Yan Ying had just sat down on the chair for a second when she heard footsteps outside the door...
No way, she just beat Sun Wuji, and now someone comes to hold her accountable?
"Junior Sister."
It was Bai Huanzhi's voice outside the door.
Bai Huanzhi stood outside the door with a frown on his face. He had heard that Yan Ying had injured the Jianfeng steward and a disciple. How could she be so reckless? It was said that the disciple was paralyzed by her.
[System: Host, you just hit too hard. You're going to be in trouble.]
Yan Ying put on a smile and walked to the door and opened it.
When she saw Bai Huanzhi's dark face, she knew she couldn't avoid the scolding.
"Big...Big Brother..."
"you…"
"I was wrong!" Yan Ying hurriedly said as Bai Huanzhi's words came out.
"I thought you had finally grown up these days, why are you so reckless again? Don't you know that internal fighting is prohibited in the sect?" Bai Huanzhi looked at Yan Ying with regret.
Yan Ying looked aggrieved, lowered her head and said nothing.
"It's fine if it's just a minor fight, and everyone turned a blind eye, but why did you hit me so hard? Now the whole sect has heard about it! How can I defy the sect rules and protect you?"
Bai Huanzhi was so angry that he almost died. When would his little junior sister grow up and become sensible?
Yan Ying obviously didn't know that the sect had this rule of not fighting among the people... because it wasn't written in the book...
System! Why didn't you tell me earlier that there was such a rule?
[System: What did I say, host? I haven't even finished speaking, and you're already blowing me up!]
"Senior Brother... then... what are the consequences of violating the rules?" Yan Ying looked up at Bai Huanzhi cautiously.
"Master already knows. Come with me." Bai Huanzhi sighed and said.
………
"You are so bold!" Ning Hai slammed the table and stood up.
Yan Ying was frightened by the shrinking neck.
She was so upset she wanted to cry, this was a large-scale struggle session...
Elder Gong Wenxiu, Elder Leng Sen, and her master and senior brothers were all there. She had never expected that she would be criticized for fighting...
"Master, I was just venting my anger for the outer disciples, but I didn't expect to use too much force. She is still young." Wu Lin pleaded softly for Yan Ying.
"Then you can attack without mercy?" Ning Hai glared at Yan Ying viciously.
"Master, I know I was wrong..." Yan Ying stood in the middle of the hall with a wronged look on her face.
"You are indeed too willful and reckless! You have ruined someone's life! If this behavior gets out, how will our sect survive in the world?" Gong Wenxiu shouted angrily, stroking his beard.
"Huanzhi, what should we do according to the sect rules?" Ning Hai said in a deep voice.
"Master...according to the sect rules, those who maliciously injure others and cause them to be disabled...should be...stricken with twenty thunder whips, their spiritual roots destroyed, and expelled from the sect."
"Master, Junior Sister must have not meant it..." Bai Huanzhi said softly.
"Shut up! I must teach her a lesson this time! Otherwise, she'll be in trouble in the future!"
"Since this is your first offense, I can give you a lighter punishment this time. If it happens again, I will definitely punish you more severely!" Ning Hai said sternly.
Yan Ying closed her eyes and prepared to be punished. As long as she wasn't expelled from the sect, a beating wouldn't be a problem. She would be fine by tomorrow anyway...
"Go to the Sutra Library and copy the sect rules twenty times!"
Yan Ying suddenly looked up at Ning Hai, but saw her master blinking at her vigorously, telling her to get out quickly.
"Yes! Disciple will go right away!" Yan Ying hurriedly saluted and fled out of the hall as if running for her life.
"You, Sect Master...you!" Gong Wenxiu's jaw dropped in shock. It was too obvious that he was protecting his child!
"Elder Gong, please stop trying to persuade me! This is still a light punishment! She must learn a lesson!
I’m so pissed off… Let’s all go, I’m… so pissed off that I’m dizzy…” Ning Hai covered his head and was about to walk out.
"Master, I'll support you. Be careful. Let's not be angry. Junior sister won't dare to do it again next time!" Wu Lin smiled and supported Ning Hai out of the hall.
"Dear elders, Huanzhi is leaving as well." Bai Huanzhi bowed and left.
"You said this..." Gong Wenxiu pointed at the people who ran away in a hurry and looked at Leng Sen helplessly.
"I've checked, and it was indeed my disciple who injured the person first, and he has a bad record before... This time, he can only blame himself for his bad luck." Leng Sen shook his head and said.
Ninghai is famous for protecting its own people.
Yan Ying saw Ning Hai and his second senior brother walking out of the hall and went to greet them.
"Master..." Yan Ying looked at Ning Hai feeling a little guilty.
"You are worthy of being my disciple! Ying'er, how did you defeat the Jindan cultivator?" Ning Hai patted Yan Ying's head with a smile.
“…”
Yan Ying was ready to be scolded. What was going on?
"Master, you...are not angry?"
Ning Hai smiled and shook his head. "Ying'er, remember, in this world, strength speaks volumes. Besides, Sun Wuji was wrong first, and you said you didn't care about life or death. Since he agreed, he should bear the consequences. How could Master be angry with you?"
"Master believes in you. You grew up under my watch. How could Master not understand you? Guiyun Sect is not one that sticks to one's principles, at least not your master."
Yan Ying finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Ning Hai with a smile.
"Then... do you want to copy these sect rules, Master?" Wu Lin asked with a smile.
"Even if you don't copy it, you have to go to the Sutra Library and pretend to do it, so as to avoid gossip. Go quickly." Ning Hai touched Yan Ying's head and said.
Yan Ying's eyes became moist. From childhood to adulthood, in another world, it seemed that no one had ever given her such a preference...
Her adoptive parents never treated her as a family member, and she had never felt what it was like to be favored by others...
It turns out that someone cares, this is the case...
"Junior sister, why are you still crying? Aren't you ashamed?" Wu Lin bent down and looked at Yan Ying.
The tip of Yan Ying's nose was red, and her grin looked extremely ugly.
"I just thought...I thought Master was going to expel me and no longer wanted me."
"Silly child, since your master has chosen you, there will never be a day when I give up on you. You are such a grown-up girl, stop crying." Ning Hai reached out and wiped the tears from Yan Ying's face.
"Disciple will never let Master down!" Yan Ying wiped away her tears and said to Ning Hai.
She was so lucky to be here and meet them.
