Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

She was someone who didn't want to owe anything; she repaid kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Only in this way could she be free and live without being bound.

This is her dream; she wants to be free.

So she discarded the Lei Yu Sect's Daoist robes and gave them brand new ones, exactly the same as the originals.

So she cut off her own arm, using her blood and flesh to repay Lei Yuzong for his years of teaching.

So she placed the magical artifact in front of her.

loudly proclaim—

"I owe none of you anything. If I'm leaving, I'll leave cleanly, leaving nothing behind! I said I'm not a member of your Thunder Feather Sect, and that means I'm not a member of your Thunder Feather Sect!"

"My body, my soul, my memories, everything about me will not bear any mark of your Thunder Feather Sect!"

"And you, Zhong Tianying!!"

Pointing at Zhang Ruoxue's angry gaze, the arrogant Zhong Tianying at the foot of the mountain suddenly felt a pang of fear.

It was something called fear. Even though he was many times stronger than Zhang Ruoxue, he still felt genuine fear.

He took a step back in fear, his once proud face now marked with streaks of death.

Why...why is he afraid?

He didn't know, and neither did anyone else.

All they saw was Zhang Ruoxue on the mountaintop, shouting in a voice that resounded through the sky.

"You ask me why I'm carrying a magical artifact from the Thunder Feather Sect? I'll tell you right now!"

With a flick of her wrist, she sent the magical artifact hurtling towards Zhong Tianying like a shooting star.

However, she did not aim at Zhong Tianying, but at the disciple at Zhong Tianying's feet. This magical artifact, which had accompanied Zhang Ruoxue for countless years, was thus severed from her.

mountain top.

Zhang Ruoxue's left arm was bleeding profusely, but she did not try to stop the bleeding, even though she could use her spiritual energy to temporarily slow the bleeding.

the reason is simple--

She took a deep breath, and the scene before her eyes gradually became hazy and dreamlike; she felt her consciousness slowly fading away...

She knew she was about to faint.

But the matter wasn't finished yet, so how could she just give up?

And so, this woman, this woman with outstanding appearance and unique personality, spoke again.

The sound reverberated through the heavens.

"Zhong Tianying! You still ask me why I'm practicing the Thunder Feather Sect's techniques!"

"I'm telling you today, I won't stoop to practicing this lousy cultivation technique!!"

After speaking.

Her internal meridians tightened instantly, and the swirling spiritual energy suddenly reversed course, surging towards her spiritual root.

Bang bang bang!

A thick mist of blood gushed out from Zhang Ruoxue's body.

Everyone from Lei Yu Sect stared wide-eyed, no one daring to believe what they were seeing.

He was a cultivator at the peak of the Profound Gate stage. With a little effort, he would definitely be able to reach the Spirit Platform stage in the future, and might even be able to break through to the Transformation Peak, thus securing a place in the Thunder Feather Sect.

But she... ruined her own cultivation technique...

All her cultivation techniques practiced at the Thunder Feather Sect were destroyed... all her cultivation was completely dissipated, leaving not a trace.

why?

Everyone was wondering why...

This is a cultivation technique she has practiced for several years. Why would she just abandon it like that?

Everyone harbors this question in their hearts, but no one asks it, or rather, they dare not ask it.

They didn't even dare to look Zhang Ruoxue in the eye, those unwavering eyes that hadn't wavered even at this point.

"Now you understand, right?"

With her cultivation completely depleted and her face contorted in a disheveled state, Zhang Ruoxue asked a question.

No one answered her.

Zhong Tianying stood frozen in place, like a wooden statue, staring blankly at Zhang Ruoxue, unable to utter a single word.

"Heh, as expected, a piece of trash..."

As if she had anticipated this, Zhang Ruoxue gave a cold laugh and slowly closed her eyes.

She could no longer support her body. Having lost all her cultivation, she was now just an ordinary person. In addition, she had severed her own arm and was bleeding heavily, so she was already in a daze.

It's a miracle that they've made it this far.

She slowly closed her eyes...

Zhang Ruoxue never intended to give up her virginity from the very beginning. She wanted to protect the people in the courtyard behind her, but she was unwilling to exchange her virginity for it.

She would rather risk her life to protect the people behind her... because if she died, Lei Yuzong would not be able to get married. In front of such a large audience, Lei Yuzong would definitely lose face. They would be busy dealing with the issue of face, so they wouldn't attack Ye Yuchan and the others, right?

No, it probably still will, but at least it gave Yu Chan and the others some time to escape...

Once they escape Jinglin City, Lei Yuzong won't continue the pursuit, right? After all, he's already dead, so even if he catches them, it won't make a difference.

