So, he had to become the male protagonist's "good brother" too if he wants to survive.
"Stop!"
Bai He shouted loudly and Pan Yi who was holding the whip immediately stopped.
He looked at Bai He with some confusion.
"Little Elder Bai, do you need something?"
Although this Pan Yi was still feeling smug at the moment, his ending would be the most miserable of all since of all people he could beat, he actually dared to beat the male protagonist.
Bai He immediately jumped down…
Well, people like to call him little elder since he's only fifteen years old.
Five years ago, the founding ancestor of Lingguang Sect had brought him into the sect and accepted him as a closed door disciple.
A month later, on a certain dark and windy night, his master quietly left Lingguang Sect and never returned.
So, It wasn't because Bai He was short he was called little elder, it's simply because he hadn't finished growing yet.
He was somewhat unaccustomed to his current height of not even one and a half meters.
He cleared his throat and said, "Senior Brother, how about we just let this matter go? I think this affair definitely has nothing to do with Ye Shiyuan. Otherwise, he would have confessed long ago."
Senior Brother Yao Xiangli was Ye Shiyuan's master.
"Little Elder Bai, you don't understand. Ye Shiyuan is hard boned. With just this level of punishment, he won't confess," Pan Yi said quickly.
His carefully laid plan was precisely to pin the crime of theft on Ye Shiyuan so he could be expelled from Lingguang Sect.
Why should Ye Shiyuan always outshine him at every turn?
Once Ye Shiyuan was kicked out from the sect, he would become the most outstanding disciple in the entire Lingguang Sect.
Bai He couldn't help but roll his eyes at Pan Yi, what a classic case of the thief crying thief!
It was clearly he who had secretly slipped the pill into Ye Shiyuan's room, then led people to search it, creating the so called scene of stolen goods found on the spot, followed by severe torture.
"Senior Brother, I did it! I forgot about it a few days ago. I went to the Elixir Hall once and took a pill, then later went to look for Ye Shiyuan. I must have accidentally dropped it there."
That pill was indeed valuable, but with his status as an elder, taking one in his name was not really a big deal.
His back was in excruciating pain, yet Ye Shiyuan's gaze still fell upon the slender figure in front of him.
Bai He had always been obscure and unnoticed throughout the entire Lingguang Sect, so why would he suddenly step forward to speak up for him?
Ye Shiyuan was very clear in his heart who had done this.
He and Bai He had hardly exchanged more than a few words; how could Bai He have gone to his residence for no reason at all?
