Chapter 15 (1/2)
Bending The Knee
When Li Chengfeng's father, Li Chun, saw that his wife and son were humiliated, he couldn't help but leap up suddenly With dishevelled hair and widened eyes, he roared, “You blind bstard, my son is…”
Before he could finish, Mada Master to the backyard!”
Li Chun already had five surly servants standing behind so upon hearing the order, they leapt to action Two grabbed his ars, one stuffed a towel in hisa statue, they quickly carried the struggling and shouting Li Chun out of the hall
This would've been blasphemy in other families A as not expected to disrespect her husband, as of higher status like that, she could be chased out
But in the Li fa was quite accustomed to it
Madaed, “Master, you're a man of virtue from the Spiritual Mountain Sect Please do not take that to heart, for o I beg you not to take a madman's words personally”
Sun Boren sa her face was dripping with blood and yet she dared not wipe it away so he sneered and turned aithout a word
Madam Xie said, “If you pick our Li farateful and definitely repay you tremendously!”
Sun Boren suddenly clapped when he heard her “Ah, Master Lingyun! I reyun knows you Then you're not really an outsider, are you?”
Madahted to hear this Her servant Green Bead by her side passed her a towel discreetly, which was taken equally discreetly She wiped her face quickly and then hid it in her sleeve as she said cautiously, “Our Li fa this time, and an extra five hundred for your troubles…”
Sun Boren was now giving trouble to the Li fa He had been robbed by some southern thieves who came all the way to the north to throw hier Naturally, it was bad luck for the Li family
Cheng'an City was not huge but any substantial family was a loyal supporter of the sect Many of thewithin the Spiritual Mountain Sect While Sun Boren was a big shot below the mountain, once on the mountain, he was just a low-ranked member He would not dare cause too much trouble either If any family here decided to have a conversation with their children cultivating in thespread, it would be bad news for him
The Li fa roots in the sect so naturally, he could bully them
It was a coincidence that Li Chengfeng hadprivately He'd spent so ot into trouble! Did karma really exist?
Sun Boren furrowed his brohen he heard that the offering was only five thousand silver pieces and his extra portion was only five hundred Displeased, he said, “Five thousand? Hah! You seears!”
When he finished, he flung his sleeve, then got up to leave
Madam Xie panicked and yelled, “Wait, Master!”
“Hmm?” He turned around and looked down at her
Madaritted her teeth “To tell the truth, the Li family can offer two thousand silver pieces more!”
When she finished, Green Bead couldn't help but gasp lightly “Madam, two thousand silver is…”
Mada down as she teared up She clutched her handkerchief tightly
Li Chengfeng also knew that two thousand silver pieces were the last of the one, they would either have to beg in the streets next !
Yet, Sun Boren merely huffed coldly, then turned to leave
Madam Xie, the wo, and had the respect of all her servants, suddenly lost her wits and grabbed the tail of Sun Boren's long robes She begged pitifully, “Master, that's already all the money our Li family has!”
