The Path to Immortality

Just a few days later.

There were rumors among the outer sect that Su Lingyun and an inner sect senior brother were hanging out together in Luoyunfang and had a close relationship.

After learning about this, Fang Ping just laughed and didn't care at all, just taking it as a joke.

On the contrary, it is said that Senior Brother Yan Xu was greatly broken after hearing about it. He scolded the disciple who spread the rumor and went to Su Lingyun to verify it in person.

It is unknown what he saw at that time. After returning, he was hit hard and depressed.

Until he went to Tianxiang Tower in Luoyunfang.

Then he suddenly saw it and was reborn with full energy and full blood...

………

The next day.

The most important event for the outer sect disciples of Luoyang Sect finally arrived.

The two outer sect elders Wu and Huang, together with several deacons, began the process of clearing out the outer sect disciples under the supervision of an inner sect foundation-building uncle.

All disciples who had been in the sect for five years were summoned and their realms and cultivation were checked one by one.

Anyone who has not reached the third level of Qi training will be expelled from the outer sect!

In the crowd, Fang Ping and Zhou Yang's cultivation had already reached the standard, so they naturally waited calmly for the test.

Su Lingyun obtained a half-year extension through the inner sect senior brother, who seemed to have used his connections.

As for those disciples who did not reach the standard and had no connections, they could only pray for the best.

It took several hours for the deacons to complete the inspection of the outer sect disciples, called out all the disciples who did not meet the requirements, and crossed out their names one by one on the disciple list.

"Please be merciful, deacon, and give me another month!"

"I have done so many chores for the sect. Can I be extended for one year for my hard work?"

"Deacon, please be wise. I am only a few days away from breaking through the third level of Qi training."

However, no matter whether it was the tearful pleas or the despair, in front of the power of the inner sect foundation-building cultivator who was in charge of supervision, they all turned into dead silence.

The disciples who dared not disobey could only disperse with sad faces, pack their luggage, and prepare to go down the mountain before dark.

But at this moment, one of the expelled disciples touched the spiritual stone in the storage bag, gritted his teeth, and suddenly stood out from the crowd.

He said loudly: "Please ask the foundation-building uncle to make a decision for the disciple! The disciple's cultivation level has not reached the third level of Qi training, not because he did not practice hard on weekdays, but because a fellow disciple maliciously extorted the disciple's cultivation resources!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Many outer disciples and deacons present immediately looked over. The eyes were like a thorn in the back, making the disciple feel great pressure.

Even the inner sect foundation-building cultivator who was about to leave could not help but stop.

He first glanced at the two outer sect elders and several deacons who suddenly looked gloomy, and then said to the disciple: "According to the sect rules, you are no longer a disciple of my Luoyang Sect, you can call me senior... But, you said that someone among the outer sect disciples extorted your spirit stones? Do you have any evidence?"

Since they have been expelled from the sect, the disciple has no worries.

He made up his mind and told the story of Lu Shan and Ming Yulou's blackmail and extortion of spirit stones.

"Is this true?"

The foundation-building cultivator seemed dissatisfied and looked at the two elders Wu and Huang: "Such a big thing happened in the outer sect. Do you know about it? How did you deal with it?"

Elder Wu looked leisurely. He just sat in the outer sect and occasionally went to the preaching platform to preach. He rarely interfered in the management of the outer sect.

Elder Huang's face turned a little unfriendly. He cupped his hands and said, "Brother, please understand. This matter is handled by the Law Enforcement Hall. I have never heard of such a rumor."

The inner sect foundation-building cultivator did not comment and immediately found the sweaty Law Enforcement Hall steward.

"Uncle, there are indeed disciples who came to report, but this matter is mostly coincidental and there is no real evidence, so it is difficult to make a verdict."

The Law Enforcement Hall steward knew that the situation was not good, so he could only insist that it was an accident.

Then he looked around and called out, "Lu Shan? Ming Yulou? Where is the second disciple?"

Never expected that there would be a disciple who dared to expose this matter in front of the inner sect foundation-building cultivator and so many people. Lu Shan's face was pale and his eyes were flustered.

But under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he could only bite the bullet and walk out.

However, it would be better if Lu Shan did not come out. Once he showed up, it was like an enemy meeting, and he was particularly jealous.

Among the other disciples who were expelled, there were also several who were also blackmailed by Lu Shan. Seeing someone taking the lead, they didn't care about so many things and rushed out one after another.

"That's the man!"

"Reporting to the uncle, he and Ming Yulou have also used the same method to cheat disciples of spiritual stones!"

"Please help us, senior!"

If only one person pointed out, this matter can indeed be said to be an accident.

But four or five people stood up in a row, saying the same thing, even a fool would know that this must be the routine of Lu Shan and Ming Yulou, and they couldn't help but discuss it.

"I heard about it before, but I thought it was just a rumor. I didn't expect it to be true."

"He actually cheated his disciples of spiritual stones. He really deserves to be killed!"

"Why is Lu Shan the only one here? What about Ming Yulou?"

"I know Ming Yulou. He seems to have disappeared unexpectedly a few months ago."

"Missing? Maybe he knew this day would come, so he ran away because he was guilty?"

"Well, it's possible now."

Under the criticism of thousands of people, Lu Shan's mind went blank. He was so flustered that he even forgot to salute the foundation-building cultivators present. Anyone could see the fear and terror in his expression.

Seeing this, the inner sect foundation-building cultivators had already figured out the truth of the matter.

He finally showed some anger on his face: "Junior Brother Huang, you have been in charge of the outer sect for these years, and you have done a good job!"

Elder Huang's face suddenly turned green, then white, and he stomped his feet: "Junior Brother, I am indeed responsible for the oversight of this matter. Please rest assured, senior brother, anyone involved in the case will be severely punished and will not be tolerated!"

While expressing his position, he used his magic power to transmit a few words to the inner sect foundation-building cultivator.

I don't know what Elder Huang said, but the inner sect foundation-building cultivator's expression gradually eased.

He pondered for a moment and said: "Since Elder Huang said so, I am naturally willing to believe it. However, since this matter has been exposed, Elder Huang, you must give an explanation to the sect."

So, rather than warning, it is better to say that after a reminder, the inner sect foundation-building cultivator drove the escape light and left first.

After sending this person away, Elder Huang and other outer sect deacons finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked at the nervous disciples who reported him with murderous intent, as if he was examining them and was also angry.

However, these disciples were eventually dismissed. No matter how angry Elder Huang was, he would not lower his status and take it out on a few former disciples.

After looking for a few times and finding no clues, he could only look at Lu Shan viciously and announced in a cold voice: "He cheated his fellow disciples, extorted the cultivation resources of many disciples of the same sect, and deliberately deceived the monks of the Law Enforcement Hall, causing a bad influence. Come on, take Lu Shan down for me, interrogate him severely, find out the truth, and give an explanation to all the outer disciples!"

After hearing this announcement, Lu Shan's legs softened, and he couldn't help but sit on the ground and beg for mercy desperately.

However, no one cared about him at all.

Two disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall came up expressionlessly, took him down on the spot, collected his storage bag and magic tools, and dragged him into the prison cell of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Behind him, there were cheers from many outer disciples.
