Chapter 144 - Entering the Hundred Bones Mountain

The news of their commander being fired quickly spread outside Province Pinghai city. On the streets and alleys, countless people were discussing.

”Have you heard? The commander of the three troops, Li Tiexiong, has been fired?! ”

”I heard that it's because Li Tiexiong went to the province to complain to the Marquis and asked the Marquis to punish Xiao Yu severely. Yet Master Hou dismissed him on the spot! ”

”It can't be? Just because he complained to the Marquis in front of Xiao Yu that he was fired? This is the commander of the three armies who has rendered meritorious services to the House of the Marquis of the province, Li Tiexiong?! ”

”In the future, you must never provoke the god of pests like Xiao Yu. Whoever offends him will not have a good ending! ”

”…”

Xiao Yu's name once again spread throughout the orthodox temple.

Everyone seemed to understand an unwritten reasoning — — Offending Xiao Yu would not end well. Even the commander of the three armies, Li Tiexiong, had been stripped of his position. Never provoke Xiao Yu in the future.

White Jade Villa.

At courtyard 101.

Just as he finished his breakfast, Xiao Ziyu packed up his tableware. After that, Xiao Yu personally helped Xiao Ziyu consume the Ring-Bundle Pill.

”Sis, how have you been these past few days?” Xiao Yu said with an expression of concern.

Xiao Ziyu smiled, ”I feel much better now.”

Xiao Yu said, ”Cheng Yu said that as long as you continue to take the Ringbelt Pill, the toxin in your leg injury will not quickly spread. It will be able to last for more than half a year. Half a year later, I will enter the imperial city. We will definitely find the Saint Realm expert to help big sister lose her power, and heal her legs! ”

Xiao Ziyu nodded, ”Alright, I believe in you, Xiao Yu. You will definitely do it. Whether I can stand up will depend on you. ”

Little Yu smiled.

At this time, Cheng Yu casually walked in.

Disregarding Xiao Tian's obstruction, she directly entered the hall: ”Young Master Xiao, don't worry. The pellets that I, Cheng Yu, have refined, don't dare to say that they are better than those of that old fellow Gu Ya, but at least they aren't inferior in any way. Through my continuous improvement, the effects of the Ring-Bundle Pill became better and better. Your sister's legs are already slowing down. ”

Xiao Yu heaved a sigh of relief: ”Thank you, Sir Cheng Yu.”

Cheng Yu opened the fan with a ”puchi”, and said with a carefree smile: ”This is not the first time we've met, and our friendship is quite deep, so there's no need to thank me anymore.”

Xiao Yu laughed indifferently, although Cheng Yu was an outstanding and free man, he was very loyal. It made Xiao Yu feel very warm in his heart.

Cheng Yu sat down, poured himself a cup of water and drank it while saying, ”Do you know what is the most sensational thing in Province Pinghai City right now?”

At this time, Xiao Tian walked over while eating her candied flakes, ”What is it?”

Cheng Yu looked at Xiao Tian, and then said: ”The General of the three armies, Li Tiexiong, has been stripped of his position by the Marquis, and has approved to return to his homeland, to live through the years!”

Xiao Tian took a bite of the candied flakes, ”Weren't Li Tiexiong valiant and spirited when he came here before? Why was he suddenly fired? It seems like he hasn't made any big mistakes recently? ”

Cheng Yu said: ”It's a pity that he offended Xiao Yu. He had even personally brought three generals to the provincial marquis to denounce Xiao Yu's wrongdoings. He hoped that the marquis would personally suppress Xiao Yu and publicly punish him. In the end, he was fired before he could even meet the marquis. Hey! This is so satisfying. ”

Xiao Tian said: ”Looks like Master Hou is a man who understands that our brother Xiao Yu cannot be offended!”

