Fang Han The pressure suddenly increased!
He had to devote most of his mind to sensing and avoiding the palm force coming from behind.
Every change of direction and every dodge greatly slowed down his escape speed.
Several times, the sharp wind of the palm almost brushed his body, smashing the trees or rocks nearby, which shocked him to the point where he broke out in cold sweat.
Seeing that the distance between Shen You and himself was getting closer and closer, the cold murderous intent was like a tarsal maggot, locking onto him tightly.
Fang Han was extremely anxious. If he was caught up, he would definitely die.
At this critical moment, Fang Han glanced at the dense trees beside the official road, and an idea flashed in his mind.
He no longer fled along the official road, but suddenly changed direction and plunged into the dense forest beside the official road like a flexible ape!
"Bang! Click!"
Shen You's follow-up air palm force was mostly blocked by dense trees and thick branches.
Although the beating caused sawdust flying and trees broken, it could no longer threaten Fang Han's evasive route as effectively as before.
"Whoosh!"
Fang Han uses the cover of this complex terrain to fully demonstrate the agility and agility of the <Wind Shadow Step>Minor Accomplishment realm.
He shuttled rapidly among the trees, using tree trunks to avoid the force of his palms. His body moved left and right, making it difficult to catch him.
This time, Shen You's air attack effect was greatly reduced, while Fang Han's escape speed was fully utilized.
The distance between the two began to widen at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Shen You was so angry that his face was livid, he roared repeatedly, and blasted with his palms, but he could only destroy the surrounding trees in vain.
I watched the light blue figure of Fang Han flicker in the depths of the forest before disappearing completely...
"Damn it!"
Shen You's roar, full of unwillingness and rage, echoed in the silent mountain forest for a long time.
"Whoosh!"
After getting rid of the pursuit of Shen You, Fang Han did not dare to stop at all and pushed <Wind Shadow Step> to the extreme.
The body shape is like a light cyan gust of wind, galloping in the direction of the Azure Profound Sect.
There was a dull pain from the injury inside his body, and he endured the pain and hurried on.
The journey that originally took a whole day to complete took only half a day as he drove at full speed.
"It's safe!"
When he saw the familiar blue clothes of the disciples guarding the mountain in front of the mountain gate, Fang Han's tense heartstrings finally relaxed.
After exhaling a long breath of turbid air that smelled of blood, he returned to the sect and was finally completely safe.
Even if I give that Nether Pavilion disciple with Seventh Rank cultivation level ten courages, I would not dare to chase him down to the foot of the Azure Profound Sect mountain.
He slowed down his pace, straightened out his clothes that were torn and stained with blood due to the fierce battle and the rush, and then stepped into the mountain gate.
The disciple guarding the mountain examined Identity Token, his eyes stayed on his embarrassed appearance for a moment, but he didn't ask any more questions.
Among the disciples who return from missions, it is not uncommon for them to be as embarrassed as Fang Han.
This was especially true during the period when the conflict between the Azure Profound Sect and Nether Pavilion intensified.
They are already used to it.
Fang Han went straight to the Mission Hall. There were still people coming and going in the lobby, and it was noisy.
He walked to the counter where the task was handed over and placed the Cloth Pouch with the head of Ba Xiong on the table.
"Deacon, disciple Fang Han, has completed the mission of destroying the Ferocious Tiger Mountain bandit. This is the certificate."
His voice was slightly hoarse due to injury and exhaustion.
Deacon behind the counter is still the old-fashioned middle-aged man.
He opened Cloth Pouch and examined the embalmed head with a ferocious face without expression.
Having seen strong winds and waves, he naturally could not be frightened by a head.
After checking the mission file again and confirming that it was correct, he nodded.
"Well, mission accomplished."
Deacon said in a routine manner, swiping Identity Jade Token from Fang Han on the inkstone-shaped object and handed it back.
"170."
Fang Han took the jade sign, Internal Qi vomited slightly and saw that the number on it had changed from "70" to "170".
Thinking of being attacked by the Nether Pavilion disciples, he thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Deacon, on the way back, the disciple was attacked by four disciples of the Nether Pavilion on the official road near Musha City. One of them was a cultivator of Seventh Rank. The disciple was lucky enough to escape."
When Deacon heard this, a hint of surprise appeared on his stern face, and he looked at Fang Han carefully, as if to confirm whether he was lying.
Can a Eighth-rank early stage disciple escape from the Subordinate Seventh Rank warrior?
He pondered for a moment, then took out a file and started writing it down.
"Well, I have recorded this matter and will report it in accordance with the regulations, but..."
Deacon paused and spoke calmly.
"Musha City is quite far away from our sect. Half a day has passed since the incident. The other party must have fled far away. As for asking Nether Pavilion for an explanation... the relationship between the two sects has always been like this, you know it well."
Fang Han nodded silently. He didn't expect any results. The report was just a routine matter.
He bowed his hands, said no more, turned and left Mission Hall.
Just as Fang Han returned to the sect and handed over the task, the atmosphere in the Azure Profound Sect's ancient hall, which was specially used for Twelve Courtyards's meetings, was a little solemn.
In the main hall, there are twelve large rosewood chairs, and now more than ten people are seated.
These people are all powerful warriors with profound auras and majestic eyes. They are none other than Elder, the leader of the Azure Profound Sect Twelve Courtyards.
Zi Courtyard Master Chen Xuan sat on the left, his eyes scanning the other Masters present, especially pausing slightly on the right side of an old man with a thin face wearing dark purple clothes.
This person is Shen Courtyard's director, Tu Baichuan, and Chu Feng was from Shen Courtyard before moving to True Transmission Courtyard.
In the first half of the meeting, the main discussions were on routine matters such as resource allocation for each hospital and year-end assessment.
