Chapter 123: Neither Reward Nor Punishment Shall Be Given!

"You..." Lin Canglang's expression turned unusually strange. Wasn't Lin Xian'er supposed to have left for Tianwei Academy already? How could she be involved in this matter?

Lin Canglang took a deep breath, and some of the anger in his heart dissipated. He asked in a deep voice, "Alright, tell me, what exactly is going on here?"

Lin Xian'er cleared her throat and lowered her voice. "Sect Leader, from what I know, the reason behind this incident is that members of the Iron Blood Alliance bullied our disciples, acting tyrannically. Ling Feng... Senior Uncle, he intervened to seek justice for the disciples. He taught Jing Wuxue a lesson. Although his methods were a bit extreme, he was also helping to rid the sect of a troublemaker."

With Lin Xian'er speaking up first, the surrounding disciples clenched their teeth and began shouting loudly, "Sect Leader, members of the Iron Blood Alliance truly deserve punishment. They deceive and oppress fellow disciples. They're nothing but a bunch of scoundrels!"

"Sect Leader, Senior Uncle Ling Feng did nothing wrong!"

"This is karma! Jing Wuxue brought it upon himself. His death is no loss!"

"If the sect leader wishes to blame Senior Uncle Ling Feng, we are willing to share his guilt!"

The emotions of the crowd were stirred up, and almost everyone overwhelmingly supported Ling Feng.

In the matter of overthrowing the Iron Blood Alliance, the majority of ordinary disciples undoubtedly found it gratifying.

Seeing disciples one by one pleading for Ling Feng, Lin Canglang was secretly surprised. In such a short time, Ling Feng had managed to gain the support of so many disciples.

Even he, as the sect leader, probably didn't have such influence.

"Sect Leader, if you insist on punishing Ling Feng, then I am also willing to share his guilt!" Lin Xian'er looked up at Lin Canglang, who was hovering in the air, and cast a pleading gaze at him.

"Ah, never mind!"

Lin Canglang gritted his teeth. Even without his daughter's plea, he found it difficult to punish Ling Feng under these circumstances.

Furthermore, with his daughter speaking up, he had no choice but to wave his sleeves and say in a deep voice, "Ling Feng has acted to uphold justice for his fellow disciples, which deserves commendation. However, his methods were too brutal, and he failed to inform me beforehand, which was improper. This time, his merits and demerits offset each other, so neither reward nor punishment shall be given!"

Upon hearing the sect leader's final decision, the crowd immediately erupted into cheers.

"Hooray!"

"The sect leader is so wise!"

Jiang Wanqing, Su Hongxiu, Zhou Yan, Wang Qiang, and others gathered around Ling Feng, their faces filled with excitement.

They did it!

They had truly avenged Luo Jianying and uprooted the Iron Blood Alliance completely!

Lin Xian'er also bowed to Lin Canglang with a smile, saying, "Thank you, Fath—cough, Sect Leader!"

Lin Canglang felt a hint of helplessness in his heart and also some worry. Could it be that my daughter has some favorable feelings towards Ling Feng, that fiend?

If that is indeed the case, I have to act swiftly to nip this trend in the bud and extinguish any budding affection towards Ling Feng!

Ling Feng had long anticipated how Lin Canglang would handle the situation. After all, a deceased direct disciple held little value, while Ling Feng could still help him with Duanmu Qingshan's sword manual.

However, Lin Canglang might have miscalculated. Once Duanmu Qingshan emerged from seclusion, his days of ease would come to an end.

Of course, now was not the time to reveal his true intentions. He quietly stepped forward and bowed to Lin Canglang. "Thank you, Sect Leader."

Lin Canglang narrowed his eyes, staring at Ling Feng with indifference. "Ling Feng, let's consider this matter settled. I hope you won't forget your identity. As a disciple of the Wenxian Sect, if you repeatedly violate the sect rules, I won't show favoritism. I have ways to punish you!"

He subtly hinted to Ling Feng, reminding him that he still harbored the Golden Silkworm Gu Poison in his body, and the deadline of one month was approaching rapidly. Without an antidote, experiencing the onset of the poison would be quite unpleasant!

Ling Feng naturally discerned the underlying message in Lin Canglang's words. He smiled faintly and replied, "Rest assured, Sect Leader. I know my boundaries."

"As long as you know your boundaries!" Lin Canglang swept his sleeves and then announced loudly, "The Iron Blood Alliance is hereby disbanded. Henceforth, disciples are not allowed to form factions or engage in private dealings. Those who violate this will be severely punished! As for the aftermath, it will be handled by you, Li Liang."

