Chapter 120: The Junior Just Wanted to Ask for Advice
Tian Jinzhong was stunned.
He looked at the helpless-looking Lao Tianshi.
"Senior Brother?"
"Why are you looking at me?"
Lao Tianshi glared at Tian Jinzhong, but after sweeping his gaze over Tian Jinzhong's restored hands, he sighed.
"Lin Xuan has done a favor for my Tianshi Mansion; what can your senior brother do?"
"Then couldn't Senior Brother just pretend this matter never happened?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Jinzhong asked with a strange expression.
"No, Junior Brother, your hands are healed, but is there something wrong with your brain?"
The Tianshi looked at Tian Jinzhong in surprise.
Didn't his junior brother usually have a quick mind?
"If no one had seen it, it would be one thing, but since so many people saw it, what I need to do now is handle this properly so as to prevent others from gossiping."
Once he handled it on his end, the matter would be considered settled.
As for Wang Ai.
Lao Tianshi couldn't be bothered with that guy right now.
Besides, he hadn't even settled the score with that old thing for threatening his juniors at Tianshi Mansion.
This time, he was letting him off easy.
"So that's how it is; then Senior Brother, you decide for yourself."
Retracting his hands into his sleeves, Tian Jinzhong shook his head slightly and said.
Seeing that Tian Jinzhong intended to wash his hands of the matter upon hearing his plan, Lao Tianshi was speechless.
Tian Jinzhong called out, and after a good while, Gong Qing walked in quickly.
After bowing, he pushed Tian Jinzhong away.
"It seems this is the only way; this should be enough to shut the mouths of others."
Lao Tianshi said, stroking his chin.
And to be honest, having been invincible for so long, Lao Tianshi also wanted to find an opponent to have a proper spar with.
After all, it had been so many years since he had stretched his muscles.
The next day.
Yesterday's events were still fermenting, but the Luo Tian Grand Ritual was not interrupted.
Wang Bing of the Wang Family withdrew from the competition directly.
Feng Xingtong advanced to the next round by default.
As for the other matches, they were also quite lively.
But clearly, not many people had their minds on today's matches.
Lao Liao sat with Chen Duo, Xu San, and Xu Si, watching as Lin Xuan walked toward the viewing stand with Qing Bai, heading toward Lao Tianshi and the others.
"Damn, it seems no one is approaching him."
Xu Si looked at Lin Xuan's appearance and spoke in astonishment.
"Are you joking? Do you think an Inner Alchemy Immortal is a fake? Not to mention seniority, just in terms of cultivation, even Lao Tianshi might have to kowtow."
Xu San said, pursing his lips.
He had spent the whole night reading materials related to the Dao Sect, and he understood the symbolic significance of an Inner Alchemy Immortal even better.
Lao Tianshi's strength was naturally terrifying.
But in terms of cultivation alone, he might really not be a match.
Of course, what the actual strength and realm of Lao Tianshi and Lin Xuan were, outsiders couldn't say for sure.
They could only guess based on bits and pieces of information.
"Old Third, are you kidding?"
Lao Liao turned his head to look at Xu San.
"I'm not kidding; that is the significance of Inner Alchemy to Dao Sect cultivation."
Xu San shook his head and said.
"However, it looks like your matter will have to be postponed a little."
Xu San knew that Lao Liao had come to ask for a favor.
But with such a big matter right in front of them, there was probably no way to deal with Lao Liao's business right now.
Liao Zhong felt a headache upon hearing this and turned his head to look at Chen Duo.
Chen Duo was poking at her phone, and Feng Baobao was on the side giving her tips.
One was terrible at the game, and the other was terrible even without spending money.
On the front viewing stand, Lu Jin and the others were whispering about something; seeing Lin Xuan approach, they stopped talking and stared straight at Lin Xuan.
"Why are you all looking at me?"
Lin Xuan spread his hands and then sat down next to Fang Dongtian.
Fang Dongtian shook his head slightly at Lin Xuan.
"I told you not to worry about it; I was the one who hit him, so I will face the consequences myself."
