Junie did not want to burn bridges since she knew Ye Fan had her best interests at heart.

However, the elders were not in the wrong either because they simply wanted to defend the sect.

In the end, Junie convinced herself that she was the one to be blamed, and naturally, she would have to pay for her mistake.

At the urging of the elders, she eventually knelt before the ancestors' and ancient masters' memorial tablets.

“Get me the rod!” roared the Master of Punishment before somebody hurriedly handed him a rod made with special materials.

Then, he lifted the instrument and was ready to swing it at Junie's back in front of everyone in the hall.

“That's going to hurt,” commented someone in the crowd.

Junie's face immediately turned into a grimace when she heard the Master of Punishment inhale deeply.

Since she spent most of her time studying medicine, Junie did not care much about her cultivation.

Hence, she feared she would feel the full extent of the pain her punisher was going to dish out with the rod.

With gritted teeth and eyes shut tight, she braced herself for the imminent burning sensation.

Thud!

Unexpectedly, the woman did not feel anything at all.

The sound coming from behind sounded like the rod had hit something hard.

“Huh? What's going on?” When Junie turned around to see what had happened, the rod was already on the floor. As for the Master of Punishment, he grunted before staggering a few steps back.

“Ye-Ye Fan?” Junie was shocked, for she never thought Ye Fan would defend her. Not only did the man disarm the Master of Punishment, but he also drove the elder back.

the man had made a mistake, Junie quickly dissuaded him from interfering. “Ye Fan, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me. This is just a formality.
