Courtyard House: The Cultivation System Takes Me Flying

Yan Bugui left dejectedly. He had bought a meal for seven cents but had lost all face. He returned home and shut himself in, not daring to even leave the courtyard. The news spread like wildfire throughout the entire courtyard, and everyone looked at Qin Lindong with even greater awe.

No one expected that Qin Lindong would even dare to deal with Yan Bugui, the stingiest person in the hospital, and openly offer to take advantage of him, completely extinguishing the hospital's hopes of getting something for nothing.

For a moment, the courtyard became even quieter. No one dared to approach Qin Lindong's house, and even when they spoke, they kept their voices down.

But there are always people who don't believe in superstition.

Second Uncle Liu Haizhong was obsessed with officialdom. His greatest hobby in life was to flaunt his official power, lecture people, and preach grand principles. He always felt that he was superior to others and that everyone in the courtyard should listen to him.

Previously, when Qin Lindong confronted Yi Zhonghai, the deaf old woman, and Yan Bugui, Liu Haizhong had always hidden behind and dared not step forward. Now that he saw that all three of them had fallen, he felt no fear at all, but instead had the illusion that "heaven has bestowed a great responsibility upon this person."

He felt that Yi Zhonghai and Yan Bugui were too useless, unable to even control a young man. Now it was his turn as the second uncle to step in, use his official authority to intimidate Qin Lindong, and establish his absolute authority in the courtyard!

As long as he can subdue Qin Lindong, everyone in the courtyard will listen to him from now on!

Thinking of this, Liu Haizhong put his hands behind his back, adopted the posture of a leader on an inspection tour, and slowly walked to Qin Lindong's door with a serious face and furrowed brows, looking like he was about to give a lecture.

"Qin Lindong, open the door! I have something important to announce!"

His voice was loud and deliberately raised, with a strong official tone, as if he was afraid others wouldn't hear him.

Inside the room, Qin Lindong was cultivating. Upon hearing the sound, he frowned slightly, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.

Liu Haizhong, a self-proclaimed official, also joined in the fun.

He was too lazy to get up and replied indifferently, "No time."

The simple word "simple" directly blocked the entrance to the bangs.

Liu Haizhong froze on the spot, his face instantly darkening.

In his entire life, no one had ever dared to speak to him like that! He took the initiative to come to his door, and not only did Qin Lindong not greet him respectfully, he even dared to say that he was too busy!

"Qin Lindong! How dare you!" Liu Haizhong raised his voice and shouted sternly, "I am the second eldest uncle in the courtyard, your elder. How dare you be so disrespectful? Open the door now and accept my instruction!"

They flaunted their official power and used their seniority to intimidate others, one thing after another.

Hearing the commotion, the neighbors all peeked out to see what was going on, wondering if Qin Lindong would give Liu Haizhong any face.

Inside the room, Qin Lindong finally got up and opened the door.

At the doorway, Liu Haizhong stood with his hands behind his back, head held high, adopting an arrogant posture, his eyes stern, waiting for Qin Lindong to bow his head and admit his mistake.

But Qin Lindong just looked at him indifferently, his tone icy: "Second Uncle, I haven't stolen, I haven't robbed, I haven't caused trouble, and I haven't broken the law. What right do you have to lecture me?"

"As an elder in the community, you don't uphold justice or mediate conflicts; all you do is flaunt your authority and lecture others. Do you deserve to be called the 'second uncle'?"

The first sentence directly exposes the true nature of bangs.

Liu Haizhong's face darkened, and he shouted sternly, "How am I not worthy? I am the second eldest uncle elected by the courtyard, and it is my responsibility to manage the entire courtyard! Recently, you have been acting arrogantly and domineeringly in the courtyard, beating and scolding your elders, and showing no respect for your elders. Today, I will teach you a lesson!"

"Acting like a tyrant?" Qin Lindong sneered, his gaze sharp as a knife. "The Jia family stole my grain and beat my people. I fought back in self-defense. Is that what you call acting like a tyrant?"

"Yi Zhonghai favors the wicked, the deaf old woman abuses her age, and Yan Bugui takes advantage of others by freeloading. I retaliate against them one by one. Is that considered disrespectful to elders?"

"Second Uncle, are you blind, or are you just twisted in your heart?"

The three questions were like daggers, each one piercing to the heart, leaving Liu Haizhong speechless, his face turning red and white in turns, unable to utter a single word for a long time.

"You...you..." Liu Haizhong trembled with anger, pointing at Qin Lindong, but couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.

He is in the wrong, completely in the wrong!

Qin Lindong pressed closer, his voice growing colder: "Let me tell you, Liu Haizhong, don't try to put on airs in front of me. Your old tricks won't work on me!"

"If you dare to cause trouble again and put on airs at my doorstep, don't blame me for dealing with you too!"

"Now, immediately, disappear from my doorstep!"

A cold rebuke, carrying the physical pressure of a second-level Body Tempering Realm cultivator, swept over me.

Liu Haizhong felt an overwhelming pressure that made it hard for him to breathe. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and he could no longer maintain any of his official demeanor. His face turned pale, and he scrambled back two steps.

Under Qin Lindong's sharp gaze, all his official airs, reasoning, and pretenses crumbled completely!

The neighbors who had been watching the commotion all lowered their heads and dared not utter a sound.

Even the second uncle, Liu Haizhong, has fallen from grace!

[Ding! The host confronted Liu Haizhong head-on, shattering his official arrogance and intimidating the entire academy!]

[Reward: Progress to Level 2 of Body Tempering Realm +20%, currently at 83%!]

Stamina +6, current stamina 43!

[Points +180, current points: 1280!]

Qin Lindong glanced coldly at Liu Haizhong, turned around, closed the door, and ignored him.

At the door, Liu Haizhong stood frozen in place, utterly humiliated in front of everyone. Unable to stay any longer, he slunk back home.

From then on, all three old men in the courtyard, Yi Zhonghai, Liu Haizhong, and Yan Bugui, stumbled in front of Qin Lindong without exception!

No one in the entire hospital dared to provoke Qin Lindong!
