541 – Angry Chastising; Ruining of the Martial Emperor (5) [Bonus Length]
“Old Man Ying, beat up this man for me. Do to him whatever you want, just make sure you don’t kill him,” said Cheng Xiao Xiao to the man next to her. She no longer wanted to look at that face anymore.
“HAHAHA…”
Old Man Ying laughed out loud happily. “Not a problem, Miss. I will be happy to teach him a lesson.”
SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!
Came a series of sounds of someone being slapped.
Everybody was shocked beyond words. Old Man Ying looked like he was having a good time and the normally supercilious First Elder just stood there like a dead dog and letting Old Man Ying do to him whatever that pleased him.
Cheng Biyuan had a complicated look on him and couldn’t be bothered to keep on watching that. He only had one thing on his mind and he gave Cheng Xiao Xiao a questioning look.
Cheng Xiao Xiao sent the words to his ears, “Dad, don’t worry. I have already found grandma. She was indeed kept captive by that scumbag First Elder!”
“Really, Xiao Xiao? Where is your grandmother now? Is she inside the dimension?” Cheng Biyuan was ecstatic and communicated back to his daughter using the same method.
“Yes, I have collected grandma into the dimension for the time being. But she isn’t in the best of shape. She will need some treatment, but don’t worry, Dad. Little Yuteng will be able to help her.”
“Oh, good. I feel much better now that we have found your grandmother.”
“Dad, of course we only acted after we have found grandma. What do you wish for us to do now? Should we reveal everything in front of everyone?”
“Xiao Xiao, no matter what. We need to preserve your grandmother’s decency. We can’t just discuss this openly. Perhaps, we can talk after we have collected them all…”
“Dad, you might be good at taking examinations, but this is not practical. One way or another, the Cheng’s had fallen victim of an outside was the truth. Revealing the truth might hurt grandma’s reputation, but we can also clear her name.”
“That…”
Cheng Biyuan was really worried about it. If they didn’t review the truth, his mother would still be misunderstood by others. If they revealed it, she’d become a laughing stock. He felt torn.
“Dad, as long as you live in this world, others will talk about you. No matter who you are and whether you are a nice or bad person, others will talk about you. We just have to be ourselves. If we resort to living for others’ words, how are we going to live our lives? If others say it’s good, we’ll be good people? If others said bad, we’ll be bad people? That’s not possible.
“Plus, grandma is the victim. I trust that others will feel compassionate toward her. She didn’t do anything wrong. They were forced on her. Grandma wasn’t at fault. So, I think it’s okay to let the world know that.”
“Okay, if you say so. You do what you see fit. I’ll leave it up to you.”
“Thanks, Dad.”
Having communicated with her father, Cheng Xiao Xiao had a plan. No matter what, they must reveal First Elder’s crime and let everybody find out what had happened.
After several hundreds of slaps, Old Man Ying finally had his fun and stopped.
“KEKEKE, old little kid. What about now? You ready to share where you were from yet? Why did you want to harm the Cheng’s that had raised you? Why didn’t you repay their kindness with such heinous crimes? I trust that you have a million reasons. Why don’t you start now?”
“PFFT!”
First Elder spit out a mouthful of blood. He snickered and, he didn’t care if they turned his head into a pig’s head. He just has on him a look of contempt.
He would never admit to it. Even if it was the true, it was not the same as long as he never admitted to it!
“Old scumbag. What are you still so prideful about? Didn’t you say there was no martial monarch at Sacred Land Zhongyuan? Well, how was it? Enjoying being slapped by Elder Ying?”
Elder couldn’t stand his arrogant look and mocked him.
First Elder looked over at him when he heard him. He stared at Elder like a venomous snake and said, “You will regret about this. I promise.”
“Regret?” Snickered Elder. He pointed at First Elder and shouted at him, “Old scumbag. Did you really think that there is no antidote to the poison that you’ve fed to me? HAHAHA. Don’t even think about it in this lifetime!”
“You…” First Elder’s look changed colors again. His sharp look was still staring at him as though he wanted to see right now Elder and see if he was truly able to be rid of his poison.
He didn’t believe it a bit. He didn’t believe that he had found the antidote. He knew full well that he was the only one how has the antidote. Nobody else would be able to save him.
Thinking of that, First Elder maintained his look of contempt.
“Scum, stop dreaming already!” Elder was still radiating killer’s intent, but he hasn’t acted upon it yet.
Right at this moment, Old Man Ying heard the order in his ears. “Ruin all of his cultivation. Then take that Cheng Bihua who wasn’t far from him to use as leverage.”
With a slight nod, Old Man Ying reached out his palm.
BAP! BAP! BAP! BAP!
First Elder, who had ruined so many others’ cultivation, let out a horrible shriek. It was finally his turn.
Members of the Capital City Cheng’s changed colors. Some of them had wanted to lend a helping hand, but they stopped after merely a slight move.
The looked at First Elder, how a piece of garbage, with complicated looks.
Cheng Yutang couldn’t help himself anymore. He shouted straight at Cheng Biyuan, “Bast*rd! What do you want?”
The First Elder’s cultivation being ruined mean bringing down the Cheng’s from the foundation. There would be no more chance for them to rise up again. That was like destroying all hopes of his.
“What are you? You think you have the rights to be shouting over there?” Cheng Xiao Xiao’s look was icy cold. Her eyes filled with disgust toward him!
