Senior Sister Zhao turned around and her face darkened: "It really is that bitch Bai Tong who framed Yin Yue! Yin Yue said she went to the Loose Cultivator City, so she's here now representing the Loose Cultivator City?"
She also knew Bai Tong, or rather, as Jingyang Immortal Lord's junior sister and also possessing the Heavenly Wood Spiritual Root, Bai Tong's name had already spread throughout many sects.
Of course, it wasn't anything nice to say.
The little girl, who was only a few years old, was born with a mental disorder and her cultivation was only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Wasn't she a joke in the eyes of these chosen ones?
Now that her own Canglang Sword Sect was being kept out, while Bai Tong was able to sneak into the loose cultivator city's ranks and enter the city openly, Senior Sister Zhao became increasingly dissatisfied.
If Feng Yinyue and the others found out, wouldn't they laugh at me to death behind my back?
This Senior Sister Zhao, whose real name is Zhao Xinru, is the chief disciple of the Canglang Sword Sect in this generation and one of the best young talents in the entire Central Plains. She is good friends with other prodigies from other sects, such as Feng Yinyue.
—This group of close friends and sisters is just a facade of affection.
They're all female cultivators, so who can truly submit to whom?
On the surface, they seem like close best friends, traveling and partying together, but behind each other's backs, they're full of jealousy and contempt. They'll find something bad about each other and ridicule each other mercilessly.
Senior Sister Zhao had just reprimanded her disciple and told him to let the matter rest, but in reality, she had already made up her mind to steal a jade pendant from another sect.
Now that they've encountered a city of rogue cultivators, and have a ready-made excuse, why would they let it go?
She gave a wink to her disciples behind her, and immediately some clever ones jumped out and started arguing with the disciples from Wenxian City: "Why can't our Canglang Sword Sect get in, but they can get in from the Loose Cultivator City?"
"Didn't we agree to rank them by strength? If we defeat the Loose Cultivator City, do they deserve to possess the Jade Pendant?"
Senior Sister Zhao stepped forward, drew her Snow Jade Sword, and turned her cold gaze toward Tong Su, deliberately speaking loudly, "Bai Tong, what are you doing in the Loose Cultivator City's group?"
The disciples of Wenxian City panicked and tried to stop the conflict, but they were pushed aside by the Canglang Sword Sect members and could not break through no matter how anxiously they shouted.
Senior Sister Zhao bowed respectfully to Ancestor Wen Qing and said, "Senior, I have some grudges with Bai Tong in your city. May I have a few words with her?"
Their etiquette was impeccable, yet the underlying meaning was bluntly stated: You are a Nascent Soul cultivator, while we are all junior Golden Core cultivators. You have no right to 'meddle' in our affairs, do you?
Wen Qingyuan's gaze suddenly turned cold, and the people of the Loose Cultivator City glared angrily at Senior Sister Zhao.
Senior Sister Zhao didn't take it seriously, but looked at Tong Su provocatively: "Bai Tong, don't hide inside and not come out. Everyone knows that 'Yin Yue' is naive and can't see your true colors. She was framed by you. Today, I will seek justice for 'Yin Yue'!"
Tongsu, being exceptionally clever, immediately discerned two underlying meanings from her righteous and awe-inspiring demeanor:
Senior Sister Zhao doesn't genuinely want to stand up for Feng Yinyue! With so many people here, when she says Feng Yinyue is naive, she's actually mocking her for being stupid and confused. She's using Feng Yinyue to create a persona of caring for her best friend.
Secondly, since she was the leader of the Golden Core stage in the Loose Cultivator City, if she defeated her, she could say that the Loose Cultivator City was inferior to the Canglang Sword Sect, and she could openly steal the jade pendant from the Loose Cultivator City!
The people of the Loose Cultivator City understood what she meant and were about to refuse when a soft laugh suddenly rang out from the side.
"So, the righteous cultivators' scheming and plotting are no more upright and righteous than our demonic cultivators."
