In Emei, start by obtaining golden attributes.

Chapter 35 Thunderous Means
Finally, Miejue turned to Zhou Zhiruo and nodded, saying, "Zhiruo, you're not bad either."

Upon receiving such praise for the first time, Zhou Zhiruo's starry eyes flickered, and a look of joy welled up in her heart.

But then she lowered her head and said, "It's all because of Junior Brother protecting Zhiruo. Zhiruo doesn't deserve Master's praise."

Miejue smiled and said, "Although you still have courage, you can listen to Shao'an and take action at crucial moments. For someone of your character, that's already quite remarkable."

After offering some fair comments, Miejue withdrew her gaze, then put one hand behind her back and walked towards Ding Minjun without saying a word.

Sensing the approach of extinction, Ding Minjun subconsciously tightened her grip on the sword, but then immediately loosened it.

It's not that I don't want to resist.

Ding Minjun knew that with her strength, she would be no match for Miejue, let alone with just this ordinary sword. Even if she were given a divine weapon like the Heaven-Slaying Sword, she would still be no match for Miejue.

A few breaths later, Miejue's pair of cloth shoes came into Ding Minjun's lowered gaze.

Her gaze fell on Ding Minjun, and Miejue's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty.

After a long while, the sound of extinction slowly rang out.

"why?"

Although the voice was as solemn and dignified as ever, it was tinged with a hint of heartache.

It was like a bucket of ice water being poured over Ding Minjun's head, making her shiver involuntarily.

Ding Minjun raised her head somewhat blankly, opened her mouth, but when the words reached her lips, she didn't know where to begin.

Since Extinction had been spying from the shadows all along, her actions were naturally seen by Extinction as well.

Caught red-handed, even Ding Minjun, who was usually eloquent, was at a loss for words to defend herself.

Immediately, Ding Minjun, ignoring the injury and excruciating pain in her leg, knelt down and looked up to admit her mistake, saying, "Master, I was just momentarily blinded by greed and jealous of Junior Brother's talent. After returning to Emei, I am willing to be confined in the back mountain for half a year, no, a year."

"I only beg Master to spare me this time, considering the ten years we've spent together."

Looking at Ding Minjun, who kept pleading with him, Miejue's eyes showed a hint of pity.

But these feelings of reluctance were quickly suppressed by the desire to exterminate them.

The opportunity, the extinction, has already been given to Ding Minjun.

If Ding Minjun can obey orders and take good care of Gu Shaoan and Zhou Zhiruo this time, it at least proves that Ding Minjun still has Emei in her heart, still has her master, and still has good intentions.

His usual behavior was nothing more than arrogant and domineering, and somewhat sarcastic and mean-spirited.

From the perspective of extinction, although it is a flaw, it can be corrected as long as it is adjusted.

If used well, he could become a strict elder within the Emei Sect and be admitted to the Law Enforcement Hall.

But Ding Minjun's actions were simply too much.

As a senior sister, instead of offering help to her junior brothers and sisters when they were in trouble, she secretly attacked them.

Later, when he realized that his tracks had been discovered, he became even more determined to kill.

Such a person, let alone his own disciples, would not be easily forgiven by Miejue even by the elders of the Emei Sect.

Taking a deep breath, Miejue suddenly leaned forward, her right palm landing swiftly and powerfully on Ding Minjun's head.

As the palm strike was unleashed, Ding Minjun immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

The divine light in his eyes vanished quickly after he spat out that mouthful of blood.

Zhou Zhiruo, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but gasp softly and turn her head away.

Looking at Ding Minjun lying on the ground, Miejue's hand trembled involuntarily.

But he quickly withdrew his hand into his sleeve and said loudly, "Remember, all disciples of Emei must never fight among themselves. Anyone who harms a fellow disciple will be killed without mercy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Juechen and the other Emei disciples and elders quickly responded, "We will obey the sect leader's order."

Gu Shaoan first glanced at Ding Minjun on the ground, and then at Miejue.

"As expected, there are only wrong names, not wrong titles. My master, when it's time to take action, shows absolutely no mercy!"

Extinction's reputation for hating evil is known throughout the martial arts world, and it is also her methods that make those villains in the martial arts world tremble with fear.

Once they take action, they are ruthless and merciless, caring only about right and wrong, regardless of human feelings.

If it were someone else, they would inevitably hesitate or even be unable to carry out the act when faced with the choice of sacrificing family for the greater good.

But extinction is completely absent from the list.

After all, when Miejue gets ruthless, she's a vicious person who would even kill herself.

If Ding Minjun had simply turned a blind eye to the bandits attacking Gu Shaoan and Zhou Zhiruo, and instead tried to use them as pawns, perhaps Miejue would have only crippled Ding Minjun's martial arts and imprisoned her in the Emei Forbidden Area for the rest of her life.

But Ding Minjun, as the senior sister, actually wanted to actively harm her junior brothers and sisters.

Moreover, those present were not only Miejue and Gu Shaoan, Zhou Zhiruo, but also Juechen and other elders and disciples of the Emei Sect.

If Ding Minjun doesn't die, how can Miejue, the sect leader, maintain her authority?
However, looking back on this bandit suppression operation, when Miejue was on the mountain, he only took him, Zhou Zhiruo, and Ding Minjun with him, which was already a plan to test Ding Minjun.

As for the reason, Gu Shaoan vaguely sensed that it lay within himself.

For a sect, a disciple with outstanding talent is extremely important.

Throughout her life, Miejue dedicated herself to glorifying the Emei Sect and eradicating the Ming Cult.

The talent he had previously displayed might have led Miejue to believe that Emei could grow stronger because of him.

That's why they set up this scheme to test Ding Minjun.

But whatever the purpose of today's events, the starting point was for Gu Shaoan's good.

Gu Shaoan could only accept this favor.

At this moment, Miejue turned her head again and glanced at Ding Minjun on the ground.

Finally, he sighed and waved his hand at Juechen, saying, "After all, we were master and disciple. Find a propitious burial place for the two disciples!"

Juechen nodded and casually beckoned several disciples to carry away Ding Minjun's body.

While Juechen and the other Emei disciples continued their search of the mountain stronghold, Miejue turned her head and glanced at Gu Shaoan.

What are you hiding in your left sleeve?

Gu Shaoan didn't hide anything. He loosened his fingers, which had been pressing against his cuff, and some powder fell into his hand.

"This is some medicinal powder that I prepared before I went down the mountain. When sprinkled out, it can cause people to faint."

Since it was his first time coming down the mountain, and given his current lack of strength, Gu Shaoan not only prepared a powder that could detect poison, but also some other medicines with different effects in case of emergency.

Extinction glanced at the powder in Gu Shaoan's hand, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The strength of a martial artist lies in himself. Using poison to harm others is not the way of a righteous person. Unless it is a critical moment, it is best not to use such methods."

Gu Shaoan nodded and said, "This disciple understands."

Seeing Gu Shaoan's quick response, Miejue nodded slightly.

His gloomy brows softened slightly.

But thinking of Ding Minjun, Miejue couldn't help but sigh softly.

　Regarding the Ding Minjun storyline, the author admits that it was a bit rushed. The main concern was that if it became too long, some people would think it was padded, as it took so much space to write about a supporting character. However, after reading the comments and confirming everyone's opinions, the author will spend more time developing similar storylines in the future to avoid such a rough process!
