Chapter 245 - Lesson

Chapter 245: Chapter 4 Lesson"Qi Weiwei." Bulaila kicked over a bucket of dirty water, splashing Weiwei all over.

Weiwei clenched the floor brush tightly in her hand, took a deep breath, and turned to ask, "What do you want?"

"Nothing much." Bulaila smiled and said, "Recently, I’ve seen you behave very well, keeping a good distance from De Kaka. Obedient children like you should be rewarded."

"No need, I just want to study in peace." Bulaila definitely wasn’t well-intentioned; Weiwei picked up the bucket and headed outside the classroom.

Bulaila’s two followers stepped forward to block the way: "Leilei spoke very clearly, why wouldn’t you want a reward?"

"I don’t want it." Weiwei said sternly, "Move aside!"

Slap!

A crisp sound echoed in the empty classroom, Weiwei fell to the ground, covering the swelling redness on her face, her eyes filled with hatred.

Yatus sneered, "I thought you were quite good at pretending, but this expression is what I really wanted to see."

"Why must you go so far in bullying me? Why!" Weiwei growled lowly.

"No, no, no." Another follower, Lisa, explained, "We are not deliberately targeting you; there are many others who get targeted too. It’s just your turn today."

"Aren’t you afraid of the instructor’s punishment?" Weiwei’s face was pale, and by saying this, she had lost her last line of defense. The instructor surely knew about the nobles’ bullying of the lower-class students over the years, but they just didn’t care.

"Hahaha," Anbulei laughed, "You summon the instructor then. I’d actually like to be instructed and taste the feeling of being punished for once."

Noble disciples had the support of their families, a steady supply of Magic Potions and Crystal Stones for their training, and they could easily complete the instructors’ teaching assignments with their elder family members’ guidance.

In contrast, the commoner children, relying solely on their own efforts, often found it difficult to meet the instructors’ demands and frequently suffered punishment.

Weiwei was cleaning the classroom today as a form of simple punishment.

"I’m through with you all!" Driven to this point, Weiwei could no longer tolerate it, and as she chanted softly, a green vine shot towards Bulaila.

Dong~

A flash of white light, and the Skill instantly dissolved. Weiwei was knocked flying backward, crashing into a heap of desks and chairs.

"Haha!" Bulaila laughed loudly: "You really are stupid, a druid doesn’t have any effective attack skills before the Second Transition, and without a magic scroll, what gives you the nerve to fight me?"

"But..." Bulaila’s eyes gradually grew colder: "Since you attacked me, even if I maim you, it’s just my self-defense."

Watching Bulaila step closer, Weiwei’s eyes filled with despair. Is this what the outside world is like? How much oppression? How much deception and trickery? How difficult and challenging?

Right as the slap was about to land on her face, Weiwei closed her eyes tightly, but long after, she felt no attack and opened her eyes in confusion, only to see a man in a cloak with a masked face holding Bulaila’s arm high.

"If your instructors won’t punish you, then let me do it," the masked man’s voice was icy cold, the bone-chilling murderous intent making Bulaila’s heart chill.

"Who... who are you?" Bulaila panicked, "I am the daughter of the Clan Leader of the Ropa family; if you dare to touch me, my father will never let you go!"

"What a load of rubbish family." The masked man casually threw Bulaila aside, slamming her against the wall, then turned sharply, his fierce gaze making the two followers reluctant to step forward: "You’d better get out of here, or don’t blame me for being ruthless."

"Is it Erlang Brother?" But from the voice, Weiwei recognized the familiar face beneath the mask, quickly struggled to her feet, and threw herself into Lu Hong’s embrace.

Lu Hong guiltily smoothed Weiwei’s tousled hair and handed her a bottle of Magic Potion: "Take this, and the swelling on your face will go down."

"Mhm." Weiwei swallowed the Magic Potion and buried herself in Lu Hong’s embrace, reluctant to leave.

"So, it’s this little wretch’s brother, you actually dare to hit me?" Bulaila pulled out a simple magical device and screamed while channeling Magic Power into it: "Father, someone wants to kill your daughter, come save me!"

Lu Hong glanced at the noble girl: "Don’t worry, I won’t hit you, I still can’t bring myself to strike a child, your father will properly discipline you."

"Hmph! Once my father comes, I’ll make sure he flays you and leaves you to starve hanging on the city wall!"

"Hey, little brother, this kid is too vicious, take her out!" the Ancestor Dragon instigated within Lu Hong, "Let her taste the harshness of society!"

"Erlang Brother, you must go, the Ropa family is very powerful, it’s too late if you don’t leave now!" Weiwei hastily urged.

"It’s already too late!" At this moment, a roar of anger came from outside the classroom; the door was smashed open, the Clan Leader of the Ropa family, with a grim face, entered: "Are you the one bullying my daughter?"

Lu Hong looked calmly at the other party and said, "Better discipline your daughter, it’s her who’s been bullying my sister."

"Cut the crap! My daughter is kind-hearted, you who spouts nonsense, seize him!" Tubu wasted no words; his guards were instantly charging out.

