Chapter 1962

"I really do have business. I just want to beat you up." Zhu Yanyi finished speaking and began stretching her joints, looking ready to fight.

(⊙o⊙)… Everyone on the same flying boat was stunned. That was the Ancestor. Who was as bold as Zhu Yanyi?

Xi Muzheng coughed twice. "Zhu Yanyi, what are you saying? How can you think of beating the Ancestor?"

"Because she deserves it," Zhu Yanyi answered seriously.

"How do I deserve it? Tell me." The Ancestor couldn't even remember how he had offended this little ancestor.

"You still don't admit it? Tell me. If it weren't for you, would so many students from our Sage Academy have sacrificed themselves? If it weren't for your arrogance, our students would just do their duty as healers. What is a healer? Someone who treats wounded warriors. In games back home, we call them 'healers.' Those who attack directly have other roles, like attackers or tanks. For example, the Shangmo Academy uses magic for ranged attacks. The Yuanwu Academy practices martial arts for close combat. If you hadn't been so vain and notified other academies, those evil demons would have been destroyed long ago. Why wait until now? Look at our Sage Academy now. Many senior brothers and sisters have entered the cycle of reincarnation. Tell me, isn't this your fault?"

Zhu Yanyi had wanted to settle this score for a long time. Now that she had found her, she naturally had to settle it properly.

The Ancestor hadn't expected things to be like this. He didn't know what to say for a moment, so he said, "I didn't expect things to develop to this point either."

"Pah, excuses," Zhu Yanyi said angrily. "It's understandable you didn't expect it at first. But it's been hundreds or thousands of years, and you still don't realize it? Are you senile? You were just vain. So beating you is absolutely right."

After speaking, Zhu Yanyi pointed a finger at the Ancestor. "If you have the courage, stand still. I'm going to beat you."

(⊙o⊙)… She really wanted to beat her? Xi Muzheng hurried over. "Zhu Yanyi, Zhu Yanyi, remember, that is the Ancestor. Can you show some respect for your teacher?"

"I'll show respect after I beat her. Don't worry. I'm just beating her, not killing her. If I wanted to kill her, I would just use medicine." Zhu Yanyi’s kind expression left Xi Muzheng speechless.

What Zhu Yanyi said was true. If she really wanted to deal with the Ancestor, she would just use medicine. In the entire Sage Academy, she was the most skilled at using medicine. No one could compare to her.

Xi Muzheng coughed. "But Zhu Yanyi, she is the Ancestor. Give her some face. At least don't beat her here."

"Why not? It's all her fault that our senior brothers and sisters now suffer from post-traumatic stress. If I don't settle the score with her, I feel bad." Zhu Yanyi looked willful. "Actually, I want to say, why not let all the senior brothers and sisters beat her together? After all, the law does not punish the majority. She can't punish all of us, right?"

Zhu Yanyi smiled, even using the phrase "the law does not punish the majority." The Ancestor nearby was so angry she said, "Can you not say that in front of me?"

"No," Zhu Yanyi retorted. "If I don't say it in front of you, you won't know where you went wrong. That would be wrong." Zhu Yanyi spoke very seriously, looking like a good child who takes responsibility for her actions.

Yi Yunfei and others on the flying boat were barely holding back their laughter. They knew Zhu Yanyi was usually lazy, but occasionally quirky and clever. Now, the Ancestor was really suffering.

"Um, Senior Brother Sikong, can we really beat the Ancestor?" Li Zhengyong asked Sikong Xuran quietly. But his voice wasn't a secret transmission, so almost everyone on the boat heard it.

"Cough." Instantly, countless coughs erupted one after another. Sikong Xuran looked at Li Zhengyong with a bitter smile.

Wen Ziyuan nearby hurriedly said, "Zhengyong, don't talk nonsense. How can we just beat the Ancestor?"

She paused. "Although, hearing Junior Sister's words, I actually kind of want to beat the Ancestor too."

"How about we go beat the Ancestor together?" Li Zhengyong even suggested.

Zhu Yanyi nodded beside them. "Senior Brother Wen, Senior Brother Li, come quickly. Let's beat the Ancestor together."

Wen Ziyuan was silent for a moment, but Li Zhengyong came over. "Junior Sister, can we really beat the Ancestor? Aren't we afraid he'll get angry?"

"Don't worry about people getting angry when you can beat them," Zhu Yanyi said with a very serious expression, teaching gently. "If you want to worry about people getting angry, beat them first, then worry."

"Zhu Yanyi, you can't do that," Xi Muzheng said, looking at her. Actually, she also felt a urge to beat someone. She quickly shook off that feeling. She seemed to be getting corrupted too.

The Ancestor looked at Zhu Yanyi in surprise. "Aren't you afraid of me? Do you know my cultivation level?"

"Nonsense. What does knowing your cultivation have to do with beating you? Besides, I don't plan to fight you. I just want to beat you one-sidedly." Zhu Yanyi smiled. "And, if I beat you, I'm happy. If I don't beat you, I'm unhappy. If I'm unhappy, my husband is unhappy. If my husband is unhappy, Dean, what do you think will happen?"

Xi Muzheng almost forgot that Yan Aohan was behind Zhu Yanyi. Hearing this, she realized he was deliberately forcing her to take a stance.

Xi Muzheng leaned close and whispered a few words in the Ancestor's ear. The Ancestor looked at Zhu Yanyi, her mouth wide open. "You… you are really her fiancée?"

Zhu Yanyi nodded. "Of course I am her fiancée. If I weren't, why would I be here? For fun?"

She sighed. "If it weren't to catch up with her sooner, I wouldn't need to work so hard. Anyway, I don't care now. Tell me, can I beat you? Give me a straight answer."

So beating someone required them to offer themselves up?

Ouyang Tianyun, one of those who knew the truth, heard Zhu Yanyi bring up "that person." She knew she would definitely beat the Ancestor this time.

Beating the Ancestor was a rare event. So Ouyang Tianyun also started stretching his muscles, preparing for action.

The Ancestor spoke kindly. "Let's discuss this. How about we forget about the beating?"

"No." Zhu Yanyi shook her head directly, her expression leaving no room for doubt.
