Chapter 59

But in the end, he could not say anything to deny the facts.

"Master, this disciple has implicated the sect and deserves to die."

Upon hearing Zhen Zhen Zhibing's words, Qiu Qiu Chuji also knew that what Gu Gu Hanyuan said was likely the truth.

He felt both heartache for his beloved disciple being so miserable and anger at his mistake.

On the side, Li Mochou also looked at Little Dragon Maiden and Zhen Zhen Zhibing in surprise, not expecting such a thing to have happened last night, and also realized that she had been implicated by Little Dragon Maiden and the others.

She had always been jealous of her master favoring Little Dragon Maiden, so she even thought darkly that it would have been better if she had been the one ruined by Zhen Zhen Zhibing last night.

For some reason, when she thought of this, she subconsciously glanced at Gu Gu Hanyuan, who stood proudly in the field. ===== CHAPTER 104 =====

At this point, the matter of Zhen Zhen Zhibing had been concluded.

Zhao Zhao Zhijing, who had been hiding in the crowd when Li Mochou was showing her power, saw his greatest rival for the position of Sect Master ruined. While sighing that "Heaven helps me," he wanted to perform well in front of everyone so he could quickly take over the position.

So he walked into the field, cupping his hands in a salute, but his opening words were extremely impolite.

"I am Zhao Zhao Zhijing, greetings to this Junior Brother. Zhen Zhen Zhibing has violated the Quanzhen Sect's precepts and should be judged by our sect itself. Isn't this Junior Brother's private torture and interrogation against the rules? The Wudang Sect also has no right to interfere in our Quanzhen Sect's affairs."

Being both Daoist sects, calling him Junior Brother was fine. It was just that Zhao Zhao Zhijing wanted to take advantage of the seniority.

Gu Gu Hanyuan looked at Zhao Zhao Zhijing, who was finally jumping out, and was very satisfied with his cooperation.

"Jianghu people handle Jianghu affairs. Does the Quanzhen Sect, which prides itself on being a righteous sect, want to shield Zhen Zhen Zhibing? Judge it yourself? Whether the Quanzhen Sect, which can raise such a disciple, can handle it impartially is questionable. For such scum, don't talk about private torture; what would be inappropriate about killing him on the spot? As for the 'Junior Brother' talk, I cannot afford it."

"Hmph, Zhen Zhibing has always respected his teachers and loved his fellow disciples, with a pure character, as everyone in the Quanzhen Sect has witnessed. I think it was that Dragon-surnamed demoness who was dissolute and seduced Zhen Zhibing into violating the precepts."

Sun Bu'er was originally a rigid and conservative person who hated beautiful and romantic women the most; she had disliked Huang Rong very much when she was young.

And Little Dragon Maiden's beauty was the best she had ever seen, even better than Huang Rong's back then.

Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan belittle the Quanzhen Sect, she couldn't help but maliciously mock Little Dragon Maiden.

"Miss Long is cold and aloof, with natural grace and spirit, as pure as the moon and as innocent as a child. To be called dissolute by you, it really is 'the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam is awry' in the Quanzhen Sect."

Gu Gu Hanyuan put away the faint smile he had been maintaining and sneered.

Little Dragon Maiden had felt uncomfortable when she heard Sun Bu'er's slander, but she didn't expect to be defended by Gu Gu Hanyuan, and hearing his praise, she felt a warmth in her heart.

Li Mochou felt jealousy rise again, feeling that everyone only liked Little Dragon Maiden, and the one person she finally met who didn't look at her differently only cared about her good points.

"Presumptuous! You are just a small disciple of the Wudang Sect, how dare you discuss our Quanzhen Sect!"

Qiu Qiu Chuji was hot-tempered, and because he was indeed in the wrong regarding Zhen Zhen Zhibing, he hadn't been able to attack.

Seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan point the spearhead at the Quanzhen Sect, he could no longer endure it and scolded him.

"Heh, I said, Jianghu people handle Jianghu affairs. Since coming up the mountain, I first saw a group of seniors who have been famous for decades besieging a woman, then Yu Wanting to shield a sect's scum, and even slandering Miss Long without any evidence. What I have seen and heard has not a single bit of the demeanor of a righteous sect. I am deeply ashamed for you."

Gu Gu Hanyuan was not polite, occupying the moral high ground first.

"What a 'Jianghu people handle Jianghu affairs.' I want to see if your martial arts are as sharp as your tongue."

