757- So It’s My Fault?_ 1
Perfected Xuanchen sighed. When he was about to say something, Ye Qingtang suddenly spoke.
“I have no idea what mistake I made that need to be punished by Master, Peak Master?”
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master did not expect that Ye Qingtang would suddenly change her words after confessing the truth.
“What mistake did you make? Isn’t it a mistake that you injured your Senior Brother? Do you think that you can do anything you want when your Master is the Valley Master now?” He scoffed.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master seemed to be speaking to Ye Qingtang, but he was hinting at Perfected Xuanchen.
Ye Qingtang looked at how sarcastic was the Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master and was very confused.
“I can’t take the blame of hurting my Senior Brother. I was just practicing with Senior Brother Li. When did I purposely hurt him? I just entered the valley, and I’m not aware of all the rules here. Is competition among disciples forbidden here?”
“Of course it’s allowed here. However, were you really practicing? Li Jingwen is still in a coma now. How dare you say it’s a practice when you beat him heavily?” The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master heavily.
“Isn’t that how it’s supposed to be? It’s the same when Senior Brother Li came to the Admirable Sky Peak today with others and competed with my Senior and Junior Brothers. My Junior Brother Sheng almost lost his life under Senior Brother Li’s sword. He is still in a coma now,” Ye Qingtang said.
“I thought that Senior Brother Li is an old disciple here and the chief disciple of the Blue Cloud Peak. Of course, he should know the rules here. He did not have any concerns when he competed with our disciples, and I thought so as well.” Ye Qingtang continued.
“What did you say? When did Li Jingwen come to the Admirable Sky Peak?” The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master was stunned.
A trace of a cunning smile flashed across Ye Qingtang’s eyes. She knew that those from the Blue Cloud Peak did not have the nerve to tell the truth to their Peak Master.
“I was not around when Senior Brother Li was here. However, most of the Admirable Sky Peak disciples were here, and they can prove that. If you do not believe me, you can visit the doctor now. My Junior Brother Sheng is still lying there now.”
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master scanned through the Blue Cloud Peak disciples he brought when he saw that Ye Qingtang’s sight was so determined.
He immediately knew that they were hiding something when he saw their faces.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s face clouded, and he was speechless at the moment.
Li Jingwen injured the Admirable Sky Peak disciple first. If he blamed Ye Qingtang for the same thing, then Li Jingwen was the one who made the mistake first.
“Furthermore, when I went over to look for Senior Brother Li, he said in front of everyone that he was practicing with me… Senior Brother Yan and all the Blue Cloud Peak disciples who were present could prove that.” Ye Qingtang added.
The Blue Cloud Peak disciples’ faces were unpleasant.
Li Jingwen really did say that before.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s expression turned ugly.
“I did not expect that Senior Brother Li would be so weak. I thought that as the chief disciple of the Blue Cloud Peak, he must be very powerful, so I did not hold back. However… I didn’t know that he was so weak. If I knew that earlier, I would not use my full strength…” Ye Qingtang stared at the Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master with an innocent expression.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master almost fainted upon hearing her words.
His chief disciple was… weak?
Too weak for her to compete with?

758- So It’s My Fault?_2
The Admirable Sky Peak disciples at the side finally understood what was going on.
They tried to control their laughter upon hearing Ye Qingtang’s words.
Li Jingwen was too weak?
He was the strongest disciple of the Blue Cloud Peak.
Everyone felt that Ye Qingtang did the right thing when they recalled how Li Jingwen showed off at the Admirable Sky Peak earlier. However, they did not dare to reveal their thoughts on their faces.
Perfected Xuanchen’s sight landed on Ye Qingtang as he noticed how unpleasant the Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s expression was. His sight was complex.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master was speechless.
What could he say?
Was he going to say that he came here to stand up for his disciple as he was too weak and beaten during practice?
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s aggressiveness was all replaced by depression now.
He knew what Ye Qingtang was thinking about. However, the meaning changed in her words.
This…
She was totally unreasonable.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master frowned heavily.
The fight between Ye Qingtang and Li Jingwen had become a practice now. Even if Li Jingwen was heavily injured, as the Peak Master, he should not interfere with disciples’ practice.
Such practices were common in the Falling Sky Valley. No one would drag the elders and the wardens to ask for compensation if he lost.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master could not do anything to Ye Qingtang then.
Perfected Xuanchen stared at the Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s changing face and understood the situation. The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master should not have anything to say.
“Mind the limits even if it’s a practice in the future,” Perfected Xuanchen said slowly.