"Understood." Li Liang nodded quickly, acknowledging the order.

With a deep glance at Ling Feng, Lin Canglang then shifted his gaze to Lin Xian'er briefly before swiftly redirecting his attention. A gust of breeze enveloped him, and in the blink of an eye, he vanished towards the direction of the Liuxian Peak.

Lin Xian'er curled her lips, understanding that her father wanted her to come to him. She didn't immediately leave but instead walked briskly towards Ling Feng, smiling as she said, "Ling Feng... Senior Uncle, right?"

Ling Feng's gaze fell on Lin Xian'er, and he seemed slightly taken aback.

A gorgeous... man?

However, soon Ling Feng recognized from certain features that this was actually a girl disguised as a boy.

Despite the girl's disguise and even the use of a fake Adam's apple, as a physician, if one couldn't distinguish between genders, they would be unworthy of the title of healer.

Ling Feng was sure about it, yet he didn't intentionally expose it.

"Wow, y-you're so beautiful!" Su Hongxiu, who was standing beside, couldn't help but praise upon seeing Lin Xian'er. However, realizing that the other party was a man, she immediately blushed, hastily waving her hand and saying, "No, no, what I meant is that you look good."

Such an appearance indeed made women feel extremely jealous.

Su Hongxiu and Jiang Wanqing's appearance could also be considered stunning, with smiles as beautiful as flowers. However, compared to Lin Xian'er, there was still a gap.

This was a beauty that could rival Yue Yunlan.

Lin Xian'er cleared her throat a few times, lowering her voice as she said, "You must be joking. You are the one who is beautiful and lovely. When describing a man, it's better to use 'handsome.'"

Su Hongxiu's pretty face blushed, quickly lowering her head, yet couldn't help but sneak glances repeatedly. This young man was just excessively handsome.

Ling Feng smiled faintly and bowed to Lin Xian'er. "I am Ling Feng. May I know how to address you, brother?"

"I'm called Lin..." Lin Xian'er paused for a moment, then suddenly felt mischievous and blurted out, "What a coincidence, I'm also called Lin Feng."

Ling Feng rubbed his nose, knowing that this was an alias. He found it amusing but still nodded and smiled. "So it's Brother Lin Feng. Thanks to Brother Lin's assistance just now, my friends and I didn't have to suffer any minor injuries. Many thanks."

Lin Xian'er's pupils contracted. During the chaos just now, she did indeed secretly subdue several experts stationed at the Iron Blood Alliance headquarters. She didn't expect Ling Feng to have noticed all of it.

This person's observation skills are truly astonishing!

"Turns out you knew all along." Lin Xian'er stuck out her tongue, appearing exceptionally charming and cute.

"With Brother Lin's strength, I'm afraid you're not just an ordinary inner sect disciple of the Wenxian Sect, are you?"

"Actually, I am a student of the Tianwei Academy. There is an elder in the inner sect of the Wenxian Sect who is my senior. I came here specifically to visit that elder. I didn't expect to meet a great hero like you. You are truly remarkable!"

Lin Xian’er fabricated an identity, but the second half of the sentence was sincere from the heart.

"Brother Lin, you overpraise me. I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave for now!"

Ling Feng bowed once again to Lin Xian'er, then took large strides, passing Lin Xian'er and fixing his gaze on the elite members of the Iron Blood Alliance kneeling on the ground like dead dogs. He said in a cold voice, "Those who want to live, bring him and him, and then follow me!"

With that, he pointed to the barely conscious Huang Gou lying on the ground and the terrified Liu Quanhai. He intended to bring these two to the bedside of Luo Jianying to kneel down and apologize.

The other high-ranking members of the Iron Blood Alliance, though their lives might be spared, would still face severe punishment. They too would have to kneel at the doorstep of Luo Jianying. They would only be allowed to rise when Luo Jianying recovered from his illness.

The elite members of the Iron Blood Alliance knew well of Ling Feng's ruthless nature, so they dared not defy him in the slightest. They immediately lifted up the two useless individuals and followed behind Ling Feng, marching mightily towards the Yunmiao Peak.

As Lin Xian'er observed Ling Feng and his companions departing, she couldn't help but pout, pondering quietly to herself. Will I ever cross paths again with a talent like Ling Feng in the future, perhaps at the Tianwei Academy?
