Previously, the two of them had clearly received the approval of the Third Elder, saying that there was no mistake in this matter. The Saint Child of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect and the Holy Maiden would both come out to testify, but now? It was the complete opposite of what they had prepared beforehand. No matter how much they thought about it, they just couldn't understand how noble the statuses of the Holy Son and Holy Maiden of the Ten Thousand Thunder Sect were. He was actually working with Ling Jian?
Just now, they had all seen the Sixth Saint's peaceful actions. He had long since become brothers with Ling Jian! Even if they weren't brothers, they were still considered brothers. In any case, they didn't have the opposing relationships that they had previously imagined.
"Ling Jian! You piece of trash, stop framing my master in front of me. What kind of status does my master have? How could she lower herself to frame you? Humph! Hurry up and say it. Just what kind of crafty scheme did you use to cause the Sixth Saint and the Sixth Saint to change their minds? "
At this moment, a discordant voice sounded. It was the Third Elder's prized disciple, Xiao Lingyun. He saw his master being humiliated by Ling Jian and felt a sense of danger. Finally, he could no longer hold back and stood out.
He was at the peak of the fourth level, and the previous Ling Jian was indeed considered trash in front of him!
However, the current Ling Jian, frankly speaking, his strength was still above his. Not long ago, he had cultivated to the fifth heaven of martial arts!
When the Third Elder saw that his favorite disciple had come to rescue him, he was also overjoyed. That's right, what Xiao Lingyun had said was not without reason, the reaction from the Holy Son and the Holy Maiden was extremely abnormal. If it were not for Ling Jian's schemes, how could he have been rejected?
Having thought through this point, the third elder calmed down. As long as he could not let this matter go, he still had a sliver of hope.
He looked at Xiao Lingyun for a moment before looking away with satisfaction. Inwardly, he felt quite happy that he had not raised this child for nothing. At such a crucial moment, he had begun to help his master resolve this problem.
"Disciple, good disciple, I shall leave this position to you. Please suppress Ling Jian for me and let this piece of trash try your strength. Let him still dare to spout such arrogant words and give me a random conviction!"
Xiao Lingshuang laughed coldly in his heart as he shot a pitying glance at Ling Jian.
"Who are you calling trash?"
Ling Jian turned a blind eye to the Third Elder's compassionate gaze, and instead turned around and glared coldly at Xiao Lingyun.
"Hmph, I was talking about you, what about it? You're not convinced, are you? If I say that you are trash, is there anything else wrong with that? If it were me, I would have already found a quiet place to hide. How can there be a coward like you who doesn't know shame and doesn't care about face! Serves you right for having all the Great Elders work together to abolish your identity as the Young Sect Master! "
Xiao Lingyun had an arrogant look on his face as he looked at Ling Jian with a mocking expression. Even in the elders' meeting, he did not put Ling Jian in his eyes at all.
"Hmph, is that so? Since that's the case, we might as well compete and see who is the true trash! "
Ling Jian's gaze turned cold as he glared at him. However, he was not the least bit afraid.
The others only thought that he was young and had been easily angered by Xiao Lingyun. However, only he knew that Xiao Lingyun was not worthy to be his opponent and did not even have the qualifications to carry his shoes with him.
If Ling Jian wanted to crush Xiao Lingyun, it would be as easy as crushing an ant to death!
"Ling Jian, come back here. How could you be his opponent?"
Luo Tianyan was worried. The situation had eased up for him, and now his face was tense. He never thought that Ling Jian would be so impulsive as to challenge Xiao Lingyun.
"Third uncle, don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Ling Jian was unperturbed as he looked at Luo Tianyan with a smile and nodded his head.
"Fifth Elder, aren't you spoiling this child too much? Ling Jian is the young sect master of the Qing-Yun Sect, and will also be taking on the sect master's responsibilities in the future. Don't stop this young man from sparring, it can't be that the young sect master doesn't even have this much courage and ability, right?"
The Fourth Elder felt that things had changed for the better, and he immediately smiled sinisterly.
"Haha, Ling Jian, you brat, you are becoming more and more arrogant. I didn't hear wrongly, you actually want to challenge me? Hahaha, do you really think that I am that good-for-nothing trash Lin Qingyun from before? If you put me and Lin Qingyun together, if you think that you can face me head on by defeating Lin Qingyun, then you are completely wrong. Let me tell you directly, Lin Qingyun's failure at that time will immediately happen to you! "
Xiao Lingyun laughed out loud. It was as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He had never thought that Ling Jian would actually challenge him.
Xiao Lingyun sarcastically retorted:
"Trash, this is what you asked for, don't blame me for not reminding you beforehand, I am at the peak of the fourth heaven, my entire body's bones can already be said to be like iron bones." Trash, this is what you asked for, don't blame me for not reminding you beforehand, I am at the peak of the fourth heaven realm, my entire body's bones can be said to be like iron bones.
"Is that so? For trash like you, I can knock you down with one palm. If I, Ling Jian, was a trash, then you, Xiao Lingyun, would be the trash amongst trash, not even comparable to trash! "
Ling Jian sarcastically replied with a cold smile.
"You!"
Xiao Lingyun was infuriated as he glared at Ling Jian with a cold smile. "Brat, I have nothing better to say. You're the one who brought this upon yourself." Fellow Elders, it was Ling Jian who first came to challenge me, all of you have seen it, you can't blame me for this, I did not say anything, and our Young Sect Master is challenging me in just a few sentences, you can't blame me for this, when the time comes, if this brat dies at my hands, it won't be completely my fault, right? "
Ling Jian could see that Xiao Lingyun was a hypocrite, but he could not help but sneer in his heart. Hmmph, at that time, it is uncertain who will be the one to die.
The Third Elder, Xiao Ling, had an imperceptible look of satisfaction on his face. Obviously, he was very satisfied with the fact that his proud disciple had caused such a ruckus, and had completely incited the trash, Ling Jian, to the point of infuriation. If Ling Jian had died at the hands of his disciple, some of the crimes that he had to bear before, he could have stopped!
