The dean insisted, "Please take a seat young lady."
"Those are all my thanks to Courtyard." Hua Ruge said as he sat down at the foot of the hall.
The Headmaster walked back to his table, looked at Penetrating Sea and said, "As the chief, you actually avenged a personal grudge between us, and from today onwards, you will be expelled from the academy. You will not be allowed to take away any items."
To the people of the academy, banishment was the most brutal method. This was because it would be recorded down and he would not receive any important points from the country in the future.
Furthermore, he was not allowed to take anything with him. Once he left, he would become a pauper.
With a 'putong' sound, Penetrating Sea kneeled on the ground and said: "Lord Courtyard has shown me kindness, I am willing to accept punishment, please be magnanimous and not expel me."
He couldn't stand such disgrace and humiliation, no matter how glorious his Sky Mansion Academy was.
"Someone, drag him out." The Courtyard said in a stern voice. There was no room at all.
However, Hua Ruge was the head disciple of Danyang Peak, so naturally, he would give himself some face if he were to come to the Law Enforcement Hall for the first time.
Hua Ruge smiled as he expressed his thanks and then left with his 200 over pill masters.
Courtyard, who looked as if he did not have any reaction, wiped his sweat. The Fellow at the side hurriedly handed over a handkerchief and said, "Headmaster, this is also a sixteen or seventeen year old child. Why did you choose her as your first seat?"
"If even you know, you will be the first one to get the Danyang Peak." Courtyard squinted his eyes.
Fellow asked recklessly, "Does Courtyard know about this?"
"Nonsense, if I knew, why would I have a grudge?" Courtyard threw the handkerchief to him and left in a rage.
Fellow Liu muttered on the spot, "You're still talking about me even if you don't know."
Outside, Penetrating Sea had been forced down the mountain by the Disciplinary Committee. They still wanted to force him to return to his mountain peak and chase away all his belongings.
Seeing that he had nothing to do, the red-clothed Master Matter bid farewell to Hua Ruge and ran off.
Hua Ruge spoke to the two scholars from the Disciplinary Committee, "Since we are here to chase him away, can the two of you please leave him and me alone for a while?"
The Fellow knew about Hua Ruge's identity, how could he dare say no, he immediately nodded: "Please do as you wish."
After saying this, the two of them automatically retreated a dozen steps.
On the side, Hua Ruge turned to the pill masters and asked, "Which senior has a cripple's cultivation pill, I am willing to use the Source Spirit Pill to exchange."
As she spoke, she took out the Source Spirit Pill she had been participating in.
This Yuan Spirit Pill was one of the more difficult pills. With the power of this pill, it would be easy for Hua Ruge to raise a person's cultivation in a year's time.
However, a poisonous pill was relatively easier to refine. Someone then took out a small red bottle and said, "I refined this pill. Not only can it cripple cultivation, it can also damage meridians, making it impossible for people to cultivate."
"Deal." Hua Ruge threw his own pill over, and then took out a small red bottle and poured out a pill.
Penetrating Sea retreated continuously, his entire body trembling as he said, "Don't act recklessly, this is still within the academy."
"Either you eat it yourself and leave behind your life, or I will take your life." Hua Ruge looked at him with unquestionable eyes and said, "There is nothing in this world that I do not dare to do. You are already a cripple who has been expelled, so even if I were to kill you at the foot of the mountain of the Disciplinary Committee, no one would care."
Penetrating Sea knew that it was the truth. After all, Hua Ruge's current identity was different from the others, so it would not be difficult to kill him.
Hua Ruge was very concerned about his difficult situation before. She asked with an unfriendly expression: "I'll ask you again, are you going to live or die?"
Fear appeared on Penetrating Sea's face.
"Yes." Hua Ruge said as he handed the pill over to him.
His entire face was deathly pale, but he still didn't think about whether or not it would taste good.
"This pill is very precious. I will only give you three counts of time." Hua Ruge said as he extended three of his fingers, and said a few words:
"Three!"
Penetrating Sea's body trembled even more violently, because he was very sure that Hua Ruge was not joking.
"Two!"
Hua Ruge retracted his finger and became even louder.
Penetrating Sea knew that he could not hope for anymore, and could only choose one between life and death.
"One!"
Hua Ruge's expression turned cold when he counted to this point, and his Penetrating Sea nearly subconsciously swallowed the medicinal pellet.
As long as he was alive, that was hope. If he died, he would have nothing left.
"If you don't eat it, I might respectfully spare your life." Hua Ruge pursed her lips without a smile, looked at him who was filled with unwillingness, and said: "You lost to yourself."
Hearing this, Penetrating Sea's face flushed red, he opened his mouth and retched, attempting to vomit out the pill.
However, the pill melted the moment it entered his mouth, and the effects of the pill had already spread to his limbs and bones. How could he still spit it out?
But he just wasn't willing to accept it. He kept retching and trying to find an opportunity.
When the pill refiners saw this, they all took in a breath of cold air. Hua Ruge's move was simply too ruthless.
This person would definitely be driven mad by him in the future.
As for the words Hua Ruge said that she might let him off, whether or not it was true, was no longer important. What was important was the believe in Penetrating Sea.
He didn't have the choice to believe it, because it was the only hope he had. And the price for believing was to constantly despise and torture himself.
Penetrating Sea fell lifelessly onto the ground, constantly vomiting. His complicated gaze gradually became fixed on unwillingness, an eternal unwillingness.
The Fellow knew that it was time, so he dragged him away while he was still alive.
Hua Ruge no longer wanted to care about this pile of mud. Turning around, he said to the pill refiners: "Today's matter is thanks to the various seniors, I will treat everyone to a drink another day."
All the pill refiners expressed that everyone was a disciple of the same faction, so there was no need to be polite.
Hua Ruge naturally thanked him anyway.
As a result, the atmosphere became more harmonious, and the crowd slowly dispersed under this atmosphere.
Hua Ruge looked at the jade pendant on his waist and thought about his day's experience. Suddenly, he laughed out loud, the smile was clear and bright, bringing along the excitement of a young lady.
He had prepared so much for this Pill Refiner's Apothecary Competition, and it was worth it.
It was already evening, and she knew that she would have to move up to the Danyang Peak in the future.
There were fewer people on the way to the Outer Academy. It was already evening, and as Hua Ruge bathed in the sunset, he felt especially peaceful.
As she walked, her smile gradually faded until it disappeared.
Every time he was alone, Hua Ruge's heart would feel full and empty.
He thought it was because there was a person living there.
She felt empty because even now, no one had told her whether she had made the right or wrong choice that day.
She wasn't afraid of doing everything she could, of falling down and getting hurt. She was only afraid that he wouldn't wait for her.
She shook her head to stop herself from thinking too much. She reached out to stroke the Dragon Mark Ring on her hands and sniffed: "I'm working hard, you must wait for me. Otherwise, you better not be jealous if you go with others."
As she spoke, she continued to walk forward. The setting sun cast a long shadow around her. Her steps were light and light, and her voice sounded a little mischievous.
"You are so petty, how could you not be jealous? But you also can't bear for me to live my entire life, so ?" Tuoba Rui, you have to wait for me. "
