Chapter 100 Factional Struggle

Ye Ling teleported back to the Medicine Valley, intending to take advantage of the dusk to return to the sect's spiritual cave without knowing it, waiting for the whole team to set off tomorrow to rush to Dong Lingze for training.

Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, the disciple guarding the teleportation array hurried forward to salute as if he had seen a treasure: "Senior Brother! Are you back? Hehe, Senior Brother has always lived in seclusion and devoted himself to cultivation. There are few of us like him. It’s a chance to meet my senior brother.”

Ye Ling's heart moved and he asked: "Do you know, in the past few days, has my master been retreating in the back mountain for meditation? Or is he doing business in the Medicine Valley Hall?"

The disciple guarding the teleportation array said respectfully: "Report to senior brother! The sect master is practicing in the back mountain. I went to the main hall to return to my life today, but I have never seen the sect master."

Ye Ling nodded and walked into the dusk. Along the way, his eyes showed a deep sigh, and he thought to himself: "After Master appointed me as the eldest disciple of the sect, He immediately retreated into seclusion, regardless of the sect's big and small matters. Obviously, he was also under pressure to hide from the Yuan Cultivation Family, and he did not allow Zuo Boming and Xie Xiang to question, so he simply retreated into seclusion. Xiu, don’t let anyone disturb him.”

Ye Ling sighed. It seemed that it was not easy to be the sect leader. He, the eldest disciple of the sect, was chosen because the sect leader had to fight against all the opinions. Ye Ling knew very well that in the entire Medicine Valley, there were many people who were dissatisfied with him, especially the elite disciples who were going to Dong Lingze for training. A few disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Family such as Yuan Hao were not convinced by him at all, and even hugged him. Targeting Ye Ling with hatred and hostility.

Among the remaining fifteen or sixteen people, those who were disciples of the seventh level of Qi training like Ye Ling were better off, but those with higher cultivation levels than him, such as Zuo Boming and Xie Xiang, were also dissatisfied with him.

"Tomorrow I will rush to Dong Lingze for training. Although I am a senior brother, the elite disciples of the same sect are almost unreliable and cannot form a team with them. Otherwise, people will be unpredictable and betrayal of teammates can happen at any time. It might happen! It would be safer for me to experience it alone.”

Besides them, Ye Ling also needs to be wary of Elder Song, who is leading the trip. Who knows if he has colluded with the old thief Zhou Chong. This Dong Lingze experience can be said to be dangerous at every step. If you are not careful, you will lose everything! It could take your life at any time.

Thinking of this, Ye Ling, in order to remain vigilant enough, disappeared directly into the water and quietly returned to the spiritual vein cave, where he sat cross-legged and meditated, tempering the body with elixirs and practicing daily. All Ye Ling was thinking about were ways to deal with his fellow sects, weighing the strengths of both the enemy and ourselves, and thinking about all possible scenarios. It seems that compared to a dangerous place like Donglingze, the enemies from the same sect are even more dangerous!

Finally, Ye Ling made up his mind. The only thing that made him confident was his own strength! In addition, the other team leader, Elder Xuanqing, is pretty good to him and can be trusted.

As for the elite disciples who set off together, Ye Ling had never spent time with them day and night. There was no brotherhood at all. Apart from a hostile relationship, it was a relationship of mutual use!

Ye Ling thought about all this clearly and felt calm in his heart, just waiting to take advantage of the opportunity and act accordingly.

On the next day, the bell of Yaogu Sect's main hall rang five times. Ye Ling arrived as scheduled and saw the elite disciples of various sects gathered at the Taoist altar.

Ye Ling's guess was not bad. There were only two groups in the Taoist altar: one group was headed by Yuan Hao, who were all descendants of the cultivating immortal family; the other group was headed by Zuo Boming, who made up the majority, and were all elites of the sect. 'Ying disciple.

No one greeted Ye Ling, and he was completely isolated. Even the few elite disciples who originally congratulated him on becoming senior brother pretended not to see it.

