The elders and deacons of the entire Immortal Sect were suspended above Haoqi Mountain, and the noise of discussion was also heard.
Zhao Tubao, who was sleeping, was affected by the noise and his eyelids trembled a few times. Then the little girl stretched out comfortably and felt a sense of security wrapping around her.
As if he thought of something, Zhao Tubao stood up. When he saw Liu Nian, his eyebrows and his little head lowered their heads, and he said timidly: "Master, Tubao seems to have gotten into trouble..."
He pressed his two palms on both sides of Zhao Tubao's cheeks and straightened his lowered head. Looking at Zhao Tubao's mouth squeezed into a walnut, Liu Nian couldn't help but smile.
"Master is here. If you did nothing wrong, you don't have to bow your head."
All the monks gathered high in the sky and surrounded the small courtyard of Haoqi Mountain. Looking down at the scene in the courtyard, the courtyard was full of flowers and fruits, and the elegant laurel showed its beauty.
Seeing this scene, the biggest question that the Chiyang Sect and the others had was, what was Du Wu doing kneeling there?
Bai Qiuming didn't recognize Du Wu at all. After all, Du Wu really didn't have much sense of existence before...
Just like Gao Hong, he is still hiding in the corner of the meeting hall and is forgotten...
Liu Nian stood up, handed Zhao Tubao to Wanyu Bingmiao, and looked up at the monks in the sky.
"I wonder why fellow Taoists came to my Haoqi Mountain?"
An old man stood out from the crowd and asked unceremoniously: "Liu Nian, is that disciple named Zhao Tubao here with you?"
"That's my apprentice. What a coincidence. She was just woken up by you. I wonder what you want to do with her?"
Bai Qiuming looked worried when he heard this.
If Liu Nian was impulsive and took action directly against the people of Chiyang Sect, things would be in trouble. Although the result of this hard-fought negotiation was unfair to the two disciples, it was already the best choice!
In Bai Qiuming's mind, although Liu Nian was strong, he was not beyond the ordinary level. He did not think that Liu Nian alone could defeat the three Nascent Soul monks.
When they heard that Zhao Tubao was Liu Nian's apprentice, everyone was slightly startled, and then showed expressions of sudden realization.
"It turns out to be his apprentice!"
"No wonder! He is not a good person himself, and he even caused a disaster some time ago."
"No wonder the disciples trained by such a person will lead He Wen to evil!"
"Why didn't the head drive him out of the Haoqi Immortal Sect? Keeping him would only teach bad disciples."
…
Liu Nian's identity is somewhat special. Because he is an elder of the inner sect, members of the outer sect have always kept a distance from Liu Nian. And because Liu Nian has a history of becoming a demon, members of the inner sect are also reluctant to approach him.
Therefore, Liu Nian's popularity in the Haoqi Immortal Sect was extremely poor, and coupled with the catastrophe a few days ago, Liu Nian's image in the hearts of everyone became even worse.
So much so that after everyone knew that Liu Nian was Zhao Tubao's master, they no longer doubted the truth or falsehood of what Du You said. After all, it was reasonable for bad people to do bad things.
Hearing everyone's comments about Liu Nian, Wanyu Bingmiao stared deeply at Liu Nian's back, the disdain in his eyes became even stronger.
Liu Nian stood below, puzzled by what everyone said!
"Da Nian, why did they say some strange things when they first came up?
Although we have caused a disaster, we are doing it to save people. It shouldn't be a bad thing, right?
Didn’t you say that you should be careful in your words and deeds?
They didn't understand why they dared to draw conclusions directly. "
"Er Nian, you can just ignore what they say. They are a bunch of brainless guys who regard conjecture as the truth.
Pay attention to the east direction, there is a guy who has been sizing you up. "
Liu Nian tried his best not to reply to everyone's inquiries, and turned to look to the east. The Chiyang Sect, Bai Qiuming, and He Ling were all there.
Facing Liu Nian's gaze, Du You said loudly: "My dear, Du You, I came to Haoqi Mountain this time to let the two evil-doing disciples kowtow and apologize to my Yue'er."
Du You...
He is the Du You that He Wen mentioned.
It was this old guy who almost killed the little girl!
Liu Nian stared at Du You with burning eyes, as if a rage was burning inside, and he did not hide his anger.
Bai Qiuming saw something was wrong with Liu Nian and was worried that he would take action directly, causing irreversible consequences, so he immediately spoke out to persuade him.
