Immediately, four female cultivators armed with weapons broke into the mountain temple.
All figures are graceful and beautiful.
The one who kicked the door first had his eyebrows raised.
She looks like she is in her thirties, but she is well-maintained and her skin is as smooth and tender as that of a twenty-year-old girl, but she still has a mature charm.
Lin Ji glanced twice subconsciously, and then felt a chill on the back of his neck.
"Does it look good?" Zhong Xiaoyan's voice sounded.
Lin Ji turned back, looking innocent.
"What's so interesting? I didn't even notice it. I was looking at the cultivation of those female cultivators."
Hearing this, Zhong Xiaoyan was stunned, and then her face turned slightly red, thinking that she had wronged Lin Ji, and she was speechless for a moment.
Lin Ji smiled at Zhong Xiaoyan, then looked at the female cultivators, his eyes especially lingering on the area below the neck and above the belly.
"It's really not small."
At the same time, Zhou Qian and Xiao Mei's expressions changed drastically.
"Elder Liu Yan, our husband and wife have never done anything to disgrace the Hehuan Sect. Why are you forcing each other like this?"
Elder Liu's expression was slightly cold. He looked deeply at Zhou Qian and Xiao Mei, and then glanced at Lin Ji and others, but he did not take them seriously.
Her eyes returned to Zhou Qian and Xiao Mei.
"Hand over the money, and I'll let you go." As he said that, Elder Liu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Now that we are blocking you, don't think about escaping. Just do as I say."
Zhou Qian remained silent. He had only joined the Hehuan Sect a few months ago and was really not familiar with these sect elders.
But Xiao Mei shook her head and said: "Elder Liu Yan, my husband earned all that money with his own ability! When he joined the family, he gave half of the money he brought from home, fifty thousand taels, to the sect. Isn't this enough?"
Liu Yan pursed his lips and said nothing, but put his hand on the sword at his waist.
Seeing this, Xiao Mei hurriedly added: "My husband has made it clear before that he has no intention of coveting the position of the sect leader. We, husband and wife, are just doing a small business to make ends meet, and we have no intention of fighting for power and profit."
"My wife is right! Elder Liu, both of us are unworthy figures. How could we possibly want to be the leader of the Hehuan Sect? This is just a joke made by the old leader before he left. It cannot be taken seriously."
Liu Yan seemed to know that he was in the wrong, and subconsciously did not dare to look at Zhou Qian and Xiao Mei, but he snorted coldly.
"Hmph! No matter how eloquent you are, today I have to..."
Before Elder Liu could finish speaking, she looked at the young man she didn't care about now and suddenly stood between them.
Elder Liu immediately wanted to scold him, but when he saw Lin Ji's unwavering gaze, he subconsciously took two steps back.
"Eye like lightning?!" Elder Liu was startled and looked at Lin Ji in confusion.
The lightning-like eyes she said did not mean that there was thunder in her eyes, but that monks with high cultivation levels had natural suppression over monks with low cultivation levels.
Especially for monks in the fifth realm who have not yet opened their souls.
Just one look made her in the fourth realm almost unable to bear it. The young man in front of her was definitely in the fifth realm!
Thinking of this, Liu Yan was a little surprised and horrified.
If such a young fifth-level person appeared in Xiangzhou, everyone would have known about it long ago, but the young man in front of her was unfamiliar to her.
"Who is this young gentleman...?" Liu Yan bowed respectfully.
"Mr., just sir, don't add small words, it will easily lead to misunderstanding." Lin Ji curled his lips.
He had just used his spiritual sense to explore for a long time, but before Lin Ji verified it, he couldn't believe it. He believed that these women were only in the third realm, and the leader Liu Yan was only in the fourth realm.
Can you become an elder in the sect at the fourth level?
It would be fine if other small sects paid it back. This Hehuan Sect has a great reputation and should not be so perfunctory under any circumstances.
They can even make ends meet as elders in the sect, so what else can't they make ends meet?
"I was listening for a long time just now. What did you say about the position of head of the Hehuan Sect?" Lin Ji asked with some gossip.
Liu Yan remained silent. This matter was related to the reputation of the Hehuan Sect, so naturally it could not be revealed at will.
Xiaomei was also a little hesitant.
Zhou Qian doesn't care about this.
This kid is a human spirit. After he discovered that Elder Liu seemed to be afraid of Lin Ji, although he couldn't figure out what was going on, he breathed a sigh of relief and saw a smile on his face again.
"Boss, the Hehuan Sect is so poor that it is about to eat dirt." Zhou Qian said with a grin.
As soon as he said this, Liu Yan looked at him angrily.
"Oh? What's going on?"
Zhou Qian smiled and narrowed his eyes: "The Hehuan Sect's sect inheritance is all about dual cultivation methods and bed techniques. The disciples in the sect are not good at cultivation, but they are all very good at pleasing people."
"The Hehuan Sect can still stand today because the sect often sends its disciples to major sects for marriage. As time goes by, the relationship between the Hehuan Sect in Xiangzhou becomes intertwined, and life is pretty good."
"Then what?" Seeing Zhou Qian shut up and show off, Lin Ji quickly praised him.
Zhou Qian nodded comfortably and continued: "More than a year ago, something big happened to the Hehuan Sect. A disciple who was married before ransacked her husband's house, a second-rate family, and then escaped."
"Because the disciple's methods were quite cruel, this incident caused a sensation in Xiangzhou, but it also brought with it the geniuses who had taken disciples of the Hehuan Sect. Everyone was in danger, fearing that they would follow in the same footsteps."
Hearing this, Lin Ji had already made some guesses.
"So, each sect has severed ties with the Hehuan Sect?"
"What's more, the Taiyi Sect had already announced at that time that if the abandoned disciple of the Hehuan Sect who escaped was not found, he would be punished by the Hehuan Sect."
Zhou Qian pointed to the sky.
"Since then, all the Hehuan Sect's businesses have been confiscated or destroyed. In addition, the disciples can't make a penny anywhere else except the brothel."
"So Lai Taiyi Sect has kept its promise. If you say you will be punished, you will be punished." Lin Ji couldn't help but chuckle twice.
Lin Ji never hesitated to take pleasure in other people's misfortunes.
At this moment, Liu Yan bowed slightly to Lin Ji again, but his tone was a little harsher: "Sir, this is the Hehuan Sect's own business. It's best for outsiders not to interfere."
"I'm here, and you still want to deal with Zhou Qian?" Lin Ji tilted his head in surprise.
Is this woman crazy? You won’t let me go until I kill her?
"I have no interest in your Hehuan Sect at all, but I guarantee Zhou Qian!" Lin Ji said firmly.
After hearing this, Liu Yan was silent for a long time, and then said: "In Xiangzhou, even the fifth realm cannot do whatever they want, and you can't protect them for a lifetime. The Hehuan Sect will always have an outcome to this matter."
After saying that, Liu Yan led the others and retreated despite the difficulty.
When they walked away, Lin Ji looked at Zhou Qian.
"The Hehuan Sect doesn't seem to be willing to give up."
Zhou Qian could only smile bitterly in return and bow to Lin Ji to thank him.
