Tianfu Legend Volume 1: The Whirlwind Youngster Chapter 45: Inner Disciple

  Turning around, he suppressed his disgusted expression and looked at the speaker. The person's eyebrows were raised, seemingly very pleased with himself. Looking at this small servant disciple in front of him, it seemed that he didn't dare to oppose him. With a complacent tone, he said: "Little kid, I'm in a good mood today, so I won't bother calculating with you. Come on, if you can satisfy me, I'll let you go." Gan Ping's face was expressionless as he cupped his hands and asked: "May I ask how to address this senior brother?" "Hmph, do you think you're worthy of calling me senior brother? Do you know who is in front of you? Li Xingan, Li Senior Brother, with a high-ranking cultivation base. You're just a lowly mixed breed, not worthy of being on the same level as me." Before Gan Ping could ask further, an outer sect disciple jumped out from beside him and scolded him, pointing at his nose.

  A flash of anger in his heart, he glanced at the flattering servant who jumped out to insult him. He secretly remembered the man's appearance in his mind. Ganning couldn't digest all the yuan Shen fragments because his cultivation was too low, so he couldn't remember anything from the past. He was extremely sensitive about his origin and this outer disciple scolded him as a bastard, which deeply hurt his heart. What does it matter if you are a high-ranking cultivator? On that day, Lai Ruodao, who was also a high-ranking cultivator, turned to ashes under the blade of Huaxue Shengdao, not even leaving a wisp of soul behind.

  That outer sect disciple who jumped out to flatter and fawn saw Gan Ping directly ignore him, feeling that he had lost face in front of his fellow disciples. His face flushed red with anger, and just as he was about to open his mouth again to shout and scold, Li Xingan beside him stretched out a hand to stop him. He could only glare fiercely at Gan Ping before retreating to the back. Gan Ping didn't pay attention to his expression, which seemed like he wanted to swallow him whole, but instead looked at Li Xingan, waiting to see what he would do next.

  "Li Shixiong, what crime have I committed? Which rule of the sect states that an outer door disciple must be humble and yield to an inner door disciple? Even living together is not allowed? Moreover, I have already retreated, it's you who won't let go. I'd like to ask Li Shixiong, if this matter reaches the Law Enforcement Hall, what would be the outcome?" Upon hearing these words, Li Xing'an couldn't help but change color, even his disciples behind him looked unnatural and gloomy. The Law Enforcement Hall is not to be trifled with, they don't care who you are! If they find a handle on you, they'll investigate to the end, it's not just outer door disciples, even inner door disciples fear them three parts."

  When Li Xing'an heard Gān Píng's words, his face showed a hint of emotion, but he immediately puffed out his chest and shouted loudly: "You ignorant little brat, do you think you can go to the Execution Hall and frame us? Let me tell you, even if you went, no one would pay attention to a lowly mongrel like you. Ha! Eighteen free!" After finishing speaking, he glanced at the crowd behind him with a hint of his eyes, and it seemed that those outer door disciples had also done many evil deeds by Li Xing'an's side. Seeing this, they immediately understood and rushed forward as one, surrounding Gān Píng in the center.

  Gan Ping's face was slightly cold as he sized up Li Xing An, whose expression was not pleasant. "I originally thought that everyone in the Miao Cheng Sect was a diligent cultivator, but I didn't expect to find such an evil person. It seems that there is no difference between this cultivation world and the mundane world - the strong prey on the weak, it's just the way of heaven. This Li Xing An won't make a move for now, but if he does, I'll definitely give him some trouble. However, within the sect, it's not convenient to use the Tian Mo Hua Xue Shen Jian (Heavenly Demon Blood God Sword), who knows which powerful cultivator might be spying."

  He patted the fire on the head, picked it up from his shoulder and tossed it to a nearby tree. The fire was very clever and immediately understood that its owner didn't want it to intervene, so it obediently squatted on the branch.

  A look of surprise flashed across his face, Li Xing'an gritted his teeth, just about to order the crowd to rush up and teach this damned servant a lesson. Gan Ping saw him stir and also made preparations to strike, when a series of applause sounded in his ear. The tense standoff between the two sides eased due to the distraction caused by the clapping.

  Thinking of the ten whips, everyone's face didn't look good. Gan Ping saw a disciple in green clothes standing under the tree, smiling and nodding at him, so he quickly nodded back as a greeting. He was still surrounded by this group, so he couldn't make any sudden moves.

  Li Xing An looked at the newcomer with an unpleasant expression, his face twisted in discomfort. After a long pause, he finally squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Zeng Qi, it's actually you?"

  The newcomer laughed and said: "Li Xing An, why are you still doing such boring things? Don't you have anything else to do? It's been a long time since we last met, and you still haven't made any progress."

  It has to be said that Zeng Qi's words were quite vicious, and Fang Yuanting, who was listening on the side, couldn't help but frown. No wonder Zeng Qi wasn't well-liked within the sect either. Li Xingan had indeed gone too far, but the Li family wasn't someone Zeng Qi could afford to offend. This sentence undoubtedly insulted even the elders of the Li family. As expected, when Li Xingan heard these words, the veins on his forehead bulged violently, and he glared at Zeng Qi with wide eyes, shouting: "Zeng Qi, don't think that just because you've entered the inner sect, I'll be afraid of you! Have you forgotten how you begged for mercy back then? You're still just a minor role in the inner sect, and who knows, maybe during this year's big exam, you'll be kicked out of the inner sect. When that happens, you can wear your white robes again, and I'd like to see who will stand up for you."

  Li Xingan was furious upon hearing this, his anger reaching its peak. He had originally come out to curry favor with Fang Yuanting, as the Fang family was a powerful force within their sect. If he could form an alliance with them, his own family's influence would surely increase. Moreover, Fang Yuanting was a stunning beauty, and Li Xingan had long been infatuated with her. But to his surprise, he suffered one humiliation after another - first, that servant disciple had berated him, and now Zeng Qi had thoroughly shamed him. As someone who was already proud and arrogant, Li Xingan couldn't bear the loss of face in front of a beauty like Fang Yuanting. If he were to slink away with his tail between his legs, not only would his own seniors scold him, but even Fang Yuanting would surely look down on him. Thinking this, Li Xingan cursed loudly: "Zeng Qi, you damned bastard, you've humiliated me too much!" As he spoke, he shot a glance at the outer sect disciples surrounding Gan Ping, but those disciples had shrunk back, no longer displaying their earlier ferocity as they charged towards Gan Ping.
