After rebirth, the eldest sister voluntarily abdicated and gave way to the wise.

Chapter 320 He Doesn’t Believe Me

“Thank you, Master.

"You're right. It's meaningless for me to think so much now. I'm still too weak."

[Ding! The backlash value of the young master's inner demon has decreased by 3%. The current backlash value is 45%.]

Zhongdao touched her head again, turned his head with a sad look to look in the direction of Linglong Pavilion, and walked away with a heavy heart.

Before leaving, he gave her many healing pills and protective magic tools, and told her that she was alone at Jianfeng and must take good care of herself.

Jiang Liqian saw him off before returning to Linglongxuan.

As soon as she saw Immortal Master Qingzhi, she knelt down.

"You must know who wants to harm Xu Youan, right?

"Please, tell me."

The Immortal Venerable Qingzhi sat upright on the high Mingtang, his ink-black hair dragging on the ground, the corners of his snow-white robe blending with the light from the window, and layers of icy snow and frost piled up on it.

"You shouldn't get too close to him." His voice was faint, like the sound of Sanskrit from outer space.

Jiang Li lowered his eyes and clenched his fists.

"This is my business, Master—Immortal Venerable."

Qingzhi frowned and looked at her, looking at the thin and frail girl standing at the jade steps. The little warmth on the sword peak seemed to gather towards her, forming a layer of light mist around her.

It was this thin layer of mist that prevented him from seeing her fate.

or.

Her destiny had long been stolen away in a despicable manner.

The gentle icy wind blew his silk embroidered cuffs, and in a trance, the peach blossoms on Jianfeng seemed to bloom again.

"If you are willing to give up your status as a disciple of Zhenfeng and join me, becoming the eldest sister of Jianfeng, or even the sect, I can tell you the answer you seek."

"Impossible!" Jiang Liqian was so excited that she suddenly stood up from the ground and bit her jaw in anger. "I will never be your disciple in my lifetime! Not even after I die!"

There was no expression on the face of Immortal Master Qingzhi. He just waved his sleeves and Jiang Liqian and Feixue were swept out of Linglong Pavilion.

When falling into the snowdrift, Jiang Liqian only hated herself for not being a cultivator who had overcome tribulations like him. In front of him, she would always be like a clown!

She angrily brushed off the snow on her head and was about to leave this unpleasant place when two shadows suddenly appeared in front of her, both wearing the disciple uniforms of the Discipline Hall.

Coming to see her?

She was confused.

The two disciples nodded affirmatively at her, showed her their tokens, and wanted to take her to the Discipline Hall.

Jiang Liqian actually wanted to go.

"But the Sect Master said that if I dare to take a step beyond the Sword Peak, he will break my legs. What do you think...why don't you go and talk to him and ask him to be flexible?"

"..." The two disciples looked at each other and came up with an idea at the same time -

What kind of lewd words is she saying?

One of them stepped forward, coughed, and said to her, "We need to inform the elders of the Discipline Hall about the situation here first. Junior Sister Jiang, you have a good relationship with Senior Brother Ji, so we'd like to ask you a question. Since you arrived at Jianfeng, besides the time Senior Brother Ji took you into the forbidden area, have you ever entered the forbidden area or visited the sealed area?"

Jiang Liqian shook her head decisively: "No."

After a pause, she asked tentatively, "Why do you ask this, Senior Brother?"

The two disciples looked at each other again, and after receiving each other's affirmative nod, they turned to look at Jiang Liqian.

"We carefully examined the seal of the snail and found that the remaining aura contained... thunder spiritual power."

"Do you think I released the clams?"

The two disciples did not speak.

The Discipline and Training Hall only looks at evidence and judges the matter, not the person.

The shadow of being slandered for no reason in her past life came back to her mind. Jiang Liqian smiled sarcastically: "So you guys came to me instead of Senior Brother Ji? He doesn't believe me either."

The two disciples remained silent.

In Jiang Liqian's view, they were just silently agreeing.

In the forbidden area, Senior Brother Ji risked his life to protect her many times, and she thought they were friends who could trust each other.

It turned out that it was just her wishful thinking.

"I'm just an unknown foundation-building disciple. Do you think I have the ability to break the seal and release the snail?" Jiang Liqian's expression turned cold. A pair of misty eyes looked at them indifferently, and the golden bells on her temples swayed slightly. "Besides, why would I release such a monster? What's my purpose? What's in it for me? Since I released it, why did I risk my life to stop it and almost lose my life?

"Could it be that I am a sick fool?"

The two disciples felt that their junior sister, who had been very close to them just now, was suddenly thousands of feet away from them. The wind and snow from the sword peak wrapped around her body, like an indestructible armor, making it difficult to approach her.

They were defeated by her questioning, speechless and feeling extremely aggrieved.

One of the disciples, who was obviously younger, was even more impatient and immediately took a step forward excitedly: "Junior Sister Jiang, our Discipline Hall is a place that values ​​evidence. Without evidence, no matter how unreasonable the case is, we must act according to the law.

"And you misunderstood Senior Brother Ji. It's not that he didn't want to come to you in person. It was not us two disciples who should have come. Breaking the seal and releasing the slugs was an extremely serious offense. The elders wanted to put you in prison and interrogate you seriously. It was Senior Brother Ji who begged on his knees and vouched for your innocence. That's why we had the opportunity to bring you to the Discipline Hall to defend yourself. Senior Brother Ji is still kneeling there, accepting the punishment."

Jiang Liqian was stunned.

She didn't expect the whole thing to turn out like this.

The tragedy of her previous life had left her heart full of thorns. She dared not trust anyone, let alone believe that the other party would show kindness to her.

She had never thought... or rather, she didn't dare to think, didn't dare to hope, that Senior Brother Ji would plead for her.

She opened her mouth, a look of guilt on her face, and immediately raised her hands and bowed her head, apologized to the two disciples, and handed them the photo stone she had carried with her.

Inside are images of her training at Jianfeng, including where she has been and what she has done.

This is the best evidence that she is not a suspect.

"You... carry this with you?" The disciples of the Discipline Hall were stunned.

What cultivators hate most when practicing is someone watching them. They try not to use things like photo stones if possible, and I have never heard of anyone carrying them with them.

Jiang Li smiled lightly, her eyes dimmed for a moment, and she touched her nose a little embarrassedly: "It's better to be prepared than not. Look, it came in handy."

In fact, once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of ropes for ten years.

She didn't want to go through the situation in her previous life where she couldn't defend herself again.

"Indeed, with this, Junior Sister Jiang doesn't have to worry about this anymore. We will report this to the elders."

In the silent room, the flickering array disk was slowly rotating. Above the array disk, the young man who had been sleeping for a long time fluttered his eyelashes and gently opened his eyes.
