Bai Ying didn't say anything more. She didn't even try to persuade her, and silently walked towards the door.

She originally intended to help the Brahma Immortal Venerable repay the favor he owed. Since the Yan Clan didn't need it, she wouldn't shamelessly stay here any longer.

When the young apprentice saw Bai Ying humiliated by everyone's words and had to slink away, his expression was one of extreme smugness.

However, he wasn't actually sure if his master would be able to come out in three months. After Bai Ying left, he said to the Fourth Elder, "Take this medicine first. My master is estimated to be out of seclusion in three months. We'll talk about it then." He emphasized the word "estimated" when he said this.

Since he had already said all that, even if his master hadn't come out of seclusion, he wasn't lying.

But the Fourth Elder immediately noticed the key point of his question. "Are you sure Master Mu can emerge from seclusion in three months?"

The young apprentice mumbled somewhat vaguely, "Probably."

The Fourth Elder's expression instantly turned rather unpleasant.

Three months is but a blink of an eye for someone like Master Mu. If he had delayed his seclusion for a little longer, he probably wouldn't have even noticed.

But now he only has three months left to live.

If Master Mu does not emerge from seclusion within three months, then I will surely die!

The Fourth Elder looked at the pill in his hand, his fingers clenched tightly. After hesitating for a moment, he did not swallow it on the spot.

The young apprentice, oblivious to the change in the Fourth Elder's attitude, smugly bid them farewell.

When he got back, he told everyone he knew about what had happened that day as a joke.

Bai Ying, a nobody he'd never even heard of, dared to spout nonsense in the Yan clan. Just thinking about everything that had happened today made him laugh.

The matter quickly spread to a small circle, and Ruan Xinrou clenched her teeth tightly when she heard people in the sect talking about it.

"Great!" She had finally found an opportunity to ruin Bai Ying's reputation.

Ruan Xinrou is now finding it difficult to make a living in the sect. Apart from her master, no one cares about her. Even her senior brothers, who used to protect her, now mock her every time they see her.

In particular, some unknown person actually used the Qiankun Mirror to record the scene of Bai Ying searching Xiao Yu's soul in the Lingxiao Sect.

It was also shown to the people in the sect.

Now, her situation is even more difficult, and she can only hide within her sect.

Now that she has suddenly heard about this, she can't wait to get revenge.

"System, can you help me spread this word? I want everyone to know how embarrassing Bai Ying looks."

"That's possible, but hiding like this isn't a solution. You need to find a way to win everyone's favor!"

"Of course I know."

Ruan Xinrou frowned deeply; she wanted to win everyone's favor more than anyone else!

Even though she had already kicked Bai Ying out, she was still forced to hide in a dark corner like a mouse.

She was determined to avenge this, and she wanted everyone to know the outrageous things Bai Ying had done within the Yan clan.

This matter was quickly publicized by Ruan Xinrou's system.

The news spread like wildfire, and everyone knew that a cultivator named Bai Ying had presumptuously criticized Master Mu.

She even claimed that the fourth elder of the Yan clan would surely die if he took Master Mu's elixir.

This is an utter disgrace for any alchemist, let alone a master alchemist like Master Mu.

In a short time, many cultivators who had received kindness from Master Mu rushed to the Lingxiao Sect and started cursing at the sect.

If Bai Ying were not a cultivator from the Lingxiao Sect, but a rogue cultivator, she would probably have been found and killed by them by now!

They dared not confront a major sect, yet they stood guard at the entrance of the Lingxiao Sect day after day, shouting at those inside.

"If you're so capable, then never let Bai Ying out again, or I'll beat her every time I see her! Who does she think she is, daring to spout such nonsense at Master Mu? She wasn't even born when Master Mu was refining pills!"

"That's right, she's just a sixteen or seventeen-year-old kid, how dare she say such things! Make her come out here, I want to show her what it means to not say whatever you want!"

"Where are the people from the Lingxiao Sect?! What are you cowards doing?! Let her out! Do you really want to protect such a bastard?"

These people were shouting and yelling. Even Lin Yang, who had taken Bai Ying to the Yan clan, was attacked by some of them.

The Lin clan members were also filled with regret, wishing they hadn't sought out Bai Ying.

They not only didn't see anything wrong with the insults directed at Bai Ying, but also felt that Bai Ying had brought it upon herself.

Lin Yuan, in particular, is now relieved that he and Bai Ying have already broken off their engagement.

Whenever someone came to them spreading rumors, he would immediately tell them that he and Bai Ying had broken off their engagement, hoping that everyone in the world would know that he and Bai Ying had no relationship whatsoever.

Under Ruan Xinrou's manipulation of the system, more and more people became aware of this matter.

Now it's not just those who have received favors from Master Mu who are insulting Bai Ying; even some people who want to curry favor with him are going to the gates of the Lingxiao Sect to hurl insults.

Bai Ying wasn't worried about this, because soon many people would have the same symptoms as the Fourth Elder. When even Master Mu couldn't cure them, those who were currently insulting her would come here to curry favor with her.

She calmly studied the secret manuals left behind by the Brahma Immortal Venerable.
