"When Senior Sister smiles, life and death are unpredictable!"
"Apologize, apologize quickly, maybe you can still get a chance to survive!"
What do you mean? Isn't it enough for me to smile at you? Do you have to make a sour face for you to be satisfied?
"No more laughing!"
"Thanks to the seniors of Xuanling Sect, we don't have to die today!"
"Long live Senior Sister, long live Senior Sister!"
These guys...how did they get trained like this?
Walking and being talked about all the way, Tang Xin arrived in front of the arena that was being built.
Because it is a competition that everyone from the sect's direct disciples to the outer disciples can participate, and there are so many people, many arenas have to be built in advance to meet the requirements of the competition.
The person in charge of supervising this work is an inner sect disciple named Fang Ling, who has reached the third level of foundation building.
Tang Xin once tried to recruit her for his own use, but was rejected. The other party's reason was "don't get involved in factional fighting."
There would be no good ending if she offended Senior Sister Tang, so she took this tough job.
According to the requirements, 30% of the arena construction work should be completed by today, but in fact only 20% has been completed.
Although a ten percent difference does not affect the overall situation, it is an excellent reason to punish the person responsible.
"Senior Sister Tang..."
Fang Ling broke out in a cold sweat and came over to apologize.
She was a well-known figure among the inner sect disciples. She would not have her cultivation abolished or be thrown to the foot of the mountain to sweep the floor, but she would inevitably be scolded and humiliated, or punished by her husband.
Hey, look how scared this kid is. It’s just a slight delay in the construction schedule, it’s not a big deal.
It would be bad if such a cute girl exhausted herself.
"you……"
Tang Xin was just about to say "You did a good job", but before she could say anything, a "ding" sound rang in her mind.

Chapter 3 Scold Me, Big Sister
[Option 1: Push Fang Ling down in public, and then do something unspeakable.]
[The success rate is 1%, and you will be rewarded with a demonic spirit. If you fail, you will be killed. ]
[The Devil's Desire Spirit Body is a more powerful talent than the Hidden Yuan Sword Body. Once obtained, it can increase the speed of cultivation tenfold! ]
Why is the first option always like this, and the reward is even higher than overthrowing Su Ling... Is it because this is more challenging to the bottom line of shame? After being completely shameless, you can get a talent that is more powerful than the protagonist?
If he were a gambler, he might really try it!
However, I don’t have this hobby…
[Option 2: Slap Fang Ling in public and angrily yell at her, "You useless person, you can't even handle such a small matter!"]
[90% chance of success, a bottle of Qi-restoring pill as reward, no reward for failure, and a 10% chance of being slapped in the face.]
That’s enough, the next one should be the normal option, right?
[Option 3: Say "You are a piglet" to Fang Ling in public.]
[99% chance of success, a lollipop as reward, no reward for failure, and a 1% chance of being spat on.]
Isn't this the same as the previous option? Can you come up with something new?
"You're a piggy."
She patted Fang Ling's shoulder.
"?"
The inner disciples, feeling nervous, were stunned at first, then shocked, and then puzzled after hearing the words "Elder Sister who is capable of all kinds of evil".
Is there any direct connection between my failure to complete the task and the fact that I am a pig?
Wait, is this some kind of code? Something like "take care of yourself", "you're dead", "come to my room tonight"?
Sister Tang always has a hidden meaning behind everything she says and does, so if something sounds confusing, it means she has already planned a series of steps to follow!
Seeing the senior sister coming, the disciples in charge of setting up the arena no longer dared to be lazy, and without saying a word, they speeded up their hands.
Xuanling Sect is a sect dominated by female practitioners. Setting up an arena is a rough job so the process is slow. It cannot be blamed on Fang Ling’s poor supervision.
Of course, in the eyes of the "evil master sister", this is not right...
[Complete the main quest and receive the melee secret book "Five Elements Fist" as a reward.]
"Senior Sister Tang," Fang Ling bowed her head and said, "I will definitely complete the task next!"
"Well, come on, do your best..."
“It will definitely be done!”
"Okay, okay, got it..."
"I……"
"I say," Tang Xin frowned and said in a serious tone, "I know!"
"Yes, I understand. Thank you, Senior Sister!"
