Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

He Bu Si wasn't a fool. After seeing the hint of mockery and arrogance in Li Qianyun's eyes, he understood everything.

Meditating for a moment, He Bu Si's eyes flickered slightly as he said, "Niece Qianyun, although I can understand your feelings, you did make a mistake just now, so I must punish you. Are you willing to accept the punishment?"

"What?"

Hearing He Bu Si say he was going to punish her, Li Qianyun's beautiful eyes widened. Instinctively, she wanted to argue, but He Bu Si's expression suddenly turned gloomy, and he coldly swept a glance at her.

Caught by He Bu Si's icy gaze, the words that had just reached Li Qianyun's lips instantly went back down. After a helpless sigh, she nodded and said, "Alright, I'm willing to accept the punishment."

Seeing Li Qianyun's expression, He Bu Si nodded with satisfaction. Then, he murmured and said, "How about this, I'll punish you to lower your head and bow to Fellow Daoist Yang to apologize, and then this matter will be considered over."

"What? Make me lower my head and bow to him?"

Hearing He Bu Si's punishment, Li Qianyun was once again shocked.

She had already prepared herself to pay with elixirs, magical treasures, or even immortal crystal stones, but she never expected that He Bu Si would actually ask her to lower her head and bow to Chen Tian.

For Li Qianyun, who had always been conceited and arrogant, this was something she could never do.

Some people regard money as dirt, but regard dignity as life. They would rather spend tens of thousands of gold coins than bow their heads to others.

This Li Qianyun belonged to this kind of person.

It could be said that from childhood to adulthood, she had never apologized to anyone, let alone lowered her head and bowed.

And this Chen Tian was her first!

Although Li Qianyun had to do this under He Bu Si's coercion, in her heart, her hatred for Chen Tian grew even stronger.

At this time, Li Qianyun had already slashed Chen Tian into tens of thousands of pieces in her heart, because it was Chen Tian who had severely defiled her most cherished dignity!

For Li Qianyun, who had always regarded herself as noble and pure, this was the greatest humiliation in her life!

However, when Chen Tian saw Li Qianyun bowing her head to him, there was no sympathy on his face. Instead, he said coldly, "Forget it, I'll spare you this time, but if you commit it again next time, I will definitely kill you. Do you understand?"

Chen Tian's words were spoken in a condescending tone, full of mockery.

After hearing this, Li Qianyun was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

She really didn't expect that Chen Tian would dare to take the opportunity to insult her, which made her self-esteem suffer a second blow.

At this time, Li Qianyun's originally charming face couldn't help but become hideous and sinister, her fists clenched tightly, her veins bulging, as if she couldn't bear it and was about to explode.

Seeing this, He Bu Si hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Now that Niece Qianyun has realized her mistake and apologized to Fellow Daoist Yang, then please both of you put this matter behind you for my sake, how about it?"

At this time, He Bu Si was completely acting as a peacemaker.

Hearing this, Li Qianyun didn't wait for Chen Tian to respond. After a cold snort, she walked aside alone, muttering to herself, not knowing what she was muttering.

But looking at her sinister look, it must not be anything good.

Chen Tian ignored her and withdrew his gaze, looking at He Bu Si thoughtfully.

It could be said that from the beginning, every move between the two of them was led by this He Bu Si. It could be said that everything was under his control.

Especially when he mentioned punishing Li Qianyun just now, He Bu Si neither asked Li Qianyun to compensate for the elixir nor asked her to compensate for the magical treasure, but actually asked Li Qianyun to lower her head and bow to Chen Tian.

Logically speaking, He Bu Si knew Li Qianyun, so he naturally knew that Li Qianyun valued her self-esteem more than anything else.

At this time, asking her to lower her head to Chen Tian was tantamount to severely insulting Li Qianyun and deepening the contradiction and hostility between the two.

On the surface, he was trying to calm the matter, but in reality, this He Bu Si was adding fuel to the fire. Not only did he not alleviate the contradiction between the two, but it became even more intense.

Chen Tian really couldn't figure out why a person with such a delicate mind would make such a low-level mistake.

Therefore, Chen Tian believed that He Bu Si must have had ulterior motives for choosing such a terrible way of apologizing.

He Bu Si didn't care whether Chen Tian and Li Qianyun could reconcile as before. His real purpose was to make their relationship worse.

Thinking of this, a sneer flashed in Chen Tian's heart.

It had to be said that this He Bu Si was indeed an extremely clever person. He knew that Chen Tian and Li Qianyun both possessed extraordinary strength, and if the two of them joined forces, he would not be able to suppress them at all.

Therefore, only by making the two of them hate and despise each other could it be beneficial to his control.

To put it bluntly, He Bu Si was doing all this just for safety. He didn't want Chen Tian and Li Qianyun to secretly join forces during the treasure hunt later, which would pose a threat to him.

Therefore, after worsening the relationship between the two in advance, he would no longer have any worries.

'This old fox!'

After figuring out everything, Chen Tian couldn't help but cursed inwardly.