Cheng Yu sighed: ”Li Tiexiong is too proud and merits too much, and actually brought three generals to the hall to ask the Marquis to punish Xiao Yu severely. There was a possibility of a demonstration. The marquis was a brilliant genius, he naturally would deal with him. Xiao Yu, your reputation can be said to be at the peak of the day as it spread throughout Province Pinghai City. ”

Xiao Yu laughed bitterly: ”But I don't want to become famous, I have a lot of things to do.”

Cheng Yu said: ”You must be blessed to not know your fortune. In order to become famous, many geniuses in the Province Pinghai had gone all out to attract the attention of important figures. Yet you said you didn't want to become famous. ”

Xiao Yu rubbed his nose, speechless.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Xiao Tian opened the door.

Li Tiexiong, dressed in plain clothes and barefooted, was standing at the entrance with a large bundle of firewood on his back.

Li Xiong also wore plain clothes. Carrying the thorns on his back, he followed barefooted.

The two of them entered the door and knelt on the ground with a thump.

Li Tiexiong cried bitterly: ”Young Master Xiao, I, Li Tiexiong, have done many things wrong with you before. Young Master, please don't bother with me! ”

With that said, Li Tiexiong kowtowed nine times to Li Xiong.

Then take one step forward, continue three kowtows and nine kowtows, and then keep one step forward

One step at a time, braving the dense rain, he followed the stone steps from the entrance and kneeled down all the way to the entrance of the hall.

Xiao Yu sat on the chair, his gaze cold. ”Li Tiexiong, I have never bothered with you before. The person who kicked you out is the Marquis of Ping Hai. If you want to beg for forgiveness, you should go to the Marquis of Ping Hai's place and ask for forgiveness. You don't have to come here. ”

Li Xiong gritted his teeth and said, ”My father joined the army his whole life and fought for half his life. He made outstanding military merits for the provincial marquis, but was expelled from his post by the marquis because he offended Young Master Xiao. Young Master Xiao, please head to the provincial general's mansion and inform the Marquis that you have reinstated my father's position of commander! ”

Li Tiexiong said: ”I humbly request that Young Master Xiao speak up for me in front of Master Hou. If I am able to restore it, I will never forget the kindness that you have shown me in this life. In the future, if Young Master needs it, I will do it no matter what! ”

When Li Tiexiong went back, he saw the surging public sentiment coming from all over the streets and alleys. He saw the duke's decisiveness!

He knew, the only person who could save him now was Xiao Yu!

If Xiao Yu came out to invite him on his behalf, the marquis might give Xiao Yu face and give him a chance to recover.

He was still in his prime, so he really didn't want to part from his high position and live the rest of his life.

Xiao Tian said: ”If I had known earlier, why would I have done what I did before? When you came and smashed my courtyard's gate, and even said that you wanted to punish Big Brother Xiao Yu, did you forget about all these? ”

Li Tiexiong clenched his teeth. ”This is all because of my reckless ignorance and arrogance. Young Master, on the account of my age, please step forward and avenge me! ”

The two continuously kowtowed.

Everyone looked at Xiao Yu, quietly waiting for his reply.

Xiao Yu opened a teacup, filled a cup of tea, and then finished it in one gulp. You are not worthy enough for me to plead! ”

Xiao Yu stood up and waved: ”You may leave, there is no need to appear here again!”

With that said, Xiao Yu pushed his wheelchair and entered the room with Xiao Ziyu.

”Bang!”

The room door closed.

What closed wasn't just a door, but the hope of Li Tiexiong's entire life!

Li Tiexiong closed his eyes, his face was in pain and his body trembling.

He knew that he was finished.

Completely finished.

Cheng Yu got up and shook his head: ”Life is like a great gamble. If you lose, you lose.

”Xiao Tian, I'll bring you to buy a candied fruit.” Cheng Yu laughed. Walking out of the door.

”Alright, Big Brother Cheng Yu, you are really a good person. I really like you more and more. ” Xiao Tian jumped in joy as he followed along. The two of them left the door and disappeared while talking and laughing.
