The sick villain maxed out the favorability of the protagonist

Even Li Zhi, who had personally watched the "Battle of the Deacon's Hall", and Li Yao, who had participated in the battle, could not help but be confused by the "clear details" rumors, and began to seriously doubt the "purity of friendship" between Li Yan and Jiang Aning .

Even Elder Qingshen, who joined the Deacon Hall and was in charge of investigating the death of Deacon Chen, came to Li Yan for a "long talk" because of this rumor, and only then reluctantly believed in Li Yan because of Li Yan's "integrity" His testimony was not the biased product of personal affection.

It was under such an atmosphere that Jiang Aning, the "central figure of gossip" who had been "captive" in Li Yan's cave for more than a month without hearing anything outside the window, finally went to the deacon's hall to receive the monthly salary of the outer disciples. It's time to be surrounded by people--

Some people whispered jealously: "So it's this girl, and she doesn't look very good. You said that Uncle Li Yan is such a perfect person, why did you fall in love with her?"

Someone immediately echoed: "Who knows what tricks she used to confuse people..."

Some people also teased ambiguously: "This girl looks like the fresh and delicious type..."

Immediately someone responded: "Yeah, big eyes, round face, and looks a bit dull, it turns out that Uncle Li Yan likes cute little tender seedlings."

Someone else said: "I heard that this person is very extravagant, he would eat a whole psychic crane every day!"

The troublemaker hurriedly added: "It's not just extravagance, she is simply cold-blooded, cruel and inhumane! Do you know Passer-by Deacon? It is said that she killed her just because she offended her with a trivial matter!"

Some people questioned in disbelief: "Isn't she a mortal just getting started? How could she kill a deacon who is a passer-by at the fifth level of Qi training?"

The troublemaker sneered again and again: "That's not easy, as long as she blows the pillow wind in the ear of the head disciple... a few words can take a life!"

Under the bombardment of all kinds of murderous rumors, Jiang Anning didn't even have time to collect her things, so she had to cover her face with her head and face, and rushed out of the deacon's hall, escaped from the encirclement of gossip crowds, and jumped onto Li Yan's stack of flying swords The voice urges to go quickly——

However, there were still a few stubborn comments that flowed into the ears of the two: "That person really likes to show off, he just came to receive a salary, and he even asked Uncle Li Yan to send her off with his sword!"

"That's because she has the ability, otherwise how could Uncle Li Yan love her so much?"

"..."

For those illogical gossips, even Jiang Anning's thick nerves couldn't bear it, so she could only flee in embarrassment.

When the two caught in the "peachy storm" returned to the cave again, Jiang Anning's complexion had become uglier than bitter gourd.

She stared at Li Yan with fiery eyes, gritted her teeth and asked, "Everyone outside has told me like that, why didn't you tell me? It made me look like a fool and sent them to watch as a joke." ?!"

For the first time since this period of time, Jiang Anning has clearly experienced the "time concept of a cultivator": every day she has to meditate and practice, and that time naturally passes very quickly; With extensive knowledge and good eloquence, Jiang Aning always listened with gusto and endless interest, and never felt bored at all.

In addition, she had the Bigu Pill in her hand, and she didn't need to go out to look for food, so more than a month seemed like a few days, and it passed in the blink of an eye.

The relaxed and comfortable life almost made Jiang Aning completely forget about "molesting and being molested", so she couldn't imagine that the outside world has undergone earth-shaking changes under the intrusion of rumors!

"I really didn't know that the matter had become so serious. I have often practiced in the cave for more than a month, and I have never left at all."

Li Yan lowered her head innocently and aggrievedly, and explained in a low voice: "Even when I go out occasionally, no one will pass these words to my ears..."

Speaking of this, Li Yan's expression "can't help" darkened, but he still "forced his energy" and said sincerely: "I'm sorry, I was just excited that day... I made an exaggerated joke , I didn't expect it to have such a big impact on you, it's all my fault."

Li Yan's superb performance and his words of "advancing through retreat" are all watertight: he hasn't been out much during this period, and the news is not well-informed, isn't it all to accompany "Cultivation Xiaobai" Jiang Anning; besides, the last time It was obviously the other party who made the joke first, but Li Yan just responded "overly enthusiastically", so we can't put all the responsibility on him.

Sure enough, from Li Yan's "sincere apology", Jiang Anning remembered the two nonsense sudden missions that caused all these bad consequences, and immediately lost her temper.

Then the other party's "sadness" reminded her of hurting Li Yan's "obscure and fragile youthful feelings" in order to do the task, and felt even more sorry, so she could only say dully: "Actually, it's none of your business... ..."

But just letting those gossip continue to spread like this is not an option, Jiang Aning thought about it carefully, and said, "Li Yan, can you...can you please ask your master to suppress this rumor as much as possible?"

Li Yan nodded without hesitation and said, "I'm going to explain the cause and effect to Master now."

As he spoke, he complained to himself "naturally", "It's all my fault that I didn't act well, which not only affected your reputation, but may also cause Master and the old man to be gossiped by other elders..." He quietly highlighted "Elder "These two words.

After hearing Li Yan's words, Jiang Anning's mind flashed, and she immediately remembered the elder she hated the most in Tianyuanzong——Qing Ling!
All of a sudden, she, who has a lot of associations, couldn't help but doubt: If there is no "expert" behind the push, how could the rumors spread so fast? !

"Maybe it's that dead old man Qingling who deliberately ruined our reputation!" At the moment when Jiang Anning revealed who she suspected, and no one knew about it except Li Yan, Elder Qingling's luck value was once again The sudden drop, and counting what he lost in the meeting hall before, Qingling's luck value was as high as 80, and now his luck value may have shrunk by half...

At this time, although Li Yan didn't know how much Qingling's good luck value had dropped, he was already very sure that Qingling's fortune must be "suppressed" by his lucky star again—and this is exactly what he hoped to see. to the result.

If you ask why Li Yan wants to promote the spread of rumors?In fact, his purpose has three as many.
