Snapped!
As the crisp sound of a slap came, Xu Yafan didn't react at all. His whole body spun in a circle and fell to the ground with a plop.
"Teacher, master!"
Hu Ling was extremely panicked, even more panicked than when Xu Yafan hit her just now. She hurriedly reached out to help Xu Yafan.
Everyone else around was dumbfounded. Whether it was Xu Yafan's many disciples, the people brought by Duanmu Qing, or even the onlookers, they were all dumbfounded.
Who would have thought that Duanmuqing slapped Xu Yafan backhand instead of punishing Ye Cheng after Ye Cheng humiliated Xu Yafan first!
This is not scientific at all!
However, Ye Cheng's expression remained unchanged and he just looked at Xu Yafan with a sneer. Of course, what Xu Yafan did really deserved a beating. If Duan Muqing hadn't come today, I'm afraid it would have been him, Ye Cheng, who would have taken action to repair this old woman.
It's just like early menopause, so messy.
"Lord Pavilion Master, you, why did you hit me?"
A bright red mark appeared on Xu Yafan's face, but her eyes were extremely horrified. She didn't understand why Duanmuqing hit her. Could it be that Duanmuqing hit her because she humiliated Duanmuqing's cute little face?
Is this still the Duanmu Qing she knew before?
"Hmph, why did I hit you? Didn't you get the points yourself?"
Duanmu Qing had guessed Ye Cheng's identity before. After all, Ye Cheng's appearance was quite similar to his old master. What Ye Cheng said later confirmed Ye Cheng's identity, which made her extremely pleasantly surprised.
But Duanmuqing couldn't reveal it, because Ye Cheng's identity was special. Today's Medicine Temple is too complicated, and Ye Cheng's true identity must not be revealed.
But Xu Yafan had no vision at all, and kept slandering Ye Cheng, and even scolded Ye Cheng for being a little beast. How could Duanmu Qing swallow this breath? If it weren't for the fact that Xu Yafan had been following her for six or seven years, Duanmu Qing would have directly Take action and destroy the opponent.
"I, I don't know, please let me know, Lord Pavilion Master!"
Although Xu Yafan was slapped by Duan Muqing, she did not dare to show anger in her eyes, but she was extremely unwilling in her heart. She had done nothing wrong at all. Why did the Pavilion Master slap her in the face in public?
If calling Ye Cheng a little beast made Duanmuqing unhappy, then she, Xu Yafan, would never bow her head.
"Elder Xu, have you forgotten our original intention of organizing the selection of outer disciples?"
Duanmuqing asked coldly.
"My subordinates dare not forget."
Xu Yafan gritted his teeth and said.
"Don't you dare to forget? I think you have almost forgotten everything. Look what you have done? Humiliate the participating disciples. How do you ask our Qingmu Pavilion to select disciples in the future? How do you make people view my Qingmu Pavilion? You are using your power to bully others. You're a senior? I've already hit you lightly!"
The smile on Duanmuqing's face disappeared long ago. She looked at Xu Yafan, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes, and she said coldly.
"Lord Pavilion Master, our original intention of organizing the selection of outer disciples is to select talents, but this boy is definitely not..."
Before Xu Yafan finished her words, she heard Ye Cheng say coldly, "Elder Xu, I have never met the master of the pavilion. The master of the pavilion just thinks that I am like her old friend, and he values me somewhat, but you don't Are you slandering me everywhere because you are afraid that I will take away your position as elder?"
Ye Cheng spoke up in time to stop Xu Yafan because he was afraid that Xu Yafan would become angry and expose the true purpose of selecting outer disciples, so that interested people could guess his identity.
"You are so presumptuous. I am an elder who behaves properly and is right. Am I afraid of you?"
Naturally, Xu Yafan didn't know the true meaning of Ye Cheng's words. She thought Ye Cheng was just trying to humiliate her, so she shouted angrily.
"I don't know if I'm afraid or not. In the early years, my grandfather once told me that the master of Qingmu Pavilion is a master of alchemy, so that one day I can worship in Qingmu Pavilion and learn the art of alchemy!"
