As for the girl being supported, Xia Chen recognized it at a glance. It was Li Yatong, the eldest lady of the Li family whom she hadn't seen for many days.
Although she saw Li Yatong, Xia Chen's heart sank because Li Qitong was not by her side.
The eldest daughter of the Li family, who used to be so radiant and graceful, seemed to have completely changed. She had become extremely haggard. Her face was pale, her head was messy, her face was dirty, her clothes were shabby, and her body was covered with bruises.
Scars, obviously from what he suffered
Xia Chen was shocked. He didn't expect Li Yatong to fall into such a situation. He hurriedly went to greet her.
Li Yatong was still in a semi-conscious state. She opened her eyes slightly and looked at Xia Chen. She suddenly looked very surprised. She moved as if she wanted to say something, but her body was too weak. Just when she wanted to open her mouth, she fell down again.
Next, two handymen hurriedly supported her, seemingly very carefully.
"Xia Chen, it seems that you are doing well. You are already wearing the clothes of an inner disciple. Hehe, can you give some of us a few uniforms so that we can show off our power? Don't think that you have become an inner disciple.
You can forget about our colleagues in the handyman village.”
"It's been a year, and I finally see you again. What's wrong? Once you become an inner disciple, you won't go back to the servant village. Do you look down on us?"
"That's right, your kid actually passed the test, which really surprised us all. If I had known this, I would have taken the test, and I would definitely not be worse than you. Alas, no one can stop people if they are lucky."
"Back then, you just left and didn't even treat us to a meal. It was so unsatisfying. By the way, do you have any connections now? My brothers have something else to ask of you. Please hurry up and do it for us."
Seven or eight handymen quickly gathered around, looking at Xia Chen with jealousy on their faces, mouthing words that made their teeth sore, and they didn't know whether they were venting their anger or unwillingness.
When they first entered the sect, they were very cautious and cautious, just like country people entering the palace, but after meeting Xia Chen, they became much more unrestrained.
Although Xia Chen is now a high-ranking inner sect disciple, in their eyes, Xia Chen still remains in the past impression of the handyman who became everyone's joke, so he speaks without any scruples. As the saying goes, there is no point in being ignorant.
Xia Chen just smiled. Although he had lived in the handyman village for five years, he originally had no friendship with these handymen. Instead, he was mostly poked at and laughed at in secret. Naturally, it is impossible for him to have anything in common now.
Although these handymen have a low status, most of them are poor and short-minded and very snobbish. In fact, Lin Mengru's change of heart was mainly due to the influence of the handymen in the same village.
He took out a few taels of silver from his pocket and handed them to several handymen respectively. He said gently: "Thank you for your hard work. You can buy something with this money. Now just give this girl to me. I know her."
Several servants weighed the money, with greedy expressions on their faces, and then put it away quietly without any intention of letting go of Li Yatong. The two servants who were holding Li Yatong suddenly dragged her back and stood for a while.
Looking at Xia Chen with an indifferent face
Xia Chen frowned
"Xia, it seems that you are different after joining the sect and you want to beat us with just a small amount of money? Do you think we are beggars?" A handyman said coldly, "Don't think that we will do anything if you become an inner disciple.
In our eyes, when we look at you, you are the handyman back then, the guy we treated as a joke."
"That's right." Another handyman sneered, looking very disdainful, "I just relied on luck to get in. What's there to pretend about? I said the surname is Xia. We personally sent this person to the mountain for you. That's for you."
To save face, otherwise this little girl looks so juicy and tender, wouldn't it be better for us to keep it for ourselves and enjoy it without telling you?"
"This little money will be used as money to treat us to a meal when you enter the mountain gate. Apart from that, we have other things to do, so hurry up and do them for us, and then find some easy errands for us.
Otherwise, don’t even think about taking this person away. Damn it, why do you think you are the only one who can monopolize good things? Do you think it’s a big deal if you enter the mountain gate?” The third handyman was very impatient and cursed.
"What do you do for a living? How dare you threaten the inner disciples? Hand them over quickly and get out of here right away," Chen Lie shouted angrily.
He originally thought that these handymen knew Xia Chen and were helping to bring the people up, but now it seemed that was not the case and he couldn't help but be furious.
Several handymen suddenly looked frightened. Although they were not afraid of Xia Chen, they had never seen Chen Lie before. When he scolded him majestically, they suddenly panicked.
The status of the handymen is low, far inferior to that of the inner disciples. If Chen Lie wanted to beat them up and then remove them, it would be too easy. How many people in rural towns with a radius of hundreds of miles would line up to wait for the spot of the handymen?
"Senior brother, we are talking to Xia Chen, not you. If you have any instructions, just mention it, but another senior brother has taken a liking to this girl first, and we don't dare to let her go..." Then
The first servant showed a flattering smile and smiled at Chen Lie. He was extremely cautious in answering, for fear of offending this inner disciple.
