Fugui. After falling to the ground, Fugui straddled him and beat him mercilessly.
Treat the areas that hurt, and give special care to certain key areas.
"Look everyone! There's a pervert groping a little girl! He touched my chest! I'm going to beat this bastard to death today!"
Fu Gui shouted and hit him, finally pulling out a whip and whipping Ling Haoran back and forth like a spinning top.
The onlookers who witnessed the whole thing pointed and whispered among themselves at Ling Haoran.
"You beast! How could you lay a hand on such a young girl? You'll get struck by lightning sooner or later."
"Good for him, he deserved to be beaten to death."
When Ling Haoran was beaten to the point of barely breathing, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted:
"Miss, I've finally found you! Who bullied you? I'll teach them a lesson... Hao, Senior Brother Haoran? It's you!"
The junior disciple pulled Ye Zhen away and then "helpfully" explained their identities to the onlookers.
Fu Gui said angrily, "What? This is our Tianxuan Sect's genius disciple? I don't believe it. He's clearly a freakish weakling. I'm going home to tell my grandfather."
Ling Haoran's hood had long since fallen off, and he was covered in blood and mud, lying on the ground like a piece of trash, surrounded by onlookers pointing and whispering.
His face burned with embarrassment; he felt utterly ashamed.
The little bitch who stole his opportunity was actually Ye Zhen.
Doesn't the book say that this child has average talent and not much cultivation?
Is this considered average? She's clearly not much worse than Ye Ran.
He was startled when he heard Ye Zhen say that she was going to complain. How was he going to explain this when he got back?
Also, has he been having some kind of conflict with little girls lately? He was tormented by that little bastard on Biyun Peak, and after finally getting down the mountain, he ran into another little devil.
Finally, Ling Haoran was carried back up the mountain by the disciples who had gone down to find Ye Zhen.
Despite being covered in injuries, Ling Haoran took the initiative, kneeling before the old sect leader and crying his eyes out.
“Master, I was afraid of hurting Ah Zhen, that’s why I didn’t fight her. Look at the damage Ah Zhen did to me.”
Fortunately, he was smart enough not to let the system repair the damage, but instead kept it to play the victim and gain sympathy, so he could ask the old man for some compensation.
Unexpectedly, the old man's eyes lit up after hearing his words, and he hurriedly beckoned his disciple over to ask him questions.
"Are you sure Haoran's injury was caused by Ah Zhen? That she inflicted it herself?"
After receiving an affirmative answer, the old sect leader nodded happily, "Not bad, not bad, Ah Zhen's cultivation has greatly improved."
The old man thought to himself that Haoran was an outstanding young man, and in his opinion, even if Haoran stood still and didn't fight back, Azhen couldn't hurt him in the slightest.
The fact that she managed to beat Haoran like this shows that although she doesn't appear to be cultivating, she's actually been secretly working hard behind the scenes.
Ling Haoran looked at the old sect leader in disbelief. "Listen to this, can you even speak human language?"
Fugui rolled up his sleeves: "Old man, why ask others? I'll prove it to you."
After saying that, she stepped forward and kicked Ling Haoran ten meters into the air. The old sect leader quickly used his spiritual power to support him and put him down.
"Well, old man, do you believe me now?"
"Nonsense! How can you attack your fellow disciples so casually?" the old sect leader scolded.
Fu Gui scoffed, "He's not worthy to be my fellow disciple! I don't have such a despicable and shameless fellow disciple."
The old sect leader frowned: "Ah Zhen, stop talking nonsense. Why did you hit Senior Brother Haoran?"
"He touched my breasts; he's a perverted molester who molests little girls."
“Master, I’m innocent, I didn’t do it, please believe me.”
The old sect leader frowned. To be fair, he believed in Ling Haoran.
This is his youngest disciple, with exceptional talent and a kind and upright character. He has always been diligent and conscientious in his cultivation, and deserves the title of genius.
Although he didn't know why the child had been a bit arrogant and lazy lately, he felt that the child wouldn't do such a thing.
Perhaps there's some misunderstanding?
Just as he was about to ask another question, Fugui's eyes lit up, and he stepped forward to say to the old sect leader, "Grandpa, he really is a beast who preys on little girls. I have evidence."
"You're talking nonsense, I'm not like that, Master. Are you just going to let Ah Zhen slander me like this?"
The old sect leader also felt that Ye Zhen was taking revenge out of personal interest, and was about to reprimand her when he heard Ye Zhen shout loudly to the door.
"Bring it in."
The gate opened wide, and two disciples appeared at the entrance with a small figure in tow.
Ling Haoran looked over dismissively, but when he saw who the figure was, his eyes widened in shock.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, this is the little girl that the disciples found at Senior Brother Haoran's Biyun Peak."
