Chapter 160: Elder Li Ping.
Translator: 549690339
That night, in an immortal’s cave on the scholartree Yin peak.
In the study room that was decorated in an ancient manner.
Li Ping’s face was gloomy as he sat on the cloud Bed.
Not far away, Li Wu’s face was deathly pale. He trembled as he knelt on the ground, not even daring to breathe.
“Do you know where you went wrong?” Li Ping asked indifferently.
Li Wu kowtowed heavily and said in a low voice, ” “I shouldn’t have harmed my fellow disciples ...”
Before he could finish his sentence, he had already suffered a heavy kick!
Li Wu flew out and hit the stone wall. He didn’t dare to delay at all. As soon as he slid down, he immediately got up and knelt down again in a hurry without wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“How much is the fine for murdering a fellow disciple?” Li Ping sneered. &Quot; you’re right to avenge si Guang. After all, you’re uncle and nephew! Even if the sage sect was particular about the law of the jungle, there was still a difference between the inside and the outside. It’s a good thing that you care about your nephew.”
“There’s no problem with asking for spirit stones from your aunt!”
&Quot; her aptitude is low, and her children and grandchildren have all passed away. Rather than wasting the resources she has saved on herself, it’s better for you to use them. At least you’ll be able to grow a little. &Quot;
&Quot; but before you make a move, can you check the other party’s background first?! &Quot;
He raised his voice. &Quot; you brainless thing! That PEI Ling has been in the sect for less than a year. In just a few months, he broke through from the fourth level to the ninth level of the Qi refining stage. Do you know what this means?”
&Quot; he’s extremely talented. Even the number one genius of the outer sect, han sigu, didn’t have such a cultivation speed ten years ago! &Quot;

“Can you tell what he’s cultivating?”
“Blood ghost escape technique, Blood Fiend blade technique!”
&Quot; I’m afraid that ordinary outer sect disciples have never heard of these two secret Arts. Even if they are lucky enough to come into contact with them, they are not qualified to practice them. &Quot;
&Quot; not only did this PEI Ling learn it, the inner sect Punishment Hall has yet to find trouble with him. It’s obvious that he has connections in the sect, and his status is not low, enough to break the norm! &Quot;
“Even Zheng Jingshan didn’t get such treatment back then!”
&Quot; he has excellent aptitude and sufficient backing. Given time, this PEI Ling’s future will be boundless. &Quot;
“Judging from his strength, he’ll definitely reach the genuine Foundation establishment stage after the great outer sect tournament ends, and then he’ll enter the inner sect. In a few decades, he’ll be able to enter the core formation stage and even surpass me!”
“You idiot, you don’t know anything, you don’t understand anything, and you provoked such a strong enemy for this old man. Do you want to kill my entire Li family?”
“Father, I know I was wrong!” When Li Wu heard this, his already pale face became even paler. He hurriedly apologized, ” I was muddleheaded. I heard that yiniang had saved up a large number of spirit stones for si Guang, and Si Guang was usually very respectful to me. When I was registering, I happened to meet PEI Ling and thought it was an opportunity ... &Quot;
“I’m doing this because I’m worried that PEI Ling is still fine after si Guang’s death, and it would seem like the Li family is afraid of him ... I know I’m wrong! I won’t dare to do it again!”
As he spoke, he kowtowed. Li Ping looked at him expressionlessly and said after a long while, ” “Go down and receive thirty whips.”
“Wanyutian congheng’s death was quick enough and did not reveal a single word. That PEI Ling did not know about your little tricks at all, otherwise ...”
“I’ll give you a light punishment this time to make you remember.”
“I’ve already made arrangements for your aunt.”
“Remember, I don’t want something like this to happen again!”
“Otherwise, even if you’re my own flesh and blood, don’t blame me for not considering our father-son relationship!”
Seeing Li Wu’s trembling agreement, Li Ping’s expression softened and he said in a deep voice, ” “PEI Ling’s matter ends here! You’re not allowed to mention it in the future, and you’re not allowed to provoke it in the slightest!”

In the lanchun courtyard.
PEI Ling had just returned and had yet to cultivate when he heard Xiao CI’s report, saying that someone outside the cave was seeking an audience.
He frowned slightly and conjured a water mirror to take a look. He was startled.
It was PEI Hongnian.
After some consideration, PEI Ling opened the restriction and let Xiao CI lead the other party to the main hall to serve tea.
