You think I have mixed spiritual roots? I became an immortal through a spirit gourd, so what are you

"What's going on? It's been half a month. Could Chen Huai'an have died in this mine?" Su Wanying and Huang Kunlin searched all over the mine but couldn't find Chen Huai'an. It was as if he had disappeared without a trace.

"This guy deserved to die, but it's not easy to explain to Senior Sister Qin." Huang Kunlin frowned.

"There is a lot of Yin energy in this mine, especially deep inside. If Chen Huai'an is alright, he should appear in the next few days. With his Qi Refining Realm cultivation, he can't stay inside for long."

"Look, isn't that Chen Huai'an? He's alive and well! What kind of useless idiots are these?" Su Wanying suddenly saw Chen Huai'an's figure at the entrance of the mine. At this moment, her feelings were very complicated. She hoped that Chen Huai'an was dead, but she also hoped that he could live.

"It really is this guy. Could it be that he found a place to hide in this mine and only came out now? He didn't complete the task of eliminating the Yin Puppet at all." Huang Kunlin also saw Chen Huai'an.

"Junior Sister Su, let's go and meet this guy. If he dares to cheat and fails to hunt down a single Yin Puppet, I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget."

Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of the mine, surrounded by several outer disciples.

All disciples who come out of the mine, whether they are outer or inner disciples, must undergo inspection.

They did this to prevent these disciples from privately mining spirit stones for their own enrichment.

"Chen Huai'an, take out your storage bag so we can check it. You only come out once every two weeks. Are you secretly mining spirit stones in there instead of hunting Yin Puppets?" Huang Kunlin immediately scolded Chen Huai'an arrogantly as soon as he saw him.

"This is my storage bag." This is a rule of the sect. Chen Huai'an knew that the other party harbored strong hostility towards him, so he naturally wouldn't go against the other party. As long as everything was within the scope of the sect rules, he was not afraid at all.

Besides, he wasn't hiding to mine spirit stones; he also hunted down some Yin puppets, which were used to complete his mission.

"Chen Huai'an, the Yin puppets in the mine are extremely powerful. Several outer disciples have already perished inside. I know you can't complete the mission. Just beg me, and I'll plead with Senior Brother Huang to let this go." Looking at Chen Huai'an's indifferent eyes, Su Wanying was filled with rage. She wanted to crush him under her feet. She was almost obsessed; she just wanted to see Chen Huai'an bow his head and grovel before her.

This guy used to be someone she looked up to in Huai Shu Village, but now? She wants to make Chen Huai'an look up to her, to let him know how wrong his decision was.

"Please, beg you for what? Or have you forgotten your roots and now want to show off your superiority in front of me?" Chen Huai'an stared coldly at the other party.

"Chen Huai'an, who do you think you are? What right do you have to talk to your junior sister like that?" Huang Kunlin immediately reprimanded Chen Huai'an when he saw his arrogant and unruly demeanor.

"Junior Sister already gave you a chance, but you didn't appreciate it. If you can't complete the task later, don't blame your senior brother for being impolite."

After Huang Kunlin finished speaking, he winked at one of his followers, and immediately an outer disciple pointed at Chen Huai'an and berated him. "This guy is a piece of trash. Many outer disciples have already gone in and out of the mine two or three times, fighting to the death to kill the Yin Puppet. But what about this guy? He's been hiding here until now. He's just a coward who's afraid of death."

The outer disciples who had originally gathered in the mine were just watching the show and observing, but now that they heard that Chen Huai'an was hiding in the mine and refusing to come out, they were all filled with righteous indignation.

"Senior Brother Huang, this guy must be severely punished. He's hiding in the mine, not hunting Yin Puppets, but definitely stealing spirit stones from the mine to cultivate. He's a parasite on the sect."

……

Huang Kunlin and his henchmen only said a few words, and Chen Huai'an immediately became a public enemy.

This was an unwritten rule for these outer disciples, but now it was out in the open, and the sect had to find a way to stop it, otherwise how could they manage the mine?

The disciples who work in the mines have daily tasks and must enter and exit the mines every day. If they are not severely punished, everyone will follow Chen Huai'an's example and hide in the mines to mine spirit stones and cultivate on their own. How will they manage the mines in the future?

Moreover, the disciples of the Yin Sha Sect are currently outside the mine, eyeing it covetously. In order to plunder a large amount of cultivation resources, the sect has given them a strict order to speed up the mining of spirit stones in the mine and hand them over to the sect.

"Have you all finished talking?" Chen Huai'an asked with a mocking expression as he looked at the chattering crowd.

"Boy, why don't you surrender and accept the sect's judgment?" An outer disciple saw Chen Huai'an and actually showed a mocking look, as if he looked down on them, which immediately angered the other party.

"Surrender and accept the sect's judgment? That's just wishful thinking on your part. Who saw me slacking off? Who saw me cultivating in the mine instead of hunting Yin Puppets? Who? Step forward!" Chen Huai'an was neither humble nor arrogant. He looked around and coldly stared at those sycophants.

"I saw you enter the mine and haven't come out. You've been in this mine for more than half a month without a single injury. What else could it be but hiding?" An outer disciple immediately pointed at Chen Huai'an and reprimanded him.

Seeing these sycophants, Chen Huai'an frowned repeatedly.

Chen Huai'an had never seen this person before. Although he had been slacking off for a few days in the mine, he had not forgotten why he came to the mine. If it weren't for his good fortune and strength, he would have died in the mine long ago. He fought for the sect, but these so-called high-ranking officials deliberately targeted and smeared him.

"Shut up, all of you. You have no right to speak here. If you want to frame me, produce concrete evidence instead of just spouting your wild fantasies and making malicious guesses." Chen Huai'an was truly enraged.

These people want to suppress and frame him, so today he will give these hypocritical bastards a good slap in the face and let them know that he, Chen Huai'an, is not someone to be trifled with.

Chen Huai'an doesn't cause trouble or make a scene, but that doesn't mean he's afraid of trouble.

These people have already bullied him to the point of no return, so he will not sit idly by and wait to die.

"These are the Yin puppets I killed in the mine. According to the sect's rules, killing a second-tier Yin puppet from the Yin Sha Sect rewards you with 500 sect contribution points and 100 low-grade spirit stones. I have three second-tier Yin puppets here." Chen Huai'an directly poured out the Yin puppet corpses from his storage bag.

"What? How is this possible? How could he possibly kill three second-tier Yin Puppets? Didn't he just break through to the Qi Refining Realm? How could he have the strength to kill three Yin Puppets?!" The three Ice Sunflower corpses lay on the ground, and the surrounding crowd erupted in a series of ear-piercing exclamations. These onlookers stared at Chen Huai'an in astonishment.

Such a record could not possibly belong to an outer disciple who had just broken through to the Qi Refining Realm; only inner disciples who had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm possessed that kind of strength.

Could it be that this guy is playing dumb to fool others and has already successfully reached the Foundation Establishment stage? How is that possible?
