Chapter 877: 877

Qin Huaichuan kept a straight face as he slowly went to take a tray and began to select his side dishes . Meanwhile, his other hand was balled into a tight fist inside his sleeve . He had almost failed to suppress the urge to charge forward and cripple Chu Li’s cultivation, even if it meant that he would be crippled of his cultivation and be driven out of the Great Light Peak .

However, a trace of rationality remained in him and stopped him from doing so . He still had a long future ahead of him and still had the chance to regain whatever he had lost later on . No one could keep winning anyway, so it was not a big deal that he had lost this time . After having learned his lesson through this experience, he was determined to improve his skills!

Meng Luo became somewhat worried when he noticed how calm and nonchalant Qin Huaichuan seemed . He lowered his voice and said, “Senior Brother Qin, leave it to me . I’ll perish together with him!”

Qin Huaichuan frowned and looked at him . “Perish together with that guy? He’s not worth it!”

“But he’s being too arrogant and aggressive!” Meng Luo muttered resentfully . “Now that he has gotten a hold of us, I’m sure he won’t let the matter drop so easily . He has asked for the Earth Matrix and Reincarnation Scripture this time . Who knows what else he’ll ask for after this!”

“Let’s just avoid him for now,” Qin Huaichuan replied and huffed . “If he continues being so insolent, he’ll certainly make a mistake at some point . Once we get the opportunity, we’ll take him out once and for all!”

“Okay . ” Meng Luo slowly nodded . “We’ll let him be smug for a few days first . Since we’re going to destroy him later, we’ll let him be as outrageous as he wants . Let’s see how much longer he can keep up his insolent ways!”

Qin Huaichuan smiled .

Sun Lihua frowned before she turned her gaze to Chu Li, who still seemed pleased with himself . “Junior Brother Zhao, you should be more careful of Senior Brother Qin . Don’t offend him anymore . ”

“We’re already enemies anyway . It’s okay for me to be ruthless towards him,” Chu Li replied with a huff . “Senior Sister Sun, don’t worry . He’s a total coward right now . He won’t dare to act so recklessly anymore . I can punish him in any way I wish!”

Mo Cuicui let out a scoff .

Chu Li glanced at Mo Cuicui with a grin . “Senior Sister Mo, if I go to the Saint and tell her how Altar Leader Mo has caused me, a new disciple, to be falsely accused of something I didn’t do, what kind of punishment will be handed down to him? Will he be demoted from an Altar Leader to a branch leader? Or will he be demoted to a normal disciple?”

“Hmph, my father didn’t do it himself!” Mo Cuicui retorted disdainfully . “You can go ahead and report him . At most, my father will be reprimanded for this!”

“That may not be the case . ” Chu Li beamed at her . “I have carefully read through the Church rules many times . In such a situation, Altar Leader Mo will be punished more severely . He will at least be demoted to a normal disciple . A more severe form of punishment would be for him to be crippled of his cultivation . ”

“Hmph!” Mo Cuicui gave a humorless laugh .

Her heart was pounding like a drum inside her chest .

There was a huge difference in the Holy Church of Light’s treatment toward disciples of different statuses . Before they became inner mountain disciples, they would be treated like pieces of dirt . No matter how talented they were, they would be cast into a dangerous situation and would have to struggle through it somehow . It would not matter even if they had failed to struggle through it and ended up dying . However, after they became inner mountain disciples, they would immediately be protected by the strict rules of the Church .

In this case, internal strife was the least tolerated offense, and if a senior were to harm a junior, the senior would be punished even more severely . No matter how competitive the disciples were, they were strictly forbidden from threatening the safety of one another .

Chu Li was still grinning from ear to ear when he said, “Senior Sister Mo, if I ever get upset, I really don’t know what I’ll end up doing . If I end up going to the Saint in a fit of anger, I can’t guarantee whether or not I’ll report Altar Leader Mo to her!”

Mo Cuicui gnashed her teeth in fury while she glared at him .

Chu Li chuckled . “You look quite scary right now . ”

Mo Cuicui scoffed and replied, “Zhao Dahe, go on and keep gloating!”

“Such an opportunity is very hard to come by!” Chu Li said while chuckling . “Of course, I should be allowed to gloat as much as I like!”

“Be careful not to celebrate so soon . Things can still go wrong for you!” Mo Cuicui muttered .

Chu Li replied, “Thank you for your kind advice, Senior Sister Mo . I’ll be careful about that . ”

Sun Lihua interrupted, “Alright now, Junior Brother Zhao . We all belong to the same sect, and we started off at the Sutra Library too . Stop being so hostile toward each other . We still have to work together when we go out and fight our enemies . ”

Chu Li nodded and smiled as he said, “What Senior Sister Sun said is right . ”

He then asked, “Senior Sister Sun, who are the parents of Cui Da and Cui Er?”