"Liu Nian, Du You just wants He Wen and Zhao Tubao to apologize to Gao Yue. He has no other requests. Please don't mess around."
He Wen lowered his head and said nothing. He had been with Bai Qiuming for nearly a hundred years, and he could understand his master's thoughts with just one look. He was naturally aware of Bai Qiuming's plan, but he didn't mind it at all.
Isn't it just kneeling and kowtow?
Wouldn't it be enough to just bend your knees?
Hearing Bai Qiuming's words, Liu Nian not only did not calm down, but became even more angry and said angrily: "Apologise? After the matter is cleared up, it is not certain who will apologize to whom?
Before that, I have to get back the debt due to Du You's injury to my apprentice! Give my disciple a whip and I will give you a sword. "
After saying that, Liu Nian pointed his sword forward, and his mana condensed into a dazzling sword that flew into the air, like a white rainbow striking Du You from bottom to top. The sword seemed to cut through the air, making a fierce sound of breaking through the air. .
The onlookers were shocked. They didn't expect Liu Nian to dare to take action against a Nascent Soul cultivator.
Bai Qiuming was even more angry, secretly scolding Liu Nian for not understanding the situation, and his hatred for Liu Nian became even deeper!
Du You smiled indifferently and used his magic power in front, turning it into a colorless barrier. He didn't care about Liu Nian's sword.
"It's just a golden elixir monk who dares to take action against me. You really overestimate your capabilities!"
The flying sword struck at extremely high speed, like a needle penetrating a thin cloth, easily piercing the barrier formed by Du You's magic power.
The smile suddenly stopped on Du You's face, his pupils shrank instantly, and the sharp sword expanded rapidly in his eyes.
The strong sense of crisis of death stimulated Du You, making him make the most correct choice - escape!
Du You turned his head sideways, and the long sword passed by his face. The light as white as snow reflected on his withered face, illuminating every detail of his beard.
Du You, who had escaped death, looked at Liu Nian in disbelief. At this time, he was already confused and breathing rapidly, but he still looked calm and composed.
A golden elixir raised its hand and struck, but I couldn't stop it!
How can this be!
In the eyes of everyone, Du Youshi of the Nascent Soul Realm disdained to take the sword from Liu Nian of the Golden Core Realm, and easily dodged Liu Nian's attack. They never expected that Du You survived the most dangerous attacks.
For a moment, there was a lot of noise from the crowd.
"Liu Nian! Don't be ignorant of praise. Your disciple has made a mistake, and as a master, you still have to protect him!"
"Fellow Taoist from Chiyang Sect, I'm here to seek justice. How could you act like this!"
"If you are wrong, you are wrong, and you should kowtow and apologize. Learn from Elder Bai Qiuming!"
"The apprentice has bullied others, and he still wants to protect him. It's really..."
…
Du You, who was still in shock, was a little confused when he saw everyone's reaction. He just thought he was ambushed! Everyone led him here so that Liu Nian could kill him.
It's just that the current situation seems a bit strange. Everyone seems to have a bad relationship with Liu Nian...
At this time, He Ling ignored Bai Qiuming's obstruction, fell from the sky, walked to Liu Nian's side, and spoke for Liu Nian.
"Things may not be what you think, there may be something else hidden..."
He Ling's words made Liu Nian feel a little relieved, but her words alone could not change everyone's minds.
The noise was like fire burning through the forest, loud and endless.
Liu Nian frowned impatiently. The words of the onlookers made him even more bored. He couldn't help but look back at Zhao Tubao. Seeing the worried look on his disciple's face, Liu Nian gave her a reassuring smile. .
"Don't worry, as long as the master is here, nothing they say will count!"
An old monk stood out from the crowd with a kind face. A large number of monks stopped making noise, which showed that this man's words were quite weighty.
The old monk stood with his hands behind his hands and said calmly: "Elder Liu Nian, I can understand your eagerness to love your disciple. But the fact is before us, your disciple did something wrong, and it is natural to kowtow and apologize.
Our Haoqi Immortal Sect cannot be unreasonable. Listen to my advice and ask your apprentice who has done something wrong to kneel down and apologize. This is not an excessive request. "
The old monk's blind advice made Liu Nian feel very angry, and he retorted loudly: "Who said it was my apprentice who did something wrong? It was clearly the people of the Chiyang Sect who were at fault first!
