Chapter 35 Master Ming Yan appears
Xiao Chen almost wanted to laugh. He never expected that the sect's chief elder could make such a foolish decision.

He just sees himself as an ordinary disciple with no background, yet he still has the nerve to pretend to be righteous. He is so shameless.

However, the other party's words of "preferring to cause accidental injury" still made him feel particularly deeply the cruel side of the world of immortal cultivation.

Most of the time, a thought from a big shot can determine the fate of those below him.

But Xiao Chen was still very calm at this time, because he could fully prove that his breakthrough in cultivation was well-founded.

Recently, he happened to obtain several spiritual objects that were helpful for cultivation, including purple peach blossoms, green wood spiritual liquid, bone-sharpening spring, and Qi-gathering pills.

Each of these things can be used as one of the reasons for his rapid breakthrough.

Including the "Qi-Nourishing Breathing Method" he chose at the beginning, the only effect of this method is to reduce the difficulty of breakthrough and help disciples with ordinary qualifications to break through better.

Although Xiao Chen actually enjoyed a tenfold increase in his martial arts skills, this kind of thing cannot be truly quantified.

Who can prove that he didn’t have a higher level of understanding and achieved better results?
As he finished introducing these five different reasons one by one, the elders present also started to discuss them.

"Indeed, the main purpose of our sect's 'Qi-Nourishing Breathing Method' is to reduce the obstacles to breakthroughs for disciples with weak spiritual roots."

"Purple peach blossoms can help cultivators strengthen their foundation, thereby speeding up their cultivation."

"I remember from the records that Xiao Chen has a low-grade wood spirit root. Refining the Green Wood Spiritual Liquid can help him improve his cultivation efficiency."

"The Su family kid is actually willing to give the Liguquan Spring as a gift to others. What a good vision and generous!"

"After returning from the trial, I took two bottles of Qi Gathering Pills. That's equivalent to five months of training at the sixth level of Qi Refining. This time is much more reasonable."

This last point immediately sparked discussion among everyone.

The ancestor with the fire-type spiritual root took ten months, but he did not use any elixirs or spiritual objects from beginning to end.

Although Xiao Chen took seven months, he actually borrowed many spiritual objects. When converted, it was still not as fast as cultivating with natural spiritual roots.

In this way, everyone suddenly felt that it was acceptable.

Only Jiang Shiyou still persisted in his objection: "Not enough! If it were any other disciple, even if they had dual spiritual roots, they would definitely not be able to do it so quickly using these spiritual objects!"

In fact, he was right. With only these spiritual objects, it would definitely not be so fast without Hextech.

But as the situation has developed to this point, it sounds to others like Elder Jiang is just being stubborn.

Elder Qi from Bishui Peak couldn't help but chime in, "Senior Brother Jiang, Xiao Chen has already given several valid reasons. Why make it difficult for him?"

As soon as she opened her mouth, her clear voice and outstanding appearance attracted the attention of the entire audience.

Several other neutral elders who had remained silent did not want to speak, but when they saw Elder Qi express his stance, they also spoke up to express their support.

They all said that since there was help from spiritual objects, such a result was understandable and there was no need to dwell on it.

Jiang Shiyou, however, remained firm: "Don't be fooled by this boy's sweet talk. Although it's a bit difficult to put these things together, they can be repeated."

"For the safety of the sect, lock up Xiao Chen first, and then test the other disciples using the same method. It won't be too late to make a decision after the tests are completed in seven months."

Elder Chen directly retorted: "That's pure nonsense! You're detaining my disciple for seven months without any evidence. Why don't you detain him for seven years, but seventy?"

"Does the sect still have sect rules? Or is it you, Jiang Shiyou, who has the final say in the Law Enforcement Hall?"

Elder Qi also questioned: "Every disciple's cultivation situation is different. It is related to each person's talent, understanding, and mentality."

"If only one disciple takes the test, the results will inevitably be inaccurate. If many disciples take the test, who will be responsible for these resources?"

Another elder immediately chimed in, "The test is simple, but who will provide the resources? And who will participate in the test? Are we going to let the sect expend resources to help the Jiang family disciples break through?"

Jiang Shiyou glanced at Elder Qi angrily.

As one of the five newly promoted families, the Jiang family's foundation was still not deep enough to influence a neutral faction like Elder Qi. Now that the other party had continuously voiced support for Xiao Chen and also led others, this put him in a very passive position.

If Jiang Shiyou had known from the beginning that things would turn out like this, he would definitely not have gotten involved in this mess.

But as the conflict intensified, it was no longer just his problem, but had become a struggle for status between the Jiang and Chen families under the watchful eyes of the public.

Now it has alarmed the twelve outer sect branches, the entire Law Enforcement Hall, and all the elders.

Since the previous investigation, the matter has become so serious that everyone, up and down the fire gate, is watching the outcome of the matter.

If he gave in now, not only would he lose face, but also the Jiang family's reputation.

If this gets out, outsiders will think that the Chen family is superior to the Jiang family.

At this point, Jiang Shiyou felt that he was in a difficult situation.

Elder Chen breathed a sigh of relief. He had indeed not expected Jiang Shiyou to be so stubborn. It was clearly a small matter but he refused to give in, making things much more complicated.

Fortunately, with the help of Elder Qi, the situation is now clearly one-sided.

Seeing this, Dachang was ready to mediate and end the conflict.

He looked at Jiang Shiyou: "Since..."

"I want to enforce the special regulations!" Jiang Shiyi gritted his teeth and interrupted the elder.

"The Law Enforcement Hall has special regulations that allow for the special detention of disciples who pose a significant risk to the sect. I am now detaining Xiao Chen under these special regulations for investigation."

"I will make the specific investigation results public in the sect hall within seven days at the latest."

Now, all the elders were confused. Xiao Chen’s past experience was very simple. What else was there to investigate?

Little did he know that Jiang Shiyou had already made up his mind.

As long as Xiao Chen is locked up, no matter if he was originally guilty or not, he must now be a spy sent by other sects.

He had not worked in the Law Enforcement Hall for these years in vain, and he was quite experienced in framing others.

"Don't bother. Let me check."

A deep voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.

Turning around, I saw a dignified middle-aged man wearing a crown and a loose round-necked robe walking slowly towards me.

Xiao Chen's eyes instantly focused as he looked at the bottom of the other party's Ruyi cloud-head shoes.

Walk on the air!

It is not difficult to just step into the air, but with the help of the other party's easy step, it is a hundred feet away. In just three breaths, he walked from the clouds several miles away to the front.

Then there is only one possibility, the person coming is a Jindan Zhenren!
The Great Elder immediately bowed and said, "Greetings to Master Ming Yan."

The other elders and disciples also bowed and saluted: "Greetings to Master Ming Yan!"

Master Ming Yan raised his right hand, and everyone present was immediately lifted up by a surge of spiritual power.

The Great Elder immediately replied, "Reporting to the Master, this disciple in the field is Xiao Chen."

Suddenly, everyone looked at Xiao Chen again.

Unexpectedly, an outer disciple who was originally unknown and had only low-grade spiritual roots could eventually alarm the Golden Core True Man to come forward in person.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen took a deep breath and greeted again: "Disciple Xiao Chen, greetings to the Master."
