My Master Knows It All

195: Chapter 127: Unexpected Focus_6 195: Chapter 127: Unexpected Focus_6 He didn’t care whether it was Cao Zhen who made the move; as long as Cao Zhen was involved, directing the problem towards him was without a mistake.

As for the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks, initially, the senior brothers from Little Zen Peak spoke only of Cao Zhen and didn’t mention the other Five Evils.

He had no need to offend the rest.

Offend Cao Zhen?

So what if he offended Cao Zhen?

This time, he had managed to please Little Zen Peak, as well as Elder Shen, who had just been left speechless by Cao Zhen, and the present Immortal Li Ke.

Offending one Cao Zhen to favor so many others was worth it!

Li Ke acted as though she hadn’t heard Liu Zhixing’s words, as if she hadn’t seen him at all, and completely ignored him.

She walked up to Cao Zhen’s side and pointed at him, saying, “Didn’t you just ask me who that person is?

It’s him, Cao Zhen.”

As Li Ke spoke, she glared fiercely at Cao Zhen.

This guy had caused trouble on her peak, and now she had to handle his mess, all the while she had just forcefully given him two hundred thousand Spirit Stones!

I shouldn’t have given him even a single Spirit Stone.

If he didn’t agree, I simply wouldn’t have helped him out.

But now, it was all too late.

The crowd around was confused upon hearing Li Ke’s words.

What’s going on?

Who is he talking about?

What trouble has Cao Zhen stirred up now?

Tu Zhuque had just been eager to demand justice but suddenly froze at Li Ke’s words, his demeanor instantly turning sour.

Li Ke, she couldn’t possibly mean…

Chen Qingluan looked incredulously at Li Ke and then at Cao Zhen, somewhat unable to believe what she had just heard.

Li Ke and Cao Zhen?

These two were worlds apart; how could that be possible?

Yet, Li Ke had said it herself…

If this were true, it would be very interesting indeed.

In a rush, Chen Qingluan asked, “Niece Li Ke, when you say ‘he’, which ‘he’ are you talking about?”

Without any hint of coyness, Li Ke answered directly, “The companion I have been seeking is none other than him.”

As her words fell, an uproar ensued all around.

Throughout the entire banquet, almost everyone couldn’t believe their own ears and suspected they were under some illusion technique.

Li Ke was the prodigy of the Top Ten Peaks and a divine presence on the favored rankings of the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty, a pride of the heavens with ten Perfect Completion Golden Cores, each accompanied by its own anomaly.

What about Cao Zhen?

A Peak Master from the lowest-ranked peak within the Hundred Peaks Sect.

Although in recent days the sect showed signs of rising, compared to Li Ke, it was like heaven and earth apart.

Not to mention, Cao Zhen’s reputation had been increasingly tarnished.

How could Immortal Li Ke take an interest in him?

What was there to like about him?

Tu Zhuque felt darkness encroaching and his chest tightening, his heart aching and his lungs seemed ready to burst.

Li Ke had actually picked Cao Zhen, of all people—him!

Could Cao Zhen be worthy of her?

Was he fit for her?

Beichen Ying, however, was the first to react.

He called out to the other three Evils, “How about that?

I told you Little Sixth Son would cut it, right?

The man who silently makes a fortune and works diligently is someone who could win the day’s protagonist without anyone noticing.”

“Just now you might not have seen it, but I did, Li Ke even glared at Little Sixth Son, which must mean the couple were flirting with each other, annoyed that Little Sixth Son was causing a fuss at her Golden Core Club celebration.”

As he spoke, he turned his head to Li Ke and said, “Junior sister, let me tell you, it wasn’t us who started it—it was Han ZiXia who first attacked Little Sixth Son.

We can all vouch for that.

Because it was your Golden Core Club, Little Sixth Son didn’t even fight back.

As for that guy, he’s talking nonsense!”

While speaking, BeiChen Ying even pointed at Liu Zhixing with a fierce look.

Liu Zhixing was stunned.

How had Cao Zhen become Immortal Li Ke’s partner?

How could the two of them possibly be together?

No, that’s not right—the expression on Chief Tu’s face is very ugly, which means Chief Tu doesn’t know about this.

There might still be hope for himself.

If he exposes Cao Zhen, he might even attract Chief Tu’s favorable impression.

Liu Zhixing saw the light again, calling out to Li Ke, “Immortal Li Ke, you…

you might have been deceived by him.

With your heart set on cultivation, you might not know what kind of person Cao Zhen is.

Cao Zhen has been deceiving our fellow disciples of the Hundred Peaks Sect with a Divine Weapon, tricking them out of their Spirit Stones.

Furthermore, he has been constantly with the Five Evils of Hundred Peaks just now, and they have accepted him, calling him Little Sixth Brother.

He is now one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils!

Such a person is simply not worthy of you.”

“Are you done?” Li Ke just looked at Liu Zhixing quietly and pointed towards the outside with her hand, “Once you’re done, please leave on your own.

Vermilion Bird Peak does not welcome you.”

“Ah?” Liu Zhixing was completely dumbfounded.

Didn’t you hear what I’ve just said?

Cao Zhen is now one of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils—how can you choose him as your partner!

“Can’t understand?

Do you really want me to take action myself?” Li Ke’s eyebrows tightly furrowed.

She had finally found someone to cooperate with her in this play, and here Liu Zhixing jumps out, saying all kinds of bad things about Cao Zhen.

Wasn’t he just stirring up trouble for her?

“Junior niece Li Ke, on such a joyous day, we shouldn’t be talking about getting physical,” Chen Qingluan timely stepped forward to shield Liu Zhixing, finding it interesting—truly interesting—that Li Ke’s chosen partner was actually Cao Zhen.

Chief Tu, aren’t you always striving to be strong, never to be outdone by others?

Quickly look at the partner I’ve found for my disciple—who else but Shi Xiaolou, the up-and-coming talent of the Four Extremes Sect.

And look at Li Ke’s partner—the latest of the Hundred Peaks Six Evils.

What does Cao Zhen have to compare with Shi Xiaolou?

Chief Tu, I hope you don’t burst from rage.

Suddenly, it struck her, and she raised her voice deliberately, “I remember now, the day when the Sect Leader summoned us Peak Masters of Hundred Peaks to discuss matters, Chief Tu, you said that the partner Li Ke found was extremely outstanding.

I even said back then, ‘As long as the person isn’t as ‘outstanding’ as Peak Master Cao, it would be good.’ I never thought I would have this ability to predict the future, that I really hit the nail on the head.”

Chief Tu was about to explode with anger.

Of course, she remembered what Chen Qingluan had said back then.

Who would have thought that the person Li Ke brought out would really be ‘as outstanding’ as Cao Zhen!

Could it be any different?

That was the very same person!

On the side, Shi Xiaolou, who had been listening to the conversation, laughed, “It seems we’re quite fated with Peak Master Cao.

Just now, someone said that Peak Master Cao’s calligraphy is unmatched in this world.

Unexpectedly, Peak Master Cao is right here, and he is Immortal Li Ke’s partner.

I wonder if I might have the honor of seeing that calligraphy, which makes the Dao of Calligraphy last through the eternal night?”
