"My Qingfengzui!!!"

"My Rank 5 Spirit Fish!!!"

"Qin Ge, you old bastard, get out here right now!!!"

While the five disciples were enjoying their meal, the Grand Elder stormed onto Wuwang Peak in a rage.

The three disciples exchanged a glance, and then the eldest and second eldest brothers stood up simultaneously, swiftly grabbing their portions of spirit fish and Qingfeng Zui (a type of herbal drink), and without the slightest hesitation, they took off running...

Qin Wan: "..."

Murong Yan: "..."

Father Qin: "..." Unfilial son!!!

"Father? Should I go out and explain to the Grand Elder?"

Considering that Qin's father had just been hurt by his two apprentices, Qin Wan did not want to add fuel to the fire and hurt him again.

So she decided to retreat in order to advance...

"No need, one person does the deed and one person takes the blame, let..." Murong Yan go.

Qin's father was speaking when his eyes met Murong Yan's ambiguous gaze.

"Never mind, I'll do it myself," Qin's father sighed softly, resigned to his fate.

The main problem is... he has no choice but to accept his fate.

The two unfilial sons, the eldest and the second eldest, ran faster than anyone else.

Qin Wan is the only beloved daughter left by his wife. If something were to happen to her, how would he face going to the underworld to reunite with his deceased wife?

As for Murong Yan... he's a little tyrant, not someone he can afford to offend.

Thinking of this, before the Grand Elder could rush in, Qin's father swiftly destroyed the fifth-grade spirit fish in front of him and then quickly drank the Qingfeng Zui.

He slowly got up, straightened his wrinkled Taoist robe, and then walked towards the door.

Watching her father's departing figure, Qin Wan felt that his back looked somewhat pitiful...

"Aren't we going too far?" Qin Wan subconsciously looked at Murong Yan and asked.

"Really?" Murong Yan asked innocently.

"No?" Qin Wan stared straight at him.

Murong Yan: "..."

"The Grand Elder is, after all, an elder. How can we, the juniors, be expected to go out and greet him when he comes to our Wuwang Peak as a guest?"

Qin Wan: "..." That makes so much sense, I can't even refute it.

"Why don't we go out and take a look?" Qin Wan said with a reluctant expression.

Murong Yan glanced at her, a slight smile playing on his lips. "Don't worry, the Grand Elder can't beat the Sect Leader."

"I know that, but I'm worried that Father might hurt the Grand Elder if he doesn't hold back," Qin Wan said earnestly.

Murong Yan: "..." I dare not accept your answer.

"Ahem, since that's the case, let's go take a look." Murong Yan slowly got up and walked towards the door, carrying a jar of Qingfengzui wine.

"Qin Ge, you old geezer! You still won't admit it?"

"Who in the entire Tianyuan Sect, besides you, would be shameless enough to steal my Grade 5 Spirit Fish and Qingfeng Zui?"

The two had just reached the door when they heard the elder's angry cursing.

"Shangxuan, I've only just returned to the sect, don't you dare slander me!"

"I'm slandering someone? Bah! You dare to speak with your own conscience."

"How many people in the entire Tianyuan Sect are capable of stealing a Grade 5 spirit fish and Qingfeng Zui from my Tianjing Peak?"

"The two patriarchs are busy with their secluded cultivation and are incapable of doing such a thing."

"Although I don't like Feng Yi, I know he has plenty of good things and looks down on my few fifth-grade spirit fish and Qingfeng Zui."

"Besides them, who else but you, Qin Ge, could break the barrier I set up?" the Grand Elder angrily questioned.

There really was one person...

Qin's father muttered to himself silently.

However, Murong Yan's current identity is that of his disciple, and as his master, he can't betray his own disciple.

"It wasn't me anyway!"

Although he couldn't betray his apprentice, he absolutely couldn't admit to doing something he hadn't done!

"You're still trying to argue?!"

Just as Qin's father was thinking that since the Grand Elder had no evidence, as long as he denied it, the other party couldn't do anything to him...

The First Elder, Shang Xuan, suddenly raised his voice, his finger trembling as he pointed in the direction behind him, and questioned him in a shrill voice.

Qin's father felt a sudden jolt of fear, a sense of foreboding washing over him.

He turned his head to look...

Seeing Qin Wan and Murong Yan appear behind him at some unknown time, and seeing the Qingfengzui wine they were carrying, the "strong" expression on Qin's father's handsome face gradually cracked...

That's outrageous!

That's just too much!

We should not help him and let him take the blame.

At the crucial moment, his unfilial daughter and unfilial son even had to step in and sabotage him!

Qin's father gave Qin Wan and Murong Yan a resentful look, and then... he ran away without looking back.

Qin Wan: "???"

"Qin Ge, you old geezer! You stop right there!!!"

"I'm not done with you yet!!!"

The Grand Elder, carrying his natal magic weapon—a large sword slightly larger than himself—angrily chased after the direction Qin's father had fled.

"Father, you clearly could defeat the Grand Elder, so why did you run away?" Qin Wan asked Murong Yan, puzzled.

Murong Yan tapped his chin lightly with his folding fan, and after a moment's thought, said, "Perhaps he wants to find a secluded place to unleash his full potential."

Qin Wan: "..."

"Then... why did the Grand Elder still chase after them?" Qin Wan asked instinctively.

"When people are angry, they inevitably lose their rationality and act on instinct." Faced with her series of questions, Murong Yan patiently answered them one by one.

"Don't worry, the sect leader knows what he's doing and won't go too far." Murong Yan lightly touched her nose with his folding fan, comforting her with a smile.

Qin Wan: "..." She wasn't worried at all.

I just found the atmosphere of Tianyuan Sect quite fun.

Unlike some cultivation sects she had seen before, where people would stop at nothing to compete for resources and opportunities, and where it seemed extremely common for them to harm their own relatives and fellow disciples.

"By the way, does Senior Brother know when the Abyss Secret Realm will open?" Qin Wan suddenly asked as the two turned back to continue their meal.

"Well, if nothing unexpected happens, it will probably be in three days," Murong Yan patiently explained to her.

Are there any restrictions on the Abyss Realm? Can anyone enter it?

"Not exactly, only cultivators at the Golden Core stage and Nascent Soul stage can pass through."

"The Abyss Secret Realm is fraught with danger; if your cultivation level is too low, you'll die if you go in."

"Those with too high a cultivation level will break the rules of the secret realm if they enter."

"Only cultivators at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul levels can enter to hone their combat skills and gain various opportunities and treasures to improve their cultivation."

"Moreover, there's another reason why the Abyss Secret Realm opened ahead of schedule this time..." Murong Yan said mysteriously.

"What's so special about it?" Qin Wan asked him, looking at him expectantly.

"Have you ever heard of the great battle that took place 100,000 years ago?" Murong Yan looked down at her.

"I know," Qin Wan nodded. "That great battle is probably known to everyone in the cultivation world."

Upon hearing this, Murong Yan glanced at her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Under normal circumstances, that is indeed the case."

"But junior sister, your situation is special..."

Qin Wan: "???" That's a bit too much.

They actually discriminated against her because she couldn't cultivate!
