After saying this, Dong Jinghuan turned around and left.
Shu Gaoming's face was cold, and he narrowed his eyes slightly. Suddenly, he heard a shout from behind him. He turned around and saw that it was Dan Chenzi. His expression instantly softened: "Greetings, Elder Dan."
"You're too polite, nephew Shu."
Dan Chenzi came forward with a smile and asked, "I have something I want to inquire about. I wonder if Junior Brother Shu would be able to help me?"
Shu Gaoming suddenly realized, "Elder Dan wants to ask about Elder Yuan's whereabouts, right?"
Dan Chenzi was startled and asked, "Could it be that he also went to Xuanwang City?"
"good."
Shu Gaoming showed regret: "The Lu family's ancestral land is extremely dangerous. We lost many people in Hefeng, and Junior Brother Yuan also..."
"Did it fall?"
Dan Chenzi shook his head and sighed, "Fool! Not only was he deceived by his attendant, but he also ran off to his ancestral land to die. He can't blame anyone else for this fate."
Shu Gaoming could hear the indifference in his words and couldn't help but smile slightly, saying, "Please accept my condolences, Elder."
“It’s just a slight feeling.”
Dan Chenzi bowed and said, "I would also like to thank Junior-Martial Brother Shu for clearing up my doubts. Now... I will be returning home. Remember to come to the Dan Palace in three days to get the Mingjing Pill."
"Gao Ming has made a note of it."
After a few words, Dan Chenzi left.
Shu Gaoming waved his sleeves with his hands behind his back, and his figure floated into the air, but he did not fly towards his own mountain, but turned to fly towards Dangchen Peak.
At the same time, Dong Jinghuan had arrived in front of Dangchen Peak, and a cold shout echoed throughout the mountain.
"Guan Yuanzhi, come to the main hall to see me!"
Soon after the voice fell, the disciples in the mountain saw a figure hurriedly heading towards the hall on the top of the mountain.
For a moment, everyone was talking about it.
"Big Brother is so angry!"
"It must be because of what happened with Senior Brother Xiang. Senior Brother Guan really went too far."
"I never thought that Senior Brother's attendant was so lucky that he actually came back alive."
"real?"
"Of course it's true, I saw it with my own eyes..."
“…”
In the main hall at the summit, Guan Yuanzhi looked nervous as he hurried into the hall with his head lowered. Upon seeing his senior brother's familiar figure, he knelt down and saluted without a word: "Disciple Guan Yuanzhi, greetings to Senior Brother!"
Dong Jinghuan turned around and saw Guan Yuanzhi kneeling on the ground in an orderly manner. He was silent for a moment, then suddenly waved his sleeves and shouted angrily:
"You did a great job!"
This sleeve seemed to have a thousand pounds of force, and Guan Yuanzhi was swept away and hit hard against the pillar of the hall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He fell down, but didn't dare to do anything rash. He immediately knelt down again, "Big Brother, I know I was wrong! I will never cause trouble for Xiang Hongyu again. I won't dare to do it again!"
"Don't dare?"
Dong Jinghuan laughed out loud in anger: "The sect has a clear order. All formal disciples of the sect are not allowed to harm their fellow disciples. Once discovered, they will be expelled from the sect!"
Guan Yuanzhi shuddered upon hearing this, and suddenly looked up with wide eyes, panicking, "Big Brother, what on earth is going on? I admit that I was confused for a moment and ordered Hui Nu to kill someone. I really shouldn't have done that!
But didn’t Xiang Hongyu’s attendant come back alive? Disciple…”
"What did you say?!"
Dong Jinghuan interrupted Guan Yuanzhi, his face filled with surprise and shock. He raised his voice and asked, "You killed someone? And you killed Xiang Hongyu's attendant?"
"Big Brother..."
Guan Yuanzhi was stunned. "You don't know about this, then... then why..."
Bang!
A crisp slap echoed throughout the hall, and Guan Yuanzhi was slapped away again. This time he fell even farther, hanging on the wall of the hall for a long time before slowly sliding down. He lowered his head and vomited blood several times, spitting out a mouthful of teeth.
He looked up in horror, and saw Dong Jinghuan walking slowly towards him, feeling a fear he had never felt before.
The eldest brother is usually a kind person, so why is he so angry this time? What went wrong?
"It seems you still don't understand where you made a mistake."
Dong Jinghuan said indifferently, "It's because I've been too lenient with you guys. Well, considering this is your first offense, I won't expel you."
Guan Yuanzhi was immediately delighted, thinking that his senior brother still remembered their old friendship.
But before he could be happy, Dong Jinghuan suddenly took action and sealed his Dantian.
"I will seal your cultivation and punish you to labor in the chores room for three months. After three months, if you can return alive, you will continue to be an inner sect disciple. If not... you will be on your own!"
Dong Jinghuan snorted coldly and turned away.
"Big Brother!"
Guan Yuanzhi's face changed drastically, and he covered his mouth full of blood and shouted, but Dong Jinghuan did not react at all. In the blink of an eye, he left the hall and disappeared from sight.
Guan Yuanzhi was distraught and tears were streaming down his face.
How many disciples had he offended over the years by relying on Dong Jinghuan to bully others? He himself couldn't even remember how many people were waiting to take revenge on him once he was demoted to the general affairs room?
What’s the difference between that outcome and being expelled from the mountain?
"Big Brother, I've been by your side for thirty years. Are you really... so heartless..."
Guan Yuanzhi muttered to himself, but unfortunately the hall was empty and no one could hear what he said.
…
"The master is back!"
"The Master is back!"
“…”
In the mountain courtyard, the errand disciples rushed to tell each other.
Not long after, Qinji hurried towards the door, but there was no joy on his face, only anxiety and worry.
Miss Sheng has been missing for nearly two months. She has searched everywhere in the sect but has found no news. She is afraid that she is in grave danger.
The young master loves Miss Sheng very much. If she knew about this, there is no telling what she would do.
Just as he was thinking, the gate of the villa opened. Qin Ji looked up and saw Xiang Hongyu supporting Xiang Sheng in. He was immediately shocked and took two steps at a time to greet them.
