rowed slightly.Although she also wanted to save Wanlu, she hoped more that they could do it with their own strength. If Xue Canghai succeeded, it wouldn't be good for Xuan Yuan Ge at all.Ye Bufan knew..."This..."

Bailingshu was a little surprised. In the past, the Great Elder always left her some face, after all, they were both great Luo Xian of the sect.

But this time was different, directly calling it out face-to-face. I was caught off guard and didn't know what to say.

Zu Fangkui said: "Elder, the rest is easy to handle, but the methods of the Ninth Peak are too despicable. They even poisoned my disciples."

Bai Lingpu followed up and said, "That's right, we never took those little squabbles among the disciples seriously before."

"This poisoning incident is simply too big, resulting in the complete loss of cultivation for so many core disciples. The sect should step in and handle it."

"You took advantage before, it was just small skirmishes. Now that you've suffered losses, the sect should intervene. What kind of logic is this"

Hu Bingyu said bluntly, "Poisoning is nothing major. After all, if you can poison, you can also antidote. It's not like you completely crippled a disciple of our Liuguang Jianzong."

"As for the disputes among you, if you can stir up trouble, you should also be able to settle it. Solve it yourselves and step aside!"

"This...is it!"

As the Grand Elder, his rank was above both Bai Lingpu and Zu Fangkui, and they were both effectively suppressed. They didn't dare to say anything more and could only retreat from the hall.

"As for me, the Grand Elder is simply favoring the Ninth Peak and that kid named Ye!" said Zu Fangkui indignantly at the foot of Lingyun Peak.

Bai Lingpu, on the other hand, seemed much more composed. She shook her head and said, "It's pointless to talk about this too much."

Zu Fangkui said, "If the Great Elder refuses to come forward and mediate, what are we going to do"

Bailingshu said: "What else can we do We can only bow our heads to the Ninth Peak."

Zu Fangkui shook his head: "This won't do, I can't lose face!"

"A true man can bend but not break, so why worry about momentary gains and losses"

Bailin Pu said, "If you can't let go of face, younger brother, just follow me. I'll take care of the rest."

"Oh well!"

Zu FangKui sighed, there was indeed no way now. If he were merely blocked by the Ninth Peak, he could still bear it. At worst, he would let his disciples temporarily refrain from going out and cultivate in seclusion.

More than half of the core disciples have been poisoned. This situation can't drag on forever.

"In a short while it will be the Grand Competition of disciples personally chosen by the Sect Master, we mustn't lose sight of the bigger picture because of small matters."

Bailingshu also held the same idea, otherwise he wouldn't choose to lower his head proactively.

In the main hall of the Ninth Peak, Ye Bufan and Ji Shu leaned towards each other.

"Xiaofan, you've done a great service to our Ninth Peak this time!"

As the deputy master of the Lingyao Hall now, this old man can't conveniently accept you as an inner disciple.

This is it, from now on you'll be the senior brother of the Ninth Peak. You can do whatever you want, and you can decide who to assign to what tasks. Both outer sect and inner sect disciples will also listen to your commands!

Ji Shu's face was now filled with a relaxed smile, a far cry from the gloom he had worn just days before.

Upon hearing the news that Ninth Peak had been completely reversed, he was ecstatic and immediately invited Ye Bufan over.

No wonder he was so happy, for so many years the Ninth Peak had been completely overshadowed by the Fifth Peak, and now a third peak has been added.

I originally thought I could only swallow my anger, but I didn't expect Ye Bufan to not only solve the problem, but also a big reversal, completely stepping on Bai Lingpu and Zu FangKui's faces.

"Master Peak Lord, you're too kind. I'm also a member of the Ninth Peak, and it's only right that I do my part."

If someone else were to receive such extraordinary treatment, they would surely be ecstatic. However, Ye Bufan remained remarkably composed.

His goal was to be a direct disciple of the Peak Master, so he naturally wouldn't take a senior brother from the ninth peak too seriously.

As two people were talking, a small errand boy ran in from outside.

"Master Peak Lord, Bai Lingpu and Zu Fangkui request an audience."

Ji Shu's expression changed slightly, and he immediately guessed the other party's intentions. Then, a sneer curled up at the corner of his mouth.

"It's really the wheel of fortune turning. It's their turn to come in."

"Junior brother Ji, I apologize for the intrusion, hahaha..."

Moments later, Bai Lingpu's laughter echoed from outside the room. He entered with a broad smile, as if visiting an old friend, showing no awkwardness whatsoever.

Then, seeing Ye Bufan, a flash of ferocity crossed his eyes, followed by a smile.

“As it turns out, Lord Ye is here as well. Please accept my greetings.”

As they spoke, he bowed again. Zu Fangkui followed behind him, showing no reaction and with no expression on his face.

Ye Bufan secretly thought in his heart, this Bai Lingpu was indeed an old fox. He first raised his own status high, so that when he bowed his head later, it wouldn't be embarrassing.

He didn't speak, he just smiled and sat there watching the old man's performance.

Bailingshu plastered a smile on her face: "This is the situation, Ji-shidi. Could you please have your disciples from the Ninth Peak return first After all, we're all fellow cultivators of the same sect. Let's discuss this properly."

Uncle Ji's face was stern: "Master Bai, what do you mean Are the disciples of the Ninth Peak not allowed to leave the mountain"

"Enough with the act. You disciples of the Ninth Peak have bullied our Third and Fifth Peaks into this state. Surely you're aware of it"

Zu FangKui's face was full of indignation, but Ye Bufan shook his head secretly in his heart.

It seems that the head of the third peak is much more easily flustered than the one from the fifth peak. They simply can't keep their cool.

Uncle Ji nonchalantly feigned ignorance, "Is that so I have no idea about this."

"Normally, that wouldn't be possible. You two peaks have been ganging up on my Ninth Peak's disciples and bullying them this whole time. When was the last time you were ever bullied by us"

Ye Bufan smiled and said, "Indeed, do you two know which disciple from our Ninth Peak did this Tell us, when we get back, we'll have to reward them well."

"You..."

Two people sang back and forth. Zu Fangkui was so angry that his eyes were blazing, "Ji Shuxian, you are condoning your disciples' acts of violence!"

"Well then"

"Ji Shu said leisurely, 'Zu Fangkui, not long ago I went to the Third Peak, what did you say then' "

The disciples were ambushed, there's nothing to say but they are incompetent.

If you suspect it was one of my disciples, then come and beat them back!

"If one day my disciples are attacked, I would be too ashamed to ask for help from others."

"Me!"

Zu Fangkui was flushed with embarrassment, because these words were just what he had said to Ji Shuian not long ago, and now they were being thrown back in his face.

He was reckless then, never imagining for a moment that he would one day face the consequences.

Bailin reached out and pulled him back. "Ji shidi, as we said before, I came here to apologize to you."iolent Bear.But the sheer number was overwhelming. Dozens of them came at once, and even though he was a powerful being in his merged state, he couldn't help but feel a shiver run down his spine upon...