Never mind, let's leave it at that...

At least I died cleanly... didn't I?

"Hey, hey, please spare me..."

Just as this thought crossed my mind, an untimely voice rang out.

It was a voice that sounded disgusted and annoyed, as if it were something very troublesome.

--who?

"This is the entrance to our college. Fighting in groups at the school gate will get you punished."

The man spoke strangely as he walked to Zhang Ruoxue's side, who had fainted on the ground.

"And the fact that my student, no, my future student, was seriously injured is even worse... Have you considered how I feel after all the hard work of cleaning the academy? With so much blood here, what if it frightens the children?"

It was a man dressed in white, spouting incoherent nonsense, who stretched out his hand and casually cast a spell at Zhang Ruoxue.

In an instant, the bleeding from her left arm stopped, and the tingling sensation numbed her consciousness, causing her already somewhat drowsy mind to drift into a dream.

Seeing that Zhang Ruoxue was safe and sound, the man gave Jiang Yuetian behind him a wink. The latter immediately understood, let go of her hand, and let Ye Yuchan, who had been struggling and crying her eyes out, rush out.

The man glanced at Ye Yuchan, who was carrying Zhang Ruoxue, smiled faintly, and turned back.

In an instant, everyone at the foot of the mountain, including the five branch patriarchs of the Gong family, felt as if they had fallen into an endless dark vortex, and a terrifying coldness, like ten thousand years of ice, swept over them from head to toe.

"So, all you kids who're going to have a brawl—"

The Dean of Yuntian Academy...

"Are you ready to face disciplinary action?"

Yunping revealed a cruel smile.

70. Yunping

Yunping's words brought the people at the foot of the mountain back to their senses from the shock.

They were astonished beyond words by Zhang Ruoxue's actions, but in the end, it was just astonishment.

They admired Zhang Ruoxue's courage, but thought her behavior was extremely foolish.

The reason is simple: in this world of cultivation, strength is paramount and power is supreme. He could have rivaled the chief disciple of the Thunder Feather Sect and risen to the top like a phoenix, but instead, he insisted on being strong and remained a mediocre sparrow.

That's what everyone thought after they came to their senses.

Zhang Ruoxue's courage is commendable, but her behavior is foolish!

And this person who jumped out and claimed to be the dean of Yuntian Academy is even more foolish!

Zhong Tianying also recovered from his fear and shock. He regained his usual arrogance and domineering attitude, trying to cover up the cowardice he had shown when Zhang Ruoxue questioned him and he was speechless.

His gaze was fixed on Yun Ping, and a plan immediately formed in his mind.

"So you're the one who kidnapped my junior sister Zhang and bewitched her?!"

"Bewitched?" Yun Ping frowned upon hearing this. "You're saying I bewitched Zhang Ruoxue's mind?"

"If it weren't for that, how could my junior sister Zhang have made such a mistake!"

Zhong Tianying's voice resounded throughout the venue, startling everyone else present.

Yup!

Zhang Ruoxue was just an unknown disciple. Where did she get the courage to fight against the entire Lei Yu Sect all by herself?

But what if someone bewitches her mind?

After Zhong Tianying said that, everyone pointed the finger at Yun Ping, believing that he had used some underhanded means to bewitch Zhang Ruoxue and cause her to break with Lei Yuzong.

Thinking about it this way, things become clearer—and they align more closely with their values.

"Hmph, my junior sister Zhang is clever and obedient. Although she has a bit of a temper, she is very respectful to us senior brothers. How could she talk nonsense like this today, spewing filthy and vulgar curses? It must be a filthy and despicable person like you who has bewitched my junior sister Zhang!"

Yun Ping looked at Zhong Tianying with interest. "You say I bewitched her, do you have any evidence?"

"Evidence? What need is there for evidence?" Zhong Tianying turned around and looked at the five branch patriarchs of the Gong family. "Five Gong family patriarchs, I would like to ask you, was it this person who crippled your Gong family's descendants in Tianbei Valley a few days ago?"

"I can testify to this!"

Before the Gong family patriarch could answer, the Valley Master of Tianbei Valley jumped out.

"On the day I was recruiting new students at the same time as the Three Heavens Academy, the descendant of the Gong family was injured by this kid. It's just a pity that he used some underhanded tricks at the time, and even I didn't have time to react before he used evil magic to cripple the Gong family descendant's cultivation. Afterwards, we wanted to give chase, but he got away. It's really..."

After saying that, he let out a long sigh, looking very regretful.

Upon hearing this, Yunping almost burst out laughing.
