Chapter 1285: What’s bothering you that you can’t laugh?
Ji Haokong said so, which means that Tianding Sect will return empty-handed this time!
I have to say, this is really surprising, especially since the Tianding Sect Master was so confident before that he even offered a reward to the disciples who picked the reborn flower.
The leader of the Tianding Sect stood up and looked at his disciples for a long time without being able to turn around. He couldn't accept it.
No matter how many years have passed, the dominant position of Tianding Sect in Central Plains has never changed. All of his disciples are talented and have never let him down.
It was just a matter of picking a flower, why did they return empty-handed?
The leader of the Tianding Sect had a pale face and was reluctant to say another word, giving his disciples a step down.
The most advantageous rivals, Tianding Sect and Yunyang Sect, both returned empty-handed, and the most proud sect at the moment is Chiyan Sect.
There was no bad disciple among the Chiyan Sect, especially the three-person team sent out to pick flowers. In addition to the direct disciple Xiao Zhengyang, there was also Duan Xinghe, who defeated Yunyang Sect's direct disciple Rong Xiuzhu in the battle at the Worry-Free Tree.
"There's no need for the Tianding Sect Master to be so angry. The seven major sects are united this time. It doesn't matter whether the Tianding Sect takes it or not. As long as it falls into our hands in the end, that's fine."
The Chiyan Sect Master said this with a smile, then glanced outside again, his tone becoming even more smug.
"The Red Flame Sect's disciples haven't returned yet. They must have been delayed by something."
Sect Leader Tianding was so angry at Sect Leader Chiyan that he took several deep breaths, but in the end he didn't want to lose his composure in front of these people, so he sat back and quickly adjusted his mentality.
"What happened to you? Why couldn't you pick the reborn flower?" asked the leader of Tianding Sect.
"It's my fault that I'm incompetent. We entered an illusion and wasted a lot of time. By the time we broke through the illusion and came out, the regeneration flowers had already been picked, so we hurried back to report." Ji Haokong said.
"Another illusion?" said the Tianding Sect Master with a frown.
"Again? Did the Yun Yang Sect also encounter an illusion?" Ji Haokong asked, "So what we saw in the illusion was not an illusion, but really the Yun Yang Sect members?"
Rong Xiuzhu turned around and looked at Ji Haokong.
"I did see you in the illusion, but you disappeared soon after. I thought you had already broken through it and left."
"Why is there an illusion around the Regeneration Flower?" After Ji Haokong finished speaking, there was silence in the hall.
"Do you also think there is something wrong here?" Rong Xiuzhu said.
Hearing their discussion in an attempt to save his reputation, the leader of the Chiyan Sect laughed.
"The terrain at the location of the Regenerated Flower is complex, and there are a large number of monsters inside. It is not surprising that there are hallucinogenic plants. The seven major sects have blocked this place together, so how could there be any accidents?" said the leader of the Chiyan Sect.
The leader of Tianding Sect also thought so, but he didn't say it out loud. If he said it out loud, it would be a slap in the face of his own disciple, so he kept his face livid and said nothing.
Sect Master Yun Yang, who usually chatters a lot, was unusually silent. It seemed that he had the same idea as himself. He didn't think that there was anything wrong in the process. At most, his disciples were unable to collect it.
The most excited people at this time were, besides Sect Leader Chiyan, Sect Leader Zhanyue.
Unlike other sect leaders who sent out their personal disciples, the one sent by the Zhan Yue Sect was Lu Baiwei.
Although she is not a direct disciple, everyone has seen her diligence over the years. She is no less capable than those direct disciples. More importantly, he has discovered that this young girl of his is very lucky.
The missions she assigns always go smoothly, which makes people believe that lucky bodies really exist in this world.
In addition, the route she took was the most remote and complicated one. This unconventional approach was more likely to yield surprises.
Both of them had smiles on their faces, except Sect Leader Yuanwu, who had kept a low profile for many years and had long since learned to keep his plans secret.
This time he would not come out to show off, but instead watched the two people who thought they had succeeded gloating over themselves. Not only did he wait, he also watched.
