Chapter 74: The Tree Stands Out in the Forest
As one of the top ten sects, Qingyue Sect would have disciples assigned to it in almost every rotation of the hundred sects. These disciples who were sent here from outside did not receive the treatment they deserved after paying for their place here. On the contrary, many of them were always the targets of bullying.
There were also large and small sects among these disciples. Disciples from relatively medium and large sects had it better, but those from small sects were more miserable. Not only were they regarded as bumpkins, they were also often ridiculed and teased.
Chen Lan and the other three were all from a small sect, but they performed exceptionally well in this rotation of studies. Not only did they learn things quickly, they were also valued by several senior uncles from the Qingyue Sect.
Take Chen Lan for example. She learned Mo Jiuwei's cultivation method, ate a lot of mushrooms from the back mountain, and took Yuling water. Her comprehension and talent were also good, so she naturally became a leader.
Moreover, she was appreciated by Master Ruan Yuan, who had praised her several times in public and even wanted to poach her and bring her into the Qingyue Sect!
This action was known to Master Ruan Yuan's two female disciples, the pink-clothed and white-clothed female cultivators present at the time - Shen Rao and Meng Yuyu. They bore a grudge against them. They could not accept that there was a country bumpkin who was better than themselves, and they could not accept that their master accepted Chen Lan as his disciple.
Because if they did that, the two of them would become the laughing stock of the sect!
So they found Yu Cheng.
In the past, Yu Cheng was able to make money every time by relying on the rotation of studies. He would privately ask for benefits from these foreign disciples who came, saying that it was a salary subsidy and a tribute to inner disciples like him.
As long as they paid the money obediently, he would not cause trouble and would let them spend a peaceful month in Qingyue Gate.
He collected a lot of money, 500 crystal stones per person. In the past, the disciples who came here did not dare to cause trouble and would often swallow their anger and accept it.
Even if there are some troublemakers, as long as you reveal your identity, they will most likely give in.
But this time it was strange. Chen Lan and Liu Feng directly refused. Not to mention five hundred, they wouldn't even give five crystal stones.
Not only did they refuse to give it, they also took the lead in disobeying it, causing disciples from several other small sects to refuse as well, greatly losing face for Yu Cheng!
Forget about Liu Feng. He has a high level of cultivation and looks quite young. It seems that he has great potential. They dare not offend him directly.
In comparison, Chen Lan, who was weaker in cultivation but stood out from the crowd, became the target.
So Yu Cheng, Shen Rao and Meng Yuyu hit it off and tricked Chen Lan and two other disciples from small sects who refused to give benefits and performed outstandingly in this rotation of studies, and decided to teach them a lesson.
If he couldn't control them, wouldn't Yu Cheng lose face in the sect? !
Among the six people present, Yu Cheng, Shen Rao and Meng Yuyu are all inner disciples of Qingyue Sect, and the other three are external disciples who came to study in rotation.
These three people were very flattering to Cheng and regarded themselves as his followers since the first day, so they volunteered to participate in this matter.
"What did you do to Liu Feng?" Chen Lan asked, panting.
She was covered in cold sweat from the torture she had just experienced. Her clothes were all wet and sticky to her body, making her feel very uncomfortable.
And it stuck so tightly to her skin that her small wounds continued to hurt.
But she was fed a drug that blocked spiritual energy, so she couldn't use any of the spiritual energy in her body. She couldn't even cast a spell to dry her clothes.
"Haha, you have disturbed the Punishment Hall for no reason and broken the rules. Naturally, you will be punished with twenty soul-piercing whips." Yu Cheng said with a raised eyebrow.
Chen Lan's heart sank.
Soul-piercing Whip, even the name sounds creepy.
Uncle Liu...
"Why, do you feel guilty?" Yu Cheng asked with a smile, "How about you, do you want to give in? If you kowtow to me and admit your mistake, and then tell me the technique you practiced and give me the gift of sacrifice, maybe I will forgive you, let you and Liu Feng go, and let you stay until the end of the rotation."
Chen Lan moved the corner of his mouth, "I just have good aptitude, I don't have any skills at all, so naturally I can't tell you."
Everything else is easy to say. It's not that she can't bow her head for her uncle, but it's absolutely impossible for her to reveal the martial arts method!
Kung Fu is the practice method of grasping the spiritual points and the formula for quickly achieving emptiness and concentration.
This is the foundation for the disciples of Xianlai Sect to gain power, and it belongs to Jiuwei, and it must not be obtained by such an evil-minded person!
"Okay, you're still being stubborn. If that's the case, then I'm really angry."
Yu Cheng sneered, his face completely gloomy, then he glanced at the dark-faced male cultivator and signaled him to continue.
The dark-faced male cultivator had been holding the needle and had been ready. When he saw him give the order, he immediately let out a strange laugh and approached Chen Lan with the needle.
Chen Lan closed her eyes, her eyelashes trembling slightly.
The male cultivator squatted in front of her and stabbed her with a needle.
After stabbing it once, he pulled it out and deliberately placed it in front of Chen Lan so that she could see the blood stains on it.
Unfortunately, Chen Lan didn't open her eyes.
The male cultivator frowned, then smiled cruelly. This time he stabbed it in again, but the difference was that it was not just the tip of the needle that entered the skin, but the entire needle was hidden inside the body!
The needle was obviously very long, but it was completely inserted into the body, then flowed into the body and moved along with the blood.
"Um……"
It hurts. It hurts so much.
Chen Lan broke out in a cold sweat again and bit her lip to endure it.
[Damn it, it's actually bone gangrene! These people really deserve to die! ]
Mo Jiuwei was already so angry that she couldn't bear it anymore.
Chen Lan was stunned, and then suddenly opened her eyes wide -
What's going on?
Am I dying soon, so I am hallucinating?
Otherwise, how could I hear Jiuwei's voice?
At this time, Jiuwei should be in Xianlai Sect, which is thousands of miles away from here!
[Senior Sister Meng is already using the photo stone, Senior Sister Chen, you must hold back! ]
[Now that we have the evidence, we must teach these people a lesson! ]
Chen Lan's body trembled, but not because of pain, but because of excitement.
She vaguely saw a swaying edge of clothing at the corner of the cave.
There's someone there!
It wasn’t an illusion, it was actually Jiuwei!
There are Jiuwei and Meng Ling, they actually came!
At this moment, Chen Lan wanted to cry and laugh at the same time.
"Do you feel the pain now?" The male cultivator thought she was about to collapse from the pain, so he couldn't help but smile and took out another needle. "Do you like the needle to prick you, or do you like it to swim in your blood? I'll use whichever you like, how about it?"
"If you can't help it, just give in to Brother Yu. Otherwise, you will be unable to die and suffer immensely if you want to live."
Chen Lan was silent at first, and then suddenly became angry.
Using a photo stone?
In that case, she would have to play a big role.
"Yu Cheng, you are so brave!" she shouted.
