How could Qin Shuirou not understand Yin-yangzi's decision to punish him? To put it bluntly, Yin-yangzi had no intention of severely punishing Bai Qiuran.
As Bai Qiuran had said last night, he was one of the two Chosen of the Taiyang Sect. As such, how could Yin-yangzi really punish him severely?
Even if Bai Qiuran's hand had really been injured last night, Yin-yangzi would only minimize the problem. In fact, if he had to make a choice, Yin-yangzi might even abandon the Sacred Palace group and save Bai Qiuran.
This was what it meant by strength determined everything. Bai Qiuran was a Chosen on the Saint Rankings and was more important than the Sacred Palace group. As such, Yin-yangzi could only choose the lesser of two evils.
As for the four prospective Holy Sons who were locked up in Sunless Mountain, it was just a symbolic punishment. At the same time, it could be said that they were scapegoats.
She was no longer the ignorant girl from before. Therefore, Qin Shuirou and the other two girls naturally understood the meaning behind this, including Gu Lingyao. However, the little girl had a straightforward personality and would speak her mind, unlike Baihua Fairy and Qin Shuirou, who were able to keep things to themselves.
As for the meaning behind Qin Shuirou's words, it was actually very simple. Now that Xiao Chen had returned safely, Yin-yangzi should also be aware of this matter. As such, once Xiao Chen knew about this matter, given Xiao Chen's temper, he would obviously not let it end peacefully.
Since the Taiyang Sect had chosen to protect Bai Qiuran, the Sacred Palace could only seek justice in their own way. Moreover, this was also a reminder to Yin-yangzi that when the time came, Xiao Chen and Bai Qiuran would definitely only be able to choose one out of the two. It would be impossible to choose both.
Similarly understanding Qin Shuirou's meaning, the old man did not say anything. He nodded slightly and left.
After the old man left, Qin Shuirou and the other two girls also looked at the so-called compensation given by Yin-yangzi. One had to admit that Yin-yangzi was indeed generous. The pills and talismans were all extremely precious. It could be said that Yin-yangzi had given enough compensation this time.
However, the three girls were not too interested in the compensation. After a casual glance, they put it away. Qin Shuirou called Qingyao over.
"Madam," Qingyao quickly walked into the hall and bowed to the three girls. Qin Shuirou immediately said.
"Qingyao, make a trip to the Sacred Palace immediately and inform my husband of what happened here. Tell him to hurry to the Taiyang Sect as soon as possible."
He didn't intend to conceal this matter. After all, the matter wasn't over yet. Bai Qiuran hadn't received any punishment after this incident, and this had undoubtedly aided his arrogance. In this way, how could Bai Qiuran who'd tasted the sweetness of victory give up just like that?
Therefore, the three girls wanted Xiao Chen to hurry to the Taiyang Sect as soon as possible before things got worse.
Women had to learn to rely on men. It was not to say that women who relied on men were vases. This was different. For example, the three girls clearly did not have the means or ability to deal with Bai Qiuran. If they still chose to hide the truth from Xiao Chen, they would truly be fools. If Bai Qiuran really succeeded, it would be too late for regrets.
Qingyao nodded when she heard Qin Shuirou's words. She then turned and hurried to the Sacred Palace.
The Taiyang Sect and the Sacred Palace had already constructed a teleportation formation, so it was not troublesome to travel between the two. She could reach the Sacred Palace on the same day from the Taiyang Sect.
While Qingyao was hurrying to the Sacred Palace, the old servant respectfully stood in front of Yin-yangzi in his cave dwelling. He told Yin-yangzi the details of his discussion with Qin Shuirou and the other two girls.
Yin-yangzi smiled faintly. "That little girl wants to tell me that I can only choose between Xiao Chen and Bai Qiuran."
"Indeed. Regardless of what will happen to Xiao Chen, Bai Qiuran will definitely not let Xiao Chen go. Even if we want to protect him, we can't guarantee that nothing will go wrong unless Xiao Chen never leaves the Taiyang Sect." The old servant nodded in agreement.
Whether it was Bai Qiuran or Xiao Chen, the two of them were like fire and water. There was no way to reconcile them.
Yin-yangzi did not seem to care too much about the situation. He smiled and said, "Fine, let them fight among themselves. After all, this is a world where the strong survive. However, I'm curious about Xiao Chen. Make the arrangements. If Xiao Chen arrives at the Taiyang Sect, immediately prepare for his talent test."
"Yes, but should we send someone to protect Xiao Chen? After all, he's no match for Bai Qiuran right now. "The old servant nodded, but then he asked if they should send someone to protect Xiao Chen.
"Not for now. I want to see what Xiao Chen's talent is like. Since Xiao Sheng and the others admire Xiao Chen so much, I'd like to see if Xiao Chen really is as heaven-defying as they say. If he's just ordinary trash, then let Bai Qiuran do as she pleases," Yin-yangzi said indifferently.
Yin-yangzi did not plan to protect Xiao Chen for now because he was not sure if Xiao Chen had what it took to make him give up on Bai Qiuran. If he did not, then he could only give Xiao Chen to Bai Qiuran to vent his anger.
Yin-yangzi's approach was very realistic, but also understandable. After all, the Central World was a place where the strong preyed on the weak.
After giving a few instructions, the old servant took his leave, and Yin-yangzi closed his eyes to cultivate again.
At the same time, the Sacred Palace. Qingyao didn't waste any time and quickly arrived at the Sacred Palace through the teleportation array. As soon as she arrived, she headed straight for the Dustless Sacred Hall.
In Xiao Chen's cave dwelling, Qingyao saw Xiao Chen.
At this moment, Xiao Chen was sparring with Princess Fengjue in the courtyard. Of course, it was more accurate to say that Princess Fengjue was giving Xiao Chen pointers. Long Yang was lazily drinking wine at the side, while Tian Yue was quietly watching from the side.
Xiao Chen and Princess Fengjue were exchanging blows in a special training field. But at this moment, Qingyao rushed in hurriedly. Sensing Qingyao's arrival, Xiao Chen and Princess Fengjue stopped fighting at the same time.
Xiao Chen turned to Qingyao with a smile. "Qingyao, why are you here? Weren't you with Shui Rou and the others at the Heavenly Yin Extreme Yang Sect?"
"Young Master, something happened …" Qingyao didn't say much. She directly told Xiao Chen what had happened at the Heavenly Yin Extreme Yang Sect.
After hearing Qingyao's story, the smile on Xiao Chen's face disappeared. His eyes were filled with icy killing intent as he said coldly, "Bai Qiuran, you're courting death …"
He never thought that Qin Shuirou and the others would encounter such a thing at the Heavenly Yin Extreme Yang Sect. The Hundred Flower Fairy, Green Bamboo, and Si Ju were almost killed by Bai Qiuran … Xiao Chen's heart burned with anger. He turned to Tian Yue and said, "Pack up. We're leaving for the Heavenly Yin Extreme Yang Sect today."
