Chapter 458: Relief



Zhou Niaoniao's face looked a little ugly when she saw that Xiang Jianjue and Lin Shuang were chatting smoothly.

Just then, a dark figure walked in from outside the door.

Zhou Niaoniao was facing the door. When she saw the person coming, her eyes lit up immediately. She raised her head and said in a delicate voice:

"Uncle Xiang, I know you came from Dongzhou and cultivated on your own to reach your current status. It's extremely difficult. Why would you offend our Zhou family for a small inner sect?

Our Zhou family is a great family of cultivators, with members spread far and wide within the sect. If you offend us too severely, you will suffer greatly in the future within the sect.

Besides... this is the territory of Qing Jianmai after all. If the disciples are wrong or not, it is up to the Qing Jianmai's true masters to decide.

If Uncle Xiang has the heart to meddle in other people's affairs, it would be better for him to go back earlier and not delay his cultivation."

After these words were spoken, there was a dead silence in the place.

Xiang Jianjue had an indifferent expression and did not move at all.

Lin Shuang was also facing the gate of the Law Enforcement Hall, and naturally had seen Yuan Wanyin approaching quickly, and her heart couldn't help but drop.

Looking at Jian Jue again, he realized that his words were as good as gold. He really wanted to confront Yuan Wanyin head-on for him, and he felt guilty and resentful.

I felt guilty for involving my uncle in a dispute that he shouldn't have been involved in, and I hated myself for being useless.

Or, should she just forget it? Uncle Xiang was so kind to her, she shouldn't cause him any trouble.

But she had already said the word "evidence". If she really gave up, the evidence would definitely not be preserved.

If she encourages Zhou Niaoniao's arrogance, her situation will become even worse...

She was wavering in her heart, and before she could think clearly, she saw Yuan Wanyin walk in with a gentle smile on her face:

"Brother Xiang, I also heard a few words outside. This matter is not difficult to handle."

As she spoke, she looked at Lin Shuang tenderly, "Junior Brother Lin, bring out the evidence. If Zhou Niaoniao really plotted against you and caused you to miss out on the promotion to a core disciple, I will not let her off easily!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Niao Niao's expression suddenly changed, "Cousin..."

"You still know that I'm your cousin?"

Yuan Wanyin turned to look at Zhou Niaoniao with a cold expression: "You'd better not make a big mistake, otherwise Liu Man will end up like you!"

Zhou Niaoniao was so scared that her whole body trembled and her mind went blank.

Yuan Wanyin didn't look again and turned to look at Lin Shuang.

Sensing the gaze coming towards him, Lin Shuang immediately woke up from his daze and hurriedly took out a palm-sized transparent stone from the storage ring.

"Photostone?"

Yuan Wanyin was surprised, "You actually have such a treasure."

"This is what the disciple found by chance."

Lin Shuang explained carefully, placed the image stone on the ground, rubbed it for a while, and immediately an image was projected into the void.

The person in the picture was Zhou Niaoniao.

She seemed to be in front of a secret realm. She pulled an ordinary elder who was in charge of controlling the secret realm to a deserted place and asked, "How are the preparations going?"

The ordinary elder nodded quickly and said, "Everything will be as you arrange. The assessment area I am responsible for is exactly where Lin Shuang is.

The puppet she has to deal with is two levels higher than the others."

"very good."

Zhou Niaoniao in the video showed a smug look: "It's still the same old rule. Don't let her have a chance to speak during the assessment. When she wakes up, I will secretly warn her."

"No problem."

After the ordinary elder agreed, he hesitated for a moment and said, "What did you say before..."

"You haven't accomplished anything yet, and you're already thinking about the reward?"

Zhou Niaoniao showed impatience. "Don't worry, when the matter is done and the time is right, I will recommend you to my cousin and transfer you to a more lucrative position."

The image does not end here, there is still a long blank space behind it.

But for both sides on the field, this is enough.