Qiu Qiu Chuji cared most about his reputation, but he was left speechless, so he simply wanted to use force to make Gu Gu Hanyuan shut up.

"Please enlighten me."

Gu Gu Hanyuan drew his Hero Sword, signaling the other party to strike first.

Qiu Qiu Chuji felt that Gu Gu Hanyuan was young and that it would be inappropriate for him as a senior to strike first, but he didn't expect him to look like he was yielding the first move, which infuriated him, and he used the Quanzhen Sword Art to stab at Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Since learning the "Inexplicable Sword Art," Gu Gu Hanyuan felt that all kinds of sword arts were almost at his fingertips, and no flaw could escape his eyes.

At this moment, before Qiu Qiu Chuji's longsword even got close, he had already seen all its changes.

With a move called "Famous for a Time," his Hero Sword narrowly avoided the edge of Qiu Qiu Chuji's longsword and stabbed at the flaw in his sword art. Qiu Qiu Chuji had no time to defend and, before he could react, was stabbed in the arm, his longsword falling to the ground.

Everyone in the field was shocked, not expecting Qiu Qiu Chuji, the strongest among the Seven Quanzhen Masters, to be unable to withstand even one move.

"Late Xiantian! I don't know when the Wudang Sect produced such a powerful young expert."

Ma Yu, who was watching on the side, although not the strongest, had followed Wang Wang Chongyang the longest, so he had the basic eye for it and saw at a glance that Gu Gu Hanyuan was at the late Xiantian realm.

Of course, this was because Gu Gu Hanyuan intentionally only showed the late Xiantian realm; otherwise, he could have scared them to death.

Hearing Ma Yu's words, the Seven Quanzhen Masters were all amazed. After all, none of them, except Qiu Qiu Chuji, had reached the late Xiantian realm, and Qiu Qiu Chuji, the strongest, had been defeated in one move, so one could imagine the gap.

Looking at Gu Gu Hanyuan's age, he was considered young even among the third-generation disciples, while the Quanzhen Sect only had a bunch of crooked melons and cracked dates that couldn't be shown.

Zhao Zhao Zhijing looked at Gu Gu Hanyuan with jealousy; he was in his thirties and had only just stepped into the early Xiantian realm, and even though he was the strongest among the third-generation disciples, he had only reached it by waiting for his age.

Li Mochou had just fought Qiu Qiu Chuji and knew his strength best; if it weren't for him being wary of her Ice Soul Silver Needles, she would have been captured long ago.

Little Dragon Maiden had known his martial arts wouldn't be bad when he saved Li Mochou, but she didn't expect him to be this strong.

Of course, Gu Gu Hanyuan’s way of holding her waist and being gentle and concerned when saving Li Mochou also made her look twice.

Yang Guo was only excited at this moment.

He had been bullied quite a bit when Guo Jing sent him to the Quanzhen Sect, and now seeing Gu Gu Hanyuan hanging and beating Qiu Qiu Chuji, he felt he had vented his anger.

"The Quanzhen Sect's martial arts are nothing more than this. Release that girl over there; don't force me to strike those disciples."

Gu Gu Hanyuan would not be biased, and with the prestige of defeating Qiu Qiu Chuji, he took the opportunity to demand that the Quanzhen Sect release Hong Hong Lingbo.

Hong Hong Lingbo didn't expect the handsome youth who was the focus of the field to notice her, a small transparent person, and felt a little moved.

In fact, Hong Hong Lingbo was quite pretty, but she was always following Li Mochou, and others were either attracted by Li Mochou's beauty or scared by her cruelty, so who would notice her appearance?

The Quanzhen disciples who were holding Hong Hong Lingbo with longswords looked at each other for a moment, then sensibly put away their swords and let her go.

Hong Hong Lingbo returned to Li Mochou's side and respectfully called out "Master."

But her gaze never left Gu Gu Hanyuan.

Li Mochou glanced at Hong Hong Lingbo and didn't say anything, but she felt unhappy that her disciple had stolen the spotlight.

Just as she was thinking this, she heard Gu Gu Hanyuan say loudly in the field:

"Just now, I saw the Quanzhen Sect members besieging this girl, shaking the Jianghu. I have to seek justice for her. Please, seniors of the Quanzhen Sect, come down and let me experience the fun of being besieged." ===== CHAPTER 105 =====
