What the heck! What did they just see?! Chu Jun Mo actually launched a sneak attack?!
Chu Jun Mo's gaze fell upon the hidden weapon on the ground, his heart in a panic. How was he supposed to explain this?
Ming Li walked forward with a blank expression, raised her hand, and the hidden weapon on the ground flew into her palm.
Ming Li looked at the hidden weapon in her hand, a slight smirk playing on her lips.
Tsk tsk tsk! An ancient, potent poison that caused death upon contact. It seemed this male lead had quite a few treasures on him!
Chu Jun Mo watched Ming Li pick up the venomous hidden weapon from the ground, a flicker of something quickly crossing his eyes before he remained silent. kanshu Wu.ξà
Seeing Ming Li arrive, Gong Yi Han hastily sheathed his sword and walked to Ming Li's side, speaking, "Disciple greets Master."
Ming Li glanced at Gong Yi Han with a smile that was not quite a smile, and then addressed the disciples present, "Alright, all of you, go back to your cultivation! Don't all gather here."
Upon hearing this, all the disciples replied in unison, "Yes!"
After all the disciples had left, Ming Li looked meaningfully at Chu Jun Mo and Gong Yi Han, then asked a question she already knew the answer to, "You two, why did you start fighting?"
Chu Jun Mo: ...
Master had said that sometimes, dealing with enemies required strategy and not just brute force.
With this thought, Gong Yi Han glanced at the silent Chu Jun Mo and spoke to Ming Li with a hint of grievance in his tone, "Reporting to Master, it's not Senior Brother Chu's fault. It's just that after you left, Senior Brother Chu found me and said I was incapable of holding the Ancestor Token you bestowed upon me, and wanted to keep it for me. I refused, so we started fighting. Master, please don't blame Senior Brother Chu, it's all my fault. Master, please punish me."
Chu Jun Mo: ... This sentence feels somehow odd? It sounds so familiar...
Hearing this, Ming Li's mouth twitched violently, and she looked at Gong Yi Han, who had suddenly become so demurely manipulative, with the gaze one reserves for idiots.
Ming Li: ... What is wrong with this guy? Did his brain get flooded or caught in a door? Or has he switched to the 'green tea' route?! An Oscar owes him a statuette.
The system was stunned by Gong Yi Han's dramatic maneuver.
System: ... What is happening?! This wasn't in the script! Could he have been swapped out?
As he spoke, two tears flowed from Gong Yi Han's eyes. He knelt directly before Ming Li, crying and deliberately revealing the injuries on his arm, then grabbed Ming Li's sleeve and said, "Master, it's really not Senior Brother Chu's fault!"
Ming Li: ... Is this guy an idiot? He's too damn good at acting.
The system scurried back into its space, its mouth twitching uncontrollably, its facial nerves almost seizing up.
At this moment, Chu Jun Mo also came to his senses, looking with a strange expression at Gong Yi Han, who was kneeling before Ming Li and sobbing uncontrollably.
Chu Jun Mo: ... Isn't this exactly the tactic used by those 'green tea' and 'white lotus' characters from modern times?! Could this guy also be from modern times?! Chu Jun Mo harbored strong doubts.
Ming Li rolled her eyes dramatically and directly addressed them, "Tomorrow, the Beilun Secret Realm will open, and there are many opportunities within. I hope you two will bury the hatchet and go to the Beilun Secret Realm tomorrow with some junior brothers and sisters to temper yourselves and improve your cultivation."