"Chen Lie, let's take people back." Xia Chen shook his head. He really didn't want to say anything more to these snobs.
"You want to rob someone?" The first handyman had just waved his tail to please Chen Lie, and immediately turned stern to Xia Chen, "Xia Chen, don't think that just because you have become a disciple of the Zhengxuan Sect, you can boss us around. You have just become a disciple of the Zhengxuan Sect.
One year as an inner disciple is also
She is the lowest level existence, not much higher than us, so what are you trying to do? Let me tell you, this woman is attracted by one of your big shots, senior brother. If you want to take her away, it is not impossible, you have to agree to us.
The conditions just now”
"Do I owe you anything?" Xia Chen said calmly.
The handyman sneered, "You don't owe it, but we just want it, so what? If you don't agree, don't even think about taking this girl away. Let's give her a good bath when we get back and have a couple's bath together. Look.
It depends on how you play with her. By the way, you are also an inner disciple now, so being able to play with a woman who is an inner disciple, hey, how cool do you think it would be?"
Seeing Xia Chen become a high-ranking inner disciple, for some reason, these servants felt unreasonable jealousy in their hearts, as if they felt why such a good thing did not happen to them, and the good cabbage was given to pigs.
In their weak consciousness, Xia Chen should be inferior to them and should not be higher than him. Especially seeing Xia Chen's indifferent look made several handymen feel extremely angry, so they spoke in a special way.
vicious
And being able to insult an inner disciple in person, the inner world of these people is also filled with extremely insidious excitement.
"Looking for death" Chen Lie's eyes flashed coldly. These people dared to act recklessly in front of Xia Chen, which had triggered his murderous intention.
Xia Chen stopped Chen Lie and smiled lightly: "I really want to meet that big shot brother you mentioned and see who has taken a fancy to this girl."
When the handymen saw that Chen Lie was angry, their faces suddenly turned pale. However, thinking of the senior brother behind him, they still felt quite confident. They sneered a few times in a strong-looking manner: "I advise you that it is better not to know? I'm afraid to tell you."
Come out and scare you half to death..."
"Chen Liu, Ma Si, you idiots, where is the girl I fell in love with yesterday? Who asked you to bring her to the mountain? Do you want to die?" A frustrated voice rang out.
As the hurried footsteps approached quickly, a burly young disciple walked over angrily, rolled up his sleeves, and pushed through the crowd. Just as he was about to get angry, he suddenly saw Xia Chen and Chen Lie, and his expression changed drastically.
"Senior Brother Lin, you came just in time." The handyman's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said to please, "The young men are just trying to send this girl to your house, so as not to make you have to go down the mountain and go back and forth.
But who would have thought..."
He pointed at Xia Chen with his hand, and his expression suddenly turned vicious again: "This guy named Xia Chen saw how beautiful he was, and he actually stopped us and wanted to intercept this girl. I have repeatedly said that it is Senior Brother Lin who is interested in you.
People, but this guy still doesn't care and still wants to rob. Senior Brother Lin, you have to make the decision for us."
He just failed to blackmail Xia Chen, so he simply retorted, thinking that although Xia Chen was also an inner disciple, how could he be as high-ranking as Senior Brother Lin? It was just a good time to take advantage of Xia Chen, who let this guy compare to himself and others?
Lucky
"I can also testify that Xia Chen is a disciple of the inner sect. He has lustful thoughts and wants to make things difficult for us. Although we are servants, we are also people taught by your senior brother Lin. How can we encourage this evil trend? Please also ask
Brother Lin, teach this shameless adulterer a lesson," the second servant said seriously, looking at Xia Chen with evil intent.
"Senior Brother Lin, we knew this Xia Chen before. He was a stinky handyman back then. He didn't know how he got into the sect. He was just a joke in our handyman village." The third handyman was a shady boy.
Test Tunnel
"Shut the hell up," the young disciple yelled. His face turned green, the veins on his neck were knotted, and his whole body was trembling. He was obviously extremely angry and frightened.
He was very uneasy in his heart. He just wanted to pay respects to Xia Chen and Chen Lie respectfully and explain carefully, so as not to let senior brother Xia Chen misunderstand him. Unexpectedly, these damn handymen came like this.
out
Nowadays, Xia Chen is very popular and has a high status within the sect. After Chen Qiu Shui entered the realm of supernatural powers, he has firmly ranked first among acquired disciples. Especially after returning from the beast garden, according to various legends, Xia Chen's reputation is...
Now that he has reached the point of supreme glory, even Chen Qiushui is inferior to him back then. Who dares to offend this powerful senior brother without having eyesight?
Unexpectedly, I was so cowardly and foolish that I actually grabbed the head of Senior Brother Xia's woman. Moreover, the nonsense of these reckless handymen probably made Senior Brother Xia's impression of me extremely bad...
…When he thought of this, Senior Brother Lin couldn’t help but look so gloomy (To be continued)
