The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Lin Yitang spoke frankly: "Peak of the early stage of Foundation Establishment."

As soon as he finished speaking, the scene fell silent once again.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, mouths slightly agape, their faces filled with disbelief and shock.

Shi Muyue gasped dramatically, exclaiming, "Wh-what? Peak early Foundation Establishment stage? When did you break through?"

Lin Yitang recalled for a moment and said, "It was the day after I sparred with Mo Ziheng."

"So early?!" Everyone exclaimed in unison, their faces showing even greater shock.

"Back then, Mo Ziheng and Ye Qiuli hadn't broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage yet, right?" Qin Chong said in a trembling voice, "So... Lin Yitang, you are the first among our generation of new disciples to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage?"

This news came like a bolt from the blue, plunging everyone present into a state of complex emotions.

Based on the speed of his cultivation breakthroughs and his strength compared to others of the same level, Lin Yitang is undoubtedly the most talented disciple of this generation in the Taique Sect.

They were both proud to have such a talented friend and anxious about it.

In the past, they were all top performers in their respective fields, possessing outstanding talent and attracting much attention. However, Lin Yitang's appearance brought them unprecedented pressure.

Everyone secretly vowed to cultivate even harder and not let Lin Yitang leave them too far behind.

Just then, the camp gradually came into view ahead.

Shi Muyue, who had been standing next to Lin Yitang, suddenly stepped forward and said to Lin Yitang, "Yitang, since you've come all this way, why don't you come back to the camp with us? Our camp is one of the largest in the Central Enclosure, so it's not only safe but we can also train together."

Lin Yitang pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Is Junior Sister Ye Qiuli also at the camp?"

Shi Muyue paused for a moment, then shook her head and said, "Junior Sister Ye, she's not here. I heard she received some urgent mission and left the post a few days ago, and hasn't returned yet."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yitang frowned slightly.

She had planned to go directly to the camp to find Ye Qiuli, but unexpectedly, Ye Qiuli was not there.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "Since Junior Sister Ye is not here, then I will not go. I did come out to find her this time because I have important matters to discuss, so it would be better to find her as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Shi Muyue stopped trying to persuade him. Seeing the unconscious male cultivator in Lin Yitang's arms, she guessed that the matter might indeed be urgent, otherwise why would the male cultivator be unconscious?

However, Xu Xiping, who was standing to the side, said thoughtfully, "Actually, I think it would be better if we went to the camp and waited for a while."

Shi Muyue asked in confusion, "Why? Junior Sister Ye isn't here. Why should we go to the camp to wait for her?"

Xu Xiping snorted lightly, crossed her arms, and said with a hint of disdain, "I've been on Danfu Peak for many years and I know Ye Qiuli's temperament all too well. Whenever she makes a breakthrough or gets something good, she can't wait to run around telling everyone so the whole sect knows."

"When she was stationed at the camp, she would often boast about how many monsters she had killed. Every time she finished a kill, she would rush over to show off, as if she was afraid that others would not know."

"Besides, don't let her appearance fool you, a lot of people on Danfu Peak fawn over her. Those who want to curry favor with her praise her more effusively than opera singers. I'm about to throw up from watching it."

Everyone laughed upon hearing Xu Xiping's words. Zhao Qian also chuckled, "I never expected that Senior Sister Ye, known as the 'flower of Danfu Peak,' would have this side to her. You really can't judge a book by its cover."

Xu Xiping shrugged: "So, let's just relax and wait at the base. I guarantee Ye Qiuli will be back in a few days. When she finds out we're all here waiting for her, won't she be overjoyed?"

Zhao Qian replied with anticipation, "Then wouldn't we be able to witness Senior Sister Ye showing off in person? Just thinking about it is interesting! I really want to see what it's like."

"Maybe I can even get some secrets to breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage from Junior Sister Ye!" Qin Chong's eyes narrowed.

The group chatted amongst themselves, but the conversation wasn't particularly pleasant.

Amidst the laughter and chatter, Lin Yitang suddenly felt a sense of doubt and asked in surprise, "Why does it seem like...everyone doesn't have a very good impression of Ye Qiuli?"

Shi Muyue answered first: "That goes without saying, we naturally dislike people who don't get along with you."

Xu Xiping nodded in agreement: "That's right. Now that we've joined your alliance, we're well-informed. We've heard about all the conflicts you had with Ye Qiuli before."

“We all know what kind of person you are. How could you possibly do something as despicable as harming your fellow disciples? Since you are right, then Ye Qiuli is naturally wrong. Isn't it normal for us to hate her?”

Listening to everyone's words, Lin Yitang felt a mix of emotions and was deeply moved.

She never expected that before she had cleared her name, these newly acquainted friends would already choose to believe her.

She solemnly promised everyone, "Although I can't prove my innocence now, I assure you that I will one day prove it. I will never let my friends bear the stigma of 'harming their fellow disciples'."

Everyone smiled.

A quarter of an hour later, the six finally arrived at the encampment. This encampment was nestled amidst a mountain range, surrounded by rolling hills and shrouded in mist. A massive defensive array formed a protective barrier around the encampment, enveloping the entire area. It was larger than any of the defensive arrays Lin Yitang had seen before, indicating that the encampment was indeed extremely vast.

Outside the defensive formation, several disciples were patrolling back and forth, keeping watch and observing the surroundings.

Lin Yitang stepped forward and showed her disciple token to a disciple in charge.

The disciple in charge took the token, verified her identity, and respectfully returned it to Lin Yitang, saying, "So it's Junior Sister Lin. We heard you joined the front lines of the beast tide and came to support us. We are very grateful. You may enter the camp now."

As the disciple in charge spoke, he led Lin Yitang and the others through the defensive formation and into the interior of the encampment.

Along the way, Lin Yitang carefully observed the environment and layout of the base. She found that the base was well-managed, unlike the relatively chaotic smaller bases. Daily operations also followed rules and regulations, clearly under the control of the sect.

Shi Muyue leaned closer to Lin Yitang and said enthusiastically, "How is it? Isn't our base nice?"

Lin Yitang sincerely praised, "It's really good."

Shi Muyue smiled and said, "By the way, you also have to participate in the mission to annihilate the beast tide tomorrow. Although our cultivation is still shallow, the sect will not arrange too difficult tasks. Each of us just needs to kill a few newly entered third-tier demonic beasts."

Lin Yitang nodded. She was there to provide support, so naturally she would participate in the mission. She also needed to earn merit points.
