Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

Chapter 1944

"well played!"

"Brother Li Lan, that slap you delivered was so satisfying."

Soon, everyone present understood.

The fact that Luo Ye, with such poor skills, was selected as a formal disciple is most likely due to connections within the sect.

Judging from their performance during the assessment, Li Lan and the other person are definitely much stronger than Luo Ye.

"what happened?!"

Just then, a cold voice came from outside the alchemy room.

Upon hearing the sound, Luo Ye was overjoyed and hurriedly scrambled to the door of the alchemy room.

"My Lord, you've finally arrived!"

The person who came was none other than Feng Buyu, the steward in charge of all matters in the alchemy workshop.

Feng Buyu glanced at the devastation in the alchemy room, then turned his cold gaze to Li Lan and Da Niu.

"You two are just new, menial disciples, how dare you ruin the alchemy room like this?!"

When Feng Buyu arrived, he didn't even ask what had happened; he immediately pinned all the blame on Li Lan and the other person.

Therefore, it is clear that Feng Buyu was aware of Luo Ye's relationship.

At this point, Luo Ye added fuel to the fire again, saying:

"Sir, you must do justice for your disciple!"

"I was just refining pills when the furnace fire suddenly went berserk and burst out of control."

"I originally intended to move this furnace fire elsewhere to avoid harming my fellow disciples."

"But who would have thought that Li Lan would turn the fire around and use the furnace fire to injure his disciple, and also destroy the alchemy room into what it is now."

The other disciples in the alchemy room were also present, and they naturally knew the true story.

However, they also knew that Luo Ye had connections with the elders within the sect.

In contrast, Li Lan and the other two had no relation whatsoever, and were merely menial disciples of the sect.

So they all chose to remain silent.

"Humph!"

Feng Buyu snorted coldly, and his powerful aura instantly erupted, pressing down on Li Lan and the other person.

In that instant, Da Niu was under immense pressure and couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.

But just then, he suddenly felt a warm breeze.

The moment this aura appeared, it lessened the oppressive force of the powerful aura emanating from Da Niu.

He knew that Li Lan had made the move.

Despite Li Lan's secret telepathic communication, Da Niu still displayed an expression of extreme unbearable pain.

"If you're determined to find fault, you'll always find a pretext. What exactly are you trying to do?!"

"What do I want to do?"

Feng Buyu pointed to the broken rubble in the alchemy room and said coldly:

"You are just two menial disciples. Even if you are dissatisfied with yesterday's assignments, you shouldn't retaliate against your fellow disciples like this, right?"

"The disciples of the Star Devouring Sect have always been very united, and we will never tolerate the existence of such anomalies as you!"

"In that case, I think you'd better not stay in my Star Devouring Sect!"

Just then, Luo Ye suddenly thought of something.

If we let these two guys get away like this, wouldn't that be letting them off easy?

"Sir, please don't send them away!"

"Although I know they are jealous of my status, it's not enough to expel them from the sect."

"Oh, so what do you want to do with them?"

Li Lan, who hadn't made a move, narrowed his eyes slightly.

A weasel offering New Year's greetings to a chicken—everyone knows that Luo Ye is unlikely to spout anything good.

However, since he could stay, he was happy to do so.

“Sir, I heard that the two disciples in charge of training Ghostfire Flowers in the sect have suddenly become vacant. Why don’t we let them go there to work?”

"That way, they won't attack me out of jealousy anymore, don't you think?"

Upon hearing the words "Ghost Fire Flower," all the disciples present couldn't help but shudder.

Every disciple of the Star Devouring Sect knows that raising Ghostfire Flowers is no easy task.

In the past, the disciples who were responsible for raising the Ghost Flower would become mentally impaired and lose all their cultivation within a year.

The reason this position has recently become vacant is because the two disciples responsible for nurturing the Ghostfire Flower had their cultivation and souls devoured, leaving them as empty shells.

Sending Li Lan and the other person to raise the Ghost Flower is no different from sending them to their deaths.

Feng Buyu narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing the suggestion, but he quickly smiled.

"Li Lan, this is a kind gesture from your senior brother Luo Ye, so please don't let it go to waste."

“Raising ghost sparks is dangerous, but it’s still much better than being left to wander and becoming a rogue cultivator.”

Li Lan and his companion were well aware of the dangers posed by the Ghost Fire Flower.

However, given Luo Ye's framing, it seems that this is the only way to stay in the Star Devouring Sect.

At this moment, Da Niu couldn't hold back any longer and was about to angrily curse their shamelessness.

At this moment, Li Lan stopped him.

"Alright, let's go cultivate this will-o'-the-wisp."

He was well aware that cultivating will-o'-the-wisps was an extremely dangerous task.

Even so, there is still an elder in charge there.

Since even the elders, with their strength, are unharmed, then there is even less danger for him.

In addition, he doesn't have to see that lackey kneeling on the ground every day, so this job is more comfortable for him.

"Brother Li Lan, don't you know that cultivating Ghost Fire Flowers is just sending us to our deaths?"

Da Niu was very puzzled as to why Li Lan would agree to it even knowing the consequences.

Li Lan smiled gently and said in front of everyone:

"Because this is our only chance to stay in the Star Devouring Sect, we must cherish it."

Seeing the look Li Lan gave him, Da Niu instantly understood.

So it turns out the Li brothers had planned this all along.

"very good."

Feng Buyu smiled faintly and said:

"Since none of you have any objections, then starting tomorrow, go to the mountain where the Seventh Elder resides to report for duty."

"Once you get there, someone will teach you how to cultivate will-o'-the-wisps."

Upon seeing that Li Lan and the other person had actually agreed, a mocking expression appeared in Luo Ye's eyes.

That beating wasn't for nothing.

These two idiots actually dared to accept this task. After you lose all your cultivation, won't you become my possessions, Luo Ye's everything?
