After the cannon fodder sect accepted me as a disciple, all members ascended

Chapter 62: Already Opposites
Si Nian withdrew his gaze, smiling wryly.

"Why, didn't Shen Rou tell you when she got back?"

Seeing Song Shubai's doubtful expression, Si Nian said calmly, "It seems not. How strange! I thought someone like her who would cry to someone at every turn would tell you no matter what happened."

"It seems that in her heart, you are not her support either."

Shen Rou was startled, then hurriedly explained: "Sister Si, what are you talking about! In my heart, whether it is Second Brother or Third Brother, they are both very important! I... I just don't want to..."

Without waiting for Shen Rou to finish, Si Nian spoke bluntly.

"What you think is none of my business."

Then she looked at Song Shubai again, and for a moment, she curled the corners of her mouth.

"It doesn't matter. If she doesn't tell you, I'll tell you."

"I've already told you, I'm not your senior sister. If I hear any of you calling me that again, I'll... rip his mouth apart."

Si Nian stared into Song Shu's white eyes without fear.

Song Shubai was stunned, although he had heard that this senior sister had become very different now.

But that was all hearsay after all. Now I actually heard her say such words to me...

In my heart, it really is...

Thinking of this, Song Shubai calmed down and said, "I wanted to come and say hello, but now..."

Song Shubai pulled Shen Rou over and said, "It seems that only strength can speak. However, in a competition, swords have no eyes, so you better be careful."

"I think some people have the time to manage others, why not manage themselves first? The whip at my waist is not vegetarian."

Yu Jiaojiao snorted coldly.

Song Shubai didn't say anything, but at least he bowed to a few people.

Then he pulled Shen Rou aside.

"Third senior brother..." Shen Rou frowned slightly.

Song Shubai shook his head and said calmly, "Did you succeed?"

"Um…"

"Did you succeed in anything?" He Lianqing was a little confused as he listened to the conversation between the two.

Song Shubai didn't look up, but took out a small bottle from his arms, took out a pill from it, and handed it to Shen Rou.

"People only know that the Guiyuan Sect is best at alchemy, but alchemy practitioners have to collect spiritual plants. The better the spiritual plants, the more likely they are to be guarded by demonic beasts. So naturally, they also have their own set of methods to deal with demonic beasts."

"Among them, Beast Lure Powder is also the one they use most often."

The more He Lianqing listened, the wider his eyes opened.

He knew that with just a little bit of the Beast Attracting Powder, a large number of monsters could be attracted away.

The monks can take advantage of this opportunity to pick the spiritual plants.

Recalling Shen Rou's action of patting Si Nian as soon as she went up, combined with what Song Shubai said now.

He Lianqing looked at Shen Rou in disbelief, "You put the Beast-Attracting Powder on her?!"

"I..." Shen Rou was frightened by his expression.

"It was me who asked my junior sister to do this. What is this, second senior brother?" Song Shubai said sternly.

"Junior brother, this time we are entering a great secret realm, and the monsters inside are at least level four."

"If you throw the beast-luring powder on her and it triggers a beast tide, what's the difference between that and sending her to her death?!"

He Lianqing's tone became faster and faster, and by the end, he already seemed to want to go find Si Nian.

But Song Shubai grabbed his hand.

"As long as they admit defeat and leave the secret realm early, nothing will happen! Brother, I'm not targeting her, but one of the four major sects must be eliminated first."

"This is what the competition is all about."

He Lianqing looked at his junior brother in disbelief, as if he had suddenly become someone he didn't recognize.

"Senior Sister... has also sincerely protected you." He Lianqing said with difficulty.

"Yes." Song Shubai didn't feel the slightest bit of guilt, and then said indifferently: "She also sincerely protected you."

This one sentence made He Lianqing speechless.

He looked up, trying to see Song Shubai's gaze, but out of the corner of his eye he saw the golden silk soft armor that Shen Rou was wearing. That was... a gift from Si Nian.

That was Si Nian, who could only draw Qi into the body, and gave it to him as he was about to break through to the foundation-building stage.

But now, Si Nian would point the sword at himself without hesitation.

How could it... suddenly become like this?
Song Shubai looked at He Lianqing and sighed, "Second Brother, whether it's us individually or the entire sect, we've already stood on the opposite side."

"I did this for the sake of the sect."

"Secondly, it's for you."

"Second Brother, can you really still point the tip of your sword at her?"

He Lianqing felt like he was struck by lightning when he heard this.

The whole person stood there in a daze.

Yes, they have long been strangers standing on opposite sides.

When Si Nian tried to push Shen Rou into the soul-devouring beast's mouth, he stabbed her without hesitation.

She has changed!

I... just wanted to teach her a lesson.

"After entering the secret realm, we can just let the monsters drive them back. There's no need for both sides to draw swords. Isn't that a good idea?"

Hearing Song Shubai's last words, He Lianqing's tightly clenched hands loosened weakly.

"I see."

And the other side.

"Junior sister, what are you thinking? Don't worry, I will definitely protect you! Monster beasts! I'm the best at it!"

Seeing that she was staring at Shen Rou, Yu Jiaojiao thought she was afraid.

He patted his chest and made the promise proudly.

"No...I just...felt a little weird."

"What's weird?"

"They clearly came a long time ago, but they had to wait until we were about to enter the secret realm to suddenly come to me and say all these inexplicable things... It just feels... weird."

"But what's so strange about it, I really can't tell."

Si Nian murmured.

Could it be that the people in the Lingxiao Sect just like to be treated coldly and like to be scolded by others?

Xie Wusheng came over and thought about it after hearing what Si Nian said.

Then he bumped her arm pretending to be nonchalant.

"Are you scared? It's okay. It's not impossible for you to stay with me when the time comes."

Si Nian rolled his eyes at her, but knew in his heart that he said this just to make himself relax.

So I didn't say anything back.

Mingchen patted her head as usual.

"It's useless to think too much. Anyway, we just need to be careful."

Everyone nodded.

At this moment, an elder who looked very immortal stood at the entrance of the secret realm.

With his appearance, the scene instantly became quiet.

Everyone listened quietly as he announced the rules.

It’s the same thing as Ye Rong said.

Finally, the elder waved his sleeves, and a photo stone and something like a smoke bomb appeared in everyone's hand.

"If you're defeated, you can send out a signal, and someone will respond. But at the same time, sending out a signal also means you're out of the game."

Seeing that everyone standing below seemed to understand, the elder continued.

"Now, the competition begins!"