From the moment PEI Hongnian entered the room, he was in a daze.
Especially when he saw the tea set that Xiao CI was carrying. The five-petal sunflower was attached to the Golden Butterfly Flower tea bowl, and the front and back sides were engraved with the runes of gathering spirit and cleansing dust, making the water that was poured into it extra transparent and clear.
Of course, the tea leaves were also spiritual tea. Whether it was the taste or the richness of spiritual power, they were much better than the ones that the PEI family had worked hard to get. The water used to make the tea was spiritual spring water from the underground. It was sweet and rich, and also a little cold. This kind of chill didn’t hurt people, but instead made the person who drank it feel refreshed.
Just this scene alone shocked PEI Hongnian and made him subconsciously panic.
He carefully held the teacup, afraid that he would break it and not be able to afford it.
PEI Ling did not mind. These tea sets, tea leaves, spring water, and the like were all plundered from the Han family manor. It just so happened that the lanchun villa lacked daily necessities. He simply threw it all to Xiao CI to deal with. He took a sip of tea. Although he thought it tasted good, he didn’t take it to heart.
The main thing was that with his current cultivation, the improvement brought by this spirit tea was almost negligible.
It was better to take an extra Supreme-grade bone-tempering pill than to spend time complimenting.
A moment later, just as PEI Ling was about to ask PEI Hongnian why he had come, PEI Hongnian spoke first.”PEI, PEI Ling, when did your cultivation become so high?”
PEI Hongnian’s mood was very complicated at the moment.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNot only did he find out that this clan brother of his was no longer the same as before, his financial resources had reached an unbelievable level. He also did not expect that PEI Ling had already reached the ninth level of the Qi refining stage without a sound!
During the day, he had followed sun Yinglan. When he heard that PEI Ling was going to participate in the preliminary round of the outer sect competition, he had thought that this clan brother had gone crazy.
With the thought that it would be a waste not to earn spirit stones, he had even secretly taken out all his assets to bet on PEI Ling losing. In the end, he had lost everything ...
After that, he had been watching the battle in Arena C.
This was because Qian wenchu, who was in Arena C, had a cultivation level of Qi disciple level 9. He was handsome and had a forthright personality. He was the most famous heaven’s favorite of the scholartree peak, and his reputation was even above that of Tian congheng.
Sun Yinglan had admired him for a long time. She had woken up early today and dressed up so that she could go and cheer for him. PEI Hongnian and the others had been following sun Yinglan the entire time. Naturally, they also surrounded the vicinity of Arena C, not leaving even half a step.
When they heard that Tian congheng had been killed in an instant, many people went over to ask him and sun Yinglan about PEI Ling. However, he only wanted to please sun Yinglan, so he did not take it seriously and brushed it off casually.
It was only later, after sun Yinglan was pulled to the side by a Senior Sister and had a soft conversation with her, that she actually came over to ask PEI Ling about it. She even asked him to explain everything in detail. Only then did PEI Hongnian feel that something was wrong.
After the preliminary round ended, PEI Hongnian followed behind sun Yinglan. From afar, he saw that PEI Ling was among the three victors. He also heard people discussing that Tian congheng had died under PEI Ling’s blade. Senior brother Fang Ye, who was at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage, had also been eliminated by PEI Ling’s blade!
Only now did PEI Hongnian realize that this clan brother of his had already become the dark horse of scholartree Yin Peak’s preliminaries and was hailed as the new heavenly pride!
PEI Hongnian’s heart was in turmoil, and he had mixed feelings. He only heard PEI Ling say briefly, ” “During this period of time.”
After saying this, PEI Ling saw that PEI Hongnian was a little dazed and could not help but feel bored.
“The family still doesn’t know about your matter.” PEI Hongnian composed himself and said, ” if my father knows that you have advanced to the preliminary round of the outer sect competition, he will definitely be very happy. &Quot;
“Yes,” PEI Ling replied indifferently.
His heart was calm. He didn’t hate the PEI family. After all, they raised him. However, he didn’t have any thoughts of gratitude or repayment.
Everyone just had to mind their own business.
He had nothing in common with this clan brother of his, and seeing that he was only talking nonsense, he felt that it was a waste of time. Just as he was about to find an excuse to dismiss him and go back to his cultivation, Xiao CI reported, ” “Master, someone has come to visit again.”
PEI Ling frowned and summoned a water mirror to take a look. It was sun Yinglan at the door.
