Lin Yifan found the Immortal Ring and gave it to him, definitely performing a great service, so entering the Realm of Longevity, the Medicine Saint should not abandon Lin Yifan.
And Lin Yifan going to the Realm of Longevity will certainly not abandon his family, so marrying him is a chance to go to the Realm of Longevity.
This is the thought and purpose of the Third Elder of the Wudang Sect.
"Although your character is a bit flawed, I trust Guangming Brother's judgment, and you are by no means a person of extreme evil; so as long as you are willing to take responsibility for your actions, you are a good man!" Zhou Ziqing explained.
"Senior Zhou, have you considered your disciple's feelings when you keep forcing this?" Lin Yifan curiously asked.
From beginning to end, Mu Xueqing kept her head down, not daring to look at anyone; she was also frowning, very unhappy.
"How could I not ask her? She said, you must take full responsibility!" Zhou Ziqing replied.
Mu Xueqing wanted to explain something, but she believed Lin Yifan had a way to dissolve this marriage, so she held back.
Lin Yifan saw Mu Xueqing's expression completely, her face was full of two words—"torment".
In fact, Mu Xueqing didn't really want to marry him, he knew it back at the Fifth Palace; the reason she came here might be due to her Master's coercion; so how could he agree to this loveless marriage?
"Ha, really? Why do I not sense her desire, her anger?"
"You've ruined her reputation, and you still have the nerve to crack jokes here?"
Zhou Ziqing was furious, his disciple might not be a heavenly beauty, but she was still outstanding; what was Lin Yifan dissatisfied with?
"Senior Zhou, I'll say it again, I did not tarnish her purity!" Lin Yifan firmly replied again.
"You little bastard, even now you want to deny it, do you believe I'll skin you, pull your bones, make you wish you were dead?" Zhou Ziqing angrily threatened.
"Senior Zhou, what I say is true. If you indiscriminately attack an unarmed junior like me, I can only say that you are undeserving of being called a True Master."
"You..."
Zhou Ziqing was so furious he couldn't stop shaking.
Lin Yifan's words were too sharp, leaving him humiliated and enraged.
The next moment, he couldn't hold back anymore, unleashing a violent power.
"You little bastard, die!"
Just as he was about to direct this energy at Lin Yifan, a strong, chilling cough sounded abruptly.
"Cough cough!"
Although it was just a cough, no one dared to underestimate its power or defy its meaning,
The infuriated Zhou Ziqing immediately calmed down.
He nearly forgot that this was the Medicine Saint's territory. The Medicine Saint's Realm is the True Master Five Realm Peak, though he was also a True Master Fifth Realm expert, the difference from the Medicine Saint was too vast.
Thus, he had to lower his posture: "Guangming Brother, your disciple is too arrogant, openly confronting a senior, you should discipline him well."
"Haha, Brother Ziqing is right, Brother Ziqing is right." The Medicine Saint nodded in agreement, giving Zhou Ziqing some face.
Lin Yifan secretly breathed a sigh of relief; the feeling just now was too terrifying, suffocating. Luckily, the Medicine Saint was protecting him; otherwise, he might have been gone.
On the other side, Xiaofang felt the same; she was genuinely worried for Lin Yifan and was about to ask her Master to intervene.
Mu Xueqing felt nothing; if anything, she would have gleefully watched Lin Yifan get killed by her Master; because she hated Lin Yifan, not only for ruining her reputation but also for feeding her poison, making her life unbearable.
"Guangming Brother, how do you think we should handle this?"
Zhou Ziqing pressured the Medicine Saint; Lin Yifan was just a young kid, as long as the Medicine Saint spoke, there would be no worry about him not agreeing.
"It's pointless to ask me, the key is to ask these two young people if they are willing."
The Medicine Saint passed the decision off; Lin Yifan was someone he valued, bearing a heavy responsibility, completing his mission, and he did not want Lin Yifan to spend too much time on romance; moreover, he noticed Lin Yifan's displeasure, so he did not want a fallout between master and disciple.
"Oh! Guangming Brother, you're being too distant. As the saying goes, 'In matters of marriage, it's the parents' command and the matchmaker's words'. Their marriage should be decided by us!" Zhou Ziqing argued.
"That's an old saying, times have changed, and you wouldn't want your disciple to marry over and cry all day, right?"
The Medicine Saint passed the "decision" back again.
"My disciple really likes your disciple, she won't be unhappy." Zhou Ziqing continued to press.
"Is that so?" The Medicine Saint asked Mu Xueqing sitting beside Zhou Ziqing.
Mu Xueqing really wanted to say no but was afraid of angering her Master, so she kept hesitating.
Seeing Mu Xueqing hesitant, Zhou Ziqing got anxious, urging, "My dear disciple, speak up!"
"No, I don't like him at all!"
Mu Xueqing screamed hysterically, expressing her true feelings. This time, she wanted to take control.
She was truly fed up, no longer wanting to be manipulated by her Master. She didn't care about the Realm of Longevity or supreme power; she just wanted to live her present life well.
Lin Yifan felt much relieved, he thought she would always hold back, always make him oppose her Master.
Xiaofang saw the pitiful side in her eyes, sympathizing with Mu Xueqing, for a woman not having control over her own happiness is the greatest sorrow.
On the other side, Zhou Ziqing was furious.
They agreed before arriving that everything should listen to him and endure everything, yet unexpectedly, his disciple changed her mind temporarily, leaving him disgraced.
"You unfilial disciple, hasn't your Master treated you well? Do you have to disregard your Master's face at this critical moment?"
"Master! I truly don't want to marry him, please spare me."
Mu Xueqing pleaded bitterly; in the Sect, begging was useless; but in front of outsiders, it should work.
"Then who would want you? Your affair with that brat has spread throughout the cultivation world." Zhou Ziqing questioned.
"Then I will remain unmarried for life." Mu Xueqing responded.
"My foolish disciple, is it worth it? Don't you want this bastard to pay a price?" Zhou Ziqing advised and inquired.
"I want to, but I don't want to use my lifelong happiness to let this bastard not only go unpunished but also reap benefits." Mu Xueqing replied.
Zhou Ziqing's punishment differed vastly from her understanding of punishment, so she absolutely would not agree to this marriage.
"Alas!"
Zhou Ziqing sighed repeatedly, with even his own people against him, how could he apply pressure on the enemy?
The marriage couldn't proceed, but Lin Yifan's punishment must happen.