Do you have to put on a cold face to feel at ease? Is it not possible to treat everyone gently?
……
With a lollipop in his mouth, Tang Xin was on his way back when he was stopped by a disciple sent by the Seventh Elder to deliver a message.
The Seventh Elder, Su Ling's master, is currently at the Nascent Soul stage. Among the sect's senior leaders, he is at the bottom of the list.
The levels of cultivation in the Jiuzhou Continent, from low to high, are Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Elixir, Nascent Soul, Soul Slaying, Dao Integration, and Tribulation Crossing.
Generally speaking, if one wants to become an elder of a large sect like the Xuanling Sect, one needs to have the cultivation level of the Soul-Slaying Stage.
In the Soul-Slaying Stage, one can split mountains and seas and change the world with a single thought.
If one wants to become the head of a sect, one must have the cultivation level of the Hedao period. The power of the Dao is unfathomable and one can suppress and kill spirits with a flip of the hand.
It sounds a bit inappropriate that he can serve as a core elder at the Nascent Soul stage.
but……
She is Su Ling's master, the protagonist's master, how could she be as simple as she seems!
The Ten Thousand Swords Spirit Body can master any sword technique immediately, and can wield any spirit sword as easily as an arm when it is in its hand.
And her special move, "Ten Thousand Swords Immortal Killing Formation", can kill even a cultivator in the Soul-Slaying Stage.
It was precisely because of this talent that she was able to detect the peculiarity of Su Ling with just a slight sense.
You know, the Hidden Yuan Sword Body is a magical talent that even the big guys in the Hedao period can't see through. If the protagonist doesn't want to expose it, it is almost impossible for outsiders to know it.
"The Seventh Elder would like to invite you, Senior Sister, to come over."
The disciple who was in charge of delivering the message whispered.
As a core elder, he had to use the word "please" to refer to Tang Xin, a disciple. This was because the Seventh Elder was not in charge of affairs within the sect, had almost no real power, and had an average status. Secondly, it was because of Tang Xin's importance to the Xuanling Sect.
In the eyes of the sect's top leaders, the status of an elder who doesn't care about anything and a chief who cares about everything are similar.
If I were to say he was afraid, of course he wasn't. No matter how he bullied Su Ling, the Seventh Elder would not dare to attack him.
But what good would it do to offend a big boss who can fight against higher-level opponents?
Besides, I don’t want to bully the protagonist anymore...
"Lead the way."
Soon, Tang Xin was brought to Jingxin Peak where the Seventh Elder lived.
Among all the core elders' hills, Jingxin Peak has the worst environment. There are no birds singing or flowers blooming, no bluestone or flowing water, and the spiritual energy content in the world is also average.
"Disciple Tang Xin, I pay my respects to the Seventh Elder."
Tang Xin bowed outside the door.
"come in."
In the room, a beautiful woman in a white robe, with a lazy look, was lying on her side on the bamboo bed, with her head resting on her hand, looking straight at her.
"Meet Elder Linghua."
Different from Su Lingai's argumentative personality, Elder Linghua is a very "casual" person. Unless something touches her sore spot, she doesn't bother to care about ordinary things.
I have to say, her body is exactly as vile as I remember it...ah, no, it's enchanting.
"You are quite polite today," Elder Linghua glanced at her lazily, "unlike usual times when you stare at me like a scumbag. To be honest, I am a little uncomfortable with this."
"Master Sister Tang" really hated the Seventh Elder. There were several times when she almost tried to get rid of Su Ling secretly, but failed because of the Seventh Elder's intervention.
As we all know, giving the protagonist room to develop is equivalent to slow death. Once the protagonist develops and has the magic weapon in hand, the villain will have no chance of turning the tables.
"Elder, you are joking," Tang Xin replied politely, "When I usually look at you, I always look at you with praise..."
To be honest, such a good figure should be praised.
"Hmm? Did you take the wrong medicine today?" Ling Hua sat up from the bed and looked at her suspiciously. "I've said it so bluntly, why don't you scold me? Why don't you say something sarcastic?"
Why should I be so sarcastic? Why should I scold a big man who is comparable to the realm of the Sword God? Do villains have to be so stupid?
Ding!
