Gu Yue ignored Xiao Huan's tearful eyes beside him, saying, "Those are all crocodile tears, the gentleness of a fox!" He angrily said to Nian Xixi.
"You guys are so despicable, resorting to such underhanded tactics! I'm going to blacklist you completely!"
Even a real righteous qi pill couldn't have this effect; they've overdone it this time!
"Ancient, we didn't..."
"Stop talking! I won't believe you!"
After hearing Gu Yue's words, Nian Xixi became extremely anxious. She really hadn't expected that President Gu would be so stubborn.
Of course, it's understandable, because another interpretation of stubbornness is having one's own opinions.
For successful individuals like them, lacking independent judgment is a very dangerous thing. Because when refining elixirs, all sorts of unexpected situations can arise.
Success and failure, if not decided in an instant, will lead to two completely different outcomes. But he shouldn't have doubted his apprentice...
"Wait a moment!"
"Are you trying to explain something else? Let me tell you, I'm not listening..."
Just as Gu Yue turned to leave, Yang Lu spoke up. Hearing his words, Gu Yue sneered at him. In her mind, Yang Lu was definitely begging her to give them another chance!
But how could that be? They had already crossed their bottom line! That's right, their bottom line! But what happened next completely stunned Gu Yue and everyone around her.
"Bang!"
Yang Lu punched Gu Yue squarely in the chest. Struck by the blow, the poor Gu Yue was sent flying like a kite before crashing heavily to the ground.
"Yang Lu, what are you doing!"
When Nian Xixi saw this, her face turned deathly pale. She really hadn't expected Yang Lu to attack President Gu Yue at this moment.
President Gu Yue is not young to begin with, and now he has been hit so hard. Judging from his coughing up blood, President Gu Yue is probably in grave danger this time.
If President Gu Yue were to die here, then… Nian Xixi really didn’t dare to think about it, because the consequences would be extremely serious, and she couldn’t bear them at all.
"Don't worry, honey, I'll make him even more powerful than if he ate ten pounds of oysters! Hehehe..."
"ah……"
Nian Xixi was utterly speechless after hearing Yang Lu's words. What kind of time is this? How can you still be in the mood for such a joke?!
However, Nian Xixi could sense the calmness emanating from Yang Lu, which reassured her somewhat. In her memory, whenever he displayed such composure, there was nothing he couldn't handle.
"Master...you dare to hurt my master! I'll kill you!"
Xiao Huan, who was originally very sad, became extremely angry upon seeing this scene. She then clenched her two small fists and rushed towards Yang Lu.
Although her master had misunderstood her earlier and wanted to expel her from the sect, she wasn't actually angry. She was used to playfully bickering with her master, and she figured she could explain things to him later and he would understand.
Moreover, his master has always taken great care of him; if it weren't for his master, he probably would have dropped out of school long ago. Actually, apart from being a bit stubborn at times, he has no other flaws.
But Xiao Huan couldn't accept that this guy would hit her master's body with such a heavy punch.
Just as Xiao Huan was about to rush in front of Yang Lu, she saw him extend a fist the size of a sandbag. Xiao Huan was immediately startled. If that fist hit her, she would be turned into a meat bun!
She made a complete 180-degree turn and hurriedly came to her master's side.
"Waaaah... Master, that person looks so powerful, I don't think I'm a match for him."
"Master, don't worry, a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years! When I'm 80 years old, I will definitely avenge you myself!"
Xiao Huan, supporting her master, said with tears streaming down her face, "Master, it's not that I don't want to avenge you, it's just that my strength is limited."
The other guy was clearly a trained fighter; I couldn't even scratch him. But it didn't matter; I was probably much younger than him. By the time I was 80, he'd likely be too old to walk.
That way, I can easily take care of him! That would be a way to avenge my master.
"You really are... truly my... great disciple..."
“I’m afraid it won’t work out this time. Although I’m usually quite strict with you, I really hope you can inherit my mantle.”
"I still have a few ancient prescriptions, which I'm passing on to you now. I hope you can... cough cough..."
After hearing Xiao Huan's words, Gu Yue forced a smile onto her face.
However, he also knew that what Xiao Huan said was true. With her strength, it was simply a pipe dream for her to take revenge on him.
My body has been damaged by alchemy for years, and now this kid has seriously injured me. I'm probably not going to make it.
I've imagined all sorts of ways to die: dying in an exploding alchemy furnace, choking to death while eating... but I never imagined being punched to death!
My greatest achievement over the years has not been the number of powerful pills I have refined, but rather the collection of several top-tier ancient formulas!
I can't let these ancient remedies go to hell with me now. Although this apprentice doesn't seem very reliable usually, I'm actually very satisfied with him!
Her skills in alchemy would definitely surpass his in the future. Under these circumstances, he decided to pass on these ancient formulas to her.
