326: Chapter 326 Someone is creating conflict, the contradictions point directly to the Joyful Union Sect

A younger female Disciple of the Hehuan Sect couldn't help but look up, her face flushed as she retorted, "Our Sect Master isn't like what you say! He... he must have his reasons!"

"Reasons?" Mo Ran stepped closer, looking down at her with a face full of mockery. "What reasons? Is the reason to blow himself up?"

Little girl, your Sect Master is just a useless sack of straw, and you're still speaking up for him? In my eyes, your Hehuan Sect, from top to bottom, is just a bunch of cowards!"

"You—!"

The female Disciple trembled with rage, but she was held back firmly by the Senior Sister beside her.

"Don't be impulsive," the Senior Sister whispered. "We can't beat them."

The Taihu Clan Disciples laughed even harder, swaggering past them while not forgetting to turn back and hurl a few more insults.

"A coward of a Sect Master leads a bunch of coward Disciples!"

"Hurry back and tell your Sect Master not to come to the Fire Cloud Cave and embarrass himself anymore! Go find some deserted place and blow himself up for fun!"

The laughter gradually faded into the distance.

Several female Disciples of the Hehuan Sect stood where they were, tears welling up in their eyes, but they could only bite their lips hard to keep them from falling.

Qixia Valley, Martial Arts Arena.

Several male Disciples of the Hehuan Sect were sparring.

Ever since Zhao Yan was "beaten into submission" by Xu Ruyu, his Cultivate had become even more diligent, and the Junior Brothers who followed him also practiced with greater enthusiasm.

Suddenly, a sarcastic voice came from the edge of the Martial Arts Arena.

"Yo, quite hard-working, aren't we? What's the use of practicing so hard? Your Sect Master has blown himself up like that, and you're still practicing here?"

Several Taihu Clan Disciples had appeared at the edge of the field at some point. Leading them was a burly man with a face full of rough flesh named "Tie Ning." He was a strongman responsible for carrying heavy objects in the Fire Cloud Cave. Although his cultivation was only at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment, he was born with Divine Power and was quite famous among the young Disciples.

One of Zhao Yan's Junior Brothers, named "Xiao Hu," had a rather impetuous temperament. Hearing this, he flared up and rushed forward, shouting angrily, "What did you say?! Say that again if you dare!"

"I said your Sect Master is a coward, so what?" Tie Ning looked down at him with utter disdain. "Not convinced? If you're not convinced, come and hit me."

With Xiao Hu's explosive temper, how could he endure it? He immediately let out a roar and threw a punch at the other party!

But how could he be a match for Tie Ning? Tie Ning simply brushed him aside, sending him staggering back, and then kicked him in the stomach, sending him flying and crashing heavily onto the ground!

"Xiao Hu!"

Several Hehuan Sect Disciples hurriedly rushed over to help him up.

Xiao Hu clutched his stomach, his face full of pain, with a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.

Tie Ning laughed loudly. "This is it? And you're from the Hehuan Sect? You can't even take one of my moves. Your Sect Master is even more of a waste! A Grandmaster of Backfiring! Hahahaha!"

The Taihu Clan Disciples behind him also laughed along, their laughter incredibly piercing.

Another of Zhao Yan's Junior Brothers, named "A Mu," was more composed. He firmly held back his fellow brothers who wanted to rush forward and whispered, "Don't be impulsive! We can't beat them! Let's go back and find Senior Sister Leng and the others!"

Hearing this, Tie Ning laughed even louder. "Find your Senior Sister? Hahahaha! Those Senior Sisters and Senior Brothers of yours have been in seclusion since yesterday, not daring to make a peep!"

"I think they know your Sect Master is an embarrassment and are too ashamed to show their faces!"

"Bullshit!"

Several Hehuan Sect Disciples could no longer hold back and charged forward together!

But the result was a foregone conclusion.

Tie Ning alone easily knocked down the four of them.

He struck with extreme force, every punch hitting home, beating several of them black and blue until they lay on the ground, groaning incessantly.

"Remember," Tie Ning clapped his hands and looked down at them. "Your Hehuan Sect is just a bunch of cowards."

"And your Sect Master is the biggest coward of them all."

"In the future, when you see us members of the Taihu Clan, take a detour, got it?"

After saying that, he led his followers and swaggered away.

Left behind were only the Hehuan Sect Disciples on the ground, covered in injuries and their faces filled with humiliation.

Similar incidents continued to happen over the next few days.

The Hehuan Sect Disciples were faced with various difficulties and bullied by the Taihu Clan's youngsters.

When passing through public areas, they were mocked, jeered at, and pointed at.

There were even female Disciples who, when going out alone, were surrounded by several Taihu Clan hooligans who harassed them verbally, saying unspeakable things.

Every time, if a Hehuan Sect Disciple resisted even slightly, they would be severely punished under the guise of "sparring."

The Taihu Clan's youngsters generally had higher cultivation than the Hehuan Sect Disciples, and with the home-field advantage, they showed no mercy.

Meanwhile, the Elders of the Taihu Clan turned a blind eye to this, and some even showed favoritism toward their own Disciples.

"It's normal for young people to get a few injuries during sparring."

"Your Sect Master brought shame upon himself; you can't blame others for talking."

"Keep a better eye on your Disciples in the future; don't let them resort to violence so easily."

These words were like knives, stabbing deeply into the hearts of the Hehuan Sect Disciples.

Humiliation, anger, and resentment burned in their chests like balls of fire.

But what could they do?

They couldn't win a fight.

They couldn't win an appeal.

They couldn't bear to endure it.

They could only go and find Leng Ningshuang and the others.