Yuan Wanyin's face turned pale. He waved his sleeve to sweep away the image and cast a sharp gaze at Zhou Niaoniao.

Zhou Niaoniao's face turned pale, and her whole body was shaking like a sieve: "Cousin, please listen to my explanation..."

"Explain what?"

Yuan Wanyin sneered: "I didn't know that your acting skills are so amazing.

While pretending to be well-behaved and sensible in front of me, he used my name to do bad things outside.

Zhou Niaoniao, you are so brave! "

Zhou Niaoniao's legs went soft and she knelt on the ground, then she quickly crawled over and hugged Yuan Wanyin's thighs.

"Cousin, I know I was wrong! Please forgive me this time, I will never do this again!"

Yuan Wanyin looked disgusted and kicked Zhou Niaoniao away hard, knocking the latter unconscious.

She has been practicing Buddhism and has always acted uprightly. She hates sinister villains the most!

What's the difference between Zhou Niaoniao using her reputation to plot against others and directly throwing shit on her?

It's just disgusting!

She was too lazy to look at Zhou Niaoniao anymore, and turned back to look at Lin Shuang, her expression softening:

"Junior Brother Lin, although Zhou Niaoniao didn't kill you, she delayed your cultivation for twenty years, and her guilt is not shallow.

I will punish her by sending her to Hanyu Valley to practice asceticism for twenty years. Are you satisfied?"

Lin Shuang's eyes lit up when she heard this.

What is Hanyu Valley?

That is the famous place of punishment in the Sword Sect. Not only is it impossible to practice in there, but one also has to suffer from cold rain from time to time.

For an inner disciple to stay there for twenty years is enough to cost him half his life.

She was very satisfied with this punishment, but she didn't agree to it immediately. Instead, she turned her gaze to Xiang Jianjue.

Xiang Jianjue smiled faintly: "Senior Sister Yuan is fair, which makes me seem useless."

"I was joking with my junior brother."

Yuan Wanyin's smile was a bit forced. "If it weren't for you today, I don't know how long it would take me to discover Zhou Niaoniao's true face. I should be thanking you."

"Senior Sister Yuan, you are too kind. It is Junior Brother who has overstepped the mark."

Xiang Jianjue didn't care whether what the other party said was sincere or just a courtesy. He said it modestly and bowed to take his leave.

"Uncle Xiang, I'll take you there!"

Lin Shuang took the initiative to follow, her figure jumping with joy. As the two of them left the Law Enforcement Hall, there was another person behind them.

It was the outer sect disciple Yu Wei who followed cautiously.

Yuan Wanyin looked at the backs of the three people leaving and smiled bitterly.

She meant her thank you sincerely.

She naturally saw Lin Shuang's subconscious reaction just now.

Lin Shuang should have been under her protection, but in the end, she was bullied because of her, with nowhere to turn to for help. She wasted twenty years of her training, and the Sword Master of the Palace had only been in office for half a year...

It was her fault for neglecting this matter, and no one else could be blamed.

Thinking of this, Yuan Wanyin suddenly felt that making trouble for Jianjue might not be a bad thing.

The Wanmai Sword Sect has always been strict in its style. On the surface, it seems to be infallible, but in fact, it is a bit dirty, just like Zhou Niaoniao, who is hidden very deeply and difficult to detect.

The Sword Master of the Li Palace has been letting things go for half a year. Those things hiding in the dark have become much more restless, and many injustices have surfaced.

As long as Junior Brother Xiang keeps persisting like this, more victimized disciples will muster up the courage to stand up and seek justice for themselves.

But if this happens, Junior Brother Xiang’s situation will be extremely dangerous...

She also heard that Junior Brother Xiang had been visiting his new master every day for the past six months, but had only met him a few times.

Will the Sword Master of Lidian really protect Xiang Jianjue's safety?

"no!"

Thinking of this, Yuan Wanyin's eyes showed a bit of anxiety: "The Lidian Sword Master is probably unreliable! I need to discuss this matter with Master."
