Chapter 499
Chapter 499
Zi Ling'er was stopped by Jiang Min and others again. When she heard the word "failed the exam",
A hint of helplessness and stubbornness appeared on his face.
Then, he sighed in his heart, looked at Jiang Min, Song Ya, and Zhu Feng, and said apologetically:
"Senior Sister Jiang! I know I was wrong before, and now I sincerely apologize to you. I hope you won't bother with me anymore, okay?"
Faced with Jiang Min and others' picking on her, Zi Ling'er chose to give in again, hoping that her apology would elicit the other party's concession and stop causing trouble for her.
Because no matter how unhappy her current life is, it is much better than selling dragon fruit in Tianyin City.
Before, he not only had to endure the harassment from the ruffians on the street, but also the beatings from the bully tenants.
Therefore, the sarcasm and ridicule from Jiang Min and others meant nothing to Zi Ling'er.
However, Zi Ling'er had no idea that sometimes people are so mean. The more you give in, the more they will take advantage of you.
"Pa..." At this time, a crisp slap sounded, and it was Jiang Min who slapped Zi Ling'er on the face.
Caught off guard, and as both of them were at the eighth level of Qi Refining Stage, Zi Ling'er was unable to dodge in time, and a clear palm print immediately appeared on her face.
"Senior Sister Jiang, aren't you going too far? Disciples are forbidden from fighting privately. Don't you know that? Be careful or I'll report it to the elders, and you'll be punished as well."
Seeing this, Lin Dan quickly protected Zi Ling'er and looked at Jiang Min indignantly.
"Hahaha... What a joke, go ahead and sue! Do you think the elder will believe me or this loser who took the spirit-enhancing pill?"
Hearing this, Jiang Min laughed even more arrogantly as if he had heard a joke.
"That's right! How could the elders listen to her, a loser who took the Spirit Enhancement Pill?"
Jiang Min's companion Song Ya echoed.
"You... you still have the nerve to mention the Spirit Enhancement Pill. If it weren't for you framing Zi Ling'er, how could she have been eliminated directly? You are so despicable."
When Lin Dan heard the other party mention the Spirit Enhancement Pill, he became so angry that he even stopped calling her Senior Sister Jiang.
"Hahaha..." As a result, Lin Dan's words immediately attracted ridicule from Jiang Min and others, who said that they could not produce any evidence at all.
The commotion here soon attracted the attention of some of the disciples who had not left.
At this time, Zhu Feng reminded Jiang Min quietly without leaving a trace.
Jiang Min gave Zhu Feng a look that said, "It's alright," and then warned him coldly:
"Humph! If you don't have any evidence, I advise you not to spit blood at me. Believe it or not, I will tear your mouths apart."
"Lin Dan! Forget it!" Zi Ling'er said anxiously, holding her friend Lin Dan's arm, because she really didn't like the feeling of being watched by a group of people.
"I don't believe it!" At this time, a neither cold nor indifferent voice sounded, mixed with a faint true energy, so that everyone present could hear it clearly.
When everyone heard the words, they all looked in the direction of the voice.
I saw a young monk with a delicate figure, distinct features, handsome appearance, sword-like eyebrows, galaxy-like eyes, and a cynical smile on his face.
The person who was walking slowly out of the crowd was Lu Chen'er.
"Master...Master! Master, why are you here?"
When Zi Ling'er saw the appearance of the person coming, she immediately shouted in surprise,
Then she ran over very intimately and threw herself into Lu Chen's arms, tears streaming down her face, her crying filled with endless grievance.
This scene immediately attracted the pointing and whispering of the onlookers, especially Jiang Min and others, who showed contempt.
After all, although Zi Ling'er is still young, she has grown into a graceful young lady with willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a delicate nose, red lips, rosy cheeks, and a bud on her chest, which makes Lu Chen feel indescribably strange.
What's more, a man and a woman hugging each other in public was somewhat unreasonable for these young boys and girls who were just beginning to fall in love.
Hearing the discussions around him, Lu Chen couldn't help but blush, and he quickly pushed Zi Ling'er away.
When Lu Chen saw some marks of being beaten on Zi Ling'er's face, his expression suddenly turned cold.
There was a powerful aura emanating from his body, which frightened everyone so much that they took a few steps back.
Then he looked at Jiang Min and others indifferently and asked in a cold voice:
"Who hit Ling'er's face?"
Jiang Min and the others subconsciously took a few steps back after hearing this, all showing expressions of fear, but they did not dare to admit it.
Because they had only felt the powerful aura emanating from Lu Chen from their teachers, it meant that Zi Ling'er's master must have extremely terrifying cultivation level.
The three of them had already begun to think of retreating, but they were enveloped by Lu Chen's spiritual sense and did not dare to leave rashly.
Seeing that no one dared to speak, Lu Chen asked Zi Ling'er what was going on.
Zi Ling'er had seen Lu Chen beating up those tenants before, and was worried that he would not control the severity of his attacks, which would bring trouble to his master, so she kept persuading Lu Chen to just give up.
Seeing that Lu Chen was so strong, Lin Dan, in order to seek justice for Zi Ling'er, told him the whole story without hesitation.
It turned out that after Zi Ling'er was brought to Fanyin Pavilion, she had been practicing in Beiji Peak.
Because she had been cleansed of her meridians and marrow by Lu Chen, she had extraordinary aptitude for cultivation. Combined with her own efforts, she quickly stood out from the many disciples and was appreciated by the elders.
But it was precisely because of this that she was envied by Jiang Min and others, who targeted Zi Ling'er everywhere.
What's even more infuriating is that during the sect's inner disciple assessment test, which is only held every three years, Jiang Min used tricks to make Zi Ling'er take a spirit-enhancing pill.
Spirit-enhancing pills can greatly increase the spiritual power of cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage in a short period of time. This type of pill is considered a banned drug in assessment tests.
However, she was caught red-handed by the elder in charge of the assessment test, who immediately disqualified Zi Ling'er from the assessment.
This means that if Zi Ling'er wants to enter the inner gate that floats above their heads every day, she must wait another three years.
However, Jiang Min and others passed the assessment test smoothly, and they will be brought to the inner gate in a few days.
So before leaving, Jiang Min and others did not forget to criticize Zi Ling'er. After all, Zi Ling'er was the talented disciple that everyone expected, so Zi Ling'er was picked on.
After listening to this, Lu Chen was also very surprised. Although intrigues and deceptions were common in the world of cultivation.
But what he didn't expect was that even these teenagers would become so scheming and deceitful.
When Jiang Min and the other two saw that the truth was exposed, they looked somewhat panicked.
Lu Chen looked at them unkindly again. Seeing this, they subconsciously took a few steps back again.
"You... don't come over here. We are all disciples carefully trained by the sect. We are the hope of the future of Brahma Sound Pavilion.
You are a grown man... If you dare to rely on your own skills to bully us, you... Aren't you ashamed?"
Jiang Min mustered up his courage and nervously asked moral blackmail.
