Lingxiao Zhenren was instantly led astray by Shen Sangruo.
The focus was on her subtly mocking his lack of knowledge, and the authenticity of the strange fire was no longer of concern.
How come he never noticed before that Shen Sangri was so unruly and unacceptable?
No, she's always been like this; she's just become even more unruly after coming down the mountain.
"After all, the world is constantly changing, and it is not that Master is incompetent if there are things he does not know."
Although he was speaking up for him, Master Lingxiao's anger only intensified.
"If you don't believe me, Master can simply sever the connection between that technique and me." Chen Sangruo paused, then added quietly, "If Master isn't afraid of bearing the guilt of killing his own disciple."
With just a few casual words, Lingxiao Zhenren was put on the hot seat.
She has already informed Master Lingxiao of the consequences.
If he were to force himself on her again, he would be deliberately trying to kill her.
Lingxiao Zhenren's disgust for Shen Sangruo had reached its peak at this moment. "Are you threatening me?"
"This disciple dares not," Shen Sangruo replied with the same words.
"I see no way that you would dare not do something."
"Moreover, this disciple is not worthy of Master's Profound Fire True Dragon Technique. If this disciple were to cultivate Master's technique, I am afraid it would disgrace the sect and bring shame to Master."
"Furthermore, I know that Master has never liked me, so if I don't practice Master's techniques, Master won't have to put in the effort to teach me personally."
Shen Sangruo's words made Lingxiao Zhenren frown.
Although he did think Shen Sanruo was somewhat foolish and wicked, hearing her say it so frankly, he suddenly felt a few indescribable emotions welling up in his heart.
Would Shen Sanruo just accept his prejudice against her like that?
How could he not cry or make a scene, and still say such things so calmly?
"You do have some self-awareness." Master Lingxiao snorted coldly, waved his sleeve, turned around, and sat back down.
This means that she is allowed to continue cultivating the Sunset Glazed Fire Technique.
"However, if you ever want to switch back to the Profound Fire True Dragon Technique in the future, I will not allow it. I am only giving you this one chance."
Naturally, he would no longer offer guidance on any issues related to Shen Sangruo's cultivation techniques.
It's like letting her run wild.
Shen Sangruo didn't care, after all, she had been practically left to her own devices before.
After that, she planned to leave the Flying Cloud Sect, so she naturally didn't care whether Master Lingxiao would guide her or not.
"This disciple thanks Master for granting my request." Shen Sangruo kowtowed in gratitude.
Wen Xuan, who was standing to the side, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He thought that if Shen Sangruo opposed Lingxiao Zhenren in this way, it would anger Lingxiao Zhenren and cause him to get injured.
Fortunately, Master Lingxiao did not pursue the matter further.
However, if Shen Sangri also showed such a calm attitude towards Lingxiao Zhenren, he felt another wave of sorrow.
Xiao Ruo, she has really changed.
Luo Chu watched the entire contest between Shen Sangruo and Lingxiao Zhenren, and felt only astonishment.
He originally wanted to take the opportunity to say a few bad things about Shen Sangruo and add fuel to the fire, but he didn't expect that he couldn't get a word in edgewise.
There was nothing that could be done; Shen Sangruo's actions today were far too audacious and reckless.
Even if she had the sect leader Shen Daochen as her backer, it wouldn't give her such courage.
That's really weird.
Could it be that Shen Sanruo is truly different from before?
Luo Chu shook his head.
What does it matter to him if Shen Sang changes? His dislike for her will never change.
Unless she apologizes to him.
Otherwise, even if she didn't want to stay in the sect, he wouldn't say another word to her, hmph.
"But your words and actions are inappropriate, and you have spoken ill of me."
Lingxiao Zhenren's sudden words made Wen Xuan's heart, which had just been at ease, jump again.
"I hereby punish you by sending you down the mountain for three years of training. Do you have any objections?" Master Lingxiao sat in a high position, looking down at her with an oppressive gaze.
Three years is actually nothing for a cultivator.
However, Wen Xuan still felt that Lingxiao Zhenren's punishment was a bit too harsh.
How could you send Chen Sangruo down the mountain for three years just because of a few words?
Luo Chu suppressed his anger, thinking that if Shen Sang were willing to ask him for help, he would be willing to speak to his master on her behalf.
Just as Wen Xuan was about to plead for mercy, Shen Sangruo readily accepted.
"This disciple is willing to accept the punishment."
Sending her down the mountain for three years would be exactly what she wanted.
If she doesn't return to the sect for a long time, it will inevitably attract their attention, and they will question her about it.
Now she had a good reason to explain why she wasn't going back to the sect.
Is this punishment? It's clearly a reward!
"Leave the sect within three days." After saying this, Master Lingxiao gently closed his eyes, unwilling to say anything more to them.
As his disciple, Shen Sangri was somewhat of an eyesore for not practicing his techniques.
Perhaps she is no longer suitable to be his apprentice.
Such a person would be a scourge if left on Zhenlin Peak. He harasses his senior brothers, is unkind to his junior sisters, and is stubborn and incorrigible.
Lingxiao Zhenren couldn't help but have the idea of expelling Chen Sangruo from the sect.
He will have a good talk with Shen Daochen later.
Master Lingxiao will not treat Shen Sangruo specially just because she is Shen Daochen's disciple.
"Disciple obeys." Shen Sangri replied without hesitation.
However, she only has three days to browse through the books in the library, so she needs to speed things up.
With such a ruthless punishment from Master Lingxiao, Shen Sangri was unwilling to argue for herself, but Wen Xuan couldn't help but speak up: "Master..."
Lingxiao Zhenren slowly opened his eyes. "What, are you going to plead for her?"
“I…” Wen Xuan clenched his fist.
"No, no, if Shen Sangruo deserves her punishment, then Master is wise." Luo Chu quickly pulled Wen Xuan back.
He desperately tried to hint at it to Wen Xuan, who was looking at him with confusion.
It wouldn't matter if Shen Sang went down the mountain; it would just mean one less person he disliked.
But if Wen Xuan is implicated by Shen Sangruo, who will help him clean up the mess?
"If there are no objections, you may leave."
The next moment, they were all expelled from the cave by Lingxiao Zhenren's spiritual power.
The restrictions on the cave were activated, and True Person Lingxiao did not want to hear their voices.
At this moment, Wen Xuan was finally able to question Luo Chu, "Xiao Chu, why did you stop me from pleading for Xiao Ruo?"
“If we had pleaded for her, Xiao Ru wouldn’t have been punished by being sent down the mountain for three years. Xiao Ru is our junior sister, you can’t…”
"Second Senior Brother, calm down." Luo Chu covered Wen Xuan's mouth directly. "I think Master's mind is made up, and it's useless for us to beg any further."
"Besides, even if we plead for them, some people might not appreciate it," Luo Chu said, glancing meaningfully at Shen Sangruo.
Shen Sangruo smiled but remained silent.
Yes, that's right, Luo Chu was absolutely right.
"She's not even worried, why should we worry and get upset for her?" Luo Chu said sarcastically.
"That's because Xiaoruo doesn't know how to defend herself. He trusts and relies on us the most in the sect. How can we, as his senior brothers, turn a blind eye to this?"
