Chapter 1238: The Undefeated Ground

d and with nothing."Wan Guifen's resentment was too heavy, it affected the operation of the small world, so this task was created."The tasker's voice echoed."Didn't you say this was a simple high scho...Zhang Fan directly reported the matter to the Law Enforcement Hall, claiming that rumors had tarnished Elder Fu Feng's reputation as a guest elder.

Before, the rumors were only spread privately. The law enforcement hall knew about it, but as long as the parties involved didn't pursue it, they wouldn't interfere. Now that the head disciple of Master Fu Feng has brought it to the surface, they will have to investigate.

The law enforcement agency investigated the matter promptly, and they quickly tracked down Feng Shuying by following the clues.

At first, Feng Shuheng tried to deny everything. Even the Enforcement Hall wasn't used to her kind of defiance and took her back there. They also brought back all the disciples who had spread rumors for questioning. With so many testimonies, Feng Shuheng couldn't deny it anymore.

But Feng Shuying still gritted her teeth and persisted.

Although I was the one who spread this, what I said was true. As for why it became distorted later, that wasn't my intention. You can ask the people involved in this matter for clarification.

The disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall scoffed at Feng Shuo Ying's sophistry. They had seen such people before, and since both individuals mentioned in the rumors were in seclusion, there was no way to verify the truth. It was clearly a tactic to delay time.

Fu Fengzhu, the master, looked at the message sent back by his eldest disciple and calmly said:

"No rush, let's wait another two days and see. Elder Bai should have some good news coming soon."

Two days ago, the place where Lian Yi was in seclusion began to be overcast with dark clouds and lightning flashed. It was clear that a bolt of tribulation would soon strike.

And all of this was created by Lian Ri using her own illusion fox's talent skills, coupled with the assistance of talismans. She is already at the seventh stage, equivalent to the human Nascent Soul period, and it is impossible for her to go through another Heavenly Tribulation.

But her original reason for joining Yuntengzong was to ascend to the next level. She couldn't possibly cross the Divine Transformation Tribulation outside of Yuntengzong. Doing so would easily create hidden dangers. Nothing was more convincing than ascending to the next level under the watchful eyes of Yuntengzong disciples.

This was a decision made after much deliberation by ripples. Taking this opportunity to elevate the status of this guest elder, for Yuan Ying and Hua Shen are two realms, but they represent entirely different meanings.

A sect might not care much about a guest elder at the Nascent Soul stage, but a guest elder at the Divine Transformation stage, they would definitely want to keep in the sect. That's how the Yuntian Sect developed as well.

Just the day after Fu Zu Tian finished telling this story, Lian Yi welcomed her own "Hualing" tribulation. A full forty-five bolts of tribulation thunder struck down, drawing the attention of all the disciples in the sect. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Lian Yi ascended to the Hualing realm. The moment her pressure spread out, everyone felt it.

Liàn Yī collected the talisman formation, tidied herself up, and with a flash of her figure, she appeared outside the tribulation site. Fú Zhu Tiān was the first to greet her.

"Congratulations to Elder Bai for advancing to the stage of a Divine Soul. This is a blessing for our Fufen Peak!"

"Fu Feng praised, 'If it weren't for the sect providing Bai with such a good place to ascend, I wouldn't have been confident in striking the Heavenly Transformation. Joining Yuntai Zong this time is the most correct decision I've ever made.'"

A ripple of a smile played on her face.

"It is our fortune that Elder Bai has joined the Yunteng Sect."

All the elders and peak masters of Yuntian Sect greeted Lianyi with smiles. Whether familiar or not, they first made a friendly appearance before talking further.

After dealing with the congratulations, Lian Ri turned to Fu Fengzhu and said:

"Sect Master, Bai has just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and wants to close-door train for a while to consolidate his cultivation. Therefore, he would like to request a postponement of the sect's tasks for the next few years. I wonder if this is possible"

"That's fine, everyone knows that the longer you practice, the longer your seclusion will be. Some people choose to do sect missions in advance, and some who are eager to consolidate their cultivation will choose to do missions after finishing their seclusion. This doesn't affect anything."

