This is Mine

The cramped room was in disarray after the struggle.

Li Xi lay helplessly on the cold floor, his arms twisted at grotesque angles, his eyes glaring with venom at Ye Li's back.

As a legitimate son of the Li Family, he had been trampled underfoot by this lowly commoner he had always treated like dirt, his arms snapped in the process!

Under his gaze, Ye Li stood with his back to him, reaching out to rummage through the bedding.

The neatly folded quilts were tossed aside layer by layer, falling to the floor and gathering dust.

"You... you lowly commoner! How dare you touch my things?!"

Li Xi struggled to rise, but Ye Li didn't even look back, his voice as cold as ice:

"If you don't want your legs snapped just like your arms, stay on the ground like a dog and wait quietly for the instructors to arrive."

"The Li Family will not let you get away with this!"

Li Xi gritted his teeth, attempting to regain some confidence through the weight of his family's influence: "You haven't even reached the Entry Realm; crushing you would be as easy as crushing a chicken for my family."

"You should be worrying about whether you can make it home alive; there is still a month left until the next leave," Ye Li said while continuing his search.

Thanks to the Azure Dragon Gang's closed-off management, these new disciples had only been allowed to leave the compound for one day yesterday.

If they missed that window, these newcomers would either have to wait a month or be carried out as corpses.

Therefore, the Li Family's reach could not extend inside during this period.

Ye Li had weighed the pros and cons long before he made his move, which was why he had launched his assault so decisively.

"A month! What can you do in a month?"

Li Xi lay on the floor and laughed wildly: "You don't actually think you can stand against my family after just one month, do you!"

At this moment, Li Xi had realized Ye Li's calculations and was certain the other party wouldn't dare kill him.

Not to mention that the gang rules forbade it!

Even if he were to die, his clan would surely receive the news, and at that point, the other party's entire family would have nowhere to run!

Ye Li did not answer; after searching, he pulled a porcelain bottle from Li Xi's bed.

The moment it was retrieved, Li Xi's throat went dead silent, as if he had been choked.

"Pop—"

Opening the lid of the porcelain bottle, Ye Li peered inside to see four milky-white pills emitting a fragrant scent.

Four Body Tempering Pill!

This was the quota Li Xi had brought from his clan during his leave yesterday.

There had originally been five, but he had used one for his cultivation yesterday.

Xianxia novels, the post-battle looting phase—a must-experience!

Anyway, Ye Li had forgotten to turn off his auto-loot function!

Mortal (468/862)
Azure Dragon Force (1425/100)

Ye Li looked at the experience points on his panel.

With the help of these Body Tempering Pill, he was confident he could reach the Entry Realm within 20 days.

By then, he could leave the compound 10 days earlier than Li Xi, and his status would be promoted to that of a core disciple, changing his circumstances entirely.

As a core disciple, as long as things didn't reach the point of a total falling out, the Li Family would not dare to move against him openly!

Whether it was relying on the Azure Dragon Gang to make the Li Family wary or arranging for his aunt and uncle's family to leave 10 days in advance, both were well within his reach.

If all else failed, Ye Li still had other trump cards.

There was no need to worry about his family being implicated because of this piece of trash.

Dividing the Body Tempering Pill that now belonged to him into two portions and tucking them into his robes, Ye Li glanced at the red-faced Li Xi as if looking at a cripple.

The two remained in a dead silence, one lying on the ground and the other standing in place waiting.

"What happened here?" A familiar, steady voice entered the room.

Because this area was considered the newcomer section of the gang, it was managed by Feng Yue and was located far away from the twenty-person communal dormitory!

Thus, after the incident, he, as the instructor for the newcomers, had arrived at the scene before the other gang members.

Seeing the instructor walk in, Ye Li shed his previous indifference, his face showing a sense of relief as if he had found his backbone. He hurried to meet him before Li Xi could speak: "Instructor, thank heavens, you've finally arrived!"

"Li Xi here was dissatisfied with his own performance and provoked me; after a struggle, I accidentally injured him!"

