Bound to Mary Sue, I am against involution in the world of immortal cultivation

"You..." The disciple who vaguely realized that something was wrong wanted to speak.

But Fan Ning stumbled and stepped on his leg, which seemed to be seriously injured.

"Hiss—" The disciples of Qingyun Sect gasped.

"Oh no, what a mistake," Fan Ning spread his hands and kicked again when the time was right.

"you--"

"Don't be angry, how can the wound heal like this?"

Fan Ning chuckled, and suddenly a gust of cold wind blew, causing the disciples, who were already in unbearable pain, to shiver.

His tense nerves kept reminding him of danger and that he had better escape quickly - but where was there any room for him to escape?

The three directions were blocked tightly. Although the other two people had no intention of speaking, they had already made their attitude clear just by standing there.

What a hell! The Qingyun Sect disciple with a ferocious look on his face spitted out a foul breath, and in the few seconds when the other party looked at him, he reviewed all the conflicts of last night.

"Did you leave here yesterday? That thief..."

"The only one of us who can fight has already been killed. Isn't he just hiding and waiting to be a target?" Fan Ning sneered and said to him, "As for that thief you mentioned, he does look familiar."

The Qingyun Sect disciples suddenly looked at him.

Fan Ning paused suspiciously for just a minute, and the expression on his face changed from thoughtful to vague.

"No, I must have seen it wrong," she said ambiguously.

Seeing this, Ling You immediately asked, "How could you possibly misjudge someone? It's come to this, what else is there to hide?"

"...You tell me," the disciple of Qingyun Sect wiped the blood from the corner of his eyes. He lowered his head, and the scar across half of his face gradually became visible.

Fan Ning continued to shake her head. Although she continued to speak, her voice gradually became lower and lower. "In the past few days, I have only seen people like that around the leader of Qingyun Sect. I'm not sure about other things, but I just remember that when she was nervous, her hands were always curled up like a cat... Maybe I've seen too much."

"The sect leader originally sent people to protect us. He had no selfish motives, so why would he choose two groups of people? Sending his own disciples to die... no matter how big a mistake he made, he shouldn't do that."

Ling You sneered, "There are so many two-faced people out there. I don't believe that the fire in that yard wasn't his doing."

Jiang Biehe agreed, "Since they chose the same day for the ambush, there's a high chance they have the same target."

"How is this possible..." The scarred disciple looked shocked and angry, "No, there must be something wrong."

Fan Ning: "That's right, there's a problem. How can you continue to be competent for your protection duties in this state?"

"Someone's clearly trying to kill us!" She crossed her arms, a look of annoyance on her face. "It feels terrible to have our own forces constantly undermined."

"I think I should seek refuge in Yueli Sect... Although my dear sister is still in the Cliff of Repentance, the leader of Yueli Sect is reasonable and will surely not turn us away."

"No!" The scarred-faced disciple retorted subconsciously. His mind was still stuck on what had happened before. When he heard these people were about to run away, he subconsciously threatened them: "If you dare to leave..."

"So what?" Fan Ning sneered, "At worst, we won't need compensation and can just live together in Yueli Sect!"

"...What's going on again?"

A burst of light blue spiritual energy came with the wind and helped up the seriously injured scarred disciple on the ground.

"Last night's incident was due to our inconsiderateness, but our disciples were seriously injured while protecting you. They really shouldn't have heard such disheartening words." The Qingyun Sect's leader's expression changed again, as if he had been struck by something. His brows were filled with worry. "Now that things have come to this, for your safety, it's better for you to stay in the Qingyun Sect..."

Fan Ning smiled, slightly raising the end of his eyebrows.

"No," she said in a cold and indifferent voice, and under the increasingly oppressive gaze of the other party, she said seriously: "Trust can be overdrawn. How can I trust someone who was just about to threaten me?"

The leader of Qingyun Sect suppressed his anger and said, "That's not what he meant..."

"It's okay, as long as I mean it that way."

Fan Ning poked Ling You beside him. Ling You understood and took out a sound transmission talisman from his waist.

Last night, there was a "pearl and jade" in front of him at the Cliff of Repentance. As soon as the leader of Qingyun Sect saw the shadow of this talisman, the corners of his mouth began to turn down.

But Fan Ning refused to let him go. "This is something my sister gave me. She said it can summon help... Actually, I haven't used it yet. I just don't know who my sister is talking about."

"..."

The leader of Qingyun Sect: "..."

He was pounding his head with damn memories!

"You have somewhere to go, then go ahead. But the herbs I promised you..."

"Master!" The scarred disciple spoke urgently, stretching out his hands to grab Jiang Biehe who was so close to him, but the other party dodged him lightly, leaving a pair of blood-stained hands suspended in mid-air.

Fan Ning turned his head and showed a hint of surprise at the right moment.

"Tsk, my life is more important. If the clan leader really doesn't want to give it to me, then forget it."

Ling You looked at her in surprise, and as expected, he waited for the second half of the sentence.

"It just so happens that my sister has a good master. I'm sure she'd be happy to provide us with some help."

——Then you can spread the dark history of Qingyun Sect deceiving monks and bullying young people everywhere?

"It's just a little thing. It's not that Qingyun Sect can't afford it." The veins on the face of the sect leader, whose hands were repeatedly stabbed and bleeding, were faintly bulging. What made him more unable to swallow this anger than the financial loss was obviously Fan Ning himself.

It might be wise to give in a little before achieving the goal, but - he is the leader of a sect after all, how can he let others arrogantly climb over his head?

"There are also disciples in our sect who have suffered backlash. In a few days, we will deliver all the medicinal herbs he used to you."

Fan Ning: "But..."

The clan leader interrupted directly: "There will be Tongxin grass, which is considered as additional compensation."

Fan Ning smiled and said, "Okay, since the Sect Master has said so."

"That's the end of it."

Ling You looked at the sect leader's extremely gloomy face as the two confronted each other, and coughed while covering his mouth.

——So far, it is obviously just a lie.

But after the problem was resolved on the surface, the rest of the time became easier.

The Qingyun Sect sent a few more disciples to protect them. Although they said they were going to seek refuge with their "sister" at the foot of the Cliff of Repentance, everyone who followed them knew how untrue this statement was.

Gu Yuanzhou, who was pushed by Qin Mingzheng to send someone off, did not look very happy.

Even if I knew from the bottom of my heart that the person in front of me was a girl, the emotions that were aroused would not fade away so easily, not to mention——

"I didn't instigate Ming Zheng to hide your fan," Fan Ning said helplessly after being glared at several times on the way, and turned her head to catch his gaze.

The other party was caught off guard and stared, seemingly immersed in the frustration of failing in love.

"I didn't. I don't care whether Zheng likes it or not."

Fan Ning was amused and laughed, "Really?"

The moment Ling You heard her words, an alarm sounded in his mind.

But Fan Ning was free, and he still didn't have time to stop her.

"Then I hope you'll like the next person Ming Zheng falls for." Fan Ning had long been fed up with his attitude. She chuckled and casually revealed the sachet in her hand. "After all, having a friend who can give you a calming sachet is much better than a man who's stubborn."
