When my cultivation is recovering, the sect comes to persuade me to quit? I agree!

Xuanling Holy Sect.

The chief's meeting room.

The elders of the inner sect gathered together, and the voices of condemnation rose one after another.

"Sect Master, recently, the Saint Sect's disciples have made rapid progress in their cultivation. Lu Chen became jealous and deliberately destroyed the spiritual spring. I hope you will understand!"

"Master, since the founding of the Xuanling Holy Sect more than 500 years ago, there has never been such a terrible incident as the destruction of the spiritual spring!"

"Master, we found a tortoise feather in Lu Chen's residence, which is consistent with the spiritual medicine left at the exit of the spiritual spring!"

Accusations came one after another, and Lu Chen looked dazed and frowned slightly.

"Lu Chen, do you have anything to say?"

In the center of the conference room, on the sect leader's seat, a woman in white had a stern gaze and a cold voice.

Lu Chen raised his eyes, his slightly thin lips pressed into a line, his heart already filled with turmoil.

A large amount of memories flooded in instantly, and the fragmented images gradually became coherent.

Blood, fighting, all kinds of spiritual lights intertwined with each other... Finally, it fell silent.

Faced with several unfriendly looks, Lu Chen wanted to argue.

Finally, a hoarse sentence came out of his throat.

"I'm back!"

Upon hearing this, the steward of the Inner Sect Elders' Council flew into a rage.

"Lu Chen, this is the meeting room, the Sect Master is asking you a question! Stop playing tricks!"

Lu Chen was stuck in his memory of what just happened.

Lu Chen, a disciple of Xuanling Holy Sect, guarded the devil's cave for three hundred years in order to protect the sect.

In order to suppress the demon cave, his spiritual roots were destroyed and all his cultivation was lost.

When he returned to the sect, he was despised and looked down upon by everyone in the sect.

In the end, he was tortured to death and bore hatred for nine days!

When I opened my eyes again, I returned to the meeting hall, the day when I was being criticized by thousands of people.

Looking around, Lu Chen felt a sense of tragedy in his heart.

Since God has brought me back to this day, it must be to make up for my regrets.

Then, I will defy fate and change my destiny!

Seeing Lu Chen remained silent, the elder in charge of the cabinet snorted coldly and knelt in the hall again.

"Master, it takes four years for the spiritual spring water to have spiritual energy. All of my ten thousand inner sect disciples place their hopes on the spiritual spring."

"Now that the spiritual spring has been destroyed, as the caretaker of the spiritual spring, Lu Chen cannot escape the blame!"

"Besides, now that the perpetrators have been caught red-handed, I hope that the Sect Master will quickly punish the evildoers and give an explanation to all the disciples of the Holy Sect!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a woman in red strode up to Lu Chen, her eyes stern and her face full of resentment, as if she wished she could bite her teeth to pieces.

"Lu Chen, I didn't expect you to be so narrow-minded. It was you who took the initiative to propose going to the Demon Cave in Yuling Mountain. No one forced you!"

“It’s a pity that you’ve lost your cultivation and bones, but that’s your fate. You can’t lose even your original intention!”

"The three hundred years of protection are engraved in the hearts of all the sect disciples. But today, you hinder the practice of all the disciples because of jealousy. What is your intention?"

Lu Chen raised his eyes and calmly looked at his junior sister Chi Lingxiao who was venting her anger.

Without giving Lu Chen a chance to refute, the unwilling voice of the elder in charge of the cabinet was heard again.

"Without the spiritual spring water, the disciples of the Holy Sect can only practice for another ten years at most."

"I'm afraid the spiritual spring will be destroyed and there will be no possibility of repairing it!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces showed tension.

If the spiritual spring cannot be repaired, it will be a huge loss for the entire Holy Sect!

In an instant, several murderous gazes turned towards Lu Chen!

Lu Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.

These people are determined to kill me!

Frame up and kill people!

A lot of the same!

Hundreds of years ago, I offered to guard the demon cave.

It was precisely because of their three hundred years of bloody fighting that the Xuanling Sect was able to develop steadily, gradually grow stronger, and become the Xuanling Holy Sect.

In order to suppress the demon cave, he also paid a heavy price.

No different from ordinary people in the world, without any cultivation at all.

Now, these people not only forgot about the past, but also made up an excuse to destroy the spiritual spring!

Such a false accusation is ridiculous!

As the head of the Medicine Refining Hall, Junior Sister Chi Lingxiao is intelligent and smart.

As for the elder in charge of the cabinet, there has never been any mistake since he took charge of the Kung Fu Pavilion.

They were both serious and calm, so how could they be so confused at this moment?

As a sect leader, I, Lu Chen, can spend three hundred years in the Demon Cave. Why would I care about your broken spiritual spring? !

The hall was silent.

Finally, Lu Chen raised his eyes and slowly looked at the woman on the sect master's throne.

