Beating Up Their Patriarchs
Zhang Yang took out a pill and handed it to Kong Xiuping.
Just by looking at the aura emanating from the pill, one can tell it is a top-grade pill.
Kong Xiuping was initially indignant, but when Zhang Yang handed him a top-grade pill, he didn't refuse and immediately took it and swallowed it on the spot.
Then, he felt a powerful medicinal force surge through his body, followed by a feeling of clarity that welled up in his heart.
The buttocks that had been struck with more than five hundred Disciplinary Ruler of the cane were already red, swollen, and even injured.
Under the powerful effects of the medicine, he recovered quickly.
Feeling the power of the elixir, Kong Xiuping felt much better.
Ultimately, he brought this upon himself.
If he hadn't disciplined these disciples with Disciplinary Ruler for over half a month, would these Azure Cloud Sect disciples have been so angry?
More importantly, some of the Azure Cloud Sect disciples actually grasped the power and broke through his Suppressing Character Art and Binding Character Art.
Then, a group of the Nascent Soul Realm laid an ambush and managed to capture a prodigy at the Primordial Spirit Realm...
Whose fault is that?
Even with the support from the Azure Cloud Sect, such as the Soul-Suppressing Banner, the Immortal-Binding Rope, and Talisman, it shouldn't have been easy for several Nascent Soul Realm to take him down.
Who is he?
The son of Sage Master, Saint Master's Secret Art and possesses a powerful Spirit Artifact; he has reached the Primordial Spirit Realm!
The reason he stumbled was entirely because he was too careless and too indulgent!
Simply put, he can only blame himself for being stupid!
"Don't think you can just let this go with a pill!" Kong Xiuping muttered. "Let me tell you, I'm not done with them yet."
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Six months? It hasn't even been a month yet!"
Since I asked you to be my sparring partner, I'll naturally let you have your way.
Some bottom-line issues don't need to be discussed; everyone is aware of them.
"However... Brother Kong, I'd like to discuss a topic with you." Zhang Yang gave a strange smile. "Do you think this world is a mirror?"
Our past actions and words will one day reflect back on us.
Isn't this a case of Karmic Cause and Effect and effect?
Kong Xiuping sneered and said, "If that's really the case, you're the one who should be worried!"
In his view, Zhang Yang committed so many "evil deeds," so shouldn't he be the one most deserving of retribution?
"Me?" Zhang Yang shook his head. "I'm a law-abiding citizen!"
As the old saying goes, "Use a bronze mirror to straighten your clothes; use history as a mirror to understand the rise and fall of dynasties; use people as a mirror to understand your own gains and losses."
I examine myself three times a day, so it's absolutely impossible for anything to go wrong.
But Brother Kong, you..."
Kong Xiuping was taken aback; he felt that Zhang Yang's words made a lot of sense.
Suddenly, he remembered that when he was being beaten up, a kid was taking pictures next to him.
That's how he made the Azure Cloud Gazette last time, taking the blame for something huge.
If the footage of this beating were to appear in the Azure Cloud Gazette again, it would be an utter disgrace to the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm.
He immediately became anxious and said frantically, "You can't do this! You're not allowed to put my footage in the Azure Cloud Gazette, otherwise... I..."
He was so angry he didn't know what to say.
Zhang Yang glanced at Kong Xiuping and obediently said, "I'll go to Azure Cloud Gazette and stop them for you!"
He turned and went to Azure Cloud City.
In reality, Azure Cloud Gazette isn't a place that publishes everything; how could it possibly publish such a scene?
Moreover, Kong Xiuping's position is quite important, so he wouldn't allow such an embarrassing incident to be exposed.
Of course, these scenes will definitely become "treasured" memories for the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect.
Zhang Yang planned to remind the Azure Cloud Sect disciples to take good care of these "treasures".
Because, with Kong Xiuping's talent, he will sooner or later become famous throughout the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
When the time comes, these "treasures" can be sold to Kong Xiuping for an astronomical price!
