Shi Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he stared intently at him.
Looking at Shi Yuan with that kind of gaze, Zhuo Fan felt as if his throat was being squeezed and he was suffocating.
He suppressed his fear and rallied everyone present to fight against Shi Yuan.
"Shi Yuan, how did you manage to get the Headmaster, who is as ethereal as a fairy, to agree to your request?"
"Shi Yuan, I heard that the Headmaster is pregnant with your child, is that true?"
Shi Yuan didn't care at all about what they were saying about him.
But when he heard that Nanzhi was pregnant, he was visibly stunned.
Is Master pregnant?
wrong.
She cannot be pregnant.
These people must be insulting his master.
"Shut up!"
His eyes flashed crimson, and he looked extremely furious.
Nanzhi, sitting on the high platform, sensed his darkening and quickly stood up.
Qian Che also got up.
"Don't worry, senior sister. It was one of my disciples who spoke rudely. I'll go and teach him a lesson right now."
That day, Qianche learned that Nanzhi was pregnant with Shiyuan's child.
He was both shocked and furious, feeling that Shi Yuan was truly rebellious and wishing he could kill him.
Nan Zhi wanted him to keep the secret, and since he liked Nan Zhi, he naturally agreed.
But I never expected that things would be exposed so quickly.
Moreover, the one leading the charge today is his disciple, Zhuo Fan.
Could my senior sister mistakenly believe that he told Zhuo Fan?
A sense of panic rose in Qian Che's heart, and he quickly flew down to stop Zhuo Fan.
"Zhuo Fan, who taught you to slander the Master?"
Zhuo Fan was scolded and cowered for a few seconds.
But now that things have begun, he must ruin Shi Yuan's reputation today.
“Master, what I said is true. I am not insulting the headmaster. I am just stating the facts.”
"presumptuous!"
With a wave of his hand, Qian Che sent Zhuo Fan flying a great distance.
Zhuo Fan fell to the ground, feeling a dull pain all over his body. Before he could get up, Shi Yuan flew in front of him and grabbed his throat.
"Anyone who insults our master shall die!"
Shi Yuan's eyes were terrifying, and his aura was somewhat off.
Zhuo Fan felt like his throat was about to be snapped. He struggled to resist, but his usually self-proclaimed good cultivation level was completely useless at this moment.
Just as Zhuo Fan was about to be strangled to death, Nan Zhi's voice suddenly came from behind.
"Shi Yuan, let him go."
Nanzhi walked over.
Shi Yuan regained his composure and slowly released Zhuo Fan.
Zhuo Fan finally felt himself come back to life, lying on the ground panting heavily.
Shi Yao and the others also flew down from the stage.
They glared at Zhuo Fan resentfully and said to Nan Zhi, "Master, this brat has a grudge against Shi Yuan. He must be talking nonsense. Please don't be angry."
"That's right, Master, how could there be anything between you and Junior Brother..."
Shi Yao and the others didn't believe it at all.
Just as they were defending Nanzhi, Nanzhi suddenly touched her belly and said in a deep voice, "Zhuo Fan is right, I am indeed pregnant with Shi Yuan's child."
Shi Yao and the others: |???|
Everyone present: (?(˙??˙?)?)??????
Shi Yuan remained stiff for a long time before slightly frowning and looking at her still flat stomach.
He felt that Nan Zhi might have lied to him.
But when his gaze fell on Nanzhi's face, he became a little uncertain.
Nan Zhi's gaze swept calmly over the shocked crowd, and she made an indifferent announcement.
"I have become cultivation partners with Shi Yuan and am pregnant with his child. I am now informing everyone of this."
The crowd was silent for a moment, then erupted in a barrage of questions.
"Master, you are the master of our Wuji Sect, the most powerful cultivator among the common people. How can you and your disciple act like this? Aren't you disgracing our Wuji Sect?"
"Yes, Master, if you continue like this, who will dare to come to the Wuji Sect to cultivate in the future?"
All of it was condemnation of Nam Gyi.
Nan Zhi wasn't angry, but Shi Yuan was furious. Seeing that he was about to use force to suppress her again, Nan Zhi quickly grabbed his hand.
She glanced at the angry crowd and slightly curled the corners of her lips.
"Everyone, do you still remember the sect motto of the Wuji Sect?"
"Of course I remember," someone shouted. "'Cultivate humanity first, then immortality,' that's the master's instruction, but I'm afraid our master didn't even follow the human way."
"What is the way of man?" Nan Zhi showed no embarrassment. She said, word by word, "The way of man is greed, anger, ignorance, pride, and doubt. As long as you are human, you will have these shortcomings. Only by accepting your shortcomings can you become a superior person."
The calls for condemnation subsided somewhat.
Nanzhi continued, "There is another saying in the master's teachings—'Go with the flow and be carefree.'"
"If we cannot follow human nature and our own emotions, how can we improve our spiritual cultivation?"
The murmurs subsided somewhat.
"You think Shi Yuan is rebellious, but I don't think so. The Wuji Sect has never pursued the Dao alone, and I have never restricted you from being alone. Do you want to restrict me?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed noticeably.
It seems so.
Nan Zhi pressed on with her manipulative tactics: "During the time that I and Shi Yuan have been cultivating together as partners, Shi Yuan's cultivation has clearly improved, which is a good thing. Do you all still want to object?"
No one said anything after that.
But his gaze remained fixed on Nanzhi's belly.
They felt this was still inappropriate.
Nan Zhi stroked her belly: "The Wuji Sect is dedicated to seeking immortality and pursuing the righteous path. Now that this child has come, it is his destiny with me and with the Wuji Sect. I will naturally stay."
After Nanzhi said that, everyone was convinced by her words and no one said anything more. Instead, they all wished the child in her belly well.
Zhuo Fan realized his sense of direction was off. He gritted his teeth, got up, and tried to run, but Nan Zhi used a freezing spell to immobilize him.
"This person is stirring up trouble, attempting to insult me and sow discord between me and you. I will now strip him of his cultivation and expel him from the Wuji Sect."
As soon as she finished speaking, Nan Zhi made a hand seal, and a burst of green light suddenly pierced through Zhuo Fan's body.
Zhuo Fan felt a tearing pain in his internal organs, and the spiritual energy in his dantian was being sucked away little by little by a powerful force, until only emptiness remained.
He lay weakly on the ground, pleading with Namzhi to let him stay.
“Master, I was wrong. Please do not expel me.”
Being expelled means that no cultivation sect will accept him again, and he can only return to his family.
But if his family finds out that he was expelled back, they will definitely feel ashamed and will not take him in. Then he will be truly finished.
Seeing that Nanzhi ignored him, he quickly crawled toward Qianche.
"Master, I was momentarily bewitched. Please, I beg you, please speak to Master on my behalf."
“Master, don’t you admire your disciple very much, Master…”
