Nangong Yu didn't have a good attitude towards the thief who stole their work. He even wore his disgust on his face, clearly saying, "I'm not happy today, and I don't like you at all!"
Shangguan Xi, who was standing next to him, not only did not stop him, but also looked at him with a strange look.
The only conclusion Ningxi could come up with was that Mei Ming had told her everything.
They entered the Sacred Beast Trial together. Although Ning Xi was strong, it was impossible for her to have come out first even though she came in later than them. The only explanation for this was that she had entered with them.
Of all those who knew about this, only Mei Ming saw her come out.
When Xu Yuehuai arrived, she merely glanced at Ning Xi without much emotional reaction. In her eyes, Ning Xi had simply come up with another way to pass the level, only that the method was somewhat underhanded.
In this empty space, there was nothing at all, and even walking on it felt a certain resistance. Xu Yuehuai was a little puzzled. She wrapped herself in spiritual power to make the path easier to walk on. Seeing this, the others began to follow suit one by one, and what Wang Tieniu did was really useful.
In this way, the resistance they encountered while walking was much less, and it could even be said that their movement speed was no different from their usual speed. Ning Xi followed suit, but the next second, Shangguan Xi said sarcastically, "You've been here for so long before us, how come we haven't seen you accomplish anything? Why do you have to copy us in everything? Isn't this going a bit too far? I think some people shouldn't force themselves to clear the level if they don't have the strength, otherwise they'll just be sending themselves to their deaths when they go to the ruins."
The subject of Shangguan Xi's words was clearly Ning Xi on the other side, but Ning Xi was able to look at them as if nothing had happened, and there was not a ripple of emotion in her eyes, like a mannequin.
Nangong Yu gave Shangguan Xi a thumbs up, praising her actions. Ning Xi's attitude reignited the firecrackers in the two of them.
During this time, Xu Yuehuai only glanced at them briefly. Seeing that they hadn't started fighting or had any physical conflict, she ignored them. In any case, Nangong Yu and Shangguan Xi, with their sharp tongues, were determined not to let her suffer any losses.
Fu Ziyi stood by with his arms crossed, watching the show, while Baili Xiuwen and Xuan Chi joined in, searching for loopholes in the place.
Mei Ming acted completely like a transparent person. He neither watched the show nor helped find loopholes. Instead, he followed Xu Yuehuai closely, keeping an eye on her at all times. If an uninformed person saw this, they would almost think Xu Yuehuai was a criminal.
"Hey, why aren't you saying anything? Did I touch a nerve? So you're too embarrassed to talk about it? Don't be embarrassed, this is so simple and easy, isn't it just a matter of saying a few words? You can do something so shameless, so if you say a few more shameless things, no one will take it to heart." Nangong Yu's attack power was boundless.
Ningxi glanced at them, her expression saying, "Are you talking to me? Are you talking about me?"
Shangguan Xi snorted coldly, her desire to hit someone reaching its peak at this moment. The two of them had never been ignored like this before; this was the first time, and she felt ashamed to even mention it.
Shangguan Xi looked at Nangong Yu beside him. The two exchanged a brief glance, but they both understood what was going on from each other's eyes. After a brief discussion, they stood up and prepared to carry out their operation.
The two flew quickly towards Ning Xi's location, arriving in front of her in no time. They attacked her from both sides, their primary goal being to obtain the jade pendant at her waist. Harming her was secondary; their main objective was to take the jade pendant and eliminate her.
...
Inside the secret realm, they fought fiercely, and outside the secret realm, the conversations of several sect leaders were also filled with the smoke of battle. They said that no one had made a move, but the meaning behind their words was all too clear.
"Are you disciples of Qingtao Valley really that petty? Do you mean that after making such obvious moves and saying all that, you can't let others learn from it? If you don't want others to know, just say it in private. Why say it out loud?" Sect Master Ning was promoted from elder, and his sharp tongue was a characteristic of his. Moreover, he spoke in a sarcastic tone, like an old man gossiping at the village entrance.
This matter had little to do with anyone else, so everyone kept quiet and just looked at Zi Sangyi as she replied, "If we're talking about shamelessness, isn't it you Zhentian Clan who have it best? You stole my disciple's hard work without any reaction, not even a thank you. Do you think that's reasonable?"
Zi Sangyi did not respond to Sect Leader Ning's words. Although he did not support everyone, he felt that it was okay to say a few sarcastic remarks. If others thought there was a problem, then it must be the problem of those who thought there was a problem.
In short, Shangguan Xi and Nangong Yu's reactions were completely normal. If they did nothing inside, Zisangyi felt that she would be speechless with anger if she stayed outside.
Sect Leader Ning was speechless for a moment. After all, they were in the wrong first. He had only said a few words because he saw Shangguan Xi and Nangong Yu make a move. But Zisangyi didn't give them any face and exposed them directly.
"Even so, they shouldn't have made a move, right? Ning Xi was just a little embarrassed to thank them. Besides, they were in a competition. If she thanked her opponent, wouldn't that be handing over her weakness to them? And how can you be sure that Ning Xi won't thank Xu Yuehuai after the competition?" Sect Master Ning and Ning Xi were father and daughter, which is why he was so protective of Ning Xi when he spoke.
Hearing this from the side, Sect Master Yan didn't mind escalating the situation further. "If you ask me, no one can say for sure about this. Let the children handle their own affairs. If Ningxi really gets the waist token after being attacked by Shangguan Xi and Nangong Yu, and then gets eliminated, it just means that's the extent of the disciple's strength. Some things can't be forced."
Sect Leader Yan's words were somewhat biased towards Zi Sangyi's situation, and in reality, he was trying to incite conflict between the two of them.
"If two people beat one person, it's not a very honorable thing to talk about, so how can you say that? Besides, how could they do something like stealing someone else's waist token!"
