A young disciple whispered, "Perhaps... Fairy Bai really does have some special abilities..."
"Bullshit!" Liu Yingjie interrupted sharply, a glint of malice flashing in his eyes. "Do you think those Nascent Soul stage experts are made of paper? The Blood Fiend Ancestor and Azure Netherworld Master we saw on the road, weren't they all peerless experts who had been famous for hundreds of years?"
He grew increasingly agitated, spittle flying from his mouth: "Not to mention the Crimson Sky Sword Sect and Thunder Sky Pavilion, those other major sects! With our Xuan Tian Sect's meager strength, we wouldn't even be enough to fill their teeth!"

He seemed to already see that when the bad news came, all the disciples who were stronger than him would be dead, and he would become the most favored disciple in the sect.
"Then let's see who dares to say I deserted the battlefield!" he thought to himself. "They're clearly being foolish and courting death!"
Thinking it over, he put on a mournful face and said to the other disciples, feigning sadness, "Let's go back. We should tell the sect leader that I'm afraid none of them will be coming back..."
