"Junior Brother, Senior Sister has been in a bad mood lately, so her words were a bit harsh. Normally she’s very gentle. Please don’t mind what just happened."
Cheng Liang squinted his eyes, turning them into little crescents, and solemnly spoke while pretending to be blind, since he couldn’t see anything with his eyes closed anyway.
"Heh heh, Junior Brother is right. A mont ago, this lady... I was just angry with the threat from the Heaven Hall, so I said so aggressive things in a fit of rage. Junior Brothers and Sisters, please don’t take it to heart."
Reminded by Cheng Liang, Zi Ling also realized her attitude was problematic and imdiately explained to Lin Chen and the others.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen and the others looked at each other, saying nothing more.
It was Wang Shuo, who felt his cheeks burn after being reprimanded by Zi Ling, losing face in front of these new disciples.
"Miss Zi Ling, have you thought it through? Are you really going to accept him and go against our Heaven Hall?"
"He hasn’t just offended us, but also Shi An and the Thirteenth Prince."
"Now that the Thirteenth Prince has also joined our Heaven Hall, you should know the weight of our hall. Going against us, you should understand the consequences."
Wang Shuo looked at Zi Ling, bringing up the na of the Thirteenth Prince Yun Kaige, and said coldly.
Hearing this, Zi Ling frowned, looking sowhat impatient.
"Damn it, it seems it wasn’t that I didn’t make myself clear, but that your ears are deaf. You even dare to threaten with Yun Kaige’s na."
"Even if Yun Kaige were here, I wouldn’t care about him."
"Do you really think just ntioning his na would scare ?"
Zi Ling looked at Wang Shuo and rebuked him.
Upon hearing this, Wang Shuo suddenly didn’t know what to say, incredibly shocked. Who would have thought that even ntioning the Thirteenth Prince couldn’t intimidate Zi Ling.
"Do you know what you’re saying? How dare you speak of the Thirteenth Prince like that! Zi Ling, you’re finished. Just wait for the Thirteenth Prince’s revenge."
Wang Shuo again used the Thirteenth Prince’s na to threaten Zi Ling.
"Still daring to threaten ? You must be tired of living. Get out of my way!"
Thinking Wang Shuo was tired of living, Zi Ling couldn’t hold back anymore. She rolled up her sleeves and punched Wang Shuo.
Boom—
Wang Shuo’s body was instantly sent flying by Zi Ling’s punch, crashing into a distant building. The luxurious structure imdiately had a large hole smashed into it, with Wang Shuo deeply embedded inside.
"Senior Sister, Senior Sister, take it easy. Don’t damage the building..."
Cheng Liang hurriedly reminded Zi Ling as she made her move.
However, his reminder was one step too late. As soon as his words left his mouth, Zi Ling had already rushed out and punched Wang Shuo away.
Looking at the damaged building in front of her, Zi Ling’s mind froze for a mont, thinking she was in trouble.
How had she forgotten to hold back, and now she had damaged another building.
"It’s over, everything’s over..."
Cheng Liang looked at the building Wang Shuo had damaged in the distance and said, wanting to cry but without tears.
"Cheng Liang, do we... have any budget left this month?"
Zi Ling asked with a trace of hope.
"There was a bit left..."
"But now, I reckon it’ll just about cover the compensation for the damaged building. There’s ten days left this month; we can forget about cultivation resources, and even eating might beco a problem."
Cheng Liang said clearly, understanding well.
"Zi Ling, what are you doing again, and who are you fighting with now!?"
Just as Zi Ling had punched Wang Shuo into the wall, a middle-aged man’s figure flew over from the direction of a grand hall in the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, landing in front of Zi Ling like a streak of light.
"Destroying buildings, that’s a fine of one thousand spirit crystals. Go to the Law Enforcent Hall tomorrow to pay. Don’t think about delaying it; your overdue incidents have exceeded the limit. If you don’t pay on ti, tomorrow the Law Enforcent Team will escort you."
The middle-aged man looked at Zi Ling indifferently, visibly helpless, almost furious enough to have a stroke.
This girl Zi Ling seed to make mistakes several tis each month and each ti was serious, causing destruction one way or another, never staying out of trouble.
Hearing what the middle-aged man said to Zi Ling, and seeing his helpless expression, Lin Chen imdiately realized that this girl in purple often caused such destruction.
Though the fine wasn’t too much or too little, it very much suited Lin Chen’s style.
"Alright, kid, are you worshipping now?"
"Then quickly kneel down, bow and pay respects. After that, you’re a mber of our Yellow Hall. From now on in the Yunlong Heavenly Palace, I will cover for you, and no one will dare to ss with you."
Zi Ling said to Lin Chen earnestly.
Hearing this, Lin Chen frowned slightly. He had never heard of such a grand gesture needed to join a hall. Previously, he had seen other three halls recruiting disciples without this step.
"Do I really have to perform this ceremony to join the hall?"
Lin Chen asked, puzzled.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, you don’t have to. Just have your na and cultivation level recorded in the hall’s register, and you’re considered part of the hall."
Cheng Liang stepped out in response to Lin Chen’s query, presenting a register where there were now only two nas, one being Zi Ling and the other Cheng Liang.
Seeing that Cheng Liang had thwarted her little sche, Zi Ling let out a dissatisfied hum and subconsciously reached to tap Cheng Liang on the head. Within monts, a bump swelled up...
Cheng Liang appeared aggrieved, but seed used to it, rely rubbing his head, then presenting the register to Lin Chen.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, just sign your na here. Once you do, you’ll be a disciple of our Yellow Hall."
Cheng Liang looked at Lin Chen, speaking sincerely.
He was genuinely happy that, after many years, their Yellow Hall finally welcod a newcor.
This way, when Senior Sister advanced to the Inner Sect, he wouldn’t be left as the sole disciple of the Yellow Hall. He might even beco the senior brother of the Outer Sect...
Lin Chen looked at the register Cheng Liang handed over, then at the bump on Cheng Liang’s head, thinking to himself that this hot-tempered Senior Sister was indeed a fiend for violence. Seeing Cheng Liang like this, it seed he often got beaten, so if he joined the Yellow Hall, would he have to suffer the sa fate.
However, Lin Chen felt quite helpless. Currently, apart from the Yellow Hall, he had nowhere else to go.
With no other choice, he could only write his na in the register.
