He even stared at the incense stick and began to count down, "Twenty, nineteen, eighteen, seventeen..."
Everyone started to get nervous when they heard his countdown. If Qin Qianning really didn't come to participate in the sect competition, then they would have no interest in continuing to watch.
After all, we came to watch the fun, to see what weird methods Qin Qianning would use to lead the Tianyuan Sect to create miracles.
Without her, it would have been just a competition without any surprises.
Lin Jiao from the Jueqing Sect scoffed with dissatisfaction, "At your age, you're counting down whether a young junior can arrive on time. How dare you!"
Lin Jiao bluntly mocked Lu Cangming for not acting like a senior and going to great lengths to target a rising junior.
As soon as this was said, everyone echoed, "The leader of Lingxiao Sect seems to particularly not want Qian Ning to come. At such an old age, he is bullying a girl who is only sixteen years old."
Lin Jiao was not afraid of Lu Cangming. After all, Jueqing Sect and Lingxiao Sect were their biggest competitors.
If she said less sarcastic words, Lingxiaomen would not show mercy. It would be better for her to mock them harshly and help Qian Ning vent her anger.
She smacked her lips twice, "Tsk tsk... So my skin gets thicker as I get older?"
Lu Cangming's face darkened. He was clearly following the rules, but these people had gone crazy because of Qin Qianning!
They didn't take the rules of the competition seriously at all. From the sound of it, it seemed that they were going to change the time of the sect competition because of Qin Qianning's lateness?
Oh, dream on! It's impossible!
He ignored the ridicule of the crowd. Nothing these people said could change the fact that time was almost up.
He continued to count down, "Five, four, three..."
Lin Jiao clenched her fists. Lu Cangming was really shameless now and didn't care about what others said at all.
If Qian Ning couldn't arrive on time, this old man would definitely not let her continue to participate in the competition.
And according to the rules, this is how it should be handled. No matter what they say, they are not right. At most, they can only say that Lu Cangming is gloating.
It was almost the last two seconds.
"I'll count for you. Three, two, one. Your father and his men make a grand appearance!"
An extremely arrogant voice finished the countdown faster than Lu Cangming, and a circle of light appeared in the central square. Gu Wenkang walked in front to lead the way, and Qin Qianning and others followed closely behind.
The group walked out of the aperture at the last second and arrived at the competition site on time!
Qin Qianning looked at Lin Jiao with a smile on her face, "Sister Jiao is right, some people become more shameless as they get older, and they just wish I couldn't participate in the competition.
But I am a very decent person. He is already an old man, so I won’t argue with him.”
Hearing Qin Qianning's voice, everyone turned to look at them. The arrogant words just now did not come from Qin Qianning's mouth.
But the man in the front.
He was someone they had never seen before. He had a cold expression, a slightly furrowed brow, and that aggressive hooked nose gave him the air of someone with a very bad temper.
But...the more difficult a person is to deal with, the more girls will be interested in him.
Many girls murmured quietly, "Is this also a disciple of Tianyuan Sect? How come I have never seen him before?"
"I've become a scumbag! Everyone in the Tianyuan Sect has their own characteristics, and I fall in love with every one I meet."
The reason why Gu Wenkang frowned was because he heard Qin Qianning say that she was a well-educated person and would not bother with that old man Lu Cangming.
In this case, since he just mocked Lu Cangming, doesn't that make him a person without quality?
But...as long as I can help my junior sister vent her anger, it doesn't matter whether I have good qualities or not.
How much is quality worth?
He looked at Lu Cangming with a cold brow, "Count down, weren't you a counting genius just now? Why aren't you counting now?"
Lu Cangming was speechless for a moment. "...The time is up, why should I count it? Since you can arrive on time, let's start the sect competition as soon as possible."
He looked magnanimous and indifferent on the surface, but in fact his fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves.
Qin Qianning is back!
How is this possible?! How could she have come back after entering the Demonic Abyss Forest? Where's He Shiyuan? No way...
Thousands of bad thoughts flashed through his mind, but he denied them one by one because he couldn't believe it.
He couldn't believe that He Shiyuan, a demon, brought Qin Qianning, a spiritual cultivator, into the Demon Abyss Forest and was beaten to death in the demon's territory!
But he secretly comforted himself, it doesn't matter, even if Qin Qianning comes back, she will only be a high-level one-star strength, but Mo Yang's strength has improved unexpectedly.
Since that loser He Shiyuan couldn't deal with her in the Demon Abyss Forest, then let this talented senior disciple deal with her.
It’s a good opportunity to slap Tianyuan Sect in the face in front of so many people!
Gu Wenkang rolled his eyes at Lu Cangming and said, "Don't pretend. I know you're very angry. If you don't have the guts to bite me, just hold it in."
"you..."
Lu Cangming was so angry that his beard trembled and his body couldn't help but shake.
He cursed in his heart, why are the people from Tianyuan Sect more annoying than each other!
Each of them has a sharp tongue, one more powerful than the other. They curse people in a sarcastic tone. They must have learned it from Qin Qianning!
Before Qin Qianning, the Tianyuan Sect was just a bunch of cowards who were easily criticized! They were nowhere near the power they have today.
He glared at Qin Qianning angrily, and Qin Qianning spread her hands helplessly.
She said that she was really innocent, and her master and senior brothers were just low-key before, but they were not people who were easy to bully.
It’s just that her joining has made them a little more high-profile, and they want to take back everything they lost before!
As for the swearing part... the master and senior brothers did inherit her skills, but... the third senior brother himself has a bad temper, so he grasped the technique faster.
She made a face at Lu Cangming, "Lelulu, why are you glaring at me? If you have the guts, why don't you glare at my Third Senior Brother?"
Gu Wenkang gave Lu Cangming ten sharp looks as soon as he heard it, "Old man, don't look at my junior sister with that look, what's wrong with your eyes?
I can help you cure it."
As he spoke, he moved his wrist, as if he was ready to fight Lu Cangming directly.
Qin Qianning echoed, "Cataract! An eye disease that can cause blindness!"
"Yes, I have been practicing medicine for many years, and I can tell at a glance that you have cataracts." Gu Wenkang's ability to insult others continues to improve.
Lu Cangming was so angry that he could only turn his back and not look at the two of them. He turned to the president of the Spiritual Cultivators Guild and said, "President, the competition may begin."
The Spiritual Cultivator Guild President suppressed a laugh, "Ahem, everyone from all the major sects has arrived. I declare... the sect competition is now officially underway!"
