Li Changsheng shook his head and said, "With all nine sects of our Daoist school gathered together, there's no need for Youying Tower to provoke us. They never do business at a loss."
A group of people analyzed the situation back and forth, but couldn't reach any conclusion.
Master Huoling couldn't wait any longer. After asking Yun Jianyue for information about the cave, she hurriedly left to search for it.
As Zu'an was about to leave, Yun Jianyue secretly transmitted her voice: "Don't worry, she'll be fine."
Zu An was taken aback, realizing that she seemed to be implying something. Just as he was about to ask her, he heard her say loudly, "The competition has been delayed for so many days now. My apprentices have all returned. Can we continue?"
These words caused an uproar. Wan Tongtian stared at her with displeasure: "When your disciple went missing before, we postponed the competition to wait for her return. Now that our Biluo Palace disciple has gone missing, you're clamoring for the competition. What do you mean by this?"
The others also looked at Yun Jianyue, especially the younger disciples, who were the most righteous, and their eyes were filled with anger.
Not to mention them, even Qiu Honglei didn't understand; her master knew perfectly well...
Given the relationship between Pei Mianman and Azu, why would she make such an impolite request at this time?
Zuan frowned, convinced that there must be a reason for Yun Jianyue's behavior, and began to ponder what was going on.
Faced with the questioning of the crowd, Yun Jianyue was not intimidated at all: "We, the various sects of the Daoist sect, have all traveled thousands of miles to Zishan to participate in this competition. We cannot stay here forever, and we have been out for long enough this time."
"After the champion is determined, each disciple will need to enter the Daoist secret realm, and there will be a series of related matters to be done. We have already been delayed long enough. If we wait any longer, how many years will we have to wait?"
"In my opinion, the mysterious person hiding in the shadows is probably trying to sabotage our competition. Even if we find Miss Pei, they will likely cause more trouble, and the final round will never be able to proceed. Once the competition is over, I think the mysterious person in the shadows will stop causing trouble."
At first, everyone was angry when they heard her analysis, but gradually they realized that it made some sense.
After all, that person captured Peng Wuyan but asked for nothing in return, and now he has captured Pei Mianman as well. No matter how you look at it, it seems like he is deliberately trying to cause trouble.
At this moment, Feng Wuchang, the peak master of Guanxin Peak, spoke up: "Elder Peng's words are not without reason, but now that Miss Pei is missing, we can't hold the final competition."
Zu An gave him a strange look. Shouldn't Wang Wuxie be the one to speak in this kind of situation? Speaking of which, Wang Wuxie seemed a bit more taciturn than usual today, and he didn't even secretly look at Yan Xuehen.
Yun Jianyue said proudly, "Everyone witnessed Wu Yan's series of victories against powerful enemies, and Miss Pei from Biluo Palace is probably even more..."
It all comes down to luck. If the two were to actually fight, I'm sure you all have your own opinions on who would win. Since that's the case, why not just let Wu Yan win the championship?
The others exchanged glances, but they had to admit that Peng Wuyan's cultivation level was indeed higher than before.
At this moment, Yan Xuehen suddenly spoke up: "Many times, without personally fighting a match, it is not possible to determine who is stronger or weaker. If we judge based on past performances, then Miss Pei probably wouldn't even be able to advance from the group stage; as for Miss Peng, she wouldn't have been able to overcome strong opponents all the way to the finals."
The sect leaders were initially somewhat interested, but after hearing her words, they hesitated again.
Yun Jianyue gritted her teeth secretly. This Ice Stone Woman is truly my lifelong enemy. Even after I changed my identity, she still wants to oppose me.
Just then, a shrill scream rang out: "This Elder Peng is an imposter! She is Yun Jianyue, the leader of the Demonic Sect, in disguise!"
