Li Banfeng stomped Zhong Desong into the boiling water with one foot.
Steam billowed, scalding Li Banfeng, who quickly withdrew his foot.
Li Banfeng was a Second Layer Home Cultivation and a First Layer Traveling Cultivator. Even with his current cultivation level, a brief scald was unbearably painful for him. It was far worse for Zhong Desong, whose entire body was soaking in the hot water.
Zhong Desong struggled to raise his head, but Li Banfeng took out the Iron Ruler and stabbed it at the top of Zhong Desong's head, pushing him back into the water.
The Iron Ruler was heated red-hot, so Li Banfeng hurriedly retracted it and then delivered another kick to Zhong Desong's head.
Zhong Desong swam to another wall, trying to surface for air.
Li Banfeng leaped to the opposite wall and delivered another kick to his head.
Zhong Desong tried several times to escape the pool of hot tea, but Li Banfeng never gave him the chance.
He was soaked in the hot water for almost five minutes.
