“Heh… this kid is quite ruthless!”

Gu Xiaoxian looked at Li Yun's arrogant appearance and was slightly startled, but his eyes just flickered, with no intention of stopping him.

But this infuriated Cao Wantong!

To be fair, although Cao Wantong was not a Celestial Human, let alone an unreachable Supreme expert, as a Soaring Sky Realm expert in the entire Eastern Cloud Continent Martial Arts World, he was definitely a well-known figure.

When had he ever been called an old dog to his face like this?

This was practically a direct insult, an absolute great humiliation.

If it were any other person present who cursed him like this, even Gu Xiaoxian, he would definitely not think twice, draw his sword immediately and kill, and would not stop until the sky and earth were turned upside down.

But it just so happened that the one cursing him was Li Yun, and he was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.

How could he possibly react?

Kill him, and then wait to be hunted down by Chen Jiuxu with nowhere to go?

But to just bottle up all this anger like this was absolutely impossible.

In utter helplessness.

Cao Wantong could only vent towards Gu Xiaoxian.

“Outrageous!”

“Gu Xiaoxian, is your Heavenly Martial Sect really going to bully others like this?”

“To let such a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man insult me like this?”

“Aren't you afraid of causing controversy if this gets out?”

Gu Xiaoxian smiled mockingly: “Don't, don't say that, as you said yourself, he's just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old young man, still a child…”

“You drew your sword and tried to kill him without a word, how could he not be full of anger?”

“What's wrong with a wronged child cursing you a couple of times?”

“You're already so old, are you still going to argue with a child?”

“You…”

Cao Wantong was already angry enough, and hearing Gu Xiaoxian's words, he felt like he was about to explode.

He finally understood.

It was absolutely impossible to get justice in front of Gu Xiaoxian, this old thief who protected his own.

“Alright, we'll see!”

Cao Wantong simply stopped arguing with Gu Xiaoxian, took Xu Yourong and turned to leave.

However, Li Yun clearly did not intend to let him leave just like that.

“Old dog, you haven't apologized, dare to take one step?”

“Today, if you dare to leave like this, tomorrow I will definitely bring the Sect Leader to Anle Marquis Manor, I mean what I say!”

Cao Wantong couldn't help but turn back angrily, glaring at Li Yun with extreme fury, and then shouted at Gu Xiaoxian: “Gu Xiaoxian, are you really not going to intervene?”

“Just let him be so presumptuous?”

Gu Xiaoxian sneered: “I can't control this, he is a Disciple of Lingyun Pavilion, I am the Outer Sect Grand Elder, how can I control him?”

“However, I advise you, it's best to listen to him and just apologize to him.”

“Otherwise, this kid will really act up!”

“And I also have to tell you, this kid is now the apple of my Sect Leader's eye, held in her hand for fear of dropping, held in her mouth for fear of melting… In order not to let this kid suffer any grievances, she expelled thousands of disciples and dozens of Elders in one go.”

“If this kid really goes and bothers my Sect Leader, asking her to get revenge for him… Heh heh, my Sect Leader will most likely really make a trip to Anle Marquis Manor!”

Hearing this, Cao Wantong felt a tingling sensation in his scalp.

He didn't quite believe Gu Xiaoxian's words.

But, what if it was true?

Wouldn't he have to flee for his life then?

However, even if he risked his life and fled, he might not be able to escape a Supreme expert who was determined to kill him.

For a moment, Cao Wantong was really in a dilemma.

He really regretted getting involved in this matter.

He was just a guest expert of Anle Marquis Manor, not a servant of Anle Marquis Manor, and it had nothing to do with him if Xu Yourong was really killed.

If there was a fight, it should be between Anle Marquis Manor and Heavenly Martial Sect themselves.

With his intervention, the blame had fallen on him instead.

What the hell was this?

Yet, Li Yun was unrelenting, urging impatiently: “Old dog, are you going to apologize or not? It's fine if you don't apologize… Elder Gu, please help me tie up this old dog, I'm going to personally kill that idiot Princess!”

“What… you despicable… you still want to kill me?”

Xu Yourong, who was beside him, saw that Li Yun had such a great background and had already forced Cao Wantong into a difficult position, yet he still threatened to kill her, and was immediately scared out of her wits.

“Uncle Wantong… hurry up and apologize!”

“Isn't it just an apology? You apologize to him, and we can leave quickly, otherwise he will still kill me…”

Cao Wantong couldn't help but glare at Xu Yourong, and if he could, he really wanted to slap this spoiled Princess to death.

Damn it, what do you mean by 'isn't it just an apology'?

It sounds easy.

If he, Cao Wantong, really apologized today, even if others knew he was forced, he would still become a laughing stock.

From now on, he would never be able to hold his head up in the Eastern Cloud Continent Martial Arts World.

But did he have a choice?

Seeing Gu Xiaoxian's eyes subtly glance towards him, with a faint hint of wanting to restrain him, Cao Wantong's heart grew even colder.

He cursed inwardly, Gu Xiaoxian is a lunatic…

Things had come to this point.

He absolutely could not let Princess Mingguang die here, otherwise he would not only offend Heavenly Martial Sect, but also add Anle Marquis Manor.

At that time, all the blame would be placed on him.

That would be more than just not pleasing anyone and being caught in the middle.

Thinking of this.

Cao Wantong could only grit his teeth and accept his loss: “Alright, I apologize, it was my fault just now, I shouldn't have bullied the young and spoken carelessly.”

Saying that.

He actually took out a jade box from his Pregnant and threw it towards Li Yun on the ground.

“This is a Heaven Tiger Thorn Fruit I just found, consider it compensation, let's let this misunderstanding end here and be written off!”

Li Yun took the box and glanced at Gu Xiaoxian.

Gu Xiaoxian nodded subtly.

Li Yun understood, it was about enough, it was fine to use the tiger's skin as a banner, but there should be a limit, otherwise if Cao Wantong was really pushed too hard and fought desperately, they might not be able to gain the upper hand.

So he stopped while he was ahead.

“Alright, then let's write it off!”

Li Yun stopped cursing, and happily put the jade box into his Pregnant, in fact, he had secretly sent it to the Heaven Origin Ring.

Seeing Li Yun just accept the Heaven Tiger Thorn Fruit that he had painstakingly obtained, without even saying thank you, Cao Wantong felt even more heartache and resentment.

He made up his mind to find an opportunity in the future to kill Li Yun, in revenge for the humiliation he suffered today.

But he didn't know that Li Yun was also thinking the same thing at this time, to cut the grass without removing the roots, it will grow back in the spring breeze, and he would also find an opportunity in the future to destroy Cao Wantong and Xu Yourong, and even Anle Marquis Manor…

But soon, Cao Wantong hurriedly left with Xu Yourong.

He was afraid of staying any longer and being insulted by Li Yun or Heavenly Martial Sect again.

Gu Xiaoxian also laughed and floated down.

He patted Li Yun's shoulder and said: “Alright, you kid are ruthless enough… A mere Houtian Martial Artist, actually daring to bare your fangs and claws at a Soaring Sky Realm expert like Cao Wantong…”

“Heh heh, just using the tiger's skin as a banner, borrowing power, you jest…”

Li Yun looked a little embarrassed.

But Gu Xiaoxian just glared at him, pretended to be angry and hit Li Yun on the head, saying lightly, don't do this next time!

This made the Inner Sect Disciples who had followed them to the forest feel speechless.

This was a bit too fake, wasn't it?

Truly impressed!
