Chapter 451 Have You Eaten Today?
Pa!
Pa!
Pa!
Sounds that resembled waves crashing onto rocks came from the torture chamber.
It was obvious how hard those two disciples were hitting Qin Chuan.
After all, they had received a fee, so they naturally had to do their part.
The two disciples gripped the maces tightly, their expressions focused. As one moved up, the other struck down. The rhythm was great.
Qin Chuan lay on the long bench and groaned.
He sounded pretty miserable, but judging from the expression on his face, it didn’t seem to be the case.
Under normal circumstances, his face should be pale, and his head should be covered in a cold sweat.
But what about Qin Chuan.
Other than howling, his expression did not change at all, and his aura did not show any signs of disorder.
Fan Zhibao noticed this and thought to himself, “Why isn’t this fellow affected at all? Are these two people not using any strength?”
“Junior Brothers, can we stop for a moment?” Fan Zhibao called out.
“Senior Brother Fan, what’s wrong?” The two of them stopped moving.
Fan Zhibao said, “It seems to me that it’s tiring for you both after such a long time. Why don’t you take a break? Let me help you finish the remaining hits.”
“Well…” The two of them hesitated.
Fan Zhibao was not a disciple of the disciplinary office and did not have the right to enforce the rules.
If he was allowed to help, these two people would be breaking the rules.
Once this disciple launched a complaint, the nature of the matter would change.
They did not dare to take this risk.
Fan Zhibao knew what they were worried about. He said solemnly, “Don’t worry. If the higher-ups hold you accountable, I promise I won’t let anything happen to you.”
The two of them were still hesitant.
Seeing this, Fan Zhibao took out two more storage bags, each containing 100 supreme-grade spirit stones.
“Senior Brother, don’t be like this.” The two of them shook their heads repeatedly, but their bodies were very honest.
“Oh no! My clothes are still drying outside. It’s going to rain heavily today. I can’t let my precious clothes get drenched.”
One of them suddenly patted his thigh and said,
“Now that you mention it, I haven’t fed my Immortal Beast yet. I spent a lot of money to buy it. It would be troublesome if I let it starve.”
The other person also added.
“Um, Senior Brother Fan, we both have urgent matters. We’ll be back soon. Please help us watch over things here first,” said the two anxiously.
Fan Zhibao cooperated with them. “Junior Brothers, you guys go ahead. With me here, you don’t have to worry.”
“Thank you, Senior Brother.”
With that, the two of them ran out of the door in a panic.
After they left, only Qin Chuan and Fan Zhibao were left in the torture chamber.
Fan Zhibao picked up the two maces.
Clang clang clang!
He knocked on the two maces in front of Qin Chuan. “Zhu Xiaoming, the two brothers from the disciplinary office, seemed quite gentle just now. If it were me, I wouldn’t be like them.
“If you kneel down and beg for mercy now, I’ll hold back a little.
“How about that? Consider it!”
Qin Chuan ignored him and continued whistling as though his words were wind passing the ear.
“Hmph! You refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit. Let’s see how long you can last.”
Fan Zhibao’s expression turned solemn. He quickly circulated his dharmic powers, raised the maces high, and ruthlessly slammed them on Qin Chuan’s butt.
Pa!
This time, the resulting sound was much louder compared to earlier.
Fan Zhibao didn’t use too much strength. If he killed Qin Chuan, he would be in trouble.
He only wanted to vent the anger in his heart and force Qin Chuan to beg for mercy.
Such a blow had indeed caused some injury to Qin Chuan. However, it was only a little pain, nothing serious. He continued to whistle.
Seeing that there was no change, Fan Zhibao continued hitting him.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The sound got louder each time.
Qin Chuan’s whistle was loud and clear, and it sounded even more cheerful.
The more Fan Zhibao struck, the more alarmed he became. His expression became grave.
This time, he was the one who was executing the punishment. He had definitely used a good amount of strength.
But Qin Chuan seemed absolutely fine.
