Chapter 195: Punishment

Chapter 195 Punished
A Jindan Elder looked solemn, “If things are really as you say, it’s just that. But if there is no Pure Heart Lotus on her body, you have the crime of falsely accusing a fellow disciple.”

A trace of panic rose in Gu Letian’s heart, if he failed to search for the Pure Heart Lotus from Xu Chuniang’s hands and was convicted of falsely accusing his fellow disciples, he was afraid that it would affect the reputation he had managed to build up.

It was even very possible that this would lead to the displeasure of his master.

He fixed his mind and suppressed the panic in his heart. He had watched her collect the Pure Heart Lotus Seed with his own eyes, there would be no falsehood.

“Disciple knows.”

The Jindan elder withdrew his gaze and looked at the accused female Foundation Establishment disciple, “Hand over your storage ring.”

The two storage rings were quickly presented, and with a cursory sweep by the Jindan Elder, the contents of the rings were unmistakable, there was no Pure Heart Lotus Seed at all.

His brows furrowed as his divine sense swept around the accused female disciple, but he didn’t find anything strange.

“Did you acquire the Pureheart Lotus Seed?”

Xu Chuniang nodded, “It’s not true that disciple had acquired a Pureheart Lotus Seed by fluke, but that lotus seed was taken by disciple as early as the Foundation Establishment.”

Apart from being able to be used as medicine, the Pure Heart Lotus was also able to be taken directly at the time of breaking the boundary to ward off the invasion of heart demons.

Taken at the time of foundation building, it could increase the success rate by 30%; taken at the time of impacting Jindan, it could increase the success rate by 10%; and even taken at the time of breaking through YuanYing, it also had a certain effect, and was quite precious.

When Xu Chuniang entered the Little Ze Realm, she was only at the ninth level of Qi cultivation, but when she came out, she was already at the Foundation Establishment cultivation level, so it was reasonable for her to have taken the Lotus Seeds of the Pure Heart.

The Jindan Elder felt that it was a pity that she had used the precious Pure Heart Lotus Seed when she was only at Foundation Establishment, this female disciple was really a waste.

The only thing is that the spirit was originally obtained by her, and it was taken early, so it is meaningless to say anything else.

He returned the storage ring to Xu Chuniang, his eyes looking to the side of the panicked Gu Letian, a hint of displeasure in his tone.

“Falsely accusing others out of cynicism towards fellow disciples, go to the main peak’s Palm Penalty Division yourself to receive your punishment.”

Gu Le Tian’s face turned white, if he really went to the Palm Torture Division, he would have been convicted of this crime.

As a Dan Peak Senior Brother, he had lost face, and he still didn’t know how his master would blame him.

He hardened his head and begged for mercy, “Elder, I know that I am wrong, I beg you to be lenient and spare me this time, I really don t have the intention, who can know that Xu …… s senior uncle, at the time of the breakthrough, he ate the lotus seed?”

The Jindan Elder was unmoved and spoke in a faint voice, “Whether you are intentional or unintentional, the clan rules are not a setup, you refuse to go to the Palm Penalty Division, do you want the people in the Palm Penalty Division to take you over?”

Gu Letian winced and didn’t dare to say anything more.

If it really came to the point where the Palm Torture Division came to take him, the consequences would only be worse than they are now.

Xu Chuniang coldly watched Gu Letian’s disillusioned back as he left, his heart not rippling.

If she hadn’t accidentally gotten the walnut world gifted by the Endless Mountain Soul, that Pure Heart Lotus Seed, she would have really looked for an opportunity to eat it.

Once she showed the Pure Heart Lotus Seed to the public, the sect would only make her forcefully hand it over. After all, this kind of spiritual object was not something that could be obtained at leisure.

Her cultivation of the first foundation level was simply not enough to look at in front of a group of Jindan elders, where would she be able to keep the lotus seed?

