Qi Zhibai said neither humbly nor arrogantly, "Making mistakes is not terrible. What is terrible is that some people want to go to extremes, showing no mercy and not giving others a chance to make amends."
“Brother Qi is right.” Yuan Feifan also slowly said, “Zhang Yun, I think Wuji Peak is more suitable for you. If you become my disciple, I can promise you that if you perform well, the position of chief disciple of Wuji Peak, as well as my future position as the peak master, will be yours.”
silence!
The entire fighting arena fell into a deathly silence because of Yuan Feifan's words!
Even Zhang Zigu's lips twitched slightly.
The matter progressed very smoothly to the point where Zhang Yun was convicted.
They thought they could use the power of the sect to cripple Zhang Yun's cultivation, expel him from the sect, and then find someone to kill him.
At the very least, Zhang Yun must be expelled from the sect. Once Zhang Yun leaves the Yunwu Sect's sphere of influence, he will send his clan's experts to surround and kill him, eliminating him in the bud and preventing future troubles.
But now, things seem to be going in a slightly wrong direction.
Weren't those old guys just discussing how to punish Zhang Yun?
How did it turn into a competition for apprentices?
Zhang Zigu felt helpless and speechless, and also a little wary of Zhang Yun.
I'm afraid that the only benefit this incident will bring is to ruin Zhang Yun's reputation.
With a deep sigh, Zhang Zigu thought for a long time, then the gloom on his face disappeared, and he laughed loudly at Zhang Yun.
“Zhang Yun, I know you come from a poor family and have had scarce resources for cultivation since childhood, so you resorted to crooked means to cultivate.”
"However, everyone makes mistakes in life. Zhang Yun, I understand what you did. Here's what we'll do: if you need anything in the future, you can come to your senior brother. I will do my best to help."
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
Although Zhang Zigu spoke very politely and friendly, anyone with a discerning eye could see at a glance that the smile plastered on his face was a deliberate, fake one.
In fact, Zhang Zigu did not want to give up, but the development of the situation had already exceeded his control.
Judging from the current trend, even a fool could see that Zhang Yun's cultivation level and status as a sect disciple would definitely be preserved.
If Zhang Zigu could have kept it, it would have been incredibly foolish of him to try and push forward.
If we cannot go so far as to kill Zhang Yun, then we cannot go to extremes.
This is an ancient saying passed down in the Zhangzigu clan.
At this moment, many disciples in the audience felt a little dizzy, and all of them had strange expressions on their faces.
Just when it seemed that Zhang Yun was in dire straits, the situation suddenly changed.
First came the two peak masters' powerful disciples, then Zhang Zigu's forgiveness.
Such a mutation, according to common sense, should not be possible at all.
But it happened to Zhang Yun, which is simply unbelievable!
"Senior Peak Masters, let's set aside the matter of becoming disciples for now. This disciple has other matters to attend to."
Watching Zhang Zigu's hurried departure, Zhang Yun slowly said, "Senior brother, it seems you've forgotten something, haven't you?"
Zhang Yun's sudden remark almost made Zhang Zigu trip, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Junior Brother Zhang Yun, what else do you want?" Zhang Zigu asked, trying to remain calm.
He knew exactly what Zhang Yun was going to say.
The scene where Zhang Yun instantly defeated Yun Qingtian is still vivid in my mind and fresh in my memory.
Therefore, no matter what Zhang Yun said, Zhang Zigu would rather die than accept the challenge.

Chapter 98 Desperate Counterattack (4th Update)
"Junior Brother Zhang Yun, what else do you want?" Zhang Zigu asked, trying to remain calm.
He knew exactly what Zhang Yun was going to say.
The scene where Zhang Yun instantly defeated Yun Qingtian is still vivid in my mind and fresh in my memory.
Therefore, no matter what Zhang Yun said, Zhang Zigu would rather die than accept the challenge.
"Esteemed seniors present, if I can prove that all of this is a frame-up by Zhang Zigu, what should I do?"
Zhang Yun's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He looked up at the podium and asked a question, which made Luo Chen and the others' eyes flicker with a strange expression.
"If you can truly prove it, then you are naturally innocent, but now there are witnesses and physical evidence. Do you still intend to deny it?"
Su Yu said with a gloomy expression, "Now that things have come to this, does Zhang Yun still want to deny it?"
"What a joke!" Lu Wuyai said angrily, "Do you think I'm blind?"
Just now, he went with Zhang Zigu to Zhang Yun's residence to collect evidence of his crimes.
Moreover, he also personally witnessed many stolen goods in Zhang Yun's residence.
Faced with the facts, Zhang Yun still tried to make a futile struggle, which reignited his anger that had just subsided.
"Zhang Yun, don't speak carelessly without evidence."
