“Pah. For Jiang Feng who’s like a vicious dog. If it were me, I would have killed such a dog. Lu, you being a villain, how dare you say that? Bah. ” Before Li Canyang finished his words, a burly teenager with a red gown and a shallow scar on his face, standing next to him, laughed, without concealing his voice.
Lu Pengfei frowned and did not reply.
Because he recognized the young boy.
It was Xiao Chengxuan.
In the Western Academy of Red s.h.i.+rts, he was second only to Li Canyang, the Setting-sun of Eight Corners. He was Li Canyang’s number one confidant and the gold-medal bully.
That guy was very rude and savage. Being opposite to Li Canyang, who was deep-minded, Xiao Chengxuan was straightforward. He dared to say anything he liked and do whatever other people dared not do. Both his talents and apt.i.tude were very tough. With powerful strength, he did not fear to die while fighting. Once provoked, he was like a chewy candy sticking to your body, one that could not be ridden of. One could not argue with such a person.
Therefore, Lu Pengfei forbore the anger in his heart and did not answer back.
In Lu Pengfei’s view, in his own current status, if he fussed about the contention of mouth and tongue with such a reckless man, he would seem to be in a disadvantageous position and it would lower his dignity. However, the matter concerning Li Yiruo helped him seize a chance. He made up his mind to hold on to it and he would not care even if the matter was made known to the high-level management of the Sect.
As long as Li Yiruo was punished, it meant that Li Canyang’s face would be lost.
It was also good for the disciples of the five academies to see clearly who was the first in the five academies at the moment and whose words counted.
“Li Yiruo beat Jiang Feng, and everyone saw it. For this matter, our Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts must get a convincing explanation. I, Lu Pengfei, don’t have a glib tongue like you, Chief Li, but I know that I must speak for my brothers. Some people bullied others under your powerful protection, but it is absolutely impossible to easily humiliate our disciples of the Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts,”
After making up his mind, Lu Pengfei slowly said that.
He did not spare a glance for Xiao Chengxuan. With his eyes narrowed coldly, he showed off a look of justice and stared at Li Canyang with a sneer.
Such words were spoken out by Lu Pengfei, the champion for consecutive three years in the compet.i.tion among the five academies, and in addition to his deliberate incitement display, not only Jiang Feng who was beaten half to death but a dozen of disciples of the Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts were showing their excited expressions.
But—
“Ugh… where is the basin? You are disgusting me; let me vomit for a while.”
Xiao Chengxuan made a vomiting gesture and said scornfully, “If this was said by Ding Hao, I would believe it, but you Lu Pengfei… a selfish and self-serving villain. You are so eager to buy people’s hearts with your glib tongue. I, bah. What have you made of the Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts and you still don’t feel ashamed to say so.”
Lu Pengfei’s face suddenly became dark.
Xiao Chengxuan was really a s.h.i.+t stick who should go to h.e.l.l. His ability to stir up hatred was no poorer than w.a.n.g Juefeng’s. Just one word made the righteous atmosphere created by Lu Pengfei with efforts become sour.
“What the h.e.l.l are you talking about?”
“Scar boy, you insulted Senior Brother Lu like that, and you are courting death!”
“Oh, what’s wrong? Can our Senior Brother Xiao not even tell the truth?”
“A group of running dogs! You just know how to humble yourselves in serving the villain Lu and lick his boots. When Senior Brother Ding Hao was in the Sect, we had never experienced such enthusiasm. I, bah! You really shame us nominal disciples of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect!”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
The disciples of the Western Academy of Red s.h.i.+rts and the Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts suddenly quarreled in the cell. Two sides were all set for a showdown with weapons in their hands. The chilly light flashed and the Qi surged…
“Shut up for me,” Lu Pengfei suddenly screamed.
His voice was like a thunder, and it vibrated in the narrow cell, creaking and echoing.
The next moment, a strong aura was overflowing from his body.
The blue-green flame filled all of Lu Pengfei’s body. It was sparkling and dazzling. It was surging like a forest sea. Everyone seemed to hear the murmuring voices of millennial old trees in an immerse forest. A suffocating pressure surged from Lu Pengfei’s body to force all people to close their mouths.
Disciples with slightly lower strength could not stand steadily and looked pale.
“Since the reasoning doesn’t make sense, let’s talk with strength!” Lu Pengfei slowly came out, standing proudly, and the slanting eyes were full of disdainful arrogance. He said faintly, “Today, our Academy must seize Li Yiruo. Anyone who’s not convinced can come out to fight with us!”
Looking around, he focused his eyes on Li Canyang with a sneer full of provocation.
At that moment, the strength and hegemony of the first in the compet.i.tion among five academies was thoroughly exposed.
As the three-times consecutive champion in the compet.i.tion among the five academies, Lu Pengfei’s strength was no longer that of one of Ding Hao’s followers in the past. When he suddenly became tyrannical, everyone at present asked themselves and no one was sure to defeat him one against one.
Li Canyang, the chief of the Western Academy of Red s.h.i.+rts was included.
“Hehe, Chief Li’s sword skill of Setting-sun of Eight Corners is exquisite and unparalleled. Today before so many brothers, I, Lu Pengfei, want to learn from you to see whether you deserve the reputation of Setting-sun of Eight Corners!”
Lu Pengfei sneered and approached Li Canyang of his own initiative.
“A shameless villain! You are still an acting chief of the Academy. Haha. What qualifications do you have to challenge our chief of the Western Academy of Red s.h.i.+rts? Let me teach you a lesson.” Xiao Chengxuan changed his face, gnashed his teeth and moved one step forward as he prepared to take action.
Despite the fact that Xiao Chengxuan had always acted recklessly, he was quite sharp at times. He knew that he could not let Li Canyang fight with Lu Pengfei that day. If Li Canyang was defeated in the fight, Li Canyang’s prestige among the five academies would be affected adversely. It would be extremely difficult to retrieve the Academy’s declining trend.
Lu Pengfei wanted to crack wisely Xiao Chengxuan’s tactics with strength.
Xiao Chengxuan absolutely could not give him that opportunity.
If the person who was to be defeated that day should be him, Li Canyang’s prestige would not be damaged, and would still have opportunities to control the situation in the future.
Unexpectedly before he took action, suddenly—
“Meow!”
A crisp meowing voice suddenly burst into the narrow cell and screamed without any warning.
Then, an incredible thing happened.
Lu Pengfei was originally overbearing. When he heard the meowing voice, his proud eyes suddenly revealed a very shocking expression. His strong and unremarkable mysterious Qi stopped abruptly. He became stiff where he was.
Looking down along Lu Pengfei’s gaze, Xiao Chengxuan focused his eyes on Li Canyang’s shoulder.
A white fat cat was squatting there.
Xiao Chengxuan had also been stunned momentarily.
Beside him, Li Yiruo’s bright eyes revealed a delightful expression and her pet.i.te body was even trembling a little bit.