As Lin Xuan spoke, his calm gaze turned to his side.
Lu Jin and the other Ten Elders were moved upon hearing Lin Xuan's words.
"Not bad, it seems you are already mentally prepared!"
Lao Tianshi pushed Tian Jinzhong over and spoke after hearing Lin Xuan's words.
"There was no preparation; it was mainly a spur-of-the-moment decision. When I saw that face, I couldn't help but slap him."
Lin Xuan looked at Lao Tianshi and said in a light tone.
A slap?
The other Ten Elders looked at the Tianshi with strange expressions.
Their discussion yesterday had yielded absolutely no results.
It was mainly because the person involved, Lin Xuan, was not there, and Wang Ai was likely still in the emergency room.
Moreover, since Lin Xuan had acted so recklessly, the others did not intend to stick their necks out.
Besides, Guan Shihua and Feng Zhenghao were feeling happy inside right now, so how could they care about anything else?
Lao Tianshi adjusted the direction of Tian Jinzhong's wheelchair, then shook out his robes and sat down.
"This is Longhu Mountain, after all."
Lao Tianshi tilted his head to look at Lin Xuan and said in a light tone.
"That's true. Since I struck someone without informing the Tianshi, what does the Tianshi intend to do?"
Lin Xuan tilted his head to look at the Tianshi.
The Tianshi's expression stiffened for a moment.
This kid is this tough?
If he had spoken soft words, he would have gone with the flow to see if it worked.
But as it turns out, he isn't soft at all.
"If the Tianshi doesn't want to say it, then this junior will!"
Lin Xuan glanced at Fang Dongtian, who was signaling him with his eyes, and waved his hand.
"After the Luo Tian Grand Ritual ends, I will test the Celestial Master's methods."
Lin Xuan looked at Lao Tianshi and said with a calm expression.
"What the hell?"
Lu Jin was listening to the conversation between Lin Xuan and Lao Tianshi, and he was dumbfounded upon hearing this.
The expressions of the others also froze on their faces.
"Oh!"
Upon hearing Lin Xuan's words, Lao Tianshi actually laughed instead.
"Isn't that perfect? This old Daoist also wants to test your methods."
Once Lao Tianshi responded this way, the others could no longer sit still.
"No, Tianshi, this is no joke!"
Lu Jin said with a serious expression.
"Does this old Daoist look like he's joking?"
Lao Tianshi squinted at Lu Jin and asked in return.
"Tianshi, let's talk this over properly!"
Feng Zhenghao adjusted his glasses and spoke to persuade him.
"That's right, Tianshi. Although this matter is significant, it doesn't have to come to this."
Na Ruhu also spoke up to dissuade them.
"According to your meaning, should this matter just be dropped like this?"
Lao Tianshi squinted at them.
The group's expressions faltered.
"Dropping it is fine too. After all, Daoist Lin is young and didn't know his own strength, and Wang Ai is just incompetent; at such an old age, he couldn't even withstand a single slap."
Guan Shihua spoke, looking completely unperturbed.
"Grandma is right, and just because a fight happened on Longhu Mountain doesn't mean the two of you have to fight each other."
Upon hearing Guan Shihua's words, Na Ruhu immediately nodded in agreement.
"Everyone, actually, this junior is just taking this opportunity to ask the Tianshi for guidance."
Lin Xuan turned his head to look at Guan Shihua and the others and spoke.
"If the two of you fight, it certainly won't be a small scene; I think it's better to just let it go."
Lu Jin waved his hand upon hearing this.
Hearing Lu Jin say this, Lin Xuan did not respond and turned his head to look at Lao Tianshi.
"What does the Tianshi say?"
"Actually, it would be quite nice to stretch a bit."
The Tianshi nodded with a smile upon hearing this.
"Then it's settled?"
"It's settled!"
Hearing Lin Xuan and the Tianshi singing from the same hymn sheet, the others could no longer hold it together.
Damn, are you two for real?
If something goes wrong, the impact would be far greater than a Ten Elder getting beaten up.
