On the way back from Chen Yan's house, Liu Longhui sat in the passenger seat without saying a word, seemingly still feeling extremely down.
After all, no one would be happy if something like this happened to them. Even the most optimistic person would need several days to recover.
Liu Xiaoyuan didn't try to comfort Liu Longhui, because things like this couldn't be resolved with just a few words. After something like this happened, he had to rely on himself.
All Liu Xiaoyuan can do now is hope that he can get over this as soon as possible.
After dropping Liu Longhui off at home, Liu Xiaoyuan went to work. But as soon as he arrived at the hotel, he heard that someone was looking for him. Liu Xiaoyuan looked and saw that it was Cai Qigang and Chen Zhengyi who were looking for him.
"So it's Brother Broken Egg and Brother Drowned Chicken. What brings you two here? Are you looking for another taste of broken eggs and drenched chicken?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyuan knew that Cai Qigang and Chen Zhengyi's arrival was ill-intentioned. However, being skilled and daring, Liu Xiaoyuan was not afraid of their retaliation at all, which is why he had the mind to joke around.
The two men turned green with anger upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's address.
"Kid, don't get cocky. If you've got the guts, come with us!" Cai Qigang stood up, his tone aggressive.
"What would I do with you? Do you expect me to just throw you into the river?" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a laugh. "But let me make this clear beforehand: this time I'm not only going to soak you to the bone, I'm going to make you a featherless, drenched chicken!"
“You…” Cai Qigang was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
"Liu Xiaoyuan, don't be so arrogant. Shouldn't we settle our score?" Chen Zhengyi stood up and said.
Liu Xiaoyuan was also curious to see what tricks these two were up to, so he nodded and said, "Okay, where should we go?"
“Just come with us!” Chen Zhengyi said.
"Please wait a moment while I arrange things at the hotel, then I'll go with you!" Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyuan quickly made arrangements, having Cai Qigang and Chen Zhengyi lead the way while he followed behind them.
Chen Zhengyi and Cai Qigang led Liu Xiaoyuan to a desolate open space where the grass was very tall, some of it almost as tall as a person.
A summer breeze blew by, rustling through the thatch.
"Did you call me here to watch you pull weeds?" Liu Xiaoyuan asked with a smile.
"Hmph! Kid, today I'll show you how many eyes the Horse King has!" Cai Qigang's face immediately changed, turning extremely angry.
Chen Zhengyi's expression also changed. Just thinking about how Liu Xiaoyuan had taught him a lesson before, Chen Zhengyi was furious!
"Liu Xiaoyuan, today I'm going to let you taste the bitterness of crushed eggs!" Chen Zhengyi said through gritted teeth.
Liu Xiaoyuan crossed his arms, his expression calm and collected, and said, "Oh, then I wonder if you two defeated opponents have the ability!"
“We don’t have it, but my dad does!” Cai Qigang said, then shouted, “Dad, come out quickly!”
As soon as Cai Qigang finished speaking, a rustling sound was heard, and someone rushed over. Soon, a man in his forties stood in front of Liu Xiaoyuan. He looked somewhat like Cai Qigang, and it was obvious without any introduction that this was Cai Qigang's father, Cai Chunhua.
Cai Chunhua was a master of the peak of Dark Force, and it could be said that he had one foot in the door of Transformation Force. However, with Cai Chunhua's skills, he was nothing special in a sect like Piaoyun Valley, and at most he could only be considered an average person.
Although he was a mid-level figure in the sect, with a large number of Transformation Realm experts above him, and even Innate Realm experts suppressing him, once he went outside, Cai Chunhua was like a monkey ruling the mountain when the tiger was away.
Cai Chunhua was initially reluctant to come out, but when he heard his son say that he had been beaten again by the same person, and that his apprentice was even crying and complaining that they had kicked him into a full-fledged eunuch, Cai Chunhua couldn't sit still any longer. He wanted to see who dared to mess with his apprentice and son!
"So you're the one who hit my son and injured my disciple?" Cai Chunhua's tone was arrogant, as if he were interrogating a criminal.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at Cai Chunhua and asked, "Are you talking to me?"
When Chen Zhengyi saw Liu Xiaoyuan dare to speak to his master so arrogantly, he immediately stood up, pointed at Liu Xiaoyuan, and shouted, "Are you deaf?"
Cai Chunhua was very satisfied with his apprentice's performance and gave Chen Zhengyi an encouraging look, signaling him to keep up the good work and that he, as his master, would always be in charge!
Encouraged by his master's look, Chen Zhengyi was energized, pointing at Liu Xiaoyuan and continuing to berate him: "You brat, you don't even know you're about to die! In front of my master, even if you're a dragon, you'd have to kneel before me, and even if you're a tiger, you'd have to..."
Seeing how irritating Chen Zhengyi's mouth was, Liu Xiaoyuan appeared in front of Chen Zhengyi like a gust of wind and slapped him twice, knocking him to the ground.
Cai Chunhua was instantly enraged. How dare they hit his apprentice right in front of him? This was clearly a sign that they didn't respect him.
But then I thought about how incredibly fast that kid's movements were, something I couldn't even do myself, and I started to have some doubts.
However, upon further reflection, he realized that his son and apprentice had both said that this young man was just a hotel manager. No matter how skilled he was, it was impossible for him to be a master of internal energy at such a young age.
Although Cai Chunhua couldn't see through Liu Xiaoyuan's level of cultivation, he absolutely refused to believe that Liu Xiaoyuan was a master of the Transformation Realm. If he was already a master of the Transformation Realm at such a young age, he wouldn't need to be a lousy hotel manager; he would already be a hot commodity among various sects.
Thinking this way, Cai Chunhua was immediately full of confidence and had absolute certainty that she could make Liu Xiaoyuan understand why the flowers were so red!
"Kid, lecturing my apprentice in front of me, aren't you showing me too much disrespect?" Cai Chunhua asked, his eyes half-closed, looking like he was very angry and that the consequences would be severe.
Cai Qigang immediately chimed in, "Yes, don't you respect my father?"
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at the father and son and said, "You two are right. I really didn't take you seriously."
"Young man, you're so young, yet you're so arrogant. It seems I need to teach you a lesson!" Cai Chunhua spoke like a martial arts master, as if lecturing a junior.
"Stop talking nonsense, I'll let you make the first move, come on!" Liu Xiaoyuan waved to Cai Chunhua and said.
Cai Chunhua sneered and said, "You little brat, don't accuse me of bullying you. I'll give you three moves. Come on!"
Seeing Cai Chunhua's reckless behavior, Liu Xiaoyuan shook his head and sighed, "Since you're so reckless, I have no choice but to comply with your wishes and let you know what it's like to get struck by lightning for being arrogant!"
