Tian Ning didn't have time to deal with Long Ye's blatant hostility; she was immediately surrounded by the disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect as soon as she appeared.
She is now a big name in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. She exposed Wenren Xue's lies in public, and the sect leader personally ordered Wenren Xue to be expelled from the sect. Not to mention, she also made a contract with ten sword spirits to leave the Sword Tomb, which left a deep impression on everyone.
"Why is Junior Sister Tianning here?"
"I was worried at first, but when I saw Junior Sister Tianning, I immediately stopped being nervous!"
Many Wanjian Sect disciples had heard from the new disciples who entered the Sword Tomb that day that if this junior sister hadn't single-handedly manipulated the ten thousand swords, they wouldn't have been able to defeat the invading demonic cultivators so easily.
Therefore, Tian Ning's appearance reassured them.
Moreover, there was a new disciple here who had witnessed Tian Ning's strength when he entered the Sword Tomb that day. His eyes lit up when he saw Tian Ning!
Long Ye was unaware of what had happened at the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. The only version he wanted to hear was how Tian Ning had hurt Wenren Xue. Seeing Tian Ning surrounded by the Ten Thousand Swords Sect disciples and treated like a star, he became increasingly dissatisfied!
Humans really are a bunch of fickle people!
Do these people... remember how much they used to respect Xue'er?
He was angry, and he also disliked Long Han, who had brought Tian Ning back.
"I ordered you to lead men to find the exit. Have you found it?"
Constrained by his status, Long Han lowered his head slightly and replied respectfully, "Your Highness, no..."
*Smack!*
A crisp slap landed on Long Han's face. Even though dragons have dragon scales protecting them, the slap was insignificant. However, in front of so many people, it was a great humiliation!
Long Han felt his cheeks burning; it was happening again…
This pampered little prince of the dragon clan always acted so recklessly because of his status, showing no respect whatsoever in front of others!
He clenched his fists, his fingertips digging into his palms. He had always been like this since childhood, yet he still wished he could disappear into the ground. The darkness deep within his heart intensified... If he had the chance! One day, he would make Long Ye wish he were dead!
"Not only can you not handle things properly, but you also brought back irrelevant useless people!" Long Ye sneered, "Why are you showing kindness to someone like that? Why do you care whether she lives or dies? If she causes everyone to be discovered by monsters and get into trouble, then you are the sinner!"
"I...it was my fault, Your Highness is right to reprimand me." These were the only words Long Han could utter in the end.
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect could sense the hostility in Long Ye's tone.
Sword cultivators are not known for their patience, and one of the disciples immediately stepped forward and said, "What do you mean by this? We respect you as a senior of the Dragon Clan, but what do you mean by speaking so sarcastically to our Junior Sister Tianning?!"
"The disciples of the Six Sects have always been united in the face of adversity. According to your words, we should disregard everything and drive away our fellow disciples?"
"It's ridiculous! If that's the case, what right do the Six Sects have to call themselves righteous disciples!"
...
He would naturally protect his own sect's junior sister. The words of the Wanjian Sect disciples made Long Ye's face turn ugly. When had he ever been questioned like this before?
"How dare you!"
"What? The Dragon Clan thinks they can be unreasonable just because they have a high status?!" Immediately, a domineering senior sister stood in front of Tian Ning to protect her.
Although the disciples from different sects were not very familiar with each other while in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, once they left the sect, they were all united against outsiders!
The feeling of being protected was very heartwarming. Tianning gave a thumbs up to everyone in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect in her heart. She didn't even have a chance to speak, as everyone became her mouthpiece.
