"The news of the 200 million red jade challenge fee has almost spread throughout the sect."
Mo Jing explained, then said with a slightly regretful look, "Ayun, I've never seen 200 million rubies before. Why do you think Bai Lianye is unwilling to challenge me? I only want half!"
"As long as there's ruby to collect, it'll be fine." Feng Xinglan added with a sigh.
Yun Zheng: "..." I just came back to change clothes, and the news spread so quickly?!
Yu Qiu raised his eyebrows, and a devilish smile appeared on the corner of his lips. "Let's go and see how Zheng Zheng beats people up."
Mu Yin clenched his fists, his handsome face showing a determined fighting spirit. He said in a resounding voice, "We must go! Ah Zheng, help me punch Bai Lianye twice... No, ten times!"
"Ayun, remember to help me chop him twice!" Mo Jing looked at Yun Zheng and said earnestly.
Feng Xinglan's cool and handsome face showed a serious expression as he said concisely, "Two swords."
Yun Zheng: “…”
Finally, after Yun Zheng and the others changed into a new set of sect uniforms, they headed towards the inner sect martial arts field together.
At this moment, in the inner martial arts field
More and more inner disciples came over after hearing the noise, and they quickly found one of their target persons, Yan Kongye, who was wearing the sect uniform of an elite disciple.
Yan Kongye sat on a reclining chair, and many inner disciples surrounded him and the nearest arena.
When Yan Kongye saw this scene, he didn't even need to guess, he knew that the current situation must have been instigated by his five "little followers".
"Junior Brother Yan, how could you be so narrow-minded as to give away 200 million rubies to others!" A disciple said with deep sorrow. Although the 200 million rubies were not his, he felt extremely distressed.
"I heard that Junior Brother Yan turned his love into hatred and wanted to get rid of Junior Sister Yun Zheng in the ring. I also heard that if Junior Brother Yan didn't pay the challenge fee, Junior Sister Yun Zheng would not accept his invitation to the ring..."
"I see."
Junior Brother Yan had sharp ears and eyes, so he naturally took in all the discussions around him.
His eyes were dark and bright, and it was hard to tell what emotion was behind them. All he could see was his fingers tapping rhythmically on the seat.
As he tapped, a small green snake suddenly appeared on the back of his finger, making a slight hissing sound. Its vertical pupils were chilling.
At this time, a loud noise came from outside the inner gate martial arts field:
"The Great Elder is here!"
"Disciple greets the Great Elder!" The inner disciples were surprised to see the newcomer, then they all raised their hands and bowed, performing a respectful salute.
The Great Elder, Duan Huamao, was dressed in a deep purple robe. His hair was completely white, and his face was already wrinkled by the passage of time. From the moment he appeared, he gave off an air of immortality, untainted by the dust of the world.
He is elegant and calm, with a calm temperament that seems to come from someone who has experienced many hardships and difficulties.
When Yan Kongye heard the name of 'Grand Elder', he turned around and happened to meet the Grand Elder's eyes.
He smiled slightly. What was this old man doing here?
He stood up and walked towards the Great Elder Duan Huamao, then stopped and raised his hand to bow. His gesture of bowing was neither respectful nor disrespectful.
"Disciple greets Master."
Yan Kongye raised a rather evil smile at the corner of his mouth. He first glanced at the Great Elder Duan Huamao, and then cast his gaze on the elite disciples behind him.
They are all the direct disciples of the Great Elder, namely Dongfang Ping from the Undead Tribe, Mu Tianshan from the Dwarf Tribe, Ji Xiuhong from the Human Tribe, and... Canglan Jingyu.
Yan Kongye retracted his gaze, looked at the Great Elder, and asked with a smile, "Master, did you bring the brothers and sisters to the martial arts arena to watch your disciple compete?"
Before the Great Elder could say anything, Mu Tianshan teased, "Junior Brother Yan, have you forgotten what day it is today? We were all supposed to follow Master to the Hongmeng Trial Ground today, but you broke the appointment. I wouldn't have known about it until I inquired, but I was shocked. I didn't expect you to spend the exorbitant price of 200 million red jades to give to someone's new junior sister as a challenge fee."
Mu Tianshan continued to tease, "Junior Sister Yan just arrived, and you want to bully her? Junior Brother Yan, isn't this too rude?"
Yan Kongye scoffed lightly, his voice carrying a hint of coldness, "Brother Pastor, you're joking. I've known her for a long time."
Having said that, Yan Kongye deliberately glanced at Canglan Jingyu.
Canglan Jingyu received Yan Kongye's gaze and pursed his lips slightly. There was no big emotion on his slightly sickly handsome face.
I'm afraid no one would have thought that there were at least nine young men from the East Continent of the Yuncang Continent gathered in the Shen Ye Sect of the Holy Ruins.
At this moment, the Great Elder glanced at Yan Kongye, and his mind flashed with what Liang Guanren had said to him, asking him to take better care of his seven disciples.
Especially...the little girl called 'Yun Zheng'.
The Great Elder frowned and said, "Kong Ye, you know when to strike."
This sentence is equivalent to warning Yan Kongye not to kill him.
"Of course I understand." The curve of Yan Kongye's lips deepened slightly. He would not kill Zheng Zheng, but he wanted something from her.
The arrival of the Great Elder lowered the volume of voices in the entire martial arts arena by several degrees, and no one dared to talk recklessly anymore.
The Great Elder and several of his disciples sat down in the audience seats below the arena. Judging from the situation, the Great Elder was going to personally take charge of the arena.
At this moment, Yan Kongye looked at the immortal-looking old man in the audience from afar and sneered in his heart. This old man was meddling in too many other people's business.
More and more inner sect disciples, curious about the details such as 'two hundred million red jades', 'Junior Brother Yan's secret love', 'Junior Brother Yan's love turns to hate', and 'decisive battle', rushed to the inner sect martial arts field.
Several elite disciples also came.
They were Luo Wuqi of the demon tribe, Wo Gaoyang of the giant tribe, and Ji Baiman of the sea tribe. The first two had just been beaten up by Yun Zheng yesterday.
Luo Wuqi and Wo Gaoyang came here, firstly because of the rumors, and secondly because they wanted to see the miserable state of this little girl being abused.
Luo Wuqi's baby face still had slight swelling and bruises, left by Yun Zheng and Elder Liang. He narrowed his eyes slightly, "It would be best if Yan Kongye crippled her!"
"Yan Kongye isn't very strong. After their match, I'm going to personally declare war on Yun Zheng!"
Wo Gaoyang became more and more angry as he thought about it, and said angrily: "I was not careful yesterday and let Yun Zheng take the lead!"
Ji Baiman glanced at Wo Gaoyang after hearing this. She thought to herself, Junior Sister Yun is very strong and has a strong foundation. Her advantage wasn't entirely due to Wo Gaoyang's momentary inattention...
The three of them first bowed respectfully to the Great Elder, said hello, and then sat in the audience seats, waiting to watch the challenge between Junior Brother Yan and Junior Sister Yun.
