The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 408 Jiang Wentian's Abnormality
Instantly, everyone's eyes were on Zhang Shuning.

She clenched her fists, feeling extremely frustrated.

But she knew in her heart that she couldn't really cripple Jiang Cen...

She didn't want to put her master in a difficult position.

So he could only swallow his bitterness and nod.

Since that's the case, I'll settle this score in private!

"Alright, since you agree, let's leave it at that."

Luo Hantian gave Liu Xingzhi a deep look. If Jiang Wentian didn't punish Jiang Cen, this junior brother would probably explode.

"Okay, everyone, go away!"

Luo Hantian waved his hand, dispersing the group of disciples.

He glanced at the disappointed Li Yang again; the two of them were too obviously up to their own agenda.

If Jiang Wentian insists on protecting his own, he might really be affected.

Luo Hantian was about to leave when he inadvertently caught a glimpse of Song Wanning's departing figure, and a glint flashed in his eyes.

Good heavens, it hasn't been long at all, and this junior disciple has already reached the late stage of Void Refinement...

As expected of the genius he had his eye on!
It seems their Ancient Cold Sect is about to produce another young genius comparable to Liu Xingzhi!
……

"Sister, is it really over like this?"

The golden sword snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, saying that Jiang Cen should be crippled and expelled from the sect.

"if not?"

Song Wanning chuckled softly, not particularly disappointed with the result.

"That's so unfair!"

The little golden sword muttered a dissatisfied remark.

Song Wanning looked up and tapped it, "What is fairness in this world?"

"Jiang Wentian worked hard to cultivate and reached the position of Supreme Elder. This is his reward!"

Who can always be reasonable and not biased towards relatives?
If it were me, I would also protect my own people.

"Hmph, then we'll train hard too, and then we'll beat all these people back!"

The little golden sword wrinkled its nose, feeling extremely disliked Jiang Cen.

Song Wanning ignored it and hurried back to Zhuiyun Peak.

Master is definitely still waiting for her good news!

……

On Xiaoyao Peak, Jiang Wentian stood under a tree.

Liu Xingzhi stood silently in front of him, prepared to receive criticism.

Jiang Wentian, however, simply gazed at the distant white clouds with an inscrutable expression, and only after a long while did he ask a question in a low voice.

"Xingzhi, do you think Jiang Cen... is still the same Jiang Cen?"

A seemingly plausible but ultimately ambiguous statement made Liu Xingzhi frown.

He thought about it carefully, first shaking his head, then nodding...

Jiang Wentian sighed again upon seeing this and waved to him.

"Go back, these things are compensation for that girl Zhang Shuning!"

He tossed a storage ring to Liu Xingzhi and then turned and entered the palace.

Liu Xingzhi glanced at his master's back, a look of surprise flashing across his mind.

Master...

Things are a little different now...

"Bam—"

The main hall door slammed shut, and Jiang Wentian's face suddenly darkened, his whole body filled with murderous intent.

After a long while, he finally composed himself and stepped into the house.

Jiang Cen sat on the bed, puffing out her cheeks. When she saw Jiang Wentian come in, she immediately turned her face away.

“Cen’er”.

Jiang Wentian called out and strode over.

"Don't be angry, Dad had no choice..."

"How could you, a Grand Elder, possibly have no solution?"

Jiang Cen snorted coldly, her face extremely pale. She felt that Jiang Wentian simply refused to protect her!
"What you did this time has given them leverage over you. How can I maintain order if I don't punish you?"

"Besides, it's only three years..."

For cultivators, three years is but a blink of an eye.

"By the time I come back in three years, it'll be too late!!! What do you know???"

Jiang Cen was so angry she almost cried.

Three years... a full three years...

By the time she gets back, Zhang Shuning and Liu Xingzhi will probably be together again!

Jiang Cen was truly reluctant to give up such an outstanding man; the colder he was, the stronger her desire to conquer him became.

She believed that her charm would eventually win over Liu Xingzhi.

But now, she's going to be away for three years, and anything can happen!
She vented her anger without paying any attention to Jiang Wentian's cold gaze behind her.

Suddenly, Jiang Wentian spoke up from behind.

"I remember you used to dislike Liu Xingzhi a lot, why have you suddenly changed your attitude?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cen froze for a moment, then immediately came to his senses and glared at Jiang Wentian.

“Father, Liu Xingzhi is so outstanding. I was blind in the past. Now that I see clearly, I must seize the opportunity as soon as possible.”

"Are we really just going to watch him get together with Zhang Shuning?"

She was well aware of her own soul, and Jiang Wentian couldn't see anything wrong with it.

This had already been proven when she first transmigrated into the book, so she wasn't afraid at all.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wentian frowned slightly, his expression showing considerable dissatisfaction.

"Why are you so sure Zhang Shuning will end up with Xingzhi? They're master and disciple..."

The master and disciple being together is a matter of principle, and Xingzhi understands that he would never do such a thing.

Moreover, Xingzhi didn't treat Zhang Shuning any differently...

But Jiang Cen insisted that the two of them would be together.

"Oh, Dad, just leave it at that. Would your daughter lie to you?!"

Jiang Cen felt a little guilty after being questioned and didn't dare to cause any more trouble.

She feared that the more she said, the more she would expose, and then it wouldn't just be a matter of being punished.

"Father, the desert is fraught with danger. Are you really comfortable letting your daughter go there?"

She looked at Jiang Wentian with red eyes, then threw herself into his arms and cried pitifully.

They were trying to use this method to make Jiang Wentian change his mind and cancel his decision.

Jiang Wentian raised his hand and gently stroked her head, but his gaze seemed to penetrate her and look into the depths of her being.

"The matter is settled and cannot be changed."

"But don't worry, Dad will go with you... I will never let you get hurt by anyone."

"Because you are the only treasure she left me..."

He clenched one hand tightly, closed his eyes, and concealed the anger in his heart.

He will soon be able to find out the truth.

……

"Wan Ning, what kind of freak are you?!"

Qin Ming shouted, his mouth agape as he looked at Song Wanning's cultivation level.

Feng Xue and Cang Yang also stared at Song Wan Ning with horrified expressions.

If this pace continues, won't their senior brothers be overtaken very soon?
I thought my junior sister was weird enough, but this one is even weirder!
"I just advanced by sheer luck."

Song Wanning smiled and then took out the return gifts she had prepared and gave them to her senior uncles.

She obtained all of these from the secret realm. She had received a gift from the visitor and had been thinking of returning the favor, and now was the perfect time.

"Hiss, how can we accept your things!"

Qin Ming said he wouldn't take it, but his actions were faster than anyone else's.

The other two smiled and happily accepted them as well.

Their junior apprentice was filial to them, which made them happy.

"Senior Uncle, I will be practicing alchemy from now on. Unless it is absolutely necessary, please do not let anyone disturb me."
