You can't even call someone by their name now, it's so hard to be a person...
"Sister Muling..."
Snap!
Another slap rang out, followed by Mu Ling's icy voice.
"nausea!"
"Little Sister Mu Ling?"
Li Zhu tentatively called out...
Snap!
Li Zhu still couldn't escape being slapped, this time Mu Ling's reason was "I'm older than you..."
"Elder Mu Ling?"
Snap!
"We're not from the same sect..."
Li Zhu's face was swollen from the slaps. Thinking back to how he had previously made the Marquis slap others, it was indeed somewhat humiliating...
However, now is not the time for self-reflection. He has figured it out: Mu Ling is intentionally taking revenge on him, but because Xiaolongnu is here, she doesn't dare to kill him directly!
However, given what happened, as a proud elder of the Sword Pavilion, he must have been holding back his anger. In this situation, Li Zhu was definitely the best target for his anger. Who else should he hit if not Li Zhu?
After figuring all this out, Li Zhu simply stopped talking. He figured that speaking would only get him beaten, so he might as well stay silent…
Snap!
Another slap rang out, and Li Zhu covered his face, completely bewildered. How could he be hit if he didn't say anything?
"I don't like the way you look at me..."
Li Zhu thought to himself, "Damn it, thank you so much! What did my gaze have to do with you?" But he only thought this to himself and didn't dare say it out loud. He'd get beaten up even if he didn't, and if he did, he'd probably get beaten even harder...
Li Zhu simply closed his eyes. Since you don't like my gaze, I won't look at you, okay?
Snap!
Things always turn out so unexpectedly. Li Zhu had already given up resisting, but he still couldn't avoid being slapped. This made Li Zhu feel like a million alpacas were stampeding through his mind. He wanted to shout, "What the hell is this all about?"
"How dare you ignore me?"
Li Zhu finally understood that he was going to get beaten up no matter what. He silently comforted himself, thinking, "A good man doesn't fight with a woman..."
He actually wanted to rebel, but his strength wouldn't allow it, so he could only console himself...
"Li Zhu, there will be no future between us. It's best to forget everything that happened today. With your current strength, you're not even worthy of carrying my shoes, do you understand?"
Hearing these words, Li Zhu also lost his temper. He opened his eyes, looked at Mu Ling, and said firmly.
"Sooner or later, I will make you submit to my power..."
Since I'm going to get beaten up anyway, I might as well be tough and at least get some venting, which is better than just getting beaten up...
After saying that, Li Zhu closed his eyes and waited to be beaten, but Mu Ling didn't hit him for a while. When he opened his eyes, he found Mu Ling staring at him intently. After they looked at each other, Mu Ling's icy voice rang out.
"You remember what you said: I look forward to the day when your strength surpasses mine..."
After saying this, Mu Ling was about to turn and leave, but at that moment, Wang Riqing and Yuwen Yingying coincidentally appeared at the door. The two stood there in shock, their mouths agape, clearly unable to accept what they were seeing...
The atmosphere became strange for a moment. Wang Riqing looked at her master, and tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. This scene was simply too much for her to accept...
One was her mentor, and the other was her lover…
This scene filled Wang Riqing with utter despair; all she wanted now was to escape this place, to escape it all…
Before anyone else could speak, Wang Riqing drew his sword and slammed it into the ground. He then turned and ran, disappearing in the blink of an eye…
Mu Ling raised her hand as if to say something, but her usual image was too deeply ingrained in people's minds, and this situation was something she had never anticipated. Therefore, she had no idea how to stop Wang Riqing and could only watch helplessly as he left…
Li Zhu, this scumbag, was completely dumbfounded. It was his first time being a scumbag, his first time encountering a love triangle, and with absolutely no experience, his mind was a mess...
Only when Wang Riqing had disappeared into the distance did he realize he should have chased after him, but by then it was too late…
"Leave Qingqing to me, you'd better take care of yourself..."
The most awkward situation belongs to Mu Ling. She was already a teacher, but in the end, she ruined her reputation. If it were anyone else, it wouldn't be so bad, but her daughter and her disciple were both in love with this man...
The moment Mu Ling left, Xi Yu and Fei Xing caught up with their men. However, Mu Ling did not reappear, but her voice rang out in mid-air.
"Look what you've done! Go back and all of you, and go to the Cliff of Repentance to reflect on your actions..."
Upon hearing her master's words, Xiyu remained relatively calm, but Feixing and the other female disciples' expressions immediately changed, their faces filled with bitterness...
They desperately wanted to explain that Wang Riqing's escape had nothing to do with them, that he was attacked by a snake, but Mu Ling clearly didn't want to give them a chance to explain. With a sigh, everyone left the East Palace dejectedly…
It was only then that Li Zhu realized he had seemingly lost Wang Riqing…
Such a scene would be hard for anyone to accept. Who would have thought that one day they would be fighting with their own master for a man?
"Hi…"
Li Zhu sighed, feeling as if he had been completely drained!
"Brother Zhu, did I do something wrong...?"
Upon hearing Xiaolongnu's words, Li Zhu was stunned for a moment, because he had no answer to this question. After all, if he hadn't acted impulsively just now, such an embarrassing scene wouldn't have happened...
Even if he's a scumbag, he wouldn't go so far as to abandon someone after pulling up his pants!
"You...you did nothing wrong..."
Li Zhu said bitterly, feeling Xiaolongnu take his hand, he didn't resist, but he looked at Yuwen Yingying expectantly and asked...
"Waaah, you won't abandon me, will you?"
"Brother Zhuzhu, I'm with you..."
These words deeply moved Li Zhu; he hadn't expected that Yuwen Yingying wouldn't give up on him even at this crucial moment…
"Qingqing...Qingqing...Is that you back?"
Just then, Wang Yanzhang burst in, yelling. Seeing Li Zhu with one woman in each arm, his face darkened, and he inwardly cursed Li Zhu as a scumbag…
However, he had no time to concern himself with Li Zhu's quirks. Upon hearing that his daughter had returned, he rushed over immediately to check if she was injured...
"Where is Qingqing?"
Wang Yanzhang completely ignored Li Zhu's dismissive gaze and directly asked at the top of his lungs.
"It's lost again!"
Li Zhu replied calmly.
Lost again?
Wang Yanzhang looked at Li Zhu with some confusion. If it's lost, it's lost. Why add "again"?
"Your Highness, does this mean my beloved Qingqing has not returned?"
Wang Yanzhang asked in confusion!
"You're back..."
Li Zhu answered truthfully!
"Where is she?"
Wang Yanzhang asked, puzzled.
"Lost again..."
"What do you mean?"
"It means exactly what it says..."
Wang Yanzhang's CPU was about to overheat; he couldn't understand the meaning behind Li Zhu's words at all...
