Chapter 23: Same Situation (Seeking Follow-up Reading)
"Whoever is stronger is right..." Nan Chengwen murmured softly. Although Leng Zhengwu did not answer who was right or wrong, the last sentence seemed to be pointing at Nan Chengwen.

Jiang Xi is "stronger" than Ning Ruoxi, and has the favor of Luo Chuan and his senior brothers, so everyone also favors Jiang Xi.

Only Ning Ruoxi and Jiang Xi know what happened between them, and they have two different stories.

Anyone who can become a cultivator of a high level is no ordinary person. Take Dong Huaqing for example, he doesn't care who is right or wrong. Ning Ruoxi and Jiang Xi are only cultivators of the Qi Refining Realm. What kind of waves can they cause by making such a fuss?

His purpose in helping Ning Ruoxi was very simple, because Ning Ruoxi had saved his life.

The most important thing for a cultivator is to break the cause and effect, because no one can predict whether these causes and effects will become a thorn in one's mind when overcoming tribulations in the future.

It would be fine if Dong Huaqing didn't know what happened to Ning Ruoxi. But now that he knew, he might as well help her repay her favor. He doesn't need to take sides.

If there was a conflict between Luochuan and an elder in the sect, and they had to determine who was right and who was wrong, then Dong Huaqing would definitely make his position clear.

This is the differential treatment brought about by cultivation.

The conflicts between cultivators at lower levels are just playing house in the eyes of cultivators at higher levels. Luo Chuan feels that the conflict between Ning Ruoxi and Jiang Xi is nothing. To put it bluntly, he feels that Ning Ruoxi is being unreasonable.

And because of the influence of Jiang Xi's Tianji Pearl, Luo Chuan's perception of Ning Ruoxi will only get worse.

"Elder Leng, if the soul is damaged, is there any way to recover it?" Nan Chengwen asked another question.

Leng Zhengwu's eyes showed a slight fluctuation, "Oh? Could it be that Hua Qing was injured in the soul? I should have told him not to go deep into the Tianxuan Mountains alone..."

Nan Chengwen pricked up his ears and listened carefully, but Leng Zhengwu was also an experienced man, and he stopped talking at the crucial moment.

"If the soul is damaged, you need to find relevant natural treasures or elixirs to repair it. There are also special techniques for cultivating the soul that can restore the soul's injuries, but we don't have that in the Xiandao Sect."

"Thank you Elder Leng for clearing up my doubts. Master's soul is not injured. I am just asking casually."

Leng Zhengwu nodded, "That's good."

"Disciple retire!"

Nan Chengwen bowed to Leng Zhengwu and left the Sutra Library.

.......
Wanling Peak.

As expected, Jiang Xi succeeded again.

In front of Chen Boling, she used the Tianji Pearl to manipulate Xia Ran into telling the truth, intensifying Chen Boling's disgust towards Ning Ruoxi.

In the Hall of All Souls.

Luo Chuan summoned all his disciples. He glanced at everyone and found that one person seemed to be missing.

"Where is Xunyi?" Luochuan asked.

Fan Li bowed to Luo Chuan and said, "Master, our senior brother is in seclusion. Before he went into seclusion, he asked us not to disturb him."

Luo Chuan nodded and stopped pursuing the matter. "Bo Ling has come out of retreat, Xiao Ran has returned to the sect, and I wanted to get you all together to preach to you, but now it seems that we can't get everyone together."

"Master, I have something to say!" Chen Boling stood up, his face filled with indignation.

Seeing this, Xia Ran had a 70% guess in her mind that Chen Boling was probably doing this because of Ning Ruoxi.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Boling raised his voice and said, "Master, Ning Ruoxi said that she would cut off all ties with everyone in Wanling Peak, but she met with the third sister in private."

"Ning Ruoxi asked the third sister to stay away from the younger sister. This move is to sow discord." Hearing Ning Ruoxi's name, Luo Chuan's face became unusually calm, "Xiao Ran, is this true?"

Xia Ran nodded, then shook his head, "Master, it is true, but I think you were too harsh in punishing Junior Sister Ning..."

Chen Boling interrupted Xia Ran sharply, "Third Senior Sister, you have been bewitched by Ning Ruoxi."

"When Ning Ruoxi stole the spirit sword, wasn't she caught red-handed? Later, when she beat up Junior Sister, Second Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Brother saw it with their own eyes."

Xia Ran retorted: "As for stealing the spirit sword, we just found out that the spirit sword was in Junior Sister Ning's cave. What if someone framed Junior Sister Ning?"

"Also, I heard that the reason why Junior Sister Ning injured Junior Sister was because Junior Sister attacked Junior Sister Ning first, and Junior Sister Ning fought back in self-protection."

"How ridiculous! Who would have so much free time to frame Ning Ruoxi? What's the benefit of framing Ning Ruoxi?" Shangguan Jun also joined in the verbal battle.

"Third Senior Sister, you have been away from the sect for many years. You don't understand that Ning Ruoxi has changed. She has become jealous and can't stand seeing Junior Sister doing well."

Xia Ran smiled bitterly and didn't argue any more. Ning Ruoxi must have felt the same way at the time. Later, she simply didn't bother to explain so much.

Preconceived ideas will be used up no matter how much you explain. Trust has been compromised. Everyone trusts Jiang Xi instead of Ning Ruoxi.

Shangguan Jun and Chen Boling both sided with Jiang Xi, and Fan Li remained silent from beginning to end.

Luo Chuan finally spoke, "Ning Ruoxi is no longer a disciple of Wanling Peak. You don't need to negotiate with her in the future."

Gone? Gone just like that? Jiang Xi was not very satisfied with Luo Chuan's attitude. It seemed that she had to hurry up and improve her cultivation, otherwise the Tianji Pearl would not be able to affect Luo Chuan for a long time, which might cause disadvantages to her future plans.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense. Tell me what you don't understand about cultivation. I will help you solve your doubts today."

.......
In the back mountain of Tianxiang Peak.

Ning Ruoxi stood in front of a pool of water. She stretched out a finger and pointed it at the water surface. A layer of frost quickly spread outward with her finger as the center.

A layer of ice formed on the water surface, and it only spread about one meter before stopping. This was the limit of what Ning Ruoxi could freeze.

The techniques in the Qi Refining Period were very simple. Ning Ruoxi retracted her fingers and took out the spirit sword from the storage ring. She began to practice the sword technique in the Ice Spirit and Cold Soul Technique, called the Soul Sealing Sword Technique.

The magic sword danced in Ning Ruoxi's hand, and cold rays appeared on the sword. With one strike of the sword, several pieces of ice flew onto the cliff wall on the side.

When the dust cleared, many holes appeared on the cliff.

Ning Ruoxi was very satisfied with her sword. The sword skills she had practiced before did not have such power. At such a long distance, it was difficult to just leave a sword mark on the sword.

"This sword is good!" Nan Chengwen appeared on the tree nearby at some point.

He leaned against the tree trunk, drinking from a wine gourd.

Ning Ruoxi frowned slightly. She didn't like the feeling of being peeped at.

If only her master was here, she would definitely be able to find Nan Chengwen and remind herself in time.

"Senior Brother!" Ning Ruoxi saluted Nan Chengwen with the spirit sword on her back.

Nan Chengwen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me. Just continue practicing sword skills. I'll see if I can teach you a thing or two."

"Although our spiritual roots are different, our sword souls are the same. Sword cultivators must understand the sword soul in order to comprehend the power of the sword."
