Xiao Ling's actions were clear; he intended to drag Zheng Ming away. He had just made fun of Fang Yunbai with glee, but what he wanted even more was to step on this young Sect Master to elevate his own reputation.
Unfortunately, just as his palm was about to touch Zheng Ming's arm, Zheng Ming's hand had already landed on his shoulder. Then, he felt a tremendous force that sent him flying off the ground.
"Bang!"
Xiao Ling's body heavily crashed onto a rock with his head down and feet up, causing blood to immediately appear on his head.
When Xiao Ling made his move, many people turned to watch the excitement. However, Zheng Ming's sudden counteraction took many by surprise.
"Insubordination against superiors, really lacking discipline. For now, I'll punish you by having you stay on the ground for a while. Wait until your Master arrives to deal with your sinful obstruction!" Zheng Ming said with an air of a Sect Master's authority, while everything around was still calm.
