Chapter 305 Gentle Senior Brother 13 His voice wasn't loud, but it carried the pressure of his cultivation, quieting down the restless crowd around him.
This made Lin Wanwan tremble all over, as if she had been choked. All the vicious words she wanted to say were stuck in her throat, leaving only intense resentment and a venomous look in her eyes.
She did indeed gain the attention of her senior brother Mu Yuan in this life, but not in the way she expected. Instead, she received a warning look from him.
Zi Xi glanced indifferently at Lin Wanwan, whose eyes were bloodshot. Her gaze was calm and unwavering, yet it was as if she were looking at a clown.
"Thank you, senior brother. Farewell."
She carefully put away the jade slip that had already recognized its owner, then thanked Mu Yuan, who was standing in front of her, her tone still cold.
After saying that, she turned around without looking back and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
He was neither carried away by the acquisition of the treasure nor lingered any longer because of the protection he received from Mu Yuan, the senior disciple of the Tianyan Sect.
"What a heartless little thing."
Mu Yuan watched her leave decisively, touched his chin, and ignored the bleeding wound on his arm.
Interesting...this is really interesting.
In human folk tales, shouldn't a life-saving grace be repaid with one's body?

The halo at the entrance to the Cloud Heaven Secret Realm slowly dissipated, and the spatial rift gradually merged, marking the end of this phase of the secret realm.
Disciples from various sects were teleported out one after another, their expressions varying.
Back at Hidden Peak, Zi Xi's face was somewhat pale, but her aura was more refined and profound than before she entered the secret realm.
"Senior Sister!"
"Junior Sister is back!"
Shi Lei and the others, who had been anxiously waiting inside the peak, immediately surrounded him, bombarding him with questions.
After Zi Xi briefly recounted her experience, she took out a box filled with countless Mirage Pearls and said she wanted to hand it over.
When they took out that seemingly ordinary jade slip that contained profound spiritual energy, the Hidden Peak members immediately erupted in cheers.
So many Mirage Pearls!!!
"My God! A wondrous treasure that has recognized its owner on its own!"
"Senior sister is amazing!"
"I knew my junior sister was the best!"
Even the usually indifferent and lazy Master Yunyan was so excited that his beard trembled, and he couldn't stop smiling as he held the box of the Mirage Pearl.
"Excellent! Excellent! It's as if the heavens are protecting our Hidden Peak! Little Six, you are truly our Hidden Peak's lucky star!"
Master Yunyan looked at the jade slip again and again, smiling contentedly.
Although Hidden Peak is a fallen family, its newly recruited disciples are promising.
Just by going to a small secret realm, they gained so many opportunities; the entire Hidden Peak was filled with pride.
In stark contrast, there was low air pressure on the Hidden Sword Peak of the Tianyan Sect.
As soon as Lin Wanwan returned, she collapsed into tears in front of Ling Jue Sword Master.
"Master! You must do justice for your disciple!"
She deliberately made her hair disheveled, her clothes were covered in dust, and she cried with tears streaming down her face, looking utterly pitiful.
"Disciple finally discovered a great opportunity in the secret realm. My senior brothers were almost able to help me obtain it, but who knew... who knew that the Hidden Peak used some means to make that rare treasure willingly recognize her as its master!"
"That's fine, after all, treasures choose their owners and can't be forced, but... but Senior Brother Mu Yuan... he said he's going to hand me over to the Enforcement Hall!"
She sobbed, her sobs half-truthful and half-joking.
"Our Hidden Sword Peak and the Main Peak have always been on good terms. It's one thing for Senior Brother Mu Yuan not to help us, but he has repeatedly protected that Hidden Peak, and even risked injury to save her!"
"Finally, he even publicly reprimanded his disciple, causing him to lose face in front of all the sects!"
