Everyone watched as Wulingzhu slowly awoke from her stupor, shaking her head and looking around.
“Father…”
Her voice was soft and weak. “What… happened to me?”
“Lingzhu, I was about to ask you the same thing,” Master Wuxuan said anxiously. “What did that little scoundrel Tang Tianyou do to you?”
Wulingzhu, still in a daze, said, “I was about to bathe, but as soon as I got ready, I felt weak all over, and then…”
It seemed like she remembered something. Her eyes widened in terror. “And then Tang Tianyou burst in, and he was going to… going to…”
At this point, Master Wuxuan’s face turned ugly, and he glared at Tang Tianyou with a fierce look. “Tang Tianyou, you little scoundrel, I’ll kill you!”
“Uncle Wuxuan, don’t be angry. I’ll help you deal with this scoundrel!”
Wu Teng strode forward in three steps, grabbing Tang Tianyou, who was still dazed from the blow. Tang Tianyou, having been slapped by Master Wuxuan, felt a buzzing in his ears and was in a daze, with blood flowing from his nose and mouth.
But looking at the menacing Wu Teng, the pitiful Wulingzhu, the furious Master Wuxuan, Master Wu Ao, and the disappointed Master Lu Entao, Tang Tianyou finally understood what had happened.
He had been framed!
He had been framed by Wu Teng and Wulingzhu together.
But… why?
He was alone in the world, with only Master Lu Entao showing him some kindness. Wu Teng and Wulingzhu had higher status and better connections. Why would they frame him?
At that moment, Master Lu Entao 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 Entao. Master Lu Entao had said he would choose one of them to become his personal disciple and teach him all his alchemical skills.
So that was it!
Wulingzhu and Wu Teng must have known about this and probably framed him…
How ridiculous.
Tang Tianyou had lost his parents at a young age and was all alone. He had been fortunate to enter the Qingyun Pavilion and become an ordinary alchemist. But now…
No matter what he said, no one would believe him.
Who would trust him?
“N-no… it wasn’t me…”
*Bang*!!!
Before Tang Tianyou could finish his sentence, Wu Teng threw another punch.
“Puuu…”
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 do such a thing?”
Punch after punch, Wu Teng kept hitting him. 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 moment, three figures arrived outside the courtyard.
Master Lu Xun, Ye Wushuang, and Qing Shihua hurriedly came to the scene.
Ye Wushuang looked at the crowd in the courtyard and raised an eyebrow. “Where is he?”
“Wh-where…” Master Lu Xun was stunned for a moment, looking at the scene in the courtyard and unable to speak.
Qing Shihua was also stunned, murmuring, “Tang Tianyou…”
Ye Wushuang’s gaze fell on the young man being beaten by Wu Teng. In that instant, Ye Wushuang’s expression froze and his body trembled slightly.
He looked so much like him!
The young man before him looked exactly like the young Tang Wenchuan that Ye Wushuang, as Ye Wentian, had first seen five hundred years ago. Even though several generations had passed, Tang Tianyou and his ancestor Tang Wenchuan were really… so similar!
But the next moment, seeing Tang Tianyou being beaten, Ye Wushuang’s face darkened.
Qing Shihua’s face also changed when she saw this.
She had heard her sister talk about many things about Ye Wushuang. This young man cared deeply for those close to him. Anyone who dared to harm them would be dealt with severely!
When she had seen her sister being bullied, even the stories Qing Shiyu told were terrifying.
Ye Wushuang had come to see Tang Tianyou so urgently and had asked about him more than once. Although she didn’t know the exact relationship between Ye Wushuang and Tang Tianyou, it was clear that Ye Wushuang cared about him… a lot!
“Master Ye, don’t rush…”
But before Qing Shihua could finish her sentence, Ye Wushuang had already rushed forward…
