After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Chapter 556 Making a fuss

Fu Lingchen, who was about to leave, suddenly turned around, with a hint of surprise in his eyes, and looked at Zhen Yao with a frown.

Zhen Yao lowered her head to avoid his gaze, while Zhu Zhi's face showed undisguised pride, and he looked back at the person opposite with a proud look.

The scene suddenly froze. Fu Lingchen did not speak again. He lowered his eyes to glance at the two people's clasped hands, then turned around and prepared to leave.

Seeing this, Pei Yun walked towards him. Fu Lingchen was slightly stunned and forced a smile: "You are here, I will take you home..."

Pei Yun shook his head: "No rush, we have to resolve the matter here first."

He took a step forward and greeted Zhen Yao, "Friend Zhen, it's been a while. I didn't expect you to be at the Sword Discussion Conference. Isn't Friend Yin here?"

"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Pei. Junior Sister Yin is not a swordsman. She is currently in seclusion in the sect to practice..."

Of course, she is not a sword cultivator. The reason why Zhen Yao came to the sword competition was actually because she had the intention of meeting Fu Lingchen. Although they met now, she never thought it would be so embarrassing.

Pei Yun nodded, glanced at Zhu Zhi beside her, and then fixed her gaze on the group of Xianlan Sect disciples. With her hands behind her back and half-closed eyes, she said loudly, "Junior Brother Fu is a disciple of my Yunshan Sect. Who was it just now who spoke rudely, insulting my disciples and calling my Yunshan Sect a low-class sect?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers who had thought the show was over became excited and gathered around again, their eyes fixed on Pei Yun and the group of Xianlan Sect disciples. The atmosphere became tense again.

The disciples of Xianlan Sect could not see through Pei Yun's cultivation level and did not respond for a while. However, as disciples of Xianlan Sect, one of the ten major sects in Dongcangzhou, they looked down on small sects in their bones. So even if they had no intention of provoking him, they naturally would not lower themselves to apologize to the person in front of them.

"...I'm afraid this fellow Daoist has misunderstood. Daoist Fu was originally a disciple of our Xianlan Sect, but later eloped with the demon tribe and betrayed the sect. This despicable behavior has caused the indignation of fellow disciples and sisters. It is understandable that they have spoken too much. As for your sect... I advise you to first understand the character of certain people before accepting disciples, so as not to affect your reputation..."

Zhu Zhi walked up to the group of Xianlan Sect disciples and spoke in a righteous tone.

Everyone who was listening to the gossip around was shocked, and their eyes towards Fu Lingchen gradually became unfriendly, and they began to point fingers at him. Seeing this, Zhu Zhi's smile deepened, and he felt very proud in his heart.

"not like this!"

Zhen Yao's face grew serious as she looked at Zhu Zhi and the Xianlan Sect disciples. "The Xianlan Sect's higher-ups have already reported this. They've discovered that the demon clan murdered his entire family. Fu Lingchen endured humiliation and lived in seclusion to seek revenge, pretending to elope with the demon clan. Senior Brother Zhu, you must not slander others' reputations!"

Zhu Zhi's face suddenly darkened, and he shot a cold light in his eyes towards Zhen Yao, but this time Zhen Yao did not back down, and looked at him without showing any weakness.

Pei Yun smiled and said, "My Yunshan Sect doesn't need your sect to bother recruiting disciples. Moreover, Junior Brother Fu was seriously injured and on the verge of death by the demons in the demon world that day. It was me and the elders of our sect who saved him. I naturally know the truth... How can you, the disciples of the Xianlan Sect, be so timid as to not take responsibility for what you did? You dare not admit what you said?!"

"Who said you dare not admit it?"

"Junior Brother Lu" from the Xianlan Sect stepped forward and said angrily, "No matter what his reasons were, Fu Lingchen defected from the sect back then. He was still engaged to Senior Sister Zhen, yet he was living with the demon tribe. Why shouldn't we criticize such a person? As for your Yunshan Sect, what the hell is that?! You picked up a discarded disciple of the Xianlan Sect and took him in as your disciple. Aren't you a small sect that accepts anything?! We're just telling the truth..."

"That's right! What can you do if we don't apologize today? This is the territory of the Jijian Sect. Not to mention that they don't agree with guests taking action privately, even if they agree, how can a small Yunshan Sect like you do anything to my Xianlan Sect..."

"Indeed, this is the Jijian Sect, and I will abide by the rules of the Jijian Sect. But if other sects insult my Yunshan Sect, I will definitely appeal the matter and let the people of the Jijian Sect judge the matter..." Pei Yun said.

"Ha! The Xianlan Sect and the Jijian Sect have always been on good terms. Ask the Jijian Sect disciple behind you if he is willing to offend the Xianlan Sect for you..." Another disciple of the Xianlan Sect walked out with a mocking look on his face and said in an arrogant tone.

"Ugh..." The Jijian Sect disciple leading Pei Yun was struck by this unexpected disaster. He cursed the Xianlan Sect disciples and Pei Yun in his heart, but on the surface he acted like a peacemaker. "Fellow Daoist Pei, the first rule of this sword competition is that except on the arena, no one in the Jijian Sect is allowed to fight privately, not even for sparring. As for the grudge between your sect and the Xianlan Sect... I suggest you resolve it yourselves after the sword competition is over or after you leave the Jijian Sect..."

