Chapter 63.1

Mount Taiwei.

After the disciples of the second branch and Lu Qingyuan of the third branch left one after another, Mount Taiwei fell into a brief peace. The problem was just that the peace didn’t last too long.

Due to Feng Shao’s departure, Qing Yangzi, the sect master of the Taiwei Sect, was deeply questioned by everyone.

Probably out of the intention to divert everyone’s attention, Ye Chen, who was originally sentenced by Qing Yangzi to face the wall for one year, ended his punishment of facing the wall after only one month.

Ye Chen, who was released from confinement, immediately had the feeling of being able to “keep the clouds open to see the moon.” When walking on the mountain path, his nose was almost raised to the sky.

Snort! Time will tell who the future belongs to!

The result of Feng Shao leaving the sect is clear proof!

The first thing Ye Chen did after his confinement was lifted was to return to the location of the third branch, which was on the shore of Baofeng Lake.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, to Ye Chen’s surprise, when he returned, what greeted him was not the warm hospitality of the master and the three senior sisters, but indifference.

The first person he met was Second Senior Sister Li Qingying. Li Qingying doesn’t have a high sense of presence in the third branch. Since she joined the master’s lineage, she has concentrated on practicing and rarely cared about other things.

From Ye Chen’s point of view, Li Qingying, this senior sister, is really a little ignorant of the world, and she is a bit dull in dealing with people, so Ye Chen has always disliked getting along with this senior sister.

However, since they have met, it is not appropriate not to say hello. So when Ye Chen saw Li Qingying, he waved his hands with enthusiasm.

“Second Senior Sister, I’m back!”

Li Qingying didn’t even look at him, and went straight to the practice room.

Ye Chen: “…”

Seeing Li Qingying’s back, Ye Chen couldn’t help but fall into deep thought, ‘Did I accidentally acquire the ability of invisibility?’

Li Qingying’s indifferent treatment didn’t make Ye Chen think too much.

After all, this second senior sister usually looks like everything has nothing to do with her, and she feels a bit invisible in her words and deeds.

Anyway, Ye Chen didn’t intend to have too much contact with this senior sister, so in the end, he just shrugged and moved on.

Not long after, Ye Chen came to Du Yuanxi’s residence. After the one-month confinement, as a disciple, naturally, he should greet his master immediately.

After Ye Chen knocked on Du Yuanxi’s door, he heard Du Yuanxi’s familiar voice from inside, “Come in!”

Ye Chen pushed open the door and said to Du Yuanxi with a smile, “Master, the disciple is back!”

Du Yuanxi sat on the main seat, her eyes seemed closed but not closed. After hearing Ye Chen’s words, Du Yuanxi frowned indiscernibly, but then she gave a faint “hmm.”

Ye Chen waited for a long time, but he didn’t hear Du Yuanxi’s next sentence so he couldn’t help but look a little puzzled, “Master, this disciple has returned from confinement!”

Du Yuanxi said “hmm” again, as if she still had no intention of speaking.

Ye Chen was baffled, thinking the master was in the process of cultivation, making it inconvenient to respond, so he could only say, “Master, I have been thinking about you and the senior sisters every day these days, but because I can’t go out, I can’t come back to meet the master and the senior sisters. I ask master to forgive me.”

Ye Chen’s tone was aggrieved as if he had been wronged by the heavens. Du Yuanxi frowned again, and asked in a flat tone, “Ye Chen, do you know why you were imprisoned this time?”

Ye Chen curled his lips, and said angrily, “Isn’t it because Feng Shao said bad things about the disciple? The disciple just killed a few insignificant people, but Feng Shao acted like he would never forgive the disciple. If not for that, the disciple would not be locked up.”

Du Yuanxi didn’t expect that even now, Ye Chen still didn’t feel that he did wrong, and her tone inevitably became a little cold.

“You think you are not wrong at all?”

Ye Chen thought about it and only felt that it was a bit unreasonable for him to do something to the elder sister at best.

However, since he became a disciple, the senior sister has taken good care of him, so Ye Chen feels that even if he did something wrong with the senior sister, with the eldest senior sister’s magnanimity, she would not take it to heart.

Thinking of this, Ye Chen said straightforwardly, “This disciple is a little reckless, but it can’t be all the fault of the disciple, right? If not, master, you can call the senior sister to see what the senior sister has to say!”

Du Yuanxi was furious, slapped the table, and shouted, “Ye Chen! You not only attacked your fellow disciples, but also killed two innocent people without authorization, and one of them was even a member of Yunjian Pavilion. You still think you are not wrong at all?! You actually have the nerve to let me call Biyun over!?”

It was the first time Ye Chen saw his master being so stern to him, and he couldn’t help but feel a little apprehensive.

He said nonchalantly, “It is indeed the disciple’s fault when he attacked the eldest senior sister. But the fault of killing those two people is not on the disciple. The Linglong Pavilion slandered the disciple for stealing, how can the disciple be insulted by them? Therefore, the disciple went to Linglong Pavilion to seek justice!”

Du Yuanxi laughed back angrily, “Seek justice? What kind of justice are you seeking? What did Linglong Pavilion slander you for?”

“Linglong Pavilion slandered the disciples for stealing one of their swords!”

“Where is that sword? Where is it now?”

Ye Chen said without hesitation, “In the hands of the disciple.”

The matter of Bifang Crane has already been settled, so it is useless for Ye Chen to play tricks, so it is better to admit it openly, at least it can give people a sense of righteousness.
