Forced to Become a Pure and Innocent Female Apothecary to Cultivate Immortality Chapter 27 : Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Stopped Just in Ti

Lin Aoxue’s questioning imdiately silenced the previously lively Martial Arena.

One had to know that most of the Yunxia Sect’s inner disciples and high-ranking mbers were gathered here.

Yet the Sect Master’s personal disciple had publicly questioned her own master with an attitude that showed no respect for seniority. Such a matter was no small issue.

Everyone’s attention focused on the high platform. It felt as though sothing major was about to happen.

Lin Aoxue’s words caused Yun Yun to freeze for a mont. She had no idea what Lin Aoxue ant.

“Lin Aoxue, what do you an by that?” The elders seated beside Yun Yun all frowned deeply. In particular, the Great Elder Yun Ling imdiately spoke up in return.

At this mont, Lin Aoxue was burning with anxiety. Along the way, she had been thinking about why Ye Liuyun had disappeared.

Moreover, the disappearance had happened during the period of punishnt. In addition, during the past three years she had repeatedly requested that Yun Yun allow her to see Ye Liuyun, but Yun Yun had refused every ti.

Therefore, Lin Aoxue began to suspect whether the Yunxia Sect had expelled Ye Liuyun because her talent was insufficient, or whether sothing had happened to her.

But no matter which possibility it was, the result was unacceptable to Lin Aoxue.

Although Yun Yun was her master, the most important person in this world to her was Ye Liuyun. Even the parents of this world ranked behind.

After all, everything had an order of priority. Because she retained mories of her previous life, it was difficult for her to fully accept the family of this world.

Yun Yun frowned deeply as she looked at her disciple with confusion. She could not understand what had happened to Lin Aoxue.

“Aoxue, I do not understand what you are talking about. Calm down first. Speak properly. In front of so many people, do not put us in an awkward position,” Yun Yun said. She did not lose her temper imdiately.

Lin Aoxue glanced around with the corner of her eye and noticed that all the disciples were staring at her with dissatisfied expressions.

She took a deep breath and carefully explained what had happened.

“I went to find my sister today, but the people at her residence said that ever since you punished her to sweep the steps back then, she has never returned there. She has not gone back for three entire years. How do you explain that? Do you think I would not be anxious?”

After hearing this, Yun Yun finally understood. She frowned slightly and spoke again.

“I understand now. Calm down first. I will imdiately send soone to investigate and see what happened.”

But Lin Aoxue’s heart was filled with worry. How could she possibly calm down?

“No. You must give an explanation imdiately,” Lin Aoxue said, becoming increasingly agitated.

Lin Aoxue had repeatedly spoken in a disrespectful manner. The Great Elder Yun Ling, who oversaw the sect’s Law Enforcent Hall, could no longer tolerate it.

“Lin Aoxue, no matter what has happened, as a disciple you should not behave with such a lack of etiquette and disregard for hierarchy,” Yun Ling shouted angrily as he stood up.

As he spoke, the disciples of the Law Enforcent Hall under his command began to move.

In this world, the hierarchy between superiors and subordinates was extrely strict. Lin Aoxue’s behavior had indeed been sowhat excessive.

However, Yun Ling had his own hidden motives. Lin Aoxue’s actions violated the sect rules, but the severity could be interpreted either lightly or heavily. If he could escalate the matter further, Lin Aoxue’s position as the next candidate for Sect Master might no longer be so secure.

If that happened, his own disciple might have the opportunity to rise.

Lin Aoxue had essentially given others a reason to make trouble for her. It could not be said that he was deliberately causing problems.

After all, his actions were consistent with his duties.

However, the mont Yun Ling spoke, Yun Yun imdiately rebuked him.

“Yun Ling, this matter is rely a misunderstanding. We only need to clarify the situation,” Yun Yun said coldly as she looked at him.

As soon as those words were spoken, the Law Enforcent disciples who were about to act were forced to stop. Since the Sect Master had spoken, they naturally had to wait.

