The Wonderful Way

Chapter 15 Fraudulent
One year after joining the sect, Chu Miao finally advanced to the seventh level of qi training at the age of 11. The speed of her cultivation made her colleagues in the sect speechless.

Chu Miao didn't think there was anything to be surprised about. She already had cultivation experience, and unlike real children, she didn't need to be able to read and understand exercises first.

In addition, Chu Miao is still a mutated Lei Linggen, so it is normal to reach the seventh level of Qi training at the age of 11.

Chu Miao also often went to the outer door to look for Mu Xiaodie during this year, and the relationship between the two remained the same, and there was no change due to Chu Miao's advancement.

Mu Xiaodie still stayed on the fifth floor of Qi training, but she was very happy to see Chu Miao advance. The two agreed to go to Zongwaifang City together and find a restaurant to have a big meal to celebrate.

The two met on the trail outside the Zongmen early in the morning, and chatted about recent trivia along the way while heading towards Zongmenfang City.

Chu Miao didn't notice that when she left the sect, there were two sneaky people following her all the time. It was Yu Shan and Wei Yiran who followed Liu Silu's order to follow Chu Miao.

The Liu family where Liu Silu lives is a subsidiary family near the Zongmen, and Liu Quan, the middle-stage elder of the Yuanying in the Zongmen, is her father.

The Liu family is not very big, and the family has only been established for five thousand years. There are only three Nascent Soul cultivators in the family, and they mainly rely on Liu Quan, who is the elder of the Tianji Sect.

Liu Quan is now around [-] years old, and the lifespan of the monk Yuanying is about [-] years old at most.

There is no hope of advancing to become a god, so she loves Liu Silu, the only daughter with dual spiritual roots of gold and water, and gives her great hope.

Liu Silu was highly valued by the head of the Liu family, and she was afraid of offending her. In the sect, she also had an elder father, so she behaved very domineeringly.

Among the disciples of the Zongmen, there are also many disciples from different families, big and small, but most of them focus on cultivation, unlike Yu Shan and Wei Yiran who hang around Liu Silu all day long.

Under the praise of Yu Shan and Wei Yiran, Liu Silu has always regarded herself as the No. 1 female disciple of the sect.

When Liu Silu was very young, she had been attracted to Bai You, who was outstanding both in terms of aptitude and appearance, and decided that Bai You would be her future Taoist companion.

Elder Liu and the Liu family were also happy to see it come to fruition, Bai You was not from a family of cultivators, but a disciple he received when he was accepting disciples.

But this generation of Tianjizi attaches great importance to Bai You, so Elder Liu and the Liu family both contribute to Liu Silu's pursuit of Bai You, and Liu Silu even thinks that Bai You is in his pocket.

Many female disciples in the Zongmen have secret feelings for Bai Youfang, but they all know Liu Silu's overbearing and unreasonable, and most of the monks still focus on cultivation, so no one has ever really approached Bai You.

Ever since Liu Silu saw Bai You personally bring Chu Miao to the inner sect to report, she felt as if she had swallowed a needle.

At first, he thought that Chu Miao was just a casual cultivator with no background, and he couldn't compete with him at all, so he just wanted to teach Chu Miao a lesson and gave up.

Who knew that Chu Miao turned out to be Lei Linggen's aptitude, and her cultivation speed was many times faster than her own.

Coupled with the fact that Chu Miao turned a blind eye to her many times, Liu Silu gradually hated Chu Miao, and wanted to find a chance to ruin her reputation all day long.

That day, it happened that Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie were going to Fangshi outside the sect gate, Liu Silu hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Yu Shan and Wei Yiran, and after a few instructions, the two of them followed.

……

After Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie had a sumptuous spiritual meal in the restaurant, they were going to wander around the market before returning to the sect.

Mu Xiaodie wanted to learn talismans, so the two went to Wanbao Pavilion, the largest shop in the Zongmen, to buy some first-grade talisman paper and talisman pen cinnabar.

The items in Wanbao Pavilion are the best in Tianji Zongfang City, and the price will naturally not be cheap.

Mu Xiaodie only has ten spirit stones and a bottle of qi-nourishing pills per month. Seeing that it would take at least two hundred spirit stones to buy all the talisman-making items, she felt a little hesitant.

When Chu Miao was about to help buy it, she was stopped by Mu Xiaodie.

