057, on the tea ceremony
at the same time.
On the stone steps in the mountain, Chen Xun walked down from the top of the mountain leisurely and walked towards the confinement room.
Occasionally, there were disciples passing by who seemed to know what he had done, and they all looked at him in surprise and awe.
The news was obviously spreading. It was originally intended to establish prestige, and Chen Xun didn't take it seriously. But before he reached the middle peak, a tall and beautiful figure happened to come up from the mountain road on one side and stopped him.
"Senior sister?"
Chen Xun turned his head and saw Third Senior Sister Xiao Yuhan hurriedly walking in front of him, his eyebrows looking at her with a faint look:
"Fifth Junior Brother, I heard from the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall that you broke into the confinement room and injured the inner disciple Wang Taizhi? Is it true or false?"
There was nothing to hide, Chen Xun nodded: "It is indeed me."
"..."
Xiao Yuhan paused, looked at Chen Xun up and down like a monster, and said in slight shock:
"You...have reached the eighth level?"
"We just arrived two days ago."
Chen Xun smiled:
"Thanks to my senior sister for laying the foundation for me in the beginning, otherwise I wouldn't have made such rapid progress."
It's actually true...
How long has it been since he reached the top level of martial arts? Two months!?
Even if he already knew that Chen Xun was extremely talented, he would still be surprised by the incredible speed of his cultivation. Various emotions flashed through Xiao Yuhan's beautiful eyes, and he sighed with a complicated mood:
"Junior brother, please don't put gold in my face. Your ability to achieve such speed is due to your extraordinary talent, and it has little to do with my teachings."
Chen Xun wanted to say something else, but Xiao Yuhan continued:
"Let's not mention these things. You broke into the solitary room and injured Wang Taizhi. How did Master and the others punish you?"
Chen Xun sighed: "Master asked me to go to the solitary room and be locked up. I can only come out when he speaks. Alas..."
A long sigh full of grievance and sadness, but Xiao Yuhan remained unmoved and said calmly:
"Junior brother, why do you have to pretend to be pitiful? If you were a disciple who dared to do such a thing, you would be expelled from the mountain. Master, he is already biased towards you."
Yes, it was exposed.
Chen Xun, who originally wanted to deceive his senior sister into caring about him, stopped being miserable and said with a smile:
"Senior Sister, I have a keen eye. I'm going to the dark room. I won't talk to you first..."
Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly moved slightly and he turned his head.
On the mountain road not far away, a tall, cold and arrogant figure appeared at some point, looking over with indifferent eyes:
"He broke into the solitary room and injured his fellow disciples. We haven't seen each other for a while. The fifth junior brother is really impressive..."
Surprisingly, it was second senior brother Hua Longfei.
I haven't had many interactions with each other since I started, so I didn't expect to bump into the other person here. Chen Xun raised his eyebrows, and then gave a slight salute that was neither humble nor overbearing:
"Chen Xun has met the second senior brother."
Hua Longfei walked slowly and said indifferently:
"It's only been half a year since I joined the sect, but my junior brother has already achieved such a level of cultivation. It's really amazing. However, my junior brother seems to know the etiquette. In this case, how could he do such arrogant things?"
The other party was obviously here to stand up for Wang Taizhi. Chen Xun pretended to be stupid and said: "What is the second senior brother referring to?"
Hua Longfei raised his eyebrows slightly and scolded:
"Junior brother, are you still pretending to be confused in front of me? Wang Taizhi has asked me to explain the cause and effect. Although he did something wrong, he was punished by the law enforcement hall. Junior brother, you have only been in the sect for half a year, and you dare to be so domineering and cruel. Who are you?
Taught you to behave like this?"
As soon as the other party opened his mouth, it was just like scolding him. Chen Xun, who originally wanted to apologize casually and expose the matter, suddenly felt unhappy and said with a smile:
"Second Senior Brother, do you know how Senior Brother Wang slandered and arranged for me behind my back? He made rude remarks, not only humiliating me but also other senior sisters in Side Peak. I only wanted to discuss with him to tell him that idle talk can make no difference.
It’s just a matter of principle, Second Senior Brother, you can’t help me with the marriage, right?”
"Um?"
After entering the sixth level of the third level of martial arts, no disciple in the sect dared to contradict the highly prestigious Hua Longfei. His eyes suddenly radiated cold light, and a feeling of oppression surged out:
"Okay, okay... I didn't expect that Junior Brother has only been on the mountain for half a year and his abilities are so great. According to Junior Brother, if you speak rudely now, can I teach you a lesson?"
Chen Xun was about to shout, "If you have the skills, try it." Xiao Yuhan, who was standing by, couldn't stand it anymore and suddenly took a step forward:
"Okay, Second Brother, Fifth Junior Brother, he is young and energetic, and it is inevitable that he will be impulsive. Master has just ordered him to be punished and imprisoned. Why do you need to be acquainted with him?"
Xiao Yuhan's dissuasion was quite effective. Hua Longfei obviously didn't want to take action at this juncture, so he immediately endured it:
"That's what junior sister said."
Then, he glanced at Chen Xun coldly:
"Fifth Junior Brother, no matter how talented you are, you should abide by the rules in this sect. That's it for this time. If there is another time, I will discipline you on Master's behalf!"
After saying that, he suddenly rolled up his sleeves and turned around and left.
Xiao Yuhan looked at the other person's leaving figure and frowned slightly, but Chen Xun seemed to see something, and rolled his eyes with a look of fear:
"Senior sister, why is the second senior brother so fierce? Is he always like this?"
Xiao Yuhan obviously didn't understand Chen Xun's tea talk, so he just sighed and said:
"Fifth Junior Brother, you were reckless in what happened this time. You shouldn't have shown your cultivation level so quickly, and you shouldn't have clashed with Second Senior Brother like this."
The senior sister obviously had something in her words. Chen Xun, who did not know much about his second senior brother Hua Longfei, raised his eyebrows:
"Sister, what do you mean...?"
"Under Master, the eldest brother is mild-tempered and uncontested; the fourth brother is loose-tempered and unrestrained. The second brother, as the one with the highest qualifications and the fastest progress among us, is proud of himself."
Xiao Yuhan didn't say anything clearly, but just took a deep look at Chen Xun:
"Master has always taught us that brothers and sisters should help each other. In this matter, I will find an opportunity to help you and the second brother to resolve the dispute. No matter what, you are at the bottom. I just want to apologize.
Okay, don’t hurt the friendship between fellow disciples.”
This means...my existence will cause Hua Longfei to be afraid and ostracized?
Faintly hearing the hidden meaning behind the words, Chen Xun couldn't help but feel a move in his heart.
Thinking about it, before he went up the mountain, Hua Longfei was the only one with top-grade roots, and he was also the first in the sect in terms of cultivation, so he must have been regarded as a key training target.
However, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. After all, Yaowang Mountain is only a medium-sized sect. Once he, who is seemingly the best in the world, comes over, he will inevitably occupy a lot of resources, and the potential he possesses will definitely be for Hua Longfei, a vested interest.
Threat to status.
It's no wonder that the other party seems to have had few interactions with me since I went up the mountain.
After thinking about this, Chen Xun made a mental note that he could not refuse Xiao Yuhan's kindness, so he nodded and said:
Chapter completed!
