”It's Senior Brother w.a.n.g!” Xia Liuhui said when he got a clear look at who the newcomer was.

Xiang Shaoyun saw who the newcomer was as well. The newcomer was none other than w.a.n.g Zhenchuan whom he had once helped become Zi Changhe's disciple.

”Junior Brother Xia, are you fine?” w.a.n.g Zhenchuan asked when he arrived. All his attention was on Xia Liuhui, so he did not even notice Xiang Shaoyun. In any case, Xiang Shaoyun had changed a lot over the past year, and his temperament was entirely different now. Thus, it was understandable that w.a.n.g Zhenchuan couldn't recognize Xiang Shaoyun right away.

”Look at how swollen my face is. Do I look fine?” said Xia Liuhui while pointing at his fully wrapped face.

”d.a.m.n it! This must be the work of Ye Lingyun and his lackeys, right? I'll take revenge for you later. He thinks he can bully everyone just because his cousin is an inner disciple?” w.a.n.g Zhenchuan said furiously.

w.a.n.g Zhenchuan was already a peak ninth-stage Astral Realm cultivator. Transformation Realm was not far away. He had an ordinary apt.i.tude, but he made it up by being insanely hard-working. Breaking through several stages in a row in a year and half was a pretty decent accomplishment. Of course, part of that was also due to the care Zi Changhe had given him.

”Senior Brother w.a.n.g, did you not hear that Ye Lingyun was nearly crippled when you were on your way here?” Xia Liuhui asked. He then pointed at the person beside him and said, ”Look who's here.”

Finally, w.a.n.g Zhenchuan's gaze landed on Xiang Shaoyun. His face was immediately filled with emotion as he quickly greeted deferentially, ”Greetings, Martial Uncle Xiang.”

”Haha, my martial nephew, it has been a while. Looks like you have been doing well,” said Xiang Shaoyun with a hearty laugh. Back then, he a.s.sumed the ident.i.ty of Zi Changhe's junior apprentice brother. With w.a.n.g Zhenchuan being accepted as Zi Changhe's disciple, he naturally became Xiang Shaoyun's martial nephew.

”Everyone thought you were...never mind that. Master will be very happy to know this, the same goes to Elder Zhen Peng as well!” said w.a.n.g Zhenchuan happily. He was a person of few words, but he was too excited to see Xiang Shaoyun and couldn't stop talking.

He still remembered the help Xiang Shaoyun had given him in the past. Xiang Shaoyun had recommended him to become Zi Changhe's disciple and had even given him a portion of the Earth Star Spring liquid. Those two favors were enough to make him stay grateful to Xiang Shaoyun.

”Alright, let's find a place we can chat over a drink,” said Xiang Shaoyun, who was also in a fabulous mood.

”Sure, let's go to the restaurant,” said Xia Liuhui.

Thus, the three headed to a restaurant in the outer pavilion.

...

Within a certain courtyard in the inner pavilion, a good-looking woman had just received news that caused her to be furious. She said, ”Audacious! That person dares to hit him even after knowing he is the cousin of me, w.a.n.g Jiaohua? That person is completely looking down on me!”

Beside the woman was a young man. He had his arm gently wrapped around the woman's waist as he asked, ”Jiaohua, what happened to make you so angry?”

”A blind fool has injured my cousin. I need payback for it,” answered the woman.

”Some outer disciples? I'll come as well and help cripple all of them for you,” said the young man.

”Sure, come with me then. We will show them how insignificant non inner disciples are,” declared the woman dauntlessly. And thus, the pair rushed out of the inner pavilion.
