On the second floor of the Su family's library, the atmosphere was cold. Lin Xia and the pink-clothed woman both had grim expressions. The pink-clothed woman now realized that she had caused a great disaster.
But how could she be willing to let that bitch Lin Xia get away with it?!
Looking at the elder who didn't speak but exuded a sense of dominance and had a gloomy face, the woman in pink was secretly shocked and could not admit that she was the one who did it.
"It was her, Elder. It was Lin Xia who started it first. I was just defending myself." The pink-clothed woman blurted out with a thought.
Lin Xia was almost laughing with anger. He was really good at turning the tables. Did he think the elder in front of him was just a decoration? To be able to guard the library, he must have a high level of cultivation. I'm afraid nothing that happened on the entire second floor could escape this elder's divine sense.
Thinking of this, Lin Xia felt a little relieved and his expression eased a little. Although his words had irritated the pink-clothed female cultivator, he had not used any spiritual power, so he should not be punished too severely.
But before Lin Xia could explain, the elder in front of him slapped his palm, and Lin Xia and the woman in pink flew out together.
Lin Xia only felt a sharp pain in his chest, his spiritual power surged, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Hmph, you guys are not allowed to act so presumptuously in the library! You ignorant little brats!"
This was the first time that Lin Xia was injured after being in the world of cultivation for so long. It seemed as if all his internal organs had been severely damaged. His eyes went dark and he passed out.
Soon, many disciples of the Su family knew that the elders of the library had punished two Qi Refining disciples who had the audacity to destroy the jade slips. One of them was Lin Xia, an orphan girl with eight mixed spiritual roots who lived in the Su family as a cousin.
The disciples were discussing among themselves.
"An orphan girl who takes up the cultivation resources of the direct descendants but has no special abilities actually dares to offend the elders of the library. She is simply overestimating her own abilities."
"The Su family has been very kind to her."
"A waste of resources."
……
Most of the disciples have long been dissatisfied with Lin Xia's qualifications of eight kinds of mixed spiritual roots, but he can receive the cultivation resources of the direct descendants and live in the main house.
For a moment, everyone couldn't help but sigh for Su Lingxue, who was once one of the two best talents of the Su family.
This rumor was of course fueled by Su Qingyue.
When Lin Xia woke up, she felt pain all over her body, her spiritual energy coursing through her body. Whether in her past life or this life, this was the most serious injury Lin Xia had ever suffered, and she was unable to react for a while.
But the severe pain in his chest soon awakened Lin Xia's memories. He thought of the indifferent elder on the second floor of the library and the unexpected disaster he had suffered.
After a while, Lin Xia realized that she had returned to Huanxiju and was in her own room.
"Miss, are you awake? Do you want to sit up?" Liu Shuang, holding a basin of water, saw Lin Xia who had woken up as soon as she entered the room, and hurriedly walked forward.
"No need." Lin Xia's chest hurt so much that she didn't want to move.
"What's the situation now? Does the elder have any other instructions?" Having already been beaten, Lin Xia was most concerned about whether there would be any other punishment.
Hearing Lin Xia's words, Liu Shuang's expression instantly turned grim. "I'll punish you by confining yourself to the family's confined area for three months."
"Where is the pink-dressed female cultivator who was beaten with me?" As expected, Lin Xia had already guessed in her heart that the matter was not over yet.
Liu Shuang had an awkward look on her face, and even lowered her head when Lin Xia looked at her.
Lin Xia was shocked, "She wasn't punished?" "Yes." Liu Shuang nodded hesitantly.
"Okay, very good." So this is what it means to be treated differently. No wonder the elder of the library slapped me without knowing right from wrong. I thought before that he was just venting his anger on me, but now I understand that he just didn't take me seriously.
"Okay, you go out first." Looking at the closed door, Lin Xia couldn't help but let out a heavy breath, holding his aching chest and smiling bitterly. It was just because he had no relatives to protect him.
At this moment, Lin Xia was overwhelmed by a huge sense of helplessness, and the idea of leaving the Su family began to become stronger in her heart.
After a few days of spiritual energy training, Lin Xia's injuries had mostly healed. However, Liu Shuang was still very nervous and insisted that Lin Xia stay in bed to recuperate.
In the past few days, Lin Xia has learned from Liu Shuang where the family forbidden area is.
There is an open space behind the Su family's main house, which is connected to a cliff. At the bottom of the cliff, there is an ancient soul-destroying formation. The spiritual energy is cut off and no grass grows.
However, the Su family would not allow the punished disciples to enter the bottom of the cliff. They just set up a formation on the cliff above to isolate the strong wind at the bottom of the cliff and created a platform for the disciples who made mistakes to face the wall and reflect on their mistakes.
Because of the soul-destroying array at the bottom of the cliff, the cliff was ultimately affected, and the spiritual energy was scarce. Moreover, due to the constant strong wind at the bottom of the cliff, strange sounds could always be heard on the platform. The terrifying effect was maximized, and it was definitely not a good place to be.
In the past, those who were punished to go to the family forbidden area to practice meditation were all disciples who had committed serious mistakes. This time, Lin Xia was punished so easily, simply because Lin Xia had poor aptitude, slow progress in cultivation, no prospects, and no backing.
The injury was mostly healed. Just when Lin Xia was wondering when the Su family would send her into the family's forbidden area, Manager Li, who had not been seen for a long time, came to Huanxiju with two men in black.
Lin Xia still remembered Manager Li, but she was a little scared of the two men in black behind him. After all, they looked murderous, and one could tell at a glance that they had no good intentions.
Steward Li was still the same, smiling, but the smile did not reach his eyes. "Miss, this is someone from the family's Discipline Hall. They are here to escort you to the family's forbidden area. I hope you will cooperate."
Before Lin Xia could answer, a man in black behind Manager Li took two steps forward and said, "Please hurry up, Miss, and don't waste our time." Although the two men in black were disciples of the Su family's collateral branch, their cultivation was close to the foundation-building stage. They looked down on Lin Xia, a waste with eight mixed spiritual roots, and were naturally not polite in their words.
Lin Xia's eyes moved slightly, and she ignored the man in black. She just looked at Manager Li and said, "Sorry to bother Manager Li. I'll pack my things right away."
"It's not a problem. The forbidden area is short of spiritual energy and outsiders are not allowed to enter without permission. Miss, remember to bring more spiritual stones and fasting pills." Manager Li paused and reminded.
This was a rare kindness she had felt since arriving at the Su family. Lin Xia's heart was moved. "Thank you."
What Su Qingyue said was not wrong. This time, Lin Xia was just staying at the Su family temporarily. When you are under someone's eaves, you have to bow your head, let alone the eaves of someone else's house.
Lin Xia calmly followed the people from the Discipline Hall towards the forbidden area behind the Su family.
However, Lin Xia still remembered to send a message to Su Linghan, telling him that he needed to practice in seclusion, lest he enter the forbidden area and fail to reply to messages in time, which would make his uncle worry.
Arriving at the cliff of the back mountain, the first thing that caught his eye was the bottomless cliff. Lin Xia understood that this should be the place where the soul-destroying array was set up. He wondered what the situation inside would be like.
The people from the Su Family Discipline Hall did not stay long. They used the formation flag to open the restriction, sent Lin Xia in, and then left.
