Everyone looked at Xue Ji in confusion. The girl looked young, but her aura was not to be underestimated. Her cold and sharp eyes seemed to tell the world that she could kill and destroy anyone who caused trouble with her.
This made the elder of the Luo Mountain Sword Sect feel wary. Moreover, the girl also mentioned the Eight Winds Harmony. Several questions crossed their minds. Who is that girl? How could she find out about the highly secretive Eight Winds Harmony technique?
On the other hand, Elder Wang's face was already pale with anger and fear. He didn't expect Xue Ji to expose him at a time when people were already gathered in the courtyard. Did that girl do it on purpose?
Elder Wang gritted his teeth. He asked Ye Xianling to call Elder Yan and the others to discipline Xue Ji, not to embarrass himself! The thought of it made him so angry that he vomited another mouthful of blood.
Another disciple came to help support Elder Wang's body. However, the old man immediately pushed the disciple so hard that the disciple fell to the ground. His rude actions made the people there frown.
However, Elder Wang didn't care about that. He didn't even switch the slightest attention from Xue Ji. His face grew colder and colder.
"Don't say nonsense! Otherwise, I'll—cough!" He coughed again before he could even finish his threatening words.
Xue Ji laughed loudly again like a mad devil. She had not bullied people in a long time and was eager to use this opportunity to do so. This sensation is incomparable.
"How can I say such nonsense?" she asked with cold eyes. "Thousand Winds Soaring Technique has the same character as the Eight Winds Harmony technique. It's the same technique, only the intensity of the power is weaker! Do you want me to expose you further?"
"You …." Elder Wang trembled at Xue Ji. He could feel the gazes of the people starting to become doubtful. Did they start to get caught up in Xue Ji's words? It worried him.
He immediately turned to look at the elders there and said, "Brothers and Sisters, you all know how I created the Thousand Wind Soaring martial technique. Even Sect Leader Yang never suspected me. How could this girl dare to accuse me of stealing such a top-secret technique?!"
Elder Yan took a deep breath. He looked at Xue Ji and then asked, "Young Lady, may I know your name? In fact, we've always kept the Eight Winds Harmony self-defense technique a secret. Before talking about that, has this Young Lady ever seen how the Eight Winds Harmony is used?"
"Right. Young Lady, before accusing someone, it would be best if you knew things for sure first," another elder replied.
Xue Ji laughed again. Compared to them, she was already familiar with the Eight Winds Harmony technique like flipping her own palm. What doesn't she know? Even though she had previously forgotten a little bit, ever since she was able to get out of Elder Wang's wind vortex, those memories have been dug up again.
"Who here is the one who studied the Eight Winds Harmony technique?" Xue Ji asked coldly.
The elders glanced at each other. Before anyone else could answer, Elder Wang had already voiced, "What are you asking about that for? You haven't even greeted and saluted us yet, but how come you're being so powerful here?!"
He looked at the elders and continued. "This girl has already trampled on the name of our ancestor. She even called our ancestors the Rancid Boy. What the hell is that?!"
"That's right! I saw for myself how that girl looked down on our sect ancestor and laughed at his statue!" Ye Xianling joined in. She had hated Xue Ji from the start. So she didn't hesitate to take advantage of this situation.
Those elders ended up getting angry at Xue Ji. Even Elder Yan and Elder Gu who previously had good preconceptions now shared their displeasure.
"What a brave girl! Who gave you such courage?!" they shouted.
Xue Ji sneered. It turns out that there are still things that have not changed after four hundred years, namely stupid people who are easily led by other people's opinions. From the past until now, people like that can still exist.
"Let me tell you guys, Old Mans, are there many sect disciples who study the Thousand Wind Soaring technique? If so, you guys are great! Killing disciples indirectly," she sneered, then turned to look at the statue of Feng Lian.
She complained honestly, "How is it? Feng Lian, I've tried, but they are so stupid. Then just leave them like this. I myself will not be harmed."
The people who heard Xue Ji's complaint were immediately dumbfounded. Now they were even more convinced that the girl was mentally damaged. Don't even have the slightest fear!
"Girl, it seems we can't tolerate you anymore. Ancestors are honorable existences. However, you treated our ancestors like you were treating a child. How can we just sit silently looking at something like this?!"
The elders began to move to surround Xue Ji and Bai Xiu. Their gazes had no friendliness at all. It was certain that by now everyone was hostile towards those two.
Elder Wang smirked at the changing situation there. As if pouring fuel on the stove, he shouted, "You accuse a commoner like me of stealing a secret martial technique belonging to the Luo Mountain Sword Sect. Are you underestimating the elders and the people guarding the technique? You think the person who keeps the secret technique is just a kid that I can easily trick?!"
"You Rancid Girl!" cursed one of the elders. They became angrier and angrier. Several elders had already started to show spiritual qi to attack. The others also didn't just stand still, they pulled out their weapons, ready to fight.
"Girl, if you give up now, we will consider being more gentle. However, if you and your lover try to fight back, we will not hesitate to injure you!"
Right after that, a woman's voice was heard from a distance. "Who is the extraordinary guest who came today? Of the many elders enjoying this crowd, why wasn't I invited?"
Everyone immediately turned their heads, including Xue Ji. She saw a woman dressed in plain white stepping into the already increasingly crowded courtyard. Her appearance is not old enough, just like a woman in her thirties. However, since she claimed to be an elder, perhaps her age was not as young as she seemed.
Her aura seemed majestic, anyone who saw it would surely feel an instinctive reverence. One corner of Xue Ji's eyebrows immediately raised. Who is she?