"Oh! You really don't know your own limitations and think too highly of yourself. The Jijian Sect is a major sect, how could they have the time to seek justice for you? Who do you think you are?! This is hilarious!"

"You, a small sect that appeared out of nowhere, are asking our Xianlan Sect to apologize. How ridiculous!"

"Let's go! Ignore her and go back to Ruchun Pavilion. The elders are waiting for us!"

This group of Xianlan Sect disciples glanced at Pei Yun with disdain, and after a round of sarcastic remarks, they followed Zhu Zhi and prepared to leave.

Zhu Zhi looked at Fu Lingchen and Pei Yun steadily, a slight sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he pulled Zhen Yao to leave.

At this moment, Pei Yun calmly took out the token and handed it to the Jijian Sect disciple beside him: "Fellow Daoist, may I ask to see Venerable Qin Gu?"

"Of course not..." Seeing the man's wild idea, the Jijian Sect disciple was about to frown and refuse. However, he glanced down at the name engraved on the token and was startled. He looked at it several times, a look of disbelief in his eyes. "How did you get Elder Qin Gu's token? Do you know Elder Qin?"

"……kindness?"

"what?!"

These words successfully attracted the attention of everyone present. Even the Xianlan Sect disciples who were about to leave stopped. Zhu Zhi frowned slightly and looked at the token and Pei Yun, with a bad feeling in his heart.

"I still have the token that Patriarch Qin Meng gave me in the Secret Realm of the Sky Domain. Patriarch Qin Meng said that with this token, I can go to Meng Dao Mountain at any time..."

Pei Yun said this and took out another token in the shocked eyes of the Jijian Sect disciple. Not only the Jijian Sect disciple, but everyone present was stunned!

At this moment, they had only one thought in their minds - this woman must be from a prominent background!

The disciples of Xianlan Sect broke out in cold sweat and felt annoyed.

"This, this..." The Jijian Sect disciple was speechless with astonishment. He lowered his head and looked at the two genuine tokens, his voice choking. "...Of course, this is possible. I will lead the way for you, my distinguished guest..."

"That's good. Since some people won't apologize, I'll ask Senior Qin Gu to judge. Senior Qin Gu and Venerable Lingxi were guests at my Yunshan Sect a while ago. I'm sure Venerable Lingxi hasn't left yet! Let's show everyone how arrogant and domineering some Xianlan Sect disciples are on Jijian Sect's territory..."

Pei Yun smiled faintly, and said as if no one was around, "Junior Brother Fu, come with me to Mount Mengdao."

Fu Lingchen calmly cooperated with her acting: "Let's go! It's just right, I also want to ask Venerable Lingxi for advice on refining weapons..."

"……Wait a moment!"

Seeing that the two men left as soon as they said they would, and that the disciple of Jijian Sect respectfully led them to Mengdao Mountain, Zhu Zhi suddenly became anxious. He just wanted to embarrass Fu Lingchen and did not want to make a big deal out of it.

If the matter were to be brought to the attention of Venerable Qin Gu, it would certainly alert the elders of the Xianlan Sect. His master did not lack a disciple like him and was extremely concerned about his reputation. If the matter was difficult to resolve, his master would not only not protect him but would push him out and completely sever any relationship between the two.

Seeing Pei Yun and Fu Lingchen turn around and look back at them calmly, as if they were sure they would apologize, Zhu Zhi felt very aggrieved, but he was the one who caused the trouble, so naturally he was the only one who could put out the fire.

"...Apologies to the two fellow Daoists from the Yunshan Sect."

This group of disciples from the Xianlan Sect started to get scared after Pei Yun took out the token of Venerable Qin Gu. They were good at showing off with words, but if they really made a big deal out of it, they would still be in the wrong, and the elders would definitely punish them. Before they came, the elders had repeatedly reminded them not to cause trouble in other people's sects.

At this moment, they all hung their heads in dejection, no longer showing the arrogance they had just now. They endured the pointing and mocking gazes of the people around them, their faces flushed with apology as they bowed to Pei Yun and the other two, saying, "...It is our fault for being rude and offending you and the Yunshan Sect. I beg your forgiveness, fellow Daoist."

Pei Yun had no intention of filing a complaint. Such a small matter was not worth mobilizing so much. Her purpose was just to force this group of people to apologize. Since the other party was using their power to pressure her, she could naturally retaliate with the same means.

Seeing that the other party had apologized, Pei Yun did not pursue the matter any further. After nodding and greeting Zhen Yao, he left with Fu Lingchen...

The disciples of Xianlan Sect, including Zhu Zhi, felt ashamed when they heard people whispering around them and staring at them from time to time, so they quickly left the corridor of Jingshui Lake.

Zhu Zhi originally wanted to embarrass Fu Lingchen, but he didn't expect that he would be in a difficult situation and made such a big fool of himself. His resentment towards Fu Lingchen deepened!