After these matters were almost discussed, Tu Baichuan suddenly cleared his throat, with a characteristic hoarseness in his voice, and said:
"Everyone, there is one more matter that I feel it is necessary to discuss."
Everyone's eyes were focused on it. Chen Xuan raised his eyes and looked at Tu Baichuan. The secret passage was indeed coming.
Tu Baichuan faced everyone's gaze and said slowly and calmly.
"Recently, I heard that some disciples under my sect, relying on their talents, have no respect for their elders, act arrogantly, and even have conflicts with fellow disciples True Disciple in the sect. Their moral conduct is lacking."
"If things continue like this, I'm afraid it will damage the atmosphere of our sect and make the disciples think that as long as they have good talent, they can ignore etiquette and rules."
He didn't mention names in his words, but who among the people present didn't know that he was referring to Zi Courtyard's Fang Han and True Disciple Chu Feng?
"Tu Elder's statement is unavoidably biased. The sect encourages disciples to compete. Conflicts are common. Conflicts with others will be judged as bad moral conduct. I wonder which sect rule Tu Elder is based on?"
Chen Xuan's face remained unchanged and he asked.
"Elder Chen There is no need to use strong words. The incident between Zi Courtyard Fang Han and Chu Feng True Disciple has caused quite a stir. I believe Elder Chen has also heard about it."
"Chu Feng True Disciple is now ranked Prodigy Ranking, representing my Azure Profound Sect face. If Fang Han turns against him, won't it make outsiders think that my sect disciples have no respect for others?"
"If such things with bad influence are not punished, they will chill the hearts of True Disciple disciples and condone bad habits."
Tu Baichuan said coldly.
"Oh? According to Tu Elder, how should we punish him? Just because he has a rift with a certain True Disciple disciple, can he be convicted? When did the sect's rules become private weapons designed to suit people?"
"True Disciple's disciple status is indeed respected, but ordinary disciples are also protected by the sect's rules. If Fang Han violates the rules, Tu Elder can point it out and I will never protect him."
"But if you have to punish a disciple who has outstanding talent and abides by the sect's rules just because he has a conflict with True Disciple, please forgive Chen for disagreeing."
Chen Xuan asked.
"I'm not making this out of nothing. This son's temperament can be seen from the fact that he has had conflicts with several disciples since Beginner stage."
"In my opinion, in order to correct the atmosphere and impose small punishments and big warnings, at least his monthly basic benefits and ranking rewards should be suspended for a period of time to let him reflect on his past!"
Tu Baichuan said in a strong tone.
As soon as this statement came out, several heads in the palace who were on good terms with Tu Baichuan or intended to please Chu Feng also echoed his words.
"What Tu Elder said is not unreasonable. Geniuses need to polish their character."
"Yes, if you indulge it and ignore it, it will lead to big mistakes in the future, which will not be beautiful."
"It would be good to suspend some resources and let them know their mistakes."
Chen Xuan Hearing these discussions, his face gradually darkened.
He glanced sharply at Tu Baichuan and others, and finally settled on Tu Baichuan's face, and his voice suddenly turned cold.
"Tu Baichuan!"
Calling him by his name made Tu Baichuan's heart skip a beat, and the hall became silent.
"You keep saying it's for the sake of the sect's culture, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that what you did today is just because Chu Feng came to Prodigy Ranking, and you were eager to please him and deliberately suppressed Fang Han!"
"As the master of Shen Courtyard, you don't think about how to cultivate the disciples of this academy, but you create difficulties in every possible way for a disciple from another academy who is practicing diligently and has never violated any sect rules."
"Even trying to cut off his cultivation resources, wouldn't such behavior ruin the sect's ethos and make people feel chilling?!"
Chen Xuan stood up slowly, looking at Tu Baichuan with burning eyes.
His voice was not loud, but every word struck everyone's hearts like a hammer.
"My Zi Courtyard disciples Fang Han and Beginner stage were promoted from Ninth-rank early stage to Grade Eight after only half a year., Martial Dao Stele's ranking has risen from the bottom to Zi Courtyard's third place! The sect should pay attention to cultivating such talents and hard work, instead of suppressing them arbitrarily due to some unwarranted 'influence'!"
"If you can arbitrarily withhold the resources of a blameless disciple just because you please a True Disciple today, will any person whom True Disciple doesn't like be treated like this in the future? Where is the sect's law? Where is the fairness?!"
Chen Xuan's words were so powerful that Tu Baichuan's face turned blue and white. He opened his mouth, but found it difficult to refute for a moment.
The other leaders who had just agreed also had their eyes flickering and did not dare to speak easily again.
The atmosphere in the temple Internal Qi suddenly became extremely depressing.
Chen Xuan looked around and saw that no one dared to look directly at him anymore, so he snorted coldly, sat down again, and spoke decisively.
"Fang Han's basic benefits and ranking rewards are obtained by his own strength and hard work. They are in line with the sect's rules, and no one has the right to stop them! I will never agree to this! If someone insists on bending the law for personal gain, then let the sect master make the decision!"
When it comes to the sect leader, Tu Baichuan and others have completely stopped.
They knew very well that the sect master would never support such an unfounded act that was obviously aimed at suppressing geniuses.
In the end, the storm was suppressed due to Chen Xuan Elder's strong persistence.
Fang Han's treatment was preserved, but everyone in the palace knew that the rift between Chu Feng and Fang Han, as well as the undercurrent caused by it, had not subsided. Instead, it had become more obvious and profound because of this meeting.
Tu Baichuan lowered his head to cover up the fleeting haze in his eyes.
As for Chen Xuan, his face returned to calmness, and he looked in the direction of Zi Courtyard outside the hall, with a trace of imperceptible solemnity passing through the depths.
He knew that although he had protected Fang Han today, the road ahead would still be difficult for that young man.
