Many disciples' gaze fell on Baili Hongzhuang. As Baili Hongzhuang approached Qin Ai, it became clear to everyone that she was going to find him.
Many disciples felt a sense of imbalance about this. They also wanted an opportunity to get closer to the Palace Master, but as disciples, they didn't have the chance.
However, Baili Hongzhuang, a newly recruited disciple, seemed to enjoy various privileges, which left people dissatisfied.
Now, in such an important situation, Baili Hongzhuang boldly went to find the Palace Master. How could anyone tolerate it?
In fact, Baili Hongzhuang hadn't shown any special qualities since entering the Tiangang Sect until now. The only special thing about her was the various privileges she enjoyed. While other disciples had to stay in the Vermilion Bird Hall, Baili Hongzhuang mysteriously disappeared.
Even though she had returned to the Tiangang Sect, her figure was nowhere to be seen in the Vermilion Bird Hall.
Could it be that all of this was solely based on her relationship with the Young Master?
To become the Young Master's wife, she should at least prove her own strength. At least, the previous Han Xiling had consistently shown her abilities.
Because they couldn't measure up, everyone could still accept it.
But Baili Hongzhuang hadn't shown anything until now.
Baili Hongzhuang walked to Qin Ai's side amidst the discussions of the cultivators. She could clearly hear the discontented discussions.
Of course, many cultivators were intentionally speaking for her to hear.
She also understood that since she came to the Tiangang Sect, she hadn't shown a serious side of her cultivation. On the contrary, in the eyes of other disciples, she had nothing and was only trying to please Emperor Beichen.
This was not her original intention.
However, since entering the Tiangang Sect, there were many things she had to do. She couldn't spare the energy to consider other matters.
"Palace Master Qin."
Baili Hongzhuang respectfully bowed to Qin Ai. It had been over a month since she returned, and she hadn't seen Qin Ai, which was quite inappropriate.
Upon seeing Baili Hongzhuang, Qin Ai's face also revealed a smile.
"Oh, it's Hongzhuang! Why did you come here now? Is there something you need?"
Qin Ai's attitude was gentle and kind. Baili Hongzhuang, as the granddaughter of the Sect Master, was naturally his junior.
Moreover, he knew that the Sect Master seemed to be busy with something during this period, and Baili Hongzhuang and Emperor Beichen were rarely seen.
As the Palace Master, he also knew what kind of matters he should not inquire about. The Sect Master's arrangement of Baili Hongzhuang in the Vermilion Bird Hall was just for appearances' sake, so he granted Baili Hongzhuang absolute freedom.
The disciples present couldn't help but be surprised when they saw Qin Ai's attitude towards Baili Hongzhuang. They had never seen the Palace Master being so amiable and approachable.
Such a Palace Master was truly a first for them.
"Palace Master, the Sect Master has allowed me to participate in the Alchemist Grand Competition. I have come to report it," Baili Hongzhuang humbly and politely said. Regardless, she now belonged to the Vermilion Bird Hall, so it was natural to report such matters to the Palace Master.
Upon hearing this, Qin Ai's eyes showed a hint of surprise. He had never heard that Baili Hongzhuang was going to participate in the Alchemist Grand Competition before.