“I understand. I will be cautious of the limits. If my opponent is too weak, I will not use my full strength in order to maintain peace,” Ye Qingtang said.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master’s face clouded upon hearing Perfected Xuanchen and Ye Qingtang’s conversations.
Opponent is too weak?
Is she talking about Li Jingwen?!
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master took a deep breath and suppressed his unpleasantness. If he showed his anger now, he would be making a big fuss over a small issue.
“Valley Master, I still have things going on in the Blue Cloud Peak. I shall leave first,” The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master said with a dark face.
“Okay.” Perfected Xuanchen nodded slightly.
The Blue Cloud Peak Peak Master led his disciples, whose faces were unpleasant away.
Perfected Xuanchen did not say anything since the incident was ended. He glanced at Ye Qingtang with thoughts and left. After Perfected Xuanchen left, the Admirable Sky Peak disciples all surrounded Ye Qingtang and asked.
“Senior Brother Ye, you really beat Li Jingwen?”
Many Admirable Sky Peak disciples were triggered by Ye Qingtang offending the Blue Cloud Peak disciples and causing Li Jingwen to find troubles here. However, Ye Qingtang did not hide and beat him up instead.
Many disciples who had resentment all felt relieved now. Their aversion towards the new Valley Master’s disciple was slightly reduced.
Ye Qingtang did not know where to start as she was surrounded by Admirable Sky Peak disciples and questioned by them.
Yan Shu sighed slowly as Ye Qingtang was slightly accepted by the rest.

759 -So It’s My Fault?_ 3
“Don’t stand here. Go back to your cultivation and don’t be lazy.” Yan Shu saved Ye Qingtang from the predicament.
The disciples could only return to their positions for cultivation, but they were still bothered by the incident.
Ye Qingtang greeted Yan Shu and left.
Yan Shu’s sight was complex as he stared at Ye Qingtang’s fading back.
Gu Yihan and the rest all returned to the Admirable Sky Peak at night. They heard about the incident that happened today once they were back.
“The Blue Cloud Peak is way too extreme. How dare they find trouble here?” Qian Ze’s face clouded once he heard about that.
“At least the incident is contained. Though Junior Brother Ye was slightly impetuous, he managed to end it off.” Yan Shu sighed softly. He felt that the new disciple that Master took in was different from other disciples. His temper was totally different from others.
Even Qian Ze and Ye Ningxi who were not disciplined also did not cause any trouble under Perfected Xuanchen’s warning, but Ye Qingtang…
He caused such a big incident when he just entered the valley.
It was lucky that the level of the incident did not increase. If not, there would be much trouble waiting for them.
“Impetuous? I don’t think so. Though Junior Brother Ye is young, he settled things neatly.” Ye Ningxi took a glance at Yan Shu and said.
“Yan Shu, you are too cautious. Master asked us to behave, but not to the extent that we all become cowards. How could we let Li Jingwen go when he beat our disciples? I would definitely fight him with my life if I were present.”
“Fight with your life? You should think about this when you are stronger than him.” Qian Ze smiled and said. Once he finished his words, Ye Ningxi took a cold glimpse at him.
Yin Qingluo did not say anything all the time, but she took a heavy breath and said, “Junior Brother Ye’s ability is stronger than we think. And I don’t think that his behavior was wrong. Since Master became the Valley Master, disciples of other peaks constantly provoked us. We tried to tolerate and back off. However, what’s the result? They’re just getting more presumptuous.”
Yin Qingluo’s words let everyone immerse in thoughts.
They were still fine as they were Perfected Xuanchen’s disciples. However, the normal disciples of the Admirable Sky Peak suffered from injustice.
Even though they had to care for the big picture, no one would feel good with such injustice.
“Everything now is for the harmony of Falling Sky Valley. Master… must have his thoughts,” Yan Shu said.
Gu Yihan frowned slightly and did not say anything. Ji Yixuan, on the other hand, was interested in his new Junior Brother.
“Yan Shu, you were present when Junior Brother Ye fought with Li Jingwen. And since we won, who do you think is stronger? Our Senior Brother or him?” Qian Ze asked as he tried to stir up some trouble.
Yan Shu was stunned.
“Junior Brother Ye.” Gu Yihan glanced at Qian Ze.
Qian Ze shrugged his shoulders and said, “I just asked.”
They discussed for a while but came to no conclusion.
However, as a new disciple who just entered the valley, it was really beyond their expectations that Ye Qingtang could cause such troubles.
But it was just the beginning.
Ye Qingtang returned to the Falling Sky Valley to prevent the tragedy in her previous life from happening again.
