Chapter 229 Heartbroken!
"Ding Dong, the host has not been managed for more than 24 hours. This system will forcibly manage it in one hour."
Su Qing, "???"
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Damn it!
Why has the mandatory custody period been shortened?!
An hour later...
How could she find a safe place to stay in such a short time?!
Duan Tian turned his gaze towards the disciples around him with a deep regret in his eyes, "Master... ultimately failed to live up to your expectations."
Upon seeing this, Fu Chen quickly stepped forward and comforted him, "Master, please don't blame yourself too much. We don't really blame you, really!"
After hearing this, Duan Tian's expression relaxed slightly, but he still caught the subtlety in Fu Chen's words.
"It's not very strange," doesn't it still have a bit of blame in it?
I feel sad.
I just want to drink a few sips.
Duan Tianxia subconsciously reached for his waist, but found nothing.
He almost forgot.
It seemed that his wine gourd was also thrown on the gambling table, and he forgot to take it back!
"Master, the wine gourd is here." Fu Chen took out his master's wine gourd, and after a brief hesitation, returned the wine gourd to Duan Tian.
If the master is determined to become decadent, no matter how much they do, the result will probably be the same.
Duan Tian's eyes lit up slightly.
But the moment he took back the wine gourd, he showed a hesitant expression.
This wine is a life-saving medicine for him!
If he hadn't been using this drink to numb himself and escape reality, he would have collapsed long ago...
"You guys...go back." Duan Tian turned away dejectedly, "Master wants to be alone for some time."
Fu Chen whispered, "Big Brother, Master, wouldn't you like to send us away and then have a drink in secret?"
Si Lihua was silent.
He really hoped that Master could come to his senses.
But if Fu Chen is right, it is not impossible.
After all, they had already been extremely disappointed with Duan Tian, and it would not be something that could be done overnight to trust him again.
The corners of Duan Tian's mouth twitched slightly.
This brat.
Do you really think that his master is old and blind?
With his level of cultivation, not to mention that there was less than two meters between them.
It’s just a hundred meters, several hundred meters away!
If he really wants to hear it, what can be hidden from his ears?
"Master, won't you go back with us?"
Duan Tian was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head.
He is used to being outside.
Even if I agree to go back now, I'm afraid I can't stay.
not to mention..
Duan Tian felt that he needed some time.
"In that case, let's listen to Master." Si Lihua winked at Fu Chen and Su Qing.
Although Master did not express anything.
But Si Lihua felt vaguely.
Perhaps Master is really reflecting on himself.
"Let's go back first..."
"Today, none of you can leave!"
Zhang Manguan, accompanied by his steward and an old man, appeared in front of Su Qing and the others.
"It's you!" Su Qing recognized Zhang Manguan at a glance, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.
Isn’t this guy the owner of that gambling house?
What's wrong with him.
Could it be that he was chasing me because of those spirit stones?
"My little beauty, we meet again." Zhang Manguan stared at Su Qing, with no concealment of the obscene intent in his eyes.
That's right.
He came here just for the little beauty in front of him.
Of course, there are also the spirit stones, gold, silver and jewelry that they won from their own gambling house!
Perhaps those spirit stones are nothing to cultivators.
But for mortals.
Those spirit stones are enough to allow a dozen mortals to live comfortably for several lifetimes!
"How dare you come here?" Fu Chen rolled up his sleeves and stood in front of Su Qing and the others. "Just now, you blatantly plotted against my junior sister in the gambling house. I haven't settled the score with you yet. Do you really think I don't have a temper?"
Zhang Manguan's small eyes were half-closed, revealing a cunning and greedy look. "As long as you hand over this little beauty and those spirit stones, I promise to let you leave this place unharmed. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Chen's nose was almost crooked with anger. "Bah! You dare to go against my Junior Sister's ideas with your kind of idiot? Just wait and see how I teach you a lesson!"
Si Lihua's eyes were fixed on the old man next to Zhang Manguan.
This person is definitely not an ordinary person!
Moreover, with his cultivation level at the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm, he was unable to discern the old man's realm.
not good!
This person's realm is probably at least the Nascent Soul Realm!
"Fuchen, come back!"
Si Lihua wanted to remind Fu Chen, but unfortunately she was still a little too late.
At this time, Fu Chen had already taken action.
He wants to teach this fat guy a lesson!
Monks cannot kill mortals at will, but that doesn’t mean they can’t beat them up!
Just when Fu Chen approached Zhang Manguan.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Fu Chen's pupils suddenly shrank.
What a fast speed!
Now he has reached the peak of foundation building. Although this level of strength is not the best in the sect, it is also considered to be outstanding!
This old man is a monk? !
As soon as this thought came to mind, a big hand had already firmly grasped his fist.
Si Lihua's expression suddenly changed, and she shouted sternly, "Stop!"
A scornful smile appeared on Wu Chen's lips, and the palm holding Fu Chen's wrist suddenly tightened, as if he wanted to crush the bones.
"Ah--" Fu Chen let out a shrill scream, his fist making a heart-pounding cracking sound in Wu Chen's iron-like hand, as if it would shatter at any time.
Wu Chen's eyes flashed with coldness, and his tone was full of disdain. "With this old man here, you, a young man, dare to act rashly. You really don't know your place!"
Just when he was about to make up his mind to completely destroy Fu Chen's arm, a sword light carrying a biting chill shot out like lightning, pointing directly at his face.
Wu Chen's face changed slightly, and he was secretly surprised, but his hands moved without hesitation. He immediately let go of Fu Chen's wrist, turned his body to the side, and narrowly avoided the deadly sword light.
Before he could see who was trying to plot against him, several sword energies enveloped him.
Wu Chen snorted coldly, flipped his wrist slightly, and instantly summoned a shiny black bell.
The bell swayed gently in the air, making a series of clear and pleasant sounds with strange power, which actually dissolved the several sharp sword energies that were coming towards it one by one, eliminating them completely.
But before Wu Chen could feel proud.
“Crack!”
I saw that a tiny but noticeable crack had quietly appeared on the surface of the ancient and mysterious black bell.
"My treasure!" Wu Chen's face turned ashen in an instant, as if suddenly attacked by the cold winter wind. He raised his head abruptly, his eyes wide open, staring straight at Su Qing not far away.
Su Qing stood there, a playful smile on his lips, his eyes filled with a hint of teasing: "Oh, I'm so sorry, my hand slipped and I think I used a little too much force."
Wu Chen's face was so gloomy that it looked like water was about to drip out.
