Chapter 172 The enemy in the dark

"Elder Wu, please forgive Bai Zhi for being rude. Su Chen is not wrong. Huang Yang has been causing trouble behind his back."

Bai Zhi shook her head, still insisting on her decision.

"Hmph! Saint, you are so confused! Are you just facing an outsider like this?"

Wu Taining's face became even more ugly when he heard this.

He didn't expect Bai Zhi to defend an outsider. This was simply nonsense.

"Sister Bai Zhi, please get out of the way, I can't embarrass you."

Seeing the two people facing each other tit for tat, Su Chen frowned and spoke in a low voice.

He knew that what happened today could no longer be good, but he must not let Bai Zhi be harmed in the slightest.

"Look at the book, senior sister won't let you go!"

Bai Zhi was determined.

In her opinion, the whole thing happened because of herself, and she would never allow Su Chen to be bullied.

This scene immediately caused discussions among the surrounding disciples.

"Who on earth is this pretty boy to let the saint protect him like this?"

"No matter who he is, if he dares to offend our Tiandao Sect, he is seeking death!"

"It turns out that he is a newcomer who participated in the sect's recruitment assessment. I really don't know why he won the favor of the saint."

This incident quickly caused an uproar, especially among the male cultivators, whose eyes were red with envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The image of Angelica dahurica in their hearts is so beautiful, like the mysterious goddess of the Nine Heavens, people look up to it.

"Hmph, since the saint insists on protecting this person, she should give me a reason. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Seeing Bai Zhi still protecting Su Chen, Wu Taining said coldly with vicious eyes flashing.

Hearing this, Bai Zhi rolled her eyes in a circle, frowned with joy, pointed to a pillar in the distance and said: "Elder Wu, the ins and outs of the matter, you can look at the photo jade on it, and you will know what's going on? "

"snort!"

Wu Taining followed Bai Zhi's jade hand and looked towards the pillar, then snorted coldly, stepped on the void, and got the photo jade on the pillar.

Setting up such a photo jade at the new recruitment assessment site is to prevent anyone from cheating.

I didn't expect that it could come in handy at this time.

Wu Taining held the photo jade in his palm and injected spiritual power into it.

In an instant, the scene just now appeared in his mind.

Soon, he knew why Su Chen threatened Huang Yang.

He glanced at Su Chen and Bai Zhi again and understood the reason for the whole thing.

He put the photo jade back on the pillar, snorted coldly, turned around and left.

But before leaving, he glanced deeply at Su Chen.

Seeing Wu Taining leaving, many disciples were in an uproar.

Everyone found it incredible that the dignified guardian elder of Tiandao Sect actually left like this.

Although they knew that Huang Yang was at fault first, he was after all an inner disciple of Tiandao Sect and a lackey of the Holy Son Chu Xiu.

Elder Wu doesn't seem to buy into the Holy Son Chu Xiu's fault.

"Wangshu, let's go to the next assessment project!"

Without waiting for Su Chen to respond, Bai Zhi directly took Su Chen's big hand and rushed towards the next test item, not caring about the surprised looks of everyone.

At this moment, in her eyes, Su Chen was more important than anything else. As for other people's opinions, she didn't care at all.

Su Chen nodded slightly and let Bai Zhi hold his hand and leave. Only a group of dull disciples were left at the scene.

"Why did the saint hold that guy's hand so easily? Is the saint in love?"

A male disciple said with a stunned expression that he really couldn't understand why Bai Zhi would do this.

"Impossible! How could a saint like that kind of young boy? You must be overthinking." Another male disciple immediately retorted.

"good!"

The female disciples next to her also hurriedly agreed. They knew that Bai Zhi was always indifferent to male disciples.

"Then why is the saint so close to that guy?"

The disciple just scratched his head with a look of confusion on his face.

Hearing this, several female disciples around him were also stunned and fell into silence.

The next few assessments went very smoothly.

Su Chen followed Bai Zhi to the last assessment location.

I was surprised to find a familiar figure.

Surprisingly, it was Huang Yang who had been causing trouble in the dark.

However, at this moment, Huang Yang's clothes were messy, his breath was weak, his body was stained with blood, and he looked miserable.

"This...Huang Yang was beaten like this! Who beat him like this?"

Seeing Huang Yang's embarrassed appearance, Bai Zhi's eyes widened and she couldn't believe it.

You know, Huang Yang is a master in the inner sect, and he is the Son's lackey. No one dares to bully him.

Seeing Bai Zhi's confusion, Su Chen whispered in her ear: "Who else could it be? It must be his master, the Holy Son."

"Ah, this"

Hearing this, Bai Zhi couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaimed.

She never expected that Chu Xiu would do this.

Being so ruthless towards his subordinates shows how ruthless Chu Xiu is.

"Wangshu, what should we do now? Do you want to tell my sect leader?"

Bai Zhi's beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly, her pretty face full of worry.

Su Chen smiled faintly and said, "What's the use of telling her? Does she believe in the Holy Son more, or does she believe in you more?"

After hearing this, Bai Zhi's expression changed for a while, she sighed and said nothing more.

Indeed, with how insidious and ruthless Chu Xiu is, since he dared to do this, he would probably have settled it long ago, so why not let her get the handle.

"Okay, Senior Sister Bai Zhi, don't worry."

Su Chen patted Bai Zhi's shoulders and comforted her.

"What should we do now?"

"When the enemy comes, the general will stop it; when the water comes, the earth will cover it!" Su Chen said with a mysterious smile.

Hearing this, Bai Zhi rolled her eyes coquettishly. She found that she really couldn't figure out Su Chen's thoughts more and more.

When Huang Yang heard the words, he looked up and found that it was Su Chen and Bai Zhi, and his body instinctively shrank.

He was afraid of Su Chen.

Su Chen gave him a feeling that was too evil, just like a devil, which was frightening.

"You guys."

He opened his mouth to say something, but after meeting Su Chen's cold eyes, he was so scared that he swallowed the rest of the words into his stomach.

Finally, he mustered up the courage to say: "You passed"

He didn't want to see Su Chen again for a moment.

Thinking about sending this plague god away as soon as possible.

"Hmph!"

Hearing this, Su Chen snorted coldly, took the assessment pass form from his hand, turned around and took Bai Zhi away.

Looking at the backs of Su Chen and Bai Zhi leaving, Huang Yang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said fearfully: "Damn, I finally sent this killing god away."

Walking out of the test hall, Bai Zhi and Su Chen were walking on the top of a mountain, feeling very comfortable in the gentle evening breeze.

Su Chen followed Bai Zhi quietly.

This made Bai Zhi smile for the first time in a long time, and she suddenly stopped.

"Sister Bai Zhi, what's wrong?" Su Chen frowned slightly and asked.

"Nothing, I just haven't taken a walk like this for a long time."

Bai Zhi playfully stuck out her tongue and said with a smile.

Su Chen nodded and said nothing more.

At this moment, Su Chen felt a strong murderous aura.

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said coldly: "What are you doing sneakily, why don't you get out now!"
