"Hehe, good, that's spirited! I like spirited people like that!"
After Zheng Ningshuang lashed him more than a dozen times, Zheng Nansheng's back was covered in welts.
Enraged, she kicked Zheng Nansheng in the head several times.
"You have to change it whether you like it or not! From today onwards, your surname is Gou (Dog)! Ah—"
Zheng Ningshuang cried out in surprise and was thrown to the ground.
Luo Qiufeng heard it too, and he wanted to see who dared to mess with the young lady of the Immortal Venerable's Mansion.
He threw Chu Yiming, who had turned into a bloody mess, and flew to Zheng Ningshuang's side. Upon seeing the newcomer, he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Immortal... Immortal Venerable!"
Zheng Kaiyuan gave him a single glance, and Luo Qiufeng couldn't take it, so he immediately knelt down!
Zheng Ningshuang coughed up blood. Seeing Zheng Kaiyuan's anger, she became very cautious in her speech.
"Father...it was him! They disrespected me first!"
"Take the young lady away and lock her in the dungeon! She is not to be released until the Immortal Demon Tournament is over! Anyone who dares to plead for her will be locked up too!"
Zheng Kaiyuan's few instructions left Zheng Ningshuang dumbfounded:
"No, no, Father! Don't lock me up there, I was wrong! I was really wrong! Father—"
Zheng Ningshuang was dragged away by two guards.
Zheng Kaiyuan untied Zheng Nansheng from his restraints, fed him a high-grade elixir, and handed it to a disciple of Yueyun Manor.
Chu Yiming was more seriously injured. Ye Wan, who had broken free from the servants' encirclement, immediately rushed to Chu Yiming's side and transferred spiritual energy to him.
That's all she knows how to do.
Seeing Zheng Kaiyuan approach, Ye Wan shielded Chu Yiming behind her.
"You big bad guy! You're not allowed to hurt my senior brother!"
Zheng Kaiyuan had met Ye Wan before and heard from Fu Jiuzhou that the child had some mental deficiencies, but was an upright and loyal good child.
He slowly approached Ye Wan and said softly, "Child, your senior brother is seriously injured. If he is not treated in time, his life will be in danger. I am here to treat him."
Ye Wan didn't believe it, her whole body bristling: "I don't believe it! That wicked woman calls you dad! She's a little devil, you're a big devil!"
Zheng Nansheng felt a little better. Seeing Ye Wan trembling all over but still protecting Chu Yiming, he felt a little touched.
Even if Ye Wan is mentally impaired, as a third-tier cultivator, she must be able to sense Zheng Kaiyuan's immense strength.
Shaking is instinct, not moving aside is affection.
If Zheng Kaiyuan really had malicious intent, how could she, with her frail body, possibly withstand it?
Knowing full well that it's a dead end, only a fool like Ye Wan would do that.
Zheng Nansheng took a few steps closer to Ye Wan, making sure she could hear him:
“Miss Ye, this is the Celestial Venerable. He won’t go back on his word. Look, since he arrived, the bad guys haven’t hit us anymore.”
us.
Zheng Nansheng was very clever; he grouped himself, Ye Wan, and Chu Yiming together as "us."
Whether human or animal, after going through a calamity together, they will instinctively choose to stick together.
They refer to those who stick together as "we".
Because they are one of "us", they are even more trustworthy.
