Chapter 792: Obedient Disciple Comes Into the Embrace 26

As the mist spread, Jin Chen's body twitched, he walked to the edge of the hot spring pool, as if he would jump in at any moment.

His gaze also fluctuated, as if trapped by an illusion.

But he only reached out his hand to Fei Mian, "Come up."

Fei Mian chuckled lightly twice, did not refuse, and leisurely emerged from the water, the sheer gauze clinging to his body.

He approached Jin Chen, his boneless soft fingers about to climb onto his shoulder.

In an instant, a cold light shone fiercely.

"Ugh!"

Fei Mian trembled all over, unable to believe, lowered his head, gazing at the wound on his chest.

An ice cone pierced in, without the slightest hesitation, without any Soft-hearted.

Jin Chen flung him away, in his hand was the jade pendant Fei Mian had just been wearing around his neck.

It was also a pass prepared by the divine artifact in this illusion.

"Why......"

Fei Mian fell to the ground, clutching his chest, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, his phoenix eyes brimming with tears that hit the floor.

His voice grew more mournful, full of sorrow.

"Why are you hurting me, Master......"

"Shut up."

Jin Chen looked at him coldly, completely lacking Soft-hearted because of this identical skin.

"You are not him."

"I am! I am him! Why can he have your favor while I have nothing!"

"Senior Elder of the Spirit Order! Since you have appeared, why didn't you appear earlier......"

Hearing this, Jin Chen frowned slightly.

Although it is an illusion, a bewildering formation of the divine artifact, it is nevertheless too powerful.

It could even imitate Fei Mian's tone from the original plot.

Unfortunately, it had no effect on him.

"I came for him," Jin Chen said, "and it has nothing to do with who arrived first."

As his words fell, the illusion vanished.

Jin Chen looked around; the mist grew thicker, Fei Mian's eyes tightly shut, brows furrowed, obviously still trapped in the illusion.

The illusion needs to be dispelled by oneself, distinguishing illusion from reality, only then can one successfully exit.

"Fei Mian! You're bothering people here again!"

Fei Mian climbed up from the ground, lifting his eyes to see Zhang Guang's disgusted expression; around him were many fellow disciples, all looking at him as if wanting to avoid him.

He was stung in the eyes by the sunlight, instinctively reaching to rub them, but upon seeing his hands he froze.

His hands were almost covered in wounds.

"What are you spacing out for! This place is not where an outer sect disciple like you can come!"

Zhang Guang saw him speaking to him, yet he still dared to act foolish, making him even angrier.

But having promised Senior Brother Luo, Fei Mian had repeatedly bullied Xie Xi, surely to give him a lesson!

Zhang Guang kicked over, Fei Mian's eyes flickered, he hastily dodged and instinctively counterattacked.

"Ouch!"

Zhang Guang fell to the ground, clutching his arm, unable to get up for a while.

He seemingly hadn't expected Fei Mian to dare strike back, growing more furious, he ordered his younger brother to go teach him a lesson.

"Fei Mian! You're done! You actually dared to hit a senior brother, I will have the Immortal Master expel you from the Disciples' Court!"

This threat is usually effective.

But Fei Mian only frowned, puzzled, glancing at the surrounding fellow disciples who watched coldly.

He always felt…… this shouldn't be like this.

But what exactly was wrong, even he himself didn't know.

Suddenly, all the disciples seemed to have seen something, simultaneously bowing in salute.

Fei Mian turned in confusion, looked up.

It was the Chief Immortal Master of the Disciples' Court.

Fei Mian recognized him, yet still stood, not performing the salute.

The Immortal Master was very stern, even faintly angry.

"Why did you strike a fellow sect brother, why do you not salute when you see me?"

"He struck me first."

Fei Mian immediately retorted, without a hint of hesitation.

"Presumptuous! You used the mutant dark spiritual root power to recklessly attack fellow disciples, I watched it happen!"

The Immortal Master was very dissatisfied with his attitude, coldly flicked his sleeve.

"With such an attitude, do you want to be expelled from the Xuanzong Sect!"

"I......"

Fei Mian suddenly froze.

He instinctively felt that if he were expelled, he might never see...... again.

See whom he couldn't see.

But he was in the Xuanzong Sect, originally having no attachments.

Everyone dislikes him, and everyone can come over and kick him.

Probably it's best to have no lingering attachment.

No… that's wrong.

Fei Mian suddenly lowered his head, then looked at his own hands.

The technique he just used to attack Zhang Guang, he had never cultivated before.

Who taught him that?

Master…

Thinking of that title, only the Sect Leader's face came to his mind.

Wrong, nothing is right.

His master is not the Sect Leader.

The Sect Leader has never taught him any techniques or abilities.

A flash of struggle appeared in his eyes.

When he regained his senses, two senior disciples were holding him, preparing to report to the Sect Head and expel him from the Xuanzong Sect.

The sun remained scorching and blinding, yet it gave no warmth when it shone on him.

Fei Mian only felt dizzy, and the world seemed to become unclear.

His eyelids drooped slowly, as heavy as a thousand jin.

"Disobedient disciple Fei Mian! Beating fellow disciples, defying the immortal master—your sins are unforgivable! Effective immediately, you are expelled from the Xuanzong Sect!"

The Sect Leader's voice came from beside his ear.

Fei Mian forced his eyes open, gazing at everyone inside the Golden Void Hall.

No one could protect him; he could never escape the fate of being driven out.

Even if he endured in silence, it would be useless.

Once such a thought arose, it began to spread.

He grew weaker all over, collapsing into a seated position on the ground.

His wrist pressed against the ground, the wound was pressed and blood seeped out.

"It hurts……"

Fei Mian blurted out a sentence instinctively, and then the next second he spoke it aloud.

"Master… it hurts……"

After saying that, his whole body shuddered.

The blurry face in his mind instantly became clear.

He could not be expelled; he still needed to see his master.

He had to go to Misty Cloud Peak!

His confused, exhausted emotions vanished instantly, strength returned to his limbs, and Fei Mian shoved away the two disciples holding him, then bolted out the door running.

Hearing the Sect Leader's angry roar behind him, he also had no intention of stopping.

Fei Mian did not remember how far it was from the Golden Void Hall to Misty Cloud Peak.

But having that thought, as he ran he soon saw the bamboo grove of the Yunquan Institute.

Just as it was in his memory.

Master still leaned against the flowering crabapple tree that blooms year-round, his long white hair hanging down, smoother than the finest silk.

It seemed he heard the sound; Ling Xu lifted his head, his silver eyes gazing at the arrival.

Then his brows furrowed slightly, and he spoke coldly.

"Who dares intrude upon the Yunquan Institute?"

The bone-chilling, low voice made Fei Mian's steps falter.

"Master……"

He let out a helpless cry, fixing his gaze on those silver eyes, his heart growing even more Dazed.

He should not be looking at him like that.

Master had never looked at him that way before.

Hearing this unfamiliar disciple call out, Ling Xu's aura grew even colder: "Impudent."

"I have never taken a disciple."

That brief sentence struck him like a heavy hammer, shattering his last hope into pieces.

Unable to bear it, he retreated two steps, his lips trembling, not knowing how to respond, and Tears fell instantly.

"I… I am Mianbao, Master, don't you want me anymore?"
