Chapter 558 Avenging the Disciple
Chapter 558 Avenging the Disciple
"Mao Shikeng, you colluded with disciples of the Enforcement Hall to frame our disciples. Do you know your mistake?" the Peak Master of Hanyue Peak asked sternly.
Mao Shikeng was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, not daring to meet the gaze of the Cold Moon Peak Master. He answered tremblingly, "This disciple knows his mistake and hopes that Master will forgive him."
"You don't need to beg for my forgiveness, but rather for your junior brother's forgiveness," the Cold Moon Peak Master said angrily.
"Ask this kid?" Upon hearing this, Mao Shikeng immediately lost his temper.
If he were to yield to Lin Ping in front of Jiang Yunying, his standing in her eyes would definitely plummet.
"What? You dare disobey your teacher?"
Even though he was dissatisfied with Lin Ping, he had to admit his mistake now to avoid being punished by the peak master.
"Senior brother was wrong, can you forgive me?" Mao Shikeng said reluctantly.
"No!" Lin Ping answered firmly.
Mao Shikeng was Lin Ping's senior, so admitting his mistake was the greatest respect he could give him.
Anyone with a modicum of emotional intelligence should accept his apology.
Everyone was shocked by his words, and even Jiang Yunying was worried for him.
The reason why the peak master of Hanyue Peak forced Mao Shikeng to apologize to him was to make Lin Ping feel more at ease, but if he goes too far, he might offend the peak master's bottom line.
"Master, this brat actually won't accept my apology!" Mao Shikeng said angrily, feeling that he had completely lost face.
"Is this the attitude you should have when apologizing?" The peak master of Hanyue Peak was still furious and continued to speak up for Lin Ping.
"Junior brother, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have conspired with Fan Xiaojian to frame you. Please forgive me."
Mao Shikeng spoke in a humble and respectful tone.
"I won't forgive you!" Lin Ping turned his head and said arrogantly.
Before Mao Shikeng could even complain, the peak master of Hanyue Peak took the initiative to say, "Your senior brother's attitude is quite sincere. What would it take for you to forgive him?"
Jiang Yunying winked at Lin Ping, telling him to know when to stop.
Lin Ping acted as if he hadn't seen anything, and said imperiously, "Unless he kowtows to me and admits his mistake!"
"Master, did you hear that? This brat actually made my senior brother kneel down and apologize to him. He truly has no respect for his elders!" Mao Shikeng pointed at Lin Ping and said loudly.
He even wanted to laugh inwardly; Lin Ping clearly had the advantage, yet he deliberately jumped into the fire.
The peak master of Hanyue Peak places great importance on seniority, and for Lin Ping to make his senior brother kneel before him is simply outrageous.
However, is she really that concerned about seniority? Then why does she prefer Lin Ping to call her "senior sister"?
By that logic, wouldn't Lin Ping be Mao Shikeng's senior martial brother? It would be only natural for him to kneel down and apologize.
"Is it shameful to kneel down and apologize to your fellow disciple? I think you're not truly repentant. I'm punishing you to stay in your room for three months to reflect on your mistakes," the Cold Moon Peak Master said with a gloomy expression.
thump……
Mao Shikeng suddenly knelt on the ground, his forehead hitting the ground repeatedly: "Junior brother, I know I was wrong, please forgive me, I don't want to be confined to my room to reflect on my mistakes."
"Senior brother, please rise. I was just joking. Why are you kneeling? I am your junior brother and cannot accept this bow. Besides, we are fellow disciples. Fan Xiaojian is an outsider. How could you conspire with him to frame me? He must have accidentally passed by and saw me teaching you a lesson."
Lin Ping helped Mao Shikeng up and said insincerely.
"If you had even half the magnanimity of your junior brother, you wouldn't have made such a mistake." The Peak Master of Cold Moon Peak turned and left.
“Master, you are still too young and cannot see through my husband.” Jiang Yunying said angrily, “Junior brother, your sweet words may fool Master, but they cannot fool me. Go to my room to receive your punishment.”
"Senior sister is still on my side after all." Hearing this, Mao Shikeng felt extremely relieved.
In order to gain Jiang Yunying's favor, he will continue to make things difficult for Lin Ping in the future, and without seeking outside help.
Every time Mao Shikeng heard Lin Ping's triumphant shouts coming from inside the room, he felt genuinely pleased.
"Beat him! Beat him hard, beat him until he screams his lungs out!" Outside the door, Mao Shikeng stomped his feet excitedly.
Inside the room, Lin Ping lay listlessly on the bed.
It's so hard for him; he has to play the role of a man while also imitating a woman's cries.
Since my wife likes to hear it, we have to satisfy her, right?
"Husband, how did you manage to completely fool Master?" Jiang Yunying asked sarcastically.
As a woman, especially a beautiful one, she has an exceptionally strong sixth sense; even if she knows something is impossible, she can still guess a thing or two.
"In all honesty, I have no relationship with my master. It was only because of my high talent that I was deeply loved by my master."
Lin Ping pointed to the sky and swore an oath, speaking nervously.
"I didn't say anything, why are you so nervous? Are you feeling guilty?" Jiang Yunying rolled her eyes at him and said, "Master is free to do things as he pleases, but I have a junior sister who is not only beautiful, but also loves to steal things from me. I'm afraid my husband won't be able to resist the temptation."
"Junior sister?" Before he could finish speaking, Lin Ping immediately covered his mouth, not daring to mention what had happened in Huizhou.
Although marriage was not his original intention, the two were now husband and wife in name, and it was Lin Ping who seduced the other party first.
On the way to Huizhou, he showed a lot of concern for Guo Zhixi.
"Husband, have you met your junior sister?" Jiang Yunying's sixth sense kicked in.
"Never seen it before!" Lin Ping nodded vigorously, clearly showing his guilty conscience.
"My husband seems quite excited? But my junior sister should be back soon, so I hope you won't fall for her then," Jiang Yunying reminded him, even making a scissor shape with her fingers.
"Can I not see you?" Lin Ping chuckled.
“You’re all from the same sect, and besides, she lives right next to you. You can’t just not see her. Is it possible that you’re really afraid you can’t control yourself?” Jiang Yunying asked, somewhat puzzled.
Although she verbally reminded Lin Ping, she knew in her heart that Lin Ping was not a philanderer, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to find her.
Lin Ping's actions confirm the saying: Since meeting you, everything I do from now on is to get closer to you.
"I hope she doesn't come back first," Lin Ping prayed silently.
Guo Zhixi knew his identity, and that if they met, she would likely be exposed and die a horrible death.
He thought that Guo Zhixi had already gone down the mountain and would not come back. If he had known this would happen, he should not have revealed his name in advance, and he should not have entered Hanyue Peak.
"Husband, do you want some?" Jiang Yunying's voice kept tickling Lin Ping's heart.
He shook his head and said, "Bring it on, who's afraid of who!"
As it turns out, impulsiveness is the devil.
It was this extra minute that almost caused him to lose the battle with Mao Shikeng the next day.
Fortunately, the amount of X-rays he received was increased; even without competing with Lin Ping, Mao Shikeng might have fallen.
"What's wrong with me lately?" Mao Shikeng, his face bruised and swollen, mumbled incoherently.
Thinking of Jiang Yunying's concern for him, he was immediately filled with energy again: "Lin Ping, come on, I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow!"
