Mi Xinghe was the sole recipient of the punishment, leading to the a.s.sumption that her skills were far from commendable, right? She evidently had a considerable distance to cover on her journey of improvement.
“Frankly, I believe Mi Xinghe’s actions were rather foolish. Instead of storing the powder within her spatial storage, she carried it on her person. That decision appears quite lacking in foresight, which perhaps explains her current predicament,” remarked the Head of the Undead Race.
Di Hongyun, bristling with displeasure, addressed the Hall Chief of the Undead
Race, “You are a woman, and you remain a mere novice within the Supreme Sect. Your words are unbecoming!”
The Head of the Undead Race responded with a dismissive eye-roll, utterly unimpressed by Di Hongyun’s outburst. He had seldom encountered a more vexing individual.
Sensing an impending argument between the two, Gu Chaoyan intervened calmly, “Actually, the powder is still within her spatial storage.”
The Head of the Undead Race expressed bewilderment, “Then why did it become visible to everyone? Is her interspatial ring malfunctioning?”
Gu Chaoyan rolled her eyes at his apparent lack of insight. “Where do you think she placed it?” she asked, her tone laden with sarcasm.
Only then did the Head of the Undead Race grasp the situation. Gu Chaoyan had set him up, though it wasn’t much of a setup, as he did possess the incriminating item.
Thankful for his cooperation with Gu Chaoyan, he silently acknowledged that without her, he would have faced utter ruin.
“Junior Sister, your cunning is truly admirable! Amidst all the chaos, Mi Xinghe did indeed have the powder, but it was not rightfully hers! Hahahaha!” Di Hongyun declared proudly.
Di Hongyun displayed such arrogance as if he were personally responsible for the situation.
The Head of the Undead Race responded by rolling his eyes at him, treating his pride as the folly it appeared to be.
He couldn’t help but wonder what Di Hongyun found so boast-worthy.
As the three of them engaged in their heated discussion, Elder Lin abruptly entered the scene with evident distress. He anxiously addressed Gu Chaoyan, “Gu Chaoyan, something is amiss!”
“What’s wrong? Has something else happened?” Gu Chaoyan inquired, concerned.
“Yuan Jia has encountered a problem during his breakthrough. He seems to have fallen into Energy Deviation,” Elder Lin explained with a worried expression.
Yuan Jia’s breakthrough had been an unusually prolonged process, making this development even more baffling.
Unexpectedly, he now grappled with Energy Deviation.
However, Gu Chaoyan couldn’t help but wonder why Elder Lin was here. The Supreme Sect had plenty of elder figures who should know how to handle such situations. Why seek out a disciple who hadn’t yet attained the Paragon Realm?
A complex expression crossed Gu Chaoyan’s face. She cared deeply for Senior Brother Yuan Jia, but her abilities weren’t sufficient to address this crisis.
“Elder Lin, I am but a Martial G.o.d, not a Paragon,” Gu Chaoyan pointed out.
Only then did Elder Lin realize the situation.
That was indeed the case. For some reason, he had instinctively turned to her.
Nevertheless, he pressed on, determined to ensure her safety. “Come with me, for your own protection,” he insisted seriously.
Gu Chaoyan furrowed her brow, puzzled by the situation. Why was Elder Lin acting this way?
Regardless of the potential consequences, Elder Lin disregarded them and escorted her away.
Yuan Jia remained in a meditative state, appearing utterly miserable. Even the elder members of the Fist Faction couldn’t rouse him.
“If this continues, Yuan Jia will be irreparably damaged. He’ll become as witless as a fool,” Elder Lin whispered to Gu Chaoyan.
Gu Chaoyan couldn’t bear to see that fate befall her Senior Brother..