Kong Xiuping was relieved to see that Zhang Yang was willing to intervene.
Although he had been tricked by Zhang Yang many times, Zhang Yang was still quite reliable in some matters.
Then, recalling what had happened that day, he couldn't help but cover his face with his hands.
That's so embarrassing!
He never imagined that one day he would be beaten up by a group of disciples below the Nascent Soul Realm!
Just thinking about that scene made his buttocks ache again.
His face turned sour!
Looking back now, he realizes he's been incredibly inhuman for the past two weeks!
It was one thing to fight the male disciples, but they even attacked the female disciples... and even those at the Foundation Establishment Realm...
"Hehe, these Azure Cloud Sect disciples are all geniuses. Sooner or later, they will definitely become the founders of the Azure Cloud Sect! I, Kong, actually beat up all the founders of their Azure Cloud Sect... Hehe!"
Kong Xiuping felt relieved at the thought of such a scene.
Who has done such a feat?
He beat up all the founders of other sects and even spanked them with Disciplinary Ruler...
Just thinking about it is so awesome!
The slight resentment Kong Xiuping felt about being beaten vanished completely.
Regardless, he made the first move; it's unfair to allow him to strike first while forbidding others from doing so...
Kong Xiuping flew back to Zhang Yang's villa. Reflecting on the past two weeks, he felt that it was truly as Zhang Yang had said: the world is like a mirror; what is projected out will one day be projected back onto oneself...
"Using bronze as a mirror, one can straighten one's clothes; using history as a mirror, one can understand the rise and fall of dynasties; using people as a mirror, one can understand one's gains and losses..."
When he thought of those words, Kong Xiuping gradually grasped something within himself, and then he became lost in thought.
His thoughts quickly expanded outwards.
On Azure Cloud Peak, Azure Cloud Master's expression changed. He hurriedly mobilized the Laws of Heaven and Earth to isolate Kong Xiuping from the surrounding world, preventing other factors from disturbing Kong Xiuping's enlightenment.
The members of the Azure Cloud Sect were still drinking tea and eating melons on Azure Cloud Peak when they saw this scene, and they were all shocked.
Cang Song looked completely bewildered. "You've already attained enlightenment?"
Even someone as powerful as him, at the Dao Integration Realm, couldn't find a way to enter the Tribulation Realm.
This kid has actually started to comprehend the Dao?
Hualingzi gazed intently at Kong Xiuping in the painting. As a scholar himself, he was quite interested in Kong Xiuping's enlightenment.
The others in the Azure Cloud Sect were only amazed by Kong Xiuping's enlightenment, but did nothing else.
Even if Kong Xiuping were a disciple of the Langya Sacred Land or an ally, they would never interfere with Kong Xiuping enlightenment, even if he were just a Primordial Spirit Realm without any status.
Even if this kind of enlightenment is extremely unusual.
They would even lend a hand if they could.
Of course, they certainly wouldn't let go of the opportunity to "observe the Dao."
"Hurry and come to observe the Dao!"
Upon receiving the message from his master, Zhang Yang immediately returned to Azure Cloud Peak.
Zhang Yang was somewhat dumbfounded when he saw Kong Xiuping attain enlightenment.
This kid's talent is truly extraordinary!
After being beaten for a while, he actually attained enlightenment.
He no longer needed to worry about Kong Xiuping harboring any resentment.
"Master, how did he begin to comprehend the Dao?" Zhang Yang asked.
Azure Cloud Master conjured up a scene of Kong Xiuping before his enlightenment, and Zhang Yang was immediately stunned.
"Using bronze as a mirror, one can straighten one's clothes; using history as a mirror, one can understand the rise and fall of dynasties; using people as a mirror, one can understand one's gains and losses."
Is there anything wrong with this statement?
He carefully observed Kong Xiuping's enlightenment, trying to see what Kong Xiuping had come to understand.
