Chapter 124 Respect them, they are true men!
In the blink of an eye, five cultivators arrived on their swords and surrounded Gao Huohuo from all sides.
The guy who had started the provocation earlier now looked down at Gao Huohuo with a cold smile on his lips and shouted:
"Hmph, run away! Why aren't you running now? You think you're so tough, huh?"
Gao Huohuo seemed not to hear the sarcasm, and simply raised his hand slowly, gently tapping his fingers.
His eyes were full of disapproval, and he spoke leisurely:
"I stopped to wait for the dog because I was afraid it wouldn't be able to catch up with its owner. How thoughtful!"
The people around him who heard this were all disdainful:
At this critical moment of life and death, why are you still putting on airs?
She's all alone; does she really think she can take on all five of them by herself?
The leader, unable to contain his greed, shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Brothers, let's go! She's definitely got some valuable treasure on her; whoever gets it keeps it!"
These words were like igniting a powder keg.
The five men's eyes instantly turned red, each one afraid of falling behind and being scrambled by others to divide up the imagined enormous treasure.
In an instant, the five people transformed into five gusts of wind, carrying fierce sword energy, and their spiritual swords stabbed towards Gao Huohuo's vital points.
Gao Huohuo remained calm and composed, defusing the onslaught one by one.
She seemed to be handling things with ease, and would deliberately reveal some flaws from time to time, making the five people think they had an opportunity to take advantage of her.
Just as they were about to capture her alive, she dodged away in a flash at the last moment.
This went on several times, leaving the five people completely disoriented, and they couldn't help but start to wonder:
This woman was once renowned for breaking a spirit sword with a single punch, so why does she look so ordinary today, as if her strength has been greatly diminished?
But every time I'm so close to catching her, I always fall just short. What's the reason for this?
Gao Huohuo glanced coldly at the group, thinking to himself: Alright, the puppet talismans are all properly affixed, I won't waste any more time on you bunch of idiots.
Before leaving, she didn't forget to utter a harsh remark:
"Remember this well, my name is Bai Qiang. From now on, when you see me, bow and greet me respectfully."
After saying that, she lightly touched the sword with her toes and rode away on the wind.
The five men wanted to give chase, but as soon as they lifted their feet, they were shocked to find themselves stiff and unable to move. They could only watch helplessly as Gao Huohuo disappeared into the distance.
Just then, the Holy Maiden Chen Wanzhen arrived in a grand procession with her subordinates, and immediately saw the five people standing stiffly in place.
Chen Wanzhen frowned slightly, stepped forward, and asked in a cold voice:
"Where is she? Didn't you say you saw that female cultivator from before?"
The five people were controlled by the puppet talisman and could not even move a finger, let alone speak.
As everyone was wondering, a strange scene unfolded:
The person who had been most enthusiastic in mocking Gao Huohuo suddenly stepped forward without warning, walked straight towards Chen Wanzhen, and slowly extended a hand.
Everyone present, including Chen Wanzhen herself, subconsciously assumed that he was going to point out the whereabouts of the female cultivator to the Holy Maiden, so they were completely unprepared.
Who could have predicted that in the next instant, a crisp "smack" would be heard, and the person would slap Chen Wanzhen hard across her delicate cheek.
After slapping him, the man's face was filled with undisguised terror, as if he himself could not believe what he had just done.
But the words that came out of his mouth were extremely arrogant:
"So what if you're a saint? All you do is order us around all day. What gives you the right?"
"Isn't it just because your Glazed Tile School is a top-tier sect?"
The remaining four were so frightened that their hearts almost stopped, and they secretly rejoiced that it wasn't them who had stepped forward at this moment.
Otherwise, given the saintess's vengeful nature, by this time next year, the grass on her own grave would probably be three feet tall.
However, before they could even catch their breath, two more people stepped out.
Fortunately, what these two said was relatively normal. One of them looked anxious and advised the troublemaking "Fellow Daoist Zhang":
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, what are you doing? We all voluntarily followed the Holy Maiden, how can you be so rebellious?"
Another person quickly chimed in, "That's right, that's right. The Holy Maiden is of incomparably noble status. How could you possibly harm her at will?"
As he spoke, the man pretended to be attentive, taking out a pill from his storage bag and making a gesture as if to hand it to Chen Zhenwan.
But who could have imagined that another unexpected event would occur!
With a flick of his wrist, the man fed the pill directly into his own mouth.
Taking advantage of Chen Wanzhen's surprise and unpreparedness, he suddenly struck out with his palm, sending the Holy Maiden flying several feet away.
At the same time, he was shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Hmph, for so many years, you've been bullying us because of your status. We've all had enough. Today, we should all go up together and teach her a lesson!"
Seeing this, the remaining three seemed to be infected by the crazy atmosphere and echoed in unison:
"That's right! If it weren't for the reputation of the Glazed Tile School, who would know who you, Chen Wanzhen, are?"
To abuse one's authority is utterly shameless!
From now on, everyone, don't let her boss you around anymore!
After saying that, the five of them seemed to have made a pact and began to surround Chen Wanzhen step by step.
The whole scene looked like they were trying to trap her in the middle and interrogate her.
The cultivators who had come with them were all dumbfounded and looked at each other in disbelief.
I'm filled with confusion and bewilderment: What on earth is going on here?
Weren't they here to arrest heretical cultivators? How come they've turned into judging the Holy Maiden?
Could it be that the Glazed Tile School has been secretly besieged by other sects? How come we haven't received any news about it?
Looking at these five men, they appear terrified and shaken, yet their actions and words reveal them to be true "men."
At least everyone thought so in their hearts, but no one dared to say it out loud like they did.
Everyone felt a deep respect for these five men: they were true heroes!
At the same time, he secretly thought: Don't worry, if these five people are unfortunately killed by the Holy Maiden later, I will at least collect their bodies.
Then look at Chen Wanzhen, who was sent flying by a palm strike. At this moment, she no longer cares about maintaining her usual dignified and noble image.
With her eyebrows raised and her almond eyes wide open, she angrily drew her gleaming spirit sword with a "whoosh."
Gritting his teeth, he was about to slash at the five "insubordinate" guys opposite him.
Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed, and the five people all knelt down with a thud, their faces filled with fear and pleading.
The leader's voice trembled, and he cried out:
"Holy Maiden, spare us! We are truly innocent; we were forced into this by that evil cultivator."
She was extremely ruthless and secretly poisoned the five of us with an incurable poison.
We had absolutely no other choice; we only gave in to her this time out of desperation!
After saying this, the group kowtowed frantically, one after another, as if they were pounding garlic.
His forehead hit the ground with a dull thud, but he looked genuinely remorseful and filled with regret.
They kowtowed, tears streaming down their faces, repeatedly begging for mercy:
"Holy Maiden, you have always been compassionate and magnanimous. Please have mercy on us and spare us this time!"
We know our sins are grave and are willing to accept any punishment.
Even if you were to beat or punish us yourself right now, as long as you spare our lives, we would be eternally grateful!
This sudden turn of events left Chen Wanzhen feeling as if she had a fishbone stuck in her throat, and all her anger was forced back down.
She looked up and around, only to see that the eyes of many cultivators were focused on her.
He thought to himself: If I rashly kill these five people in this situation, the reputation of the Glazed Tile School will surely be tarnished and damaged because of my momentary impulsiveness.
But if she didn't kill these people, it would be impossible to quell the hatred in her heart!
