Chapter 44: A Slap
The Fifth Elder now looked less decadent than before, and it was obvious that he had made a lot of preparations to deal with Chu Fengmian.
"Even if he didn't make any preparations, do you think Chu Fengmian could defeat the Fifth Elder?"
A Lin Mansion disciple sneered.
"In three months, he reached the Body Tempering Realm from the fifth level of the Bone Tempering Realm. Who does Chu Fengmian think he is? Even the Young Master took nearly half a year to do it. Can a little bastard be more talented than the Young Master?"
"Yes, Chu Fengmian will definitely lose this battle."
Another Lin Mansion disciple also spoke up.
"It's almost noon, why hasn't Chu Fengmian appeared yet?"
"I'm afraid he ran away because he was too scared."
A sneering voice sounded, and it was Lin Ye, who said with a sinister look on his face.
"If he really escapes, Chu Fengmian will be a criminal of our Lin Mansion. He violated the family rules and will be hunted down by everyone in our Lin Mansion!"
"That's right, even if we chase him to the ends of the earth, we must kill this kid!"
Lin Mo also said viciously.
The two of them were beaten so badly by Chu Fengmian before, and now Chu Fengmian hates him even more.
"Chu Fengmian, you must not come."
The third elder on the stand beside him had a calm face, but the sweat in his palms fully reflected his nervousness.
The third elder now hoped that Chu Fengmian would not come, so that Chu Fengmian might still have a chance to survive, and with Chu Fengmian's qualifications, he could still grow up in the future.
If he came today, the third elder would not have much confidence in Chu Fengmian. It took him several years to go from the fifth level of the Bone Tempering Realm to the level of the Body Tempering Realm in three months.
Three months is too short, and the third elder himself is not confident.
"Third elder, it seems that the little bastard is ready to flee without a fight. Escaping the life and death agreement is a capital crime. If we, the disciples of the Lin Mansion, meet him in the future, the first thing we will do is to kill this little bastard!"
The fat fourth elder sat aside and sneered at the third elder.
He had always disliked the third elder, especially Chu Fengmian, who had always been very targeted.
Now seeing that Chu Fengmian had not appeared, the fourth elder's expression became even more proud.
As long as Chu Fengmian did not show up today, it would be a foregone conclusion that Chu Fengmian had violated the family rules. Even if Chu Fengmian had the identity of the chief steward of the outer mansion, it would be impossible for the third elder to protect Chu Fengmian.
"That's right. If Chu Fengmian has not appeared at noon, this life and death agreement will be considered as him fleeing without a fight."
The second elder, who is also the law enforcement elder of the Lin Mansion, also spoke coldly on the side.
"Well, if Chu Fengmian hasn't appeared by noon, even if he escapes without a fight, it violates the family rules. In the future, all Lin Mansion disciples will kill him when they see him!"
Before the third elder opened his mouth to refute, the Lin Family Lord had already spoken in a cold voice.
As soon as he opened his mouth, almost all other possibilities were cancelled, no matter how much he said, it was useless.
Time passed by, the sun was blazing, and it was almost noon.
"Since Chu Fengmian doesn't dare to come, then execute the family law, law enforcement elder, you announce it."
The fifth elder standing on the stage said in a cold voice.
The law enforcement elder glanced around, nodded and spoke.
"Okay! Chu Fengmian escaped without a fight after a life-and-death agreement! Violating the family rules is already a capital crime. In the future, all Lin Mansion disciples will kill Chu Fengmian when they see him!"
"The law enforcement elder is so anxious. How can it be a violation of the family rules before noon?"
A teasing voice suddenly sounded.
A voice suddenly jumped out from the surroundings and landed on the stage.
This figure was Chu Fengmian.
"Chu Fengmian?"
"He dared to come?"
Seeing Chu Fengmian suddenly appear, almost everyone was a little surprised.
They all thought that Chu Fengmian had escaped. After all, facing the fifth elder, there was only one way to die, but Chu Fengmian came today.
At this last moment, he stood on the stage of life and death.
"Little bastard, you are here! I thought you ran away."
The fifth elder looked at Chu Fengmian, his eyes full of murderous intent.
"That's fine. Today I will kill you, little bastard, with my own hands! Avenge my Xing'er!"
"Even if you kneel down and beg for mercy today! I can't let you go! I will extract your soul! Put it in front of Xing'er's mausoleum! Light it up! Let Xing'er's spirit in heaven be comforted!"
Chu Fengmian killed Li Xing, the only grandson of the fifth elder Li Fu. Now he has long wanted to cut Chu Fengmian into pieces.
"Stop talking nonsense, Li Fu. If you have the ability today, how about I stand here and let you kill me?"
Chu Fengmian said with a bit of teasing at the corner of his mouth.
"But if you don't have the ability, who will die on this life and death stage today?"
"Little bastard! Arrogant! A waste, do you really think you are a big shot!"
Hearing Chu Fengmian's words, the Fifth Elder's face suddenly turned red, and his veins were exposed. He did not look like an old man over fifty years old at all.
"As an elder, I will naturally not take advantage of you, a junior. How about I let you do three moves? After three moves, I will make a move."
The Fifth Elder stood in place, sneering at Chu Fengmian.
A layer of golden barrier slowly emerged on his body.
Spiritual power turned into armor, now the Fifth Elder used the means of a warrior in the Body Forging Realm. This move is almost an unbeatable move against a warrior in the Bone Tempering Realm.
"He used spiritual power to turn into armor at the beginning. This Fifth Elder is too steady."
The people below were also a little surprised when they saw this scene.
It seems that the Fifth Elder was also very cautious about Chu Fengmian. He used spiritual power to turn into armor as soon as he made a move to prevent any accidents.
Another disciple of the Lin Mansion also spoke.
"That's normal. I don't know where Chu Fengmian learned his body movements and swordsmanship. It's not wrong to be on guard."
"Li Fu, did you really let Chu attack first?"
Chu Fengmian looked at the fifth elder and sneered.
"Don't regret it when the time comes."
"I keep my word and never regret it. I'll let you, a junior, take three moves, and it seems that I..."
Before the fifth elder finished speaking, a crisp sound suddenly rang out.
"Pa!"
A loud slap hit the fifth elder's face.
Chu Fengmian's figure seemed to be still standing in the same place without any change, but the fifth elder was slapped on the left face, and a red palm print was clearly visible.
Even the fifth elder's mouth was half swollen.
