"Lin Xuanyuan, what is your intention in slandering my disciple like this?" Sheng Rao's voice was so cold that it seemed to be able to freeze people.

Lin Xuanyuan's heart trembled when he was looked at by Sheng Rao. He didn't expect Sheng Rao to be so angry. He hurriedly explained: "Uncle Master, I... I am just telling the truth. Lin Yu... he..."

However, Sheng Rao did not give him a chance to continue. She interrupted Lin Xuanyuan coldly: "Lin Xuanyuan, I know how to do things. You don't need to say more. As for Lin Yu's character, I have my own judgment. If you dare to speak rudely to my apprentice again, don't blame me for being rude!"

Sheng Rao's words made Lin Xuanyuan's heart tremble. He didn't dare to say anything more. He could only glare at Lin Yu fiercely and then stepped aside.

"Big sister, Brother Qin Yi is kind enough to advise you so that you won't regret it in the future. How can you be so ungrateful?"

Seeing this, Ning Suqiu also stood beside Qin Yi and helped him speak.

Sheng Rao glanced at Ning Suqiu, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

Ning Suqiu, who claimed to be the sect's darling, was loved by everyone. She always put Qin Yi at the center of everything and obeyed his every word.

Moreover, she and Qin Yi have been ambiguous for decades. If it weren't for the relationship between Sheng Rao and Qin Yi, they would have become Taoist couples long ago.

Ning Suqiu was very dissatisfied with Sheng Rao, the senior sister. She thought Sheng Rao was

He is just occupying the toilet without doing anything, and even regards Sheng Rao as his love rival.

"Ning Suqiu, as a disciple of the sect, you should understand that everyone has his or her own choices and judgments. I, Sheng Rao, never need anyone's advice when doing things. Besides, who are you talking to me in? As for Lin Yu's character, I will personally understand and teach him. You don't need to worry about it." Sheng Rao's voice was cold and firm, shocking everyone present.

"You...you are unreasonable! No wonder Brother Qin Yi doesn't like you!"

Ning Suqiu's face turned red with anger at Sheng Rao's words. She pointed at Sheng Rao's nose and spoke loudly.

Sheng Rao sneered and said, "Who Qin Yi likes is his business. It has nothing to do with me. By the way, Junior Brother Qin, find some time to end the Taoist couple relationship. I, Sheng Rao, never need other people's approval when doing things. As for you, Ning Suqiu, you should take care of yourself."

Ning Suqiu was choked by Sheng Rao's words and was speechless. She stomped her feet angrily and turned back to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi looked at Sheng Rao, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He didn't expect Sheng Rao to be so determined to accept Lin Yu as her disciple, and he didn't expect her to be so ruthless in saying that they would dissolve their Taoist partnership in front of everyone.

"Senior Sister, have you really made up your mind?" Qin Yi asked in a low voice, with a barely perceptible hint of viciousness in his tone.

Sheng Rao nodded and said, "I never regret anything I do. What's the matter? Could it be that Junior Brother Qin doesn't want to end our Taoist partnership? Then what about your Junior Sister? You don't want to have it all, do you?"

Sheng Rao's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Qin Yi's heart hard. His face froze, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart. Of course, he wanted to end his Taoist partner relationship with Sheng Rao. His relationship with Ning Suqiu had long been extraordinary, and the only difference was the status.

However, Sheng Rao's direct suggestion made him feel completely embarrassed, and he couldn't just explode right away.

"Senior sister, you're joking. Of course I'm willing." Qin Yi tried to calm himself down and forced a smile on his face, but there was an imperceptible chill in his eyes.

Sheng Rao didn't look at Qin Yi again. She turned to look at Lin Yu, with a soft light flashing in her eyes.

"Lin Yu, from now on, you are my disciple. Don't care what others say. Come with me now." Sheng Rao's voice was gentle yet firm, as if it could penetrate Lin Yu's heart.

A warm feeling surged in Lin Yu's heart. He looked at Sheng Rao deeply, then nodded and followed her silently.

The two left the crowd and disappeared from everyone's sight. Qin Yi and Ning Suqiu stood in place, staring at the direction they left, with complex light flashing in their eyes.

"Brother Qin Yi, look at her!" Ning Suqiu looked at Qin Yi. She was irritated by Sheng Rao.

There was a hint of grievance and dissatisfaction in Ning Suqiu's words. She felt that her status was completely ignored by Sheng Rao.

In her heart, Sheng Rao was just a woman who took the position of Qin Yi's Taoist partner and was not worthy of her respect at all.

Qin Yi patted Ning Suqiu's hand gently and comforted her: "Little Junior Sister, don't be angry. I told you before that Sheng Rao is such a person. She never considers other people's feelings when doing things. However, since she has accepted Lin Yu as her disciple, we must also be prepared."

"What are we preparing for? Lin Yu is just a waste, why should we be afraid of him?" Ning Suqiu asked in confusion.

"That's right, Master. Lin Yu is a waste and not worth mentioning at all." Lin Xuanyuan also echoed Ning Suqiu.

Lin Yu was a bastard that he had bullied since childhood. If he told Lin Yu to go east, Lin Yu would not dare to go west.

What's more, Lin Yu has no spiritual roots at all. He has top-grade earth spiritual roots. There is no comparison between Lin Yu and him.

Qin Yi believed Lin Xuanyuan's words, and there was ruthlessness in his eyes. Sheng Rao had humiliated him severely today, and he would not let it go!

"Well, this disciple recruitment meeting has ended. Everyone, take your disciples back."

The voice of the elder presiding over the meeting echoed over the square, breaking the tense atmosphere between Qin Yi and Ning Suqiu.

Qin Yi calmed down and patted Ning Suqiu's shoulder gently, signaling her not to get too excited.

The two men turned around and left with their selected disciples.

At this time, Sheng Rao had already brought Lin Yu to her small courtyard in the back mountain.

The location here is remote and usually no one comes to disturb it, but it is surrounded by green trees, birds singing and flowers blooming, as if it is isolated from the world.

There is an exquisite attic in the courtyard, and in front of the attic there is a wide open space, on which are placed various instruments for cultivation.

Sheng Rao brought Lin Yu to the attic, stopped, and turned to look at him.

"Lin Yu, from now on, this is your place of cultivation. You don't need to care about other people's eyes and discussions. Just concentrate on cultivation and improve your strength."

Sheng Rao believed in her own judgment. Although Lin Yu had no spiritual roots now, what she lacked the least was elixirs. With a few more marrow cleansing pills, she would always have spiritual roots.

Lin Yu looked at Sheng Rao and felt a little inferior and guilty. He had no spiritual roots, but his master did not despise him and accepted him as a disciple.

"Master, why did you choose me?" This was something Lin Yu couldn't understand.

"I've made my choice. Why bother asking so many questions?" Sheng Rao smiled. She couldn't just say that she liked him, right?
