Chapter 305: The Promised Dojo
"stop!"
A loud voice sounded, but it was like a needle dropped into the water, without causing a single ripple. Although the voice was full of energy, only Lingxiang and the others near the door heard it, and the hall was still in chaos.
Just at this moment, two people walked in from the door. One of them wore a high crown with his hair tied up, and a brown robe with wide sleeves. He looked very majestic, and the one following behind him was Lu Ying.
"Stop! This is disgraceful!"
The man shouted again, but this time his voice was drowned out by the noise and chaos.
Looking at Lu Ying with a helpless look on his face and the person who came with frowning brows and angry eyes, Lingxiang sighed, turned her head to look at the four people who were gloating over their misfortune, and could only roll her eyes in response.
"Ha! Man!"
No man is reliable!
Lingxiang sighed, then took out a yellow talisman from her bosom, twisted it with her fingers, blew on it, and then threw it.
The yellow talisman flew straight to the center of Youyuan Palace, and suddenly ignited in the air. At that moment...
"What are you making a fuss about? Are you rebelling?"
It was like a thunderclap, exploding in the hall, circling and lingering around the beams. The old ashes from the crossbeams on the beams also fell down sparsely along with the ashes of the talisman.
The constant noise just now suddenly stopped. There was no other sound in the hall except the creaking of old wood.
All the disciples looked at each other in shock, not daring to even breathe, for fear that the slightest noise would cause the entire hall to collapse.
"Crack, click, click..."
The sound of nut shells clacking came from the corner at an inopportune moment. Everyone in the hall looked in that direction at the same time, only to see Lingxiang concentrating on peeling pine seeds.
As if she was aware of the greetings from others, Lingxiang raised her head and said calmly, "Go on, keep fighting. You guys are done fighting before you've even finished eating all the pine seeds? I haven't seen enough of the fun!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples in the green Taoist robes in the hall stood up straight, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Elder Fu Cang."
When the disciples in grey Taoist robes saw that these disciples kept quiet, they also hurriedly followed suit and saluted.
Is this Elder Fu Cang?
The man at the door of the hall looked at Lingxiang, a flash of surprise in his eyes, then he stepped forward, bowed, and introduced his name.
"The second disciple of the Grand Master Hui Yan greets Elder Fu Cang."
Hearing this, Lingxiang turned around with a smile on her face and raised her hand and said, "So you are Master Lieyang's disciple. It's okay to talk to you. You don't have to be polite."
Seeing Lingxiang's smile, Huiyan also smiled: "My fellow disciples are still new to Taoism, and cannot avoid the vulgarity of the world. As outsiders, they had a dispute with Yuanqing Sect, and they really deserve to be beaten, but for the sake of Master, I hope Elder Fu Cang will forgive them. I will report to Master later and he will punish them severely."
After Lingxiang thought about it for a moment, she felt that Hui Yan was really good at speaking. With just one sentence, he had corrected the mistake in half.
What this person meant was that my family was wrong, but my family is young and it is understandable that we are unreasonable. It is strange that you, a famous sect and the head of the sect, can fight with us.
"As expected of you, Master Xunfeng's nephew. The director's judgment is truly fair." Lingxiang smiled and put a pine seed in her mouth.
Although the Taishang Sect is a new rising star, who in the underworld doesn't know that Master Xunfeng is stingy and protective of his subordinates? Lingxiang didn't say that Huiyan was a disciple of Master Lieyang, but insisted on bringing up Master Xunfeng. The meaning is self-evident. Huiyan's face froze when he heard it, but it only took a moment for him to return to normal: "Thank you for the compliment. How dare I compare myself with my uncle? It's just that Master taught me well."
"Of course, of course. Why are you being so modest? Although the Tai Shang Sect was established not long ago, it is also very prestigious. In many things, old sects like Yuan Qing cannot compare with it."