"That would be great. I'll go change my identity jade pendant and report in, just to let you know that I'll need at least ten years for this retreat."

The ripples did not hide anything, they made everything clear.

Elder Bai, I have Zhang Fan go and help you change your identity jade pendant. There is something I need to tell you.

After Fu Feng solemnly told Lian Yi, he waved his hand at his eldest disciple.

Ripple pretended to be clueless, handing her old identity token to Zhang Fan. She kept hers, waiting until after Zhang Fan left before speaking:

"Master Fu Feng, is there anything you need me to do Just say the word."

"This matter has some relation to Elder Bai..."

Thereafter, Fu Feng informed the gathering about all the rumors concerning her and Lian Xi Ye, followed by explaining the Enforcement Hall's stance on the matter.

Lian Ri, looking deeply ashamed, clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully after Fu Fengzhu finished speaking.

"This matter is because Bai failed to handle it properly, giving some people an opportunity to take advantage, and even escalated to the peak master's level. It's my fault."

The Peak Lord knows that I am an itinerant cultivator, and my family also hails from a remote border town. That I was able to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage is thanks to my family's utmost efforts. I clawed my way up through hardships all the way to Yuntian Sect, forging my own path to the heavens. Naturally, I cannot allow others to sully it.

And I, Bai Lianyi, also know well the saying 'it is better to be safe than sorry'. There is also a self-proving stone tablet here, Master. Please take a look first. If there are no problems, then we can send it to the Law Enforcement Hall.

Let those who spread rumors deal with them however they see fit. Otherwise, others will really think Bai Lianyi is easy to bully and that anyone can step on her.

As soon as she finished speaking, Lian Yi gave the Shadow Stone to Fu Zu Tian.

After Fu Feng finished reading the contents of the Retaining Shadow Jade, he knew that there was a high probability that the problem stemmed from Lian Xiye.

They are all people who have been through it, they can see the admiration and calculations in Xinyue's eyes when looking at Elder Bai, especially under Elder Bai's straightforward refusal, Xinyue still refuses to give up, shamelessly fighting for an opportunity for herself.

While Elder Bai's approach was very magnanimous, he didn't say anything harsh. Although he denied Lian Xiye's talent in the field of talisman making, believing he shouldn't be confined to it, he still encouraged him to diligently cultivate.

Even because she had borrowed Lian Xiye's residual symbols before and even gave him spirit stones and pills to improve his cultivation, she didn't owe him anything. As an elder, she was a rare and principled person.

This disciple, every night, would attend my class on talisman making. He would constantly ask me for tips and advice on how to make talismans. However, he was the kind of student who was diligent but lacked natural talent. I have gently advised him several times.

But he seemed obsessed, insisting on learning talisman making. He even went so far as to ask to be my disciple, which of course I refused.

Since it's about taking on an apprentice, one naturally wants someone with talent and diligence, who respects their master and can carry on their legacy. This man has ulterior motives even at night, so I didn't even consider taking him as an apprentice.

But he was still entangled, so I proposed that the sect's grand competition, entering the top ten before reaching the Golden Core stage, would be the minimum standard for taking him as a disciple.

At his current cultivation level of early Jindan, it's actually quite difficult. I didn't want to discourage him too much, so I gave him some spirit stones and pills to help him retreat and breakthrough.

"If he couldn't make it into the top ten at the Jindan stage, at least his own cultivation wouldn't fall behind. It would also extinguish his thoughts of becoming a disciple. This matter would be perfectly resolved, but I didn't expect someone to suddenly intervene."wo days and come to the educated youth point to propose to me, I will have everything ready for you beforehand."With a crack, Zhao Jingcheng fell straight to the ground. Luckily, there was snow cushio...
