"Never mind that, but Yun Lang's strength truly did not disappoint me."
Yun Lang, possessing the strength of the second level of Foundation Establishment, showed no signs of defeat against Wang Ba, who was at the fifth level of Golden Core.
Given this track record, he would have no problem standing out in the upcoming martial arts competition.
"It is all due to my master's excellent guidance," Yun Lang replied.
However, the true reason behind it was something only he himself knew.
Lin Ruxue's method was essentially one of laissez-faire.
If it were anyone else, they might not have been able to improve their strength at all.
He understood this point perfectly; otherwise, he would not have adopted such an attitude.
"Damn it! If that's the case, then there's no need for such idle talk."
Elder Wu said anxiously.
He never expected such a major issue to be caused by that fellow Li Jun.
"Perhaps I should apprehend Li Jun," Elder Wu said urgently.
The emergence of such a traitor in the Taichu Sect was a disgrace to them.
"No need, let's see how he plays out," Lin Ruxue shook her head.
The fact that he could frame Yun Lang for Wang Long's death indicated that he was definitely trying to eliminate his rivals.
Everyone knew that the winner of the upcoming competition would enter the secret realm to search for treasures.
As long as they could survive, those who lived would achieve great things.
Li Jun's haste in framing Yun Lang was simply because he was afraid he would not be a match for Yun Lang.
The more this was the case, the more they should defeat Li Jun through proper means.
"That's right! Master, what you said is exactly what I was thinking," Yun Lang nodded.
His objective was very clear: to see how to deal with his enemies.
If trouble arose in the future, the approach might not be the same.
"You..." Elder Wu hesitated.
He hadn't expected that Yun Lang, at such a young age, would possess such magnanimity.
It was precisely this attitude that made him care more about Yun Lang, even to the point of curiosity.
"Alright, since this is the situation, I won't disturb you further," Elder Wu sighed.
The current situation was clear, and as long as there was no danger, there would be no trouble.
Furthermore, they were all intelligent people. When the time came, anyone could be prepared.
"Farewell, Elder Wu," Yun Lang clasped his fists.
He bowed respectfully to Elder Wu, who had helped him countless times, without any hint of disrespect.
It was precisely because of this that Elder Wu cared even more about his life and death.
"Farewell," Elder Wu clasped his fists.
Then, he turned into a gentle breeze and vanished.
"Big Brother!"
At this moment, Zhao Wan'er suddenly ran over.
It had been incredibly dangerous earlier, so she dared not utter a word. Now that the crisis had passed, she naturally came over.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"You... you scared me to death!" Zhao Wan'er exclaimed.
She hadn't expected things to be so complicated. She had previously thought that Xuri City was chaotic.
But she hadn't expected that even a major sect like Taichu Sect would have such internal conflicts.
"They are just minor characters," Yun Lang said with a smile.
His intention was to prevent Zhao Wan'er from worrying about him.
He knew that Zhao Wan'er had lived a life of fear and trepidation in Xuri City before.
Now that she had followed Yun Lang, she deserved to be given ample security.
"Yun Lang, the Wang family's affairs are quite troublesome. You must be more careful in the future."
"Master, do you think they will still target me?" Yun Lang asked, puzzled.
It had been explained clearly earlier; even a fool should be able to discern the situation.
"Haha, the Wang family has many disciples. How could they give up so easily?" Lin Ruxue shook her head.
Although their strength might not match Yun Lang's, they had the advantage in numbers.
Even if they couldn't harm Yun Lang, causing him harassment would still be a significant problem.
"Hmph! No matter who they are, if they want to seek revenge, I'll accept it," Yun Lang declared, patting his chest.
It wasn't as if he was afraid of them and wouldn't dare to act in the future.
It was just that they were oblivious to their own doom, which would lead to so many problems.
"Good! It's great that you have such courage," Lin Ruxue nodded.
The matter was clear. If a problem truly arose, it might not end this way.
However, there were still doubts, and it was unclear how much trouble would ensue.
"Alright, you two rest. I have other matters to attend to," Lin Ruxue said.
Without waiting for Yun Lang to speak, she suddenly turned into a gentle breeze and vanished.
"Big Brother! You... you really killed that Wang Long?" Zhao Wan'er asked.
Seeing their expressions, they all wanted to seek revenge on Yun Lang.
Moreover, every time someone came, they were so fierce, which made people understand the situation.
Zhao Wan'er was worried about Yun Lang's safety and didn't want him to be truly hunted by those people.
"Don't worry, that matter has nothing to do with me," Yun Lang explained.
They had simply believed Li Jun's words and wanted to deal with Yun Lang.
If Li Jun's plan succeeded, Yun Lang and the Wang family would both suffer heavy losses.
However, in the end, it wouldn't harm him at all, which was the most troublesome aspect.
Perhaps Lin Ruxue was also worried about this very problem arising.
"Then... then what do we do?"
"I didn't kill him, so even if they want revenge, they can't do anything," Yun Lang shrugged.
Besides, the Wang family had such a large enterprise, they weren't afraid. He was just a disciple, so what was there to worry about?
"Okay," Zhao Wan'er shook her head.
However, things had already happened, and they were naturally unaware of the current situation.
"By the way, in these past few days at Taichu Sect, have you gained any insights?"
"Me?" Zhao Wan'er smiled.
What insights could she possibly have? She usually just cooked for Lin Ruxue.
Moreover, Lin Ruxue rarely spoke, and even when she was with him, she would just drink by herself.
"I knew it. Your master is a woman who loves to drink and is very cold."
"Haha, the fact that you noticed this indicates that your master spent quite a lot of time with you in my absence."
"Ah?" Zhao Wan'er was surprised.
If that were the case, she would definitely understand the problem.
After all, everyone had different thoughts. If problems arose in the future, anyone would stand up.
"I suppose so, but your master has been quite good to me," Zhao Wan'er said with a smile.
Then, she slowly walked towards the back mountain with Yun Lang.
Having been at Taichu Sect for so many days, apart from resting in the cave every day, he hadn't truly explored.
Now that he had the opportunity, he certainly wouldn't miss it.
