The villain, Xiao Nanliang, caused the female lead excruciating pain.

Ye Feng's tone was respectful on the surface, but anyone could tell that he was very unhappy with Jiang Ying.

It's probably because she revealed the theft of the sect leader's token.

If Jiang Ying hadn't spoken up, Ye Feng and Yue Siyi would never have been discovered.

"Did you misunderstand something?"

Jiang Ying tilted her head, looking at her like she was an idiot.

“Now that you’ve done something suspicious, is it wrong for me to ask you to prove your innocence? And do you think I’m so idle that I’m targeting a Foundation Establishment disciple like you? Even if I don’t ask for a search, do you think you can escape this? In that case, I’ll stop talking from now on. You can handle this yourselves, just remember to give my Weapon Peak an explanation.”

call……

Su Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, I knew when to stop.

If this continues, Ye Feng, unless he's completely stupid, will eventually figure out that she's framing him.

Jiang Ying returned to her seat and secretly gave Su Qi a smug look.

Su Qi decisively looked away, refusing to have any connection with her in order to avoid being exposed.

The most boisterous husky shut its mouth, and the hall fell silent for a moment as everyone looked at each other.

Although Ye Feng was just a disciple, it was best not to do the thankless and arduous task of offending others as a villain.

Moreover, judging from Ye Feng's attitude, he'll seize on anyone who steps forward to request a search.

If I can't find it, he'll demand I apologize in public, which would be incredibly embarrassing.

So, everyone turned to look at Lao Yue.

This kind of thing should have been decided by him, the sect leader, and... he had already lost all face.

When he noticed everyone looking at him, Lao Yue's lips twitched, and he glanced at Ye Feng.

He thought to himself that he wouldn't make his master apologize to him.

So he cleared his throat and spoke.

"Mu Feng, it is true that you did something wrong and aroused suspicion. For the sake of the sect, please cooperate."

"I can consider the sect's interests, but if we can't find it, can the sect apologize to me?"

Well, they're not asking you, their master, to apologize, but they're asking the sect to apologize.

Who can represent the sect?

Of course, it's the sect leader!

The elders below were already trying not to laugh.

The rigid Third Elder and the irritable Fifth Elder were both relieved that they hadn't taken this rebellious disciple into their ranks.

Old Yue's face immediately darkened.

"Mu Feng! Don't forget, I haven't settled accounts with you yet for instigating Senior Sister to steal the Sect Master's token!"

The implication is that I haven't even settled accounts with you yet, so what right do you have to demand an apology from me?

Su Qi also couldn't understand the Chosen One's way of thinking.

Although Jiang Ying framed you, your own behavior is indeed suspicious.

Of all those present, whose cultivation level is not higher than yours?

In the cultivation world where the strong are respected, everyone is already being very generous by giving you a chance to prove your innocence.

In any other place, for inciting your fellow disciples to steal the sect leader's token, you would be slapped to death.

Where do they get the audacity to demand an apology from others?

What's the value of the dignity of the weak?

"Daddy..."

"Shut up!"

Yue Siyi was about to speak when she was stopped.

Old Yue's aura surged, and the pressure of a Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage was already pressing down on Ye Feng.

"If you still don't know what's good for you, then I'll have to settle the matter of the token with you first."

With a flick of his sleeve, he formed a claw with his fingers, and terrifying spiritual power was brewing within it.

Old Yue was clearly angry.

First, Ruobingli directly challenged his authority as the sect leader.

Then Jiang Ying exposed his past misdeeds, making him lose all face.

Now, his daughter, unaware of what kind of spell Ye Feng, that traitorous disciple, has cast on her, is actually helping him steal the sect leader's token.

He was in the wrong first, yet he still tried to argue his way out of it. Why doesn't Ye Feng, this rebellious disciple, give me any face?

If Bingli felt she couldn't win, she would just endure it!

Jiang Ying held the lifeline of the Qingyun Sect in his hands, and he tolerated it!

But what makes you, a mere disciple, so special?

Feeling the heavy weight of authority pressing down on his shoulders, Ye Feng's knees buckled and he almost knelt down.

If it were anyone else, Ye Feng might have been able to endure it for a while and things would be calm, but Yue Chongshan, his enemy, would never make him submit.

Not only did he refuse to kneel, but he also stared at Old Yue with stubborn eyes, ignoring all the persuasion from the old man in his mind.

Old Yue laughed out loud, a laugh born of anger.

He really couldn't understand what this rebellious disciple was so stubborn about.

"Old Ji, why do you think he absolutely refuses to let us search, and even bites anyone he can get his hands on, not even sparing his own master? Could it be that he has a guilty conscience?"

Jiang Ying whispered something in the Third Elder's ear.

Although she seemed to be lowering her voice, it had actually reached everyone's ears clearly.

This made everyone look at Ye Feng with even more suspicion.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for taking action against you!"

Old Yue, with a gloomy face, moved closer to Ye Feng step by step.

Just as he was about to strike out with his palm, Yue Siyi suddenly stepped in and blocked the way, pleading with tears streaming down her face.

"Father, I have already proven that I was with Junior Brother Mufeng all night. Isn't that enough to prove his innocence? Why are you still pressing me so hard?"

She had barely finished speaking when someone below spoke up before Lao Yue could even reply.

"Old Ji, you can tell their relationship isn't simple at all. Do you think it's reliable for someone close to them to testify? How about next time I go to another sect's treasure vault, and you can provide an alibi for me, and we'll split the spoils fifty-fifty?"

When they noticed that everyone's eyes were on them, Ye Feng and Yue Siyi's eyes were practically spitting fire.

The Third Elder's lips twitched.

Didn't you say you weren't going to talk?

"Hey, let them do their thing, let's discuss it privately!"

Black lines appeared on everyone's foreheads simultaneously.

You're practically being blatant; is this what you call a discussion?

"Siyi, if you don't move aside, don't blame your father for being heartless."

"Daddy..."

Before she could finish speaking, Old Yue's eyes turned cold, and he was about to unleash the palm strike he had been preparing for.

"stop!"

Ye Feng shouted to stop him. Our chosen one stepped forward and domineeringly pulled the female lead into his arms, biting his lip in humiliation.

"It's just a search, right? I'll agree!"

As he spoke, he took off the storage ring in his hand and threw it at Yue Chongshan.

Old Yue then dispersed his spiritual power to take the ring, and gestured to his two attendants to search Ye Feng's room before beginning to examine the storage ring in public.

As he watched his belongings being thrown to the ground one by one, Ye Feng could no longer contain his humiliation and anger.

"I'm sorry, Junior Brother Ye... I've dragged you into this."

Yue Siyi cried very sadly, burying her head in Ye Feng's arms, her delicate body trembling incessantly.

The two of them looked just like a young couple being bullied by a powerful force.

"Those who are innocent will clear themselves of any wrongdoing. I just hope that none of you here will regret this."

Faced with the threat, all the elders looked puzzled.

First of all, I don't know where he got his confidence from. Secondly, there were several of them, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end. How did they get hated along with him?

Soon, everything in Ye Feng's storage ring was emptied out. There were many strange and unusual things inside, but the stolen underwear was nowhere to be found.

This made Ye Feng even more arrogant.

"Hmph, the higher-ups of Qingyun Sect have joined forces to bully a newly initiated disciple. I'd like to see who will dare to join such a sect in the future."
