Xiao Feng thought the sect leader and elders would believe Liu Chengfeng, but the sect leader knew his character and wanted him to tell the whole story himself.
Xiao Feng walked up to the sect leader, bowed respectfully, and recounted what had just happened.
Of course, this time he didn't deliberately hide the matter of the beads and revealed the source of their conflict.
The sect leader frowned slightly as he listened to Lu Xue'er and Xiao Feng fighting over a bead: "Did you two obtain this bead together?"
Without Xiao Feng killing the ferocious beast, Lu Xue'er would not have been able to bring the bead back successfully.
Without Lu Xue'er leading the way, Xiao Feng had no idea where the bead was.
As a result, the sect leader was unsure how to determine the ownership of the beads.
If the sect leader were to hand the bead over to Lu Xue'er, Xiao Feng would very likely blame himself, which would not be a good thing for her.
Similarly, if the bead remained in Xiao Feng's hands, Lu Xue'er would not agree to it either.
Just then, Lu Xue'er's elder master came to the sect leader with a serious expression: "Everyone has a mission when they go down the mountain for training. Why should Xiao Feng help?"
Upon hearing this, many disciples began to point fingers and criticize, feeling that they were somewhat heartless.
Just from Lu Xue'er and Xiao Feng's words, it was clear that the cave was extremely dangerous.
Lu Xue'er and her disciples were unable to defeat the ferocious beasts in the cave, otherwise she wouldn't have kept pestering Xiao Feng.
The sect leader was somewhat troubled as he saw that the elders and the disciples of the Green Sect had different opinions.
Now, no matter whose side she stands on, she could offend the other side, which would be fatal for the sect leader.
Xiao Feng noticed the sect leader's troubled expression and understood that she had no choice. He took a few steps forward and said, "This disciple does have a way to divide this bead."
When everyone heard that Xiao Feng wanted to take the initiative to divide the beads, they all turned their attention to him, wanting to see how he would divide the beads.
He pointed in Lu Xue'er's direction and said, "Without Lu Xue'er leading us there, we definitely wouldn't have been able to get this bead. Their contribution is indispensable."
At this point, Xiao Feng paused deliberately, then continued, "I suggest we split the credit equally, half for each of us, since I risked my life to protect you."
If his strength hadn't inexplicably increased to the seventh rank back then, he would have been no match for that ferocious beast.
From beginning to end, Lu Xue'er had no intention of turning back to help; all she could think about was getting the beads and leaving as quickly as possible. She never even considered that Xiao Feng might die there.
Hearing that Xiao Feng wanted to attribute the credit to Lu Xue'er, those nearby immediately stepped forward: "We can't attribute the credit to her. Back then..."
Before the others could finish explaining what happened next, Xiao Feng glared at them and said, "I protected you and got the bead out. I'm in charge."
Besides, the people around him were his disciples, and they had no way to refute him.
He glanced at Xiao Feng, then retreated with a look of resentment, standing beside Shen Qingchen.
Lu Xue'er looked at Xiao Feng in surprise. She had thought that all her credit would be taken away, but no one expected that Xiao Feng would actually share half of the credit with her.
Indeed, without his desperate resistance, Lu Xue'er would have had no chance of taking the bead away.
For some reason, she felt guilty and kept thinking that she had wronged Xiao Feng.
Just then, Xiao Feng glanced at the sect leader and elders: "I have something else to report. This matter is of great importance, you see..."
The sect leader's gaze shifted from Xiao Feng to the others beside him; how could he not know that Xiao Feng wanted to get rid of the other disciples?
The sect leader waved to the other Qingzong disciples: "You've just returned, go back to your rooms and rest."
Although the disciples of the Qing Sect wanted to stay, they had no choice but to leave since the sect leader had already spoken.
Seeing that all the Qingzong disciples had left, Xiao Feng nodded in the direction of Liu Chengfeng.
Before long, the immortal was brought out by their people and thrown violently to the ground.
Xiao Feng looked at the immortal's face, which was covered in redness and swelling, and couldn't help but glare at Liu Chengfeng.
He clearly remembered that when he arrested the man, he had no injuries on his face at all; no one expected that he would have so many wounds now.
Liu Chengfeng noticed Xiao Feng's dissatisfaction and looked away, unwilling to confront Xiao Feng.
The elder looked at the group of people who brought one person up, his face full of incomprehension: "I don't understand what you mean by this?"
They had never seen this person before, so they naturally didn't know why they had brought him up.
Xiao Feng carefully observed the elders' expressions and realized that they might not really recognize this person. He took a deep breath and said, "He claims to be a disciple of our Qing Sect."
Before he could finish speaking, the person next to him said, "Yes, he was swindling people in the nearby villages. We happened to run into him and arrested him."
Upon learning that someone was impersonating their disciple and swindling people, the elders instinctively approached the man and scrutinized him, saying, "Let us take a closer look."
In their minds, the Qing Sect was not far from the nearby villages, and it was very possible that Qing Sect disciples were secretly going down the mountain.
The sect leader saw that the elders had already gone downstairs, while she returned to her seat with an indifferent expression.
As they approached, Xiao Feng added, "He can call you by name, so I suspect he might actually be a disciple of the Qing Sect."
However, he had never seen this person in the Qing Sect, so Xiao Feng felt that this person was very likely a former disciple of the Qing Sect.
The elders looked Xiao Feng over carefully after hearing what he said.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, one of the elders widened his eyes: "This...this isn't our disciple, this is our junior brother!"
Many people present were stunned by those few words.
As everyone knows, the elders of the Azure Sect are all disciples who stayed behind in the sect and were promoted to their positions.
If the man in front of them was their junior brother, he must have a high level of seniority in the Qing Sect.
Xiao Feng knew this wasn't the time for him to interrupt, so he slowly took a step back, leaving the situation to them, wanting to see what they had to say.
The elder who recognized him assumed that everyone else would recognize him, but when he looked up, he found all the elders staring at him with blank expressions, so he quickly explained.
"Haven't you realized yet? He's our junior brother Du Huasheng, who's been missing for many years."
Upon hearing his name, the elders quickly turned their attention to Du Huasheng, trying to ascertain his identity.
Seeing the confused looks on the faces of many elders, Xiao Feng remained skeptical, believing that this person was not one of their Qing Sect members.
