Chapter 2983: True Compassion
fell, both An Daoyuan and Situ Changkong's expressions changed drastically. They jumped up from their chairs in an instant.As the leader of both the martial world and Xuanyuan Pavilion, they couldn't...The first rays of sunlight pierced through the dense forest, bathing the entire Shennongjia in a brilliant glow the next morning.
Li Shuo is now hanging from a tree, with none of the swagger he once had as the young master of the Li family. He looks utterly pitiful.
Both arms were hanging high, swollen and red. His face was covered in bites, bruised purple and green.
If you don't look closely, you wouldn't be able to tell what it originally was.
His body was also covered in mosquito bites, even in that special place, it seemed to have been bitten hard by some kind of insect.
It used to be small and dainty, but now it appears quite substantial in size.
Li Shuo's two eyes were swollen shut, though he tried his best to open them wide, there was only a slit.
At this moment, through that crack, one can see his eyes filled with despair.
As the eldest son of the Li family, when had he ever suffered such humiliation and pain
He was filled with rage, wanting to kill, but was powerless to do so.
And at that very moment, the four bodyguards under the tree shuddered and vanished in confusion, their eyes regaining the human color they should have.
The power of the soul-stealing bell also has a limit, and at this time it has lost control over the four people.
The middle-aged man glanced around in confusion, then looked up and saw Li Shu lying on the tree. He couldn't help but jump in fright.
"Who are you"
Now he had completely lost all memory of last night and had no idea what he had done.
Li Shuo was almost driven mad by anger. If he could, he would have ripped this guy to shreds.
"You **ing hung me from a tree and then asked who I am!"
You took my Li family's money and dare to lay your hands on me You just wait, the Li family will not let you off…
Li Shu's voice was hoarse, a furious roar.
Only then did a few people come to their senses, and the person hanging before them was actually the young master.
They hurriedly cut the rope and let Li Shuo down. They took out the antidote ointment they carried with them and applied it to his body.
"Master, are you alright"
A middle-aged man frantically poured his true energy into Li Shuo's body, helping him to ease muscle tension and improve blood circulation, relieving the injuries on both of his arms.
"For God's sake, I'm in this state and you say it's nothing Can't you see"
Li Shuo let out another furious roar, cursing the four people to the heavens.
The four bodyguards, knowing they were in the wrong, hung their heads low and dared not speak a word.
Although they couldn't quite remember what had happened, they had a vague idea. It seemed the young master had hanged himself.
Li Shu had scolded them enough, changed into a new set of clothes, and glared angrily at the four people in front of him.
“I told you to go catch that little bastard named Ye, and you come back and hang me up in a tree! What the hell are you trying to do”
"Master, please calm your anger. It was our carelessness that fell for that little scoundrel's trap..."
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and recounted the events, finally saying, "He was holding a small bell. He shook it, and then we knew nothing."
Li Shuo, though a wastrel, was not foolish. Coming from a prominent family, he was well-informed and had a wide range of experience.
He immediately realized the key to the problem was definitely that little bell.
"Damn, this guy has a lot of good stuff!"
Another bodyguard beside him said, "Master, don't get angry. I'll bring that kid here right now and you can do whatever you want with him."
"Bull**, you stand there for me!"
Li Shuo hurriedly called him back, but he still didn't figure out what that little bell was.
If these bodyguards were to be controlled by someone else, who knows what they might do to us.
That bodyguard immediately stopped and stood there obediently.
The middle-aged bodyguard said awkwardly, “Young master, what should we do now”
Li Shu stood up and moved his aching limbs. After last night's events, he was truly frightened and dared not directly seek trouble anymore.
"Don't provoke them for now. Let's go to the Sky Pit together. You'll need me there, otherwise they won't be able to get in."
He now dares not directly confront Ye Bufan, he can only use the Li family's influence to get his field back.
"Yes, Master!"
Four people nodded in agreement, as long as the young master didn't cause them trouble.
Ye Bufan and others had just finished breakfast and were about to leave when Li Shuo walked over with four people.
Seeing the appearance of several people, Jiang Fangzhou immediately laughed so hard that his shoulders shook and he thumped his chest and thighs.
"Haha, who is this How did you get like this You look so handsome."
Hu Yaya was also giggling uncontrollably, striding towards him.
"Young master, are you a believer in Buddha Or have you come to this forest to feed the insects"
"Surely this is a compassionate heart, bound to become a Buddha or a sage in the future..."
Yiluoxi glanced at the four bodyguards beside her and joined in the mockery.
"I say, how are you four doing as bodyguards Your master is bitten like this, and you lot haven't done a thing. Don't you want to quit"
"Um..."
The four bodyguards flushed red, they didn't dare say a word about this.
Li Shuo was ridiculed again and again, still in front of Ouyang Jing. This made him so angry that he felt like his lungs would explode.
"What's so amazing Let me tell you, it wouldn't even be possible to go see the Tiankeng without me! None of you could get in without me!"
Ye Bufan glanced at him, a playful smile curling his lips.
"Well now, Li Shao is so confident"
Of course!
Li Shuo finally found a trace of confidence from the embarrassment, "Let me tell you, the Tiankeng now has been completely controlled by the country's special department, Xuan Yuan Pavilion, and my uncle is just the person in charge of Xuan Yuan Pavilion."
"Follow me or you won't get in. None of you will be allowed past without my permission."
"Is that so"
Ye Bufan smiled again, "Then I'd like to see how much face Li Shao really has."
Li Shuo felt sarcasm in his smile, becoming increasingly angry.
"Don't get too cocky, you'll all be begging me then."
After that, he stomped off in a huff, his four bodyguards scrambling after him.
The remaining distance was much shorter than before. As they journeyed, they arrived near the sky pit as dusk approached.
It was about ten miles from the center when they came upon a road blocked by soldiers armed to the teeth.
The head soldier pointed to a sign beside him, "Halt! This is restricted area, no visitors allowed!"
Yè Bùfán said, "We want to go inside and take a look at the sky pit."
The squad leader said gruffly, "No, no one can enter without a pass."
Before Ye Bufan could say anything, Li Shuo came over eagerly, with a smug look on his face.
"See I told you so, none of you get in without my say-so."
After finishing his words, he turned to look at the soldiers in front of him, his chin raised high. “I am a member of the Li family, and Li Fei is my second uncle.”
Hearing that it was the Li family, the soldier's expression changed, he took out a walkie-talkie and said a few words into it.
Time was short, a hearty laugh sounded: "Is it Shao'er"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a tall middle-aged man walked over from a tent in the distant camp.This robe is going with me."He was chattering away, but the few people from the Cold Sword Immortal Sect were staring wide-eyed with mouths agape, their faces filled with shock. They looked like they...
