Chapter 206
Zhou Xuan chuckled . “Of course . Since we are from the same sect, I will definitely be ‘worried’ about you . ” A cold light thoughtlessly flashed across his eyes when he finished speaking .

However, the other two disciples became even more dissatisfied upon hearing Zhou Xuan’s words .
Sect missions were different from rewarded missions .
If rewarded missions were a failure, the disciples would lose some time at most and would not receive any other punishments .
However…

If it was a mission appointed by the sect, it had to be completed . Otherwise, the disciples would be reprimanded by the warden and punished correspondingly once they returned to the sect .
Thus, participating disciples were exceptionally meticulous when they were doing sect missions as they were feared that a failed mission would negatively affect themselves and the sect .
Those two disciples sized up Ye Qingtang . Apart from her beautiful face, they despised everything else about Ye Qingtang .
“Junior Sister Ye, it’s been a month since you entered the sect . Have you been cultivating hard? Are you familiar with the basics of the Xuantian swordplay already?” A disciple asked meanly . He did not care about Zhou Xuan’s reasons for adding this new disciple into the team and was only concerned about whether he could complete his mission .

The young girl before him looked weak and did not look like she had the ability to complete the mission . Even if such a person followed them, not putting in any effort was the greatest contribution already . If she was a hindrance in their investigation, it would really be a big problem .
How could Ye Qingtang not hear the harshness in the person’s words? She was very clear that all of this was intentionally created by Zhou Xuan .

A smile passed by Zhou Xuan’s eyes when he saw the disciple making things difficult for Ye Qingtang .
These two junior brothers were specially selected out from the outer sect by him . They had an arrogant and self-conceited nature . Even if he did not openly do anything to Ye Qingtang, Ye Qingtang would already be troubled just by the two’s verbal attacks .
However…
As that disciple stretched his hand out, Ye Qingtang suddenly looked up . Her eyes were obviously smiling, but the coldness in her eyes caused his hand to freeze in midair .
He did not know why either, but he felt as though he fell into an ice cellar when he was stared at by her .
“Senior brother, you’re caring too much . ” Ye Qingtang scoffed .
“You…”
“If you don’t want to do the mission, then get lost quickly . Stop wasting time here . ” Lin Long, who had remained silent all along, suddenly walked up to stand before Ye Qingtang and looked at the trouble-making disciples coldly .
That disciple saw Lin Long standing in front of him with a cold expression and was taken aback immediately . Fear flashed across his eyes as he said rather guiltily, “Senior… Senior Sister Lin…”
