After being educated by Pengshan Sect, Han Qingxiu and Xiong Ao also developed somewhat rigid views on mortals.
Wu Er once said: "Cultivators and immortals are the pioneers of the human race. They should be humble and disciplined, and help mortals and their descendants escape the hardships of the mortal world."
This sentence is the first lesson that all disciples of Pengshan learn upon entering the sect, and it has a profound impact on them.
Just like those cultivators who considered mortals inferior, Han Qingxiu and Xiong Ao believed that mortals and cultivators were equal, so they couldn't understand the villagers' reaction.
After all, they are young people, only in their teens, so it's normal that they don't understand.
"Get up, no need to kneel."
This time it was Xiong Ao who spoke up. Although he wasn't the best-natured person, none of the people trained by Pengshan Sect were bad.
Therefore, he naturally did not want mortals to kneel.
The villagers below remained kneeling, but after a few calls, they were now all prostrating themselves.
It appeared extremely humble.
"Why won't you get up? I've tried to persuade you so many times."
Han Qingxiu muttered to herself, shaking her head in confusion.
Wu Er, who was watching from the side, found the two of them rather cute, like students who had just graduated and entered society, clumsily accepting reality.
From the perspective of someone who's been through it all, this kind of thing is really quite funny.
Just like when Wu Er thought he could change the world, only to be smashed to a pulp.
"Get up if you don't want to die."
Seeing that the two juniors didn't know what to do, Wu Er stepped forward to demonstrate it himself.
I casually gave them their first lesson after they left the mountain.
"Did you hear me? Get up if you don't want to die."
Wu Er shouted at the top of his lungs, his tone no longer peaceful, but full of ferocity.
Han Qingxiu, who was standing to the side, was startled, and Xiong Ao was also slightly taken aback.
This vicious shout startled the villagers below. Yes, it startled these numb people, and the numbness on their faces subsided considerably.
My kind words of advice were ineffective, but now that I'm being verbally abusive, I'm getting a response.
Wu Er forced himself to put on a villainous face, though no matter how he tried, he could never truly be a villain.
"You!" Wu Er summoned a bolt of lightning that a Foundation Establishment disciple could control. "Get up. No kneeling, and no gossiping. Go do what you're supposed to do."
Although he didn't look like a bad person, the lightning he summoned had a great deterrent effect, as people are always afraid of lightning.
After those harsh words, the villagers seemed to wake up from a dream. They were first confused, then stood up, and then dispersed to do what they were supposed to do.
Gentle treatment is completely ineffective, while harsh treatment is surprisingly effective.
Han Qingxiu looked at the villagers who had gotten up and couldn't help but open her mouth slightly, her face full of disbelief.
Xiong Ao's face was expressionless, except that he lowered his head slightly.
"Okay, it's alright, let's go."
Wu Er put away his villainous face and waved to the two who were slightly stunned.
"Why?" Han Qingxiu turned to look at Wu Er, her face full of confusion. "Why is it that gentle persuasion doesn't work, and you have to threaten them to get through?"
"Huh? You're asking about that?"
Wu Er smiled and said, "Just go down the mountain and wander around more. That's how people outside Pengshan Gate are."
After uttering this simple sentence in a profound and unfathomable tone, the lazy sect leader didn't wait for his two juniors and instead flew slowly towards the horizon, adopting an air of superiority.
While they were still pondering, the two stopped thinking when they saw Wu Er leave, and flew away together.
While flying in the air, Han Qingxiu recalled what had just happened, so she looked at Wu Er and narrowed her eyes.
He thought to himself: This Long Aotian is not right... at least his experience is much greater than mine, he doesn't seem like an ordinary disciple.
Afterwards, the three returned to the edge of the cloud boat, where many other people also returned.
Nobody wanted to go too far out in this unfamiliar place, Zhongzhou. This trip was just to get some fresh air and relieve the fatigue from being on the cloud boat.
After a while, all the disciples who had gone out for a stroll returned, and then everyone boarded the cloud boat again and began their journey.
After boarding the cloud boat, Wu Er's trio naturally disbanded.
After all, these three people don't get along, so it's impossible for them to stay together all the time.
So Wu Er leaned against the railing of the cloud boat again and began to stare blankly at the clouds on the horizon.
Just as Wu Er was in a daze, a voice transmission entered his ear.
It was his third junior brother, Zhang Wu, who asked Wu Er to come over.
Wu Er didn't ask Zhang Wu why he was being called over via telepathy, nor did he think much about it. Since his junior brother had called him, he figured he should just go.
Then he concealed himself and arrived at Zhang Wu's cubicle.
Pushing open the door, he saw Zhang Wu smiling at Wu Er and saying, "Senior Brother, look, I've brought the man for you."
After saying that, he pointed to the side with his finger.
Wu Er was puzzled when he heard Zhang Wu's words.
The person has been arrested? Who has been arrested? Whom am I supposed to arrest?
Wu Er was initially puzzled, then glanced in the direction Zhang Wu pointed.
There were three people in this small cubicle!
Three people hanging upside down!
Moreover, the three of them were not moving and their breathing was very weak, indicating that they were unconscious.
The cubicle wasn't particularly big to begin with, and with three more people hanging around, it felt a bit cramped.
Especially since they were very close to Zhang Wu, Zhang Wu pushed the three people hanging upside down, making them sway back and forth.
Wu Er tilted his head slightly and looked at the three people hanging upside down, recognizing them as well.
This is Dong Liang, whom I just met in the small village, along with his two henchmen.
