169: It was almost a big mistake! Zhao Qingrou appears

"So it's Elder Lin!"

Xu Cheng nodded politely, a faint smile on his Face.

"Elder Lin, why have you stopped us? Surely you're not planning to oppose the Sect Head Immortal Master, are you?"

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng made a joke.

Lin Fan shook his head.

"Of course not!"

Doubt showed in his eyes. "However, what mistake did the Third Elder make that warrants the Sixth Elder going to such great lengths? I'm still very curious!"

Although Lin Fan was an Elder of the Sect, he held a somewhat special position within the Sect. That's why when Yang Yucheng returned to the Sect earlier,

So many Elders went to pay their respects, but he didn't.

And no one found it inappropriate!

Who told him to be a strong individual?

It's only natural for a strong individual to have privileges!

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng explained.

"Such a thing happened?"

Lin Fan frowned almost imperceptibly.

He, in his life, truly had no good Face for traitors.

Especially his teacher.

It seemed that a million years ago, the reason he fell into his current predicament was also due to a traitor causing trouble.

With both factors combined,

Lin Fan had many bad impressions of traitors.

Gradually!

Lin Fan looked at Third Elder Wang Chongming and decided not to meddle in this matter further.

Lin Fan stepped forward, also clearing the Dao he had just blocked.

Seeing Lin Fan appear, Wang Chongming's eyes burst with intense, incomparable joy.

He spoke repeatedly.

"Elder Lin, have you forgotten that when you were in the Sect, the grand competition for outer disciples to enter inner disciples was overseen by this Elder?"

"In the past, for Elder Lin to enter the inner Sect, this Elder also contributed."

"Today, I only ask Elder Lin to give me justice, to give me a fair and impartial opportunity!"

Then!

Before Lin Fan could react, Wang Chongming recounted the events that had just transpired in the Sect's main hall, doing so with immense grief and sorrow.

If Sixth Elder Xu Cheng had recounted the outcome,

Then...

He recounted the process that had just occurred, without any bias towards himself.

This was precisely his cleverness.

If he lied,

When Lin Fan entered the hall to inquire, he would naturally learn the truth, which would more easily put him in an unfavorable situation!

"Elder Lin, you have always valued loyalty and righteousness."

"Must you truly watch me die here, so unjustly? Please see clearly!"

Third Elder Wang Chongming spoke loudly again.

"Understood!"

Lin Fan nodded almost imperceptibly.

Then...

He entered the main hall of the Sect before him.

And with his words,

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng, including the Divine Phoenix Guard beside him, did not leave immediately.

Instead, they temporarily remained in place!

"Sixth Elder, what should we do?"

The Divine Phoenix Guard asked.

Xu Cheng's brows showed some struggle.

Just as he was about to make a decision and give Lin Fan some Face,

Suddenly, a charming voice echoed in his mind; it was Li Huanhuan's sound transmission.

"Sixth Elder, are you perhaps getting senile?"

"Right now, the Sect Head Immortal Master of this Fengyun Sect is still the Young Master! As long as the Young Master has not left, this Sect will remain the Young Master's! Even if the Sixth Elder is well-meaning."

"Wanting to ease the conflict between the Young Master and Lin Fan, but it shouldn't go so far as to make decisions on your own."

"Have you forgotten the Young Master's instructions just now, in the time it took to return?"

Hearing this, Sixth Elder Xu Cheng's heart suddenly clenched.

He recovered and transmitted a message back.

"Thank you, Miss Huanhuan!"

"For this matter, consider this Elder owing you a favor."

Having made his decision!

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng narrowed his eyes and spoke coldly to the two Divine Phoenix Guard members beside him.

He looked at Third Elder Wang Chongming before him without mercy and said directly,

"Take him away!"

With these two words,

The three of them began to act! Without any further hesitation.

Yang Yucheng was still in Fengyun Sect.

If he, Xu Cheng, were to do such a thing as feigning compliance while secretly disobeying, it would truly be inappropriate, and also too foolish!

Rising into the air!

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng's back was clearly covered in a layer of cold sweat.

Merit is merit, fault is fault.

If he made a mistake, Yang Yucheng's methods of punishment, which could punish others, could naturally also punish him, an unobservant insider.

Merit should be rewarded; fault should be punished!

"Fortunately, it didn't come to that!"

Sixth Elder Xu Cheng thought to himself... Main hall of the Sect!

Although the matter of Third Elder Wang Chongming had not completely concluded, it was largely settled within the main hall!

Then...

Everyone began to discuss other major affairs of the Sect.

Yang Yucheng and the various Elders handled them one by one, progressing rapidly.

Currently...

Fengyun Sect's reputation was soaring, its strength extraordinary, so the advantage of holding the initiative was always on their side. Doing anything became more effective than in the past.

Especially during the period Yang Yucheng was present, his deterrent force was full, very thoughtful, and very reliable.

It was clearly a harmonious situation!

A gentle voice suddenly rang out, shattering this harmony!

Lin Fan finally arrived!

"The matter of the Third Elder..."

"Senior Brother Yang, to end it so hastily, to conclude it so perfunctorily, isn't that a bit inappropriate?"

As soon as Lin Fan appeared, he began to inquire about this matter.

No one really cared.

His so-called address to Yang Yucheng was a minor detail, not that important.

"Junior Brother Lin, are you planning to oppose me because of this?"

Yang Yucheng found it somewhat amusing.

Lin Fan shouldn't be such an ignorant person.

Suddenly, Yang Yucheng understood.

"It seems this Third Elder bestowed some favor upon Junior Brother Lin some time ago, so it's understandable that Junior Brother Lin would stand up for him when such a thing happened today!"

Yang Yucheng's attitude towards Lin Fan was completely different from his previous attitude towards Third Elder Wang Chongming.

The latter...

Cold as ice, decisive, and merciless in his decisions.

But towards the former, he became much more understanding.

"Junior Brother Lin, you can go to the Ninth Hall yourself! Take a look at the Ninth Hall's punishments; besides the physical pain, there's also the method of questioning the heart!"

"Junior Brother Lin, if you want to repay his kindness, then let the Third Elder suffer less and let him go to that Pure Land as soon as possible."

"That will be enough!"

Yang Yucheng gave Lin Fan some Face!

Lin Fan looked troubled.

"Senior Brother Yang, is this matter already settled?"

Lin Fan hesitated a little, but his tone was not as firm as others might have thought.

After all...

The kindness Third Elder Wang Chongming showed him was only a little.

With him, it would have been icing on the cake; without him,

He, Lin Fan, would have been able to enter the inner Sect that day anyway!

His teacher alone was completely sufficient; it was merely a matter of time, so it wasn't worth truly fighting Yang Yucheng over such a small favor.

It wasn't even worth becoming enemies with each other at all!
