Chapter 271 – Blocked by the Mysterious Medical Sect


    When Lin Jichen returned to the previous spot, Fang Qingzhu was nowhere to be seen.


    It was obvious that Yun Lanyi had taken her away.


    So, she really didn''t want him to see Fang Qingzhu again?


    Lin Jichen was utterly confused. Why did Sect Leader Yun react so strongly upon hearing that his master was Leng Feiyan?


    <em>What kind of unpleasant history did these two have?</em>


    But he had never heard of any enmity between the Tianyan Sword Sect and the Mysterious Medical Sect.


    Previously, Yun Lanyi had no reaction when she learned he was a disciple of the Sword Sect. On the contrary, she was quite amicable.


    It was only after learning he was Leng Feiyan''s disciple that her attitude turned hostile.


    Lin Jichen guessed it might be a personal grudge between the two.


    Whatever, he had no right to know the affairs of the big shots, and even if he knew, he had no say in them.


    Being saved by Yun Lanyi without losing his innate attributes was already a blessing.


    Lin Jichen didn''t dare stay in this eerie ce any longer, fearing that a bunch of evil demons might show up again. He quickly made his escape.


    Lin Jichen flew all the way back to the Mysterious Medical Sect, only to find that the female disciples guarding the mountain gate wouldn''t let him in, their attitudespletely different from before.


    "The Elder has ordered that you are not wee here. Please leave!"


    Lin Jichen was both amused and exasperated. Thest time he came, these same female disciples were so enthusiastic and shy around him.


    Now, look at them. Too real.


    Yun Lanyi was ruthless, truly kicking him out of the Mysterious Medical Sect. He probably wouldn''t be able to enter the sect again in the future.


    He had been cklisted by the Mysterious Medical Sect...


    Just as Lin Jichen was hesitating whether to leave, Gu Qiuxue ran out from the sect.


    "Little Chen,e with me."


    Gu Qiuxue sneakily pulled Lin Jichen to a corner.


    "Little Chen, I heard from Senior Sister Fang that you made our Sect Leader unhappy? She asked if you offended Sect Leader Yun? She wants to plead for you."


    Fang Qingzhu was actually quite confused. After Yun Lanyi found her, she didn''t even wait for her to ask whether Lin Jichen was dead or alive before taking her back to the sect.


    Along the way, she asked many times, and Yun Lanyi finally said that Lin Jichen was fine but forbade her from seeing him again.


    This left Fang Qingzhu dumbfounded, but with the Sect Leader''s order, she didn''t dare disobey and had to ask Gu Qiuxue toe out and find out the reason.


    Lin Jichen smiled bitterly and said, "Sis, I didn''t offend her. It seems she has some issues with my master. As soon as I mentioned my master was the Sect Leader of the Sword Sect, her attitude changed. They probably have some past grudge, and I''m just caught in the crossfire. It''s so unfair."


    Gu Qiuxue giggled and said, "How could such a thing happen? I''ll go and plead with my master."


    "No need, Sis. The grudges between these big shots are not something we yers can change. Wait... your master? Sis, you mean, you seeded?"


    Lin Jichen btedly caught on to this piece of information.


    Gu Qiuxue smiled and nodded, "Yes, Sect Leader Yun epted me as her disciple. She''s very kind to me. I don''t understand why she''s so harsh on you."


    "Sigh, I''m innocent too. Before I mentioned my master, she had a good impression of me. Maybe she could have even liked me," Lin Jichen joked.


    Gu Qiuxue rolled her eyes at him, tapped his forehead with her jade-like hand, and chided, "My silly one, this is a game, they''re all NPCs, and you still want to flirt?"


    Lin Jichen chuckled, cleared his throat, and said, "I was just kidding. Besides, with NPCs, building a good rtionship might lead to quests."


    "But now you can''t even enter the Mysterious Medical Sect. I should go talk to my master. If she doesn''t agree, I''ll leave the sect and find another ce. It''s just a game," Gu Qiuxue said nonchntly.


