This realization made him feel an intense fear.

From then on, every piece of news about his junior sister was extremely irritating to him.

Today, Junior Sister Lin Shao received praise from the Chief Peak Master;

Tomorrow Junior Sister Lin Shao will think of a new use for the herbs.

In the next two years, he struggled with the idea of pursuing Junior Sister Lin Shao every day. He worked hard without sleep or food, but Junior Sister Lin Shao seemed to have no special ideas and could easily go further and further away. Fortunately, there was a big age difference between the two of them, so there was no room for comparison between them in the short term.

Then two years later at the Xinglin Conference, he won the championship for the first time.

At that time his reputation suddenly reached its peak.

He was 30 years old at the time and was the youngest person to win the championship since the founding of Xinglin Society.

Master Uncle was also very happy. His hard work over the years had finally paid off. This was the first time in a long time that he was so excited that his head was dizzy.

However, it wasn't long before the excitement turned into bitterness.

The minimum age to register for the Xinglin Society is fifteen years old. Lin Shao's birthday was a few days off that year, so he missed the registration.

Lin Shao was fifteen years younger than her, and when she participated in the next session, she would be only twenty years old.

This is a terrible thing.

She was too young and much better than me.

At first, Master Bo tried to surpass Lin Shao as quickly as possible in the only five years he had, but the more he tried, the more powerless he felt.

Lin Shao's medical skills are becoming more and more outstanding;

Lin Shao became more and more famous among the medical immortals;

Lin Shao gradually became the center of the Qingyi Sect's disciples, and became the most admired figure by the new disciples who had joined the sect in recent years.

Lin Shao was often surrounded by many young disciples, but she herself was completely unaware of the respect she received.

Gradually, as Lin Shao quickly moved away from the scope of new disciples, grew up, and became a familiar senior sister to the younger disciples, the competitive relationship between him and Lin Shao became more and more intense. At the same time, the voices in Xinglin Peak discussing that Lin Shao's medical skills were comparable to or even better than his became louder and louder.

So when there were still two years left before the next Xinglin Conference, he took advantage of his position at Xinglin Peak and replaced the spiritual herbs and grass seeds at Lin Shao Peak for the first time, hoping to slow down Lin Shao's cultivation.

After finding that the effect was not as expected, there was a second and third time...

There were moments of clarity in the middle, when I wondered if I had done something wrong, but from the first step toward the abyss to where I am now, there is no chance to turn back.

The strange thing is that even though he achieved his goal, he never felt happy after all these years. Instead, he felt tormented every day.

He has been waiting for the day of judgment to come.

Later, Junior Sister Lin Shao died, but Junior Brother Xun Wang came, and then Fairy Xueli came...

He didn't know when he grew from the young genius who shocked Xinglin Peak into a middle-aged man, but the new geniuses were younger than him. Their eyes were so clear and their actions were so frank, as if they were mocking their own old age.

The master bowed deeply to the masters in the hall, lowered his eyes and said, "Disciple... I feel ashamed of the many years of teaching by the masters, and I will accept the punishment."

Xue Li looked at the middle-aged man crawling at her feet with a strange mood. The master uncle should be a respected person, and such a gap made her feel a little uncomfortable. He didn't seem as tall as she usually thought. But it was this man who made her aunt bear fifteen years of injustice and have nowhere to go.

The leaders of Xinglin Peak looked at Xueli and asked, "How would you like to deal with him, Fairy?"

Xue Li thought for a moment and said, "I am not a mortal. The key is not how I want to deal with him, but how Fairy Lin Shao wanted to deal with him, and how Junior Master wanted to deal with him."

Master Uncle heard something strange in Xueli's words. He paused, then knelt on the ground and asked, "Do you know Junior Sister Lin Shao? What is your relationship with Junior Sister Lin Shao?"

This was a question that everyone was concerned about. Surprisingly, it was the Grand Master who asked the question in the end. Everyone looked at Xue Li for a moment.

Now my aunt’s injustice has been redressed, and it will be fine even if she returns to Xinglin Peak.

After thinking about it, Xue Li straightened her chest and said, "She is my relative and also my mentor!"

Xue Li spoke in a sonorous voice, and as soon as she finished speaking, the disciples of Xinglin Peak burst into an uproar.

The peak masters were also a little stunned. In fact, including the great master, those who had seen Lin Shao back then all felt that Xue Li's temperament and medical skills were similar to those of Lin Shao back then. However, time had passed a long time after all, and after learning that Lin Shao's medical skills were a scam, most of them were not so serious about it. Fifteen years had passed and they had long forgotten about it. No one was as obsessed with Lin Shao's medical skills as the young great master.

Moreover, Xue Li is a fairy, so although they suspected that Xue Li and Lin Shao were related, they at most thought that they knew each other, or that Fairy Xue Li, as a fairy, had known the inside story of Fairy Lin Shao. They didn't expect that they were master and disciple, and that Lin Shao actually accepted Fairy Jiu Tian as his disciple.

