Chapter 177 Ridicule
Chapter 177 Taunting
After hearing Ling Feng's explanation, the others had no further suspicion and said nothing more. The group took Ling Feng back to the Mo Yun Kingdom. Upon arriving in the Mo Yun Kingdom, they learned that the elder in secret had revealed himself.
Upon hearing that Ling Feng had been bewitched by the Yin Spirit Pearl and lost his mind, the elder offered to examine Ling Feng again just in case.
After searching for a long time, they couldn't find anything amiss. There wasn't even a trace.
Although he had some doubts, he knew that Ling Feng had indeed recovered, so he told the disciples that he was fine and just needed to rest.
When the disciples said that Ling Feng suddenly regained his senses, he could only answer them with the explanation that the ancient cultivation cave had collapsed and all the magical barriers had been destroyed.
After the elder led the disciples to meet the King of Moyun Kingdom, the elder told them to return to their respective inns to rest.
He only took Lin Xiu and a small group of disciples with him to the Netherworld Beast Forest to wipe out the remaining demonic beasts.
Meanwhile, in Ling Feng's room, he was sitting cross-legged on the bed, practicing his internal energy and healing his injuries with his eyes closed.
Whether it was when he was initially bewitched by the Yin Spirit Pearl and lost his mind, resulting in injury from Bai Ke, or when Lin Xiu restricted his cultivation, or later when he confronted the black mist in the dark room and his mind was disturbed by the black mist, causing him to vomit blood.
Those injuries will cause some damage to the body, more or less. Although it's nothing serious, you still need to heal properly to ensure it won't affect your future practice of martial arts.
"Is it restored?" A strange voice rang out, coming from the ring in Ling Feng's hand.
"After the treatment, there's nothing seriously wrong. I'll be fully recovered in a few days," Ling Feng said, opening his eyes to the ring.
"Did your fellow disciples believe your story?"
"Why don't they believe me? My explanation is reasonable and flawless, and even the elders have no doubts."
But you, first you told me there was treasure at the mass grave, luring me there, and then I was bewitched by that Yin Spirit Pearl and lost my mind.
Furthermore, after being injured by Bai Ke and humiliated by that despicable Lin Xiu during the escape, he lost face in front of all his fellow disciples. Tell me, how should this debt be settled?
"I only sensed that there was indeed a treasure over there, which is why I sent you there. Who knew that it was a Yin Spirit Pearl that could control a person's sanity! Besides, didn't I make amends for my actions later?"
Ling Feng smirked and said expressionlessly, "If you hadn't subdued that black mist in that dark room and helped me out, do you think I would still be alive today?"
"That's enough, let's not dwell on it now, and we don't need to bring it up again. You just stay with me obediently; after all, my recovery will benefit you, won't it?"
"Yes!" the ring replied.
"Alright, you should rest too. I'm going out for a walk. Staying in the room for too long will arouse suspicion."
After he finished speaking, the light on the ring went out, and there was no further movement. Seeing this, Ling Feng circulated his internal energy, changed his clothes, washed up quickly, opened the door, and went out.
Amidst the lively sounds outside, the disciples were seen preparing tableware, getting ready for dinner. It was already mealtime, and seeing this, Ling Feng also stepped forward to join his fellow disciples.
However, as soon as Ling Feng sat down, the originally lively and noisy sounds suddenly fell silent.
Seeing that it had suddenly quieted down, Ling Feng asked one of his disciples in confusion, "What's wrong? Why did you all stop talking as soon as I sat down? Is something wrong with me?"
Upon hearing this, the disciple chuckled awkwardly and replied perfunctorily, "No, no, you're overthinking it. I just told them that our senior brother is resting and asked them to keep quiet."
"Oh, I see." Ling Feng didn't say much after hearing this. He took a bowl of porridge and a steamed bun and began to eat.
However, although the disciple explained that it was nothing, the other disciples who were originally eating moved away from him, forming a circle and isolating Ling Feng.
"Is that him?"
"Yes, it was him. He disobeyed the senior brother's instructions and told the others to stay outside Anning Village to provide backup, but he left on his own."
They were dumbfounded, weren't they? Entangled by that Yin Spirit Pearl, they couldn't recognize anyone, and even attacked their senior brother!
"Really?"
"Of course, how could it be false? If you don't believe me, go ask the other disciples in our team, they all know about this!"
I also heard Su Ziyuan say that when he left on his own, Ziyuan stopped him, and he cursed at them and said some unpleasant things.
They said they only knew their senior brother and would only listen to him. If they left with him, who knows what kind of opportunities they might encounter!
Pshaw! What a pathetic stroke of luck! Was it all because of that rotten bead? How ridiculous.
Fortunately, Ziyuan and the other two didn't listen to his nonsense and left with him, otherwise, wouldn't Senior Brother have had even more trouble? I think his words were clearly out of jealousy towards Senior Brother.
What do you mean by only listening to the eldest brother?! The eldest brother is the main person in charge of this training trip. If we don't listen to the eldest brother, are we supposed to listen to him?!
It's a pity that some people just can't stand seeing others do well; they lack the ability themselves but blame others for it.
If he's so capable, let him try being the chief disciple, or maybe he'll have a powerful father to back him up!
"They have nothing, yet they're always envious. Tsk tsk tsk, that's the kind of person they are. Even if they become successful in the future, they won't remember anyone's kindness. What an ingrate!"
"A white-eyed wolf? Compared to the wolf with the white tuft of fur on its forehead that we met in the Netherworld Beast Forest, who is stronger?" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone chuckled.
"Alright, stop talking. Be careful someone overhears you and comes after you, which will cause more trouble."
"Bring it on, who's afraid of who? We've already done it, why should we care what others say?"
"Alright, quiet down! Hurry up and eat, then we'll see what other tasks we have." Su Ziyuan couldn't stand it anymore and turned to them, saying this.
Sure enough, after these words, there was no further commotion, and everyone began to eat in peace.
Little did Ling Feng know that the steamed bun in his hand had already been squeezed out of shape and was almost crumbled into crumbs, and his other hand holding the spoon was also trembling slightly.
Ling Feng wanted to slam the door and leave, but he couldn't. He could only pretend he hadn't heard anything, ignoring the stares and mocking laughter from everyone and continuing to eat.
"Laugh all you want! One day, I will trample you under my feet and leave you speechless! Bai Ke, Su Ziyuan! You just wait!" Ling Feng vowed inwardly.
Meanwhile, Su Ziyuan, who had just come to Ling Feng's rescue, was unaware that Ling Feng had already come to hate her because of what those people had said.
