Chapter 37 - Beautiful Master Su! She Actually Spoke Up!

Chapter 37 Beautiful Master Su! She Actually Spoke Up!

After hearing Zhu Wanning’s words, Lin Xiao’s mind exploded!

In an instant, everything was a mess!

The f*ck!

Did this woman know what she’s talking about?’

She, Zhu Wanning, was one of the strongest people in Ye Chen’s harem!

To think she actually wanted to kill Ye Chen?

If my junior sisters changed their character because of me…

What about Zhu Wanning?

Be it in the original novel or in this universe, Zhu Wanning had almost zero interaction with Lin Xiao!

In the original plot, when news of Lin Xiao committing suicide at the Reflection Cliff circulated throughout the entire sect, this ice-cold beauty of Phoenix Cry Peak only commented, “A person with evil intentions deserves such an ending.”

“All these years, relying on Master’s favoritism, I’ve been lazing around and bullying my junior brothers and sisters. My bad reputation has long spread throughout the entire Azure Mist Sect.”

“Zhu Wanning should have heard about such things. She hates evil, so why is she willing to work with me?”

“This is not normal! This is definitely not normal!”

Lin Xiao weighed his options carefully. His eyes widened as he said coldly, “Junior Sister Zhu! During the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony yesterday, that newbie Junior Brother Ye did indeed start some conflicts with me, but I, Lin Xiao, have always been morally upright!”

“Since Junior Brother Ye slandered me in front of the Sect Master today, I shall explain myself. As for the rest, I’ll leave them to the Sect Master and the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall to decide. If I secretly interfere in them, I’ll be offending justice!”

“Whether or not Ye Chen is guilty, and how severe are his crimes, those shall be left to the sect to decide. Junior Sister Zhu, please don’t have any other ideas lest you taint your fair and magnanimous Dao heart!”

He spoke with an air of firmness and righteousness.

Even Lu Yingying was stunned!

This was the first time she had seen such a righteous and glorious side of her Eldest Senior Brother!

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he did not even look at Zhu Wanning. He held his junior sister’s hand and strode towards the Divine Firmament Palace.

To be precise… he was escaping!

He felt that if he continued to argue with Zhu Wanning, the plot would probably just deviate even more!

“I didn’t expect Senior Brother Lin to be so upright…”

Looking at the back view that was so fair and ethereal, Zhu Wanning’s beautiful eyes darkened as she muttered, “It’s not what I imagined.”

Divine Firmament Palace, Sect Master Hall.

“The eldest disciple of the Divine Phoenix Peak, Lin Xiao, greets the Sect Master and elders!”

Lin Xiao stepped in and cupped his hands.

He glanced over with his peripheral vision.

Other than his beautiful master, the four Chiefs, including the Sect Master, and Venerable Zi Yun, were all present.

In front of the statue of the Three Pure Gods that was situated at the center, more than ten guest elders of Dragon Head Peak and five “Evil Punishment Elders” of the Law Enforcement Hall sat in the air, their expressions solemn.

What a scene.

Lin Xiao’s heart skipped a beat as he instinctively looked towards the back hall. Indeed, he saw a young man in black kneeling on the ground, tearfully saying something to a short and plump Daoist.

It was Ye Chen and his evil master, Perfected Yuan Yi.

“Tsk, the mighty Chosen One, the one who ruled the ages and defeated all the geniuses in the original novel, the Divine King Ye who was unwilling to bow down to the gods all his life, is actually crying and kneeling to a small boss. How sad.”

Lin Xiao pursed his lips and sighed.

Come to think about it, this was normal.

In the original novel, putting aside his incredible luck and fortune, Ye Chen was just an ordinary and slightly brazen young man. All these years, with the help of the mysterious old man in the ring, he had had a smooth journey and won every battle, which only fuelled his arrogance in him.

Presumably, after he was defeated by this villain during the Disciple Recruitment Ceremony, he was unable to take the loss, affecting his personality as a result.

“Forget it. What happens to this guy next isn’t important to me.”

“What I have to do now is to do my best to keep him alive until the Five Lineages Martial Arts Competition. Defeat me in public and help me complete this plot!”

Lin Xiao affirmed his goal once again.

At the same moment.

Ye Chen also raised his head and gritted his teeth, staring at him with bloodshot eyes!

That gaze looked like he wanted to eat him alive!

“Heh, do you think glaring works?” “Come and bite me if you have the guts! Idiot.”

A

“If not for the sake of completing the mission, with my current strength, I would be able to kill you with a single strike!”

Lin Xiao sneered in his heart and looked to the side.

For some reason, he suddenly felt that when he looked at Ye Chen just now, he did not feel the powerful pressure that the Chosen One had when they first met.