The person who was bullied was obviously my disciple, and the one who should apologize was also a member of the Chiyang Sect! "
The old monk sincerely wanted to give Liu Nian a step down, but he didn't expect Liu Nian to be so unkind. He no longer maintained his kind image and shouted angrily: "Liu Nian, you are still making excuses at this time. It is obvious that the disciple wants to You were about to commit theft and were caught red-handed. The truth has already been revealed, but you, a master, still want to deny it.
Ignorant of shame, it is useless to be a member of the Immortal Sect! "
The words of the old monk aroused the anger in everyone's hearts again, and the shouts and curses could not be heard.
If he didn't listen, he would get angry when he heard it. Liu Nian tried his best to listen to Liu Danian's advice and tried his best to ignore what these people said.
I don't know which monk swore and said: "I remember that Liu Nian seemed to owe a debt of fifty million. In this case, his apprentice might have been instigated by him to steal things!"
"You are right..."
"I think it's very possible!"
"In order to pay off a debt, he asked his apprentice to become a thief. How could he do such a shameful thing!"
"You're called an inner sect elder in vain! Bah, shame on you!"
"Liu Nian should be allowed to kneel down and apologize! After all, it's all his fault!"
"I apologize for making him kneel down too!"
"Let Liu Nian apologize!"
"Apologize!"
…
Everyone pointed the finger at Liu Nian, forcing Liu Nian to take responsibility, but Liu Nian regarded everyone's scolding as a barking dog.
Liu Nian blocked his ears and felt a little clean. Just when he was relaxing a little, the sound of crying behind him made his heart go into chaos.
When everyone threw the responsibility to Liu Nian, the image of Liu Nian kneeling down and bowing his head appeared in Zhao Tubao's mind.
She didn't want such a gentle master to be bullied because of herself.
Just like my father, just because he didn't admit his mistake, his father would kneel down and apologize for him.
"My master is not at fault. It's all Tu Bao's fault. Tu Bao admits his mistake. It was Tu Bao's own fault. It was not the master's instruction. Tu Bao is willing to kneel down and apologize..."
Zhao Tubao's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard in everyone's ears. It was like a stone falling into an already unstable lake, attracting even more enthusiastic shouts and curses.
"Liu Nian! Your disciple has admitted it, what else do you have to say!"
"That's right, I just resolutely asked the people of Chiyang Sect to apologize. It's really shameless..."
"What kind of master there is, there is also what kind of apprentice..."
A dazzling light suddenly appeared in the small courtyard of Haoqi Mountain, and five thousand flying swords emerged. The tips of the swords were pointed at everyone, and Liu Nian's angry shouts came from below.
"If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will beat you up too!"
Seeing Liu Nian condensing such a large number of flying swords, Du was confused for a moment. Anyone who has not faced the power of this flying sword has no idea how terrifying this blow is.
But things were beyond his control, and even if he tried to persuade others, no one would listen.
I never expected that Liu Nian, who was so powerful, could be so unpopular?
How come the popularity is so bad!
The shouts and curses of the crowd did not stop due to Liu Nian's anger, but instead became louder and louder.
"Liu Nian, how dare you attack your fellow disciples!"
"Otherwise, when the leader comes back, he will be the first to destroy you!"
"It's really against you! You alone dare to attack so many of us."
"Hand over your apprentice obediently and let her kneel down to apologize. It's better than breaking up!"
…
Liu Nian clenched his fists. Reason told him that he couldn't really attack his fellow disciples, but the words of these people were really irritating!
For a moment, Liu Nian fell into confusion.
"Da Nian, what should I do?"
"Fortunately, I gave you half a month to control your emotions, otherwise a lot of people would have died today!
Give me your body and let me do this! "
He Wen looked at Liu Nian who fell into silence and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He had decided to sacrifice himself to solve this troublesome situation.
He Wen walked to Liu Nian, bowed and said: "Elder Liu Nian, I actually lied to you. Those things were all done by me and have nothing to do with Tubao. Please protect Zhao Tubao. All this will be done by me." let……"
Liu Nian directly hit He Wen on the forehead with a chestnut: "Lori, you are so embarrassed. You are not pretending to be a hero at a young age. Shut your mouth and stand aside!"
He Wen hurriedly protected the hit forehead, but found that it didn't hurt at all. After touching it carefully, the previous bruise seemed to have disappeared.
He Wen was about to say thank you, but found Liu Nian looking at him coldly, with a pair of dark and charming black eyes as mysterious and vast as the deep sea.
"Little fat boy, I tell you to stay back. Next is my home court."
Oh⊙∀⊙! …This damn sense of security…
