Chapter 142: Chapter 141 Rabbit Taught_1

Li Zhenying pondered and said, "He just came over, saying there were bugs behind me. When I turned around, he grabbed my Bunny and ran. I chased after him, but he wouldn’t give it back, saying he would return it if I could beat him."

"And then?" Li Jing asked.

Li Zhenying replied, "Then I slapped him and gave him a kick... I had no idea he was so frail..."

Li Jing: "..."

The butler said, "Master, Ao Sui will come of age next year, and his strength has already reached the level of a Three Star Human Immortal. Ordinary celestial children can’t beat him at all. According to your instructions, the young lady has never practiced any Cultivation Technique, nor does she have any Magic. This..."

Li Jing waved his hand and said, "Take Zhenying back now."

"Yes, Master," the butler took Li Zhenying away.

After some thought, Li Jing picked up his magic sword and went straight to Wenqu Palace...

At the same time, Ao Sui, held in the arms of the South Sea Dragon King, also felt a bit better.

The South Sea Dragon King asked, "Sui, why did that girl hit you so hard?"

Upon hearing this, Ao Sui burst into tears and said, "Grandfather... am I practicing fake cultivation? Everyone says Li Zhenying has never practiced any Cultivation Technique, yet I am a Three Star Human Immortal, and still, I couldn’t withstand her slap. I must have cultivated into a fake immortal..."

The South Sea Dragon King was at a loss for words and patted Ao Sui on the back, saying, "That child is inherently..."

At this point, the South Sea Dragon King fell silent, then continued, "Anyhow, don’t lose heart, you’ll surpass her sooner or later. Sui, what exactly happened? Why did she hit you?"

Looking quite miserable, Ao Sui said, "I thought she was cute, so every time I visited the Li family, I liked to play with her. But she’s so shy, she doesn’t interact with anyone. So I took the rabbit doll she was sewing to play with, and then she slapped me. What happened after that, I don’t know..."

Upon hearing this, the South Sea Dragon King was at a loss for words. What an injustice to be beaten like this! It’s the classic tale of teasing gone wrong and getting hit instead...

However, he couldn’t let it go since his own child was beaten up like this.

Moreover, he had already boasted previously; if he did nothing, wouldn’t it be humiliating?

So, the South Sea Dragon King whispered something to Ao Sui, who exclaimed, "Grandfather is asking me to lie?"

"It’s not lying, just a different way of phrasing it. The outcome will be the same," said the South Sea Dragon King.

Ao Sui nodded along...

The South Sea Dragon King narrowed his eyes and said, "As far as I know, that child is timid by nature, and Li Jing never intended for her to practice Cultivation Techniques or Magic. He just wanted her to be raised like a normal child, which is why he sent her to Wenqu Palace to study poetry and literature, not to Wuqu Palace to practice cultivation... So, who taught her Magic? Your beating has to be attributed to that person in the end. I’ll do some investigating later..."

The reasoning of the South Sea Dragon King was far-fetched, but he was well aware that this was the only way to handle the situation.

Now, the Li family was no longer the Li family of Chentang Pass that people could push around easily. Today’s Li family had a say both in the Heavenly Court and in Buddhism, with Li Jing commanding the Heavenly Court’s mighty forces and commanding respect from all sides. The family had numerous talented members and was thriving fantastically.

Some joked that this was the golden age of the Li family, and although it might be an exaggeration, there was certainly some truth to it.

This demonstrates how powerful and influential the Li family was, so even as the South Sea Dragon King boasted loudly, he didn’t dare to openly confront the Li family. Even if he went to Lingxiao Hall, it would just be to make a point and save face.

But with unresolved anger, if you can’t hit the strong, you find a softer target to squeeze...

Thus, after returning, the South Sea Dragon King immediately ordered people to investigate who exactly had taught Li Zhenying her Cultivation Techniques and Magic...

Not long afterward, inside the Wenqu Palace.

"Master, the Pagoda-bearing Heavenly Lord has arrived." Longhuai said.

Wenqu Star Monarch shook his head, "No, he hasn’t."

Clang!

The door was kicked open, and Li Jing, holding a sword, walked in. With a smack, the magic sword was laid on Wenqu Star Monarch’s desk, and then he sat down cross-legged, saying, "Wenqu Star Monarch, long time no see."

Seeing Li Jing’s grim-faced appearance, Wenqu Star Monarch knew that today’s matter would not end easily, so he also sat down and gestured for Longhuai to serve tea.

"There’s no need for tea. I am here only for one thing," said Li Jing.

Wenqu Star Monarch nodded, signifying Longhuai to leave.

Longhuai immediately obeyed, went out and closed the door.

Before the door was shut, Longhuai still saw the two sitting upright, displaying the decorum of a scholar and a Heavenly Lord, silent, each with full marks for quality and cultivation.

But as soon as Longhuai picked up the door that had been kicked down and closed it, the voices inside suddenly changed in tone.

"Wenqu Star, you old fart, what kind of mess have you made babysitting the kid? My child is so gentle and now what’s become of him? He nearly flew up to Heaven! The Dragon King’s grandson was beaten to a pulp! Two out of our three tables are broken. What on earth have you done to my child?" Li Jing’s voice was thunderous, shaking the very house.

Longhuai’s heart trembled, thinking, are they going to come to blows?

Then he heard Wenqu Star Monarch shout back, "What could I have done? If you’re so awesome, why didn’t you look after the child yourself? You have a kid and you neglect him, going off to have fun, dumping him on me. I managed not to lose him, which is good enough. What more do you want?" He then straightened his voice and said very formally, "Oh, right, you haven’t paid this year’s school fees! I’ve been looking for you, but your butler kept saying you were away with the troops and hadn’t returned. Now that you’re here, pay up!"

...

Li Jing fell silent for a while, and then with a somewhat diminished confidence he protested, "Am I the type to skimp on school fees?"

Wenqu Star Monarch replied, "You haven’t paid your second son’s fees either. It’s already been long overdue. Let me calculate for you..."

Li Jing quickly said, "I’ll give it to you tomorrow!"

Wenqu Star Monarch continued, "You haven’t paid for your oldest son’s fees either."

Li Jing impatiently replied, "I’ll pay you back tomorrow!"

Wenqu Star went on, "Your third son has burnt down a forest, two fruit trees and broken eighteen columns..."

Li Jing slammed the table, with great firmness declaring, "Wait until you have the full account, then talk to me."

Wenqu Star Monarch immediately replied, "Altogether eighty thousand Spirit Crystals!"

Li Jing instantly said, "Tomorrow..." Then realizing something was off in the conversation and feeling a bit unsettled, he quickly changed the subject, "We’ll talk about that another day. Today, I’ve come to discuss Zhenying. You promised me you wouldn’t teach her Magic! You are well aware of her issues. What were you thinking?"

Wenqu Star Monarch with an air of nonchalance, said, "I kept my word, I didn’t teach her!"

Li Jing frowned, "Then who did?"

Wenqu Star Monarch slightly smiled and answered, "Bunny taught her."

The speed and ease with which Wenqu Star Monarch threw Bunny under the bus were as if he had been preparing for this moment, utterly eager.

Li Jing’s brows furrowed tightly, "Which rabbit?"
