Chapter 15.2: How Did Senior Sister Know?
“Fighting among fellow disciples!” Luo Yiyi replied.
“Fighting among fellow disciples?”
Shen Yuluan’s eyes narrowed, and she continued to ask,
“Who did he injure?”
“Uh…”
Luo Yiyi hesitated, then said quietly,
“It wasn’t just an injury; he crippled the cultivation of eight outer disciples, one of whom was at the tenth level of Body Refinement!”
“Hmm?”
Shen Yuluan’s expression shifted as she seemed to recall something. She probed,
“Is that person named Lu Changhe?”
Earlier today on Zichen Peak, when Li Xun handed her the Purging Evil Pills, an outer disciple had rushed over, mentioning this incident.
It seemed that the person involved was named Lu Changhe, and Lu Changhe appeared to be on good terms with Junior Brother Li.
Otherwise, Junior Brother Li wouldn’t have hurried to the Law Enforcement Hall upon hearing that Lu Changhe had been taken there.
“How did Senior Sister know?” Luo Yiyi asked in surprise.
“I just overheard it somewhere,” Shen Yuluan waved her hand dismissively and continued asking,
“Has the matter been investigated? Why did Lu Changhe attack? And what is the character of Bai Shaowei and the others?”
‘Even Bai Shaowei is known…’ Luo Yiyi thought to herself, but she didn’t dare to delay. She quickly replied,
“Reporting to Senior Sister, Lu Changhe only mentioned personal grievances and refused to say anything else. However, as far as I know, Bai Shaowei and his group are notorious for their misdeeds, often robbing other outer disciples of their spirit stones.
“Moreover…” Luo Yiyi hesitated.
“Moreover what?”
Shen Yuluan looked up at Luo Yiyi, her voice firm.
“And, according to some outer disciples, Bai Shaowei has secretly crippled many people’s cultivation before, throwing them out of the sect to fend for themselves.” Luo Yiyi said quietly.
She had once been an outer disciple herself and had experienced similar situations.
As a result, she harbored no goodwill toward people like Bai Shaowei.
By sharing these details, she hoped that Shen Yuluan would show leniency toward Lu Changhe—at the very least, sparing his cultivation if he had to be expelled from the sect.
“Secretly crippling others’ cultivation and then abandoning them outside the sect?” Shen Yuluan’s eyes narrowed, a cold light flickering within.
“What does Senior Sister plan to do with Lu Changhe?” Luo Yiyi asked cautiously.
This was the purpose of her visit today.
Shen Yuluan held significant authority within the Law Enforcement Hall, capable of deciding the fate of outer disciples and even inner disciples who committed offenses.
“Punishment…”
Shen Yuluan tapped her finger on the table, the sound echoing through the room.
Her mind raced as she pondered the situation.
Today, Junior Brother Li had warned her about the poison, making her feel indebted to him.
Now, with Lu Changhe being a friend of Li Xun and his offense being somewhat justified, she had already made up her mind to save him.
But how to do so required careful consideration.
After thinking for a moment, Shen Yuluan looked up at Luo Yiyi and said sternly,
“Junior Sister Luo, go fetch a set of Law Enforcement Hall disciple’s robes and a token, and deliver them to Lu Changhe.”
“What?” Luo Yiyi was stunned, momentarily unable to comprehend what she had just heard.
“Never mind.”
Seeming to reconsider, Shen Yuluan glanced at the Purging Evil Pills on the table, stood up, and said,
“I’ll go in person.”
“Senior Sister, are you…” Luo Yiyi was left speechless as she watched Shen Yuluan’s departing figure, muttering to herself,
“Are you planning to have Lu Changhe… join the Law Enforcement Hall?”
