I was killed by my relatives, and I am reborn to be ruthless.

He Lian'er then stopped, straightened her body, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "To Elder Wan, I know that I made a mistake today. I dare not ask you to let me go. I only ask you, Elder Zhang, to listen to my explanation."

Elder Wan's face was gloomy. He looked at the wound on He Lian'er's forehead and there was some displeasure in his eyes.

Just when he was about to give in, an elder beside him said sternly, "He Lian'er, you are so good, you can openly make enemies for the sect just because you are the sect master's last disciple? Do you know what kind of sect Wan Jing Sect is?"

He Lian'er looked up at the person who was speaking, and it was the usually taciturn Fifth Elder.

"Fifth Elder, I don't have it."

"No? But what you did made Mingjian Sect become a cult on par with Wanjing Sect in the eyes of the world. How do you explain it?"

He Lian'er was speechless after hearing Dongbei's retort.

At this time, Zhao Yun stood up, bowed to the elders, and said, "Elders, Junior Sister He cannot be blamed for what happened today."

Only then did the elders notice Zhao Yun.

The Third Elder saw that his favorite disciple was also there. He had originally wanted to watch from the sidelines, but now he lost his composure.

He walked out and approached Zhao Yun, whispering, "What are you doing here? This matter has nothing to do with you. Go back and prepare for the training in a few days!"

Zhao Yun felt warm in her heart and said with a smile, "Master, I can't just watch Junior Sister He being misunderstood." After that, she looked at the other elders and said, "Junior Sister He did something wrong today, but she was also considering the overall situation."

When Zhao Yun said this, the elders present were all puzzled.

At the same time, a distant voice came from outside the door: "What a great person who considers the overall situation. This sect master also wants to know how she considers the overall situation."

As soon as the voice fell, a tall figure appeared at the main entrance of the Law Enforcement Hall.

When everyone present saw the newcomer, they lined up in two teams and saluted him with their fists clasped together: "Greetings, Sect Master!"

Hong Bo waved his hand: "No need to be polite."

He glanced coldly at He Lian'er lying on the ground, then walked to the main seat in the Law Enforcement Hall and sat down with an expressionless face.

"He Lian'er, tell me, why did you show your goodwill to the disciples of Wan Jing Sect in public today? Could it be that, as they said, you wanted to draw hatred from our Ming Jian Sect?"

When He Lian'er heard the master's tone, she knew he was very angry, and she didn't dare to say what she had prepared.

At this time, Zhao Yun concealed the longing in her eyes, lowered her head and said: "Reporting to the Sect Master, Junior Sister He not only did nothing wrong today, but also made achievements."

"What do you mean? Tell me."

Hong Bai looked at the top of Zhao Yun's head and said in a deep voice.

"Today, I also went to that street. I originally wanted to queue up to buy a pill made by Master Yuan Liang, but there were too many people in line at that time. I didn't get a chance to queue up, so I had to give up. At this time, the group of Wan Jing Sect disciples emerged from the back, and they were all very aggressive."

"So what?" an elder interrupted.

"If it were any other day, we would just avoid them. But at that time, so many people were unwilling to give up Master Yuan Liang's elixir. If we just let them make trouble, it would definitely lead to a fight and both sides would suffer."

"Junior Sister He stepped forward and offered her own elixir at this time, thinking about the safety of everyone. This shows her magnanimity and consideration for the overall situation."

After hearing this, the elders all remained silent.

Just when He Lian'er thought she would escape punishment this time, the Fifth Elder spoke again.

"Humph, if she still cared about the friendship between fellow disciples, she wouldn't have given her only bone-repairing pill to someone else instead of giving it to her own disciple!"

Sure enough, as soon as the fifth elder said this, the faces of the other elders who were about to give in immediately became stern again.

Even the Sect Master's expression darkened a bit, "Yes, isn't that right? The third rule of our Mingjian Sect is that no matter whether you are inside or outside the sect, you must consider the loyalty of your fellow disciples, and you must not be ungrateful or deceive or frame your fellow disciples."

He Lian'er pursed her lips, not knowing how to defend herself.

At that time, she was only concerned with pulling He Ronger into the water and didn't think about anything else.

At this time, Zhao Yun's voice once again sounded like the sound of nature in her ears: "Sect Master, several elders, as far as I know, Junior Sister He did have only one bone-repairing pill at the time, but she also knew that her sister, who hated evil as much as she hated evil, would not give her pill to the people of Wan Jing Sect, so she did not give the pill in her hand to Junior Brother Yao at the beginning."

“Just imagine, if Junior Sister He had given the elixir to Junior Brother Yao right away, she would have taken into account the righteousness of fellow disciples, but the elixir would have been given in vain for the sake of the overall situation, and it would have made the people of Wan Jing Sect hate us upright people.”

"The people of Wanjing Sect are narrow-minded and vindictive, and everyone knows that if they were angered, the lives of many monks with low cultivation levels who were present at the time would be in jeopardy."

Several elders present nodded in agreement.

The expression on Sect Leader Hong Bo's face also relaxed a little.

When He Lian'er heard this, she turned around and looked at Zhao Yun with gratitude, tears of gratitude flashing in her eyes: "Thank you, Senior Sister Zhao."

She didn't expect that the person who came to defend her at this time was Zhao Yun, with whom she was not very close.

He Lian'er felt somewhat relieved that no one attacked her in the teahouse, otherwise she would have had a hard time walking out of the Law Enforcement Hall today.

The Fifth Elder seemed to be disgusted with He Lian'er. He stood up again with a cold face, pointed at He Lian'er and said, "Even so, after hearing about you, he asked for a promise from the Wan Jing Sect. Is this also for the sake of the overall situation?"

His voice was cold, as if he was looking at his enemy.

In fact, it was no wonder that he was so angry. A few years ago, one of his favorite disciples was surrounded and hunted by Wan Jingzong's disciples when he was out for training.

Afterwards, he learned the news and went to collect his disciple's body. When he saw the tragic condition of his disciple's body, he made up his mind to fight to the death with the people of Wan Jing Sect.

Now, there are disciples in the sect who are publicly showing goodwill to the Wan Jing Sect’s people. How can he tolerate this?

Sect Master Hong Bo knew the Fifth Elder's concern. He sighed and looked at He Lian'er with a cold look in his eyes: "He Lian'er, why did you ask for a promise from the Wan Jing Sect? How do you want to use this promise?"

If He Lian'er said that she wanted to use the people of Wan Jing Sect to deal with the upright people, he, as the master, would be the first to disagree.

He Lian'er stuttered and couldn't speak.

Zhao Yun spoke again: "Master, Junior Sister Lian'er is so kind and generous. I think she is also thinking that if she sees people from the Wanjing Sect bullying the weak in the future, she can use this promise to save them."

As soon as she said this, He Lian'er nodded hurriedly: "Yes, Master, that's what I think. Even if I can only save one person, it will be worth it for me to give you the medicine today."