The master uncle prostrated himself on the ground without raising his head. After a moment, he buried his head in his sleeves and laughed muffledly. It could not be said to be a laugh, as the sound was like both crying and laughing. Soon, tear marks appeared on his sleeves.

Today, he was given two people who made him happy. One was Lin Shao’s junior fellow apprentice, and the other was Lin Shao’s direct disciple. What a irony.

After the master burst into tears and laughter, the leaders of Xinglin Peak brought Xun Wang together to discuss the matter.

Half an hour later.

The chief peak master strode forward, looked down at the mountain, and said in a stern voice: "Yuan Shi! You have disgraced our master and ruined our reputation. You are not worthy of ascending to the immortal path again! Today, we are here to discuss and make a fair judgment. I will banish half of your cultivation. As the chief peak master, I will clean up the sect and expel you from Xinglin Peak! You are not allowed to climb the peak again!"

Every word is powerful and irrefutable.

The master shuddered when he heard this, and a huge stone in his heart fell to the ground, which also shattered his dream of dignity in this life. He kowtowed slowly and said: "Disciple... obey your command."

After he finished speaking, his body was shaking uncontrollably and tears were streaming down his face.

The matter came to an end here, and her aunt's reputation was restored from then on. Xue Li felt a heavy responsibility lifted from her shoulders and breathed a long sigh of relief.

It is still the Xinglin Association period, and all the immortal cultivators have gathered at Xinglin Peak. With such a big commotion, my aunt's matter will surely spread quickly and she will be successfully vindicated right away.

But Xue Li felt as if she had just woken up from a dream. She looked around dazedly to see how other people reacted to this incident.

The junior master was naturally delighted.

Dai Youzong didn't know when he came to the main peak. He kept hiding in the corner and wiping his tears with his sleeves.

The peak masters were either furious or sighing.

The disciples discussed among themselves—

"Fairy Xueli and Senior Sister Lin Shao were actually master and disciple!"

"It turns out that Sister Lin Shao was wrongly accused..."

"Back then, Nun Lin Shao was extremely charming..."

"I've long thought that Master Uncle is not a good person!"

There were all kinds of words and attitudes. It was the first time that Xue Li accomplished such a thing alone in the mortal world without her aunt's company. Looking at all the things in the mortal world, although she was happy for her aunt, she felt that it was not quite real.

However, at this time, where Xue Li could not see, the Wolf Queen was still watching her calmly.

Ever since Master Uncle came to Kefeng to look for Xueli, the Wolf Queen has been watching her from a distance.

She had originally intended to just come and see Xueli and then leave, but she didn't expect to run into something like this, so she wanted to take the opportunity to see how Xueli would deal with this kind of situation in the world, so she stayed.

According to Zi Lan's description, Xue Li was a fairy who had never left the fairyland. She was ignorant about the mortal world and even the fairy world. The Wolf Queen originally thought that Xue Li might not be able to handle it well, but it was understandable. Unexpectedly, Xue Li's performance was surprising.

She was calm and thoughtful. Not only did she successfully lead out the culprit, she saved herself and her junior uncle, and she also successfully overturned the case for her aunt.

The timing and method were well chosen. Xue Li made such a big deal out of it just to attract attention. As the saying goes, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels far and wide. It's easy for Fairy Shao Yin to have her reputation ruined during her misfortune in the mortal world, but it's very difficult to restore it. Moreover, some people in the world tend to believe in bad things rather than good things. If one wants to restore Fairy Shao Yin's reputation as much as possible, the only way is to make a big fuss like this.

Even if there are occasional omissions, they are understandable considering her age and experience.

If Fairy Shaoyin knew about this in the future, she would probably be very moved.

The Wolf Queen had not expected that Xue Li could handle such a big occasion. Now, although she was a little nervous among the crowd, mortals could not see her timidity. She was able to hold her own. The Wolf Queen could not help but feel surprised and a little amazed.

She knew that her son liked Fairy Snow Pear. Although she didn't know how far their relationship had progressed, the way the Wolf Queen looked at Fairy Snow Pear, her eyes were even kinder than before.

She looked for a while and saw that the matter was basically over. The subsequent cleanup work was not her concern. The Wolf Queen had been out for several days and there were still many important things to do in the Wolf Territory, so she planned to return home.

However, she had just turned around and taken a few steps when she saw a shadow rushing towards her from the horizon, and soon a human figure could be seen.

The one running towards here was actually a wolf officer from the Wolf Realm.

He looked anxious and sweaty, and the way he came over could be described as running very fast, looking very embarrassed.

The wolf queen had a bad feeling when she saw him in such a hurry, so she asked anxiously, "What happened?"

"My Lord Wolf Queen, something bad has happened!"

The wolf officer said anxiously.

"The young master suddenly got a cold and fell ill!"
