Novel Bin Chapter 24 - Investment For Future!
Before Ye Tian Yun could even sit and relax, he suddenly felt some aura\'s approaching, he frowned and thought out vigilantly, \'Someone\'s coming!\'
Ye Tian Yun started moving towards the gate of \'his\' cultivation abode and gaze at the outside situation.
A few figures walked in with large strides.
"Elder Mu, it\'s him. He did a sneak attack on me and crippled my Dantian!" The ear-piercing, crow-like voice entered Ye Tian Yun\'s ears.
Hearing the signature voice, Ye Tian Yun didn\'t have to look before he knew who it was.
Even though he\'d long since guessed that Du Xiu wouldn\'t let it go, he never expected that he would return so quickly….
Ye Tian Yun\'s brows knitted when he saw a middle-aged man in the lead of the three people that walked in with large strides since he didn\'t know who it was.
Behind Elder Mu, Du Xiu had a face full of exasperation, and his hateful gaze gathered onto Ye Tian Yun\'s figure as if wanting to swallow him….
Ye Tian Yun didn\'t bother to pay attention to Du Xiu, and his gaze descended onto Elder Mu and the other person that followed behind her.
This was a female disciple with a delicate and pretty appearance. She was about 23 or 24 years old, and the gaze that she occasionally shot at Du Xiu seemed to contain a sense of disgust mixed within….
"Elder Mu." Ye Tian Yun looked at the middle-aged man and lightly nodded.
"Are you the Fang Chen who took leave from the sect for about two weeks ago?" Elder Mu asked.
"Yes." Ye Tian Yun nodded.
Elder Mu frowned, then he turned around to look at Du Xiu, who was behind him, and asked indifferently, "Du Xiu, what actually happened? You said that Disciple Fang Chen ambushed you when you were cultivating? You should know how big your accusations are. To ambush a fellow sect disciple while he is cultivating is an unpardonable crime."
As far as he was concerned, this matter was quite weird. First of all, he knew that Fang Chen was only at the 3rd Level of Qi Refining Realm, and even his guards, who had gotten special permission, were not around right now. So, how could he defeat Du Xiu, who was at least three levels higher than him, at the 6th Level of Qi Refining?
And moreover, cripple Du Xiu\'s Dantian? One should know that Dantian is where Qi is mainly stored in the body and to cripple someone\'s Dantian, he or she needs to have a full advantage over his opponent, which was even more absurd in this scenario.
He had a feeling that the matter was absolutely not as simple as Du Xiu said.
"Yes, Elder Mu." Du Xiu hurriedly nodded, and his atrocious gaze stared fixedly at Ye Tian Yun, "He took advantage of me when I was cultivating to sneak into my cultivation location, then they heavily injured me before crippling my Dantian, after which they seized my cultivation location!"
"Really?" Elder Mu\'s gaze descended onto Ye Tian Yun.
"Hmm?" Elder Mu noticed Ye Tian Yun\'s composed expression and he asked. "What do you have to say about this incident?"
Ye Tian Yun lightly smiled. "Elder Mu, what this Du Xiu said is only a one-sided statement, and he has no conclusive proof…."
Elder Mu hadn\'t even opened his mouth before Du Xiu shouted out fiercely. "My Dantian that was crippled by all of you is the best proof!"
"Your Dantian was crippled by me?" Ye Tian Yun started laughing. "Who knows, maybe you fell down while walking and broke your own Dantian from the fall…. What? Seeing I\'ve occupied your cultivation location, so you want to frame me?"
Elder Mu glanced deeply at Ye Tian Yun, then he opened his mouth once again with a tone that had a sense of seriousness mixed within, "Du Xiu, think properly before you speak…. If I find out you\'re deceiving me, I\'ll be forced to do Soul Search and expel you from Seventh Peak right away!"
Du Xiu\'s face went pale when he heard this. In the end, he gritted his teeth and eventually narrated the truth of the matter to Elder Mu. He may have a chance after he told them the truth, but if Soul Search was performed on him, there would be no way to survive and all his secrets will also be revealed.
"Hmph!" In next to no time, Elder Mu\'s gaze descended onto, and a strand of coldness flashed within his eyes. "Du Xiu, you actually dared lie before me, desiring to frame another….You, what should be your punishment?"
Du Xiu\'s face was ghastly pale, and he gritted his teeth. "Elder Mu, Du Xiu acknowledges his sins. But he crippled my Dantian. Isn\'t his offence much larger? I hope Elder Mu can give Du Xiu justice and cripple his Dantian as well!"
"Du Xiu, do you really think you are in a position to request anything? If not for my relations with your uncle, I would have already kicked you out. Now get lost from here!" Elder Mu shouted in anger. It was like he was venting all his anger on Du Xiu.
"You two! Come and take this trash away from here!" Elder Mu turned towards Du Xiu\'s lackeys who had also been present at the scene but were observing from far away.
In no time they lifted Du Xiu and disappeared.
"Thank you, Elder Mu." Ye Tian Yun cupped his fists and thanked the middle-aged man in front of him.
"Hmph, You won\'t be let off next time!" Elder Mu put on an arrogant expression and disregarding Ye Tian Yun\'s greeting, turned away, going back towards the Elder Hall.
Ye Tian Yun just shrugged at his behaviour and returned to his cultivation abode.
…
On their way to the Elder Hall, the young disciple who had come with Elder Mu couldn\'t hold back here questions and asked, "Master, may I ask a few questions?"
"Yeah, go ahead."
"Master, won\'t Du Xiu\'s uncle cause you trouble late?"
"His Uncle? Well, I never cared about him. He is just a manager at resource department hall. Except for distributing monthly pills, he is useless."
"Then Master, why did you not punish Fang Chen? Though Du Xiu is a detestable guy, Fang Chen was also at fault for crippling him." the young disciple asked with a curious expression.
"Hmm, you can call my actions investments."
"Investments? Investments for what?"
"For a better future of course."
