Martial Emperor Reborn(Completed) - C958 Cao Cheng
C958 Cao Cheng
This person was Mo Rong, and the reason why he stood out, was not only because Lin Long saved him, but also because he could see that Yuwen Peng and the rest were working together to deal with Lin Long.
Mo Rong, are you crazy? You actually dare to speak up for Lin Li! Seeing that Mo Rong dared to stand out, the few people that were with Mo Rong couldn’t help but have this thought.
The reason why Yuwen Peng was so strong was naturally because of his formidable strength.
“Mo Rong, you actually dare to work with Lin Li!” Seeing that there was actually someone who dared to stand up for Lin Long, Yuwen Peng’s face immediately became gloomy, and shouted at Mo Rong.
“Senior brother Yuwen, Lin Li is a kind and upright person. He is willing to save his fellow brothers in danger. I believe that such a person would never do such a thing.” Mo Rong was not afraid of Yuwen Peng, but said loudly.
“What do you mean by straight and kind? If you work with him, you will naturally speak up for him!” someone from Yuwen Peng’s side said.
“Just now, something like this happened, Tang Yi and I were sent to a cave to investigate, and were accidentally trapped inside by a few evil spirits. What made our hearts turn cold was, although the few Senior Brothers Zheng Liangpeng and the others could have saved us, they were afraid of encountering danger, so they abandoned us and did not care about us. At such a critical juncture, Lin Li actually went alone to save us. Fortunately, we were lucky enough to escape from the cave. ”
“There is indeed such a thing.” Tang Yi also stood up and shouted.
With that, they pointed at the wounds they had left on their bodies while fighting the evil spirits.
“To think that there would be such a thing.”
“Zheng Liangliang and his men are actually not going to save anyone!”
“Lin Li risking his own life to save others, he really is righteous and righteous.”
For a moment, most of them could not help but sigh. They did not believe Yuwen Peng and the others just now, but after hearing what Mo Rong said, they even more so did not believe Yuwen Peng and Zheng Liang.
“You are spouting nonsense and spreading rumors!” Zheng Liangpeng immediately stood up and shouted at Mo Rong and Tang Yi.
“You two actually came here together to spread rumors and deceive your fellow senior brother. You two sure are bold!” Yuwen Peng laughed coldly.
What he did not expect was that at this time, Big Senior Brother Gu Qingyun actually stood up and said to Yuwen Peng with a stern face, “Yuwen Peng, I know your character, so I believe Lin Li and Mo Rong’s words.”
“Gu Qingyun, what do you mean?” Seeing that Gu Qingyun actually dared to stand in front of him, Yuwen Peng could not help but be somewhat surprised.
Although Gu Qingyun was the eldest senior brother, her strength was still inferior to his. Sometimes, when doing quests, he would have to help Gu Qingyun, so, for a long time, Gu Qingyun had always been lowly and submissive in front of him.
“It’s nothing. I’m just speaking the truth.” Gu Qingyun said.
“Oh, then don’t think about obtaining anything from me, Yuwen Peng, in the future!” Yuwen Peng said with a darkened face.
Hearing the other party’s words, Gu Qingyun could only smile indifferently.
“I believe in Lin Li and Mo Rong. This is all because of Senior Brother Yuwen Peng and Zheng Liangliang!”
When Gu Qingyun stood out, many people immediately responded.
Although Gu Qingyun’s strength was weaker than Yuwen Peng’s, she still had some prestige in Stone Courtyard. Seeing someone like him taking the lead, those who believed in Lin Long naturally stood up to support him.
In that moment, there were quite a few people who stood up to support him. Unexpectedly, there were more than half of them.
Furthermore, there were a few who did not dare to offend Yuwen Peng, so one could imagine how many people were supporting him.
Seeing this situation, Yuwen Peng’s face naturally became incomparably ugly.
“What’s wrong with this Gu Qingyun today, how dare she oppose me?” He looked unwillingly at the person beside him and asked.
“Senior Brother Yuwen, you don’t understand. That Mo Rong is his cousin. Mo Rong almost died because of this. Why don’t you tell me why he is standing with Mo Rong and Lin Li?” That person immediately replied.
Hearing this, Yuwen Peng’s face twitched.
He cursed Zheng Liangliang in his heart. Why did he fail at such a small matter?
“Everyone be quiet, I think it would be better to let Instructor Han and Master handle this matter. Everyone should unite to kill those evil spirits, after all, this is related to whether or not we can obtain contribution points in the future, whether or not we can enter the Ten Thousand Devil Peak to comprehend the Devil Arts!” Although his heart was against Lin Long, such a quarrel between his own fellow sect members was not a good thing, so Su Fei immediately stood forward to speak up.
“That’s right. This matter is better handled when we go back. We should be united to hunt for more evil spirits. Otherwise, we would be outdone by others.”
Su Fei’s words woke everyone up from their stupor.
Following that, under the suggestion of a few people, Yuwen Peng’s authority as the leader was revoked, and the other two senior brothers led them to hunt evil spirits in the fourth floor.
