The plot of "Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic One Always Collapses" is incomplete.

Chu Mingyuan leaned against the bed, and when he looked up and saw who it was, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He forced a word, showing no intention of getting up to bow.

"Immortal Venerable Qingheng".

To be honest, he was somewhat surprised. What kind of person was Xie Linchen? To put it nicely, he was someone who didn't care about worldly affairs and was devoted to the sword.

To put it bluntly, he is an extremely self-centered, cold-hearted, and aloof person.

He asked himself, as a disciple of "Dawn Cliff," he had not had much interaction with Xie Linchen, yet now he came to see him first.

There must be something fishy about this.

"Was it Wen Yubai who caused your fall into the Cave of Ten Thousand Evils?" Xie Linchen asked bluntly.

Chu Mingyuan's expression shifted slightly, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes. He had only recently awakened and was unaware that the recording stone that captured that moment had already spread throughout the sect and was known to everyone.

The subtle details on his face said it all.

"Li Mingya, this was not his doing. You must clarify this to the entire sect and clear his name."

Xie Linchen's voice was cold, then he paused, his tone softening slightly.

"In return, I can grant you one request."

Although Chu Mingyuan hadn't figured out the current situation, Xie Linchen's offer was very tempting.

He needs to resolve the matter of the Xuantian Sect as soon as possible, and then take his senior brother and fly far away.

"Okay," he agreed.

Xie Linchen nodded in satisfaction, thinking that if Li Mingya was unwilling, he could think of another way.

For example, if someone is exposed as a spy for the Demonic Sect, a senior brother has no choice but to deal with it secretly in order to protect the sect's reputation.

This is a very good reason, and it makes perfect sense.

"Immortal Master, this disciple wishes to visit the ninth floor of the Library Pavilion."

Chu Mingyuan stated his conditions. He had previously learned that only the sect leader and the peak masters of each peak could go to the ninth floor of the library, where there was a high possibility that the key to the heavens could be found.

Xie Linchen looked at him scrutinizingly, his gaze sharp.

"Immortal Venerable, please don't misunderstand. This disciple has heard rumors that there is a sect's supreme sword technique there, and I yearn for it."

Whether Xie Linchen believed it or not, after a long while, he said calmly, "Okay."

With him watching over him, Chu Mingyuan couldn't do anything underhanded.

-

After waking up, Chu Mingyuan was summoned by the sect leader and the recording stone was played in front of him. His first reaction was, who recorded it?

At such close range, could it be that someone knew beforehand that his senior brother was going to poison him?

In this light, the two demonic cultivators he encountered that day were also suspicious, and Chu Mingyuan suspected that they were a lesson given to him by the Demon Lord.

That hateful demon lord.

But now was clearly not the time to think about that. His mind raced as he considered how to twist this established fact into something that would benefit his senior brother.

"Sect Master, please understand. When my senior brother drew his sword against me that day, it was not intentional. I was already under the control of a demonic cultivator at that time. My senior brother did not know this and mistakenly thought that I had fallen into demonic possession, so he took action to restrain me, accidentally forcing me into the Ten Thousand Evils Cave."

He explained urgently, "Afterwards, my senior brother also went down to save me and was injured. He didn't explain everything. He mistakenly thought that his disciple had fallen into demonic cultivation, which is why he was so conflicted and had no other choice."

The sect leader and elders fully accepted this explanation.

If Wen Yubai truly harbored malicious intentions, why would he subsequently risk his life to enter the Cave of Ten Thousand Evils?

It couldn't have been Li Mingya who did the hard pull, could it?

The sect leader waved his hand, instructing his disciple to summon Wen Yubai.

Before he had even spent a full month at the Repentance Cliff, Wen Yubai was taken out by his two disciples.

Upon entering the council hall, Wen Yubai immediately spotted Chu Mingyuan, and alarm bells went off in his mind.

Chu Mingyuan felt heartbroken looking at his senior brother, who had become even thinner.

The sect leader said with a gentle smile, "Yu Bai, if Mingya hadn't woken up, we would have almost caused you to suffer an injustice."