He suspected that Qin Chuan had tampered with the maces and the long stool.
Just as he was about to continue, Qin Chuan spoke.
“Senior Brother Fan, 200 strikes have been completed. Shouldn’t you stop?”
Fan Zhibao was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, “It ended so quickly?”
He couldn’t help but feel that that was too fast.
At this moment, the two disciples returned.
The two of them naturally took the maces from Fan Zhibao’s hands.
A string of digits appeared on the handle of the maces.
The number stated was the number of hits, and it was 200.
“Senior Brother, the elders are coming over to check later. I’m afraid it’s not suitable for you to be here,” said one of them.
“It’s fine. I’ve already let them know.”
Not long after, an elder walked in.
The elder glanced at Fan Zhibao but said nothing
The two disciples handed over the maces. “Elder, 200 strikes have been completed.”
The elder took the mace, glanced at the number, and put it away in his storage ring.
He came to Qin Chuan’s side and murmured something. The long stool under Qin Chuan suddenly lit up.
The elder said, “You can get up now.’
Qin Chuan stood up, patted his clothes, and bowed to the elder. “Greetings, Elder.”
The elder scrutinized Qin Chuan for a while, then turned to look at the two disciples.
“Did you use strength?” asked the elder.
The two of them knew what the elder wanted to ask and said seriously, “Elder, we really used strength. We still have the marks left behind when we held the mace in our hands.”
With that, they opened their palms for the elders to examine.
There were indeed marks on their palms.
From the sound earlier, it could be deduced that they had indeed used a lot of strength.
The elder did not check. The two maces had already given him the answer.
However, he found it hard to believe that Qin Chuan could remain unscathed after suffering 200 strikes.
“I couldn’t tell that you were still a body cultivator. Your body is well-trained!” the elder said to Qin Chuan. It sounded like praise but also seemed to carry a hidden meaning.
Qin Chuan bowed slightly with his hands clasped. “I have only learned a little.
“I also have to thank these two senior brothers. Perhaps it’s because they haven’t eaten today. If they had used a little more force, I might not have been able to take it.”
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the two disciples turned rather ugly.
Of course, they really didn’t use much strength.
After all, a punishment like flopping could really kill. If that happened, the two of them would definitely be responsible.
“The punishment for you has ended. I hope you can learn your lesson and not commit any more crimes in the future,” said the elder
mo
“Yes. From now on, I will abide by the rules and be a good disciple of the Luo Ding Sect,” said Qin Chuan solemnly.
“I hope so,” said the elder coldly. “Then you may leave.”
“Senior Brother Fan, I’m leaving. Do you still want to follow me?”
Qin Chuan came to the door, turned around, and waved at Fan Zhibao.
Fan Zhibao’s expression was ugly. Instead of being vented, his anger was growing.
After Qin Chuan left, the elder sent two disciples of the disciplinary office away.
“Zhibao, I only allowed you to appear here today because of Elder Chen Feng. I hope that such a thing will never happen again.
“If that disciple were to report this to the other elders outside, things would become very troublesome,” said the elder in a deep voice.
Fan Zhibao bowed and said, “Don’t worry, Elder. I guarantee that he won’t spout nonsense.
“Everyone knows that going against the disciplinary office is just asking for a beating!
“I hope so!”
The elder said, “I’ve heard about your matter too. Don’t be so rash in the future. “You should restrain yourself for now. After the wind blows over, you can return to the Elder office to take on your appointment.”
Fan Zhibao bowed and said, “Yes, I understand!”
“Elder, if there’s nothing else, I will take my leave.”
“Go!”
A few days passed peacefully.
As the saying goes, two may keep counsel, putting one away.
The conflict between Fan Zhibao and Qin Chuan was leaked out by some disciples.
It was said that it was over a woman…
Cultivation was a very dull thing, to begin with. That gossip caused an uproar in the circle of disciples.
The news spread like wildfire. As it went on, the stories became more and more ridiculous.
