Lou An, enraged and feeling he was framed, attacked Xu Wendong with the intent to kill, but Xu Wendong countered, severing Lou An's arm. Li Jiayin intervened, stopping their fight and deciding to bring both Lou An and Xu Wendong before the Elders to settle the dispute.

Seeing the situation, Lou An immediately put on a pitiful look and fell to his knees with a thud, crying out with tears streaming down his face, "Master, I beg you to stand up for your disciple!"

After saying this, Lou An banged his head on the ground three times, his forehead hitting the ground with a dull sound. Not long after, his forehead swelled red.

"Who is it, who has injured my disciple like this?" The elderly man, with hair as white as winter snow, erupted with a strong power, his robe fluttering in the impact of this force.

His eyes rose with intense murderous intent, glaring at everyone, as if his gaze could slice people into a thousand pieces.

"It was him!" Lou An pointed fiercely at Xu Wendong, his finger trembling as if he wished Xu Wendong dead on the spot.

At this moment.

The old man was furious beyond restraint and attacked without a word.

His palm instantly became huge, whistling with the wind, striking towards Xu Wendong, as if the air itself cracked with this palm strike.

However, Li Jiayin reacted swiftly, stepping forward quickly to stand in front of Xu Wendong.

The Ice Crystal Long Sword in her hand shimmered with a cold light, as if challenging the old man.

"Elder An Guang, please calm your anger." Li Jiayin frowned and said immediately, "This matter is related to Lin Mo junior brother, but he is not at fault."

"What are you saying? He ruined my disciple’s arm, and you say he’s not at fault?" Elder An Guang, as one of the Eight Great Elders, held a high status in the Heavenly Nether Sect.

He was usually very protective, and upon hearing Li Jiayin say this, he was even more furious.

"Elder, here’s what happened..." Jiang Long hurried forward, his expression anxious, and immediately recounted in detail what happened at the bronze gate.

As he mentioned Xu Wendong managing to reach the Ninth Layer of the Nine-layered Glazed Treasure Tower, everyone’s expressions changed instantly.

The originally angry gazes now transformed into looks of surprise and admiration.

"This boy, reaching the Ninth Layer?"

"His talent is astounding!"

"It seems he was indeed the one who broke the trial and allowed us to enter the ruins early."

"Hahaha, this boy is impressive, I want to take him as my disciple."

Several elders’ eyes shone brightly, looking at Xu Wendong as if seeing a rare treasure.

Excitement sparked in their eyes, as if they could already see Xu Wendong becoming a strong figure under their guidance.

Who wouldn’t want such a remarkably gifted disciple to strengthen their own sect?

Even Elder An Guang was stunned, his previously angry expression freezing instantly. He looked at Lou An and then at Xu Wendong, suddenly feeling his disciple was less appealing.

If he could take Xu Wendong as a disciple, how great it would be, maybe his status in the sect could rise even higher.

"Since he managed to reach the Ninth Layer, did he obtain any treasure?" Elder Xuanlu hurriedly asked, his eyes full of anticipation, clearly more concerned about this.

Li Jiayin and Jiang Long shook their heads helplessly, their faces showing deep regret, saying, "Originally, Lin junior brother was about to obtain a treasure, but..."

"But Lou An secretly attacked, trying to harm Lin junior brother, causing Lin junior brother to enter the Ninth Layer but not obtain the supreme treasure, instead getting a very ordinary old small sword."

After they finished speaking, the faces of the eight elders showed shock.

Their eyes were filled with anger and pity, anger at Lou An’s actions, pity that Xu Wendong lost the chance to gain an important treasure.

Xu Wendong didn’t hesitate, directly taking that broken small sword from his chest and forcefully throwing it out.

Everyone gathered around it, looking closely, and frowned. This small sword looked ordinary, the blade rusted all over, with nothing remarkable about it—it was practically junk.

Seeing this, the faces of several elders turned extremely somber.

Their eyes were filled with disgust for Lou An—this guy was not only narrow-minded but also ruined the faction’s important matters.

"Master, you must avenge me, he ruined my arm, his crime is heinous!" Lou An was still unwilling, rushing to Elder An Guang, speaking excitedly, his eyes full of pleading.

But at this moment Elder An Guang was overcome with rage, directly slapping him.

"Snap!"

This slap was extremely powerful, Lou An seemed like a kite with a broken string, tracing a perfect arc in the air, and crashing heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.

A trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, his face full of astonishment and incomprehension.

The faces of several elders showed immense satisfaction, that Lou An deserved to be hit!

His deeds were truly infuriating.

"You bastard! Who told you to harm your fellow sect members?" Elder An Guang was furious beyond restraint. Though he usually protected his own, he valued the sect’s reputation even more.

Now the facts were before him, the disciple he taught was so narrow-minded, unable to see fellow sect members gaining opportunities.

Xu Wendong had already reached the Ninth Layer, almost obtaining a treasure.

And because of Lou An, all efforts went to waste?

One must know that once Xu Wendong obtained the treasure, it would definitely be a treasure beyond Sixth Grade!

Such a thing Xu Wendong couldn’t use immediately, it could likely be handed to the sect, thus this treasure would belong to the eight elders!

Lou An caused them to lose a valuable treasure!

"This boy should be killed!"

"Yes, kill him, as a warning to others!"

"Destroying fellow sect members’ opportunities and being so narrow-minded to accuse viciously, he’s truly seeking death!"

Several elders glared angrily, each voice as cold as ice.

Their eyes were full of murderous intent, as if they wanted to tear Lou An apart.

Lou An stumbled up awkwardly, his eyes full of fear and despair, never imagining things would reach such a state, he thought his master would help him deal with Xu Wendong.

"Lou An is a core disciple after all, so let Elder An Guang personally handle this." Li Jiayin said calmly, her voice carrying a touch of undeniable authority, "As for Lin Mo junior brother, he does not have a master at the moment, I will inform the Sect Master to assign a master to Lin Mo junior brother."

"There’s no need to trouble the Sect Master, why not let this boy join my ranks."

"I think it’s better for him to come to me."

"I haven’t taken a disciple in a long time, he should come to me."

The eight elders immediately began fighting fiercely, they all gathered in front of Xu Wendong, their eyes full of intense adoration.

Their faces were full of smiles, eyes filled with anticipation, as if showing their sincerity to Xu Wendong.

For a moment, even Xu Wendong was stunned.

He had never imagined he would become so sought-after, a figure many elders were vying for!
