Yu Chuchu's little face also turned pale in fright, and the other Lingjian disciples almost peed themselves in fear as they quickly retreated one after another.
Lin Xiaolu looked at Chen Nianyun, who was a head taller than him, and sneered as he slowly walked forward, saying, "Little whelp, long time no see."
Seeing Lin Xiaolu getting closer and closer, Chen Nianyun was also frightened and began to retreat. Lin Xiaolu continued to walk while sneering coldly, "Last time we dueled one-on-one, you lost but didn't dare admit it, and even tore up the written challenge, right?"
Chen Nianyun stammered and was unable to speak.
Seeing this, Yu Chuchu was also filled with fear, but still unwilling to back down. She bravely scolded, "Who lost! Brother Nianyun definitely didn't lose! We never dueled with you, you sneak attacked Brother Nianyun!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaolu glanced at Yu Chuchu, and she glared back at him and said aggressively, "What's wrong? You want to hit me? Go ahead and try to touch me, and I'll go tell Master again to revoke your status as an inner disciple!"
Slap!
Before Yu Chuchu could finish speaking, Lin Xiaolu slapped her down to the stone beach with a brick, and a few spots of blood seeped out from her head with her little braided hair.
"Wahhhh!" Yu Chuchu immediately held her bleeding head and cried out in pain, her voice piercingly sharp.
"Keep crying, cry for your mommy!"
Lin Xiaolu casually picked up the brick and swung it, hitting Yu Chuchu right on the head again, instantly smashing her head bloody.
The surrounding children were all frightened dumbfounded, not expecting that Lin Xiaolu would still be so vicious after being confined for three months of probation.
After viciously stomping on her twice, Lin Xiaolu scowled and scolded, "You like tattling huh, let grandpa send you on your way!" After speaking, he grabbed the wailing Yu Chuchu, dragging her like a dead dog towards the waterfall in the creek.
This scene thoroughly frightened everyone, even Dongfang Dan was shocked.
"Brother Lu, don't be impulsive!"
"Brother Lu you might kill someone!"
"Brother Lu!"
Squatting on a big rock, Xiao Yuer also glanced up at her brother, and after seeing that he was just scaring Yu Chuchu, she looked back down and continued watching the ants moving house in the cracks of the rock.
Splash!
After four months of martial arts training, strong little Lin Xiaolu threw Yu Chuchu into the shallows of the creek, then stepped on the back of her neck, pressing her entire body down into the water as her limbs flailed around.
"Wuwuwuwu~"
"Gulugulugulu~"
"Paddapaddapadda~"
Lin Xiaolu lifted his foot, and the drenched Yu Chuchu immediately crawled up, coughing violently.
"How about it, convinced? Don't falsely accuse people anymore okay?" Lin Xiaolu put his hands on his waist, looking down and scolding fiercely.
"Cough cough, cough cough." Yu Chuchu gasped for air, snot and tears flying, and just as she wanted to cry out, Lin Xiaolu kicked her back into the water again.
Yu Chuchu flailed her limbs again, and soon her small body convulsed as a stream of filth flowed out from her crotch, floating in the creek water.
"She pooped! She pooped her pants!" The surrounding children exclaimed in unison.
Lin Xiaolu lifted his foot again, his small fierce face shouting loudly, "Giving you one more chance, convinced or not? If not, I'll just drown you completely! You see if I dare or not!"
As he was about to lift his foot again, Yu Chuchu was also completely frightened and cried out loudly, "I, I don't dare anymore, wuwuwuwu~"
Seeing her plead for mercy, Lin Xiaolu arrogantly snorted, then looked towards Chen Nianyun. The not even ten years old Chen Nianyun was nearly scared to death, and immediately cried out loudly, "Brother Lu, I'm wrong Brother Lu, I don't dare anymore, really don't dare anymore."
But Lin Xiaolu didn't listen to his explanation, and directly charged over, his small body leaping high into the air and kicking him right in the face.
"Ah!"
Chen Nianyun cried out in pain as Lin Xiaolu's kick sent him tumbling butt-first to the ground. After falling down he cried out again, "Brother Lu I'm wrong, Brother Lu, I absolutely won't dare anymore, never again!"
Looking down at him, Lin Xiaolu spat, then coldly snorted at the other Lingjian disciples, "Whoever of you wants to go tattle, go ahead, but you'd better think clearly - if you tattle on me, Lin Xiaolu will get even no matter what, I keep my word!"
All of the Lingjian disciples shook with fear upon hearing this, and after Lin Xiaolu finished speaking, he called to Dongfang Dan and Xiao Yuer and swaggered back to the academy with the children who had just joined his gang.
After they left, the remaining Lingjian disciples looked at Chen Nianyun, then at the drenched and violently gasping Yu Chuchu sitting on the creek bank, before leaving one by one.
This time they were thoroughly afraid, and didn't dare foolishly follow Chen Nianyun anymore - they had come here to cultivate and seek longevity, not court death!
Covering her bloody head, Yu Chuchu sat silently crying at the edge of the stony beach, also filled with terror - for an instant earlier, she had truly thought Lin Xiaolu was going to kill her.
...
...
In an empty room somewhere in the academy, the over fifty year old Mr. Yang treated Yu Chuchu's injuries, then had her change into clean clothes herself, before frowning and asking, "How could you be so careless as to fall into the creek?"
Yu Chuchu shivered pitifully and said, "I just slipped when walking, and fell in, then also hit my head on a rock."
Mr. Yang looked at her for a moment, then asked, "Was it Lin Xiaolu bullying you?"
Upon hearing Lin Xiaolu's name, Yu Chuchu's body shook in fear, and she hastily denied, "No sir, I really just slipped and fell by accident."
Seeing the little girl so frightened, Mr. Yang could only resign himself - he was very clear on Yu Chuchu's personality. Before becoming a disciple at Emei, she had been the Sixth Princess of the mortal Jingguo Kingdom, spoiled with endless favor since childhood, and thus had developed a willful and arrogant personality since young. But this haughty little girl was now so afraid at the mere mention of Lin Xiaolu's name, it seemed things were not so simple this time.
"Rest well, no need to attend class today."
"Thank you sir." Yu Chuchu quietly thanked him.
Mr. Yang left and strode towards the study hall. The children should have been morning reading there, but as he approached, he didn't hear the sounds of reading, but other noises instead.
"Boss, Boss, is this pressure okay?"
"Mm, not bad, keep at it."
"Boss, I'll go steal my senior brother's jade ruyi tomorrow to let you play with."
"Mm, very thoughtful."
"Boss, Boss, it must have been so hard for you to be confined for three months!"
"It was fine, after all I'm gifted, my Master couldn't bear to punish me at all. Back then he was a complete mess as he tearfully begged me to come to Emei, my Master said that even if my intelligence was halved, I was still destined to become a figure whose name would be recorded in history."
"Wow, Boss is amazing!"
"Boss has great fortune and heavenly blessings, with Boss leading us, it's really our fortune!"
"Boss, you must be very powerful now!"
"That's hard to say, it depends on my condition. On bad days I'm only second to my Master when it comes to plucking stars!
"Wow, then what about on good days?"
"Good days? Below Yuan Ying I'm invincible, above Yuan Ying one for one trade! Oh yeah!"
"Wow! Boss is awesome! Boss is awesome!"
