“Shijie, why do you think Shizun has been away for so long and hasn’t come back yet? With Shizun’s level of cultivation, he shouldn’t have trouble finding someone.”
Song Qingru was sitting silently, doing her homework. When she heard Lin Liaoting’s words, she sighed and put down her pen. Glancing towards the door, she said with a worried tone, “Yeah, it’s been almost an hour.”
After saying that, she turned around and glared at Lin Liaoting. “Isn’t it all because you can’t help causing trouble for my Shidi?”
Lin Liaoting sneered disdainfully, and stretched out his arm towards the little attendant who was brewing tea for him. A cup of hot Longjing was immediately handed to him.
Lin Liaoting lowered his head, and took a sip. He said indifferently, “Who was the one who made him so unlovable in the first place?”
Song Qingru looked at this eldest young master’s behavior and shook her head helplessly. “Stop drinking and study. Shizun is going to take a test today.”
“Don’t worry, Shijie, I have memorized these things a long time ago.” Lin Liaoting said nonchalantly.
After saying that, he lowered his head and took another sip of tea.
Just then, the door to Wu Yu Hall flew open, and the sound of footsteps came from far away. Lin Liaoting hurriedly raised his head, a smile plastered on his face. Just as he was about to get up, he saw Jian Xiuyun striding with Kan Wenxiao on his back as he came inside.
When Lin Liaoting saw this scene, he couldn’t hold back. With a “pop”, he spit out a mouthful of tea.
His breath caught in his throat and he coughed violently.
The little attendant on the side hurriedly stepped forward and patted his back to help him recover.
Lin Liaoting couldn’t care less about this. He pushed the little attendant away and ran towards Jian Xiuyun while coughing.
“Shizun..ahem…how did you…ahem…find out about him?”
Jian Xiuyun glared at him, “However it was, it definitely wasn’t because of your good deeds.”

Song Qingru was surprised when she heard this.
“How could it be? How could those venomous creatures in Five Poison Valley get so close to your body?” Song Qingru said, reaching out to check Kan Wenxiao’s injuries.
Kan Wenxiao hurriedly blocked her hand and comforted her, “Sister, don’t worry. I’m fine, it’s just a minor injury.”
Song Qingru obviously didn’t believe that. If it was a minor injury, how could master personally carry him all the way back?
Although she felt anxious and wanted to check his injuries, she also knew that what she had just done was inappropriate, so she stopped. Not daring to delay, she helped him walk to Qihuang Hall.
Lin Liaoting was standing on the side, full of doubts. He scratched his head and said, “It shouldn’t be, I obviously…”
“What do you know?” Jian Xiuyun glanced at him sideways and cut him off.
Lin Liaoting looked at Jian Xiuyun and fell silent, not knowing what to say for a moment.
He was used to bullying Kan Wenxiao. If he were to say he didn’t actually want to hurt him, would his master believe it?
Jian Xiuyun noticed his hesitant look. He hit him hard on the head with his fan, and said seriously, “Don’t bully Kan Wenxiao in the future.”
It only took a moment for him to be defeated in his last life. He was taken captive by Kan Wenxiao and kept in a dungeon, so he didn’t know what kind of end Lin Liaoting had met.
However, with Lin Liaoting bullying him like this, and with Kan Wenxiao’s determination to retaliate and take revenge, the outcome probably wasn’t much better.
Jian Xiuyun had good intentions, but how would Lin Liaoting know this? He really didn’t understand how his master’s attitude towards Kan Wenxiao had changed so drastically overnight, so he was full of grievances. “Why? Shizun, you’re not the same person anymore. Who hated him the most? And why are you now continuously defending him today?”
A trace of embarrassment flashed in Jian Xiuyun’s eyes. What should he say? Should he say he was reborn? That he had met the worst fate in his previous life, so he decided to hug Kan Wenxiao’s thighs in this life?
What a joke!
“You are all my disciples. I should treat you equally. What I did before was wrong, but I won’t do it again in the future.” Jian Xiuyun explained calmly.
“Shizun…”
Lin Liaoting wanted to speak again, but Jian Xiuyun interrupted him, “Since the two of them are not here now, let me test you first. Come and write.”
Lin Liaoting’s words were cut off, and he could only reluctantly follow Jian Xiuyun back and silently give his test.
Elder An was the head of Qihuang Hall and had excellent medical skills. He quickly helped Kan Wenxiao remove all the residual toxins, prescribed him medicine and instructed him to take it on time.
Due to his injury, Jian Xiuyun allowed him a day off, so after returning home, he drank the medicine Song Qingru brewed for him and then fell into a deep sleep.
Maybe it was the effect of the medicine, but he slept very peacefully that night. When he woke up, it was already past midnight.
It was dark, and the room was hazy.
His brain was still muddled from sleep, so he didn’t notice a person standing nearby.
When his dizziness faded away, he was startled. He quickly gathered his spiritual power and shouted sharply, “Who?!”
The man turned around slowly, and he saw that it was Lin Liaoting.
The two of them had never been on good terms with each other, so Kan Wenxiao did not bother giving him any face and bluntly asked, “What are you doing here?”
Seeing his attitude, Lin Liaoting’s face was also full of anger. He raised his chin, as proud as a peacock, and said, “Do you think I’m willing to come to your room? If not…”
Kan Wenxiao was listening to what he wanted to say, but he changed the topic. He took out a white porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to him, “I didn’t expect what happened today. Here, I’ll pay you back with the Vitality Pill.”
Kan Wenxiao raised his eyebrows. Vitality Pill was a pill made from the bones of the dead.
Of course, it was not so magical that it could bring the dead back to life, but it was said that as long as one still had a breath left and took this pill, he could regain his vitality and life.
Kan Wenxiao looked up at Lin Liaoting, and suddenly felt that he was not as useless as he thought.
At least he had the backing of the Lin family, and it was true that he was rich.
The injury was originally his fault, so Kan Wenxiao did not thank him and directly picked up the Vitality Pill.
Then he shifted his gaze at him and then at the door, indicating his intention for him to leave.
Lin Liaoting said, “Who would want to stay in a wretched place like yours?”
After saying that, he strode out and shut the door with all his strength. The dilapidated wooden door was overwhelmed by the force and let out a loud sound.
Kan Wenxiao didn’t care, and got out of bed, planning to practice Kung Fu for a while.
His hand brushed against something cold. He turned around and found a paper bag placed on the stool next to his bed.
He picked it up and opened it confusedly, and saw pieces of exquisite snacks lying inside.
It was the pine nut and lily pastries that Jian Xiuyun liked to eat on weekdays.
Nice move Shizun, snack (food) are always the best bribe!
Lol, are those the pastries our MC threw away earlier because they were cold and ugly?
I know right? The MC is so petty.
Thank you for the chapter!
