Chang'er Dingguang Immortal was completely unaware that his performance had fallen into Sect Master Tongtian's eyes. What was once a sliver of doubt had now become certainty.

And his crime was gradually being confirmed.

A traitor...

This was the title he was now recognized with.

If it weren't for Lin Chuan's existence, he would have already been dealt with by Sect Master Tongtian at this very moment.

However...

This could perhaps be considered a fortunate thing for him.

Breakthrough?

Wasn't that incredibly easy!

Lin Chuan had never thought of it as a difficult matter.

The accumulated cultivation rewards were already countless, so much so that he didn't even want to pay them much attention.

Of course, that was because the rewards were too frequent, perhaps the most inferior kind of reward.

Hmm~

A reward of 1000 years of cultivation was given at the slightest provocation.

For others, this would be a difficult and tedious period of time, but for him, it held almost no significance.

Causing trouble, that was his specialty.

Feeling more and more disciples of the Sect of Interception appearing around him, a smile gradually spread across his lips.

No one noticed his change.

[Heh! If I stir up another big incident right now, will I be expelled directly?]

[No matter how powerful Sect Master Tongtian, that old geezer, is, he ultimately cannot defy the rules. If he doesn't even follow the rules, how can he command respect then?]

Lin Chuan secretly rejoiced.

Indeed, when he broke through in full view of everyone, it would surely shock many.

But this was not his ultimate goal.

His goal was not only to get revenge but also to cause a major incident. At the very least, it would allow him to leave Golden Ao Island as soon as possible.

Time was becoming increasingly tight.

He did not want to stay in this place of turmoil.

Sect Master Tongtian's expression was somewhat strange.

"Is this kid cursing me or praising me?"

Upon hearing Lin Chuan mention "powerful," Sect Master Tongtian couldn't help but feel a surge of joy.

Good heavens!

After being complained about for so long, even a single word of praise occasionally felt like actual praise.

However, Sect Master Tongtian was also watching with anticipation at this moment, knowing full well that Lin Chuan's restless heart had not settled down.

But no matter what...

Sect Master Tongtian believed he could suppress anything!

In an instant.

A figure gradually emerged.

Daoist Duobao appeared. His sudden appearance plunged the scene into silence.

After all, Daoist Duobao was the chief disciple. His appearance at this moment put immense pressure on most people.

Therefore.

A hush fell over the scene.

"G-Great... Great Senior Brother is here!"

"I didn't expect this to alarm Great Senior Brother. It seems this matter is indeed not small!"

"Perhaps it's because Lin Chuan is too arrogant and ignorant, thinking he can break through whenever he wants. Moreover, he even boasted that Grand Unity Golden Immortals are nothing special."

"Perhaps Great Senior Brother is here to teach him a lesson?"

Numerous discussions arose.

Many people were whispering amongst themselves. Some genuinely hoped that Daoist Duobao would teach Lin Chuan a lesson, as they found his words too arrogant and ignorant.

Who didn't know that Grand Unity Golden Immortal was a hurdle?

How could one break through so easily?

Moreover...

Lin Chuan not only luckily became a personal disciple, but he was also making such wild claims at this time. For most people, this would be an extremely unacceptable matter.

If he had been more humble, he would have received considerable support from many.

But when unfamiliar people suddenly heard his wild claims, they naturally felt their good impression decrease.

And immediately felt extreme aversion.

Not everyone was like Zhao Gongming, who was full of admiration and gratitude towards Lin Chuan.

Furthermore, they genuinely trusted and believed in him from the bottom of their hearts, without a single waver. After all, they had cultivated together for a few days.

They clearly knew that Lin Chuan was definitely not as arrogant as others imagined.

That was due to his self-confidence.

That was why he made these remarks.

As the discussions among the crowd arose, Daoist Duobao looked at Lin Chuan with a complex expression.

As the chief disciple, his strength was already not to be underestimated. At this moment, he clearly heard the surrounding discussions.

Looking at Lin Chuan, although he had never had too many opinions about him, even about his master suddenly taking in such a junior disciple.

He believed that this was his master's acknowledgment.

But now that it had become such a huge fuss, he had no choice but to step forward. However, he sensed a strange fluctuation from Lin Chuan.

He was clearly cultivating, and at this very moment, he might even be at a critical juncture.

It was not good for him to interrupt easily.

If he interrupted, no one would know what kind of consequences would arise.

Therefore.

He just watched quietly.

"I truly didn't expect to attract so much attention."

"I've only just become a personal disciple not long ago, and I'm already getting so much attention. It's truly unexpected. And in just this short period, several such sensational events have already occurred."

Daoist Duobao was filled with helplessness.

He didn't have too many opinions either. After all, his junior disciple was still his junior disciple, and there were no conflicts of interest between them.

It was just that he never expected this junior disciple to be so troublesome.

It hadn't been long, and things were just coming one after another, making him feel a little overwhelmed.

But it couldn't be denied...

He was indeed very good at stirring up trouble. Moreover, when their master hadn't appeared, most matters were handled by him. He was, after all, the chief disciple.

But now, he felt considerable helplessness...

Especially after hearing the surrounding discussions.

He could indeed stop it, but if he were to stop it now, when Lin Chuan was in a critical moment, it would instead cause unimaginable consequences.

He was unwilling...

To ruin someone's future, which was like killing their parents.

That would be an irreconcilable hatred, so he would not act rashly. He just watched from the side, quietly waiting for the outcome.

When Lin Chuan finished cultivating.

He could then give everyone an explanation.

Daoist Duobao was also quite helpless at this moment. No matter how he handled it, there would be fault. If he intervened, it would indeed satisfy many disciples.

But that would truly offend Lin Chuan.

Moreover...

One must know that this junior disciple was personally accepted as a personal disciple by their master, and this was not long ago. Although he didn't know the reason.

He didn't want to incur his master's displeasure.
