Hearing his master's somewhat anxious voice, Wang Qiuchi felt even more smug.
A smirk played on his lips, a malicious glint in his eyes, as he hastily spoke into the communication talisman:
“Master, all I asked was for Bai Ying to give up her position as team leader. But guess what? She actually spouted nonsense, saying that even if you were here in person, you wouldn't dare to speak to her like that! Listen to what she's saying! It's utterly arrogant and outrageous!”
As Wang Qiuchi embellished his story, he secretly plotted in his heart, wishing that his master would appear immediately and severely punish this arrogant Bai Ying.
He cleared his throat, preparing to continue complaining: "Master, I think..." He originally intended to suggest that he take the initiative to give Bai Ying a warning and teach her a lesson.
However, before he could speak, a voice suddenly called out from the other end of the communication talisman, "What...did you say?" Then there was a crisp "snap" as his master had cut off the communication talisman.
Wang Qiuchi was stunned for a moment, then realized that based on his understanding of his master, his master must be furious and was probably rushing over to give Bai Ying a lesson she would never forget.
Thinking this, a smug smile appeared on Wang Qiuchi's face, as if he could already see Bai Ying being scolded by her master and looking disheveled.
Although Bai Ying had Elder Qi Haoyuan backing her up, in Wang Qiuchi's heart, cultivators always upheld the belief of not fearing power. The thought of having someone like Bai Ying, whom he considered "trash," as the team leader filled Wang Qiuchi with disdain; he found her utterly unpleasant.
You have to understand that the team leader bears the heavy responsibility of the entire team. With such a heavy responsibility, how could Bai Ying possibly be up to it?
Moreover, the team leader has the right to give priority to distributing the team's loot.
Wang Qiuchi became angrier the more he thought about it. If Bai Ying was acting out of selfishness and took all the good things for herself, wouldn't all their hard work have been in vain and all their efforts have been for nothing?
Wang Qiuchi, filled with resentment, slowly put down the communication talisman that had already been hung up, a mocking sneer on his face. He looked up at Bai Ying and shouted, "Hmph, my master is about to arrive. Why don't you hurry up and apologize to us and obediently give up your position as team leader?"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of his usual henchmen, who always obeyed him without question, lit up instantly. They were all as if they'd been injected with adrenaline, echoing his sentiments. "That's right! Quickly apologize to the Sect Master of the Crane Cloud Sect! The Sect Master of the Crane Cloud Sect is incredibly noble; how dare a nobody like you slander him?"
"Even Elder Qi Haoyuan wouldn't dare say such a thing. If you don't apologize, you'll be making an enemy of the entire Heyun Sect!"
These people looked extremely arrogant. Wang Qiuchi even said to Bai Ying, "Bai Ying, if I were you, I would have already given up the leader position. Cultivators are all about the capable, and you are simply not cut out to be the leader. You will regret it if you keep occupying this position. Now I'm giving you a chance. Apologize to everyone in our Crane Cloud Sect right now, or you'll be in big trouble when my master arrives!"
Wang Qiuchi looked at Bai Ying with unusual smugness, but to his surprise, Bai Ying seemed not to have heard a word he said. She said calmly, "I'll give you a chance. Apologize to me now, or you'll be in big trouble when your master arrives. I think your master will definitely teach you a lesson."
Upon hearing Bai Ying's words, Wang Qiuchi's expression immediately turned extremely ugly.
"Very well! I never expected you to be so audacious as to say such things. Since that's the case, there's no need to wait for my master to come in person. I'll teach you a good lesson on his behalf!"
Wang Qiuchi is at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage. Although he is not the most powerful among these elite disciples, he is more than capable of disciplining a teenage girl.
He stomped his feet hard, and the spiritual energy around him instantly surged and became chaotic. The powerful pressure was like a roaring beast, surging towards Bai Ying's location with overwhelming force.
Among cultivators of their age, those at the Nascent Soul stage are extremely rare, and Wang Qiuchi, as a powerful cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, exudes a pressure that is enough to make ordinary cultivators' legs go weak and kneel down.
At this moment, he wanted to make Bai Ying kneel down in front of everyone, to completely crush her arrogance, and to let everyone see that Bai Ying was not worthy of being their captain.
As soon as Wang Qiuchi released his oppressive aura, the cultivators around him, whose cultivation levels were lower than his, reacted. Some turned deathly pale instantly, large beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads, their bodies trembling uncontrollably; others couldn't help but let out painful groans, their steps faltering as if being violently pulled by an invisible force. However, to everyone's astonishment, Bai Ying, Wang Qiuchi's target, remained completely unaffected. Her expression remained unchanged, her eyes calm as still water, as she calmly looked at Wang Qiuchi, as if the overwhelming oppressive aura before her was nothing more than a gentle breeze.
Wang Qiuchi could hardly believe his eyes. He stared wide-eyed at Bai Ying, secretly guessing that Bai Ying was only pretending to be calm. At this moment, she must be in a state of panic and might not be able to hold on for another second.
Thinking this, Wang Qiuchi sneered, clenching his teeth. He once again gathered all his spiritual power and released his oppressive aura without reservation. This time, his entire face turned red, and veins bulged on his forehead.