"Elder Xu, I see that your actions today have ruined the good reputation of the Pavilion Master. I hope Elder Xu will not forget his original intention, otherwise he will definitely become the target of public criticism in the Qingmu Pavilion!"
Ye Cheng saw Xu Yafan being slapped in public by Duan Muqing, which was regarded as a lesson, so he sneaked in and revealed some information to Xu Yafan to let her understand his identity, so that he could let it go!
"I have become the target of public criticism, and you are here to teach me a lesson..."
But how could Xu Yafan react? What's more, in order not to leak Ye Dingtian's secrets, Duanmuqing didn't even mention it to her most trusted people, let alone Xu Yafan.
"That's enough, Xu Yafan, you just rely on the false information to blame him, accuse him of innocence, and make many sophistry. Apologize to him!"
Duanmuqing's cold voice came.
"What? I, I apologize to him? Sir, this kid has most likely stolen the questions for this exam. I think he should be severely punished!"
Xu Yafan was about to completely collapse. Even if she was humiliated by Ye Cheng, she was slapped by Duan Muqing because of Ye Cheng, and now she had to apologize to Ye Cheng. Where could she put her old face?
"You said he stole the questions, do you have any evidence?"
Duanmuqing asked coldly.
"Just because he answered all my questions within half an hour, this is not normal. This is evidence that he stole the questions. If you don't believe me, ask the master of the pavilion, is this normal?"
Xu Yafan gritted his teeth and said loudly.
But when Xu Yafan pointed his finger at the surrounding contestants, all of them were stunned and in a dilemma. Who dared to stand up at this time?
Although if they don't speak, they will offend Xu Yafan. As long as they dare to speak, they will offend the master of Qingmu Pavilion!
"Are you all mute? Speak to me!"
Xu Yafan pointed at these people and wanted to open their mouths.
"Xu Yafan, don't I, Duanmu Qing, even have this kind of judgment? If he answers all your questions within half an hour, he is stealing the questions. So if I answer your questions within half an hour, am I the same? Stole your topic?"
Duanmuqing's eyes were filled with chills, and she said coldly.
After all, Ye Cheng is the little master of the Medicine Temple. If he doesn't even have this ability, how can he be in charge of the entire Medicine Temple?
"Lord Pavilion Master, you are an amazingly talented person. How can you be compared to others?"
Xu Yafan said with a wry smile on his face.
"That's enough. How do you know he is not? In the future, don't make random accusations without complete evidence. If you really don't believe it, you can just wait until it's over and re-examine. Do you need to humiliate people like this?"
After all, there were many outsiders around, and Duanmu Qing didn't want to make things worse, so she just scolded them casually. Xu Yafan was not punished.
It's just that Xu Yafan was too prejudiced against Ye Cheng. She was slapped in the face by Duan Muqing in public and scolded in front of her. She couldn't keep it off her face for a long time!
What's more, in her opinion, the reason why Duanmu Qing behaved abnormally was that he was completely fascinated by Ye Cheng's small face and appearance, and even forgot some basic bottom lines. She must not compromise.
"Lord Pavilion Master, I am not humiliating him. This brat is simply unworthy. Pavilion Master, I think I will be kicked out by him."
Xu Yafan gritted his teeth and said seriously.
"Xu Yafan, are you the Pavilion Master, or am I the Pavilion Master? Do you even dare not listen to what I say? Come, come, come, Xu Yafan, I will give you the position of Pavilion Master, what do you think?"
In an instant, Duanmuqing's anger burst out and shouted towards Xu Yafan.
"No, no, Pavilion Master, you misunderstood. I did all this for our Qingmu Pavilion! Please Pavilion Master, please know my thoughts!"
When Xu Yafan heard this, he hurriedly explained.
"For Qingmu Pavilion? I think it's because of your prejudice, Xu Yafan, who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, confuses right and wrong, and is still here with a eloquent tongue. From now on, you are no longer the elder of Qingmu Pavilion."
Duanmuqing shouted angrily.
