chapter 1395: lesson!translator: larbre studio editor: larbre studio
when he was communicating with qiu yue and found out that they were on tai yuan star, jian wushuang found it fishy.
after all, qiu yue and the others were their own servants. what they wanted to do was to serve him and help him to take care of sword star. why would they need to work elsewhere?
then, looking at the sight before himâ¦
jian wushuang didnât need to ask and he understood.
âyoung man, who are you?â the bald elderly holding a green whip looked at jian wushuang as he squinted his eyes.
âsword star, jian wushuang,â jian wushuang spoke coldly.
âjian wushuang? disciple of star palace?â the bald elderly was shocked.
although he was a universe god in the third heaven, he wasnât the real disciple of lineage of star. in other words, he was just a servant in lineage of star. he didnât have any identity token and hence he couldnât feel the aura of disciples of star palace on jian wushuang. he couldnât feel the token aura but he had heard of jian wushuangâs name.
even though they were in lineage of star, the ordinary disciples didnât bother with jian wushuang, however, he wasnât someone a servant could provoke and get involved with.
âi see. itâs mister jian wushuang. i am bai lipeng,â the bald elderly replied humbly. sÑará´h the nôvel(f)ire.nÑt website on google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
âbai lipeng? youâre the one who brought my people to tai yuan star?â jian wushuang spoke in a low voice.
âthis⦠mister jian wushuang, i think you misunderstood. i never forced them to work here. they came willingly. you can ask them if you do not believe me,â the bald elderly bai lipeng smiled faintly. he wasnât worried that qiu yue would tell him the truth because, as long as qiu yue wasnât stupid, they would know that their owner couldnât possibly provoke his owner.
hence, they could only say that they did it willingly. then, the matter would be diminished, which was beneficial for both parties.
however, if the truth were to be told and even if jian wushuang had the heart to come forward on their behalf, he didnât have the power to. in the end, he would only be inviting trouble. similarly, it wouldnât end well for them either.
jian wushuang squinted his eyes and glanced at the people around him. he noticed that the maids and servants had lowered their heads. even qiu yue stopped before she spoke and then lowered her head like everyone else.
jian wushuang wasnât surprised but glared at bai lipeng. he glared at the whip in his hand and said, âdo you think iâm blind? the look like this and you say that they did it willingly?â
âmister jian wushuang,â bai lipeng lifted his head and smiled faintly, âiâm working for mister xia feng. mister xia feng is kind and generous. he knew that we servants have it tough, so he gave us time to cultivate respectively. however, as they were doing so, no one could take care of tai yuan star. as such, i asked the people in sword star for help.â
âmister xia feng did it out of empathy with us servants. we canât reject him. i think even mister jian wushuang wouldnât want to see mister xia feng unhappy, right?â
âxia feng?â jian wushuangâs pupils contracted.
he had heard of xia feng. he was also a universe god in the second heaven, and also a disciple of star palace!
the only difference was that xia feng had proved his identity with his power long ago but jian wushuang⦠there was almost no one who recognized him to qualify his identity as disciples of star palace.
âso he gave an order for his own people to cultivate but let the people under my command work for you. thatâs interesting.â
jian wushuang sneered at him but his gaze turned cold the very next moment.
âforget about the fact if it was xia fengâs order. even if it was, we are both disciples of star palace, without my consent, you forced my people to work here on tai yuan star, does he qualify to do so?â
ânot only did you force my people to work for you, but you also hit my people⦠humph!â
there was a sharp glare in jian wushuangâs eyes and his figure suddenly charged forward.
jian wushuang appeared before bai lipeng directly and the latter realized and waited to come to blows.
rumble!
a scary soul attack consolidated into a sharp thorn and pierced through bai lipengâs sea of consciousness.
âah!â
bai lipeng let out a groan in pain. his eyes turned bloodshot and his consciousness drowned in extreme pain. he lost the ability to fight back.
pak!
jian wushuangâs hand slapped bai lipengâs face and bai lipeng flew off. at the same time, he grabbed the green whip from bai lipengâs hand.
âyou dare to whip my people. let me teach you a lesson today!â
a cold voice was heard from jian wushuangâs mouth. he gripped the long whip and swung. the long whip became a soul snake and whipped bai lipengâs body continuously.
pak! pak! pak! pak! pak!
the loud whipping sound could be heard clearly, accompanied by bai lipengâs roars and bellows.
bai lipeng was a universe god in the third heaven. he wanted to counter-attack with his all. however, as jian wushuang wielded the long whip, it naturally contained soul attack. every whip brought bai lipeng into a sluggish situation. he couldnât dodge, nor he could match.
he could only embrace every whip on him. in just a short while, he was whipped by jian wushuang more than a hundred times.
from more than a hundred lashes, bai lipengâs clothes were torn and his skin was worn. some parts of his bone and flesh were mashed up too. he turned into raw flesh and was extremely pathetic but he was still alive.
âshow mercy, mister jian wushuang. let me live!â
bai lipeng started pleading.
he had no alternative, he had to ask for mercy.
if he didnât, he reckoned he wouldâve died from the whipping that jian wushuang gave.
âhumph!â
jian wushuang whipped bai lipengâs face once and finally stopped.
âlisten up. i do not care if it was your personal idea or xia fengâs order. let me keep this short, my people, without my consent, cannot be ordered to do anything!â
then, jian wushuang threw the green whip away. he looked at the maids and servants who were shocked and said, âletâs go back to sword star!â
qiu yue and the rest came back to reality. then, they immediately followed jian wushuang and left bai lipeng lying there half dead.
â¦
sword star, in the lofty palace.
âwhat happened during the time i wasnât here?â jian wushuang sat on the throne overlooking at qiu yue and the rest of the people.
qiu yue knelt down, âmister, qiu yue didnât manage sword star well. if mister is angry, blame qiu yue alone.â
âi do not want to reprimand you. i just want to know what happened.â jian wushuang creased his eyebrows, âtell me.â
