When asked, they said it was to groom Shen Sangri as the next sect leader.

And in other aspects, the requirements for her are also extremely high.

But when it came to Bai Mumu, after Shen Sanruo's cultivation was completely exhausted for the first time, Shen Daochen had the idea of ​​making Bai Mumu the young sect leader.

How did he treat Bai Mumu?

She was still pampered and spoiled.

It's just a matter of not being able to treat everyone equally.

Master Lingxiao also bestowed upon the injured Wen Xuan and the others excellent elixirs, and told them to go to the Discipline Department to receive their punishment.

Failing to protect Bai Mumu was a mistake.

Bai Mumu lost her chance to return to normal life because she failed to protect the hard-won Fire Scale Vine. This is her second mistake.

Wen Xuan and the others did not offer any explanation, as it was their fault to begin with.

As they were about to leave, Master Lingxiao realized that one person was missing.

They also remembered the original purpose of Wen Xuan and the others going down the mountain.

"Where is Chen Sangruo? Why didn't she come back with you?" Lingxiao Zhenren's eyes swept over them.

His gaze, though devoid of any discernible emotion, carried a hint of oppression.

He was already dissatisfied with Shen Sangruo for ignoring them and going down the mountain on her own, and now that he couldn't see Shen Sangruo, he felt even angrier.

To put it more bluntly, Shen Sangruo's actions constitute disrespect for his teachers and elders.

Lingxiao Zhenren has always disliked people with such stubborn and unruly temperaments.

"Reporting to Master, Fifth Junior Sister intends to continue her training to improve her cultivation, so she did not return with us," Wen Xuan said as he stepped forward.

She didn't tell Lingxiao Zhenren about the changes in her body or the unpleasantness between them.

Fearing that Lingxiao Zhenren would be angry with her, he said some nice things to her.

"Hmm." Master Lingxiao responded calmly, "It shows she has some ambition, so she hasn't disgraced the sect."

Lingxiao Zhenren's anger subsided somewhat.

After a moment, Master Lingxiao asked, "By the way, is she injured?"

"Fifth Junior Sister is not injured," Wen Xuan answered truthfully, intending to reassure Ling Xiao Zhenren.

As for the fact that Shen Sangruo almost lost her life, naturally they would only report the good news and not the bad.

But when Lingxiao Zhenren heard this, he frowned.

All the senior brothers and sisters were injured, but she was the only one who was completely unharmed?

That can only mean that either she hid behind them and cowered, or she cheated and shirked responsibility during the battle in order to stay safe.

How could there be such a cowardly disciple under Master Lingxiao?

Most importantly, even Bai Mumu stood at the forefront for her fellow disciples and suffered the most severe injuries.

How could Shen Sang be so shameless as to hide behind Bai Mumu?

In a short time, Lingxiao Zhenren had already imagined countless scenarios.

The initial sense of relief I felt for Shen Sangruo vanished into nothingness.

They were even more dissatisfied than before.

When she returns, he will definitely discipline her properly and correct her improper behavior.

Lingxiao Zhenren still showed little emotion, waving to Wen Xuan and the others.

"Step down."

Luo Chu heard that they had returned and quickly rushed over.

They had no reason to hide anything from Luo Chu, so they told him everything.

After hearing this, Luo Chu slammed his fist on the table in anger, "This Chen Sangruo is so heartless! I knew she wasn't a good person!"

"You're all injured, and instead of escorting you back to the sect, she runs off to train. Who knows if she's just using training as an excuse to have fun?"

Luo Chu thought this way because he often did the same thing.

Wen Xuan's face was extremely ugly. He had mentioned Shen Sangruo's near death and her changes several times.

Luo Chu's first reaction upon hearing this was not to show concern for her, but to criticize her.

"Xiao Chu, why are you so hostile towards Xiao Ruo?" Wen Xuan asked sternly.

"What else could it be? I've already said that I'm irreconcilable with her." Luo Chu said dismissively.

“I won’t give a kind look to someone as vicious as her who doesn’t care about the bonds between fellow disciples.”

"I will only consider forgiving her if she apologizes for what she did before; otherwise, I will always stand against her!"

Luo Chu spoke as if Shen Sangruo had wronged him, despite it being his own mistake.

Wen Xuan seemed to suddenly understand why Shen Sangri was unwilling to return to the sect.

Her senior brother was being so aggressive towards her.

Before this, Shen Sangruo had even faced prejudice from the four of them.

He couldn't understand why, when they had loved and cherished her so much before, they had unknowingly developed so many misunderstandings about her.

Now that Xiao Ruo is no longer willing to talk to them, Wen Xuan feels extremely tired.

Fortunately, the three of them realized their mistake in time, and if Shen Sangruo comes to her senses, they still have a chance to win her back.

After all, they've had a friendship for so many years, how could she just give it up like that?

I suppose I'll still have some feelings for them in my heart.

"Alright, I'll go check with Elder Yin to see if the custom-made travel jade tokens are finished." Wen Xuan got up and left.

His restrictions are special, and the production of the jade token also takes a considerable amount of time.

He wasn't in a hurry at first. He had assumed that Shen Sangruo would wait for them no matter what, but now he didn't think so anymore.

With Luo Chu as a point of comparison, he constantly reflected on where he might not have done enough for Shen Sangruo.

That's why I decided to urge them to get the jade token for Chen Sangri as soon as possible.

“Then I’ll go back and brew wine too,” Feng Heyun said.

Since Shen Sangruo doesn't like his osmanthus wine, then he'll make lotus wine, rose wine, peach wine, and all sorts of other wines.

He refused to believe it; surely there would be someone she liked.

Lu Shiqing said nothing, got up and went back to his cave.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk about it, but rather that he can't talk about what he did.

His deep gaze was fixed ahead, his thin lips pressed into a straight line.

He was going to administer the Seven Emotions Gu to Chen Sangri again.

This was the most effective way he could think of to test Shen Sangruo.

However, the process of refining the Seven Emotions Gu is extremely complicated.

Since he began practicing, he has only managed to refine two cups.

All of it was used on Chen Sangruo.

To some extent, he was quite willing to part with Chen Sangruo.

Lu Shiqing quickened his pace; he needed to refine the Seven Emotions Gu as soon as possible.

Seeing that they had all left and looked dissatisfied with her, Luo Chu felt even more disgusted with Chen Sangruo.

"That's ridiculous. I didn't say anything wrong."

"That annoying Shen Sangruo, what kind of bewitching potion did she give them?"

"Hmph, I won't be easily fooled by you. I've always remembered your true colors!"

In his mind, even if the sky were to fall, Shen Sangruo would never leave the sect. What they said about her not wanting to come back was mostly an act.

He wanted to see how long she could keep up the act.

As for Shen Sangruo, who almost lost her life in the secret realm, isn't she still alive and still has the mind to train and play?

"I'm going to find my junior sister. Her injuries are much more serious than Chen Sangruo's."

Luo Chu pouted and happily went to the main peak to find Bai Mumu.
