Chapter 57 -53: Country Bumpkin Gets Beaten Up
Qiao Haoyu had only heard about it from Dongfang Tang, unaware of his plan.
After being scolded by his father, Haoyu was very angry.
He swiftly sent his attendant, named Little Four, to find out what happened.
Little Four returned quickly, saying, “Indeed, Dongfang Tang brought a few people and beat up Zhan Ze. Last night, after it got dark, they ambushed Zhan Ze by the lakeside corridor, knocking him unconscious.”
“How did this get out?”
“Apparently, that country bumpkin named Ye Chen happened to be by the lake, heard it, rushed over, saw them, recognized Dongfang Tang, and told Feng Nianmei, Su Zhanze’s mother today. Feng Nianmei went straight to Dongfang Tang’s father to reason.”
“What’s the situation with Dongfang Tang now?”
“His father really did beat him severely and confined him for ten days.”
“Damn country bumpkin, causing trouble. I didn’t know anything, yet my dad still scolded me.”
“It’s because Dongfang Tang was too careless and left a trace.”
“Setting off firecrackers and injuring us, yet they all seemed right. On beating him up, he yelled and screamed. Hell, I’m not done with him.” Haoyu rambled.
“I heard Feng Nianmei is very angry, Dongfang Tang’s father can’t lift his head.”
“He wasn’t beaten to death, what’s the big deal.”
“I think it’s best to avoid them for now.”
“Did I provoke them? They provoked me first.” Haoyu murmured: “Damn country bumpkin, I’m not done with him.”
“Boss, what do you plan to do?”
“If I can’t handle Su Zhanze, can’t I handle a country bumpkin!” Furious but with nowhere to vent, Qiao Haoyu shouted, “Keep an eye on where this kid often appears.”
“Now? I don’t think we should make a big scene right now.”
“Hehe, I don’t care making a scene now, the bigger the fuss the better, it’s even better to bring up the firecrackers incident, I’m not afraid of anything now.” Haoyu said.
Little Four said, “Won’t this provoke Zhan Ze.”
“Feng Nianmei might protect her son, but I don’t believe she would stick her neck out for a country bumpkin.” Haoyu shouted: “Find out where this country bumpkin is, I must teach him a lesson.” He had to vent his anger for Dongfang Tang.
“Okay, understood.”
Because of Ye Chen’s identification, Dongfang Tang was beaten and confined for ten days. Haoyu, having been scolded by his father, Qiao Fanfeng, didn’t dare to lift his head. This made Zhan Ze relieved, he was so excited saying, “Let’s see if they dare to mess with me again, never experienced death yet.”
“They got off too easy.” Haitian said: “Ye Chen should have identified more, said that he saw Haoyu that night as well, it would be more fun.”
Young Master Ze laughed: “He’s too timid to do that.”
But they didn’t see Ye Chen in the room.
“Let’s see if they dare to mess with us again in the future.” Jingxing said.
“He’s just too kind to Haoyu.” Haitian said.
“Never mind, this incident has completely boosted our morale.” Zhan Ze chuckled.
“Let’s strip down the arrogant tiger’s fangs then let’s see if he dares to be arrogant in the future.”
That night, when Ye Chen returned from the lakeside to Peach Blossom Forest, suddenly a group of people appeared before and behind him. Ye Chen felt something wasn’t right. His eyelid had been twitching all day. Every time it twitched, his mother would beat him. He had heard about Dongfang Tang being beaten, and he was somewhat unsettled.
Haoyu suddenly appeared from one side, and Ye Chen wanted to escape.
“Want to escape, let’s see where this country bumpkin can run!” Haoyu shouted, “Give him a good beating.” Ye Chen tried to break through from both sides, but another dozen or so people came over. These were not kids from the village. Even though he had learned martial arts, these people’s martial arts were not bad, and some were bigger than him.
He was caught in an instant.
Two slaps came, a punch hit him on the nose, and his nose bled. He was so dazed from the beating. Qiao Haoyu yelled, “What does my issue with Zhan Ze have to do with you, you country bumpkin? It was none of your business, but you had to act the hero and snitch, right!”
There were finger marks on Ye Chen’s face, and his nose was bleeding heavily.
“Give him a good beating.”
Ye Chen could only cover his head, but he didn’t beg for mercy. There were footprints all over his clothes. He was beaten until his mouth was bleeding, too weak to fight back, and collapsed on the ground.
Still unappeased, Haoyu gave him another couple of kicks and barked, “Throw this country bumpkin into the river.”
Not far away, there was a river. The waters of the river slowly flowed. A few people threw him into the river. Ye Chen who gulped down a few mouthfuls of water, quickly crawled back to the riverbank.
Haoyu spit on his face, shouted, “That old woman can protect her son. Let’s see if she’s willing to come out and protect you. Keep snitching, cry and tell them that I hit you. Got it? Let’s see if you still want to stay in Immortal City. Hell! Instead of being a good student, you have to cross me. You’re looking for death!” He gave Ye Chen another kick back into the river.
Ye Chen, pressing his aching back, lay on the riverbank, dare not move a muscle.
