Another day passed, and early the next morning, Ma Long was still asleep when he was woken up by Yin Ningxuan and forced out of bed.
"Hey, hey! Be gentle, I'm seriously injured!"
When he first stepped off the ground, Ma Long could hardly stand still. Although Yin Ningxuan acted roughly, she patiently helped Ma Long balance his body and helped him adapt to walking on the ground.
"You've been lying on the bed for a month. If you don't get off the ground, you won't be able to walk anymore!"
Ma Long thought to himself that if Yin Ningxuan was a teacher, she would definitely not be a gentle teacher, but it was undeniable that she was a good teacher. Under Yin Ningxuan's guidance, Ma Long quickly adapted to the land and the feeling under his feet, and he sighed in his heart
: I can barely even walk to take care of myself. It’s really scary when I think about it. If I become disabled after fighting for the position of leader, wouldn’t it be a small gain for a small gain?
"Okay!" Yin Ningxuan let go of her hand and let Ma Long control her body and move around, "Now take two steps in the yard!"
The two of them arrived in the small courtyard outside the house. Yin Ningxuan was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea and watching Ma Long wandering around the courtyard alone.
After practicing for about an hour, Ma Long finally felt that he could regain control of all the body's functions. Even the dry golden elixir in his body seemed to be moistened by a trace of fairy energy. His health was finally recovering.
Seeing that Ma Long was finally able to walk freely, Yin Ningxuan came out of the pavilion and said, "Go and change your clothes. We will go to the discipline room immediately. The fifth elder has been waiting for you to wake up."
"Go now?" Ma Long was still quite reluctant. After all, he was going to accept punishment, and no one wanted to go. "How about tomorrow, I just--"
"No, now!" Yin Ningxuan rejected Ma Long's proposal, and forced him to go back and change his clothes, and then the two of them left the courtyard together.
Walking on the streets of the sect, it seems that nothing has changed even after a month of absence. If there is any change, you are the attitude of everyone in the sect towards Ma Long.
In the past, Ma Long was not welcomed in the sect. It was good to be ignored wherever he went. When he met those rude disciples, he would also be looked down upon by them. But now, wherever Ma Long goes, he will hear people passing by around him.
The disciples respectfully shouted "Senior Brother Yinlong!"
However, if you think about it, you can understand that Ma Long was the final winner in the competition related to the future heir of the sect. Nine times out of ten, he will be the leader of the next generation. Who dares to give the future leader a look, that is
I don’t want to hang out with the sect anymore. What’s more, Yin Junqi has already left the sect on his own initiative and has completely withdrawn from the competition. To take a step back, even if Ma Long cannot inherit, it is 80% that Yin Ningxuan will inherit. They are husband and wife, and the result is still
Same.
After a while, the two finally arrived at the Discipline Room not far from the Elder Pavilion. The Discipline Room looked very simple from the outside, but it occupied a relatively large area. The disciple guarding the door outside respectfully allowed the two of them to enter, and said
The fifth elder has been waiting for a long time.
Just after the two entered the discipline room, other disciples took the initiative to invite the master and other elders to come. This was also the fifth elder's order.
After a while, the seats in the main hall of the Discipline Room were already packed. And the person at the top was not the head master, but the fifth elder!
The sect implements a decentralized system. Even if the head or the first elder comes to the discipline room, he can only take second place - and the first elder and the second elder have not come. They have been practicing in seclusion for half a year.
It's been many months.
"Yinlong, how is your health?" Headmaster Yin Tiancheng was the first to ask.
Ma Long saluted the elder and said respectfully: "It's no longer serious. Thank you Master for asking for the life-saving elixir for this disciple." To be honest, Ma Long was really grateful to the Master this time. I heard that he
Ma Long was deeply moved by deigning to go to Danzong to seek medicine.
"Haha, that's right. Just be fine." The boss Yin Tiancheng is so devoted to Ma Long, of course he has selfish motives - he does all this for his daughter! If Ma Long has a bad luck, her daughter will also suffer the same.
, who made their bodies so special, and now they have been practicing together for many days and can no longer be separated.
At this time, the selfless fifth elder intervened: "Since you are no longer seriously injured, just accept the punishment given to you two last time. Do you have any objections?"
"Yes!" Ma Long and Yin Ningxuan said in unison.
"?" The fifth elder was shocked. He didn't expect that the two of them would dare to question themselves at the same time. This kind of thing has not happened in the sect for a long time. Not to mention the two juniors, even the head of the sect treated him with great courtesy. However,
The Fifth Elder was not an unreasonable person, so he calmly asked the two of them if they had any objections. If what they said was reasonable, they would consider the punishment.
In fact, when they arrived, Yin Ningxuan had colluded with Ma Long. The two talked in agreement and tried to brush aside the previous events. The main point was that Yin Ningxuan had already thought of various countermeasures in this month.
So Yin Ningxuan took the lead and said:
"The fight a month ago was set by the great elder. Compared with him, the old man also wanted to give us two a chance to atone for our sins. If we can win, the merits and demerits will be equal, and if we lose, we will be punished twice. For
We have no objection to the decision made by the great elder. Now, the two of us have completed the test given to us by the great elder and won the competition a month ago. We do not ask for any reward, as long as we can overcome the previous punishment.
Can."
Although Yin Ningxuan's words were simple, but a great elder was involved, the situation was different. After all, that fight was the decision of the great elder. If the previous punishment is implemented again, then what will happen?
A battle in the field seems a bit redundant. Besides, the Great Elder is currently in retreat. Even if you want to ask him to come out and say a word, no one dares to question the previous Great Elder's decision. On this point, the Fifth Elder is indeed given to
Stumped.
To plead for mercy, the father and daughter have to fight. After the daughter has finished speaking, of course the father also has to say a few words.
Then, the leader Yin Tiancheng said: "It is indeed wrong for the two of them to break into the black forest, but the two of them have proven their abilities with their actions on the field, which is also a great blessing for our sect. Although they even passed
The great elder's consideration, of course, cannot be without punishment at all. In this way, the spiritual fruit picked from the black forest will be confiscated and not given to the two of them. It will be kept until next year's competition to reward outstanding disciples.
This is the punishment for them both. Fifth Elder, what do you think?"
"I don't think so!" The fifth elder refuted the leader's words mercilessly in public, "We didn't confiscate the spirit fruit, but the final ownership of the spirit fruit would be the same? Now that Yin Junqi has left the sect,
It sounds nice to say that rewards will be given to outstanding disciples in next year's competition. I want to ask, besides the two of them, who else can compete for this spiritual fruit in next year's competition? In the end, the spiritual fruit was not obtained by the two of them? It was just a delay.
After a year of waiting, I still escaped punishment. Head, Ningxuan is your daughter, so you can protect her like this, right?"
After the fifth elder saw through his intention, the leader smiled sheepishly. He glanced at his daughter, the look in his eyes seemed to say - I have tried my best!
