My System Seems Different from Theirs

“What? You’re saying that even with half a million troops under my command, the Emperor still suspects me of treason?”

“Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence....

Chapter 307 Master 5 (1/2)

Shen Xiaoxiao buried her head and slowly raised it. She looked at the dozen or so fellow disciples in front of her who she had been with for some time. They never talked to her, and rarely even nodded. Today... they were actually protecting her?

Jiang Leng knew that even though his side outnumbered them, they were no match for the enemy. So, during the verbal battle, Jiang Leng said, "We have been ordered by Master, and now we have urgent matters to attend to. If you delay things, I will have no choice but to return and report to Master."

"Is your master so great?" someone pointed at him and cursed. But then someone among the disciples watching the excitement spoke up: "Brother Hu Lai, Master Qingxu has reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul Stage. I suggest you think twice before you speak."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on these people's faces became interesting.

"Junior sister, let them go. We'll find another opportunity later."

Shen Wanwan felt like she was about to explode, but she couldn't get angry at her brothers, so she took a deep breath to suppress her anger and nodded: "You are lucky today, we have a long way to go!" She pointed at Shen Xiaoxiao.

Second Senior Brother is about to come back. He loves her the most, so she will go back to find him.

The group left in silence. As they walked out of the mountain gate, Shen Xiaoxiao suddenly whispered, "Thank you... Senior Brother."

When Jiang Leng heard the word "senior brother", his heart trembled. It was a feeling of shame. The others also lowered their heads. They all remembered how they had ignored this junior sister being bullied before.

Jiang Leng recalled what his master had said in his ear before he left.

"If someone provokes you and you can't beat them and come back to complain, that's understandable, I'll do it. But as fellow disciples, you're still the eldest brother. If you can't even protect your fellow brothers and sisters, I'll break your legs and throw you out!"

He felt that the teacher was not joking, and his tone was not joking either.

But he spoke not only because he was afraid of his master, but also because his master said that he was the eldest senior brother. He had never thought of it this way before, but... now they also have a master, and he should be the eldest senior brother.

This trip took three days. Under Jiang Leng's leadership, he arranged everything quite well, including accommodation and meals. They even had time to visit the ordinary people's market.

After this trip, these more than ten people finally felt like they were from the same school.

They hurried back with the clothes for making clothes. Not long after they passed the mountain gate, they were blocked by someone. It was still Shen Wanwan, and standing behind her was Ren Xuan, the second disciple of the Zongji.

"Greetings, fellow disciples. I heard that your master has come out of seclusion. I must have passed on some of his experience to you. I have come here today to ask for your advice." Ren Xuan was very smart. He knew that it was normal for disciples to quarrel with each other. Even if True Man Qingxu knew about it, he would have nothing to say.

At most, he can only blame his own disciples for not learning the skills well enough.

Who made them offend the junior sister he liked?

Seeing Ren Xuan's pretentious salute and provocative look, Jiang Leng and the others became uneasy. Competing with this outstanding young generation? How could it be possible!

Everyone knew that the other party was just using the excuse of fighting to deal with them.

Shen Wanwan was even more arrogant: "Senior brother, and that, my maid, she actually slapped me!"

Ren Xuan narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on Shen Xiaoxiao. This girl was skinny and petite, and didn't look that good, but she actually dared to hit his junior sister?

Jiang Leng stood up and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother Ren Xuan. The conflict between our Junior Sister and Junior Sister Shen Wanwan was a misunderstanding..."

Ren Xuan waved his hand to interrupt his defense, his tone adding a hint of teasing and contempt: "Why do you call Wanwan Junior Sister? Are you worthy?"

If it were at home, he would not even take these wastes seriously.
