Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1978 - 1975: Such Arrogant Words

This slap, full of force, was like a heavy hammer directly striking Lou An dumbfounded.

He stood there as if an immobilization spell had been cast on him, stunned, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

At this moment, Qi Lechun was already brimming with anger, like a volcano on the brink of eruption.

His white hair and eyebrows flew wildly in his furious aura, like flags in a storm, revealing the turmoil in his heart.

The disciples of the Punishment Hall were initially aggressive, like tigers descending a mountain.

But now, seeing Qi Lechun in such a state, they felt like they had been doused with cold water, instantly sobering up, and stopped their actions.

A furious elder was not something they could bear, especially the thunderous wrath of one of the Eight Great Elders. Although Qi Lechun did not participate in the daily management of the Heavenly Nether Sect and focused only on refining Netherworld Talismans, his status within the sect remained unaffected, still high and mighty.

On regular days, if any elder wanted a Netherworld Talisman, they’d come to Qi Lechun.

Over time, Qi Lechun accumulated many favors within the Heavenly Nether Sect. Everyone had to show him some courtesy, and no one wished to easily become his enemy.

Even the ordinary disciples owed some favor to Qi Lechun and his lineage.

After all, when disciples wanted the Netherworld Talisman, didn’t they go to Qi Lechun’s disciples for help?

Therefore, within the Heavenly Nether Sect, the one least to be offended was undoubtedly Qi Lechun and his lineage.

However, Lou An had let anger overwhelm his rationality, only thinking of swiftly dealing with Xu Wendong to satisfy his heart’s desire for revenge.

He completely ignored Qi Lechun’s attitude toward Xu Wendong, in his mind, Xu Wendong was his only target for revenge, and everything else was thrown aside.

"Elder Qi...you..." Lou An stammered, a tremble in his voice, his eyes filled with shock and resentment.

But Qi Lechun did not give him any chance to react. Qi Lechun’s arm rose high again, carrying with it a gust of wind. "Pa!" Another fierce slap landed on Lou An’s face.

The two crisp slapping sounds echoed in the air.

Lou An saw stars, his body swayed a few times, nearly losing his balance.

His cheek quickly swelled with red, and even a trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

"I already know what happened on Treasure Street. It was entirely instigated by Liu Hao!" Qi Lechun’s voice was loud as a bell, resonating in everyone’s ears.

His gaze was cold as frost on a cold night, firmly fixed on Lou An.

"He stirred trouble between Zhou Ran and Lin Mo, and according to sect rules, he can’t escape responsibility!"

"Why didn’t you go after him but instead came for Lin Mo?" Qi Lechun questioned coldly, each word seemed to carry sharp blades, stabbing into Lou An’s heart.

The people from the Punishment Hall looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

Clearly, they did not know the details, only heard that Liu Hao was beaten, but the reason for the beating, they were clueless.

Lou An gritted his teeth, his facial muscles twitching slightly due to anger and tension.

"Elder Qi, Lin Mo did indeed strike someone, he should be punished!" Lou An said, bracing himself, his voice stubborn but mostly guilty.

Hearing this, Qi Lechun directly laughed in anger.

"Zhou Ran also hit someone, shouldn’t you catch him too?" Qi Lechun retorted, his eyes gleaming sharply.

"Senior brother Zhou Ran was misled, so we only catch the main culprit." Lou An quickly replied, not daring to meet Qi Lechun’s eyes.

He knew clearly he dared not really catch Zhou Ran.

Zhou Ran had a great reputation in the Heavenly Nether Sect, often helping many disciples refine Netherworld Talismans for free.

To catch Zhou Ran would undoubtedly offend all disciples of the Heavenly Nether Sect, making oneself a target for everyone, falling into an inescapable abyss.

"You are really biased, my pupil also hit Liu Hao, yet you don’t catch him."

"Lin Mo was bullied, yet you want to catch him."

"Is this the Punishment Hall?" Qi Lechun said while stepping towards Lou An.

His steps were steady and forceful, each one seemed to step on everyone’s hearts.

He raised his hand again, preparing to strike, scaring Lou An to take a subconscious step back.

This statement left everyone around stunned.

The disciples from the Punishment Hall exchanged glances, shock and confusion filling their eyes.

If they remembered correctly, wasn’t Zhou Ran Qi Lechun’s direct disciple? Why did Qi Lechun seem as if he wished Zhou Ran to be caught now?

What was going on here?

Even Li Jiayin was left speechless, secretly lamenting how increasingly chaotic the situation had become.

"Today I declare, if you dare catch Lin Mo, don’t blame me for being ruthless!" Qi Lechun spoke loudly, his eyes full of disdain, as if he did not take Lou An and the Punishment Hall seriously.

"Haha, Old Qi, you certainly have a big mouth."

At that moment, a white-haired elder slowly descended from the sky, like a light feather.

His posture was upright, his demeanor extraordinary, but within his eyes, there was a hint of coldness and arrogance.

As soon as he appeared, Lou An felt as if he saw a savior, his previously tense nerves instantly relaxed, letting out a long breath.

"An Guang!" Qi Lechun’s eyes flashed, a trace of vigilance passing through.

He hadn’t expected this guy to appear at this moment.

The newcomer was Elder An Guang, one of the Eight Great Elders, and Lou An’s master.

At present, he stood before everyone like a towering mountain, giving off an invisible sense of oppression.

Xu Wendong narrowed his eyes, covertly becoming vigilant.

Back then, this Elder An Guang wanted to take him as a disciple, and was willing to give up Lou An.

Just later Xu Wendong was taken by Sect Master Peak, and Elder An Guang lost the opportunity.

Now he’d suddenly arrived, surely it wasn’t for anything good.

Elder An Guang surveyed the surroundings, his eyes sharp as eagles, able to see through everything.

Then he fixedly stared at Xu Wendong, his mouth slightly curling up, showing a playful smile.

"Boy, you crippled my disciple’s arm before, I didn’t argue with you, but your temperament is too aggressive, even hitting Liu Hao."

"A lesson would’ve sufficed."

"But I didn’t expect you would actually beat him severely! That’s a bit excessive!" Elder An Guang’s voice was deep and icy, chilling to the bone.

"Today, no matter what, you have to go to the Punishment Hall; otherwise, it’s hard to answer to Liu Hao."

After finishing, Elder An Guang placed his hands behind his back, standing tall and proud.

Since Xu Wendong had Qi Lechun backing him, he’d back his own disciple.

In his view, if he didn’t suppress Xu Wendong’s arrogance, he’d surely become openly arrogant in the future, dismissing everyone else!
