What-if storyline (8)

After all, it was Su Fuyun and his group who had offended first, and the elders were indeed feeling guilty, so no one dared to refuse the punishment set by Sang Ying.

The Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivators had only asked them to clean the long steps; they neither harmed them nor tried to extract any benefits from them.

If they can't even give such a small punishment, isn't that blatantly slapping a Nascent Spirit Transformation cultivator in the face?

If this gets out, it won't just be a matter between the Flowing Light Sword Sect and Sang Ying, but a matter between their disciples who don't know etiquette and all the Spirit Transformation cultivators!

If this isn't handled properly, the Flowing Light Sword Sect will be targeted by all Spirit Transformation cultivators as a group they will no longer associate with.

Having only spoken a few words, she was to be punished like this, and even made to clean up Settled Frost Peak for Sang Ying. Naturally, Su Fuyun did not want to agree to this.

In her opinion, if Sang Ying's cultivation level hadn't been higher than hers, the fault should have clearly fallen on Sang Ying. It was just a pity that Heavenly Dao was so blind, allowing Sang Ying to cultivate to the Nascent Spirit Transformation first.

Feeling extremely Qi Ingestion, Su Fuyun, urged by the elders, quickly sealed his cultivation and began cleaning the long staircase every day.

She did want to complain to Gu Huaiwei and ask her to be exempt from the punishment. However, Su Fuyun had already planned to target the resurgent Sang Ying, so she coaxed Gu Huaiwei into going into seclusion.

Sang Ying is fine now, but Gu Huaiwei is the one being punished. However, Gu Huaiwei is already immersed in cultivation, and even Su Fuyun himself cannot wake her up.

Filled with regret, Su Fuyun had no choice but to obediently clean the long steps.

Not two days later, suddenly a disciple came shouting and yelling to Su Fuyun.

At that time, Su Fuyun was still grumbling as she swept the fallen leaves on the ground. Because she couldn't use her Spiritual Power, she felt that her hands holding the broom were much rougher than before.

It was at this moment that the female cultivator with whom she had a fairly good relationship came knocking on her door. Holding the newly compiled Record of Renown in the Cultivation World, she approached excitedly. "Senior Sister, Senior Sister Su, something terrible has happened!"

Su Fuyun helped the person up. "Don't rush, speak slowly, what do you mean I'm not well?"

"No, Senior Sister Su, something terrible has happened! You have to take a look!" The female disciple shoved the Record of Renown into her hands.

Su Fuyun knew what this thing was; it was supposedly a record of interesting things in the Cultivation World. However, as anyone who had read it knew, it was actually just gossip about some famous figures in the Cultivation World.

Su Fuyun had never been interested in this kind of thing before; this was the first time someone had taken the initiative to show it to her.

"What's wrong? Did some big 'news' come out in this issue of the Record of Renown?" she teased as she reached out to take it.

Upon taking the first page of the Record of Renown, Su Fuyun was completely dumbfounded.

What does it mean that the Gong Household and the Mara Gate in the Immortal Spirit Realm have gone from allies to enemies? What does it mean that the second young master of the Gong Household has sworn to kill Luo Jin of the Mara Gate? What does it mean that Fairy White Frost's four close male friends seem to have broken off relations and are about to turn against each other?

How could that be? These people like her so much, and they've known for a long time that she wants them to get along well. How could they do something against their own wishes?!

Just as Su Fuyun was about to say something, the female disciple interrupted, "Not only that, but a video has been circulating everywhere today, it's true, it's true..."

"What is it? Tell me quickly!" The female disciple's hesitant manner made Su Fuyun even more worried.

Seeing her attitude, the female disciple, who was already afraid, did not dare to speak directly, but instead gave her the low-level shadow bead she had obtained.

Su Fuyun took the image bead and looked at it. This thing, which could be described as a low-priced version of Image-Retaining Stone, ostentatiously projected a series of images.

After she finished watching the video of the four people inexplicably fighting each other on Settled Frost Peak, and how Luo Jin ultimately tricked Bai Ji and Liu Yuzhi and hurriedly fled from Settled Frost Peak, the video was frozen on Luo Jin's back as she blended into the night.

Once the image completely disappeared, Su Fuyun angrily threw the image bead to the ground.

She didn't see the pained expression on the female disciple's face beside her; she was completely absorbed in the truth of how the four of them had turned against each other.

No wonder she received no response when she tried to contact them again the next day. No wonder they ran away so quickly, without leaving a single message.

It turns out they had a fight on Sang Ying's Settled Frost Peak, which escalated into a life-or-death feud. The worst part is that the scene of the four of them fighting was even recorded!

In the Cultivation World, rivalries between cultivators are not a big deal; even if they do fight each other, it's actually quite normal.

However, even after they had killed each other, they hadn't completely eliminated their enemies.

Now, all four are alive, yet they hate each other. Su Fuyun wanted to appease them, but the fact that they were scheming against each other was common knowledge, even involving the forces behind them. Now, these people are determined to fight to the death!

No wonder the Gong Household suddenly clashed with the Mara Gate, and no wonder the news of their falling out spread so quickly.

"Sang Ying, Sang Ying! It must be her! What did she do to make everything turn out like this!" Su Fuyun's face twisted uncontrollably. She threw down the broom in her hand and stormed up Settled Frost Peak in a rage.

The female disciple who had been abandoned suddenly shuddered as she recalled Su Fuyun's terrifying expression.

Was that really Senior Sister Su, who was always known for her gentleness? Why did that person seem so unfamiliar to her?

Su Fuyun moved with incredible speed, reaching the halfway point of the mountain in the blink of an eye. She was now blinded by rage and no longer cared about what the voice inside the jade pendant on her chest was saying.

Even though the other party told her that many outstanding men would fall at her feet in the future, Su Fuyun cared about not only those four men, but also Sang Ying.

She had worked so hard to win the hearts of those people, yet she so easily caused those four to break ties, and to break ties so decisively, even throwing herself to the back of her mind for the sake of hatred!

This was something Su Fuyun simply could not tolerate.

As she rushed towards Settled Frost Peak to cause trouble, an uninvited guest finally arrived at the gates of the Flowing Light Sword Sect.

The disciples guarding the mountain gate, along with the others who had been punished to sweep the long staircase, all looked at the young man not far away, overwhelmed by his extraordinary demeanor and imposing presence.

The disciple who received the visiting card stammered, "May I ask what brings you to our Flowing Light Sword Sect, senior?"

Actually, this was just a formality; they would never stop someone like the young man in front of them from going in.

The young man in Hongyi smiled slightly and waved his folding fan, "I have come to retrieve my disciple."

The crowd was puzzled. "Who is this senior's disciple, and why is he in our Flowing Light Sword Sect?"

"It's a long story. Have any of you heard of Sang Ying?" Despite the sudden change in the disciples' expressions, Jiulian's smile remained unchanged. "She is my disciple."