As he spoke, Ye Li stood with his back to Li Xi, and in the blind spot of Li Xi's vision, he cupped his hands, revealing a corner of the porcelain bottle.

This was the very bottle scavenged from Li Xi's bed, which contained the three remaining Body Tempering Pill.

Having finished stating Li Xi's crimes in advance, Ye Li lowered his head and, under Feng Yue's stunned gaze, poured one Body Tempering Pill into his mouth while hidden from Li Xi's view.

Gulp—

With a gulp, the Body Tempering Pill slid into his stomach.

Ye Li forcibly suppressed the surging blood in his veins, recapped the porcelain bottle, and said with a tearful voice, "Instructor Feng, you must seek justice for me!"

As he spoke, he kept his hands clutching the bottle behind his back, away from Li Xi, and shoved it into the chest of Feng Yue.

A thousand arts! This was Harmonize with the Light and Dust!!!

Thanks to Ye Li's hand speed, the entire process—from speaking to passing the medicine—was completed in just two seconds.

Feng Yue felt his palm sink as a familiar, cold porcelain bottle landed in his hand.

He instinctively glanced down at the gap in the bottle's stopper...

A flash of milky, rounded luster vanished in an instant, and the familiar scent of medicine was faintly detectable.

Immediately, the tense, angry expression on Feng Yue's face softened.

Feng Yue: To think there would be an unexpected harvest???

Looking at Li Xi, who was lying on the ground with his view completely blocked by Ye Li's figure, the two exchanged a tacit look.

Quietly tucking the bottle away, Feng Yue gave an awkward cough and said:

"Ahem... Well, I have a general understanding of the situation. Little Ye, step aside; let me see how badly he is injured."

As he spoke, he pushed Ye Li aside and walked toward Li Xi.

Crouching down, Feng Yue ignored the other's wailing and complaints, pulling at his dangling arms.

"It's fine, minor injury. Just a broken arm, he'll be back to normal after half a month of rest."

"But you'll have to stop martial arts training for this month. You too, Little Ye—playing around with fellow disciples, you really don't know your own strength!"

Feng Yue looked at the broken arms and said, "I can make the call to exempt you from this month's assessment standards."

Indeed, in Feng Yue's eyes, an injury like a broken arm was nothing more than a trivial matter.

The people of this world possessed countless traits that could be applied to various fields, leading to a bizarrely developed technological tree.

In terms of medicine, it was far beyond the ancient times of his past life; external injuries like broken arms could be healed after a period of rest using the sect's methods.

This was the reason Li Xi was merely indignant rather than broken.

Otherwise, if his martial path had been crushed by Ye Li's foot, it would have been no different from a death sentence, and he likely would have risked suicide to drag Ye Li down with him!

Watching Feng Yue examine the injury, Ye Li was nearly suffering internal damage himself from having swallowed the Body Tempering Pill.

Blood energy surged wildly within him, and unable to circulate his cultivation to aid digestion, he could only breathe heavily, forcing his blood and qi to settle.

During this time, the commotion attracted more and more people, and the noise eventually alerted the Law Enforcement Hall!

As a group of men in white robes with red patterns arrived, the serious atmosphere caused the scene to fall silent instantly.

"What happened here?"

The leader of the Law Enforcement Hall ignored the others and looked directly at Feng Yue, who held the highest status present!

"The young ones have hot tempers; they were playing around and got a bit carried away. Both arms were broken, but he'll be fine after a few days of rest," Feng Yue said calmly, characterizing the incident as "playing around"!

As he spoke, Feng Yue stepped forward and gave a brief account of what had happened.

But Li Xi had no intention of letting the matter rest.

Seeing that Feng Yue was not siding with him, he wailed toward the Law Enforcement Hall members as if clutching at a straw:

"Reporting to the Law Enforcement Lord, Ye Li started the trouble, broke my arms by stepping on them, and even robbed me of the Body Tempering Pill issued to me by my clan!"
