People's joys and sorrows are not shared.
Compared to Ling Zheng's complex emotions, Fang Ruotang's were much simpler, filled with simple joy.
She was even humming a little tune.
She might have been happier if the two people beside her weren't watching her so intently.
"Alright, alright! I'll definitely tell you next time, but the situation was special just now. If I hadn't gone down to stop it quickly, Elder Ling would have been beaten to death."
Rong Xing and Ye Wuxia were both speechless.
I don't know what to say.
They were unhappy with Fang Ruotang's actions, but they also understood that they couldn't help her, so they just stared at her silently without saying anything.
"I know you're worried about me, but don't worry, I'm very strong!"
"……Um!"
The two remained the same.
Rong Xing is one thing, since he's always been a man of few words.
Fang Ruotang wasn't used to Ye Wuxia acting this way. She raised an eyebrow and asked with some interest, "Are you two being childish with me?"
Rong Xing and Ye Wuxia both found it absurd.
It wasn't that I was being petty; I just wanted to give her some advice, but I felt I didn't have the right to do so, which led to the current quiet situation.
"Seriously? Is she really throwing a tantrum?"
Fang Ruotang curiously leaned closer, her face suddenly appearing right in front of Ye Wuxia.
Even though Ye Wuxia was brave, her heart skipped a beat.
She giggled as her prank succeeded.
Ye Wuxia chuckled lightly and quickly composed herself.
Anyway, this relationship of a strong woman and a weak man has been going on for a while now, and there are five other people who are just as unhappy as him.
Thinking about it this way, Ye Wuxia was able to convince herself.
As long as he's not the worst one among the six, it's fine.
Furthermore, although their inability to defeat Fang Ruotang was a setback for them, it didn't make them feel inferior. After all, compared to the people of Dayong who were cultivating at the same time, they had already left those people far behind.
Rong Xing was clearly easier to coax than Ye Wuxia.
Fang Ruotang hooked his little finger around her finger, and he didn't resist at all. In Fang Ruotang's eyes, this meant that he had been coaxed.
The group returned to the Tianyi Sect's Sword Pavilion.
The gatekeepers at the foot of the mountain watched them with great enthusiasm.
After all, recruiting new members wasn't a secret; it was all issued as a task, and everyone in the sect knew what they were doing.
Therefore, Fang Ruotang walked ahead like a bandit, looking like he was returning with a full load of loot.
"Sect Master, did it go smoothly?"
"Successfully, successfully! Look, I even brought their sect leader and grand elder."
"Wow, Sect Master, you're amazing!"
"So-so, third in the world."
"No, no, no, Sect Master, you are the number one in the world, the number one person in heaven and earth. Your personal charm is too strong. Everyone who meets you will fall in love with you and submit to you."
Fang Ruotang laughed heartily and nodded to the disciples of the mountain gate.
"You're quite good. What's your name?"
She remembered that the last time she came back, he was the one flattering her.
"Disciple Chen Cheng."
"Alright! Go find the Second Elder and the Third Elder and see if you can pass their test so they can accept you as their disciple. If your aptitude doesn't meet the requirements, then go to Elder Wu of the outer sect. He's very kind to his disciples and his requirements aren't that high."
"Thank you, Sect Master! Thank you, Sect Master!"
Chen Cheng was overjoyed; he knew his son's qualifications perfectly well.
Having received this confirmation, he immediately made a decision: instead of going to see the Second Elder and the Third Elder, he would go directly to pay his respects to Elder Wu.
Although Elder Wu is only at the Nascent Soul stage, which is not enough to be considered a senior among the elders, it would be an honor for him to become Elder Wu's disciple.
Chen Cheng never expected that sincerely praising the sect leader would yield such a good result. This was something he never anticipated, even though he knew the sect leader liked to hear compliments.
But unexpectedly, a few kind words could bring about such an opportunity.
The disciple who was guarding the mountain gate with him looked on with envy, thinking that after Chen Cheng left, he would take over Chen Cheng's position and make sure to perform well every time the sect leader came and went, so as to satisfy her.
After news of Chen Cheng's extraordinary opportunity spread, it astonished all the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, adding another path to advancement into the inner sect.
But for the original disciples of Tianyi Sect, these were all commonplace occurrences, and they had long since figured them out.
For them, winning the sect leader's favor was a skill in itself, since there were too many people who wanted to curry favor with the sect leader.
It's not easy to both please her and leave a lasting impression.
Compared to the Sword Pavilion disciples who became unsettled upon learning the situation later, the disciples of the Heavenly Gang Sect were also quite surprised at this moment.
Having traveled the Cloud Deep Continent for so long, this is the first time I've seen such a perfunctory promotion of an inner disciple.
Fang Ruotang walked briskly towards the main hall.
On the way, she encountered Jin Wuyou, who had come to greet her.
"Sect Master, you're finally back."
"What's wrong? Is something the matter?"
"No! I just miss you."
Hehehe, I miss you too!
As Fang Ruotang spoke, she stepped forward and hugged Jin Wuyou.
Then she said to the group of elderly, weak, sick and disabled people behind her, "This is Jin Wuyou, the steward of our Tianyi Sect. She will take care of you. We'll talk about other things after you've recovered from your injuries."
“Deacon Jin, my name is Lu Jiangting. I’ll be troubling you from now on.”
As the leader of the Tiangang Sect, Lu Jiangting was naturally the one to handle the negotiations.
Now that he was already on Tianyi Sect's territory, Lu Jiangting didn't mention his identity as the sect leader of Tiangang Sect anymore.
Moreover, having just come up from the foot of the mountain, it's clear that everyone in the Tianyi Sect knows the purpose of their sect leader's trip and the identities of this group of people.
"No trouble at all, it's nothing!"
Jin Wuyou smiled and replied, noticing that the group of people had injuries of varying degrees, she said, "I'll take you to settle in first, and then I'll have the disciples from Baicaoyuan come and take a look at you."
Fang Ruotang was a little curious and tilted her head to look at Jin Wuyou.
Disciples of the Hundred Herbs Garden?
When did the disciples of medicine and alchemy reach a certain scale?
But thinking that they hadn't completely subdued the disciples of the Tiangang Sect, Fang Ruotang opened her mouth but didn't ask directly, letting people think that their Tianyi Sect was very large!
Fang Ruotang is the kind of person who kills but doesn't care about burying the dead. She originally wanted to run away when Jin Wuyou came, but then she saw Jiang Wangzhou arrive.
She immediately waved.
"Elder Jiang, come quickly. You should handle the negotiations here; you have experience."
Jiang Wangzhou paused in his steps.
He's incredibly experienced, almost like a god.
He couldn't help but roll his eyes at Fang Ruotang.
Then, with a big smile on her face, she walked towards Lu Jiangting.
"Sect Leader Lu, it's been a long time. Do you still remember me?"
"River……"
Lu Jiangting paused for a moment, unsure of what to call him.
Jiang Wangzhou said with a smile, "Sect Leader Lu, please don't feel uncomfortable. Just call me Elder Jiang. I have now led my disciples to join the Tianyi Sect and serve as the Second Elder of the Tianyi Sect."
Elder Jiang!
Lu Jiangting carefully examined Jiang Wangzhou and saw that his aura was not only peaceful but also cheerful. Just as the rumors said, he was living a very happy life in Tianyi Sect.
