Chapter 39: Brewing
When the news reached Li Chenming's ears, the young master of the Punishment Hall was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Challenge me? A freshman disciple dares to challenge me? I wonder if you Ling Yu is too confident or has something to rely on, or you say that you don't believe that Cheng Zhiyue can save your life, and you want to use this to attract the attention of others and buy time for yourself?"
Xu Qianxiao, who was standing beside Li Chenming, asked, "What is Senior Brother Chenming going to do?"
Li Chenming, who was sitting on the jade chair, tapped the armchair with five fingers of his right hand, squinted his eyes and said: "There is no reason not to accept the challenge, if he wants to find death, then send him to death! Although Meijian Villa has a clear rule that if a disciple dies in internal fighting, he will be sent to the second layer of Purgatory Peak, but it is different when he goes to the battle platform, and he is conceited of life and death!"
Xu Qian frowned, and asked puzzledly: "Why do you want to keep him for three months, send him on the road directly, and then seize the treasure, wouldn't it be more direct?" Besides, going to the battle stage with a freshman disciple as Senior Brother Chenming is a joke in itself, and it doesn't mean anything to you whether you win or lose." ”
Li Chenming naturally wouldn't tell Xu Qian about his subjection to Cheng Zhiyue, and explained in an alternative way: "The purpose of Ling Yu's move is probably to attract the attention of the people above, so that those elders can cast their eyes and notice him, a new disciple, if he suddenly dies at this time, what do you say the people above will think? Ling Yu's challenge to me is incomprehensible, if he dies unexpectedly, I am afraid that he will become the focus of attention at that time." ”
Xu Qian wanted to let Ling Yu die as soon as possible, so that he could enter the punishment hall early, he encouraged: "He is a small person, who will pay attention to him, there is no object for grandstanding, senior brother suggests that the sooner the senior brother shoots, the better, so as not to leak the treasure and attract the attention of others, and cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Li Chenming glanced up at Xu Qian, and said coldly, "Are you teaching me to do things?"
Xu Qian hurriedly explained: "Don't dare." ”
Li Chenming snorted coldly, "Pay attention to your identity, what I say you do, as for your so-called suggestions, you don't have enough weight for me to listen to your suggestions now." ”
There was an imperceptible anger in Xu Qian's eyes, and he nodded and said yes.
Li Chenming got up, stood with his hands and looked out of the door, and muttered: "Ling Yu sent himself to the door to find death, you Cheng Zhiyue can't coerce me, I am still worried about how to erase my handle in your hands, I originally wanted to destroy Ling Yu and spread the news that he was carrying a treasure, but in my identity I said that a new disciple had a strange treasure, and I didn't fight for it, but leaked the treasure out, and I was afraid that no one would believe it." Now that the opportunity has come, just take advantage of this challenge to force out the secrets of Ling Yu's body and draw all your attention to him, when the time comes, will you Cheng Zhiyue threaten me first, or will you try your best to win the treasure? I am looking forward to listening to the Chao Pavilion, the Tibetan Scripture Building, and the Pill Pavilion that few guys have all come out to seize the treasure, I will see how you deal with it!"
Li Chenming's eyes flashed, and he smiled alone: "If you lose everything, it would be great if you have the opportunity to pull out this thorn in your eye." ”
Li Chenming smiled on his face, and it didn't go away for a long time, after Xu Qian saw it, he thought that this young master was having a convulsion, and said with contempt in his heart: "A freshman disciple wants to challenge you by name, it's not ashamed, and you're still smirking here!"
Li Chenming didn't know how long it took to laugh before he relented, he turned around and ordered with an expressionless face: "For these three months, you can't go to Ling Yu without my orders, if I find out, don't blame me for sending you to Purgatory Peak." ”
Xu Qian dared to say a word, nodded and said, "Obey the orders of my senior brother." ”
Li Chenming pondered for a moment and ordered: "After the challenge is over, I will tell my father about your entry into the punishment hall, but before that, you need to do one thing for me, you go to the assessment institute to keep an eye on Cheng Zhiyue, and report to me as soon as he has any moves." ”
Xu Qian was startled, and let one of his outer disciples stare at Cheng Zhiyue, if this was discovered, he might be missing an arm and a broken leg, he hurriedly shook his head and said: "Senior brother, my cultivation is low, I'm afraid that I will be discovered before I get close to Cheng Zhiyue, let me stare at him, I'm afraid it's not appropriate." ”
Li Chenming said lightly: "It's no better to do this as a disciple of your outer sect, no one will pay attention to a little person like you, and besides, it's not for you to enter the assessment academy area to stare at it, you just need to stare at it in the martial arts training ground, as long as you see him go to the New Life Court, or the disciples of the Assessment Academy go to the New Life Court, you will report to me as soon as possible." ”
Xu Qian thought for a while, and wondered: "Senior brother, I'm afraid it won't work for three months, I have a duty, and I will go back to the Dandian to guard the pass in another twenty days, originally I was guarding the pass this month, because I was punished in the Purgatory Peak, the Dandian gave me a month to recover, and during this time, Jin Cheng was guarding the pass instead of me, if I let him guard the pass for me, he was afraid that he would not agree." ”
Li Chenming said lightly: "It's simple, I'll go to the Pill Pavilion later, and I'll say that you have become a disciple of my Punishment Hall, and the inner disciples don't need to guard the gates, you go and do what I explained, and I will deal with the rest." ”
Xu Qian's heart was overjoyed, and he swore that "I will keep an eye on the martial arts training ground for the past three months." ”
Li Chenming waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”
Xu Qian bowed slightly, made a full posture, and then turned to leave.
......