The relationship between these two senior brothers and Yuwen Peng was just average, so they naturally would not go against Lin Long.
However, Lin Long did not ask to not lead the charge, so he was still one of the people leading the charge.
Such an outcome naturally made Yuwen Peng hate them half to death.
Although he was furious, he quickly controlled his anger. He turned to Zheng Liangliang and asked, “Good friend, what’s going on with you guys? How did you guys end up being tricked by that brat?”
At that time, that brat was in a passive position. We directly knocked away the evil ghost in front of us and then attacked him together with a palm. However, what we did not expect was that the brat was very clever, he actually discovered our attack beforehand and hid behind the evil ghost before we could attack. Zheng Liangpeng smiled bitterly.
“Just this alone is not enough to fool you all.” Yuwen Peng asked again.
“That alone is naturally not enough, but that brat actually showed a strange movement skill. This movement skill allowed him to dodge the attacks of those evil spirits and hide behind us, and the result is that those evil spirits focus their attention on us, and that brat is actually threatening us from behind. “We can’t blame ourselves for being careless at that time. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been tricked like this.” Zheng Liangben said.
“So that’s how it is.” Yuwen Peng’s face twitched, and then asked, “What movement skill did that kid use?”
“I don’t know. In short, he easily avoided those evil spirits.” Zheng Liangben said.
How would he know that Lin Long was only using some ordinary devil technique, just because he was strong enough to get rid of those evil spirits?
“Senior-apprentice Brother Yuwen, what should we do now?” Zheng Liang-ben asked.
“Naturally, I still have to find an opportunity to deal with that Lin Li. If I can’t kill him this time, I, Yuwen Peng’s name will be written upside down!” Yuwen Peng said coldly.
“It’s just that that kid is obviously already on alert. Coupled with the fact that everyone else’s attention is on us, it’s hard to find an opportunity.” Zheng Liangben said.
“Relax, this time when I personally take action, I do not believe that I, Yuwen Peng, cannot handle a mere Lin Li.” Yuwen Peng said.
From his point of view, the more others thought that he wouldn’t act, the greater the chances were.
“I hope that you can deal with that kid, Senior Brother Yuwen.” Zheng Liangpeng could not help but say.
He didn’t even notice it himself, but when Yuwen Peng said that he wanted to deal with Lin Long, he immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
Following that, Yuwen Peng kept a close eye on Lin Long’s situation while he killed the evil spirits. He said that he would deal with Lin Long, but in truth, even he did not know when would be the best time to deal with Lin Long.
After a period of time, to everyone’s surprise, the number of evil spirits they were facing became more and more, and sometimes even more caped generals appeared.
However, if they were to work together, these evil spirits naturally wouldn’t be able to do anything to them.
Although these evil spirits could not do anything to them, they were starting to get tired as they continued to fight.
Some of the new disciples might even accidentally get injured.
After fighting for two hours, their faces were all filled with excitement. This was because they had actually bumped into the disciples of another elder.
The number of people on the other side was more than thirty people. With their help, the evil spirits that had surged out were suppressed.
Once they settled down, the person called Cao Cheng who led the group immediately came over to greet them. However, it was obvious that other than Yuwen Peng, no one else in the entire Stone Courtyard was worthy of his attention.
“Wen Peng, you’ve made a pretty good living with these martial brothers and sisters.” Seeing Yuwen Peng, Cao Cheng’s arrogant face revealed a modest smile.
“Not at all.” Yuwen Peng said with an ugly expression.
Right now, he was not leading the team, but Cao Cheng actually said that he was leading the team in public.
“Wen Peng, did something happen?” Seeing Yuwen Peng like this, Cao Cheng could not help but ask.
“Nothing.” Yuwen Peng said.
After chatting for a bit longer, Cao Cheng finally returned to his own team.
Halfway there, Yuwen Peng suddenly appeared in front of him.
“Wen Peng, what’s the matter?” Yuwen Peng’s strange behavior naturally puzzled him.
“Let’s talk.” Yuwen Peng said.
Immediately, the two people that left Cao Cheng’s side arrived at a cave.
“Cao Cheng, I want you to help me with something.” Yuwen Peng went straight to the point.
“As long as it’s within my power, I, Cao Cheng, will definitely help you.” Cao Cheng patted his chest and said.
“It’s like this,” Yuwen Peng immediately said out the matter. Of course, from his mouth, it was naturally about Lin Long joining hands with Gu Qingyun to frame him.
“This Lin Li really used his talent to his advantage!” Listening to how Yuwen Peng had been framed to the point of making the people of the Stone Courtyard doubt him, to the point of even losing the authority to command, Cao Cheng immediately said in a cold voice.
“Cao Cheng, because of the loss of my authority, I am unable to approach him. Can you help me to teach him a lesson?” Seeing Cao Cheng’s expression, Yuwen Peng felt joy in his heart and hurriedly asked.
“Don’t worry, just teach me about this.” Cao Cheng immediately said.
