Chapter 157: Cooperation
Thinking of this, a hint of mockery appeared in Su Li's eyes when he looked at Long Aotian.
And the fact was just as Su Li expected!
At this time, Long Aotian, who was knocked away, had a distorted face and an angry expression. He clenched his fists and stared at Long Lang who was enjoying the cheers on the stage!
He was now extremely devastated. All of this should have belonged to him, all of it.
But in the end, he ended up making wedding dresses for others. How could he not be heartbroken?
Thinking of this, Long Aotian punched the floor with a distorted expression!
"If you want to blame someone, blame that damn thunder."
Long Aotian murmured with the corner of his mouth.
But what puzzled him was where did the thunder come from?
Why is he attacking himself instead of others? There must be something fishy going on. Someone must be secretly targeting him.
I have to say that he was very smart. He realized in just a moment that something was wrong with the thunder.
Thinking of this, Long Aotian turned his head and glanced at everyone present, trying to find the person who was secretly manipulating behind the scenes and causing him to miss the victory.
First, he cast his suspicious eyes on Long Ruitian.
After all, Long Lang is Long Ruitian's son. The other party's victory in the first place was of great help to him, so the biggest suspect who was struck by thunder from the sky is Long Ruitian.
However, under his gaze, Long Ruitian did not show any abnormality. He just stepped onto the platform, raised his son's arm high, announced that his son was the first in the competition, and cheered. He did not look like someone who was attacking him from behind with thunder.
So it’s most likely not the other person!
Thinking of this, Long Aotian looked at several family elders who were usually on good terms with Long Lang. However, those family elders didn't even look at him the whole time, and they didn't look like the people who would use heavenly thunder to plot against him.
Seeing this scene, Long Aotian was confused!
Who was it then? The sudden appearance of thunder was definitely not a natural phenomenon. Someone must have been behind this. But Long Ruitian didn't do that, and neither did the elders of the Long family who were on good terms with Long Lang.
Who is that?
Suddenly, Long Aotian suddenly thought of someone and frowned.
Yes, in addition to Long Ruitian and those elders of the Long family who are on good terms with Long Lang, there is another person whom he hates to the core.
Su Li!
The other party is also a suspect. After all, whether in the Tianxuan Sect or in the Long family, the other party has been trying every means to target him, and this time is probably no exception.
Thinking of this, Long Aotian frowned and looked at Su Li with anger.
As if feeling Long Aotian's gaze, Su Li couldn't help but chuckle, then turned his head and looked at Long Aotian as well. With a move of his body, he came to the other side!
"Why, you lost by being struck by lightning and you think it was me that did it, so you're looking at me like that?"
Su Li smiled lightly and looked at Long Aotian.
As soon as these words came out, Long Aotian clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and stared at Su Li with a face full of resentment.
"Isn't it you?"
"Heh!
Hearing this, Su Li sneered, then put his ear close to the other person's ear and spoke slowly in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Bingo, you're right. I didn't expect you to be that stupid. I did it. So what can you do to me?"
Su Li showed a smug expression.
Seeing this scene, Long Aotian was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He pointed at the other party with a face full of resentment. He couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time:
"you you you…"
It was indeed Su Li, it was indeed him who did it. If it weren’t for him, he would have won long ago.
Thinking of this, Long Aotian could no longer bear the anger in his heart and suddenly shouted loudly:
"Su Li, you bastard, I'm going to kill you, kill you!"
The words fell.
Long Aotian stood up instantly, stretched out his hands and rushed towards Su Li, wanting to strangle him to death.
In response to this, Su Li chuckled.
As soon as he flashed to Long Aotian's side, he had already noticed Long Ruitian who was accompanying his son on the platform!
Although Long Ruitian seemed to be cheering with his son on the platform, he was always paying attention to his surroundings, fearing that there would be a riot!
It was because he noticed this that Su Li told Long Aotian the truth in person.
This would not only prevent Long Ruitian from knowing the truth, but would also make Long Aotian extremely angry and make him attack him.
He is an elder of Tianxuan Sect and represents the face of Tianxuan Sect.
Naturally, Long Ruitian would not allow himself to be beaten by Long Aotian here, and he would definitely take action to stop Long Aotian!
Once the other party stops everyone, their eyes will turn here. At that time, everyone will definitely blame Long Aotian, causing his mentality to collapse further and making him even more unpopular.
Thinking of this, Su Li smiled slightly.
And the fact was just as Su Li expected!
At the moment when Long Aotian was about to reach out and strangle him, a terrifying pressure suddenly rushed down from the top of Long Aotian's head and pressed him to the ground!
Then Long Ruitian flashed to their side, appeared in mid-air, and questioned Long Aotian in a stern voice:
"Long Aotian, what do you want to do? You actually attacked Fellow Daoist Su openly. Could it be that you don't want to return to Tianxuan Sect, or do you want Tianxuan Sect to vent its anger on our Long family?"
"boom!"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was stunned and looked over here.
Long Aotian was also extremely angry when he saw the gazes of so many people. He clenched his fists and could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He pointed at Su Li and roared:
"Su Li is a beast in human form. He was the one who caused the thunderbolt to target me. He has violated the bottom line of the Long family and secretly interfered with the competition during the Long family competition. I was only punishing him on behalf of the Long family. What wrong have I done?"
Long Aotian’s voice is very loud!
Hearing this, Long Ruitian frowned slightly and looked at Su Li!
In fact, he also noticed the strangeness of the thunder. Could it be that the other party was really responsible?
Well, it doesn't matter. Even if it was really done by the other party, it won't be a loss for me and my son. After all, my son has won the first place. From this point of view, if this was really done by Su Li, then the other party has helped me a lot. It can be seen that the interests of both parties have long been in the same boat, and there is no need for me to make things difficult for him.
However, with so many people watching, if I don't say something, I will inevitably be suspected of shielding Su Li and protecting my son.
Thinking of this, Long Ruitian took a deep breath, then looked at Su Li and said:
"Does Fellow Daoist Su really mean what he said?"
Long Ruitian believed that if it was really Su Li who did it, he must have found an excuse. Otherwise, if he couldn't even handle such a small matter, he would not have been able to climb to such a top position and would not have survived.
And the facts were just as Long Ruitian expected.
Su Li had already thought of a countermeasure. He looked up at Long Ruitian. From the other's eyes, he instantly understood what the other party meant. He wanted to cooperate with him.
After all, the two of them now share a common interest. If he was accused of plotting against Long Aotian behind his back, not only would he be eliminated, but Long Ruitian and Long Lang would also have to compete again. At that time, it might be difficult for Long Lang to get first place again.
Therefore, Long Ruitian definitely doesn't want this to happen.
Thinking of this, Su Li smiled and immediately spread his hands, saying the excuse he had prepared:
"how is this possible?"
"Long Aotian is just talking nonsense. Why should I target him?"
"First, I'm only at the Nascent Soul stage. If I make a move, most people here will be able to notice it. Did you see me make a move?"
"Secondly, Long Aotian is still a direct disciple of our Tianxuan Sect. As an elder of the Tianxuan Sect, if I don't protect our direct disciple and even wait for an opportunity to retaliate against him, am I stupid?"
