"As a disciple of the Immortal Sect, does what I, the Sect Leader, say require your comntary?"
Showing disrespect?
As Wen Ping’s voice fell, the people around him quickly dispersed, clearing a ten-ter radius around Wen Ping and his companions almost instantly.
Bainian Hanshan and Bu Ling, whether as the leaders of the Heaven and Earth Lake’s giant influence or due to their power, are renowned far and wide.
Now, soone is actually quarreling with them.
Upon hearing Wen Ping’s words, Bu Ling hesitated for a few seconds, then imdiately turned and took two steps forward to stand a few steps away from Wen Ping. The aura of the Upper Realm of Mountain Suppression surged like water from a deep well.
"Boy, what did you just say?"
"Xiang."
Wen Ping stood calmly and composed.
In the eyes of outsiders, in the face of this imposing presence, Wen Ping seed as small as a pedestrian at the foot of a mountain.
Bu Ling was that towering mountain!
Upon hearing Wen Ping’s call, Bainian Xiang quickly said, "Uncle Bu, I have actually joined the Immortal Sect."
"What?"
Bu Ling’s aura suddenly intensified.
This surge was sudden and unexpected.
anwhile, Bainian Hanshan shot a sharp glance.
Bainian Xiang continued, "I originally planned to tell you later, but today you have gone too far. Uncle Bu, why do you vent your ill mood on others? The Sect Leader understands very well and what he said is for my own good."
"You..."
Bu Ling was montarily speechless.
Bainian Hanshan’s face imdiately fell, stepping away without saying a word.
As the Sect Leader of the Hidden Dragon Sect, having his daughter join a small sect would surely bring ridicule if word got out.
Especially talking about this matter in public!
"Father!"
Bainian Xiang called out, then bowed slightly to Wen Ping before hastily following her father.
Bu Ling turned back to Wen Ping, his gaze imdiately shooting a hint of hostility, and then said, "What rit or virtue do you have to recruit my Hidden Dragon Sect’s successor?"
"That is not sothing I need to tell you, nor do you need to know," Wen Ping said, his cold eyes fixed on Bu Ling.
If Bu Ling intended to make a move, Wen Ping wouldn’t hesitate to unleash the Devouring Beast.
After all, the Immortal Sect needed to gain fa.
In whatever way it cos, it’s acceptable to Wen Ping.
Bu Ling’s brows twitched, and upon hearing the chatter around him, he coldly swept his gaze over them.
"We will et again!"
Bu Ling gritted his teeth and turned away.
This was a serious matter; he needed to go back and inform the Sect Leader promptly.
Creating a scene here would be pointless, and would only turn the Hidden Dragon Sect into a spectacle for others to watch!
Once Bu Ling left, Wen Ping returned to his usual deanor.
As if he hadn’t just faced off against Bu Ling.
"Let’s return to the inn first."
"Yes."
Huai Ye nodded and followed Wen Ping away.
...
anwhile, Bainian Hanshan rode a Beast Vehicle back to his residence.
When Bainian Xiang returned, the people of the Hidden Dragon Sect were already discussing her joining the small sect.
Bainian Xiang ignored the chatter and went straight upstairs to find her father.
However, the room door was closed tight!
Knocking on the door proved futile.
Other elders of the Hidden Dragon Sect advised Bainian Xiang to let the Sect Leader cool down first.
Bainian Xiang was helpless and had to leave, obediently staying in her room while waiting for Bainian Hanshan to settle down.
So, several days passed, with her father refusing to see her, but challenge letters kept arriving. Fortunately, while Bainian Hanshan didn’t want to see Bainian Xiang, he ca to her when a challenge letter arrived.
"Father!"
Bainian Xiang called out, but her eyes didn’t show any trace of sha.
Because she didn’t feel that joining the Immortal Sect was anything to be ashad of; in fact, joining the Immortal Sect was the best decision she had ever made.
Bainian Hanshan coldly said, "No need to say much, the Sect Leader will pretend as if I never had a daughter..."
Then Bainian Hanshan turned to ask Bu Ling, "Old Bu, have you carefully studied the challengers?"
Bu Ling replied, "Studied, their power is average, and there’s a high chance of victory."
Bainian Hanshan said, "Be thorough... she may not be promising, but my Hidden Dragon Sect’s reputation must be preserved."
Having said this, he walked away.
Bainian Xiang watched her father’s departing figure, wanting to speak but refraining.
Thinking to herself: Since you think I am not promising, I will prove it to you!
When she returned ho from East Lake, the master had anticipated this outco and also knew her father would react this way. Because the master understood her father very well. That’s why she had never told him about joining the Immortal Sect.
The original plan was to prove herself before talking about the Immortal Sect.
Now that her father found out early.
It’s no problem.
Bu Ling sighed and also left, but stopped at the door and suddenly said, "Xiang, this ti you’ve really disappointed your father. Do you realize your actions would bring so much ridicule to your father from the Xia Family and cause the Hidden Dragon Sect to be mocked by many forces?"
Bainian Xiang replied, "Mock? What qualifies them to mock?"
Mock the Immortal Sect for being weak?
Haha.
The Immortal Sect’s strength far exceeds that of all the Four-star Giant Influences!
Bu Ling saw Bainian Xiang’s lack of remorse, his expression reflecting deeper disappointnt.
Soon it was afternoon, and Bainian Xiang and her companions arrived at the Secret Realm as planned for the upcoming challenge.
Bainian Hanshan did not choose to watch the fight closely but instead went to the Floating Island, finding a distant spot. Because good news doesn’t go out but bad news travels fast; Bainian Hanshan was certain the Xia Family would co to mock.
However, hiding far couldn’t help.
The Xia Family still ca.
Xiahou brought several elders and sat not far from Bainian Hanshan, provocatively greeting him.
Bainian Hanshan ignored it, getting up and ready to leave.
Xiahou laughed and said, "Tsk tsk, Bainian Xiang is certainly a good girl. Her talent isn’t great, yet she ssily entered a sect, making our Grand Sect Leader’s face look as bad as having lost a dozen White Crystal Ores."
Seeing Bainian Hanshan still wanting to leave, Xiahou added, "Go ahead, go ahead... now the Hidden Dragon Sect can only hide from our Xia Family."
"If worthless talk could harm, Xiahou, you would have killed a thousand tis over," Bainian Hanshan retorted, returning to his seat.
Leaving?
Doing so would be admitting cowardice, such a disgrace!
Staying here, treating Xiahou as re air.
Then all mbers of the Hidden Dragon Sect followed Bainian Hanshan’s example, ignoring the Xia Family mbers completely and disregarding whatever the Xia Family was saying next.
At this point, the Xia Family said whatever could disgust their opponents.
The Hidden Dragon Sect had anger in their hearts, but couldn’t vent it.
The Xia Family saw Bainian Hanshan behaving like a log, showing a strange smile.
They knew Bainian Hanshan was deeply troubled inside.
Next, they would let Bainian Hanshan experience even more distress.
"Hanshan, let tell you sothing. The team challenging your little girl includes mbers of the Xia Family. Similarly, they’re cultivated based on your Hidden Dragon Sect’s Sword Technique, perfectly countering the current Realm."
Saying this, Xiahou laughed loudly.
Bainian Hanshan’s eyes froze, but his first reaction wasn’t looking at Xiahou, it was looking at Bu Ling beside him!
Yet another trap set by the Xia Family?
