ch 113 – Lots of Drama; Beautiful Scholar (6)
With the bottles in hand, the three of them couldn’t help but to smile bitterly. They knew there were no chance of them entering the Cheng’s. Cheng Xiao Xiao’s act had left them with no more excuses.
They felt slightly better now that they have been gifted with a bottle of mystical water. Granted, they quickly figured out the real meaning behind all these and decided against proceeding any further.
“Okay, Miss Cheng. We got it, we will spread the words to the public that the Cheng’s will only resume sales activities after three months. Farewell, Miss Cheng!”
“Farewell, Miss Cheng!”
“Till next time, Miss Cheng!”
Cheng Xiao Xiao let out a light sigh after seeing them off. She hope this would buy them three months of peaceful life.
Liu Tianshan, who was still standing nearby , couldn’t help but took a look at the person standing on the hillside and asked, “Shi mei, anything else I can do for you?”
“No,” said Cheng Xiao Xiao and shook her head, “Tian Shan shi xiong, you keep surveilling this area.”
“Okay!” replied Liu Tianshan and jumped into action right away.
Cheng Xiao Xiao did not return home right away but continued to ride on the lion’s back and have him wander around.
Not too much had passed before little Yuteng appeared smiling. “Young mistress, I’ve thrown Ning Xunzong and his two friends out. Hehehe….”
“You didn’t kill them, did you?” asked Cheng Xiao Xiao in jest after hearing little Yuteng’s devious laugh.
“Dead? No. Just handicapped.”
Little Yuteng waved her arm casually, “They are so annoying, coming here over and over again. I just made sure they can never walk again!”
Sure enough, Ning Xunzong and his classmates would not be able to walk again.
As it so happened, when they were following the three deacon elders that morning, they made sure they fell behind a few miles so as to avoid detection. If one didn’t know better, they wouldn’t be able to tell that they were trailing someone at all.
It was just that their appearance was spotted by little Yuteng almost immediately. Little Yuteng, who never had any good impression about the lot, certainly would not have shown them any mercy when she was ordered to throw them out.
Once they’ve followed the elders into a small wooden area, little Yuteng ordered a white tiger to go and scare the horses. How could these normally mild tempered horses not be afraid of a tiger?
One roar from the tiger and the three were thrown off their horses. Before they could even react, a few vines whipped through the air straight at them and crushed all their knee caps.
All three of them fell on the ground at the same time and screamed in pain. What they didn’t know was that the leaves on the vine had turned into sharp blades that sliced into their legs and severed their tenders into multiple parts.
The three deacon elders on their way back happened to saw the three on the road and were shocked by the harrowing state that they were in. They recognized that one of them were Ning Xunzong so they put all three of them onto their horseback and rushed back to the Ning’s resident in town as fast as they could.
That had caused a great commotion at the Ning’s. A doctor was summoned immediately to check on the three injured people.
Everybody at the Ning’s along with the students of School of Divine Condor all waited in front of the living quarter for the doctor.
“What happened to them? How did Zhou shi di and Ning shi di sustain such serious injuries?”
“We don’t know where Zhou shi di, Gu shi di, and Ning shi di went today, all we knew was that they returned injured!”
“That looked serious, you think they went to the Cheng’s at Willow?”
“No way! Hasn’t Instructor Mu gave the order that nobody was allowed to go to Willow? They wouldn’t dare, would they?”
