Cultivation Daddy-Chapter 92: Trouble Already (2)

Li Jain held her neck firmly in his hand. Madam Yan finally understood what it feels like to have her life controlled by others. She panicked but her body wouldn’t move.

She couldn’t get loose and even if she tried, she couldn’t escape the grasp. Her pupils dilated and she felt a suffocating feeling in her heart like she was going to burst any moment now. Her mind was blanking and her consciousness began fading, making her feel dizzy.

"Please let go, you’re going to kill her." The teacher pleaded in panic.

At the critical moment, Li Jain loosened his grip.

The woman dropped to the ground, coughing violently, hands clawing at her throat as she sucked in air like a drowning person pulled onto shore.

She looked up, furious and trembling.

"So, you’re from the Yan family." Li Jain asked as if he’d just noticed her.

The woman’s eyes widened slightly: "You..."

"If a Soul Palace cultivator strikes a child in the Physical Body realm with killing intent, that is murder. What would you have done if you’d killed my son?"

"Madam, you crossed the line. Regardless of what happened, you cannot attack a student like that. Especially with your cultivation." The principal step forward and said

The woman coughed again, then glared at Yuhan as if she wanted to tear him apart: "You don’t understand! He nearly killed my son!"

"It’s just a fight among children."

The principal tried to reason.

The woman laughed bitterly: "It’s not that simple! Can’t you see how badly my son was beaten?"

The principal shook his head: "I know it looks bad, but we don’t know what happened and besides, they’re both of the same age with similar cultivation levels."

"What exactly happened?" The principal asked carefully

This is what happened earlier:

Vermillion Sword Hall was more orderless than expected. After entering through the gate, the brothers didn’t know where to go.

The students ran in every direction. Instructors were shouting random names, and scolding randomly.

After walking along the corridor, they saw two groups of young boys fighting each other, and a teacher was yelling and pointing at the boys’ backs in frustration.

They tried to ask for directions but every time they approached someone, another group of students would rush by, cutting the flow.

"What should we do now?" Li Zhang asked

"Let’s get our schedule first." Li Yuhan said

"I don’t think they’re handing out schedules. Why don’t we ask the group gathering over there for directions?" Li Jingxuan suggested.

"Good idea." Li Yun responded

"Hey, Jingxuan" A boy called out to Li Jingxuan from within the crowd.

Li Jingxuan recognized him instantly. He is Yan Yushan, the boy he fought alongside during the entrance exam.

Jingxuan’s eyes lit up and he waved back: "Hey Yushan, what’s going on?"

Jingxuan stepped forward but before he could reach Yan Yushan and asked for directions, Yuhan’s teammates started to pull him.

"Come on, Yushan. Hurry up."

"Quit chatting, other teams would get there first if we don’t hurry."

"If the keys are gone, we’re done!"

Yan Yushan was dragged by his teammates, he gave Jingxuan an apologetic smile and waved goodbye.

Jingxuan’s hand froze in his step and frowned: "There goes another chance of finding out what was happening."

"Let’s just find a teacher." Yuhan sighed. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

As soon as they turned to leave, they nearly collided into someone.

"Oh sorry." Li Zhang apologized hastily but pouted when he recognized the person who bumped into them, and moved aside quickly.

However the person stopped in his tracks, staring at their faces with a smile: "Oh, it’s you. What’s your name again." He thought for a moment and a light bulb lit up on top of his head: "Right, Li Zhang."

"Just great, running into the teacher’s pet this early morning." Li Zhang sneered

Chen Liwei wasn’t angry or mad but instead his expression turned more gentle, and his eyes softened, as if seeing a dear friend. Li Zhang got goosebumps.

Chen Liwei reached out and touched his shoulder reassuringly: "I am glad to see you."

"Yeah..." Li Zhang replied dryly.

"You don’t know, but you’re the person I’ve been praying to run into this morning." Chen Liwei smiled widely.

Li Zhang was surprised: "me?"

"Mhm," Chen Liwei nodded.

Li Zhang chuckled bitterly: "OK, why are you looking for me."

Li Zhang didn’t have a good impression of Chen Liwei so he thought he was up to something.

Chen Liwei unrolled one of the scrolls he was holding: "On the first day of every school year, there’s a treasure hunt event that takes place. It’s on the second page of the school guild book."

Li Zhang chuckled unnaturally, because they didn’t read the guild book, no wonder they are the only ones who don’t know what’s going on.

"The treasure hunt is a great way to get an early advantage. For any year, especially in this Academy, the classroom and sitting matters. There are keys placed randomly around campus. To participate in the event, students need to form a team. Depending on the keys found, the team can choose their own classroom and seat. The better the key, the better the privilege." Chen Liwei explained in detail.

"Why would I go through the trouble to choose a seat? I can just sit in the back." Li Zhang rolled his eyes.

"Of course It’s important!" He looked at Li Zhang as if he was talking nonsense: "You’re thinking too simply."

