(God's perspective)
Human nature is inherently exclusive, and there is no absolute dislike or absolute liking.
There are many unwritten rules in the world where people gather, but these rules cannot be stated openly.
If someone breaks this unspeakable rule, the person who breaks the rule will be the target of public criticism.
Gu Yao's senior sister broke this rule, so she received more strange looks from people.
It's true that people look pitiful when they are down and out, but what they are experiencing now is all the fault of this senior sister.
Everyone began to defend Gu Yao and cast disgusting looks at the senior.
In order to avoid causing greater commotion, An Shangfeng's other disciples also wanted to drag one of the senior sisters away.
"Let me go! I don't understand! Why are you protecting her! Aren't you all acting out of lust? What are you pretending to be here..."
"Luoyang!"
When one of the senior sisters was about to say something more radical, Du Chunniang, the elder of An Shangfeng, called her out.
"Master, it's Gu Yao—"
"Snapped!"
In full view of everyone, Du Chunniang slapped a senior sister.
"Master, how can you hit me? It's obviously her!"
The senior sister who was called Luoyan by Du Chunniang covered her beaten face and continued to argue, even though Du Chunniang raised her hand to greet her.
Du Chunniang's actions were so frightening that Luo Yan quickly closed her eyes and used her hands to protect her face.
As a result, Du Chunniang did not continue to fight. Instead, she stretched out her hand to Luo Yan and said, "Hand it over."
"Master, I am right, I am not..."
"Hand it over."
Luo Yan gritted her teeth and pulled out the hairpin from her head and put it in Du Chunniang's hand. She turned around and glared at Gu Yao before walking away.
The few female disciples who were close to Luo Yan also left with her.
Du Chunniang approached Gu Yao with the hairpin and said, "The hairpin is back too. Are you happy now?"
"Uncle Master..."
Gu Yao's tears hadn't been wiped away yet, and she hid behind Jiang Lin in fear.
"How come your girl doesn't even want to respect my seniors here? Gu Yao, you don't know An Shangfeng's rules. She is your senior sister, and I am your senior uncle."
Du Chunniang looks serious and mean, and when she talks like this, people feel uncomfortable.
"I know..." Gu Yao clutched Jiang Lin's sleeve tightly, and she could only give a weak reply to Du Chunniang.
"Since you know that there are some things, you should go back to An Shangfeng and tell them. Don't let other Taoists of the Immortal Sect see our An Shangfeng's jokes!"
There was nothing wrong with what Du Chunniang said, but Jiang Lin just didn't like to hear it.
"An Shangfeng, haha. If this Taoist priest really cares about Gu Yao, would she still ask for help here? As her uncle, you are totally looking for your bullying disciple, right?"
Jiang Lin's words were neither big nor small, and she was now a junior disciple of the Du Dharma Sect, so as an elder, Du Chunniang naturally didn't like to hear it.
"It's not your rude junior's turn to take care of An Shangfeng's affairs. Come here, Gu Yao!"
Du Chunniang thought about pulling Gu Yao to her side, but Jiang Lin stopped Du Chunniang's action as soon as she protected Gu Yao.
"I, An Shangfeng, like peace. You, the junior here, don't want to cause a fight between the two sects. The Dufa Sect cannot defeat me, An Shangfeng."
Du Chunniang was already a little angry. She was not angry at Gu Yao for his behavior, but angry at Jiang Lin for hindering her.
"Can't beat me? You might as well give it a try and see if you can beat me!"
Jiang Lin actually prefers to start a fight instead of bickering.
"You are such a junior! You must be a stubborn person in Dufamen too. If that old man doesn't know how to teach you how to respect teachers, I will teach you a lesson for him!"
Du Chunniang gathered her spiritual energy and transformed into a fairy sword.
Jiang Lin is also preparing to transform into a wooden hammer to fight.
Gu Yao pulled Jiang Lin with a worried look, "Jiang Lin can't..."
"Gu Yao, please stay away. This is a duel between me and your uncle!"
Jiang Lin was extremely excited. She saw that her wooden hammer was about to take shape, but two figures walked up to her and Du Chunniang.
"What am I making a fuss about? What a fight between the two schools at the Beast Taming Conference!"
Taoist Xuqing frowned and did not look at Du Chunniang. Du Chunniang gritted her teeth and turned her face away, not daring to look at Taoist Xuqing.
On Jiang Lin's side, Taoist Master Xuyun pressed down Jiang Lin's hand that was about to attack and at the same time blocked Jiang Lin's focus.
"This is Chongyuanmen. Everyone is a guest. Don't cause trouble to the hosts."
Taoist Master Xuyun naturally wanted to get to know Jiang Lin. What he said to Jiang Lin had another meaning, which was to ask Jiang Lin to hold back her impulse and not to arouse too much suspicion.
"Aren't those the elders of Jingling Mountain?"
"I heard that the kind-faced Taoist Master Xuyun is also a strong master of beast control. But he has never participated in the beast control conference, and I don't know if it is true."
"Even if it's true, there won't be a chance for the elders like them this time, right? But can those sword idiots in Jing Lingshan really know how to control beasts?"
The disciples who were watching the excitement began to discuss noisily again. This time, Taoist Master Xuqing naturally heard everything.
"What are you looking at here? Why do you guys think you are so good and capable! Are you trying to compete with me?"
Taoist Master Xuqing shouted at the disciples who gathered around him, and the group of disciples were frightened away.
"What are you still doing here?"
Taoist Master Xuqing turned around and looked at Du Chunniang. Du Chunniang put away her sword and turned around and left.
When Taoist Master Xu Qing saw Du Chunniang leaving, he turned his head and looked at Jiang Lin and Taoist Master Xu Yun.
Taoist Master Xuyun and Jiang Lin looked at each other and smiled slightly. Then he took out a bottle of elixir from his arms and handed it to Jiang Lin.
Jiang Lin accepted the elixir without confirming its ingredients.
"I'm looking forward to your performance in this beast control conference."
Taoist Xuyun addressed Jiang Lin as you, which made Gu Yao a little concerned. She also suspected that Taoist Xuyun was just being too polite.
"Grandpa, I try not to be sloppy." Jiang Lin also conjured a bottle of elixir and handed it to Taoist Xuyun.
Taoist priest Xuqing on the side frowned at the strange transaction here. What elixir were they exchanging?
Taoist Master Xuyun smiled slightly after hearing Jiang Lin's answer. Then he looked up and saw Gu Choumian's figure from a distance.
"It seems that someone is coming to see us. Say hello to him for me." Taoist Xuyun said to Jiang Lin and patted Taoist Xuqing on the shoulder, and then they headed towards Gu Choumian.
As soon as Jiang Lin heard this, she understood who the "him" in Taoist Xuyun's mouth was. It must be Yun Qishen.
When Gu Yao saw Taoist Xuyun and the others walking away, he spoke again, "Jiang Lin, what should I do next? Can I still go back to An Shang Feng?"
"Of course I can go back, but not now." Jiang Lin wiped the tears on Gu Yao's face, "You can't cry anymore."