The woman has skin as white as jade, and is cool and beautiful. She is the leader of the Xuanling Holy Sect and also his master.

During her many years in power, Yu Yanxue has always been as cold and chilling as a rare piece of jade.

At this moment, the expression on her face was the same as that of everyone else.

disdain!

hatred!

The disdain and disgust in his eyes almost overflowed.

Lu Chen sneered.

The three people in front of us are all involved in this conspiracy!

The idea was thought up by Junior Sister Chi Lingxiao.

The elders in charge of the cabinet were also involved in destroying the spiritual spring.

But if Sect Leader Yu Yanxue hadn't given the nod, how could others have such courage?

Lu Chen's heart sank little by little...

The former master-disciple relationship seems to be fading away little by little...

You really put a lot of thought into this for the upcoming junior brother!

At this moment, no one remembered the price they paid for the peace of the Holy Sect.

The only thing these people were thinking about was Yu Yanxue's other direct disciple, Qi Ze!

Is it impossible to repair the spiritual spring?

nonsense!

If this is true, then Qi Ze has worked in vain.

These people are working so hard today just to make room for Qi Ze!

It's not nice to kick people out abruptly, so this happened!

In the previous life, he took it as his responsibility to protect the Xuanling Holy Sect and obeyed his master's words.

But now, Lu Chen doesn't want to do that!

They don't deserve to risk their lives for these heartless people who destroy bridges after crossing the river!

Moreover, for the sake of their so-called innocence, it is not worth it for me to go to Siguo Peak, a bitter and cold place with no spiritual energy, to be punished and lose the only chance to recover my cultivation!

That day, junior fellow apprentice Qi Ze held the Lingfeng sword in his hand and looked at him with contempt.

"Big Brother, are you feeling worse than death right now?"

"The former hero of the sect is now as miserable as a dog!"

"No, even dogs have more backbone than you. At least dogs will bark a few times. What can you do?"

Lu Chen was lying in a pool of blood, his face ashen. When he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of black blood.

The life in his eyes gradually faded, as if he was really waiting to die.

I couldn't remember how many times my tendons in my hands and feet were cut and reconnected, and I didn't know how many bowls of unknown medicine I drank.

The only thing I remember is Qi Ze's words, "I will make you wish you were dead, but you can't live!"

A burst of sword energy attacked, and blood flowed from Lu Chen's cheek.

Qi Ze's voice became increasingly cold.

"I know you want to die, so I'll grant your wish. From now on, I won't play with you anymore!"

"This prince is going back to Beili to take charge of government affairs."

"Today, let this prince's Ling Feng send you off!"

"From now on, there will be no Lu Chen in Xuanling Holy Sect!"

Sword energy suddenly rose, and with a wave of Qi Ze's hand, the Lingfeng sword pierced straight through Lu Chen's heart!

Lu Chen shuddered and regained consciousness.

Today, I, Lu Chenduan, will no longer be manipulated by others, nor will I be anyone's pawn!

The meeting room was eerily quiet, and the air was slightly chilly.

Everyone seemed to be waiting for Lu Chen's answer.

"Lu Chen, you are a meritorious official of the Holy Sect. If you can take the blame yourself, I will not make things difficult for you."

As she spoke, Yu Yanxue's eyes trembled slightly.

According to Lu Chen's personality, he would definitely refute it.

But who would have thought that Lu Chen actually admitted it!

"Master, I am wrong."

Yu Yanxue's expression froze for a moment, and soon her breathing became steady.

"In front of all the elders, tell me why you want to destroy the spiritual spring?"

"Master, as the guardian of the spiritual spring, my fault was that I failed to catch the mastermind who destroyed the spiritual spring in time!"

"Lu Chen, until now, you still don't admit that you were responsible for the damage to the spiritual spring?"

“Why admit to something you never did?”

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lu Chen spoke in a loud voice, and his rebuttal was powerful and resounding.

Yu Yanxue felt embarrassed and her face was full of anger.

"Playing tricks on the Sect Master is truly treasonous!"

"You destroyed the spiritual spring without any remorse, you deserve to be punished!"

"Come here, from now on, Saint Sect disciple Lu Chen must move out of Lingquan Pavilion and is not allowed to approach Lingquan for ten years!"

"In addition, Lu Chen disobeyed the Sect Master and despised him, so he was ordered to stay at Siguo Peak for three years!"

After Yu Yanxue gave the order, the expressions on everyone's faces eased.

Since he has lost his own cultivation, he does not want to help others to succeed. For such a wicked person, it would be too easy for him to stay in the bitter and cold Siguo Peak!

Such people with ulterior motives should be executed!

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Chi Lingxiao's mouth corners raised, and his eyes were filled with undisguised pride.

"Lu Chen, why don't you kneel down and thank me?"

"The Sect Master did this out of consideration for our past friendship!"

"You have committed a heinous crime today. According to the rules of the Holy Sect, you should have been expelled from the sect long ago!"

"Don't be ignorant!"
