Chapter 97: Mei Yongsi Incites Discord, “The World’s Stupidest Sect”
“The Tiansha Body Forging Technique is profound and far beyond your imagination.”
“If it were just a body refining technique, it wouldn’t have been passed down in Xuanwu Kingdom for so long.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng training the others, Gongsun Huaiyu merely adopted a spectator’s attitude, not at all worried that the anger directed at them might spill over onto her.
After all, she was quite pleased with her previous performance.
Although she had been defeated by Batu Lu, that had been due to a sneak attack; if they fought face to face, the outcome was still uncertain.
Just as Gongsun Huaiyu was calculating her thoughts, Chen Changsheng’s rage surged forth.
“Why are you smiling? You still have the face to smile!”
“Among the three of you, you are the weakest.”
“Your realm is higher than Su Tian’s, and your resources are also greater than Su Tian’s.”
“If I were you, if I couldn’t beat him to the ground and make him search for his teeth within thirty moves, I’d just find a block of tofu and crash into it.”
“Do you know why I mention tofu?”
“Because if you can’t d*e from it, you’d be humiliated—’humiliated’ means ‘shame’!”
“Who told you that being physically strong means you must engage in hand-to-hand combat? Don’t tell me you’re good at punching and kicking.”
“Others leverage their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, but you just flip it around—highlighting your weaknesses while avoiding your strengths.”
“Why not start your own sect? After all, being as foolish as you are is a rare flower in the cultivation world.”
“I’ve even thought of a name for you: ‘The World’s Stupidest Sect’!”
Chen Changsheng’s words made Gongsun Huaiyu’s face flush red.
Although she had been scolded by her master during her training, she had never experienced such a method of criticism!
Chen Changsheng’s words not only hit the nail on the head but his method of reprimanding was also unique.
At this moment, Gongsun Huaiyu would rather break a few bones than face Chen Changsheng’s reprimands.
“Ha~”
After successfully bringing Gongsun Huaiyu to the point where she couldn’t lift her head, Chen Changsheng let out a long sigh and then turned his gaze to the third victim.
Faced with Chen Changsheng’s gaze, Ye Henchuan instantly panicked.
He quickly reflected on his own shortcomings in an attempt to admit his mistakes early and reduce the number of scoldings he might receive.
“Your problems are significant, but they aren’t as bad as theirs.”
“Moreover, the root of your issue doesn’t lie with you, so we’ll set that aside for now.”
“Come to my room tonight; I have something to tell you.”
Chen Changsheng’s sudden gentleness not only left Ye Henchuan feeling extremely unaccustomed, but even the prodigy observing from the side was confused.
Ignoring everyone’s expressions, Chen Changsheng directly threw out a wooden puppet.
Golden threads flew from Chen Changsheng’s fingers and connected to the puppet.
After making the puppet perform a few actions, Chen Changsheng beckoned towards Mei Yongsi in the distance.
“Since you didn’t get to fight to your heart’s content earlier, I consider this service lacking.”
“To make up for your loss, how about I personally entertain you?”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s invitation, Mei Yongsi narrowed his eyes and smiled.
“I just had a very enjoyable exchange with Brother Ye; let’s forget about it.”
“Do you really want me to take action against you?”
Regarding Mei Yongsi’s refusal, Chen Changsheng simply said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Mei Yongsi’s smile vanished from his face.
“Since Brother Chen is so warmly inviting me, then I shall risk my life for the gentleman; it’s a good chance to witness Brother Chen’s skills.”
After saying this, Mei Yongsi slowly approached.
“I also didn’t get to enjoy myself fully; can I count myself in?”
Seeing there was going to be a fight, Batu Lu instantly joined in with enthusiasm.

“I only have one puppet; do you want to wait for a moment?”
Chen Changsheng’s tone was very calm, yet his eyes had changed.
If A-Li were here, he would definitely recognize this as the same gaze Chen Changsheng had used when he destroyed the Thunder Beast tribe.
Seeing that look, Batu Lu discreetly stepped back half a step.
Having fought with beasts since childhood, Batu Lu was extremely sensitive to danger.
“Let’s forget about it; looking at you seems tiring. We can arrange a date for another time.”
Seeing Batu Lu back down, Chen Changsheng also chose not to pursue the matter further.
At Kunlun Stone Workshop, a few prodigies had refrained from killing Gongsun Huaiyu, and this matter remained fresh in Chen Changsheng’s mind.
The reason he allowed Su Tian and the others to fight outside was to draw these people in.
At that time, there were three people who had the opportunity to k*ll Gongsun Huaiyu.
These three were Batu Lu from Southern Plain, Mei Yongsi from Langya Pavilion, and Fu Yao, the Yao Guang Saint Son.
Through previous observations, Chen Changsheng had gained some understanding of two of them.
Batu Lu seemed simple-minded, but in reality, he was quite perceptive.
Seventy-two Smoke Signals was the power of the Central Courtyard; if Gongsun Huaiyu were to d*e at his hands, he would likely have difficulty exiting Kunlun Sacred Ground.
Thus, he was cautious with everyone, it went the same for Kunlun Stone Workshop as well as for earlier engagements.
However, Mei Yongsi’s situation was different from Batu Lu’s.
Batu Lu unwillingly bore a grudge out of fear of strong dragons suppressing local snakes, while Mei Yongsi, as the heir of Langya Pavilion, shouldn’t have such concerns.
Langya Pavilion itself was at odds with Seventy-two Smoke Signals and wasn’t afraid of them either.
Under these circumstances, Mei Yongsi should have aimed for a decisive blow against Gongsun Huaiyu, but he didn’t.
Combined with his discreet actions, Chen Changsheng was certain.
Mei Yongsi must know something else and was plotting.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng turned to look at the Yao Guang Saint Son on the distant rooftop.
He had acquired a certain level of understanding of two of the three, but he had yet to see through this Yao Guang Saint Son.
At this moment, the Yao Guang Saint Son also noticed Chen Changsheng’s gaze.
However, in response to it, the Yao Guang Saint Son merely smiled slightly and then vanished from sight.
He showed no intention of engaging in a fight with Chen Changsheng.
“Brother Chen, I’ve come to learn from you.”
Mei Yongsi was now within ten steps of Chen Changsheng.
Faced with this mysterious figure, Mei Yongsi was extremely alert.
After glancing at this brilliant talent, Chen Changsheng said to Ye Henchuan.
“You have two masters; one is the Wolf Emperor of Night Moon Nation, and the other is the Invincible Daoist of Shangqing View.”
“You need to watch closely now; the Invincible Daoist’s boxing technique is not something you can use this way.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Changsheng sent the puppet charging toward Mei Yongsi.
“Boom!”
With a single punch!
Just one punch was enough to send the prodigy of Langya Pavilion retreating.
Seeing the boxing technique executed by the puppet, Mei Yongsi’s heart churned with waves of shock.
The boxing technique demonstrated by the puppet was the same as the one Ye Henchuan had just performed.
However, their powers were worlds apart; if Ye Henchuan’s boxing technique gave Mei Yongsi an eighty percent confidence of being able to block it,
Then with the boxing technique Chen Changsheng unleashed through the puppet, Mei Yongsi didn’t even have thirty percent certainty of withstanding it.
Let’s not forget, this was still a technique performed by a puppet under Chen Changsheng’s control; if Chen Changsheng executed this boxing technique himself, would Mei Yongsi even be capable of blocking this punch?
