Lou Jingyu is in charge of such a large Chiyang Sect. He always rewards and punishes people in moderation and naturally will not be soft-hearted, otherwise it would be difficult for him to control his subordinates.

"The hall master has a heavy responsibility to lead the affairs of the hall. If he fails to do his duty, it will endanger the safety and survival of the whole church. If it does not cause a serious mistake, he will be flogged 100 times according to the church rules and fined for half a year."

After a pause, he continued, "But Tan Qing's identity as an elder is indeed hard to doubt. Even I was deceived by him, so it is understandable that you two did that. There are many things for you two to do below, so I will only lash you thirty times."

After Lou Jingyu finished speaking, Lian Jue and Wen Hongling looked at each other.

excusable?

Will this word ever come out of my master's mouth one day?

I feel like the master seems to have a little more human touch.

Duan Chunhui seemed to know what they were thinking and raised his chin with great pride.

Humph, during the time you were away, the leader has made great achievements, so nothing is impossible.

"Thank you, Master!"

"Thank you, Master!"

The two thanked him in unison, each took on a task, and made an appointment with Jiang Yan to go to the punishment hall to receive punishment after discussing the matter.

"In addition, the branch that offered bribes was also very bold! A glimpse of the whole situation can give us a rough idea. It seems that there are many restless people in the sect. We can take this opportunity to check them up and down." Lou Jingyu said coldly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience was shocked.

Do you need to check everything from top to bottom?

This is to purge the church.

Even when the old leader was in power, there had never been such a drastic investigation. I didn't expect that the master was so courageous.

For a while, some people were happy and some were worried.

Lou Jingyu then gave instructions one by one. At the end, he narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the stewards present, and said, "I will pay close attention to this matter."

Anyone who had any ulterior motives was so scared that they broke out in a cold sweat.

The meeting ended here and people gradually dispersed, leaving only the five hall masters and pavilion masters to consult Lou Jingyu on some matters.

The shadow guards also left, some returned to the dark chamber, some went to the back mountain for training, and Shadow Three and Shadow Four remained in the dark to protect Lou Jingyu.

Ying Shiyi put away his sword and wanted to hide in the dark and wait for his master to finish talking to the stewards before returning to Canglan Palace together, but after a while he heard his master calling him.

"eleven."

Lou Jingyu just called out one sentence, and Ying Eleven fell from the sky.

A black figure landed in front of Lou Jingyu, the corners of his ink-black robe fluttering like a butterfly with black wings, fluttering twice and also landed in Lou Jingyu's heart.

"What do you want, Master?"

Ying Shiyi bowed respectfully with a serious look on his face, not as gentle and well-behaved as he had been when the two of them were alone in Canglan Palace. His every move showed that he was a qualified and outstanding shadow guard.

The next moment, this qualified shadow guard was embraced by his master around the waist.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ying Shiyi blushed and called him softly, "Master?"

Lou Jingyu smiled, with the corners of his mouth slightly curved. The invisible layer of frost covering his handsome face seemed to be blown away in an instant, revealing a tenderness that was rarely seen by others.

He pinched Ying Shiyi's fingertips and gently pressed him down on the armchair he had just sat on.

"Eleven, you've worked hard. Sit down for a while. I'll take you back soon."

There was tenderness and friendship in his words, and he felt so distressed even asking people to stand there for a little longer.

Ying Shiyi was a little at a loss, and felt uncomfortable even sitting in the spacious and comfortable chair.

Several hall masters and pavilion masters were standing, and the master was also standing. How could a shadow guard like him sit down?

It's too conspicuous.

"Master, I'd better not sit down."

As he was about to stand up, Lou Jingyu held down his shoulders.

"You sit behind me, no matter who dares to say anything, it's fine."

Lou Jingyu leaned over to persuade him, and then said: "I feel at ease when you are by my side."

This sentence actually worked. Ying Shiyi pursed her lips and stopped resisting.

Lian Jue's calm demeanor when he was apologizing just now was broken, and he gently bumped into Duan Chunhui's arm beside him.

He whispered, "Isn't Ying Shiyi the Shadow Guard of the Dark Chamber? What's this, Master?"

Duan Chun dodged his arm and turned sideways.

"You've never eaten pork, but you've never seen a pig run. How can even the hall master not see such an obvious fact?"

Lian Jue raised his eyebrows, "I can understand what others say, but when it comes to my master, it's... well... hard to explain."

Lou Jingyu is well-known in the martial arts world for his coldness and ruthlessness, and he is also well-known for not being interested in women. Unexpectedly, the one who has won his favor is a man.

But even so, with the leader's reputation, he can get any man he wants.

But I have never seen anyone else on the couch.

How did this shadow guard gain the favor of his master?

And judging from the situation, it's not the servant trying to please the master, but the master taking care of the subordinate...

It's the other way around.

Even Lian Jue, whose brain was usually smarter than Zhuge Liang's, was a little confused.

He could only ask Duan Chunhui in a low voice: "Is this Ying Shiyi's identity... Is he a shadow guard or the master's favorite servant now?"

Although he is a shadow guard, his master is so kind to him.

The master is not so considerate of his subordinates.

Moreover, although the clothes on Ying Shiyi are low-key, they are obviously the master's clothes at first glance, even the waist belt decorated with white jade accessories belongs to the master.

He had a good memory and remembered that Lou Jingyu had worn this outfit before.

To be treated like this, the only person who could be anything but a pampered servant by your side.

But if he is a favorite servant, Ying Shiyi was guarding the meeting room with the same vigilance as the other shadow guards, and there was no difference between him and the other shadow guards.

Duan Chunhui glanced at him with an expression that said this child is incorrigible.

"Don't say this in front of the leader. The word 'pamper' doesn't sound good. If he finds out, just wait and see. He really pampers Ying Eleven. You'll know in the future."

Lian Jue could only nod.

Wen Hongling, who was standing aside, watched the atmosphere between Lou Jingyu and Ying Shiyi. Her unique female sixth sense made her sense that something was unusual, and she understood it without having to listen to Duan Chunhui's explanation.

I felt full even though I didn't eat.

No wonder I felt that the master was a little more humane, so this is how it came about.

Wen Hongling breathed a sigh of relief. Thanks to this shadow guard, she was able to avoid a lot of punishment.

The internal skills that Lou Jingyu practiced were unparalleled in the world, and he noticed their conversations and small movements, which they thought were quiet, but he was talking to Eleven just now and had no time to pay attention to them for the time being.

After he finished speaking a few words to Eleven, he turned around and coughed.

"Lian Jue, if you can't speak, just say less." There was no emotion in his tone.

Lian Jue was so frightened that he immediately shut up. After a little thought, he realized that it was because of his inappropriate choice of words that upset his master.

This time he was smart and just bowed to Ying Shiyi as an apology.

Lou Jingyu was very satisfied with his knowledge of the current situation. He nodded and did not pursue the matter any further. He continued to discuss matters with them. His tall figure just happened to block Ying Shiyi behind him.

After three quarters of an hour, they finished discussing the matters that required Lou Jingyu's decision, and then everyone went their separate ways.
