Chapter 528 The Senior Brother's Insidious Acts

“Master, our Lingtian Sect is the orthodox sect. Even if Junior Sister Chenyan is wrong, it is not the Qin family’s place to interfere, much less their place to punish her!”

"If the Qin family has any objections, this disciple will lead the Lingtian Sect cultivators and fight without hesitation!"

Bai Ruochen stood with his hands behind his back, neither humble nor arrogant, exuding charm.

But Gu Jiancheng and the others found it all rather awkward.

"What do you mean even if my junior sister is wrong?"

"Senior Brother, do you also believe that Junior Sister killed Qin Xian?"

Huangfu Shan frowned.

"Junior sister is indeed a suspect."

"However, compared to my junior sister, the person I suspect more is him!"

At this moment, Bai Ruochen's gaze suddenly fell on Gu Jiancheng.

"I?"

Gu Jiancheng was taken aback, thinking to himself that this guy had a pretty good eye.

"Otherwise, Junior Sister Chenyan herself has no combat power. She can only enhance your combat power to fight Qin Xian. Moreover, you must have used some kind of trick!"

Bai Ruochen seemed to have made up his mind about Gu Jiancheng at this moment, and then looked at Ling Chenyan and Huangfu Shan.

"Moreover, even if we want to give the Qin family an explanation, handing over this person is the most appropriate option."

"In this way, Junior Sister Chenyan can be saved."

"Senior Brother, why are you like this too?" Ling Chenyan frowned.

She realized that although the senior brother spoke nicely, he wasn't really there to help them.

"You have no evidence at all, what's the point of forcing someone else to take the blame?"

"Chen Yan is right. Even if the Qin family comes after us for this, I will take responsibility!"

"With me here, let's see who dares to touch Chenyan and her friends."

At this moment, the female elder snorted coldly, unleashing her full aura.

For a time, even the elders were at a loss.

"Dust and Smoke, let's go!"

Finally, the female elder snorted coldly and led Ling Chenyan and the others away from the Elder Hall.

"Elder, what should we do?"

Watching the elder's departing figure, the other cultivators looked at the Grand Elder and asked with furrowed brows.

"Hmph, since Twenty Sister has volunteered to take on this, then we'll just have to watch!"

"In short, if Lingtian Sect is in trouble, it is her responsibility!"

The Grand Elder snorted coldly, then looked at Bai Ruochen and said with a smile, "Ruochen, you have advanced to the Great Luo Realm, surpassing all other sects of the same level within a radius of ten thousand miles."

"I have already sent invitations to other sects to host a celebratory banquet for you!"

Bai Ruochen was delighted upon hearing this, but then said seriously, "This disciple had no intention of being so ostentatious."

"No, this is not ostentation, but to enhance the prestige of my Lingtian Sect. I want to show other sects that the geniuses of my Lingtian Sect are number one!"

"Go and prepare!"

The Grand Elder laughed loudly.

"Then this disciple will take his leave."

Ling Chenyan nodded and then left the Elder Hall.

On the way down the mountain, Ling Chenyan was still angry and said, "Master, my friends haven't joined the Lingtian Sect yet."

"This is something I promised before I came."

"Hehe, what's so difficult about that? I've always been in charge of recruiting new members for the Lingtian Sect, so I'll just approve it!" The female elder smiled and then raised her hand to give each of Gu Jiancheng and the other two a white jade token.

The jade plaque bears the inscription "Lingtian Fourth Class".

"From now on, you are disciples of my Lingtian Sect, but your rank is only the lowest, fourth-class disciple," the female elder said.

"Why am I only a fourth-class disciple?"

Ling Chenyan frowned.

This made her lose face, and Gu Jiancheng's combat strength was comparable to that of the senior brother and the second senior sister.

"It's alright, a fourth-class disciple is nothing."

Gu Jiancheng simply smiled and stopped Ling Chenyan.

It doesn't matter what level of disciple they are, and in the current situation, it's not suitable anyway.

Once the Sect Master of Lingtian emerges from seclusion and regains control, things will be much easier to discuss.

However, he had originally planned to sell some of his treasures to the Lingtian Sect, but now it seems that it is not suitable.

"Junior sister!"

At this moment, Bai Ruochen suddenly caught up with them.

Ling Chenyan and Huangfu Shan's expressions immediately darkened.

They originally had a pretty good relationship with their senior brother, but today's events left them speechless.

"Junior sisters, please don't blame me. I am the senior brother, and I am not afraid of trouble, but I also have to think about the sect."

"Furthermore, Chenyan, you are the sect leader's daughter and are very important to the Lingtian Sect. Do not be misled by those with ulterior motives."

As Bai Ruochen spoke, he looked at Gu Jiancheng again.

"Senior Brother, he's my good friend, and without him, I would have died in the secret realm. You'd better stop being sarcastic!"

Ling Chenyan said coldly.

"Senior Brother, you seem to have changed lately."

Huangfu Shan also said.

"Have I changed?"

"Junior Sister Shan, don't you know who I am?" Bai Ruochen frowned upon hearing this.

"Hehe, I don't know."

"Junior sister, let's go!"

Huangfu Shan sneered, then went down the mountain with the others.

"Junior sister?"

Watching his two junior sisters' departing figures, Bai Ruochen's face gradually rose with anger, which then turned into killing intent and fell on Gu Jiancheng.

"Huangfu Shan, I know you've always looked down on me. If it weren't for the fact that your family is still somewhat useful, why would I even look at you!"

"And Gu Jiancheng, huh? Let's see how you die!"

snort!

Immediately, Bai Ruochen snorted coldly and left.

The female elder left after arranging a cultivation cave for Gu Jiancheng.

So much has happened since Ling Chenyan returned; she still has a lot to deal with.

From Ling Chenyan's words, Gu Jiancheng also learned that this elder was named Hua Yuexi, and was her father's junior sister. Since her mother passed away, she had been the kindest person to her besides her father.

"Junior sister, there are no outsiders here, so you don't need to hide it from your senior sister. Tell me, did you encounter Qin Xian in the secret realm?"

Inside Gu Jiancheng's cave, Huangfu Shan asked.

At this moment, Ling Chenyan glanced at Gu Jiancheng, who then laughed and said, "Of course I saw it."

"I can see for myself that he was indeed killed by us!"

"What?!" Huangfu Shan's expression changed drastically upon hearing this, and she exclaimed in shock, "How is this possible?!"

"His combat strength is not weak. Even with Junior Sister Chenyan helping you, but..."

"Could it be that he was injured and that's when you ran into him?"

"No, Brother Jiancheng defeated him in just two moves!" Ling Chenyan laughed. "Brother Jiancheng is very powerful. Perhaps even Senior Sister wouldn't be a match for him!"

"You flatter me. It was also thanks to the help of dust and smoke that it was so easy."

"So, even without the dust and smoke, you could still kill Qin Xian?" Huangfu Shan asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Ah."

Gu Jiancheng did not deny it.

"Well, I'm really curious about your fighting strength. How about we find a place to spar?"

Huangfu Shan suddenly raised an eyebrow.
