You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

Wei Yuanzi stroked his beard and smiled apologetically, "Lian'er has been my disciple for three years, and the friendship between us has long been deeply rooted. This time, I just wanted to accompany her to ask for a favor. Besides, Lian'er has long severed her relationship with the Hu family, so I hope Mr. Liu can show some mercy."

After saying that, he patted Hu Lian'er's shoulder gently and gave her a reassuring look.

Liu Yuntian lazily turned over, rubbed his eyes with his hands, yawned and said, "Let's talk about this after I finish my work... By the way, I don't have a stool here, so you guys can use whatever you want first."

After saying that, he closed his eyes again and continued to rest.

"you!"

Ruan Ao was about to step forward to argue, but was stopped by Wei Yuanzi.

Wei Yuanzi just shook his head slightly and winked at him, signaling him to be patient.

Although Ruan Ao was unwilling, he still suppressed his anger, shook his sleeves and retreated angrily, with the rage on his face becoming even more intense.

At this moment, a Jinyiwei rushed in from outside, knelt on one knee, and reported with his hands clasped: "Mr. Liu, the person has been brought here."

Liu Yuntian then opened his eyes, raised his hand and waved it, saying nonchalantly, "Then bring it in."

Then he slowly stood up from the recliner, stretched, picked up the tea bowl beside him, and took a big sip.

Immediately afterwards, two Jinyiwei came in with a national defender in armor.

The soldier looked nervous and walked with heavy steps. When he arrived at the pavilion, he knelt down with a thump and said with his head down, "Vanguard of the Tianke Battalion of the National Protection Army, Niu Kan greets Mr. Liu."

"Grrrrrrrrrrrr."

Liu Yuntian did not pay attention to the other party immediately, but took a big sip of water and rinsed his mouth.

"puff!"

The mouthwash was spat directly onto the face of the national defense soldier who was kneeling on the ground. The maid next to him hurriedly took a silk towel to wipe the corner of Liu Yuntian's mouth.

After waving his hand to dismiss the maid, he pointed at Wei Yuanzi and his group and asked, "Have you seen these people?"

Drops of water kept dripping from Niu Kan's chin, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe them away.

He turned around and glanced at a few people, then quickly bowed and said, "Mr. Liu... I just met him."

Liu Yuntian sneered after hearing this, then raised his head and shook his neck left and right, making a "crackling" sound, and asked in a casual tone, "How did they get in?"

After hearing this, if Niu Kan still didn't know why Liu Gong summoned him, he might as well just crash into a pillar and die.

Instantly, his whole body began to tremble, his eyes were filled with fear, and he knocked his head to the ground with a "bang", "It is my fault, please punish me, Lord Liu!"

"Do you know why my python chariot is pulled by ordinary horses?"

"I know...I know, flying is prohibited in Daliang..."

The Qingyun Sect disciples looked at each other in bewilderment. They seemed to not understand what was going on. Didn't they agree to come and plead for their junior sister? Why did they suddenly talk about the rules?

Liu Yuntian walked barefoot on the ground towards the edge of the pavilion, "Then take off your armor."

"promise!"

Niu Kan stood up and began to take off his armor. With a "bang", the armor fell heavily to the ground. Liu Yuntian took a quick look and said, "Take it off again."

"promise!"

Niu Kan took off all the clothes on his upper body, revealing his explosive muscles, and knelt on the ground again.

"Ah!" Several female disciples of Qingyun Sect covered their eyes shyly. "You lecher, why are you taking off your clothes in public? You are so shameless!"

The female disciples all covered their eyes with red faces, except Hu Qinglian. She knew very well what would happen next, and was so frightened that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled uncontrollably. She also took two steps towards the edge of the pavilion.

Liu Yuntian raised his finger and pointed at the people of Qingyun Sect and began to count, "1...2...5...7...10. Oh, by the way, this old guy is at the eighth level of Jindan, so the ones you can't stop don't count... Then let's make it nine."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Jinyiwei stood up and pulled out a barbed whip from his waist.

Liu Yuntian waved his hand, and two maids came over pulling a screen and stood across the front.

"See the bones."

The Jinyiwei received the order and raised his hands, "Yes!"

Then he raised his arm and swung the whip for the first time in front of everyone's horrified faces.

"Snapped!"

Blood suddenly spurted out and sprayed in the pavilion. Niu Kan was beaten to the ground by the whip and he clenched his teeth to prevent himself from uttering a sound.

"what!!!"

The female disciples whose faces were splashed with blood screamed. They had been practicing in seclusion in the sect since they were young, and had great cultivation skills, so how could they have ever seen such a bloody scene?

After seeing that there was a trace of bone scar on the back of the person being beaten, he retreated in panic and stood together with Hu Qinglian, leaning against each other.

"Clap clap clap clap!"

Soon the nine blows were completed. The back was already a mess, and traces of bones could be faintly seen on the criss-crossing whip marks. Niu Kan, who was lying on the ground, was already dying.

Niu Kan didn't utter a single sound from beginning to end.

Removing the bloodstained screen, Liu Yuntian stepped forward and said calmly, "You didn't say a word, you still have some backbone. Since you have been punished, you are still a good general in the National Defense Army. Go back."

"Thank you...thank you Mr. Liu...for the punishment..."

Niu Kan used all his strength to stand up again, and was then carried away by two Jinyiwei.

It was also the first time that Wei Yuanzi encountered such a situation. He didn't react for a while. He didn't protect himself from the first whip, and his beard was stained with some scarlet. At this moment, his face was already unhappy.

"Mr. Liu is trying to intimidate me!"

The maid brought up a new recliner, removed the screen, and let Liu Yuntian lie back on the recliner. "What are you talking about, Great Elder? If the subordinates don't obey, they will be punished."

After rubbing the dust off the soles of his feet on his trouser legs, Liu Yuntian sat up and looked in the direction of Hu Qinglian, counting on his fingers and muttering, "I spend so much money to support so many people, but they all break the rules. Where does all my money go?"

Wei Yuanzi turned his back and snorted coldly, "Lian'er is already a disciple of my Qingyun Sect, she is not a dog you raised!"

Liu Yuntian smiled and looked at Wei Yuanzi jokingly, "How about this, I'll pick a mortal to be your disciple, and you can keep Hu Qinglian."

"Ridiculous! Lian'er is a foundation-building cultivator, how can a mortal compare to her?"

"Then why don't you ask her who gave her the spirit stone pills to help her build her foundation?"
