Chapter 1891  Twin Brother

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, Yuan immediately went to meet Elder Bai.

Since Elder Bai was located inside the center court, Yuan had to leave the outer court and pass the inner court.

”Stop right there, Outer Court disciple. Only Inner Court disciples are allowed beyond this point.”

The guard at the border stopped Yuan.

”I was summoned by Grand Elder Bai,” said Yuan.

”Give me one moment.”

The guard retrieved a communication jade slip and, a few moments later, stepped aside.

”Youʼre free to enter,” he said.

Yuan entered the inner court and went straight for the center court, where he was stopped again.

”I was summoned by the Grand Elder,” Yuan repeated.

The guard also did the same thing as the previous guard.

A few moments later, Yuan was allowed to enter the center court.

From there, Yuan went straight to Elder Baiʼs office.

”Itʼs Disciple Xiao Yang,” Yuan said after knocking on his door.

”You may enter.”

A calm yet stern voice answered a moment later.

Once Yuan entered the room, Elder Bai, who was sitting behind his desk, frowned.

ʼWhat the hell? How is he at the third level of Spirit Master? I swear he was only at the peak of Spirit Warrior two weeks ago! Did he consume a treasure during that time?ʼ Elder Bai was greatly shocked by Yuanʼs cultivation progress.

”Where is the disciple who went to fetch you?” Elder Bai asked a moment later after controlling his emotions.

”Do you mean that Inner Court disciple messenger? He left as soon as he passed your message. Was he supposed to come here with me?” Yuan asked with a genuinely puzzled face.

Elder Bai clenched his fist slightly after hearing this, as he was certain he ordered the Inner Court disciple to bring Yuan to his office.

ʼHow dare that brat defy my orders…ʼ he sighed inwardly.

”How did you make it here without a guide? Youʼre just an Outer Court disciple. Thereʼs no way youʼve been to the center court before, much less navigate through it.”

Yuan smiled and said, ”I thought I told you—I came from the future. I have been to every nook and cranny of this place.”

”What kind of nonsense—forget it.” Elder Bai cut himself off, exhaling sharply before shifting his focus. His expression hardened as he stood up and strode toward Yuan, his presence imposing.

Locking eyes with Yuan, he stared at him with an intense gaze, as if trying to see through him. ”Letʼs get straight to the point.”

”Not only did you get rid of a monster who has harmed many innocent disciples, but you were also punished for it. Although Bai Zhan may have been my grandson, I will never side with evil. Even if he were my son, I wouldʼve cut him down the moment I learned of his atrocities.”

”How righteous of you,” Yuan remarked.

Although Yuan may have sounded sarcastic, he didnʼt doubt Elder Baiʼs words.

”Since you wasted two years inside the Confinement Chamber, Iʼll compensate you with 25 contribution points—just enough for you to qualify to partake in the Inner Court examination,” Elder Bai said.

Although most sect elders are only allowed to give out five points at most, Elder Bai held the second-highest position within the sect as the Grand Elder. If he wanted to, he could give Yuan a hundred contribution points.

”I wasnʼt expecting you to reward me when I walked through those doors, but thank you.”

Elder Bai sneered and said, ”I may be rewarding you, but that doesnʼt mean I like you. Your arrogance knows no bounds, and youʼre disrespectful to your seniors. The next time you show me even an ounce of disrespect, Iʼll punish you accordingly.”

”I will keep that in mind.”

”You may leave.”

Yuan gave him a bow before leaving the place.

”25 contribution points, huh? I should take the Inner Court examination as soon as possible,” Yuan muttered to himself as he left the center court and entered the inner court.

While Yuan pondered his next steps, he noticed some disciples were looking in his direction, and before he could dwell on it, they called out to him.

”What the hell are you doing in that uniform, Tian Yang?”

Yuan stopped walking and turned to look at the group of disciples who called out to them.

There were three of them, and they were all Inner Court disciples.

Yuan acted ignorant and asked, ”Are you talking to me?”

”Unless your name isnʼt Tian Yang, who else?” One of them said.

”I didnʼt know you missed being an Outer Court disciple that badly.”

”It suits you, though.”

The three disciples started laughing in a mocking tone.

”...”

Tian Yang always fought back against those who messed with him, so he had a lot of enemies within the sect. ”Sorry, but Iʼm not Tian Yang. My name is Xiao Yang.,” Yuan said.

The three disciples exchanged looks with each other before laughing even harder.

”What are you trying to pull this time? Did you hit your head and forget your own identity?”

”I think heʼs trying to run away.”

”What? That infamous Tian Yang, whoʼs known for fighting back, is running away? Unbelievable!”

The three disciples began approaching Yuan with cold smiles on their faces.

”Stop right there.”

Another voice suddenly resounded, halting their movements.

”Che.”

The disciples sucked their teeth in annoyance when they realized who just spoke.

”Looks like your mommy is here to save you… again.” One of them spoke to Yuan through voice transmission.

The disciples then bowed to this individual.

”Greetings, Elder Sun.”

”Leave that disciple alone. Heʼs not Tian Yang but Xiao Yang, an Outer Court disciple,” Elder Sun said as she approached them.

”What? Seriously? But…”

The disciples looked at Yuan with dumbfounded faces.

Yuan shrugged, ”I told you I wasnʼt Tian Yang.”

”You must be his twin brother then…”

”That must be it!”

”How much longer are you going to bother this Outer Court disciple? Scram before I make you!” Elder Sun raised her voice.

”Sorry, Elder Sun. Weʼll leave immediately.”

The three disciples looked at Yuanʼs face one last time in a doubtful manner before leaving the scene.