As for the Soul Nurturing Wood, although it was obtained from within the Little Zephyr Realm, it was an item gifted by the female ruler of the tomb.

While obtaining this item, she had fulfilled the female monarch’s last wish, destroying the four-winged flying serpent and the bizarre sorcery.

So by hiding the Soul Nourishing Wood and the Pure Heart Lotus, Xu Chuniang did not have a mental burden.

“Don’t think about it, that Gu Letian just can’t see you well.” Kong Huan came up and patted Xu Chuniang’s shoulder.

“The other two have already left first, let’s go up to the main peak together. Sigh, I really don’t want to call you Uncle Xu, but there’s no way, who let you build your foundation first?”

Xu Chuniang was a bit puzzled, “Going to the main peak to do what?”

Kong Huan rolled his eyes and was about to speak when his gaze fell to suddenly Xu Chuniang’s face, “Huh, how come your birthmark is gone?”

After Xu Chuniang built her foundation, he was busy hiking and didn’t pay attention to it, so he only found out now that the birthmark on her face was gone.

“After building the foundation, it naturally disappeared.”

Xu Chuniang said without much care.

When she was young, she had complained that the heavens were unjust, giving her this ugly and striking birthmark.

But blame is meaningless, when can not change, can only choose to accept.

So what if her face was flawed, as she became stronger step by step, the voice about her birthmark appeared less and less.

More voices were discussing her feats, cultivation and spirit weapons.

Kong Huan nodded indistinctly, “Yes, building a basic is the process of washing the marrow and removing the bones, removing the clutter, and it’s not surprising to be able to remove this tiny birthmark.”

“What did you say earlier about going to the main peak?”

Kong Huan slapped his head, “I forgot that you are an outer disciple, every time after the closure of the Little Zephyr Realm, all those who have gained recognition from the Sacred Mountain will have to make a trip to the Main Peak to recount the process in detail. Of course, if it involves personal privacy, one can also have reservations.”

Fearing that Xu Chuniang wouldn’t understand, he added, “The sect does this because it wants to discover some patterns in it, so that future disciples will have a greater chance of getting the treasures. The bits and pieces about the Sacred Mountain were accumulated in this way.”

Xu Chuniang nodded and followed Kong Huan’s lead, walking to where a stage boat was located.

Kong Huan introduced, “This stage boat is set up by the various peaks of the Inner Sect for the convenience of qi practicing disciples, although Uncle Xu has already built his foundation, but I think he hasn’t yet learned the art of sword-riding, so it’s just as well that he can use them to walk on his own, and he only needs to pay a certain amount of spirit stones.”

Xu Chuniang swept a glance, here all kinds of walking tools are available, smaller ones such as paper kites, paper cranes, larger ones like flying shuttles, flying boats, everything.

Next to them stood stone tablets that told of their usage as well as the rental price, making it clear at a glance.

Kong Joy said cheerfully, “This paper crane only requires five spirit stones to use once, which can be called a good price. And the ride experience is also very good. The downside, is that it’s a bit slow.”

After paying five spirit stones to the Foundation Establishment cultivator who was sitting in the stage boat, he took a one-person tall paper crane, injected wind spirit qi into the formation, and excited it.

All of a sudden, the paper crane was like it came to life, its wings stretched out, and then it even lifted its wings and took off into the air.

Xu Chuniang went up and paid the spirit stone, and similarly received a paper crane, injecting it with wind spirit energy.

“It is strictly forbidden to fight with others while riding the paper crane. If you damage the paper crane, you will have to pay for it.”

After the Foundation Establishment cultivator gave a routine and customary explanation, he no longer paid attention to the two.

“Uncle Xu doesn’t recognize the road, follow me.”

After saying that, Kong Huan took the first step to sit on the paper crane and headed towards where the main peak was located.

Seeing this, Xu Chuniang recalled the method of controlling the paper crane that she had seen earlier and followed Kong Huan after sitting on the paper crane.
