Eternal Life from Taking Care of Master's Wife-Chapter 120 - 20: Nine Peaks Public Trial! Brother Run Can’t Hide Anymore

Chapter 120: Chapter 20: Nine Peaks Public Trial! Brother Run Can’t Hide Anymore

"Puff!"

Li Feihong’s vision turned black, and he vomited blood, fainting instantly.

"Second Senior Brother!"

Wei Monarch exclaimed in shock, quickly picking up Li Feihong and rushing back to Black Dragon Peak.

"Whoa!"

"Did I see that right? Senior Brother Li was seriously injured by Senior Brother Zhou in just one move?"

"Is Senior Brother Zhou really that terrifying?"

"Senior Brother Li is a powerful practitioner of the Fifth Body Refining Transformation, mastered six martial arts, proficient in Lightweight Skill, fist techniques, palm techniques, leg techniques, and claw techniques, how could he be defeated in one move by Senior Brother Zhou?"

After a brief silence, astonishment filled the surroundings.

The news that Li Feihong and Wei Monarch blocked Zhou Chen at the foot of the mountain quickly spread, attracting numerous disciples to watch.

Fortunately, Zhou Chen descended the mountain rather quickly.

Li Feihong and Wei Monarch only had to wait as long as a stick of incense burned.

If the time had dragged on, even more disciples would have come to watch.

"Zhou Chen truly hides so deep!"

A young man in purple clothes gazed at Zhou Chen’s departing figure and sighed:

"Though the clash was brief, Li Feihong was completely overwhelmed, without any chance to retaliate!"

"What Senior Brother Song says is very true!"

The young man in black beside him agreed:

"Zhou Chen first calmly sidestepped to avoid the spear’s gleam, then with a reverse grab, he snatched Li Feihong’s spear away. This proves his speed and strength far surpass Li Feihong’s; such power is middle to upper tier among True Disciples!"

"We must strive hard, for if little Brother surpasses us one day, it would be truly embarrassing!"

The young man in purple, Song Ziye, shook his head, exhibited his Lightweight Skill, and with a few leaps vanished at Spirit Medicine Peak.

The young man in black followed suit.

Meanwhile.

The news of Zhou Chen and Li Feihong clashing out of rivalry for Mu Ling’Er, with Zhou Chen defeating Li Feihong in one move and gravely injuring him, spread through Cyan Cloud Sect like wildfire.

Everyone who heard it was shocked.

Not at the rivalry itself, since Zhou Chen was known for his amorous nature and Li Feihong had pursued Mu Ling’Er for ten years, their rivalry was expected.

What truly shocked everyone was the unexpected outcome that Zhou Chen won!

And in just one move!

This news was even more unbelievable than Zhou Chen not indulging in debauchery.

Li Feihong, with Fifth Body Refining Transformation, ranked twenty-second among True Disciples this year, while Zhou Chen, who had only reached Body Refining Ninth Layer half a year ago, ranked at the very bottom, in thirty-fourth place.

Their ranks differed by a full twelve positions!

"Is this news fake? Senior Brother Zhou may be strong at Body Refining Ninth Layer, but how could he one-shot Senior Brother Li?"

"Perhaps Senior Brother Zhou unexpectedly attacked, lacking martial ethics?"

"That’s where you’re wrong. I saw it with my own eyes; Senior Brother Li acted first, and in anger lunged with his spear at Senior Brother Zhou. But Senior Brother Zhou merely sidestepped the attack, then snatched away Li’s spear, dealing him a heavy blow!"

"Hiss!"

"The gap between Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Zhou is actually so large? How is that possible?"

"Could it be that Senior Brother Zhou’s nightly indulgences are just a facade, deceiving outsiders, while he actually practices diligently every night, hence his remarkable progress?"

"It must be; Senior Brother Zhou is quite sly!"

"Indeed, and we thought Senior Brother Zhou indulged in pleasure daily, who would have guessed that he stays up every night training hard!"

A crowd of inner and outer disciples buzzed with speculation, feeling they’ve uncovered the truth.

Just like those top students who claim they never study, never read or do homework.

Yet, in every exam, the top students excel.

...

Spirit Medicine Peak.

Mu Ling’Er fled in panic from the Alchemy Room back to her private chamber, hurriedly changing to inner garments, but still felt sticky with sweat.

She decided to have hot water prepared for a bath.

Sinking into a large bath barrel, Mu Ling’Er luxuriated in the water, surrounded by flower petals and medicinal herbs, as a faint floral scent permeated the air.

Mu Ling’Er picked up a towel, let warm water flow onto her fair neck, the droplets sliding down past alabaster shoulders, crossing delicate collarbones, and finally merging into the valleys between.

"Ah, comfortable!"

Mu Ling’Er took a deep breath, and the image of Zhou Chen surfaced in her mind: "That little Brother is such a rascal, always bullying people, truly incorrigible..."

Thinking of Zhou Chen, Mu Ling’Er felt as if a large hand brushed over her body, trying to delve inside her...

"Sister Da Shi, something terrible..."

Mu Ling’Er shivered, her long, alabaster legs clenching tight, and retorted outside in a huff:

"Who says something’s wrong with me! I’m perfectly fine!"

"No, I didn’t mean Sister Da Shi was unwell, it’s Senior Brother Zhou fighting with Senior Brother Li..."

"What?"

Mu Ling’Er was alarmed, the bath barrel shattered under her immense strength, she didn’t mind, grabbed her clothes, donned them, and ran outside.

"How could little Brother get into a fight with Li Feihong?"

Mu Ling’Er looked anxious; she couldn’t fathom Zhou Chen defeating Li Feihong.

"Sister Da Shi, don’t worry, the fight is over!"

"What? Over? How is little Brother? Is he badly injured?"

Mu Ling’Er quickly took out a sacred healing elixir gifted by her master, ready to deliver it to Zhou Chen.

"Sister Da Shi, wait, Senior Brother Zhou isn’t hurt, it’s Senior Brother Li who is seriously injured!"

"Hmm? Who did you say is seriously injured?"

Mu Ling’Er paused, turned towards the maid, thinking she misheard.

"Sister Da Shi, Senior Brother Zhou is fine, he defeated Senior Brother Li in one move, and Senior Brother Li has already been carried back to Black Dragon Peak, while Senior Brother Zhou returned too!"

"Little Brother is indeed formidable!"

Mu Ling’Er patted her full chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and sternly said, "Li Feihong truly deserves it!"

Maid: "..."

Indeed.

Loyal dogs end up with nothing!

...

Black Dragon Peak.

"Master, something terrible, Second Senior Brother is gravely injured by Zhou Chen!"
