I didn't expect that it was just a momentary lapse in judgment.
When Dean Guo saw Xu Yuehuai again, his eyes involuntarily reddened. With tears in his eyes, he looked at the girl in front of him, with a thousand words on his lips, but when he opened his mouth again, he didn't know what to say to make their relationship closer.
The Jin family head, lying on the ground, was spitting out blood continuously, looking extremely disheveled, which made people frown.
Standing before the Jin family head, Xu Yuehuai exuded an aura of dominance that made people afraid to approach him. At this moment, Xu Yuehuai seemed like a god who could only be admired from afar and not profaned, inspiring awe in all who beheld him.
As if sensing something, Xu Yuehuai turned her head and met the gaze of Dean Guo, who stood there with a weathered face. She concealed her sharp edges and walked towards Dean Guo.
Everyone was worried that the Jin family head on the ground would suddenly get up, eat something, and continue to cause trouble. However, even after Xu Yuehuai had walked up to Dean Guo, the Jin family head on the ground did not make any move, but just kept wailing and spitting blood.
With a look of bewilderment in his eyes, Dean Guo pointed at the person on the ground and asked, "What exactly happened?"
Xu Yuehuai casually explained, "He was just someone who didn't know his own limitations and wanted to challenge something. I just subdued him."
Xu Yuehuai didn't explain the matter further. She didn't want to waste her precious time on it. The most urgent thing was to explain things to them and force the Jin family head to find out where his pills came from, so as to solve the problem at its root and prevent future troubles.
Although Xu Yuehuai easily defeated the Jin family head, she discovered something else entirely. At the very least, she was certain that what the Jin family head ate that day was not from the third floor. There was absolutely no way such an item could exist on the third floor.
Therefore, if they want to know about or find the elixir or the person behind it, they have to follow the line above to investigate.
"Tell me, where did you get this pill? If you tell me the truth now, I might spare your life. Otherwise, you can go to the underworld with your son." After exchanging a few words with Dean Guo and Dean Fu Jia, Xu Yuehuai turned to look at the Jin family head on the ground.
She exuded an oppressive aura, a feeling that made it hard to breathe. Dean Guo looked at the child in front of him, nodded, and felt a surge of relief in his heart.
But more than anything, I feel sorry for him.
The Jin family head on the ground slowly raised his disfigured head. His jet-black hair turned white in an instant, and the wrinkles on his face became more obvious, as if his skin was about to fall off to the ground. It was a very creepy sight, and many people covered one of their eyes, showing a look of disgust on their faces.
"How did he become like this? Could there be something wrong with the pill he took? It's true that evil people reap what they sow! Now he's reaping what he sowed!"
"Yeah! Did they really think being a tyrant was so easy? Now they've shown him the real power involved, it wasn't easy at all."
The Guo family disciples, the Qingcheng Academy disciples, and those who had been dismissed by the Pu family were all rebuking the person in front of them. The Jin family head lowered his head and reached out to touch his face, but when he saw the skin on his hand, he couldn't help but scream, his eyes filled with fear, "Ah! I... how could I become like this! Impossible! Impossible! Something must have gone wrong!"
The Jin family head shouted, raising his hand to touch his face again. He shook his head, unable to believe that he had really become like this. He curled up on the ground in fear, holding his head, looking like he was begging for mercy, his eyes darting around.
Xu Yuehuai looked at him without showing any pity. Everything he was suffering now was just the consequence of the time he bullied others.
All of this is what he deserves; why should anyone pity him?
Xu Yuehuai walked up to him, reached out a hand, lifted the man's chin, her eyes filled with coldness and murderous intent. "If you still choose not to say anything, then you will probably be the one who dies here. Have you thought it through? Are you really not going to say anything?"
Xu Yuehuai's move was a complete threat. She could see that the Jin family head really wanted to live. What else mattered in the face of life? And in the face of life, anything could be sold.
At least the Jin family head was that kind of person. He looked at Xu Yuehuai with pleading eyes, as if he had grasped a lifeline. His voice was hoarse, and he looked several degrees older than before as he said, "Please save me, Miss Xu, save me! I'll tell you, whatever you want to know, as long as I know it, I'll tell you everything. Please save me first!"
He clung fearfully to Xu Yuehuai's sleeve, terrified that he would be abandoned and treated as a pawn.
Xu Yuehuai was not in a hurry. Instead, he looked the person in front of him up and down. After playing with him for a while, he leisurely asked, "My question is, where did you get your pills from, and why did your cultivation suddenly increase?"
"I don't know. Someone gave me a pill, saying it could quickly improve my cultivation. I was skeptical and didn't take it right away, but later I found out it really worked, so I put my doubts to rest." The Jin family head spoke very quickly, as if he was worried that if he spoke too slowly, Xu Yuehuai would stop saving him.
"Because I didn't believe it at first, I didn't eat it. But when I was fighting with Grandpa Pu, I couldn't beat him, so I had no choice but to try this method. I never expected it to work so easily. I succeeded completely by accident! I don't know what it is, let alone who gave it to me." The man spoke in a very anxious tone.
Xu Yuehuai looked at him, trying to discern the truthfulness of his words, but when she saw only fear in his eyes, without a trace of falsehood, it was as if she had expected it all along.
Xu Yuehuai stood up, looked up at other places, and ignored the Jin family head who was begging for mercy on the ground. She was not a great philanthropist, and it would be a waste of her pills to save such a scumbag.
When the Jin family head saw Xu Yuehuai's cold and aloof demeanor, he knew he had been tricked. But at this point, he couldn't bring himself to say anything to blame her. He could only keep begging for mercy, hoping that Xu Yuehuai would change her mind. But all of this was just his imagination. Until he breathed his last, he couldn't even get a glance from Xu Yuehuai.
