Chapter 13 Clash with the Female Lead
"Fellow disciples, please stop!"
The sudden sound of a familiar, sweet voice made Ye Luo feel nauseous. Sure enough, Bai Ruoqian had arrived.
After much deliberation, he took out a mask from his storage bag and put it on. Since Bai Ruoqian had arrived, Su Yuyuan and his sycophants must have come as well.
Seeing Ye Luo put on a mask, Cen Feng asked in confusion, "Junior Brother, what are you doing?"
"Hehe, I'll tell you when I have time. This time I'm going to do something unexpected."
"???"
Ye Luo looked up at the building and sure enough, Bai Ruoqian, dressed in white, walked down gracefully, as if surrounded by stars.
She bowed gracefully to the crowd and said sweetly, "Fellow senior brothers, you are all the future hope of the Immortal Alliance, why not stop fighting?"
"May I ask who you are, fairy?"
Bai Ruoqian raised her chin slightly and smiled, "I am Bai Ruoqian of the Tianfeng Sect."
"Bai Ruoqian?"
"Is she Bai Ruoqian, the genius girl of the Tianfeng Sect? I heard that she has already reached the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining stage at such a young age!"
"Oh, so it's her!"
"I heard she's only thirteen years old; she has a bright future ahead of her!"
Bai Ruoqian was pleased with everyone's words, and a hint of smugness flashed across her face.
Hearing the praise from everyone, Su Yuyuan, standing beside him, had a look of pride on his doting face. He strode forward, clasped his hands in greeting, and said:
"Fellow Daoists, how about this: the losses caused by the two inns will be charged to my Tianfeng Sect. How about you all give my junior sister some face?"
The crowd exchanged bewildered glances; everyone could understand the implication of his words.
This is using the sect's name to publicly humiliate a woman.
Ye Luo looked up at the upstairs and sneered. The righteous and awe-inspiring appearance was quite convincing. He still vividly remembered the villainous face of the man who ruthlessly killed him when he forcibly took his Seven Cloud Lotus.
Hypocritical justice.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Ye Luo used magic to change her voice and sneered, "So what if I don't give her face?"
Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Ye Luo in astonishment. Everyone knew that the Tianfeng Sect had a strong foundation and was one of the top sects in the Immortal Alliance. Was he courting death?
Who are you?
"Your people."
Su Yuyuan's face darkened. "Are you provoking our Tianfeng Sect?"
Ye Luo chuckled, "So what if it is? Since you can say such a thing, you're no different from them. You just want to bully others by relying on your power. You even dare to jump out and act as a peacemaker. It's a huge joke!"
"How dare you!" Su Yuyuan roared in fury and unleashed his magical artifact. Bai Ruoqian quickly stopped him and gently calmed him down.
Ye Luo narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling a pang of regret. She had almost provoked him to make a move; as expected of the female lead, she was indeed intelligent.
Bai Ruoqian: "Fellow Daoist, what is your intention in stirring up trouble?"
Ye Luo shrugged and spread her hands. "Did I provoke you? I just couldn't stand your hypocritical appearance, so I spoke my mind."
Upon hearing this, Bai Ruo narrowed her eyes slightly and chuckled lightly, "We only want to end the conflict and are purely considering the future of the Immortal Alliance. You are so maliciously causing trouble, not daring to introduce yourself or show your true face. Are you some kind of demonic monster?"
"Yeah, could he be a demonic sorcerer?"
"Take off your mask!"
"If demonic cultivators were to infiltrate the forbidden area, that would be disastrous!"
"Who are you? State your sect and name!"
Seeing that all the signs pointed to him, Ye Luo couldn't help but admire Bai Ruoqian's cunning.
Just as she was about to retort, Cen Feng stepped out from beside her, pointed at Bai Ruoqian and angrily said, "You ugly monster! How could you possibly look at my junior brother's peerless beauty? I'm covering his face because I'm afraid you'll feel inferior!"
"??!"
Bai Ruoqian was pampered and spoiled wherever she went, so she was stunned when she heard these words. By the time she realized what was happening, she felt like her lungs were about to explode.
"You, you—!"
Ye Luo originally wanted to say something, but seeing Cen Feng like this, she was overjoyed.
In the original novel, Cen Feng's tragic fate stemmed from his love for the female lead. He was somewhat worried about her in Wuling City last time, so it seems that this has broken the curse of "love at first sight"?
A sly glint flashed in Ye Luo's eyes as she said aggrievedly, "Fifth Senior Brother, this Bai Ruoqian used to bully me because of our sect. Last time, she almost killed me. I was only saved because Master happened to pass by..."
"So that's how it is!" Cen Feng glared at Bai Ruoqian and cursed, "You woman are truly heartless and venomous, a wolf in sheep's clothing! What kind of genius girl from a great sect is this? Bah!"
Bai Ruoqian: "???"
Seeing this, Su Yuyuan angrily retorted, "You're spouting nonsense! My junior sister is of noble character and is not at all like what he says!"
Cen Feng, unconvinced, retorted angrily, "You're talking nonsense! My junior brother is beautiful inside and out, gentle and refined, intelligent and kind-hearted, dignified and virtuous, graceful and gentle, understanding and compassionate, pure and noble, and upright and honest! What he says goes!"
Ye Luo: "???"
Everyone: "…………"
Ye Luo was on the verge of tears, and suddenly wanted to shut him up. How could these words be used so carelessly?
The cultivators at the two inns, who were at a truce, couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment as they watched the two men exchanging insults like chickens pecking at each other.
Seeing that the two sides were deadlocked, those who were inclined towards the Tianfeng faction began to chime in, "Junior Sister Ruoqian is right, it would be best to try to stop the fighting."
"That's right, Junior Sister Ruoqian is truly thinking of our Immortal Alliance, so why should she be slandered by such petty people!"
"I support Junior Sister Ruoqian!"
Bai Ruoqian's eyes revealed a smug look. Being from a major sect, she had a significant advantage no matter what, which was incomparable to these rogue cultivators.
Looking at her, Ye Luo narrowed his eyes and changed the subject, chuckling, "Since it's for the future of the Immortal Alliance, shouldn't the Heavenly Wind Sect set an example? Don't just talk the talk but walk the walk!"
Bai Ruoqian frowned slightly. "Exemplary role model? What does that mean?"
Ye Luo played with the folding fan in her hand, a mischievous look in her eyes, "Your Tianfeng Sect keeps saying 'for the future of the Immortal Alliance,' but every time you enter the secret realm, you are the ones who fight the hardest."
"Since that's the case, why don't you turn back and leave all the spiritual plants and treasures in this forbidden area to us, the rising stars? Wouldn't that better demonstrate the virtue of the Heavenly Wind Sect?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present began to make their own calculations. Why not have one less powerful sect competing with them for the treasure?
A moment later, the wind direction suddenly changed, and someone in the crowd jumped out and angrily said, "You're right! Last time in the secret realm, I was injured by the people from the Tianfeng Sect, and they even stole my spiritual herbs!"
The independent cultivators at the inn across the street, who already disliked the hypocrisy of those major sects, began to watch the show and mock them.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a bunch of hypocritical bastards, they're more ruthless than anyone else when it comes to underhanded tactics."
"The people of the Tianfeng Sect are indeed hypocritical; all they do is engage in empty talk!"
"I think he's right. The Tianfeng Sect should set an example!"
"That's right, hahaha!"
At this moment, Bai Ruoqian's face was pale, she clutched Su Yuyuan's sleeve, her eyes were red and her face was full of grievance.
Su Yuyuan felt a pang of heartache upon seeing this, his eyes bloodshot as he swept over the crowd, "Don't even think about it!"
