Chapter 170 Protecting the Shortcomings

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. We have never been jealous of Senior Sister Miaoyun."

"you!"

Qin Ling was about to speak when Miao Yun stopped her: "Alright, stop arguing. The Sect Master and the elders are still here. How can you behave like this?"

"See, Qin Ling? You defended her like this, but she didn't appreciate it. She might even be laughing at you for meddling in her business!"

Qin Ling looked at Miao Yun with some grievance, but Miao Yun's mind was in a mess and he didn't notice Qin Ling's changing expression.

Ling Changge was accepted as a disciple by the sect master, and his status was transformed from an ordinary disciple who had just entered the sect to the chief disciple of Wuji Sect. He immediately followed Xu Chen to the inner courtyard, while the others were assigned to different places for cultivation according to their spiritual roots.

Zhao Xin watched her leave and sighed, "I'm afraid I'll never be able to catch up with Chang Ge in this lifetime."

Zhao Kai looked at his somewhat disappointed third brother, understood his double meaning, and patted his shoulder: "How can Chang Ge be so easy to pursue? But his spiritual power is several blocks away from ours. If it were you, I would say you should find someone else to pursue him!"

Zhao Xin slapped his hand away: "It's hard to undo what's spilled. You won't understand."

Arriving at the inner courtyard, Ling Changge looked at the huge seal covering the inner courtyard and couldn't help but ask, "Is this inner courtyard afraid of enemy attacks?"

"We did encounter an enemy attack in the early years." The Great Elder smiled. "You have a very good eye, girl. This seal is not easy to detect. Many people who enter the inner courtyard for the first time will bump into it, and some will even be bounced back to the outer courtyard." He glanced at Xu Chen and said with a smile, "Sect Master, this is just too unkind of you. Why didn't you remind Chang Ge?"

Ling Changge looked at the Great Elder. For the first time, she saw the potential of a green tea lover in a man, an old man who had lived for who knows how many years. In fact, when recruiting disciples in Jinling City, Ling Changge discovered that the elders of Wuji Sect were different from those of other sects. Most of the elders of other sects were proud of their status as elders and always gave people a condescending feeling, but in Wuji Sect, from the Sect Master to the elders and disciples, all of them had a sense of cheerfulness.

This is also one of the reasons why she is willing to come here to practice.

"With her keen eyesight, she will definitely be able to discover this seal."

The Great Elder smacked his lips when he heard this. He was impressed by his father's pretense again. Now that he had accepted a disciple with outstanding talent, he even became more talkative.

The inner courtyard is not much different from the outer courtyard, and is also composed of five peaks. However, unlike the outer courtyard, there are many niches carved out on these five peaks, and many disciples in white clothes are practicing in the niches.

The spiritual power of the inner courtyard is many times higher than that of the outer courtyard.

"This inner courtyard was created by a top-level expert, and this seal was also set by that expert." Elder Qingyun pointed to the mountain in the center and said, "This is the peak where the sect leader lives. There are two niches in this mountain. Choose one! Behind the niches are rooms."

Ling Changge nodded: "Thank you, Elder."

The Great Elder pointed to the mountain on the far left. "That's where my disciples and I practice. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me. The Sect Master hasn't returned to the sect for nearly a hundred years. Although he has accepted you as his disciple, it's still uncertain whether he can guide you in your practice." He coughed softly and stole a glance at Xu Chen. "It doesn't matter if you don't become my disciple. Once you join the sect, you'll still be considered my apprentice."

"Thank you, Great Elder."

Xu Chen waved his arm, and a flying spirit beast with a red crown and a white body appeared at everyone's feet, carrying Ling Changge and several elders towards the middle mountain. As for the other disciples, they could only watch their backs as they left, feeling envious.

"I have to practice hard. In a month, it will be the apprenticeship ceremony for the inner court disciples." A Wuji Sect disciple waved his arm and flew straight back to his own niche.

Upon hearing this, everyone headed towards their own niches. Qin Ling stood beside Miaoyun, moved her lips, and turned away without saying a word, leaving Miaoyun standing there, looking up into the air. It seemed as if she was looking at the flying spirit beast where Ling Changge and the others were sitting. However, if she looked at it herself, she could find that what she was looking at was not the flying spirit beast at all, but the niche on the mountain in the middle.

Two niches, does that mean the master can accept another disciple? Does that mean she has a chance?

"The other disciple's spot must be mine."

Arriving at the main hall, Ling Changge stood in the middle, Sect Master Xuchen sat in the main seat, and the other four elders sat on both sides.

"Since you've become my disciple, I have some things to say to you," Xu Chen said calmly. "Even if I don't say it, you should know that among the four major sects, we have a long-standing feud with the Tianshu Sect. As my disciple, despite your young age, your status within the sect is similar to that of the other elders. So, if you meet someone from the Tianshu Sect again, as long as they're not the Sect Master, you don't have to be polite with them."

Ling Changge was stunned when she heard this. She thought he was going to tell her not to cause trouble!

After all, it seems that all the troubles along the way were caused by myself.

"Have you remembered what your master said?" Xu Chen smiled and said, "Don't embarrass your master when you are out there."

Ling Changge raised the corner of his lips slightly: "Remember."

Seeing the smile on her lips, the Great Elder couldn't help but raise his brows.

This girl seems a little excited!

"You are very talented. When did you first become enlightened?" The elder stroked his beard and said with a smile, "There are no aristocratic families in Jinling City, but you are such a rare talent. I guess you must have been enlightened quite early."

When talking about this matter, Ling Changge's face looked a little unnatural.

It seems that it is not too early to enlighten myself.

"Why, you don't remember?"

When Elder Qingyun heard the Great Elder ask this, a mischievous smile appeared on his face.

"My disciple's enlightenment wasn't too early. He didn't have any spiritual roots before, and he got into a fight and his Dantian was shattered."

Hearing her say this, everyone's faces darkened.

"Which grandson did this?" The fourth elder slammed the table and shouted angrily, "How dare he do such a cruel thing? I will destroy him!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Fourth Elder. It's not necessary... Actually..."

"Chang Ge, since you are already a disciple of our Wuji Sect, you will not tolerate being bullied by others. Although we in the Wuji Sect do not cause trouble, we are not afraid if trouble comes to us. Tell me, where is that person?"

"My soul has been scattered."

"Soul..." The Fourth Elder paused: "Dead?"

"Yeah." Ling Changge smiled. "He shattered my Dantian, and I almost met my end. But I didn't expect that it would be a blessing in disguise. By chance, I actually awakened my spiritual roots, and my Dantian was repaired. My spiritual power increased rapidly. I didn't intend to kill him. He brought it upon himself. Knowing that he was no match for me, he attacked us Ling family disciples. Naturally, I will not spare his life."