    In her eyes, Lin Jichen was the most important. She didn''t care who treated him badly, even if it was her newly epted master.


    Hearing that she was willing to leave the sect, Lin Jichen quickly reassured her, "Sis, it''s fine. I''ll ask my master about it when shees out of seclusion. Don''t leave the sect. Bing the Sect Leader''s disciple is a dreame true for countless yers. Cherish this opportunity. I''m counting on you to get stronger and help me."


    If Gu Qiuxue left the sect, Lin Jichen would really cry.


    In the four provinces, the Mysterious Medical Sect was the strongest medical sect. If she left, where would he find such a good medical sect?


    The other three provinces'' medical sects were quite average, just like how the Tianyan Sword Sect was the best among the Sword Sects.


    "Alright then," Gu Qiuxue finally gave up the idea.


    "That''s the spirit, Sis. Just stay in the Mysterious Medical Sect and build a good rtionship with Yun Lanyi. Sect Leaders have all sorts of hidden treasures. The better your rtionship, the more generous she''ll be. I just won''te to the Mysterious Medical Sect for now. If you miss me, you cane to our sect to find me," Lin Jichen said.


    Gu Qiuxue blushed, her beautiful eyes filled with gentle affection as she gave Lin Jichen a harmless re.


    "By the way, Senior Sister Fang asked me to give you this."


    Gu Qiuxue remembered and handed Lin Jichen an elixir.


    Lin Jichen took it and saw that it was the supreme-grade Body Refining Elixir he needed.


    <blockquote>


    [Supreme-grade Body Refining Elixir]: +80 free attribute points, can help a cultivator at the initial bottleneck of the Crystal Realm break through to the mid-stage of Crystal Formation.


    Requirement: Only cultivators at the initial bottleneck of the Crystal Realm can consume it.


    </blockquote>


    "Senior Sister Fang also said, thank you for saving her again. The Sect Leader has ordered her to break through to thete Golden Elixir stage before she can go out for experience again. She will focus on breaking through this month and looks forward to sparring with you at next month''s Ascension Tournament," Gu Qiuxue ryed.


    Lin Jichen smiled brightly and said, "I got it, Sis."@@novelbin@@


    "Oh no, it''s almost two o''clock. I need to cook. I''ll head back to the sect now. Remember toe out for dinnerter."


    Gu Qiuxue said and hurriedly left, returning to the sect to log off.


    Lin Jichen also used the teleportation array to return to his sect.


    Leng Feiyan was still in seclusion. He wanted to ask her about Yun Lanyi, but it seemed he could only wait for his master toe out.


    He went to Spirit Beast Mountain again and found Elder Tianyuan blocking his way once more.


    "Kid, what are you doing here again?" Elder Tianyuan eyed him like a thief.


    "Ahem... I came to check on Senior Sister and see how her injuries are," Lin Jichen said.


    "Her injuries have long healed, but she''s in seclusion now. You can''t see her. Hurry up and leave," Elder Tianyuan waved him off impatiently.


    However, it was clear thatpared to before, Elder Tianyuan''s attitude towards him had improved.


    In the past, he wouldn''t have wasted so many words and would have directly swept Lin Jichen off the mountain with a flick of his sleeve.


    "Why is Senior Sister Nangong in seclusion?" Lin Jichen asked, puzzled.


    "Isn''t it obvious? The Ascension Tournament is next month. Her father wants her to break through to the mid-Golden Elixir stage, so she needs to focus on her seclusion," Elder Tianyuan exined.


    Due to the uing Ascension Tournament, almost all sect disciples were preparing for it.


    Nangong Yue was also forced into seclusion by her father, who said she couldn''te out until she broke through to the mid-Golden Elixir stage.


    Of course, Lin Jichen seriously suspected that Nangong Yue''s father didn''t want him to see his daughter.
