The real big guys are those with connections in the eyes of the system!

When the alchemist saw the finished pill, his face was filled with joy. "My pill was actually made! But why is the smell not as fragrant as described? Oh, never mind, that's it."

The fourth brother wanted to buy the furnace of pills from him, but he was short of money and finally continued to hide in the dark.

Watching the alchemist put away the medicine and leave, he actually felt relieved.

……

At this time, the elder on the stage looked extremely ugly.

He was eager to dig out the whereabouts of the elixir from Lao Si, but no matter how he asked, Lao Si's answer was unclear.

He even didn't see the appearance of the alchemist that day, and he couldn't even remember his location at that time.

The elder was so angry that he kicked him.

[Questioning the Conscience] was forced to be interrupted, and the fourth brother suffered backlash.

Seeing that nothing useful could be found in the mouths of the other three people, the Great Elder waved his hand and said, "That's it."

Having said this, he was about to end [Searching].

But at this time a large group of black bats flew over.

Everyone subconsciously tried to stop them, and the scene was very chaotic for a while.

But soon everyone realized that these bats had no intention of attacking people. Just when they were about to breathe a sigh of relief, they heard several screams.

They looked in the direction of the sound and discovered that the fifth and seventh brothers, who were almost able to successfully pass [Self-Searching], were also affected. At this moment, their cultivation was declining at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although the elders were very unhappy with these disciples, they did not want to punish them by destroying their practice.

Now that such a sudden change has occurred, the faces of several elders are very unhappy.

Just when they were wondering where these bats came from, one of the disciples suddenly burned one of them using the Fire Technique.

A disciple of the Taoism School sniffed the air and showed a look of surprise on his face, "This is actually made of paper!"

Others didn't expect this to be the answer, and couldn't help but verify it using their own methods.

Yiqing also grabbed one, and then heard the sound of paper tearing.

Very familiar operation.

Yiqing lowered her eyes and looked at Awang, and Awang happened to look up at that moment.

The answer in her heart was confirmed, and she mouthed "thank you" to it.

Awang wagged his tail.

Afterwards, several people received the punishment they deserved.

——The sect rules will not be soft-hearted just because their cultivation is damaged.

After admiring their miserable appearance, Yiqing proposed to the sect leader that he wanted to leave Xuanling Sect.

"I know you've been wronged during this period, but now that the truth is out, you can finally have a happy ending. If you want any compensation, just ask. But if you want to use my leaving as an excuse to make trouble, then you're being too clever for your own good."

He thought Yiqing wanted to use this to gain more benefits for himself.

Little did he know that it was his malicious speculation that made Yiqing determined to leave.

“Master is no longer here, and my fellow disciples have found their own places to go. Now I am the only one left at Qianren Peak. If I stay there, I will only be reminded of the past.

Besides, I have no hope of cultivation. Staying in the sect can neither improve my own strength nor bring honor to the sect. It is better to be a free and idle person, so that my life will not be in vain. "

The sect leader lowered his eyes in deep thought, and it seemed that he had taken her words to heart.

"But if you leave, Qianren Peak will really be empty. Why not..."

Yiqing knew that he wanted her to wait until the next wave of disciples arrived before leaving.

But she had made up her mind to leave and really didn't want to stay any longer.

"Isn't my senior brother still here? If the Sect Master really feels that we are short of people, you can release him first."

“No.” The sect leader refused without a second thought, “Jiang Han said that he suffers from hysteria and might hurt people if he is released.”

"I remember that the eldest brother is also very talented."

Following Yiqing's reminder, the sect leader couldn't help but think of the brilliant young man back then.

Although he was not born with a sword bone, he was a rare sword genius.

He only needs to watch Jiang Han's sword moves once to remember them. He can learn the simple ones directly, and can learn the difficult ones well after practicing them several times.

Before Qi Rang, he was the one who could bring the most glory to the sect.

There is a severe shortage of people in Qianren Peak nowadays, and it really needs people with outstanding talents to support the group.

The clan leader was very interested.

But he still rejected Yiqing's proposal, "The more outstanding he is, the greater the risk. For the safety of other disciples, it is better for him to continue to stay in the tower and practice quietly."

