110: abuse

On the other side, changes occurred in Chess Sword Pavilion. Nangong Li's entire body was burned, and she barely survived thanks to the Sect's Spirit Medicine.

However, due to her severe injuries, she was unable to handle the Sect's daily affairs, so her position as Sect Master naturally could not be maintained.

With the intervention of Grand Elder Clear Moon, the position of Sect Master was temporarily assumed by Lord Youyang.

As for Nangong Li, she was escorted by Lu Qingyi to Medicine King Glazed Valley in the Spirit Realm for recuperation. She could only return to Chess Sword Pavilion when her injuries and cultivation recovered.

Because Nangong Li's injuries were extremely severe and she couldn't use Spiritual Artifacts to speed up their journey, Lu Qingyi and the other Disciples could only place Nangong Li in a wheelchair and push her slowly towards the Spirit Realm.

Seeing her former Revered Master now fallen from power and in such a crippled state, Lu Qingyi's gaze towards her was no longer respectful and adoring, but filled with strong disdain and disgust.

On the fifth day after leaving Chess Sword Pavilion, Lu Qingyi simply dropped her pretense, walking ahead by herself and no longer actively pushing the wheelchair.

"Qingyi, walk slower. This Revered Master can't keep up."

Nangong Li's voice was hoarse, no longer possessing its former sweetness.

Seeing Lu Qingyi's indifferent attitude, she understood her Disciple's thoughts but could only feel helpless.

Lu Qingyi looked back and said to the Disciple behind Nangong Li, "Push faster. There are still tens of thousands of miles to the Spirit Realm,

If we walk like this, it might take years to get there. If we delay our cultivation, only we will suffer!"

After speaking, she gave Nangong Li another disdainful look, her eyes full of mockery.

Nangong Li's heart turned cold. She naturally knew her Disciple's character, but what could she do now?

It was precisely because Lu Qingyi's words were pleasant and easily made her happy that she accepted Lu Qingyi as a Disciple back then.

Who would have thought that her life would suffer such a huge change?

At sunset, the group arrived at a dense forest, intending to rest there temporarily.

"I'm exhausted."

Upon reaching the campsite, the two Disciples who had been pushing the wheelchair also felt aches in their backs and waists.

Because Cultivators were accustomed to using Spiritual Artifacts for travel, they hadn't walked such a long distance on foot for a long time, so they were all unaccustomed to it.

"Go gather some firewood for a bonfire, and prepare some Spirit Fruits. We'll make do tonight, and when we reach Qingshan Town tomorrow, we can rest well for two days."

"Yes, Senior Sister."

The two Disciples also felt a wave of disgust towards Nangong Li and had been following Lu Qingyi's instructions all along.

While the two were busy, Lu Qingyi sat on a clean rock and took out Spirit Spring water to drink.

Nangong Li was also parched. Seeing Lu Qingyi drink water, she couldn't help but say, "Qingyi, this Revered Master is thirsty. Give this Revered Master a sip of water."

Lu Qingyi acted as if she hadn't heard, only continuing to pour the Spirit Spring water into her own mouth.

"Qingyi, this Revered Master is thirsty."

"Qingyi, let this Revered Master have a sip."

Nangong Li was genuinely thirsty. Seeing Lu Qingyi ignore her, she began to call out repeatedly.

She kept calling until Lu Qingyi became annoyed, who then interrupted her, "So annoying! Can't even drink water in peace!"

With that, she directly threw the waterskin onto Nangong Li's body.

"Ah~"

Her burned body suffered this slight impact, causing Nangong Li to cry out in pain.

She endured the physical pain, her bandaged hands grabbing the waterskin, wanting to pour it into her mouth.

However, as soon as she moved, her damaged skin instantly became unbearably painful, and she couldn't hold on, dropping the waterskin to the ground.

"trash, what good are you!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Qingyi was so angry that she burst into curses, taking a step forward to grab the waterskin from the ground.

"Look at you, you can't even hold a waterskin steady. How much good Spirit Spring water have you wasted just like that?"

Being scolded by Lu Qingyi, Nangong Li's pupils constricted in shock. For a moment, she forgot her current predicament and couldn't help but retort, "Qingyi, what is this attitude? I am your Revered Master, you cannot treat me like this."

"Revered Master?"

Lu Qingyi sneered upon hearing this, scrutinizing Nangong Li from head to toe, then shook her head.

"Look at you now, are you still the Sect Master of Chess Sword Pavilion who captivated countless beings and had innumerable men prostrate at her feet? Hahahaha..."

She couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the sound of her laughter was so jarring to Nangong Li's ears.

"Do you want to get a mirror and see what you look like now? You, in this state, are still worthy of being my, Lu Qingyi's, Revered Master? Bah, how disgusting!"

A mouthful of spit landed mercilessly on Nangong Li's bandaged face.

At this moment, Nangong Li completely broke down, screaming hoarsely, "Lu Qingyi, why are you doing this to me?

I've always treated you so well. I never blamed you for the many mistakes you made. Knowing you were at odds with Su Mengyao, I even specifically helped you suppress her.

In the end, this is how you repay me? I must have been blind!"

"Shut up, ugly monster!"

Lu Qingyi sharply interrupted her, her eyes full of disdain and impatience.

"What's the use of saying so much now? It's true I bullied Su Mengyao, but weren't you the same?

Back then, you were afraid that Su Mengyao's achievements in the Dao of the Sword would surpass yours, which is why you repeatedly made things difficult for her in the Sect.

Now you're blaming it all on me? Heh, you say you were good to me, but wasn't it because you liked to hear flattery?

We both got what we wanted. You don't need to act so noble as if I owe you something. We merely took what we needed.

Moreover, in all these years I've been your Disciple, I always wanted to learn Innate Sword Intent, but you wouldn't even reveal half a word to me.

Did you truly treat me as your Disciple? You only treated me as a maidservant, to be summoned and dismissed at your whim."

Nangong Li's chest heaved with anger upon hearing this.

"Rebellious Disciple, truly a Rebellious Disciple! I treated you so well, yet you repay kindness with enmity..."

"I repay kindness with enmity?"

Lu Qingyi suddenly smiled, then put on a gentle smile.

This smile made Nangong Li's scalp tingle.

"My good Revered Master, how can you think of me that way? Didn't you want water? Then let me, your Disciple, personally feed you!"

With that, she directly splashed the Spirit Spring water onto Nangong Li.

"No, stop, what are you doing?"

Nangong Li immediately flailed her limbs, and soon the bandages wrapped around her body began to seep blood due to her violent movements.

"Good Revered Master, I know you're thirsty, so I'm feeding you water. See how filial your Disciple is, hahaha!"

By the time the entire bag of water was splashed, Nangong Li, sitting in the wheelchair, was completely drenched.

Unfortunately, her current body, even if stripped bare for others to see, would probably make a husky directly follow the 'NoFap' movement.

"Hahahahaha!"

Looking at Nangong Li's current appearance, Lu Qingyi revealed a crazed and sinister smile.

"Ah—"

Nangong Li, on the other hand, endured the intense pain from all over her body, coupled with her inner sorrow, letting out a hoarse, ghostly roar.

"Ugly monster, if you don't want to suffer on this journey, then behave yourself, otherwise I will make your life worse than death, do you hear me!"

Leaving that remark, Lu Qingyi turned around, took out a tent from her storage ring, and walked into it alone, no longer paying any attention to Nangong Li.

Nangong Li could only sit alone in her wheelchair, crying heartbreakingly.

"Why, how did things come to this..."