It sounded like a polite remark, but Lingxiang's reaction was really nonchalant, as if she didn't care who was right or wrong in this chaos.
Hui Yan couldn't help but frown, as if he had punched something like cotton.
The two of them kept evading the issue, which made Lu Ying, who was standing behind Hui Yan, feel very embarrassed.
In terms of relationship, one is his fellow disciple and senior brother, and in terms of affection, the other saved his life, and they even shared hardships. Now he is caught in the middle and doesn't know who to speak for.
Got it!
Lu Ying seemed to remember something and hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects: "Miss Lingxiang, I said before in the Supreme Sect that we would become brother and sister. Now it seems that I should call you Senior Sister."
This gives both sides a way out. If they want to resolve the dispute, this is their chance to back down.
"Yes, yes, honestly I should call you senior sister." Hui Yan said as she was about to bow.
However, they overestimated the spiritual fragrance.
Although Lingxiang is easy-going and never cares about gains and losses with others, she is a vengeful person. Huiyan just blocked her mouth, how could she let it go?
Besides, she is the one in charge of Yuan Qing now, and these disciples of the Supreme Sect are actually talking nonsense. Could it be that they think she is young and easy to control?
Tsk! That's impossible!
"Shut up!" Ling Xiang immediately shouted, "Who is your senior sister?!"
This loud shout startled Hui Yan who was about to salute. Even Long Qi and others who were watching the show on the side were not prepared for Lingxiang's sudden attack.
It seems that the little girl doesn't want to keep quiet. Now it's time to watch a good show.
Long Qi looked gloating as he raised his head towards Xinyi, but the latter still had his hands behind his back with only a barely perceptible smile on his lips.
As expected, Lingxiang sang like falling pearls: "You are just a disciple of the Supreme Sect, how dare you call me, the Ninth Elder of the Yuanqing Sect, a senior sister and a junior brother? Could it be that you have come to Yuanqing recently and saw the vastness of my Jiuque Mountain, so you want to betray your master and join Yuanqing?"
"After all, my Yuanqing sect is a reputable and upright sect. Not everyone will be accepted. Even if I accept you, you should call me Master Aunt. But you want to be an equal. I'm afraid you don't have that chance. The previous headmaster died thirteen years ago. If you really want to be my fellow sect member, I can give you a way. Either white silk or poisoned wine, either one can send you to see him."
"Master Lieyang is indeed a disciple of Master Wuwei, the founder of Yuanqing, but he was driven off the mountain. Since he was driven off the mountain, he has nothing to do with Yuanqing anymore. I respectfully call him Uncle Master, just because of our friendship, but who are you? How dare you act so rudely in front of me? What? Do you think that I, the ninth son of Yuanqing, am a vegetarian?"
"You are a bunch of people who use your status to suppress my Yuanqing disciples, but you don't know that you are only asking for humiliation. Master Lieyang is supposed to be a man of high moral character, so how come he taught a bunch of good-for-nothings like you? You still claim to have entered the Taoist sect. In my opinion, it is better not to enter the Taoist sect, so as to save the Three Pure Ones from being upset when seeing you above the nine heavens."
The scolding continued without stopping, shocking the people from the Supreme Sect in the hall. Only then did they understand why such a little girl was treated with such respect by these seven-foot-tall men of the Yuanqing Sect.
He could say these words and every word was so reasonable that no one could refute it. His voice was as loud as a bell but as gentle as a playwright in the secular world. Hearing such weird words made me feel uncomfortable.
This is not something that ordinary people can do!
Looking at Ling Xiang with disdain on his face, Hui Yan didn't know how to respond for a moment. After a moment, he came to his senses and said, "Then according to Elder Fu Cang's opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
Lingxiang smiled when she heard that.
"Since you like fighting so much, I will set up the Kuncheng Peak martial arts arena tomorrow and let you fight to your heart's content to see who is better. This way, even if you lose, I believe you will be convinced!"
