"Come, come, come. We'll let you eat if you bark!"
A group of thugs were currently laughing at a beggar, and one of them even took out a drumstick to wave it in front of him.
If anyone had looked closely, they would recognise that the beggar was Bai Ri, the person that Qin Feng had missed dearly.
At this moment---
Bai Ri looked at the drumstick waving before him in a daze as he remembered the event that happened about a month ago, after the end of the Death Elimination Tournament.
In the Bai family estate.
A group of elders sat within the ancestral hall, their expressions cold. They were all senior members of the Bai family, each wielding considerable authority in the Bai family, and their gaze was all focused on Bai Ri, whose eyes appeared lifeless.
He had thought that he would receive the warmth and care of his clan upon his return, but he never expected them to get annoyed at the fact that he had survived the Death Elimination Tournament and the immense shame that he had brought his family. Because of him, the Bai family had become a laughingstock in the entire Yin Yue Imperial Dynasty.
"Bai Ri, considering the great shame that you have brought upon the Bai family, we, the elders, have decided to enforce our family rules. To cripple your cultivation and banish you from the Bai family!"
"What?!"
Bai Ri was stunned, unable to believe his ears.
He was clearly the victim in all of this, but not only did his family not comfort him, they were trying to deal yet another blow to him. Without his cultivation, how could he possibly survive in Huang Gu?
However, no one cared about Bai Ri's feelings. At that moment, several bulky men stepped forward and pressed him against the ground.
"No, don't do it......"
Bai Ri struggled with all his might, his expression filled with horror. He didn't want to become a cripple that lost his cultivation.
"Ah......"
However, Bai Ri wasn't able to avoid his fate.
A miserable scream rang from his throat.
His Dantian was shattered with a punch, causing his spiritual power to start leaking out. His aura almost instantly dropped to zero, leaving his body unable to summon an ounce of strength.
Ping!!
Bai Ri was thrown out of the Bai family heartlessly, and he couldn't even bring himself to stand up.
"Isn't that Bai Ri from the Bai family?!"
"The Bai family is too ruthless, they crippled his cultivation and banished him!"
"They can't be blamed for this, no other clan would accept such humiliation."
"The Bai family made the right decision. By sacrificing him alone, they could preserve the reputation of their entire family."
"What a joke! They did sacrifice him, but do you seriously think that they'll be able to preserve their reputation?!"
".........."
The passersby all pointed at Bai Ri as they discussed among themselves. Their actions further wounding Bai Ri's heart.
He couldn't accept this!
He didn't want to be a cripple!
Everything that the Bai family had done to him today, he vowed to return it multiple times over!
No matter how optimistic he was, the reality was ultimately cruel. In the following days, Bai Ri lived like a beggar, curling up like a dog in a small alleyway and giving up his pride for scraps of food.
"I want to survive, I must survive!"
Bai Ri repeated it to himself over and over, only by surviving did he have hope.
"Bark, bark......"
Bai Ri suppressed his shame as he barked on the floor.
"Hahaha, he actually barked! The prodigy of the Bai family actually barked......" As if it was hilarious, the laughter of the thugs resounded in the little alleyway.
"Is it very funny?"
A cold voice rang out in the alleyway as Qin Feng's figure materialised.
On his shoulder was Whitey, who was gnawing on a carrot, and behind him were Qian Jun, Wan Ma, and the Everchanging Demon King, who was tortured to the brink of mental collapse by the Slave Seal.
The current Everchanging Demon King stood behind Qin Feng carefully, prickling up his ears in fear of missing even one of his commands, which would lead to yet another terrible experience for him.
"Qin Feng!"
Bai Ri raised his head to regard Qin Feng with a shocked expression. He clearly did not expect Qin Feng to appear here.
He had complicated feelings toward Qin Feng, the culprit who had caused his current predicament. However, the people that had harmed him the most were still Fang Chang and his own Bai family.
"You're Qin Feng? The third saint Qin Feng?!"
The thugs were visibly stunned before they started to scrutinize Qin Feng.
They might not know who the third saint of the Yin Yue Imperial Dynasty was, but they had definitely heard of Qin Feng's shameless actions and the shameless white rabbit that he had raised.
Qin Feng responded indifferently, "Revealing such expressions upon seeing me, have you all not heard of the Confucius saying, 'Do not feel ashamed to consult those beneath you'?!"
"What does that mean!?"
The Everchanging Demon King was confused as he had truly not heard of this saying before.
Wan Ma softly explained, "The translation is, how could they not feel ashamed for asking Boss questions, and that they can go down (hell) to ask their questions."
"I got it, hehehehe, it's time to die, you ants!"
The Everchanging Demon King acted over eagerly, transforming into a swarm of bats and lunging toward the thugs.
"No, don't come over here!"
The thugs screamed in horror, but they were swiftly swept away by the bats.
"I was still late after all!"
Qin Feng walked toward Bai Ri, squatting down next to him, paying no heed to the fact that his cultivation was crippled.
According to his decade of experience as a bookworm, Bai Ri's fate-changing plot had started. If he wanted to hold his head up high and become an emperor, he undoubtedly had to endure terrible hardships.
With a wave of his arm, he took out the dragon horn bow from his spatial storage.
Created by Di Xiu, one of the four great mavens of Huang Gu, the bow emanated a beautiful radiance. By pulling the bowstring that was made from the dragon's tendons, the user could create formless energy arrows.
Aside from that, it came with twenty real arrows with tips made from dragon claws, giving it an incredible armour-piercing ability.
"This is......"
A small spark started to appear in Bai Ri's eyes.
As an expert archer, he could naturally tell that this weapon was impressive.
However, aware of the fact that he was nothing more than a cripple now, the light that had barely shone in his eyes immediately faded away.
Qin Feng instantly immersed himself in his acting, a mixture of pity, sorrow, and apologeticness appearing in his gaze as he spoke, "This dragon horn bow is something that I had created just for you, but I never expected that during the month that I was focused on making this bow, you would have suffered through so many hardships. Do not worry, I will definitely help you recover your Dantian no matter how hard it is, and I will definitely help you rise up again. I won't let a single person who had bullied you off."
"Ah, this?!"
Qian Jun and Wan Ma looked at each other in confusion. They didn't understand what bullshit Qin Feng was up to now.
Bai Ri was clearly crippled now, but not only was their boss gifting him the dragon horn bow, he even promised to help him recover his Dantian and avenge him. No matter how they looked at it, this was undoubtedly an unprofitable deal.
Or....was he trying to learn from Fang Chang and do something unspeakable to Bai Ri?!
"For me......"
Bai Ri looked at the gentle gaze in Qin Feng's eyes, and he couldn't take it anymore.
He didn't understand what the fuck Qin Feng was up to, but one thing was certain, Qin Feng's appearance at his darkest times was undoubtedly like a ray of light that had shone into his dark world.
At this moment.
Their gazes met, and Bai Ri, who held no resentment toward Qin Feng, was genuinely moved, albeit strangely.
He believed that Qin Feng was a true man, far better than Fang Chang, who simply ran away after the deed was done.
"En?!"
Whitey looked at the two of them, strangely feeling as though some kind of music should be playing at this moment.
You are a beam of light falling in my world
Rush with haste towards me, every living being grows
The night sky is slowly lit up
The halo of light falls on your hand
The evening breeze blows to open the new chapter of our story
