No More Wine for Xuan Zi

After being knocked away by Mu En, Xuan Zi also clutched his abdomen and retreated.

Although Mu En only struck a few times, those few strikes were enough to keep Xuan Zi from standing for Jiujiu.

Xuan Zi was terrified by these blows, but Xuan Zi Mu En had no intention of letting him go.

Originally, Mu En planned to let Xuan Zi admit his mistake and punish him lightly, since they were both old men who cared a lot about their reputation.

But Xuan Zi not only refused to admit his mistake, but also lied to deal with other Evil Spirit Master.

This infuriated Mu En, who then used his Divine Power to attack Xuan Zi.

This attack caused Xuan Zi to bleed from all seven orifices.

Yan Shaozhe rushed to Xuan Zi's side. Seeing that the other party was seriously injured, he immediately pleaded with Mu En, "Don't hit Mu En anymore. If you keep hitting him, Xuan Zi won't be able to hold on either!"

Seeing this, the elders also stepped forward to stop them.

"Mu En, let it go. Although he made mistakes leading the team and lied, it doesn't warrant this kind of torture..."

"Yes, Xuan Zi is also seriously injured!"

"Stop hitting Mu En. Xuan Zi was indeed in the wrong this time, but we can't just beat him like this..."

"We're just as angry, after all, Xuan Zi was definitely wrong this time, but please don't hit Mu En anymore, or Xuan Zi's old bones will probably fall apart..."

Despite the obstruction of a group of elders, Mu En had no intention of letting Xuan Zi off the hook, because this time, Xuan Zi had truly angered Mu En!

Then Mu En said to Xuan Zi, "Don't think that I will let you off just because these elders are pleading for you. Now, go and copy the Seagod Pavilion Elder Regulations and Laws ten thousand times!"

"No drinking until you finish copying!"

Hearing this, Xuan Zi became even more frightened!

If we don't give Xuan Zi any wine, what's the difference between that and taking his life?

So when Xuan Zi heard Mu En's words, his first reaction was, "No way, Mu En! You can't stop me from drinking! You're practically taking my life!"

"And I have to go back and lead the team!"

Upon hearing this, Mu En angrily retorted, "You've led the team to this state, and you're still leading them?"

"How many more of my talented students do you want to ruin?"

"Those are students we've painstakingly trained, and you've caused me to lose several of them in just one trip!"

"Do you think I'd dare let you lead the team? This is not up for discussion. Get out of here and copy the Seagod Pavilion Elder Regulations and Laws ten thousand times, then go and face the wall in meditation until I'm in a better mood before I set you free!"

Although Xuan Zi was unwilling after hearing this, he still obediently went to the library.

Seeing this, the elders were angry, but they didn't say anything more to Xuan Zi. After all, this punishment was something they hadn't expected, including Xuan Zi himself.

But things have already come to this, and there's no point in trying to persuade them now...

Xuan Zi had been thinking that if he succeeded this time, he might be able to stand in front of Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao.

Unfortunately, Ma Xiaotao wrote in such detail in her letter that she even mentioned that he slept in Dai Huabin's tent.

This was something he hadn't expected at all...

When Xuan Zi arrived at the library, he picked up paper and pen and began copying down the Seagod Pavilion Elder Regulations and Laws.

However, just before Xuan Zi began writing, he took another sip of wine. Little did he know that Mu En had noticed his sip, but instead of going directly to him, he notified Yan Shaozhe to come and see him.

Upon receiving the news, Yan Shaozhe immediately came to Mu En's side and respectfully said, "Master, your disciple is here. What can I do for you?"

Mu En sighed and said, "Go and take Xuan Zi's wine away. I forgot to take it back when I told him to leave."

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe readily agreed and then headed towards the library.

Upon arriving at the library, Yan Shaozhe saw Xuan Zi sitting in a chair, his hands never stopping as he copied down the Seagod Pavilion Elder Regulations and Laws.

When Xuan Zi saw Yan Shaozhe arrive, he looked at him as if he had found a lifeline and pleaded with him, "Yan Shaozhe Yan Shaozhe, you have to help me!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe said, "How can I help you, Xuan Zi?"

"Now that the teacher has given the order, you have to copy the Elder Regulations and Laws ten thousand times, there's nothing I can do to help you..."

Xuan Zi said, "You can plead for me when Mu En calms down!"

"I don't want to copy this stuff ten thousand times!"

"Besides, I don't want to be without alcohol!"

Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe said apologetically, "I guess it's hopeless this time. If you had listened to me and admitted your mistake, wouldn't everything have been fine?"

"Look at yourself now, trying to justify yourself like this."

"If things hadn't turned out this way, perhaps Mu En wouldn't be so angry, sigh..."

"I can't help you with this either. Mu En's current condition probably won't last less than two or three days..."

"After all, what you did this time really disappointed Mu En."

"So I can't help you this time either!"

"Oh, by the way, Mu En asked me to come here because there's something else."

As he spoke, Yan Shaozhe picked up Xuan Zi's wine jug and tucked it into his pocket.

Seeing this, Xuan Zi cried and said, "You can't take this wine with you! This is a wine I've treasured for many years, how can you just take it away from me like that!"

"Give me back my wine, Yan Shaozhe!"

Hearing Xuan Zi's words, Yan Shaozhe smiled wryly and said, "There's nothing I can do about it, Xuan Zi. After all, Mu En ordered me to come and get it, so I can only do as he says!"

"Otherwise I'll be punished too! So, Xuan Zi, please bear with it!"

"When Mu En is in a better mood, he will naturally return the wine to you."

"But that's impossible now, Xuan Zi Xuan Zi, I'm so sorry!"

After saying that, Yan Shaozhe, carrying the wine, quickly ran to Mu En's side and handed Xuan Zi's bottle of wine to Mu En.

Seeing this, Mu En nodded and then let Yan Shaozhe leave.

Although the meeting has now ended, the elders have not left, because Mu En still has some things to say.

As for Xuan Zi, he was also feeling quite upset because Yan Shaozhe had taken his wine.

Without alcohol, even eating chicken legs wouldn't taste that good!

He then harbored resentment towards Ma Xiaotao and Huo Yuhao.

"Without my leadership, let's see how long you can last. Besides, your team isn't even complete. You might not even be qualified to participate in the Soul Master Competition!"

"Even if you pass, it doesn't mean you're guaranteed to win. With so many injured people around, let's see how you'll lose!"

"Moreover, the two of you have ruined Shrek Academy's honor. When they return, you'll definitely get a good scolding!"

"They will definitely face some condemnation then!"

"And I can stay here and wait to see the show..."