“Come again and I’ll have you killed.” Haoyu said angrily. This beating was like a vent to the resentment in his heart. He took his people and left.
Ye Chen lay by the river for a while, washed the blood off his face, seemingly without any complaints. He had anticipated that he might provoke Qiao Haoyu. Perhaps because he had been beaten up, he felt no psychological burden. His entire body felt like his bones had been disassembled. His feet, hands, and chest were all bruised.
He took a deep breath, looked at the sky. His clothes were torn to shreds.
This beating taught him a lesson.
Touching his throbbing face that was numb with pain, he sat there on the grass in a daze.
The water from his clothes continuously dripped down. It would still be a while before nightfall, he couldn’t go home this early. At this time, his mother would still be in the yard. She must be in the yard. He had to wait for a while, until it gets dark.

This beating seemed to have sobered him up quite a bit. Reflecting on everything that had happened since he entered Immortal City, he realized he was becoming more and more out of touch with reality, more and more confused, and truly deserved this beating.
The aching back made it difficult for him to stand straight.
The night gradually darkened, and the surroundings became quiet. At some unknown point, the moon had already risen.
Only then did Ye Chen hurriedly head towards the Pear Blossom Garden where he was staying.
There weren’t many people on the road at this time. The constant chirping of crickets, a song that they found enchanting, seemed a dirge to him.
Glancing at the entrance and confirming that his mother was not in the courtyard, Ye Chen quickly entered, changed his soaked clothes, and tended to his injuries. Unbeknownst to him, the night had already reached its middle.
When he got up the next morning, the injuries on his face were still quite prominent.
His mother was already preparing breakfast and had called out to him twice.
Ye Chen hurriedly stepped out.
Upon looking up, Ye Xue asked, “What happened to your face?”
“I fell while reading as I walked,” he replied.
“What do you mean ‘fell’? I didn’t see you fall. It’s clearly a beat-up face. Who did you get into a fight with?” she asked.
Ye Chen replied seriously, “Mother, please don’t ask.”
“Who hit you?” Ye Xue was somewhat angry.
“Mom, please stop asking, I beg you.” Ye Chen quickly grabbed two buns and a rice dumpling and said, “I’m going to train my martial arts.” He didn’t want to cause any more trouble. He had suffered enough.
Ye Xue tried to stop him but couldn’t. Ye Chen had already run out. He didn’t know what to say to his mother, but he definitely couldn’t continue making mistakes.
“Sit down and finish your meal before leaving.” Ye Xue didn’t ask any further.
“No need.” Ye Chen had already disappeared from view.
Ye Chen had been in pain all night, hardly sleeping. He was in torment.
Eating a bun and nibbling on the rice dumpling, he was unsure where to go. He thought of taking a walk up the mountain, where it would be quiet, and he wouldn’t bump into anyone he knew. The intermittent sound of flowing water could be heard.
He followed the stream and continued forward.
Suddenly, laughter could be heard ahead. A glance revealed a few girls playing by the pavilion. It seemed to be Guo Yuqing and her friends. Ye Chen quickly picked up his pace, wanting to pass as quickly as possible. He didn’t greet them and just kept walking.
However, sharp-eyed Guo Yuqing spotted him and called out, “Ye Chen!”
Ye Chen turned his head back and greeted her.
“Where are you going?” she asked.
“Just taking a walk up the hill,” he answered.
“What happened to your face?”
“Nothing, I just fell into the river.” He quickly turned around and continued towards the hill.
Behind him, Bi Chun called, “Hurry up, we still have our boats!” Apparently, they were racing paper boats along the riverbank to see whose was the fastest.
Yuqing hesitated, feeling uneasy. She put down what she was doing and headed towards the hill.
Shi Zi asked, “Where are you going?”
“You guys go ahead, I’m just going to take a look over there.”
Ye Chen continued to head towards the hill.
Suddenly, he noticed that someone was following him from behind and hurriedly quickened his pace.
Yuqing shouted, “Stop right there, are you trying to avoid me?”
“No,” Ye Chen didn’t seem to want to deal with anyone.
“Then stop. Do you want me to go to your courtyard and find you?”
It was then that Ye Chen slowed down.
Yuqing quickly caught up with him.
Ye Chen stopped by a forest on the hill.
Yuqing leaned over, trying to get a closer look at his face.
Ye Chen attempted to dodge, but failed.
“Did you get this injury by falling?” she asked.
“Yes, I fell down.”
“This obviously isn’t from a fall.” Suddenly remembering the recent events, she recalled the night Zhan Ze was attacked and how Ye Chen had found him. She also heard that Ye Chen had recognized Dongfang Tang, and that Dongfang Tang was beaten by his father. Putting all these pieces together, she asked, “Was it Qiao Haoyu who made you look like this?”
“No, it wasn’t.”
“It couldn’t have been anyone else. It must have been him who beat you up. I’ll go find him.”
Ye Chen stopped her quickly and pleaded, “I beg you, spare me. I really don’t want any more trouble. Please, let me be, sister, Guanyin Bodhisattva.” He had been attacked for causing trouble and didn’t want to complicate things further. He craved peace.
