Chapter 58: Educating the Little Peac.o.c.k
“How dare you?!” When he heard that Jiang Yun was going to spread the news of today’s incident to everyone, Kong Li was so angry that he got up from the ground and glared at him fiercely.
However, the words and actions of Kong Li, who was covered in blood, disheveled hair, and a bruised and swollen face, could be said to have no sense of intimidation at all.
Of course, even if he was unscathed, it would still be asking for a beating for him to speak to Jiang Yun in such a well-dressed manner.
He was defeated badly, but the proud peac.o.c.k was blinded by anger.
Jiang Yun gave him an iron hand to let him see the situation clearly.
“Even if I die today, I will not regret it. For a villain like you, there will always be someone who will deal with you.” Kong Li held his head and kept a distance of ten feet away from Jiang Yun, shouting without giving up.
Jiang Yun was not angry. It was probably because the difference in strength was too great. To him, Kong Li was just a little bird that bared its beak and brandished its claws. There was nothing to be angry about.
Jiang Yun was even very patient as he asked despite knowing the answer, “What did I do? You said that I was an evil person.”
“You killed people and stole treasures. You allowed your disciples to harm the weak. And, and you even insulted me.” Kong Li’s tone was very aggrieved as he finished speaking.
“Silly bird.” Jiang Yun took a sip of tea and ignored Kong Li’s expression of “you insulted me again”, “You just believe what others say. The Great Peac.o.c.k King must have been worried sick to have a stupid brat like you.”
“You…”
On one hand, Kong Li was angry that Jiang Yun had called him a stupid bird. On the other hand, he was surprised that Jiang Yun actually knew his ident.i.ty.
Jiang Yun directly interrupted his brainless speech and continued to speak, “That He Zhao’s realm is higher than my disciple’s. After my disciple defeats the guardian spirit beast and gets the immortal herb, he wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h it. My disciple was no match for him and ran all the way back to the sect.”
Jiang Yun put down his tea and lay flat on the chair. He even held a fan in his hand as he leisurely fanned himself.
“Then he died. I let his primordial spirit go on purpose. He has a great enmity with my other disciple. He will come back again.”
“What enmity?” Kong Li did not quite believe it.
“The enmity of exterminating her family.”
Kong Li was silent when he heard this. This was completely different from what He Zhao had told them last night.
However, if what He Zhao said was true, he would not be able to escape at all. After all, his dharma had infiltrated with his primordial spirit just now, but he was still utterly defeated by Jiang Yun.
Kong Li felt that he had been deceived, but he was also a little embarra.s.sed. He did not dare to admit that he had come to find him and made a big mistake.
“Then, that He Zhao has a great enmity with your disciple. Why did you let his primordial spirit go?” Kong Li felt that he had found a loophole in Jiang Yun’s words, so he asked.
Jiang Yun gave him a caring look for his stupidity, which made Kong Li explode again.
“With He Zhao’s level, he definitely wasn’t the only one who wanted to kill my disciple’s family. He also had an accomplice. They are in cahoots. He Zhao will definitely find them.”
“Oh.” Kong Li responded embarra.s.sedly, pulling the thread on his sleeve helplessly.
“If you don’t believe me, you can stay here and wait for a few days. They will be here soon.”
“Oh.” Kong Li was a little dazed. He had been beaten too badly just now, and his head was muddled.
Knowing that he couldn’t get out of this barrier, he wasn’t thick-skinned enough to want to go into the other party’s house to have a seat. After all, he had been rude before.
He had disturbed the peace and tranquility of others without any reason, and he had even been pressed to the ground and hammered.
Thinking of this, Kong Li touched his face. “Hiss” it hurt so much. His face must have been disfigured.
Kong Li sat on the ground sadly. He was no longer beautiful. He was no longer the most beautiful one in the peac.o.c.k royal family. His face had been disfigured.
Kong Li was so sad that he almost cried. Jiang Yun, who was beside him, almost laughed when he heard his inner thoughts.
Jiang Yun waved his fan and looked at Kong Li, who was sitting dirty on the ground. He looked a little pitiful, but…
“Are you only worried about your face now? Your followers have run away.” Jiang Yun continued to stab Kong Li in the heart.
As expected, when Kong Li heard this, he became even more disheartened.
He could not help but think of Li Nu.
He remembered the first time meeting Li Nu. He pa.s.sed by a swamp and heard a helpless cry for help
“Help! Is there anyone here? Please save me!”
The voice was so desperate. He had just left home and was all alone, but he wanted to bring justice and become the peac.o.c.k king who was as respected as his father.
Therefore, he rushed into the swamp without hesitation and grabbed Li Nu, who only had one hand and one head left.
The swamp crocodiles were also attracted by Li Nu’s cry for help. Kong Li comforted Li Nu while pulling him up,
“Don’t be afraid. I will definitely save you. Hold on to my hand.”
Li Nu looked at him with tears streaming down his face. The look in his eyes as if he was the savior filled him with strength.
Even though Li Nu almost pulled his feathers down, he did not let go.
Finally, he managed to pull them up before the crocodiles bit them. However, his feathers were inevitably stained by the swamp that had a corrosive effect.
Fortunately, he had the medicine given by his father, which could heal these minor injuries and protect the l.u.s.ter of his feathers.
After all, to the peac.o.c.k clan, especially the male peac.o.c.k, beautiful feathers were more important than life. If they were not beautiful, they would not be able to find a mate and would even be laughed at.
However, he was doing it to save people, so it did not matter if he was injured.
He saw that Li Nu had been secretly watching him apply the medicine, so he was too embarra.s.sed to use it alone, so he pa.s.sed the medicine to him.
“Here, this medicine is very useful for repairing hair. By the way, What’s your name? I’m Kong Li.”
“I’m Li Nu.”
Li Nu took his medicine and told him his name. Knowing that he had just left home, he said enthusiastically, “Can I follow you? You’re so amazing, you’ll definitely be famous on the continent.”
What did he say at that time? He seemed to say yes with a smile.
After that, for some reason, more and more people followed him. Initially, he was just helping out. They praised him and then follow him.
Kong Li did not expect that Li Nu would actually leave him on his own accord. It was only because he had lost in a fight.
Yes, he had lost. Before he met Jiang Yun, he had never known what it felt like to lose, and no one would say that he had lost.
Kong Li lowered his head to look at his arm, which had been ripped open, and blew lightly on it.
It hurt so much. Perhaps it was too painful, but tears flowed uncontrollably out of his eyes.
Kong Li carelessly touched his face, sniffed, and could not help but cough.
The more he coughed, the more tears flowed uncontrollably. In the end, he could not help but cry out loud.
“Ah ah ah! It hurts too much. Sob sob sob.”
“Don’t cry anymore.” Jiang Yun had unknowingly walked to Kong Li’s side and patted his head.
“Be my underling from now on. I’ll take care of you.”
Kong Li sobbed as he raised his head to look at him. Jiang Yun’s tall figure was very close to him. The golden sunlight shone from behind him, giving Jiang Yun a warm halo.
‘This person can emit light.’, Kong Li thought.