“Sect Master, this is not in accordance with the rules. If Lin Aoxue is not punished, where will the sect’s authority remain? This is not rely a personal matter between you and her. You represent the Yunxia Sect. Your authority cannot be challenged by a disciple,” Yun Ling said sternly once again.

Although Yun Ling had his own ambitions, as the Great Elder responsible for enforcing the sect’s rules, he was obligated to uphold them.

However, just as Lin Aoxue and Yun Yun found themselves in an awkward stalemate, Ye Liuyun finally arrived at the Martial Arena.

The mont she arrived, she saw Lin Aoxue confronting the sect’s high-ranking mbers on the high platform. This was no trivial matter, and she could not afford to hesitate.

“Excuse , excuse .”

Using the Drifting Delicate Cloud Step, Ye Liuyun swiftly weaved through the crowd and reached the area below the platform.

“Aoxue! Aoxue! What are you doing?” Ye Liuyun shouted.

The mont the voice entered Lin Aoxue’s ears, she froze. She imdiately turned her head and looked down from the platform.

There, she saw a familiar figure standing below and looking up at her.

“Liuyun… Sister!”

Lin Aoxue imdiately flew down from the platform and excitedly embraced Ye Liuyun.

This scene stunned the surrounding people once again.

Seeing this, Yun Yun finally let out a sigh of relief. She thought to herself that fortunately the girl was safe. If sothing had truly happened to Ye Liuyun, Lin Aoxue might really have turned against her.

However, even though the matter was a misunderstanding, Yun Ling felt that it should not simply be dismissed. He was just about to speak again to express his stance.

“Sect Master, this—”

But before he could finish, Yun Yun’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind through voice transmission.

“Yun Ling, know when to stop. Do not escalate this matter any further. Are you intending to defy my will?” Yun Yun said.

Yun Ling was stunned for a mont, then reluctantly sat back down. After all, openly turning against Yun Yun would bring him no benefit.

The other three elders were also dissatisfied with Lin Aoxue’s behavior, but they did not speak.

After all, it was clearly a misunderstanding, and now the misunderstanding had been resolved.

If they sent Law Enforcent disciples to punish the future Sect Master because of a misunderstanding, the consequences would be far more serious.

Unlike Yun Ling, the three of them did not possess such ambitions.

“Where did you run off to? Why did everyone say you had not returned to your residence for three years? I thought sothing had happened to you,” Lin Aoxue asked angrily.

Ye Liuyun gave an awkward smile.

“Well… we can talk about that later. As for you, even if you could not find , you should have stayed calm. You are in trouble now, do you know that?” Ye Liuyun said with a frown.

“? I did not think about it that much. I thought sothing had happened to you. At worst, we would both be expelled from our masters and wander the world together,” Lin Aoxue said. She had already prepared for the worst outco.

Ye Liuyun wanted to complain about that statent, but when she saw Lin Aoxue’s expression, she did not know what to say.

After all, Lin Aoxue had clashed with Yun Yun because of her. She herself bore so responsibility as well.

“Forget about everything else. Hurry back and apologize to your master. Just say you misunderstood the situation,” Ye Liuyun said while glancing toward Yun Yun on the platform.

Lin Aoxue might be sowhat reckless, but she understood the seriousness of the situation. She nodded quickly, flew back onto the platform, and walked in front of Yun Yun before kneeling down.

“Master, I misunderstood you. I made a mistake. Please punish ,” Lin Aoxue said decisively.

When Yun Yun saw Lin Aoxue kneeling, the frustration in her heart finally eased slightly. Lin Aoxue’s earlier behavior had truly been infuriating.

“You girl… I confined you for three years, yet that impulsive temper of yours still has not changed. I have told you before—no matter what happens, you must think calmly. With such a hot temper, how will you shoulder the great responsibility of leading the sect in the future?” Yun Yun scolded angrily.

Lin Aoxue could only accept Yun Yun’s reprimand. Regardless, punishnt was inevitable.