Chen Liwei pointed at a picture on the scroll: "The back isn’t necessarily a place to sit if you want to avoid the teachers. Honestly, the back is monitored more severely than the front. Because it’s easy to note only troublesome students would want to sit in the back. The most important seat in any classroom is in the blind spots. Somewhere in the middle, close to the windows."

Li Zhang was suddenly interested. He knew he was someone who’s easily distracted, so the blind spots in his mind were already starting to appear.

"Now that your mind has been opened, come join my team. I already have cues where some keys are." Chen Liwei smiled.

He puts away the scroll and grabs Li Zhang’s hand, dragging him quietly before he changes his mind.

"You heard him, you guys should form a team too and join the event..." Li Zhang’s voice sounded in the distance.

"That traitor."

"Fourth brother is easily lured, what should we do now?" Jingxuan asked hesitantly

"Let’s go sign up, I’m also curious about this event."

Just as they were leaving, an excited voice called out to Li Jingxuan.

"Hey, Xuan, over here." Shen Yang shouted

Li Jingxuan turned around and was very surprised. He didn’t expect to see Shen Yang here. "How have you been?"

"Good, I didn’t know you’d be enrolled here." Shen Yang smile

"I didn’t either, but here I am." Li Jingxuan

scratched his head sheepishly

Shen Yang noticed the person standing behind Li Jingxuan and asked: "Who’s this?"

"Oh, this is my second brother. He wasn’t in the village when you guys visited." Li Jingxuan introduced.

Shen Yang smiled: "Nice to meet you."

Li Yuhan nodded and glanced at Jingxuan with an evil smile, as if he’d discovered something interesting.

"Xuan, do you want to join my team?" Shen Yang asked

Jingxuan hesitated, then looked at Li Yuhan.

Li Yuhan nodded: "Go. Don’t wander too far."

Jingxuan’s eyes brightened: "Second brother, you can join us too."

Li Yuhan paused. Then he shook his head:"You go first. I’ll sign up separately."

Li Jingxuan agreed and left with Shen Yang.

Shen Yang is the little friend that Jingxuan made in the village, who had a strange attractive physique. Shen Yang accompanied his brother Shen Yuan to the village.

Now that everyone had left, Yuhan felt a little lonely and missed Yujian a little. But he quickly got rid of the thought because he knew the heartless guy wouldn’t think about him.

🌺🌺🌺

Li Yuhan joined the event and almost an hour later, he suddenly ran into someone. Even when he tried to turn away, they still crossed in front of him.

"What do you want?" Li Yuhan asked annoyed

three boys were standing in front of him. From their look, it was certain that they’re looking for trouble.

The one in front had a smug face and an arrogant look. He stared at Li Yuhan as if he was looking at a piece of trash.

Li Yuhan recognized him, which made him frowned even more: "Move!"

"Well we’ll, look who it is. Acting all mighty when you’re nothing but trash." Yan Zhenghao said provocatively as he pushed Li Yuhan.

Li Yuhan dodged his push and stepped backward: "Wash your tongue and don’t speak nonsense!"

"Nonsense? You were sold to our family by your own father for a bit of money. What makes you think you deserve to attend the same school as me?" Yan Zhenghao scoffed.

Li Yuhan was furious but he held it in, after all today is the first day and he doesn’t want any trouble.

Seeing that Li Yuhan didn’t say anything, Yan Zhenghao became bolder: "What? Did your father sell you again? Or is he still gambling? A man like him can sell his children at any time."

Li Yuhan clenched his fists tightly. His knuckles turned white and the veins on his hands popped out.

Yan Zhenghao noticed Li Yuhan was enraged and didn’t care.

As the crowd gathered, the more excited he became. He continued laughing: "Why are you glaring? What I said It’s true. Your father sold you, that means you are goods and goods don’t have pride."

Li Yuhan took one step forward but before he could do anything, a fist slammed into Yan Zhenghao’s face.

The punch was so sudden and so violent that Yan Zhenghao’s head snapped sideways, blood spraying from his mouth.

The crowd watched stunned, unable to react for a while, even Yuhan was taken aback.

Yan Yushan held his face and cursed angrily: "Which bastard dared to hit..."

Before his words could finish, he was punched again on the other side. This time he fell flat onto the ground.

Li Zhang sat on Yan Yushan and punched him repeatedly, and each time, Yan Zhenghao’s face became redder and redder. Finally he was beaten to the point he couldn’t even speak anymore.

"I don’t care what happened in your Yan family, but if I hear you insult my father and brother again, I’ll beat you into a pulp!" Li Zhang yelled as he continued to hit him.

The students were shouting: fight! fight! fight!

When a teacher arrived, Yan Yushan was beaten beyond recognition.

That’s how the three of them were taken to the principal’s office and their parents were contacted right away.

Madam Yan, who hasn’t left Fengwu City yet, when she heard that her precious son was hurt, immediately ran to the school.