“They’re martial arts masters staying at the Fourth Peak, and they’re both famous seniors in the Holy Church of Light,” Sun Lihua replied . “They’re very skilled at using sword techniques, and they have an extremely high level of cultivation in the Divine Light Sword . They’ve been contributing greatly to the Holy Church of Light over the years . ”

Chu Li asked, “Will they try to seek revenge against me?”

“…I don’t think so . ” Sun Lihua shook her head . “They’re both clear-headed and reasonable people who have strong principles . It was Cui Da who has broken the rules, and no one has forced him to do so anyway . Since he was the one who disregarded the rules, it’s not your fault that he has met such an unfortunate end . ”

“I have to disagree though,” Song Donglin said and shook his head . “No matter how reasonable they are, it can be hard for them to judge a situation fairly when it involves their children . Junior Brother Zhao, you should still be careful of them . ”

Chu Li nodded .

“Crackle!” A streak of lightning suddenly illuminated the entire Flavorful Tower .

Chu Li looked shocked . “Is it going to rain?”

“The weather at the Great Light Peak is unpredictable,” Song Donglin replied with a chuckle . “You’ll get used to it soon . I believe there’ll be a rainstorm coming . ”

“Boom…” The mountain trembled as thunder roared like it was the end of the world .

It felt as though the entire Flavorful Tower was shaking and falling apart .

Nonetheless, Song Donglin and the others seemed calm and unaffected .

Chu Li asked, “It’s going to be a heavy downpour, right?”

Song Donglin nodded . “It should be quite a heavy downpour, but most storms and rain come and go quickly at the Great Light Peak . By the time we finish our meal, the storm should be over, so just ignore it . The martial arts field won’t be affected by the storm anyway . ”

Chu Li nodded .

Mo Cuicui began to gloat as she said, “It may not have much of an effect on us, but it’s going to affect the Spirit Medicine Nursery a lot, so shouldn’t you hurry back now?”

Chu Li frowned .

Mo Cuicui laughed . “Based on what I know, the Golden Glow Grass you’re planting now is most afraid of waterlogged soil . On rainy days, they should be covered with a piece of cloth . Otherwise, a heavy downpour can drown and kill them . They probably won’t be able to survive until the next day . ”

“I’ve heard of that too . ” Song Donglin nodded . “Junior Brother Zhao, you better hurry back as soon as possible then . ”

Chu Li shook his head . “It’s okay . ”

“When the storm comes, you probably won’t have the chance to participate in the martial arts competition next year!” Mo Cuicui laughed gleefully . “You’ll have to keep working at the Spirit Medicine Nursery then!”

“Working at the Spirit Medicine Nursery isn’t that bad . I can exchange spirit herbs for spirit pills,” Chu Li replied .

“Haha!” Mo Cuicui laughed in an exaggerated manner .

“Senior Sister Mo don’t believe me?”

“Haha, you sure can imagine the wildest things!”

“Would you dare to make a bet with me, Senior Sister Mo?”

“Sure, what are we betting?”

“If I manage to use spirit herbs to exchange for spirit pills, Senior Sister Mo will have to start calling me Senior Brother and serve me my food whenever we have our meals . ”

“In your dreams!” Mo Cuicui scoffed .

Chu Li smiled and said, “It’s okay if you don’t dare to make that bet . It seems like you still believe in my capabilities . ”

“It’s impossible for you!”

“Do you dare to make that bet then?”

“Of course!” Mo Cuicui replied with a huff . “What if you lose?”

“If I lose, I’ll steer clear of your path!” Chu Li said . “Every time I see you, I’ll stay out of your sight and make sure I never appear before you again!”

“Deal!” What he had proposed suited her desires perfectly, so Mo Cuicui agreed to it without the slightest hesitation . “We’ll go ahead with this bet . Senior Sister Sun, Senior Brother Song, be our witnesses and make sure he doesn’t go back on his words!”

“Sigh…” Sun Lihua shook her head speechlessly .

Song Donglin laughed . “Alright then, let’s go ahead with the bet . ”

Chu Li grinned and said, “Junior Sister Mo, just you wait!”

“It’s Senior Sister Mo!” Mo Cuicui huffed . “You haven’t won yet!”

“It’s going to happen sooner or later . ” Chu Li waved a hand dismissively . “You can never win this bet anyway!”

“Boom…” As the thunder rumbled again, huge raindrops began to fall and pelt around them noisily .

Mo Cuicui pointed at him with a scornful smile . “It’s raining so heavily and you still have the nerve to talk nonsense here . I look forward to seeing you cry after this!”

Chu Li said confidently, “I’m going to win this bet!”

Sun Lihua looked rather worried as she watched Chu Li .

While Chu Li had an ugly appearance when pretending to be Zhao Dahe, she was not repelled by his looks because of her admiration for her father, who had not succumbed to self-loathing . He had remained cheerful and optimistic even though his handsome face had been disfigured and mutilated . Therefore, she did not dislike ugly-looking people .

Song Donglin and the others knew about this too, so they understood why Sun Lihua would feel pity for Zhao Dahe and could tolerate him so well .