Yuan Hao stared at Ye Ling coldly, and curled his lips at a monk in apricot-yellow clothes next to him, as if he was transmitting instructions from his spiritual consciousness.

The apricot-yellow-shirted monk understood, stepped forward, casually cupped his hands, and said casually: "Hey! Isn't this Senior Brother Ye Lingye? For this Donglingze experience, we have prepared top-grade or even top-grade magic weapons and talismans. , why don’t you see senior brother shopping around?”

Ye Ling had already seen everything and knew that he was here to cause trouble. He said calmly: "I have been refining elixirs and practicing meditation in the ice cave. I didn't make much preparation. With my cultivation level, I can't do anything in Donglingze." During the training period, just practice some Taoist techniques, and the magic weapons and equipment don’t need to be of the highest quality.”

"Haha, you have no money!" Yuan Hao laughed wildly.

Several disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Family immediately echoed and laughed heartily. They all looked at Ye Ling, who came from behind, with contempt, as if they were ashamed to have such a senior brother.

Ye Ling said coldly: "Lingshi is nothing to me."

After saying that, Ye Ling stood with his hands behind his back, standing alone in front of the Taoist altar, quietly waiting for the time to set off.

Yuan Hao laughed loudly and said: "You don't even have a third-level top-grade robe, how can you pretend to be a hero! Tell me, besides the fourth-level spiritual beast given to him by the elders of the Immortal Sect, what else does he have? There is no cultivation, no strength, just relying on the fourth-level spiritual beast in the foundation-building stage to be our senior brother, how ridiculous!"

Ye Ling turned a deaf ear to the ridicule of the children of the Xiu Xian family. His true strength was not just what he said. What's more, Ye Ling didn't want to 'show' his wealth in front of them as early as possible, and he would never show off his several trump cards to anyone. .

Zuo Boming and other elite disciples on the opposite side were gloating at first as Ye Ling was mocked by Yuan Hao and others, but in the end, they saw that Ye Ling ignored them completely, and Yuan Hao and other disciples of the immortal family kept belittling Ye Ling for being poor and having nothing but good luck, and not even having a top-grade equipment, which gradually aroused the common people's hatred of the enemy!

Zuo Boming shouted in a deep voice: "Yuan Hao! Are you making insinuations and looking down on us commoners?"

Yuan Hao was surprised: "This... Senior Brother Zuo, please don't misunderstand, I have no such intention, haha, we are talking to Ye Ling. We just don't like his plain and shabby clothes, and he doesn't even have a top-grade robe. Tell me, if the disciples from other sects see this, it will be embarrassing for us Yaogu Sect."

Behind Zuo Boming, more than a dozen elite disciples all stood up. Eight out of ten of them did not have third-level top-grade equipment, and they all glared at Yuan Hao. These people were all born into the common people. Although they were not as poor as Ye Ling who slept in Fengqiao Bridge Cave before entering the valley, they did not have the support of a cultivation family, and they did not have many spirit stones. They all relied on their good qualifications and spiritual roots to cultivate from the first level of Qi training to the late stage of Qi training.

Therefore, what these elite disciples hate most is the children of the immortal cultivation families who brag about being rich, and they all refute Yuan Hao passionately.

"What? You said that the senior brother is shabby and has no top-grade equipment. Do you want to laugh at us too?"

"Yuan Hao, this is the Yaogu Sect Daoist Altar, not your Yuan family compound! Be more respectful! What do you mean you are ashamed without top-grade magic tools and robes?"

Everyone talked at once, and they wanted to have a discussion with the five children of the immortal cultivation families.

Even Xie Xiang looked at Ye Lingxiaoshu's back with sympathy. After a brief discussion with Zuo Boming, he walked forward and said softly: "We have all received the top-grade God-Returning Pills that the senior brother sent the day before yesterday! It is more than usual, which shows that the senior brother is good at alchemy! Haha, I told Senior Brother Zuo that I would invite the senior brother to join our team. I wonder what the senior brother thinks?"
