Chapter 248 Second Elder
Upon hearing the system's notification, Sima Ling's gaze towards Lin Zhao intensified, a look that greatly displeased Yun Fei standing nearby.
But Lin Zhao was so ugly, she felt it would be beneath her to target her, so she could only follow the two upstairs while saying sarcastically, "With this level of cultivation, you don't even care about your appearance? Trying to scare people?"
Lin Zhao was already disgusted by Sima Ling's subtle attempts to flirt with her, so hearing Yun Fei's voice was like hearing celestial music, instantly brightening her ears. She smiled at Yun Fei and said, "Are you envious?"
Before Yunfei could react, Lin Zhao switched places with her, making Yunfei walk between her and Sima Ling, saying, "If you're envious, you can walk here."
Yunfei glared at Lin Zhao angrily: "Who wants your fake kindness!"
Lin Zhao said, "Oh, so you're not jealous of me, you're jealous of Senior Brother Sima. You should have said so earlier."
As she spoke, Lin Zhao took Yun Fei's hand, which made Yun Fei scream angrily. She drew her peach blossom sword and was about to stab Lin Zhao.
Lin Zhao dodged instantly and quickly climbed towards the summit while dodging.
Sima Ling's face turned pale at the sight. Yun Fei, unable to catch Lin Zhao, ran back and shoved the Peach Blossom Sword into his hand, ordering with righteous indignation, "Senior brother, help me beat that woman to death!"
What does she take herself for?!
Sima Ling gripped the peach blossom sword, his handsome features slightly distorted, and couldn't help but ask the system within his body.
"Are you sure this stupid woman is head over heels in love with me after taking the infatuation pill, and that she would kill every woman who poses a threat to me for my sake?"
Why did he feel like Yunfei was just using him as a henchman?
The system said, "According to the detection, she does love you very much. The problem is that she doesn't think that the woman of destiny poses a threat."
Seeing that Sima Ling hadn't moved for a long time, Yun Fei couldn't help but narrow her eyes: "Senior Brother, the spirit stones you owe me..."
Sima Ling: "..."
I've never seen a woman who loves a man to death and still keeps such a clear account of everything!
Sima Ling cursed his bad luck, but dared not offend Yun Fei, so he could only smile and stuff the Peach Blossom Sword back into Yun Fei's hand.
"Fei'er, Miss Lin was just teasing you. Girls shouldn't fight like this."
Although Yunfei thought Sima Ling had said something ridiculous, she couldn't help but think that Sima Ling was the man she had fallen in love with at first sight, the man she had run away from home to come to this remote continent to get. She could only snort twice in resentment: "If it weren't for you, I would have made her pay. How dare she offend me."
Sima Ling smiled and patted Yunfei's head, finally managing to calm her down after much persuasion.
Lin Zhao had already met the rumored current leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, the Second Elder.
The Second Elder was completely different from what Lin Zhao had imagined. He had neither the calculating look of a typical ruler nor the otherworldly demeanor of a high-level cultivator.
He sat on a futon, and if it weren't for the Taoist robe that symbolized the elder of the Phoenix Medicine Sect, Lin Zhao would hardly believe that the thin, frail old man in front of him, who looked like he was about to die, was actually the leader of the Phoenix Medicine Sect.
"This person..." Granny Honghu's voice suddenly rang in Lin Zhao's mind: "has a hint of demonic energy."
The Second Elder opened his eyes, saw Lin Zhao, and smiled slightly: "You are Lin Hui?"
Lin Zhao tried his best to suppress the urge to flee, and pretended to be extremely honored: "This junior is indeed him."
The Second Elder sighed, "It's a pity that after I took Sima in, I didn't plan to take in any more disciples. Even Fei'er was entrusted to my junior brother." Lin Zhao remained silent.
"Child, besides me, who on Qingyun Peak do you wish to become a disciple of?"
Lin Zhao said, "This junior will obey the elder's instructions."
The Second Elder nodded in satisfaction: "My junior brother has almost finished taking on disciples. If you don't mind, I have another junior sister who has never taken on any disciples. If you become her disciple, you will be the chief disciple."
Lin Zhao knew that these junior brothers and sisters were probably the Second Elder's closest people. He wondered how much they had been involved in what happened back then, and whether they had any grudges against Elder Cheng.
A thought flashed through Lin Zhao's mind, and he nodded: "Thank you, Senior Uncle."
The Second Elder chuckled, appearing somewhat like a sage. He waved his hand, signaling the young disciple beside him to take Lin Zhao to find his junior sister.
After Lin Zhao and the young Taoist left, a faint red tinge appeared in the Second Elder's eyes, but it was barely noticeable and vanished in an instant.
Hearing footsteps at the entrance of the cave, the Second Elder didn't even look up before saying, "I can turn a blind eye to what you did to those disciples before, but this Lin Hui is exceptionally talented and may have the opportunity to make a name for herself in the Imperial Grand Competition. I will not allow you to lay a hand on her."
Upon hearing this, the man paused, then quickly knelt before the Second Elder. “Master is joking. I have never done anything to those junior brothers and sisters. They have simply lost their way and forgotten themselves.”
He didn't do anything; he just had the system strip the geniuses of those prodigies of their talents and, incidentally, slightly reverse their personalities.
Aren't they the ones who actually make those decisions that are detrimental to their own development?
How can you blame him if your own Dao heart is unstable?
Sima Ling paused for a moment, then said, "Moreover, there are still about two years until the Imperial Competition. She is currently only in the Heart-Stirring stage. No matter how extraordinary her talent is, her foundation is still too shallow. Compared to your disciple, what is she? Instead of placing your hopes on her, Master, you should focus on nurturing your last disciple, me."
Upon hearing this, the Second Elder lowered his eyelids.
The next moment, Sima Ling spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsed to the ground, unable to move.
"I used to listen to your sophistry because it was to my advantage. But now the Phoenix Medicine Sect needs a successor, and you are not qualified."
Sima Ling's eyes flashed with malice: "So, Master thinks that the newcomer Lin Hui is qualified?! She's just a mere girl in the early stages of infatuation!"
Just because she possesses good fortune and is a woman of good fortune, does that mean I am inferior to her?
He doesn't believe in luck at all!
Back in that world, Chen Luoluo was also a kind, innocent, self-reliant, and fortunate woman. But she was still reversed by herself and became a plunderer just like herself.
Just wait and see. He can turn Chen Luoluo into a useless piece of trash who only thinks about relying on men, and he can turn Lin Hui into a mediocre and cowardly piece of garbage.
The Second Elder ignored Sima Ling's anger, and only after he left the cave did a bloody smile appear on his lips.
"The evil thoughts from another world, and my good junior brother, let me see how far your people can fight. When you all lose, the fortune is mine, the talent is mine, and the supreme Ancestral Phoenix Technique is mine. At that time, what will the Phoenix Medicine Sect be, what will the Ancestral Phoenix Continent be? They will all be in my pocket."
As he spoke, he licked his lips, stood up, and the candlelight in the cave illuminated his hunched and thin shadow, making him appear like a jackal rising in the dim light.
"Human flesh and blood... are very nourishing."
