Everyone watched as Wulingzhu slowly awakened from her unconscious state. She shook her head and looked around.
“Father…” Wulingzhu’s voice was soft and weak. “What… what happened to me?”
“Lingzhu, I was about to ask you the same thing,” Wuxuan said urgently. “What did that little scoundrel Tang Tianyou do to you?”
Wulingzhu, still dazed, replied, “I was planning to take a bath, but as soon as I got everything ready, I suddenly felt weak all over. And then…” Her eyes widened in horror as she seemed to recall something. “And then Tang Tianyou burst in, and he… he…”
At this point, Wuxuan’s face turned ugly, and he glared at Tang Tianyou with a fierce look. “Tang Tianyou, you little scoundrel! I’ll beat you to death!”
“Uncle Wuxuan, don’t be angry. I’ll help you punish this scoundrel!” Wu Teng quickly strode over to Tang Tianyou and grabbed him by the collar. Tang Tianyou, who had been slapped by Master Wuxuan, was still dazed and bleeding from his nose and mouth. He felt the world spinning around him, but as he looked at the menacing Wu Teng, the pitiful Wulingzhu, the furious Masters Wuxuan and Wu Ao, and the disappointed Master Lu Entropy, he finally understood what had happened. He had been framed! He had been framed by Wu Teng and Wulingzhu working together.
But why? He was alone in the world, with only Master Lu Entropy showing him any kindness. Wu Teng and Wulingzhu both had higher status than him. Why would they frame him?
At that moment, Master Lu Entropy sighed, “Tianyou, I had planned to promote you from a nominal disciple to my personal disciple. How could you do such a foolish thing?” Hearing this, Tang Tianyou finally understood everything. Originally, he, Wu Teng, and Wulingzhu were all nominal disciples of Master Lu Entropy. Master Lu Entropy had said he would choose one of them to become his personal disciple and teach him all his pill-refining skills. Now it made sense. Wulingzhu and Wu Teng must have known about this, and they probably framed him…
How ridiculous.
He, Tang Tianyou, had lost his parents at a young age and had no one to rely on. He had been fortunate enough to enter Qingyun Pavilion and become a common pill refiner. But now…
No matter what he said, no one would believe him. Who would be willing to listen to him?
“It wasn’t… it wasn’t me…” *Bam*! Before he could finish his sentence, Wu Teng threw a punch.
“*Cough*…” Tang Tianyou spat out a mouthful of blood. Wu Teng cursed, “You ungrateful wretch! Lingzhu has always been kind to you, and you dare to take advantage of her?” Punch after punch, Wu Teng continued to strike. Tang Tianyou felt his consciousness fading.
The world was so unfair. Was he, Tang Tianyou, who had no one to rely on, destined to suffer such injustice?
At that very moment, three figures arrived outside the courtyard. Master Lu Xun, Ye Wushuang, and Qing Shihua hurried to the scene with anxious expressions. Ye Wushuang looked around the courtyard and raised an eyebrow. “Where is he?”
“H-he…” Master Lu Xun was stunned, unable to speak for a moment as he took in the scene before him. Qing Shihua was also left speechless, murmuring, “Tang Tianyou…”
Ye Wushuang’s gaze fell on the young man being beaten by Wu Teng. In that instant, her expression froze and her body trembled slightly. It was too similar! The young man before her looked just like the young Tang Wenchuan when Ye Wentian had first met him five hundred years ago. Even though several generations had passed, Tang Tianyou really did resemble his ancestor Tang Wenchuan.
But the next moment, seeing Tang Tianyou being beaten, Ye Wushuang’s face darkened. Qing Shihua’s expression also changed. She had heard her sister talk about many things related to Ye Wushuang. This person cared deeply for those close to him, and anyone who dared to harm them would be dealt with severely!
When she had seen her sister being bullied, even Qing Shiyu had been frightened by the fierce measures Ye Wushuang had taken. Ye Wushuang had come to see Tang Tianyou in such a hurry and had asked about him more than once. Although Qing Shihua did not know the exact relationship between Ye Wushuang and Tang Tianyou, it was clear that Ye Wushuang cared about him very much.
“Master Ye, don’t rush…” But before Qing Shihua could finish her sentence, Ye Wushuang had already charged forward…
