Oh, no!
Seeing how things had become, a chill ran down Ronny's spine. He looked at Derrick as if asking for help.
'Derrick won't take that advantage to get back at me, will he?' Ronny thought.
Darryl smiled at Coleman indifferently. "I'll let you decide how to deal with them." He was already disgusted with Ronny. When he saw that Coleman was about to help him, he would not stop him.
Coleman nodded knowingly and slapped Ronny's face again, roaring, "Damn it! Just because you're a rich kid, you dare look down on Derrick? I despise the likes of you. Damn it! You deserve it!"
While scolding the man, Coleman pointed to the few other rich kids next to Ronny. "And those guys as well! Beat them up! Now!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A dozen haughty men did not hesitate to go forward as soon as Coleman finished his words. They punched and kicked Ronny and the rest of the rich kids.
"Good brothers! Have mercy, spare my life." Ronny had been a pampered kid since he was young and had just joined Heavenly Dragon Sect. Hence, he had not learned any skills yet. How could he withstand such a beating? He was beaten to a pulp as he rolled and cried non-stop.
"Forgive me!"
"Stop hitting me! Ah, I did not say anything!"
"Stop!"
The other rich kids also screamed incessantly.
Gasp!
Selina and Mandy were terrified when they saw the scene. They leaned against each other and shivered uncontrollably. They gasped as their feet went unstable; they could not even stand up straight.
They were like rich, delicate women, and when they saw such a scene for the first time, they were frightened.
Coleman and his gang only came to a halt when Ronny was about to die, not realizing how much time had elapsed.
Ronny had a bloody nose and a swollen face. He felt like weeping but had no tears.
'Damn it, what's going on? I was beaten for offering money and then again for speaking in a low voice. What a great shame!' he thought.
'Forget it. I'll play it by ear.'
"Coleman!"
Suddenly, Marvin hollered, "It's cold by the lake at night. Let's find a place to rest."
"Yes, sir!" Coleman responded. He hurriedly gestured at the haughty men around him to urge Ronny and the rest to look for a suitable spot.
After a while, they found several natural caves under a cliff not far from the lake. One was large enough to fit everyone so that they could rest.
"This place will do!"
Marvin pointed at the biggest cave and smiled at Darryl. "Everyone will rest here tonight. Derrick, I need to practice cultivation and heal myself. Please make yourself at home, and don't feel restrained. We're now good friends!"
Then, Marvin said, "Coleman, have a few drinks with Derrick. Don't neglect him."
After giving the order, Marvin went to the adjacent cave and began cultivating. Although Darryl helped him with the injury to his heart, he was still a little weak and needed to practice cultivation to heal himself.