"You don't have to give it to me. I don't need to buy it for now. Anyway, the talisman can only be made in the later stage of Qi refining. Now I can use ordinary paper and pen to practice."

Chu Miao thought it was the same, in the middle stage of Qi training, no decent and useful talisman could be made anyway, and it would be better to give her a good talisman pen in the late stage of Qi training.

When the two were tangling at the side, they didn't see the steward of the Wanbao Pavilion sitting outside secretly pursed his lips, obviously looking down on these two poor disciples.

Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie wandered around the first floor of Wanbao Pavilion for a long time, and found that either they couldn't afford it, or they didn't need it at all, so they planned to go out and look at the stalls in the west of Fangshi.

As soon as Chu Miao turned around, she was knocked back a few steps by a monk on the [-]th floor of Qi training behind her.

The male cultivator looked like an octogenarian on the outside, he was clearly advanced and had no hope of life, and his cultivation base was much higher than Chu Miao, but he kept apologizing to the two of them.

Both Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie said they were fine, and the old man turned around and left Wanbao Pavilion.

When Chu Miao and two were about to go out, they were stopped by the steward who was sitting outside, "Stop, you want to leave before you give the spirit stone?"

Chu Miao looked down, and unexpectedly there was an unfamiliar storage bag on her waist, with the word "Wanbao" embroidered on it. Chu Miao quickly explained:

"The steward misunderstood, I didn't take this storage bag, so I'll give it back to you." After speaking, he took off the storage bag and handed it to the steward, before leaving to find the old man who bumped her.

"If you can't afford it, you can't afford it, and you even stole it! It's shameless, if I didn't find out, I don't know how many things you would have stolen!"

The steward shouted loudly while opening the storage bag, and found that there were a lot of valuables on the first floor inside, and he even yelled loudly:

"Look, here are all the precious things on the first floor of our Wanbao Pavilion, and they are all used by female nuns, and you are still arguing that it's not you? Who has nothing to do to pack a storage bag and wrong you?"

Almost all the monks in the store were disciples of the Tianji Sect, and when they heard the steward's yelling, they all gathered together to watch the excitement, and even outside the store, there were a bunch of people pointing and pointing at Chu Miao and Mu Xiaodie.

Chu Miao kept thinking in her mind that the old man who bumped into her at the late stage of Qi training just now must be the one who put the storage bag on her body.

But what I can't figure out is that I have no grievances or enmity with him, why would he deliberately frame himself?

Chu Miao finally understood when she saw Yu Shan and Wei Yiran with mocking smiles outside Wanbao Pavilion.

Chu Miao looked at the steward who was still yelling in Wanbao Pavilion, and knew that no matter how she explained today, there would be no result.

Thinking that he had never provoked these people, but was still regarded as weak and easy to bully, a burst of anger burned in his heart.

At this time, I can only make a secret note, and when I find a suitable opportunity in the future, I must make these people who plot against me pay the price!

Mu Xiaodie at the side didn't know anything about the inner sect, and was still explaining loudly to the steward: "The old man really pushed it in just now, if you don't believe me, let's go out and chase it!"

While Mu Xiaodie was arguing with the steward, she heard a gentle voice from outside, "There are so many spirit stones in there, I bought them."

Everyone heard the sound and looked back, and found that it turned out to be Bai You who has always been the most valued by the sect.

Seeing this, the steward glanced at Yu Shan erratically, seeing that Yu Shan's eyes had long been fixed on Bai You, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and reply: "A total of 20 yuan of middle-grade spirit stones."

As soon as the words were finished, the 20 yuan mid-grade spirit stones fell on the steward's table with a bang. The steward watched dumbly and didn't dare to put it away, so he hurriedly put the table full of talismans into a storage bag and handed it to Bai You.

Without even looking at it, Bai You handed the storage bag to Chu Miao, and said, "Come with me to Tianji Peak, the elder is looking for you."

After speaking, no matter how surprised everyone was, the coercion dissipated and the onlookers were pushed away, and Chu Miao left the market with the stunned Chu Miao.

Seeing that the matter ended in such a dramatic way, Mu Xiaodie had no choice but to go back to the sect, leaving behind Yu Shan and Wei Yiran, who were filled with jealousy and hatred, and gave the steward of Wanbao Pavilion a hard look, and then walked away.
