The entire hall fell silent, everyone stunned by the scene.
Chen Mu's body trembled slightly, her jaw almost hitting the floor.
In her eyes, Yang Zhi was a master who could save her son!
Yet, such a master was being toyed with like a plaything by Wu Tian. This was too much of a shock for her.
Yang Zhi himself was so terrified that his soul had almost left his body.
At this moment, he couldn't even bother with his own predicament, but instead looked at Wu Tian with a face full of fear and asked, "You... what do you want to do?"
Wu Tian said coldly, "I recall certain people mentioning they wanted to cut off one of my hands, right?"
"I'm a person who holds grudges, so whatever you wanted to do to me, I'll do to you."
With that, Wu Tian slowly moved his long sword, then pointed the tip at Yang Zhi's shoulder.
Yang Zhi felt his heart about to explode.
His Gale Swordplay was his capital for showing off. If Wu Tian were to cripple his right hand, how would he wield a sword in the future!
Therefore, at this moment, he could no longer care about his pride and frantically said to Wu Tian, "Please spare me, please, please spare me!"
"I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have provoked you, I'll never dare to do it again!"
Seeing his cowardly demeanor, Wu Tian said, "Weren't you quite confident just now? Why are you begging for mercy now?"
"Don't say things like that, it makes me very scared!"
Yang Zhi knew that Wu Tian was mocking him.
But what could he do? He couldn't fight back, so in the end, he could only yield.
So he continued to beg, "It was my fault for not recognizing you, it's all my fault, just let me go like I'm nothing."
"Please, I beg you!"
Wu Tian said, "Beg me? Is this how you beg someone?"
"If it's just like this, then honestly, I can't accept this kind of attitude!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Zhi's limbs moved directly.
He scrambled up and knelt directly before Wu Tian, kowtowing and begging for mercy, "I kowtow to you, I kowtow to you!"
"I admit, everything I did was with ulterior motives. I never intended to save anyone, I just... just used this opportunity to sleep with Miss Chen!"
"I know this is a very despicable act, I won't dare to do such a thing again!"
Wu Tian looked at Chen Mu and said, "Auntie, do you see this person's true colors now?"
Chen Mu was stunned, and then a wave of fear washed over her.
If Yang Zhi had succeeded, wouldn't she have been deceived?
At that moment, she also felt extremely angry and glared at Yang Zhi, saying, "You are so uncivilized, how could you do such a thing?"
"I trusted you so much, you've really disappointed me!"
Yang Zhi couldn't care about anything else anymore, he kept admitting, "Yes, yes, yes, I'm uncivilized, I'm not human, I'm a beast!"
"Don't argue with an animal, just let me go!"
Wu Tian's original intention was just to expose Yang Zhi. Now he still had to save someone, so he didn't have time to mess around with Yang Zhi here.
He said, "I can let you go this time, but you are not allowed to do such things in the future."
"If I catch you doing this again, then I'm sorry, not only will I cripple you, but I will make your life worse than death. Do you understand?"
Yang Zhi was terrified and quickly said, "I understand, I understand, don't worry, I absolutely will not do this again, I swear!"
Wu Tian threw his long sword at him and said indifferently, "Alright, then get out of here quickly!"
Yang Zhi felt as if he had been granted a great amnesty. At this moment, he dared not linger here any longer, and fled in utter panic.
After he left, Chen Mu said with a face full of shame, "Wu Tian, thank you so much this time."
"If it weren't for you, I would have made a big mistake!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Auntie, it's nothing. I know you were too anxious, and it's understandable."
"But don't worry, with me here, nothing will go wrong. I will bring your uncle back."
Chen Qinglian said worriedly, "Wu Tian, can you really do it?"
"How about this, on behalf of the Medical School of Qinglian Sect, I'll recruit some more helpers. Wouldn't it be easier to get things done with more people?"
Wu Tian shook his head and said, "No need. I prefer to work alone."
"Having too many people would be a burden to me."
"You can come with me later, no one else is needed. Just wait for news at home."
Chen Qinglian quickly said, "Ah? That's not good, is it?"
"I don't mind, but the Sword Sect is full of experts. If you go in alone, it might not be feasible!"
"What if you encounter any danger? I would feel guilty for the rest of my life!"
From Chen Qinglian's eyes, Wu Tian could see that this girl was genuinely worried about him.
He smiled and said, "Just trust me, if I say I can, I can."
"If I hadn't taught that scoundrel a lesson just now, I would have already rescued your father!"
Chen Qinglian felt that Wu Tian's words were too domineering.
She didn't understand how Wu Tian could have such great confidence, daring to confront the entire Sword Sect alone.
Yang Zhi was just trying to steal chickens and dogs, but Wu Tian was not that kind of person. Could he really do all this?
Chen Qinglian's heart was filled with confusion.
But since Wu Tian's attitude was so resolute, she knew that no matter how much she said, it would be useless.
So she could only nod and say, "Alright, then I'll take you there."
"But we have to agree first, if there's any real danger, you must run."
"It doesn't matter about me, even if they catch me, they won't dare to do anything to me."
Wu Tian said, "I know, then let's hurry."
Afterward, Chen Qinglian took Wu Tian towards the Sword Sect of Qinglian Sect.
Although the Medical School was located in the city, the Sword Sect was situated on a mountain.
The Sword Sect had enclosed a large area on the mountain. Looking inside from the towering walls, one could see many buildings erected.
Wu Tian and Chen Qinglian chose to enter through the main gate. However, as soon as they reached the plaza in front of the gate, they saw that someone was already waiting in the center of the plaza.
The person was holding a sword. Seeing them arrive, he immediately took two steps towards them and smiled.
"Chen Qinglian, you're finally here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."