“Could it be that this kid’s luck… is starting to decline?”

Lin Xiao’s curiosity was piqued.

“Lin Xiao, why isn’t your junior sister, Chu Youwei, here? Could it be that the disciple I sent hasn’t informed her yet?”

In the center of the hall, the middle-aged Sect Master of the Azure Mist Sect, Daoist Zi Yun, said loudly.

“Sect Master, my Third Junior Sister overdid her zither practice last night and injured her heart. Today, my master strictly ordered her to rest in the dormitory and not go out.”

Lin Xiao said firmly. Of course, he deliberately got Chu Youwei to be absent.

This girl blushed when she lied. How could she handle such a big scene?

As for the reason for her absence, he could just blame it on his Master, the Alcoholic Fairy!

Who would dare to make things difficult for the fairy Hongling, who was known to be domineering, unruly, and straightforward? When the few Chiefs, including the Sect Master, Venerable Zi Yun, were still fellow disciples, Xiao Hongling, as his junior sister, was barred from drinking. In a fit of anger, she had beaten her senior brothers into surrendering and obediently returning the confiscated wine to her.

It could be said that in the entire Azure Mist Sect, other than “True Lord Tai Wu”, the leader of the “Six Sages of Azure Mist” who was eventually killed for plot purposes…

There was only one person who could truly be the number one in terms of combat strength, and that was Xiao Hongling!

Indeed.

As soon as Lin Xiao said this…

Perfected Zi Yun’s expression was awkward for a second. Then, he looked at the few enforcement elders and cleared his throat. “Forget it, forget it. Since your master hasn’t arrived yet, as the eldest disciple of the lineage and the main target of Ye Chen, a disciple of the Heavenly Chi Peak…”

“Today, you will explain everything yourself!”

At this point, Daoist Zi Yun’s thin face sank and became extremely serious. “Lin Xiao, last night, did you instruct your junior sister, Chu Youwei, to visit Ye Chen at the Heavenly Peak and trick him into going to the Fairy Pond on the Phoenix Cry Peak?”

“Tell me the truth!”

His tone was not heavy, but it was dignified, instantly causing the atmosphere to turn cold!

Under the majestic might of this Soul Formation Sect Master, even Lin Xiao, who had been calm the entire time, felt his heart sink.

“Damn it, I have to think carefully about what kind of excuse to use. One that allows me to I can clear our relationship and keep Ye Chen alive.”

“That’s a lot of technical work.”

At this moment, at the back of the hall.

The kind-looking Daoist Yuan Yi stroked the black-clothed youth’s hand and chuckled.

“Ye Chen, don’t worry.”

“His master wasn’t present today. If he can’t prove his innocence later, I have ten thousand ways to get the Law Enforcement Hall to execute him to appease your hatred!”

“Re-really? Master, are you serious?”

When Ye Chen heard this, his eyes instantly lit up.

“Hey, I’m afraid you still don’t know your master’s ability.”

Daoist Yuan Yi narrowed his eyes and smiled.

“In terms of fighting, of course, I can’t compare to his master, Xiao Hongling. But in terms of understanding the ways of the world, hehe…”

He paused. There was a hint of smugness on his peacefully kind and chubby face.

“I’ll be straightforward. Over the years, I’ve been working hard in the sect and have connections with all the factions in the Azure Mist Sect. Almost all the elders will agree to help me.”

“In other words, in today’s public trial in the Law Enforcement Hall, without anyone standing up for Lin Xiao, he, an inner sect disciple, is like a fish egg that can be crushed into powder at any time!”

“And once he confesses his guilt, it will be too late even if his master comes looking for him!”

He had just finished speaking. A gentle and dignified female voice came from the stage.

“Aiya, since Junior Sister Hongling didn’t come today, I’ll make a decision for her and Disciple Lin. I shall interrogate him personally.”

Everyone was shocked by her words!

Even Lin Xiao was dumbfounded!

Stunned, he turned toward the voice.

He saw a beautiful woman in a red phoenix-patterned Daoist robe with a phoenix crown on her head!

She was the master of Phoenix Peak, Zhu Wanning’s master, Su Mei!

This young beauty was just as beautiful as his master, and her figure was even more magnificent than Junior Sister Yourong’s. She looked at him with a smile in her phoenix eyes, and her plump and seductive red lips curled up slightly, it looked like…

A teasing gesture?

“Damn, why is Master Su looking at me like that?”

“In front of so many people, what … does she want?”

Lin Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. He could not help but recall some scenes of Su Mei in the original novel.

In an instant, his already sturdy Formless Sword Body became even more firm.