Elder Jin patted Wen Yubai on the shoulder heartily, "You rascal, you were so quiet on the way back, so you were keeping this on your mind all along."

Elder Ling of Purple Sword Peak shook his head and sighed, "Your Junior Brother Li is merely being controlled by a demonic cultivator. You're just being too concerned and have mistaken him for a demonic cultivator."

Elder Danfeng stroked his beard and concluded: "In the end, it is still the Demonic Sect that is to blame."

Chu Mingyuan comforted Wen Yubai, "Senior brother, there's no need to worry. Mingya is not a demonic cultivator."

After a few words, Wen Yubai roughly understood what was going on.

For a moment, he felt a sense of collapse. It was bad enough that the protagonist was not following his own plot, but now he was also turning black into white.

"Sect Master, it was me..." he opened his mouth to explain.

"Yu Bai".

Xie Linchen suddenly interrupted him, a hint of helplessness flashing in his usually indifferent eyes.

Why can't this silly apprentice understand?

Li Mingya's words not only preserved Wen Yubai's reputation, but also portrayed him as a noble figure who was willing to tarnish his own image to save his junior brother.

However, the disciple who was giving him a headache still wanted to deny it in public.

I'm in a real hurry.

Xie Linchen felt a sweet warmth in his heart. He knew that Wen Yubai was eager to be with him, but this matter still needed to be handled slowly.

Such a poor strategy should not be adopted.

"Yu Bai, as the sect's chief disciple, you should act cautiously and not be reckless."

He gave Wen Yubai a meaningful look.

For example, unless there is a foolproof plan, do not kill Chu Mingyuan and Li Mingya.

"Don't do it again next time. You're being punished with a year of seclusion to temper your temper."

The sect leader agreed, "Yu Bai, you really acted too impulsively. Why can't you discuss things with the sect? I know you care about your fellow disciples, but how could you be so reckless with your own safety? You are the future pillar of our sect."

Wen Yubai: ...

He finally understood that whatever he said was futile in the face of a group of people pretending to be blind.

As soon as Wen Yubai left the council hall, he was surrounded by his fellow disciples.

They chattered amongst themselves, saying things like, "I knew our senior brother wasn't that kind of person," and "Our senior brother really has his own reasons."

The noise was giving him a headache.

They were cheering, but Wen Yubai felt only a blur before her eyes.

He has already confessed, so why is he being exonerated?

Suddenly, a hand grabbed his wrist, and before he could react, he was pulled out of the crowd by a force.

When he came to his senses, he was already standing on a flying sword, his back pressed against someone's chest.

"Senior brother..."

The familiar voice made it clear who was behind it.

"Get out of here."

Wen Yubai tried to pull the man's hand away, but the person behind her held her waist even tighter.

He wasn't stupid; he had seen through Chu Mingyuan's feelings for him back in the Ten Thousand Evils Cave.

"You like me?" Wen Yubai sneered.

A muffled "hmm..." came from behind.

Chu Mingyuan rested his chin on his shoulder, greedily inhaling the fragrance emanating from his senior brother, and tightened his arms around him.

"That's disgusting."

The flying sword suddenly swayed, and Chu Mingyuan froze, feeling as if his heart had been squeezed tightly.

Even though he already knew that his senior brother disliked him, hearing those words with his own ears still hurt so much that he almost suffocated.

He landed on his sword in a secluded grove and pinned the man against a tree trunk.

His bloodshot eyes were filled with sadness and jealousy as he grabbed Wen Yubai's flailing hands.

"And what about Xie Linchen? Aren't you disgusted by your feelings for him?"

"Shut up!"

Wen Yubai frowned, having absolutely no liking for the eccentric Chu Mingyuan in front of her.

A shadow fell.

Chu Mingyuan suddenly lowered his head and bit down hard on the soft flesh of his neck.

Wen Yubai groaned in pain, feeling a warm, damp sensation.

"Isn't it a perfect match for a disgusting senior brother like me?"

His voice was hoarse and choked with suppressed sobs.