After Cheng Zhiyue got the news that Ling Yu was going to challenge Li Chenming, his first reaction was that Ling Yu was overwhelmed, and the second reaction was that he couldn't figure out Ling Yu's purpose for doing this, wasn't this going to die by himself?
Cheng Zhiyue, who was sitting at the jade table drinking tea, sometimes frowned, sometimes his eyes showed doubts, and on his left side, there was a young man who was about the same age as him, this young man was estimated to have just arrived, and he was a little thirsty, so he picked up the tea on the jade table and drank it all.
The young man put down the teacup and said to himself: "Zhiyue, you should have heard the news that just came out of the freshman court, right? Tsk, this Ling Yu is a little interesting, a freshman disciple wants to challenge Li Chenming, this can shock me, do you say that this Ling Yu is sick in the brain or is a fool himself, there is nothing to challenge Li Chenming, if you don't want to live, you can jump directly from the Tianshan Mountain, although Li Chenming is a garbage, but it is not something that a freshman disciple can challenge, and what is even more ridiculous is that this Ling Yu also made the news known to almost everyone. Hey, I'm curious about Li Chenming's reaction to this garbage, did his face turn black in an instant?"
It can be seen that this young man has a good relationship with Cheng Zhiyue, and he is directly referred to by his name.
Cheng Zhiyue's thoughts slowed back, he took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "I admire this Ling Yu's courage a little, since he knows Li Chenming's person, he must also know Li Chenming's identity, and he dares to challenge in this situation, no matter what the purpose, at least he is very courageous." ”
The slightly sturdy young man pouted and said, "Courage, I think it's the courage to find death!"
Cheng Zhiyue smiled and said meaningfully: "A person who can pass the assessment can come out alive in the Yulin Mountain Range, which is surrounded by strange beasts, Hui Yong, do you think he will be stupid?"
The sturdy young man surnamed Luo Minghuiyong asked, "Could it be that there is any mystery here?"
Cheng Zhiyue nodded, "It should be purposeful." ”
Luo Huiyong was interested and curious: "What is the purpose? Want to be famous in Meijian Villa and let everyone know that there is such a number one person as Ling Yu?"
Cheng Zhiyue smiled dumbly and said: "I don't know about this, I probably have this purpose in it." ”
Luo Huiyong didn't know the contradiction between Ling Yu and Li Chenming, nor did he know the deal between Ling Yu and Cheng Zhiyue, the corners of his mouth hooked, hooking disdain, "I just came to Meijian Villa and didn't cultivate well, I tossed blindly, this kind of person is destined to not go far on the road of cultivation." ”
Cheng Zhiyue was noncommittal, he couldn't understand why Ling Yu did this, the only thing he could think of was to attract attention, but in this way it was a little unreasonable, could it be that he didn't trust himself, didn't believe that he could protect him for half a year, and wanted to test and tempt? In addition to this purpose, Cheng Zhiyue couldn't think of any other intentions for Ling Yu's move.
"Although there is no suspense about the outcome of the challenge, I would like to see Ling Yu. ”
Luo Huiyong, who is a junior disciple of Chengzhiyue according to his seniority, spoke again, and said happily: "I don't know what kind of reputation this Ling Yu can cultivate in three months, I estimate that at most, he will improve his physique a little, and if he goes to the battlefield, he will die if he can't stop Li Chenming's punch." ”
Cheng Zhiyue shook his head and said softly: "Hui Yong, you are wrong, I heard that this Ling Yu was already a spirit refiner before participating in the assessment, and he could block Li Chenming's two punches at the worst." ”
Luo Huiyong was slightly surprised: "It's a spirit refiner? No wonder he is so arrogant, he dares to be confident in himself? Zhiyue, his cultivation realm will not be higher than yours, right?"
Cheng Zhiyue said lightly: "It's only the early stage of the Strength Realm!"
Luo Huiyong grinned and said: "That can block Li Chenming's three punches from dying, and then I have to take some time to take a look." Do you want to go along? ”
Cheng Zhiyue drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, and said without thinking: "Go, I'm also curious, what kind of trick is this Ling Yu playing." ”
Luo Huiyong suddenly had a kind of expectation, if Li Chenming was beaten down by Ling Yu, wouldn't it be very exciting? Thinking about that kind of scene, Luo Huiyong had the idea of letting them go to the battle platform to duel immediately, and when Li Chenming was beaten, he watched Li Chenming vomit blood next to the battle platform, and then took the opportunity to laugh a few words, how beautiful it was.
As soon as he thought of this, Luo Huiyong couldn't help but look forward to it: "Zhiyue, if Li Chenming is beaten beyond the power to resist, do you think I should go to the battlefield to cheer him on?"
Cheng Zhiyue was stunned for a moment, crying and laughing, his little junior brother's thinking is really a little different, how can he be powerless to resist the spirit realm of one turn of strength and spirit realm of the second turn of spirit realm? !
Cheng Zhiyue understands the character of his junior brother, he is completely a big boss, directly filters his words as a joke, and then wants to send him away, so as not to talk here endlessly, "Hui Yong, you came to me today to find me something?"
Luo Huiyong grinned and said: "It's okay, just come and take a look, and by the way, I'll tell you about the battle in three months." ”
Cheng Zhiyue sighed, and then looked at Luo Huiyong.
I never thought about it, Luo Huiyong didn't understand it at all, and he kept saying it.
In the end, Cheng Zhiyue said helplessly: "Senior brother, senior brother, I am ready to cultivate." ”
Luo Huiyong poured himself a cup of tea and drank it, got up and said, "Then I'll go first." ”
Looking at the back of Luo Huiyong leaving, Cheng Zhiyue shook his head to himself, and after a few breaths, he got up and came to the door, looked in the direction of the martial arts training ground, and said in a low voice: "Ling Yu, I want to see what tricks you want to play!"
