After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

"Now everyone in the sect is saying that it was Cheng Huang who took the initiative to approach Senior Sister Chu, which is why Senior Sister Chu was able to successfully form a contract with a primordial spirit beast like Cheng Huang in such a short time."

“But you, me, and Senior Brother Xiao Xuancheng all know that you were the one who discovered Cheng Huang first.”

Mu Yurou's gentle tone reminded Jiang Yuzhe of the scene in the Myriad Spirits Secret Realm.

"I was indeed the first to discover Chenghuang, but forming a bond isn't always possible..."

"Senior brother, if you haven't even tried, then you're sure you won't succeed in forming the bond on your own?"

Jiang Yuzhe's slightly hesitant words were interrupted by Mu Yurou.

"If you hadn't fallen into the water that day, Chenghuang might be your contracted spirit beast now."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuzhe's body twitched slightly, and her breathing quickened.

"I've been online all this time. That day, Senior Sister Chu clearly had the ability to save you, so why did she choose to form a pact with Cheng Huang first?"

"No, Senior Sister isn't that kind of person."

Jiang Yuzhe shook his head in denial, but his pursed lips betrayed his true thoughts.

Mu Yurou walked around to sit in front of Jiang Yuzhe, placed her hands on Jiang Yuzhe's shoulders, and looked into his eyes.

"At first, I also felt that I shouldn't think of Senior Sister Chu like that, but ever since we came out of the Myriad Spirits Secret Realm, Senior Sister Chu has disappeared without a trace."

"Senior brother, you were injured so badly while forming the bond with Chenghuang, I have to think more about you."

"What if Senior Sister Chu's love for you turned to hatred, and she deliberately formed a pact with Cheng Huang to control you, but we discovered it, which is why she disappeared..."

This time, Jiang Yuzhe didn't refute anymore. Instead, he fell silent and asked in a hoarse voice after a long while.

Do you really think so?

Looking at Jiang Yuzhe, who was still hanging his head, Mu Yurou's lips curled up slightly.

“It’s not just me, Senior Brother Xiao thinks so too.”

“If my senior brother wants to get his things back, I will definitely stand up and testify.”

She put her arms around Jiang Yuzhe's shoulders and gently patted his back, as if she were coaxing a child.

"That Chenghuang should have belonged to my senior brother..."

........................................

Several days later, at the main peak of Qingyun.

Outside the Qingyun Hall, Xiao Xuancheng and Mu Yurou stood side by side, with Jiang Yuzhe standing behind them.

Behind them stood dozens of elite disciples, almost all of whom had remained in the sect.

The disciples all looked bewildered, not knowing why the sect leader had gathered them here.

Inside the Qingyun Hall directly in front of them, the sect leader and many elders were having a heated discussion.

"Why are you making such a big fuss?"

"Could it be about the sect competition? But haven't all the related matters been proceeding smoothly?"

"I have a feeling that Xiao Xuancheng is leading the charge, and it's related to Xiaoyao Peak again."

"Although Xiaoyao Peak has many things to do, what could possibly cause such a commotion? With so many elders, it would be enough to expel an elite disciple from the sect."

Upon hearing this, the elite disciples who had been whispering exchanged glances, a suspicion gradually forming in their minds.

Zhao Jingren stood in the crowd, coldly looking at Xiao Xuancheng standing at the front, his heart sinking.

He had a general idea of ​​what it was about and silently prayed that Chu Luobai would appear soon.

If Chu Luobai himself is not present, it will be difficult for others to prove his innocence.

After a long discussion inside the hall, an elder finally came out.

"Tian Huachi, what's that old geezer doing out here?"

Zhao Jingren looked at the elder standing at the door, whose hair and beard were all white, and secretly thought that something was wrong.

Tian Huachi is one of the elders of the Qingyun Sword Sect responsible for guarding the Sword Forest, and can be considered one of Gao Hong's right-hand men, the acting sect leader.

The mere appearance of this person signifies that Gao Hong is about to hide behind the scenes and do some inhumane things.

As expected, as soon as Tian Huachi came out, he asked loudly with a gloomy face.

"You are all elite disciples of my Qingyun Sword Sect, the younger generation of my sect."

"Now I ask you, does any of you know the whereabouts of that rebellious disciple Chu Luobai who violated the sect rules?"

These words caused an uproar among the disciples below, but the three people on Xiao Xuancheng's side remained expressionless.

It seems they had anticipated this situation.

Zhao Jingren's mood grew even heavier. Just as he had thought, they were after Chu Luobai.

"The traitor Chu Luobai violated the sect rules by forcibly seizing opportunities from others in the Myriad Spirits Secret Realm, and has now fled and his whereabouts are unknown..."

Before Tian Huachi could finish speaking, a clear female voice came from afar.

"Elder Tian, ​​it's been a long time. Why are you out of Sword Forest? Is something urgent?"

Chu Luobai strode forward at an extremely fast pace, his white robes fluttering like drifting clouds across the sky.

Qiu Lin followed closely behind Chu Luobai. The moment his gaze met Jiang Yuzhe's, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

"Isn't today the day for the elite disciples' meeting?"

Looking around, Chu Luobai feigned surprise.

"Why was there a last-minute meeting? No one even notified me. I don't remember when I was removed from the elite disciples."

The only disciple who can be called an elite is someone who is not exceptionally skilled in cultivation and quick-witted.

After listening to Tian Huachi and Chu Luobai's words, and combining them with the various rumors circulating in the sect recently.

They already had a guess as to what the purpose of today's inexplicable meeting was.

"Hmph, Chu Luobai, I thought you wouldn't dare to come."

Tian Huachi's expression darkened, and he waved to the elite disciples below.

"Men, seize the traitor Chu Luobai!"

Among the elite disciples, several who were on good terms with Tian Huachi began to stir with ambition.

Chu Luobai coldly swept his gaze over these people, and instantly released the oppressive aura of the Dao Integration Realm.

In an instant, those restless disciples dared not make any further moves.

"Elder Tian, ​​if I remember correctly, your duty is to guard the Sword Forest."

“If a disciple makes a mistake and needs to be punished, it should be the responsibility of the Enforcement Elder.”

"The elders of the Sword Sect each have their own duties. What you are doing is probably against the sect's rules, isn't it?"

Chu Luobai withdrew his gaze, raised his eyes to look at Tian Huachi standing at the entrance of the main hall, and said coldly.

"Or perhaps, without my knowledge, not only was I, Chu Luobai, stripped of my status as an elite disciple, but even my master, the Immortal Lord Xiaoyao, was stripped of his status as an enforcement elder?"

"Middle stage of Hedao?"

Tian Huachi narrowed his eyes slightly. He hadn't expected Chu Luobai to advance again in such a short time.

His gaze swept over the disciples who had been frightened by the oppressive aura and slunk back into their ranks, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly.

"What a useless bunch. They always brag about themselves, but when it really matters, not one of them is of any use."
