Chapter 297: The Promised Dojo to Decide the Winner
"stop!"
A resounding voice rang out, but it was like a needle dropped into water, not even a ripple appeared. Although the voice was full of energy, only Lingxiang and the others near the door heard it. The hall was still in chaos.
At this moment, two people walked in from the door. One of them wore a high crown with his hair tied up, and a brown robe with wide sleeves. He looked very majestic, and following behind him was Lu Ying.
"Stop! This is disgraceful!"
The man shouted again, but this time his voice was drowned out by the noise and chaos.
Looking at Lu Ying with a helpless look on his face and the person who came with a frown and angry eyes, Lingxiang sighed, turned around to look at the four people who were gloating, and could only roll her eyes.
"Oh! Man!"
None of the men are reliable!
Lingxiang sighed, then took out a yellow talisman from her bosom, twisted her fingers, blew on it, and then threw it.
I saw the yellow talisman flying straight towards the center of Youyuan Palace. When it reached mid-air, it suddenly ignited. At that moment...
"What are you making such a fuss about? You're rebelling!"
Like a thunderclap, it exploded in the hall, circling endlessly and lingering around the beams. The old ashes from the beams also fell down sparsely along with the ashes of the talisman.
The constant noise just now suddenly stopped. There was no other movement in the hall except the creaking of old wood.
The disciples looked at each other in shock, not daring to breathe, for fear that any noise would cause the entire hall to collapse.
“Crack, crack…”
The sound of fruit shells being ripped came from the corner at an inopportune moment. Everyone in the hall looked over there at the same time, only to see Lingxiang concentrating on peeling pine seeds.
As if aware of the others' greetings, Lingxiang raised her head and said calmly, "Go on, keep fighting! You're done fighting before you've even cracked all the pine seeds? I haven't seen enough of the fun!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the disciples in the green Taoist robes in the hall stood up straight, bowed, and said, "Greetings, Elder Fu Cang."
When the disciples in grey Taoist robes saw that these disciples had kept quiet, they also hurriedly followed suit and saluted.
Is this Elder Fu Cang?
The man at the door of the hall looked at Lingxiang, a flash of surprise in his eyes, then he stepped forward, bowed, and introduced his name.
"The second disciple of the Grand Master Hui Yan greets Elder Fu Cang."
Hearing this, Lingxiang turned around with a smile on her face and raised her hand and said, "So you are Uncle Lieyang's top disciple. It's easy to talk to you. You don't have to be polite."
Seeing Lingxiang's smile, Huiyan also smiled: "These junior brothers of mine are still in the early stages of the Dao, and they are inevitably worldly. As outsiders, they have quarreled with the Yuanqing Sect and deserve to be punished. But for the sake of Master, I hope Elder Fu Cang will forgive them. I will report this to Master later and he will punish them severely."
After thinking about it for a moment, Lingxiang felt that Hui Yan was really good at speaking. With just one sentence, he had corrected the mistake in half.
What this person meant was that my family was wrong, but my family is young and it is understandable that they are unreasonable. It is strange that you, a famous sect and the head of the sect, can fight with us.
"You are worthy of being the nephew of Master Xunfeng. The director's judgment is really fair." Lingxiang smiled and stuffed a pine seed into her mouth.
Although the Taishang Sect was a rising star, who in the underworld didn't know about Xunfeng Zhenren's reputation for being stingy and protective of his subordinates? Lingxiang didn't mention Huiyan was a disciple of Lieyang Zhenren, but insisted on bringing Xunfeng Zhenren into the picture. The implication was self-evident.
Hui Yan's expression froze when he heard this, but he returned to normal in an instant: "Thank you so much, how dare I compare myself to my uncle-master, it's just that Master taught me well."
"Of course, of course. Your Excellency, why are you being so modest? Although the Tai Shang Sect was established not long ago, it is already extremely prestigious. In many things, an old sect like Yuan Qing cannot match it."
