Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Pavilion Master Intervenes

The uninvited guest was none other than Senior Brother Qing who had been sent flying by Lin Chen with a punch earlier.

At that moment, Qing Qizheng was staring at Lin Chen, with anger in his heart reaching its peak.

He originally thought that the person who had injured his subordinate, Zhao Ye, was a formidable character, but to his surprise, it turned out to be a weakling at the seventh level of the Reverting Void realm.

Qing Qizheng himself was a true True Disciple, and among the True Disciples, his reputation was not ordinary; he was indeed distinguished.

By now, Lin Chen’s name had risen to prominence within the Formation Sect, known by many Inner Sect Disciples and high-ranking True Disciples.

However, Qing Qizheng was oblivious to this, not even aware of the intense battle between Lin Chen and Gong Wenwen.

At this point, Lin Chen frowned slightly, not understanding why he was always inexplicably attracting trouble.

With Qing Qizheng’s gaze, other disciples inside the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion also gathered around to watch the drama unfold.

Qing Qizheng was known within the Formation Sect for his notoriety, a recognized villain.

"This guy actually dared to offend the True Disciple Qing Qizheng; it looks like he’s going to suffer this time, and it’ll be tough to recover without spending a few months in bed."

"What are you talking about, do you know who this person is? This is Lin Chen who has recently become famous in the sect!"

"What? He is Lin Chen? I heard that he even defeated Gong Wenwen not long ago."

"It’s more than just a defeat. Lin Chen won with absolute superiority in one move; Qing Qizheng might hit a wall today."

"That’s not necessarily true; Qing Qizheng is far more powerful than Gong Wenwen. Just because Lin Chen could win against Gong Wenwen doesn’t mean he can also win against Qing Qizheng."

"Moreover, even if Lin Chen can win, this matter won’t be easily settled. Don’t forget that Qing Qizheng has the support of the Ten Great True Disciples behind him!"

The onlookers began to discuss fervently.

At this time, the Guardian Elder, Elder Wang, heard about the situation and originally did not want to intervene, because handling such matters could always lead to trouble.

He intended to side with Qing Qizheng in dealing with the issue.

However, upon arriving at the scene and discovering that the person Qing Qizheng was in conflict with was Lin Chen, who possessed a Second-Class Merit Command, he felt a throbbing headache.

He had originally intended to pretend he was unaware of the issues arising within the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, but now that the situation had escalated, he felt caught between a rock and a hard place.

"Nephew Masters, let’s not blow things out of proportion. There must be some misunderstanding. Today, please give this old man some face and let’s let bygones be bygones."

Elder Wang approached Lin Chen and Qing Qizheng, trying to mediate the conflict between them.

After all, neither was someone he, a Guardian Elder, could easily offend.

If he accidentally offended either party, he would be in deep trouble.

After hearing what Elder Wang said, Lin Chen did not say much.

However, upon hearing Elder Wang’s words, Qing Qizheng’s expression soured, and he glared fiercely at Elder Wang.

"Who do you think you are, daring to interfere? Big face, do you think your face matters much?"

Qing Qizheng snapped coldly.

Under normal circumstances, True Disciples and Guardian Elders would hold similar status within the Formation Sect, but as Elder Wang was older and deeply established within the sect, he should have been shown respect.

However, Qing Qizheng, relying on the support of the Ten Great True Disciples, had no regard for Elder Wang’s face, openly berating him and leaving Elder Wang in a highly awkward position.

Despite feeling infuriated, Elder Wang could only swallow his anger, not daring to offend the other party.

"You insolent junior, get out of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion!"

Just as Qing Qizheng was scolding Elder Wang, a formidable voice rang out within the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, intimidating everyone present.

Upon hearing this, Qing Qizheng’s expression changed dramatically.

Lin Chen’s gaze also sharpened, looking towards the upper floors of the pavilion, as it was clear that someone of higher status had spoken.

The one who had spoken was the Master of Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, whose status was comparable to Mu Qianqiu’s, on equal footing with the Ten Great True Disciples within the Formation Sect.

Therefore, even though Qing Qizheng dared to confront Elder Wang directly, he did not dare to disrespect the Master of Spiritual Treasure Pavilion.

Even the gap in cultivation was an insurmountable gulf.

"You’re lucky today, brat, but don’t think you’re safe just because you’re hiding in the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion. If you’re capable, stay hidden in here forever."

"And you, wench, don’t think you’ll be fine just because this trash is protecting you. Here’s your choice: if you don’t come and serve me tonight, you might as well hide in the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion with this piece of trash."

Qing Qizheng glared fiercely at Lin Chen and Qiu Ya, then left the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion with his subordinates.

Although he was arrogant in front of Lin Chen and Qiu Ya, he had to be sensible in front of the Master of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion.

He did not expect that the Master of Spiritual Treasure Pavilion would intervene in such a trivial matter today, presumably because of consideration for the Ten Great True Disciples behind him.

If he continued to make a scene, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After Qing Qizheng left, an old man with a long beard slowly descended from the upper floor.

This old man was none other than Zhu Geng, the Master of Spiritual Treasure Pavilion.

For Zhu Geng, incidents like the insult Lin Chen and Qiu Ya had suffered from Qing Qizheng were not rare; such things were commonplace within the Formation Sect.

However, Zhu Geng could not tolerate Qing Qizheng’s rudeness towards Elder Wang.

After all, Elder Wang was one of his Guardian Elders. Qing Qizheng’s brazen disrespect was why Zhu Geng spoke up to expel him.

As for Lin Chen, Zhu Geng was aware that he had received a Second-Class Merit Command, and observed that Lin Chen had not reacted impulsively to Qing Qizheng’s insults, nor flaunted his own status, but instead had maintained his composure.

Zhu Geng couldn’t help but wonder, had he not stepped in, how Lin Chen would have dealt with the situation.
