So what! Are you going to kill me?

Chapter 23 Collective Punishment

Lin Yanqiu finally saw the golden figure, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "Come on, I'm waiting for you."

Jin Cancan, carrying an oversized floral bag, asked him stealthily in a low voice, "Brother Lin, do you have a storage ring that can hold living things?"

Lin Yanqiu took out his ring and stared at the thing on her back: "What are you going to pretend?"

"I picked up a pet." Jin Cancan said briefly and stuffed Jin Wangcai into his arms: "I'll ask you to give it back later."

Can I still find pets in Tingxue Valley?

Lin Yanqiu was a little puzzled, but he didn't say anything. He stuffed the gold Wangcai into his soul ring. The light from the dragon horn made him stunned for a moment: "What race?"

"Dragon clan." Jin Cancan followed him into the teleportation array. The white light surged, and the strange feeling of weightlessness made her feel like she was about to float up.

"What?" Lin Yanqiu was stunned and lowered his voice: "Dragon clan?! Where did they come from!"

Only uncontracted divine beasts can be placed in other people's soul-gathering rings. Jin Cancan actually stuffed such a precious dragon cub into his ring? !

If it were someone else, they would have already signed the contract. If they don’t have enough strength, they would try their best to secretly find a place to sell it at a sky-high price to ensure that no one would know.

This guy is really open-minded and doesn't hide anything at all.

Jin Cancan answered honestly: "Ting Xuegu picked it up. There was a group of people who had been looking for lost treasures before. Most likely they were looking for Jin Wangcai."

Lin Yanqiu's mouth twitched: "You guy, you even know that it was someone else's lost thing."

Jin Cancan was not justified but was very confident: "I have made enemies with them, and that group of people sent people to kill me today! Even if I send Jin Wangcai back to them, they will definitely accuse me of stealing the dragon eggs."

When Wangcai was found, it had not yet opened its eyes, so when Tang Xizhou and his gang lost it, it was most likely still just an egg.

It must have encountered some accident on the road, and external force caused its "premature birth".

Lin Yanqiu was a person who was extremely protective of his people. When he heard that Jin Cancan was also under siege, his attention was immediately diverted. He immediately frowned and said, "Tell me the characteristics of those people carefully. I want to find out which sect's people are so tired of living that they dared to hurt the disciples of my Tianping Sword Sect!"

Lin Yanqiu quickly imagined the tragic scene in which Jin Cancan experienced the siege while protecting the dragon egg, and he explained to Jin Cancan the logic of why he "had to" take the baby dragon away.

Even if we take a step back, Jin Cancan has already given the dragon a name, so how can that not be considered a covenant?

The light of the teleportation array disappeared, and the scene in front of him was drastically different.

This is much more convenient than taking a plane or high-speed rail, which is quite interesting.

Being a formation cultivator doesn't seem to be a bad idea.

Jin Cancan squatted on the ground to study it, but before she could come up with any results, she was picked up by Lin Yanqiu: "I have removed the restriction on the ring, you can use it first. Don't tell anyone else about the baby dragon. There are many rules for raising dragons. I'll bring you a book later."

Jin Cancan nodded, took his Soul Collection Ring, and took out a box of Purple Gold Panlong Pills: "Thank you, Senior Brother. This is for you. You can eat it yourself or share it with others. It's best if you can use it up today."

Lin Yanqiu took it and thought it was just some ordinary elixir she brought from the auction house in the mortal world. Although he probably wouldn't be able to use it, it was her thought after all: "I understand. I'll eat all of it today."

The two of them had just exchanged a few words when the elder sent someone to urge them.

Xue Ning: "Senior Brother Lin, Elder Xie asked me to bring Jin Cancan over and called her name right away."

Lin Yanqiu nodded to Jin Cancan: "Go."

Jin Cancan followed Xue Ning towards the first mountain.

Xie Sheng was the second elder of the Tian Ping Sword Sect. He stared sternly at Jin Cancan as he returned to the team and snorted coldly, "One of you was ten minutes late, so the total time wasted by everyone is a full two hours."

"In that case, your dinner time will be delayed by two hours. Please learn from this."

"In these two hours, you have to climb from the first peak to the third peak, and then carry the logs prepared on the third peak back here."

"If it's not finished before dinner, then you don't have to eat."

The new disciples did not dare to argue and all looked bitter. The first peak was very steep and they had to be extremely alert even when going down the mountain. The third peak was even higher and more rocky. Just going up and down would cost them half their lives, right?

They are just mortals at the moment, and the logs are not only heavy but also large in size. If they get bumped while carrying them up the mountain, they may lose their lives...

The new disciples did not dare to disobey Xie Sheng and only blamed Jin Cancan for the incident.

"If it weren't for her, we wouldn't have to be punished."

"I'm really impressed. She got me into trouble on the first day. I don't know what kind of trouble she will cause in the future."

"Stop talking. It might still be in time for us to go down the mountain."

They had many complaints about Jin Cancan and looked at her with very unfriendly eyes.

Jin Cancan was not moved by the pressure of everyone's gazes. Instead, she asked clearly, "Elder Xie, who notified us of the gathering time?"

Xie Sheng was too lazy to answer her questions. Every year there would be troublemakers and young people who loved to show off, and they would behave themselves after a good beating.

Xue Ning answered her: "The person responsible for informing new disciples of the various rules is the head of the Chang Sui Hall. Do you have any objection?"

Jin Cancan asked in a clear voice: "Have all the fellow disciples present received any specific notification of the gathering time?"

No one responded, but it was obvious that no one knew the exact time.

"Thank you, Elder. Without rules, there will be no order." Jin Cancan said with a smile, "Since you want to punish us all, the person who is most responsible, the head of the Chang Sui Hall, should be punished together with us."

Is she crazy?

The new disciples stopped in astonishment and stared at her in surprise.

"No rules." Xie Sheng's beard trembled, but his tone was calm: "I may not be very capable, but I have a big mouth."

Xie Sheng was intimidating without even getting angry. Although there was no anger on his face, people could not help but lower their heads to avoid his gaze and avoid his sharp scrutiny.

Jin Cancan looked straight at him and said, "Such a pedantic system of collective punishment should not appear in a sect as sensible as ours, right, Elder Xie?"

"Any sect with a sound system would not use this method of venting anger on its disciples. Perhaps your original intention was to tell us that the sect is one and that we should advance and retreat together, but this method of punishing individuals by blaming the collective for their mistakes will only put the individual under collective pressure, which is not conducive to unity."

"Like now, if the glare can kill, my body should be full of holes. How can I trust them to take care of me when I go on missions in the future?"

"If you just walk away, they will definitely use verbal violence against me. Harsh words will hurt people in March. This will damage my Tao heart and hinder my cultivation. Who knows, I might stop moving forward and not even be able to reach the threshold of the Qi Refining Stage!"