"My disciples of the Yuanwu Sect have always been weak and uncompetitive, so I won't count on them."
The leader of Yuanwu Sect said with a fake smile: "But the strength of the disciples of Red Flame Sect and Slashing Moon Sect is obvious to all. They are all talented. It seems that the disciples who can pick the reborn flower this time must be the Red Flame Sect and Slashing Moon Sect."
Hearing that Sect Leader Yuanwu was acting weird again, Sect Leader Zhanyue was the first to frown, but on second thought, he didn't find anything weird about him.
However, Sect Master Chi Yan was very pleased to hear the compliment. His smile became even wider, and he even smiled at Sect Masters Tian Ding and Yun Yang, being extremely arrogant.
Yuan Wuzong looked at them calmly, one frowned and the other looked proud. When the answer was revealed, he would definitely watch their expressions change.
That was definitely the most enjoyable thing about this evening.
Soon, new movement was heard outside, and it was seen that the disciples of the Zhan Yue Sect had returned first.
Seeing them coming back one by one with serious expressions, Sect Leader Yuanwu smiled first as a sign of respect.
"Oh my, the Zhan Yue Sect actually came back first. Their expressions are so gloomy. They probably didn't get the fruit, right? It seems that although everyone in the Zhan Yue Sect is talented, they are not that talented."
The leader of the Yuanwu Sect, who had always been at odds with the Zhan Yue Sect, was the first to make fun of it when he got the chance.
When Sect Leader Zhan Yue saw his disciple coming back, he sighed and shook his head. Although he didn't pick the apple, he wasn't burdened as much as Sect Leader Tian Ding, so he was glad that the disciple came back safely.
However, he did know where the weirdness of Sect Master Yuanwu came from. He was deliberately praising the Zhanyue Sect and waiting for the Zhanyue Sect to suffer a terrible defeat. If his disciples got the title at this time, it would be a slap in the face in a perfect way of retreating to advance!
After realizing this, hearing the ridicule from Sect Master Yuanwu, Sect Master Zhan Yue's face turned ashen. When he was about to retort, he suddenly saw that there was someone behind Sect Master Zhan Yue.
When he saw the person behind him clearly, the frown on his brow suddenly disappeared, and a smile spread across his entire face like sunshine. He was so happy.
"Oh my! I didn't expect that the disciples of Yuanwu Sect would follow our disciples of Zhanyue Sect back. They all look unhappy. I guess they didn't get the fruit either?"
Now it was the turn of the leader of the Zhan Yue Sect to go all out: "You, the leader of the Yuan Wu Sect, were absolutely right. You Yuan Wu Sect disciples are not strong enough and we really can't count on you. Be thankful that you didn't count on us just now. Now you should have gotten what you wanted and not be disappointed at all, right?"
Seeing his own disciple coming back behind Zhan Yue Zong, Sect Master Yuan Wu's heart, which had been suppressed for a long time and full of expectations, instantly broke.
His mocking smile instantly disappeared at that moment, his face turned pale, and his fists under his sleeves made a clattering sound.
After hearing the ridicule from the leader of the Zhan Yue Sect, he became even more furious and felt extremely uncomfortable.
They, Emperor Wuzong of Yuan, had been hiding for so many years, just waiting for this ascension event to prove himself!
The place where the regenerated flowers bloomed was on his territory, so he found a disciple who was familiar with the terrain to pick the flowers. He made all the preparations, but in the end, he failed again!
They failed to turn things around this time, and they have to move forward with the impression that they are all garbage!
I have walked with my head bowed and nodded for so many years, and now I have to walk again, and I have never turned over once. Why can't I turn over!
Sect Leader Yuanwu was so angry that his chest heaved up and down, veins on his forehead popped out, and his whole body was shaking. It was obvious that he didn't look completely indifferent.
Seeing him like this, Sect Leader Zhan Yue smiled even more happily.
"What's wrong, Master Yuanwu? Why can't you laugh right now? Are you worried about something?"
