Stop pretending, the seemingly useless junior sister is the real boss.

Lin Yao's clothes were completely shattered, and scarlet blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth, slowly dripping down his chin.

His shoulders trembled slightly, his spiritual energy was almost completely depleted, and every breath was accompanied by excruciating pain.

He couldn't understand how he, a master of the Golden Core stage, could be defeated by someone who had just broken through to the mid-stage of the Golden Core stage.

This is unreasonable!

But the facts are right in front of him, and even if he doesn't want to admit it, he can't change the fact that he lost.

He was filled with humiliation, but after looking at all the Yu Ling Peak disciples lying on the ground around him, he still reluctantly added Bai Xiaobai's name to the competition list.

Qin Liang was completely dumbfounded. The veins on his forehead throbbed, and all his arrogance shattered, leaving only utter humiliation and anger.

He couldn't accept the fact that he and Lin Yao had lost.

"You're just luckier than me, born into the Qin family before me. Back then, Father sent us to Qingxiao Sect to cultivate together. Even though my talent was more outstanding than yours, Shen Ji chose you. It's because you are the son of the Qin family patriarch's lawfully wedded wife, while I am just an illegitimate child who can't be seen in the light of day. That's why you were able to cultivate under Shen Ji's tutelage at Xiaoyao Peak."

"Father knew perfectly well that what I wanted to go to most was Xiaoyao Peak, but because of his ridiculous sense of guilt, he told me not to compete with you. So Qin Yuan, what the hell are you complaining about? Shouldn't I be the one feeling wronged?"

Qin Yuan's face was cold, and his eyes were icy, as if covered with a thin layer of ice.

After a moment, he sneered, "Feeling wronged? Have you forgotten what you did back then? And someone with such dishonest intentions as you, do you think Master would choose you?"

After saying this, he withdrew Wuwang and warned the disciples of Yuling Peak.

"Today's events serve as a simple lesson for you. If you dare to speak disrespectfully to the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak again, the next time it won't end so easily."

"Junior sister and junior brother, let's go."

Lin Yao and Qin Liang stared intently at the three departing figures, feeling a metallic taste rise in their throats once more.

As soon as they left the sight of the disciples of Yuling Peak, Qin Yuan and his two companions could no longer maintain their pretense of being safe and sound.

Yuanbao was slightly better, except that blood was seeping from the corner of his mouth.

Although Mu Wan and Qin Yuan won, their attack against a powerful enemy was a case of injuring the enemy a thousand while losing eight hundred of their own.

Their dantian was damaged, their spiritual energy flow was sluggish, and although their bodies appeared intact, they were already riddled with internal injuries.

Despite being injured, the three of them felt a great sense of relief.

They supported each other and smiled knowingly.

Yuanbao gave one Rejuvenation Pill from his storage bag to Qin Yuan and one to Mu Wan.

Although blood was still seeping from the corner of his mouth, he was all smiles.

"What a satisfying day! I've been wanting to get rid of those bastards from Yuling Peak for a long time, and today I finally got my revenge."

Mu Wan took the Rejuvenation Pill and swallowed it, then smiled and patted Yuanbao on the shoulder.

"Junior Brother did a great job today. Although you are only a Foundation Establishment disciple, you took on ten opponents at once, which really made our Xiaoyao Peak proud."

Qin Yuan took out two bottles of hemostatic pills from his storage bag and gave them to Mu Wan and Yuan Bao, with his usual carefree smile on his face.

"Fourth Junior Sister, you're pretty ruthless. Lin Yao is at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage, and you beat him so badly he's questioning his existence. Sigh, these useless guys from Yu Ling Peak are really something. Their Peak Master, Zhou Xuan, was beaten so badly by Master, and these guys still have the audacity to provoke us. Do you think wolves can raise puppies?"

"Third Senior Brother's words are rough but reasonable. However, since we're injured now, will it affect Junior Sister's plans?"

"It won't affect anything. Even if you have to crawl, your third senior brother will still crawl to the training ground to complete the task that junior sister gave me."

"Alright, Junior Brother Yuanbao, let's hurry back to Xiaoyao Peak. Maybe Junior Sister and Master have already returned."

"Alright, Third Senior Brother and Fourth Senior Sister, hold on tight, Yuanbao will take you back now."

......

After Bai Xiaobai and Shen Ji returned to Xiaoyao Peak, they discovered that the entire peak was deserted.

Even Ah Yin and Chang Ling have disappeared without a trace.

She couldn't help but worry, so she activated her communication with all things, and that's how she learned the truth from the chirping of a few birds.

It is said that his senior brothers and sisters went to Yuling Peak with murderous intent, apparently because of the sect's minor competition.

Just as Bai Xiaobai was worried, Ling Tian and Feng Ling returned with Qin Yuan and the other two, who were obviously injured. A Yin and Chang Ling were also with them.

Upon seeing his disciple injured, Shen Ji's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

"So those good-for-nothings from Yuling Peak were able to hurt you?"

Upon hearing Shen Ji's words, Qin Yuan and the other two lowered their heads in shame.

Feng Ling was impatient. Before Ling Tian could even explain, she raised her eyebrows and looked indignant.

"Those bastards from Yuling Peak, taking advantage of the fact that Yuling Peak was entrusted with assisting in this sect competition, are trying to bully others and put others down. They said that Junior Sister is just a piece of trash at the first level of Qi Refining and is not qualified to participate in this sect competition. Third Junior Brother and the others couldn't stand it, so they argued for a few words, and then a conflict broke out."

Ling Tian picked up the conversation.

"The fault lies with Yuling Peak this time, but although our junior brothers were injured, Yuling Peak didn't gain anything either. Lin Yao and Qin Liang were both defeated by our junior sister and junior brother. I suppose they won't dare to use any bad intentions in the sect's minor competition."

Hearing that Qin Yuan and the others were injured because of her, Bai Xiaobai felt extremely sad.

Seeing their pale faces and the bloodstains on their bodies made me feel even worse.

"I'm...I'm sorry, senior brothers and sisters, it's...it's my fault for dragging you into this."

Seeing their junior sister's eyes redden, Qin Yuan and the others immediately stood up straight and patted their chests to prove that they were fine.

"Junior Sister, don't worry, your senior brothers and sisters are fine. It's those good-for-nothings from Yu Ling Peak who got beaten half to death by us."

"Yes, junior sister, we're alright. You don't need to blame yourself. It wasn't you who was wrong, it was those bastards. Your senior sisters and brothers have already taught them a lesson for you."

"Junior Sister, it's just a minor injury. Don't worry, the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak will not be bullied, not a single one."

Seeing Yuanbao and the others wince in pain from patting their chests, yet still comforting themselves with warmth.

Bai Xiaobai couldn't hold back any longer.

Large tears welled up in her red eyes.

"But senior brothers and sisters, I think your safety is more important. So what if I'm called a waste? I don't care, I'm used to it. And what they said isn't wrong, I really am a waste. Even with the spiritual liquid given by Master, my cultivation level hasn't changed at all. Maybe I'll be stuck at the first level of Qi Refining for the rest of my life."