It sounded like a polite remark, but Lingxiang's reaction was rather nonchalant, as if she didn't care who was right or wrong in this chaos.
Hui Yan couldn't help but frown, as if he had punched something like cotton.
The two of them kept making excuses, which made Lu Ying, who was standing behind Hui Yan, look very embarrassed.
In terms of relationship, one is his senior brother from the same school, and in terms of affection, the other saved his life, and they even shared hardships. Now he is caught in the middle and doesn't know who to speak to.
Got it!
Lu Ying suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly stepped forward to pay his respects. "Miss Lingxiang, we talked about becoming brother and sister in the Supreme Sect before. Now it seems that I should call you Senior Sister."
This gives both sides a way out. If they want to resolve the dispute, this is their chance to back down.
"Yes, yes, honestly I should call you senior sister." Hui Yan said as she was about to bow.
However, they overestimated the spiritual incense.
Although Lingxiang is easy-going and never cares about gains and losses with others, she is a vengeful person. Huiyan just blocked her, how could she let it go?
Besides, she is the one in charge of Yuan Qing now, and these disciples of the Supreme Sect are still talking nonsense. Could it be that they think they can control her because of her youth?
Tsk! That's impossible!
"Shut up!" Lingxiang immediately shouted, "Who is your senior sister?!"
This loud shout startled Hui Yan who was about to salute. Even Long Qi and others who were watching the show on the side were not prepared for Lingxiang's sudden attack.
It seems that the little girl doesn't want to keep quiet. Now it's time to watch a good show.
Long Qi looked gloating as he raised his head towards Xinyi, but the latter still had his hands behind his back, with only a barely perceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.
As expected, Lingxiang began to sing like falling pearls: "You are just a disciple of the Supreme Sect, yet you dare to call me, the Ninth Elder of the Yuanqing Sect, your senior sister and your junior brother? Could it be that you have recently come to Yuanqing and witnessed the vastness of Jiuque Mountain, so you want to betray your master and join Yuanqing?"
"After all, my Yuanqing sect is a reputable and upright one. We won't accept just anyone. Even if I did accept you, you would still have to address me as Senior Sister. You're dreaming of being on equal terms, but I'm afraid you won't have that chance. The previous headmaster passed away thirteen years ago. If you truly wish to join my sect, I have a way. Either white silk or poisoned wine will get you to see him."
"True Master Lieyang is indeed a disciple of the founder of Yuanqing, Patriarch Wuwei, but he was driven down the mountain. Since then, he has nothing to do with Yuanqing. I respectfully call him Uncle Master, simply out of friendship, but who are you? How dare you act so rudely in front of me? What? Do you think I, the Nine Sons of Yuanqing, am a vegetarian?"
"You are a bunch of people who use your status to bully my Yuanqing disciples, but you don't know that you are only asking for trouble. Master Lieyang is supposed to be a man of high moral character, so how could he have taught such a bunch of good-for-nothings like you? You still boast of being admitted to the Daoist sect. In my opinion, it is better not to enter the Daoist sect, so as to save the Three Pure Ones from being upset by the sight of the Nine Heavens above."
The scolding continued without stopping, shocking the people from the Supreme Sect in the hall. Only then did they understand why such a little girl was treated with such respect by these seven-foot-tall men of the Yuanqing Sect.
He could say these words and each one was so reasonable that no one could refute it. His voice was as loud as a bell but as gentle as a playwright in the world. He was so weird and strange that I felt uncomfortable all over.
This is not something that ordinary people can do!
Looking at Ling Xiang's disdainful expression, Hui Yan didn't know how to respond for a moment. After a moment, he came to his senses and said, "Then according to Elder Fu Cang's advice, how should this matter be handled?"
Lingxiang grinned when she heard that.
"Since you enjoy fighting so much, I'll set up a martial arts arena on Kuncheng Peak tomorrow and let you fight to your heart's content to see who's better. That way, even if you lose, I'm sure you'll accept it with a clear conscience!"
