At noon the next day.
The scorching sun was burning the earth, and the ground in the martial arts training ground was scorching hot.
Drops of sweat fell to the ground. The woman's face was red, and her thin arms supported her body. Who else could it be but Suman?
In the distance, a group of disciples led by Ren Qiwen were rushing towards this side with anxious looks on their faces.
On the way, a confused disciple grabbed Ding Wan'er, who was the last one standing, and asked, "Senior Sister, where are you going?"
"Let's go to the training ground!"
"Why are you going to the training ground?"
Seeing that she was about to be left behind, Ding Wan'er simply pulled him along and said, "Let's talk while we walk."
...
"What? The Lord punishes Senior Sister by making her stand on her head in the training ground?"
"That's right!"
"Why?"
Hearing this question, Ding Wan'er looked around and whispered, "I'm telling you not to tell anyone. It was Zuo Yaohe who complained to the Lord, saying that she was bullied, so the Lord punished her by making her do a handstand in the training ground at noon."
"But Senior Sister didn't do anything yesterday!"
"You are stupid. The eldest sister is doing this for us. She is afraid that we will be punished."
"Woo woo, Senior Sister..."
"Hey, why are you crying here? If you want to cry, you should go to the training ground."
"That's right, let's go."
In this way, their team grew larger and larger, and they rushed towards the training ground in a huge crowd.
When they saw Su Man standing in the center of the training ground, they were almost heartbroken to death.
At this moment, Su Man had been standing here for half an hour. Her arms, waist and abdomen were twitching. Due to congestion and high temperature, Su Man's face had turned liver color. Sweat stuck her hair to her cheeks. She really had nothing to do with beauty.
But in the eyes of my fellow disciples, there is nothing more beautiful than this.
"Junior sister!"
Ren Qiwen, who was at the front, had a distressed look on his face, "Junior sister, why are you doing this?"
Su Man opened her eyes that were tightly closed by the scorching sun, "Brother? Why are you here?"
"If we don't come, are we going to watch you get roasted in the scorching sun alone?"
Ren Qiwen got angry, which was rare. He immediately went to help Su Man up and said, "Come down quickly."
"Yes, Senior Sister, you clearly didn't do anything, you don't deserve this punishment."
"Senior sister, please come down quickly."
"No." Su Man's voice became hoarse due to lack of water. She licked her cracked and bleeding lips. "Master is furious because of Zuo Yaohe. If I come down now, this matter will never end. Don't worry, I'm fine. You all can go back."
Fearing they would worry, Su Man forced herself to raise the corners of her lips and reveal a very faint smile. However, her pale cheeks were too unconvincing, as if she was about to faint in the next second.
Seeing Su Man like this, the disciples in front of her felt their noses tingle. "Then Senior Sister, please come down and rest for a while and drink some water."
Su Man shook her head slightly. "Master will be unhappy if someone sees this."
"If you're not happy, then you're not happy. It's obviously him who's biased. He..."
"Ah Si."
Ren Qiwen stopped him, "Don't be rude."
Ah Si knew that he had said something wrong and stopped talking in anger.
Ren Qiwen glanced at Su Man and said in a deep voice, "I will go to the Lord to plead for mercy. You stay here to take care of Li Man."
"I'm going too."
"I want to go too."
Just as Ren Qiwen was about to refuse, Ding Wan'er said, "Brother, if you go alone, I'm afraid you won't even be able to see the Lord. Why don't we go together?"
Ren Qiwen was persuaded, "Alright, then we brothers and sisters will go together."
Seeing that they were really going, Su Man said weakly, "No, Brother, don't go..."
Of course Ren Qiwen wouldn't listen to her, and even walked faster.
-
Ren Qiwen took a few older disciples away, and the remaining young disciples also had the opportunity to show their talents.
Some of them stood in front of Suman to block the sunlight for her, while others squatted beside Suman to fan her. It was very lively.
Afraid that she would not be able to hold on, there were disciples who were responsible for cheering her up.
"Senior sister, please hold on a little longer. Senior brother has already gone to plead for mercy."
"Um."
Su Man agreed, but her heart was as clear as a mirror. Zuo Yaohe was the apple of Dongji Jun's eye. Even if Zuo Yaohe did something wrong, he could let her go lightly, not to mention that Zuo Yaohe had suffered such a great injustice this time.
Just as Su Man guessed, Ren Qiwen and his group were scolded as soon as they arrived at Dongjijun.
"Why are you running to me instead of practicing martial arts to tame beasts?" Dongji Jun said coldly.
Ding Wan'er said quickly, "My Lord, we are here to plead for mercy on behalf of our Senior Sister."
"plead?"
Dongji Jun was a little surprised, but this surprise quickly turned into anger, "Nonsense!"
Seeing that Lord Dongji was truly furious, all the disciples lowered their heads and dared not speak.
Ren Qiwen stepped forward and advised, "Lord, please calm down."
Dongji Jun only then noticed Ren Qiwen. He frowned, "As a senior brother, you don't teach your junior brothers and sisters well, and you let them do whatever they want. You have completely betrayed the trust of me and Elder Lianwen!"
"Forgive me, sir. My fellow apprentices and I have reasons to come here."
"Pleading for mercy for a fellow disciple who made a mistake is your excuse? Li Man, as a direct disciple, not only did she not set a good example, but she actually instigated her fellow disciples to bully her junior sister. You think she shouldn't be punished?"
"That's not the case."
Ren Qiwen tried to explain, "That day, it was Junior Sister Zuo who first disrespected Junior Sister Li Man by wearing the uniform of a direct disciple and carrying the Sect Leader's token. Then we..."
"shut up!"
