Chapter 81: Backfired
🕑 Added 2023-06-03 16:00:56 +0000 UTC"Very well!"
"You're quite something!" Gu He glared at Hun Tiandi with anger in his eyes.
Fortunately, he refrained from attacking him. Otherwise, Gu He would have been reduced to a pool of blood by now.
Hun Tiandi had no intention of crushing Gu He like an ant.
However, if Gu He were to bite him and lay a hand on him, then it would be a different story. At that point, Hun Tiandi would show Gu He what it meant to "never humiliate a king" and "never humiliate a powerful individual."
Suppressing his rage for the sake of Yun Yun, Gu He refrained from attacking. He threatened, "You, with the surname Hun, are quite something."
"I was initially considering sparing your pathetic life if you had the sense to leave Misty Cloud Sect. But now, your attitude has completely infuriated me."
"Let me tell you, it would be in your best interest to stay within the confines of this courtyard. If you dare to leave this place..."
"I will make sure you won't have a peaceful day."
"Hmph!" Gu He snorted coldly and gave Hun Tiandi a vicious look.
"Liu Ling, let's go!" With that, he motioned for Liu Ling to leave with him.
...
As Gu He and his disciple Liu Ling departed, Xiao Yixian curiously asked, "With your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with him."
"He's so arrogant, why didn't you kill him?" Xiao Yixian had a vague understanding of Hun Tiandi's strength, which was that he was very powerful. At least in Xiao Yixian's eyes, that Pill King Gu He was no match for him.
Hun Tiandi calmly responded, "He's just an ant, easily crushed with a flick of my hand. Kill him? I'm afraid it would dirty my hands!"
"Of course, that's assuming this ant doesn't cross the line. If this ant goes too far, then I'll reluctantly crush him."
"After all, he brought it upon himself. I can only fulfill his wishes."
"Oh!" Upon hearing Hun Tiandi's words, Xiao Yixian was secretly astonished. A sixth-grade alchemist was considered an ant in his eyes, so how powerful must he be?
It was terrifying to think about it!
Hun Tiandi looked at Xiao Yixian and said, "Address me as Young Master or Master from now on! Your way of addressing me makes me slightly uncomfortable!"
"Yes, Young Master!" Xiao Yixian nodded and bowed slightly to Hun Tiandi. In front of such a powerful individual, what harm was there in lowering her head? Besides, she relied on him to suppress her condition.
However, there was still a hint of frustration in her heart as she murmured, "We agreed that I would be your sister, but in just a few days, I've become a servant! Has love shifted?"
"Hmm!" Hun Tiandi nodded in satisfaction. Xiao Yixian had good talent. There would be an opportunity in the future for them to be on equal footing, but not now.
She was too weak at the moment, not even qualified to be his servant. But... he could make an exception for her and give her this chance.
...
As Gu He left, he grew angrier the more he thought about it. He stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at the courtyard where Hun Tiandi resided.
Liu Ling also sensed Gu He's fury and didn't dare to speak. He stood respectfully by Gu He's side.
"Damn it, just a little white-faced boy, yet he dares to speak to me like that! He's simply seeking death!" Gu He muttered angrily.
Then he turned to Liu Ling and said, "Liu Ling, find two disciples from the Alchemy Hall to keep an eye on this place. If that little white-faced boy dares to come out, give him a good beating, a thorough beating, until smoke rises from his ears. Especially beat that face that's slightly handsomer than mine."
"Yes!" Liu Ling nodded hurriedly in response.
Gu He stood there for a while, muttering to himself, before finally leaving in a disgruntled manner.
...
After dealing with some matters in Misty Cloud Sect, Yun Yun arrived at the courtyard. Naturally, she noticed the presence of two disciples from the Misty Cloud Sect's Alchemy Hall guarding the entrance.
"Sect Master!" The two disciples didn't hesitate and immediately knelt down, respectfully greeting her.
"Please rise," Yun Yun glanced at the two disciples and calmly spoke, "Thank you, Sect Master," the two disciples stood up, keeping their heads lowered, not daring to look at Yun Yun.
In their eyes, the Sect Master was an awe-inspiring figure, and even a single glance would be disrespectful to her.
Yun Yun asked, "What are your names?"
The two disciples replied, "This disciple is Yang Dianfeng!"
"And I'm Gou Ride," the other disciple answered.
"Hmm," Yun Yun nodded slightly and continued, "I assume you are both disciples of the Alchemy Hall?"
The two disciples nodded, saying, "Yes, Sect Master."
Yun Yun remarked, "Since you are disciples of the Alchemy Hall, why aren't you staying there and instead came here?"
Yang Dianfeng replied, "Sect Master, we are here following Elder Gu He's orders."
"Gu He?" Yun Yun's eyebrows slightly furrowed upon hearing the name.
Yun Yun inquired, "What did Gu He ask you to do here?"
"This..." Yang Dianfeng and Gou Ride hesitated upon hearing Yun Yun's question. They exchanged a glance, both sensing the hesitation in each other's eyes.
"Speak!" Seeing their hesitation, Yun Yun furrowed her brows slightly and spoke in a stern voice.
Realizing that Sect Master Yun Yun was getting angry, Yang Dianfeng and Gou Ride trembled slightly, clearly intimidated. After all, they were just ordinary disciples, how could they afford to offend the Sect Master of Misty Cloud Sect?
In a trembling voice, Yang Dianfeng answered, "Reporting to the Sect Master, we were ordered by Elder Gu He to guard this place and beat up the little white-faced boy if he dares to come out. Beat him until smoke rises!"
"Insolent!"
Yun Yun rebuked in a deep voice!
Little white-faced boy? Is Hun Xiu a little white-faced boy? He's definitely not a little white-faced boy.
Although he is handsome in appearance, and his temperament is somewhat refined, he is also an extraordinary powerhouse.
He easily annihilated the Purple Crystal Winged Lion King with just a finger. Such a presence being referred to as a little white-faced boy?
They're practically seeking death!
If Hun Xiu were to get angry, who in Misty Cloud Sect could withstand his fury? These guys are simply ignorant and arrogant!
They almost caused the entire Misty Cloud Sect to be buried with them. Fortunately, Hun Xiu didn't mind.
Otherwise, these two individuals would have turned into a pile of yellow soil, and even the entire Misty Cloud Sect would have become ruins!
...
The more Yun Yun thought about it, the uglier her expression became, filled with gloom. An aura seemed to emanate from her, faint yet palpable.
...
"Sect Master, spare us!"
"Sect Master, spare us!"
"..."
...
Yang Dianfeng and Gou Ride were so scared that they kneeled down, trembling, repeatedly kowtowing to Yun Yun, begging for mercy!
They could sense it.
The usually gentle Sect Master was truly angry this time. They had just joined the Misty Cloud Sect, the number one sect in the Jia Ma Empire. They didn't want to be expelled.
Even more so, they didn't want to die. They were planning to make a name for themselves in the Misty Cloud Sect! To bring honor to their ancestors. After all, they were both from ordinary families.
"Hmph!" Yun Yun let out a cold snort.
In her view, Hun Xiu didn't make a move because he couldn't be bothered to deal with these insignificant ants.
Yun Yun spoke, "Both of you, go back to the Pill Refining Hall and bring Gu He here to see me."
"Have things really gone the other way around? Who is the true Sect Master of Misty Cloud Sect?"
"Yes!"
"Yes!" Upon hearing this, Yang Dianfeng and Gou Ride didn't hesitate. They quickly got up, lowered their heads, and hurriedly left as if escaping.
