"By the way, I just met a strange little fellow!"
"A strange little fellow?" Chi Ling blinked at Chi Yu.
"He ran away as soon as he saw me, as if he was very afraid of me..." Chi Yu said.
"Ran away when he saw you?"
Zhang Ergou, running out from the back mountain, returned to Chunyang Peak without stopping.
The sky was already bright.
Disciples of Chunyang Peak also came out one after another to absorb the essence of heaven and earth and consolidate their cultivation.
Seeing Zhang Ergou fleeing in a panic, they all showed confused expressions.
"Did this junior brother stir up trouble with someone powerful again?"
"Ever since he arrived, our Chunyang Peak has never been peaceful. He's truly a troublemaker."
Zhang Ergou ignored the low murmurs around him, glanced back, and patted his chest with lingering fear.
"Let me go, I didn't steal anything." While Zhang Ergou was lost in thought, a familiar voice reached his ears.
"You little wench, you're still lying. I clearly saw you enter Master's room."
"Taking advantage of Master's absence, did you take something you shouldn't have?"
"Don't even look at your status. You're just a wild girl Master brought from outside. Do you really think Master values you?"
"Sister Cuilan!" From a distance, Zhang Ergou saw a group of people surrounding a familiar figure.
Wasn't that his Sister Cuilan?
At this moment, Liu Cuilan was surrounded by a group of people. Several female disciples were holding her, and some even slapped her face.
Clear palm prints remained on her fair face, looking particularly glaring.
Liu Cuilan tried her best to explain, but these people paid no attention.
Even more outrageous, some male disciples secretly took the opportunity to grope Liu Cuilan while she was being held, extremely lewd.
"I told you, I just went in to see if Master was here. I had a few questions I wanted to ask him."
Tears were about to stream down Liu Cuilan's eyes, but she still tried her best to endure.
"Still quibbling. You and that troublemaker Zhang Ergou are no good birds." As she spoke, a female disciple raised her hand to slap her.
Before her palm could fall, her arm was tightly gripped by a hand.
"Are you tired of living?" Zhang Ergou's voice was icy. Liu Cuilan was his inverse scale.
Seeing Zhang Ergou, the surrounding crowd instinctively took a step back. Even the female disciples holding Liu Cuilan let go.
Although Zhang Ergou had only been at Chunyang Peak for a short time, he was clearly an anomaly.
He was not comparable to ordinary new disciples. In less than a month, he had severely injured two Foundation Establishment disciples of Xiayang Peak.
Seeing Zhang Ergou appear, they had to consider if their heads were truly made of iron.
"Not cultivating properly and bullying a new disciple who just joined, what kind of senior brothers and sisters are you?"
Zhang Ergou swept his cold gaze over the surrounding Chunyang Peak disciples.
"If you want to fight, come at me. Let's spar?"
The surrounding disciples hurriedly gathered: "Someone saw her enter Master's room."
"I suspect she stole Master's treasure." The leader was a female disciple with a cold and clear face.
"Exactly. Not absorbing spiritual energy in the morning, but deliberately entering Master's room when he's not here. Who knows if she really stole something."
"I didn't!" Finally, Liu Cuilan's wronged tears flowed down.
The moment she saw Zhang Ergou, all her grievances erupted.
"I just went to see if Master was here. I had some cultivation questions I wanted to ask him."
Hearing this, Zhang Ergou's expression grew even colder.
"Little wench, you dare to lie? You've only been here for a few days. Isn't meditating and cultivating difficult?"
The leading disciple, Xu Jiao, reprimanded.
"Believe it or not, I'll beat you until you confess!"
Clang!
The sound of a spear cutting through the air rang out: "Try hitting me again?"
Her icy gaze made Xu Jiao shiver.
"What, in broad daylight, you dare to hit a woman?" Xu Jiao shrieked.
Her scream attracted many disciples who came out for morning practice at Chunyang Peak.
Seeing the crowd growing larger, Xu Jiao became even more brazen: "Zhang Ergou is bullying female disciples with his strength! Everyone, come and see!"
Zhang Ergou laughed in anger: "Bullying female disciples, hehe, in my eyes, Zhang Ergou, there's no distinction between male and female."
"Only family and enemies!"
He immediately swung his palm towards Xu Jiao's face.
Slap!
A bright red palm print appeared on her fair face, and Xu Jiao immediately started shouting.
"He's hitting me, he's hitting me! Zhang Ergou is hitting me!"
Zhang Ergou said nothing and swung another slap.
Xu Jiao quickly retreated in fear.
The surrounding disciples all reprimanded: "Zhang Ergou, out of consideration for your fellow disciples, you should be forgiving."
"Senior Sister Bai always said this guy was a troublemaker, yet he disregards fellow disciple camaraderie."
"Exactly. Can't you resolve any grudges peacefully? Why resort to violence!"
"All of you, get lost!" Zhang Ergou immediately swung his Ghost Spear Tianwen.
The scene instantly descended into chaos. Someone deliberately fanned the flames, accusing Zhang Ergou.
As the chaos began, some people used spiritual energy, and a melee was imminent.
Soon, blood was seen.
Zhang Ergou held his spear horizontally in front of him. Any disciple who charged forward was swept away with a single strike.
During the fight, he seemed to see Xu Jiao, who had been the most vocal, hiding behind the crowd.
She looked at Zhang Ergou with a sinister smile.
It seemed that everything unfolding before him was within her calculations.
The gathering and fighting among the disciples of Chunyang Peak eventually alerted the Disciplinary Hall.
Soon, a group of disciples in purple robes forcefully ascended Chunyang Peak.
Leading them was a pale-faced, dignified disciple. He was the personal disciple of the head of the Disciplinary Hall, Song Zhinan.
Song Zhinan, holding his sword, arrived at the scene of the brawl. He inspected the injured disciples and then glanced at Zhang Ergou and Liu Cuilan standing nearby.
"The sect rules prohibit unauthorized fighting. Don't you know that?"
Song Zhinan sternly questioned.
"Senior Brother Song, you must uphold justice for us!" Xu Jiao reappeared, covering her face with tears in her eyes. Su Dan Novel Network
"Senior Brother Song, Zhang Ergou relies on his strong cultivation, disregards fellow disciple camaraderie, and ignores sect rules. You cannot let him go."
"He dares to bully fellow disciples with his powerful strength, it's truly hateful."
The crowd at the scene was truly indignant. Some wished they could imprison Zhang Ergou right then and there.
Song Zhinan looked at the noisy crowd and smiled strangely: "Zhang Ergou, come with me to the Disciplinary Hall."
Zhang Ergou put away Tianwen and said indifferently, "Let's go. Who's afraid of whom!"
"Ergou, it's all my fault. If there's punishment, it's my fault. It has nothing to do with you." Liu Cuilan grabbed Zhang Ergou's clothes and said hurriedly.
Saying this, she started to follow Song Zhinan and the others.