Lu Hong, with a single hand, summoned the War Holy Sword. As the blade’s wailing intertwined, Lu Hong staggered back two steps, while the Ropa family’s guards closely pursued, their weapons threatening his vital points.

"Are you trying to kill someone?" Lu Hong bellowed, his blood qi power erupting from the ground, sending the two flying.

Tubu snorted coldly, "I truly underestimated you. But then again, how could you dare provoke the Ropa family without any real ability?" After speaking, a group of guards burst through the walls from all directions of the classroom, charging towards Lu Hong.

"Get lost!" Lu Hong shouted. His Blood Qi Shockwave Skill swept through in all directions, leveling the entire teaching building.

Tubu and Bulaila were protected by a Ropa family’s Third Transition expert, who easily moved away from the danger and landed on an empty space nearby.

"Da Lao, capture this villain who dares to defy the Ropa family!"

At Tubu’s command, Da Lao chanted a skill, and several water dragons surged forth, biting towards Lu Hong.

Weiwei was still in Lu Hong’s arms. Faced with the Ropa family’s vicious act of disregarding others’ lives, Lu Hong couldn’t tolerate it. Third Transition, so what? If it were the middle or late stages, he might not be able to overcome them, but a mere early-stage Third Transition expert, Lu Hong had no fear. His divine light surging, "Heavenly God Descending" was activated once again.

With absolute magic immunity, the attack of the three water dragons was nothing more than mosquito bites to him. Lu Hong reached out to grab the tail of one water dragon, bursting it with a squeeze. Striding through the pouring rain, he approached Ropa.

"This......" Ropa was not foolish; this divine light had shone across the entire Star Sea two years ago, and influenced by Konstantin, the battle in the North had already been spread throughout the Star Sea.

Ropa panicked, truly panicked. This mother****er is the empire’s number one Earl of Meritorious Fields.

"Bar...... Baron, Ropa pays his respects to the Baron." Ropa hurriedly knelt, saluting Lu Hong. He hadn’t accepted the official title yet, still addressing him as Baron.

"It really is a family affair." Lu Hong sneered, "Looks like your daughter has fully inherited your character."

Withdrawing "Heavenly God Descending," the divine might gradually faded, and the Ropa family’s Third Transition expert’s suspended heart finally settled back down. An unleashed skill did absolutely no harm to him; this move had deeply shattered his spirit.

After this fierce battle, if the tutor chose to ignore it again, there really would be no excuse. Thus, he revealed himself, feigning ignorance, "What happened here?" Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"So you finally decided to show yourself," Lu Hong mocked Weiwei’s tutor as well. Weiwei’s unfair treatment was, in part, due to the tutor’s inaction.

"I apologize, Baron, for my negligence."

"Then commit harakiri here as an apology," Lu Hong said coldly. "People like you who allow nobles’ disciples to oppress commoners without reason, how can the students you teach ever succeed?"

"Um...... Baron, it was merely an oversight on my part, harakiri seems a bit much, doesn’t it? Besides, I’m from the Natural Teaching, not under imperial control." In other words, calling you Baron is out of respect, but that doesn’t mean you get to boss me around.

"Bro, let’s just let it go, shall we?" After an intense battle, Weiwei was quite unnerved, afraid things might escalate further.

"No harm," Lu Hong turned his head and looked towards the empty space, "How much longer are you going to hide?"

Danni withdrew her invisibility, curiously asking, "How did you find me?"

"It’s your scent that gave you away, truly intoxicating~" Lu Hong said with a lecherous grin and a chuckle.

"Ropa...... your servant pays respects to you, my lord!"

With Danni’s appearance, aside from Lu Hong and Weiwei, everyone else knelt on both knees, offering their salutations to Danni.

"My sister has been bullied on your turf, you take care of it," Lu Hong said, holding Weiwei and turning to leave, dumping the entire matter onto Danni.

"You never told me......" Danni complained in a whisper; had he mentioned earlier that his sister was studying in Green Forest, Danni would surely have treated her royally.

"My...... my lord," Weiwei’s tutor was extremely flustered, his earlier bravado completely shattered. Lu Hong might not be able to discipline him, but Danni could, absolutely.

"Go to the Utmost Demon Abyss, not to return for a hundred years." Danni didn’t waste words, exiling him to the frontier as punishment. After all, with how lax internal management had been, it was time for an internal shake-up.

As for Ropa and the others still kneeling and trembling on the ground, Danni paid them no heed and simply said, "Leave Green Forest, and I’ll let you live." Just for the attack they had directed at Lu Hong earlier, Danni certainly couldn’t let them off easily.

"Yes...... Yes," was Ropa’s response. The root of the Ropa family lay in Green Forest; leaving would be a heavy blow to the family, but Danni’s command was not something they could defy.

After Danni departed, Ropa glared fiercely at the instigator, Bulaila.

"Father...... Father?" It was the first time Bulaila had seen Ropa with such an expression.

"Unfilial daughter!"

Smack!

A harsh slap knocked out three of her teeth.
