Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 148 Sect Competition 16
"This is that..." Lian Goujie narrowed his eyes and looked at the hurried middle-aged man.

"It's him," Qin Feng gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't he in solitary confinement? How come he's here?"

"Solitary confinement?"

"It can be considered a punishment," Qin Feng sneered. "Maybe he's worried that I'd chop him down in the middle of the night, so locking him up is a way of protecting him."

Although Qin Feng was unable to practice while in Huaixin Sect, she was still capable of fighting with a sword and should not be underestimated.

Lian Gouyu followed Wei Qin and the others and asked in confusion, "Is he so weak? Didn't you say he was an elder?"

"It's easy to dodge an open attack, but it's hard to guard against a hidden arrow. Besides, the Huaixin Sect has so many elders. He got this position through connections. He's almost sixty years old, and he hasn't even formed a pill yet."

"This guy is so disgusting," Lian Gouyue complained, "It's ok that he doesn't have any skills, but he even harassed the little girl. You're being merciful by chopping off his fingers."

Wei Xi said softly, "Qin Feng is very talented and has a fierce temper. I'm afraid a coward who bullies the weak wouldn't dare to attack you right away. I'm afraid there will be many victims."

"But seeing as he's alive and well now, I'm afraid only Qin Feng has resisted."

"I really don't know," Qin Feng frowned and said, "I was so worried at that time that I didn't pay attention to it."

"However, Yin Feng usually takes care of the daily life of the lower-level disciples."

Thinking of the Huaixin Sect's predatory environment, Qin Feng began to speculate, "...There are always people who lack food and clothing. It's not impossible that they were coerced by him..."

The three followed Yin Feng and found that he had returned to the Huaixin Sect's courtyard and had no evidence against him.

Wei Xi originally had the idea of helping Qin Feng to take revenge. When he met him at the sect competition, he felt satisfied only when he skinned this guy alive in public.

But thinking that Qin Feng was involved, he couldn't help but be cautious.

Now that they knew there might be other victims, they became even more hesitant to act rashly.

Although Wei Xi is a cold person and the affairs of strangers have nothing to do with her, she feels sympathy for her fellow man. As a girl, it is rare for her to be filled with righteous indignation.

But Wei Xi is not a reckless man. He needs to plan carefully for such things and not let those who have already suffered losses get hurt again.

With the intention of dealing with Yin Feng, Wei Xi did not hide it and expressed his thoughts.

Qin Feng naturally had no objection. Her face was calm. "I have nothing to be ashamed of in this matter. Right and wrong are never spoken of by others. I know the consequences well, so don't worry about me."

Although Lian Gouyu was not a good person, he was not a bad person either. He shook his head and said, "Although what you said is from your heart, there is no need to hurt yourself for such a thing."

"We should still follow Wei Xi's advice. Besides, it's very likely that he has attacked other people before," Lian Gouyue touched his flying needle, "but time is tight, so it's not easy to operate."

"Why don't I just go get some medicine from Senior Brother Wei An and give this beastly bastard a few injections. Once he loses his ability, we can slowly take care of him."

"What's the point of this?" Qin Feng said with a look of resentment. "I feel sick just thinking about it, let alone the fact that he succeeded."

Lian Gou's face was mysterious, "Don't worry, if it really works, he'll be deeply traumatized. Besides, won't this also stop him from doing it again?"

Wei and Qin were both very upset.

"You can do the acupuncture," Wei Xi said, even though he didn't understand Lian Gou's logic, he still believed in his ability. "Just not now."

"It's not good to alert the enemy and make him alert." Wei Xi pursed his lips, his fingers almost rubbing sparks, "We have to find other witnesses."

"I've only seen these blue-robed men once in Baoxiang City," Lian Gouqie put away his needle, "and I don't think they're the kind of people who are willing to help others."

"I know a few people in Huaixin Sect," Qin Feng said, "but our relationships are just so-so, so I'm not sure I can find out anything."

Wei Xi frowned slightly and stopped rubbing his fingers. "Ge Cang, she is from the same class as us. She should come to participate in the sect competition."

Moreover, Wei Xi recalled Ge Cang's cowardly look. She had been bullied by her fellow disciples for more than a day or two. Perhaps she could get some information from her.

It was impossible to wait for something to happen, so the three of them returned to the Qingcheng Sect's courtyard. After closing the door, the past gradually emerged in Qin Feng's narration.

To sum it up, once Qin Feng fell into trouble and his salary dropped, Yin Feng took advantage of the situation, broke into his room in the middle of the night, and used threats and inducements to coerce him.

Qin Feng didn't even blink, he drew his sword and cut off his fingers, and the next day he brought the other party's "lost property" to report.

"This... means I'm locked up?"

"Yin Feng's second aunt is the second wife of Mr. Yu," Qin Feng said after taking a sip of tea. "Mr. Yu is a legitimate elder of the Huaixin Sect."

"I was wondering why you were so anxious to send me away. Turns out you were planning on letting this go."

At this point, Wei Xi thought of Qin Feng stomping his feet on the steps of Huaixin Sect.

No wonder she was so bad-tempered and vicious at that time.

"That Ge Cang, is he the cultivator who entered the room with you?"

"Yes," Wei Xi replied after coming to his senses.

Lian Gouqie showed a skeptical look on his face. "That girl is inexperienced. Even if she knows something, can she tell others?"

"You'll know after trying it," Qin Feng said, holding Gao Han's sword handle. "In the second round of the points competition, you can choose your teammates."

"If we team up with Ge Cang, wouldn't we be able to get to know her better?"

There are two things to grasp about this idea.

The first thing was how to ensure that he could team up with Ge Cang. If he teamed up with his senior brothers and sisters, Wei Xi and the other two would probably have no say in the matter; even if he teamed up with different senior brothers and sisters, whether Ge Cang was willing and whether the Huaixin Sect would agree was still a problem.

The second is to maintain the first place and strive for the third place to enter the next round.

Wei Xi counted on his fingers: three people plus Ge Cang, this configuration cannot be a strong cultivator no matter what else is chosen.

If Qin Feng can't hold on to the end of the points race, he won't be able to enter the third round.

The three of them scratched their heads and thought for half the afternoon, and finally chose the latter between working for Li Chun and avenging Qin Feng.

"I still think it's more appropriate to put some medicine on the needle and prick him." Lian Gou's head was about to explode. He took out his tools for drawing talismans and began to prepare for the points race.

"Private revenge is revenge," Wei Xi pointed out the direction of action, "those who should be punished must also be punished. This will complement each other and bring benefits to each other."

The results of about a hundred people's papers came out the next day, and a red list was posted on the cafeteria door.

Wei Xi's name was ranked sixteenth, and about ten people behind him was Lian Gou Xie's name.

The two passed the first round, and Wei Xi continued to search for the target person's name.

The further Wei Xi went down the list, the more shocked he became. Even after looking at the ten or so people at the bottom of the list who hadn't passed the written test, Ge Cang's name was not on the list.

Wei Xi looked up hoping for a lucky break, but still couldn't find Ge Cang's name.

Could it be that she was bullied to the point that she didn't even have the chance to participate in the sect competition as a new disciple?

Qin Feng tugged at Wei Xi's sleeve and pointed to a much longer board next to it.

That was the publicly announced list of people exempted from the written test. Unlike the red list, it indicated the disciples' sects and cultivation levels.

Because of their sect, Ge Cang's name even ranked before Qin Feng.

The three words "Foundation Building" were written in small letters in the lower right corner of Ge Cang's name.
