My Master Knows It All-Chapter 194 - 127 Accidental Focus_5

They indeed did not drive away the disciples of Purple Dawn Peak, instead it was the disciples of Purple Dawn Peak who voluntarily gave way upon seeing them approach; that could not be called expulsion.

"Alright," Ru Wenlin once again waved his hand, interrupting BeiChen Ying and said, "This place belongs to Purple Dawn Peak, and we have sat here long enough. Now that the owner has arrived, it is no longer appropriate for us to occupy this spot.

"We shall leave first. As for Master Han attacking Peak Master Cao, that is not something we should intervene in at this moment."

As he spoke, he cast a surreptitious glance at Li Lingwei.

Li Lingwei suddenly realized what was going on and shouted, "You go on ahead, I’ll stay. I am an elder of the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace, and I will enforce the law right now!"

Upon hearing the words "Law Enforcement Immortal Palace," Cao Zhen remembered that this fourth sister was an elder of the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace. How did she, being one of the Hundred Peaks Five... Six Evils, manage to infiltrate the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace?

He would have to ask for some pointers someday.

Also, Elder Ru’s tactics are truly cunning; by claiming there was no one here and that they were just sitting temporarily, saying they would leave upon the owner’s arrival, he made sure there was nothing to fault. Additionally, was Li Lingwei deciding to carry out law enforcement as an elder of the Law Enforcement Immortal Palace also his doing?

Although Han ZiXia only used one palm strike, the sound was far from quiet, and the golden light emanating from Cao Zhen’s body was so conspicuous that it was hard not to take notice.

In the entire courtyard, almost everyone turned to look towards the direction of the confrontation.

"What’s going on? Is someone fighting during the Golden Core Club meeting at Vermilion Bird Peak?"

"Who is this, showing so little respect for Vermilion Bird Peak?"

"That person radiating golden light, isn’t that Cao Zhen?"

The crowd quickly recognized Cao Zhen.

From afar, Li Ke watched the golden light and her mouth dropped open in surprise. The golden light, the aura, this was... the Gold Light Spell! There was no mistake, this must be the Gold Light Spell, and judging by the intensity of the light and the aura, the level of cultivation seemed no weaker than her own.

Cao Zhen, he possessed the Gold Light Spell, meaning he was another successor of the late Long Aotian!

Why him!

He...

A thought suddenly struck Li Ke. This Cao Zhen, who previously, for the sake of earning some spirit stones, went to other peaks to sell divine weapons left by others’ ancestors in the Divine Soldier Tomb—is clearly someone who would do anything for money. Since that is the case, she could find him and work together.

Moreover, hadn’t Long Aotian said before to help look after his successor? Besides, she needed an excuse for going easy on him in the future.

In an instant, she made a decision and quickly walked towards Cao Zhen.

Following her, Tu Zhuque also moved forward, void of any smile on her face by now. One Chen Qingluan was irritating enough, but now someone dared to cause trouble on such a day, a direct affront to her!

Cao Zhen?

Very well, she would let him know today that Vermilion Bird Peak was not a place where anyone could cause trouble.

Chen Qingluan followed closely behind. Someone was making trouble on Vermilion Bird Peak; how could she miss such excitement?

Around Cao Zhen, many people had already started to sneer.

"Cao Zhen making trouble at a Vermilion Bird Peak banquet, let’s see how he deals with the aftermath."

"The Hundred Peaks Five Evils, with them around, trouble is bound to happen."

"It’s now the Hundred Peaks Six Evils."

"Li Ke has arrived, the protagonist of the Golden Core Club is here. Let’s see what Cao Zhen and his group will do!"

"Immortal Li Ke has come to seek an explanation!"

"Chief Tu has also come, do you think the Hundred Peaks Six Evils will be driven away?"

Liu Zhixing, while discussing Cao Zhen’s numerous misdeeds with Elder Shen, smiled inwardly as he saw Li Ke and her group approaching, and quickly walked up to meet them.

Cao Zhen was puzzled. The one who had acted was not him—he was the one who got hit; why was everyone watching him as if they were enjoying a show?

And also...

Suddenly, a pleasing female voice rang in his ears.

"In a moment, say that you are my Dao companion, the kind where we’ve acknowledged the relationship, but haven’t formally become Dao companions yet."

Secret voice transmission, this was Li Ke’s voice.

Cao Zhen looked at Li Ke without giving anything away and responded with his own secret voice transmission, "Why should I agree to you?" It was obvious that Li Ke’s master was pressuring her. He had heard from Zhonghua Cloud before that Tu Zhuque had been pushing Li Ke to get married, so Li Ke finding someone to pretend to be her Dao companion made perfect sense. The question was, why choose him?

"I’ll give you one hundred thousand taels of spirit stones," Li Ke’s voice transmitted again.

One hundred thousand!

Cao Zhen thought to himself, this woman was loaded; she casually offered one hundred thousand spirit stones, obviously in a great hurry, and now was not the time to pass up on fleecing her.

He transmitted back, "Two hundred thousand."

"Two hundred thousand?" Li Ke’s voice was filled with surprise and annoyance, "Do you have any idea how many people in the Hundred Peaks Sect, even within the Guardian Immortal Dynasty, wish to become my Dao companion? And yet you’re asking me for two hundred thousand taels of spirit stones to pretend to be mine!"

"What others want to do is their business, it has nothing to do with me," Cao Zhen replied privately via voice transmission, "My condition is two hundred thousand taels of spirit stones."

"Fine, you drive a hard bargain! Two hundred thousand taels of spirit stones, you’ll get them after," Li Ke replied through the voice transmission, as she neared Cao Zhen. But before she could reach him, a figure had already swiftly stepped forward.

"Immortal Li Ke, you were not here just now and might not know what happened here. I have been right beside, witnessing everything. That Peak Master Cao Zhen from Four Treasures Peak, he took over Purple Dawn Peak’s spot, triggering this conflict."