Yi Qing raised her eyes, "Master, have you ever thought about this possibility - if Master is jealous of my talent, then would he also be jealous of other people's talents? Is my senior brother really suffering from hysteria? Did Master only listen to what my Master said about this matter, or did you verify it yourself?"

The clan leader's body suddenly froze.

Yiqing looked at him seriously and said sincerely, "If there is any misunderstanding, it's not too late to resolve it now."

The clan leader's eyes moved slightly, and then he sighed softly, "You go back first. As for what you just said about leaving, I will consider it."

"The disciple retire."

……

The next day, her senior brother was released.

The once elegant young man has been imprisoned for so many years, and his temperament has changed drastically.

As soon as he raised his head, his gaze shot out like a sharp arrow, containing a chilling chill.

In Qi Rang's memory, she had only met this senior brother once, but he gave her many precious gifts. At that time, the smile on the corners of his lips was still gentle, and he also told her that if she encountered any problems in the future, she could seek help from him, her senior brother.

Such a brief contact certainly could not lead to any deep friendship between the two.

But the strange thing is that when they met again, the past scenes reappeared in front of him, and Yiqing's eyes inexplicably turned red, "Big Brother, you have suffered these years."

Hearing this title, the young man was a little surprised.

He looked at Yiqing carefully again.

The young face in his memory overlapped with the bright girl in front of him. The corners of his lips curled up slightly, "So it's you, Junior Sister. After so many years, you've grown up a lot."

The two didn't exchange much pleasantries.

But when our eyes occasionally meet, there is a tacit understanding that everything is implied.

Qianren Peak now has a talented disciple again, so Yiqing, the genius who died halfway, is no longer that important to the sect leader.

He waved his hand and agreed to Yiqing's request to leave the sect temporarily.

But Yiqing said at this time that he wanted to quit the sect, not leave temporarily.

The clan leader's face suddenly darkened, "Qi Rang, do you know what you are talking about?"

Yiqing nodded, "Of course I know."

The Sect Master was angered by her calm appearance, "Since you look down on our Xuanling Sect, I won't force you to stay. I just hope you won't regret it in the future!"

"This is a decision I have carefully considered, and no matter what happens, I certainly won't regret it."

“Okay, okay, okay!” The clan leader laughed in anger. He pointed to the door and gritted his teeth, “Get out of here!”

Yiqing hadn't originally intended to make things so ugly.

But some of the sect leader's actions really disappointed her.

In his previous life, he stood idly by and watched Qi Rang's death. In this life, he clearly knew that the eldest senior brother had been imprisoned for so many years because of Jiang Han's jealousy, but he did not reveal the truth. Instead, he announced that the eldest senior brother was released because his hysteria was cured.

Yes, as the leader of a sect, he always has to maintain the image of his teachers in the minds of his disciples.

But now Jiang Han has been possessed by the devil, and his scandal of being jealous of his disciple is already known to everyone. There is no need for the sect leader to cover up for him on this matter.

Doesn't he know that the slandered disciples also need justice?

He should have known this, but he still did it, clearly because he didn't care and believed that the grievances suffered by his disciples were insignificant.

Yiqing took one last look at Xuanling Sect, then called out to Ah Wang to leave together, "Let's go."

"and many more."

Someone called out from behind.

Yiqing turned around and saw Elder Luo from the Law Enforcement Hall, who looked very anxious. "Qi Rang, are you really leaving?"

Thinking about how Elder Luo was the only one who protected him when he was forced to question his conscience by those ungrateful people, Yiqing felt a slight warmth in his heart.

"Yes, my path of cultivation is interrupted. It's a waste of time to stay here. I might as well go out and take a look." Her tone was not as cold as when she faced the sect master. There was a hint of smile at the corners of her lips.

"But you no longer have the protection of the sect, and your cultivation has been mostly destroyed. I really don't feel comfortable letting you leave alone."

When Awang heard this, he immediately barked to show his presence.

But Elder Luo didn't even look at him. "I know you insisted on leaving because you were hurt by Jiang Han's behavior. But he also became a demon and left. Why do you have to hold on to the past?"
