"Senior Brother?"
"Senior Brother, you've finally found us and joined us?!"
"That's great, Senior Brother! The disciples of Dingtian Sect spoke rudely and provoked Senior Brother Xi. Senior Brother, you must seek justice for Senior Brother Xi!"
The sound from above made everyone look up.
Upon seeing that the person above them was Qin Chuan, some were overjoyed while others were saddened.
When Xi Zhen and the others saw Qin Chuan arrive, they were overjoyed and flew to his side in mid-air, almost giving him a loving hug.
On the other hand, Xie Wenxuan and the others' already grim expressions turned even uglier upon seeing Qin Chuan's appearance.
Fang Chong swallowed the last Spirit-Replenishing Pill, picked up his long sword, and came to Xie Wenxuan's side, protecting him behind him.
"Junior brother, Master said that when you are out and about, you must not be impatient."
This is a lesson to Xie Wenxuan for his impetuous nature, which led to his conflict with Xi Zhen earlier.
If Qin Chuan hadn't appeared, they might have been able to grit their teeth and fight Xi Zhen and his group to the death.
Now that Qin Chuan has arrived, they have no chance of winning whatsoever.
Even so, Fang Chong still fulfilled his responsibility as the senior disciple, protecting his junior brother.
The atmosphere among the disciples of Dingtian Sect was extremely tense.
The atmosphere was worlds apart from that of the Taixu Sect above.
However, compared to Xi Zhen and the others' excitement, Qin Chuan's face remained expressionless.
After listening to what Xi Zhen and the others said, he lowered his head to look at Xie Wenxuan and the others at his feet.
When he looked up again, Xi Zhen was already standing in front of him.
The two brothers were very close; Xi Zhen's cheek was almost touching his.
With a furrowed brow, Qin Chuan immediately took a step back.
Xi Zhen didn't find anything strange about it, but he was a little disappointed that his senior brother had become numb and dull ever since he woke up from the explosion.
He was nothing like his former cold and austere demeanor.
Left with no other choice, he could only use telepathy to tell the person in front of him the news he had just learned.
"Senior Brother, the treasure that opens the Void Swamp is in Xie Wenxuan's hands."
"Didn't we come to the Northern Secret Realm this time for the totem in the Void Swamp? As long as we get what they have, we can complete the task that Master entrusted to us!"
This mission is extremely difficult.
Even the sect leader had considered coming to the Northern Secret Realm.
Unfortunately, the sect leader was unable to leave due to other matters, so only his personal disciples could come.
Xi Zhen and the others were originally worried about how to open the Void Swamp, but now that they have the Dingtian Sect, they can get a free treasure and open the swamp.
Thinking this, Xi Zhen excitedly rubbed his palms together.
"Senior Brother, the faster we act and the sooner we get our hands on the totem, the more likely we are to make the Taixu Sect the savior."
"In the future, the Taixu Sect will not only be the leading sect on the continent, but also the savior of all things in this world. Just listen to that title."
"'Savior'! How majestic!"
Xi Zhen was incredibly excited whenever he thought about becoming the savior.
He beckoned to Qin Chuan with his finger, but when the other remained unmoved, impatience appeared in his eyes. "Senior Brother, did you understand what I said?"
This time, Qin Chuan finally spoke up, "You need to seize the resources from them."
“How can this be called robbery?” Xi Zhen retorted. “This world is a dog-eat-dog world. Look how badly the Dingtian Sect is injured. Even if they get the treasure to open the swamp, they may not have the strength to go in.”
"And we are all strong and healthy. Once we go in and get the totem, we will not forget the merit of Dingtian Sect. In the future, we will make them the second-in-command."
Xi Zhen's words were reasonable and well-founded.
The disciples of Dingtian Sect were indeed seriously injured, and if Fang Chong hadn't been holding on with that last Spirit-Replenishing Pill, he probably would have collapsed by now.
Qin Chuan looked in the direction he was pointing, and after making eye contact with Fang Chong, he looked away.
Xi Zhen saw that his expression remained calm and he showed no intention of making a move, which made Xi Zhen a little anxious.
After all, now is the best time to make a move.
Someone might come over soon and see them attacking the Dingtian Sect. Who knows what the consequences will be?
"If you're not going, then we are," Xi Zhen said through gritted teeth.
But just as he finished speaking, Qin Chuan shook his head, "No."
"Why not?!" Xi Zhen frowned. "We need to find the totem, to bring glory to the Taixu Sect."
"And our junior sister, she has already entered the Integration Stage. Senior Brother, we can defeat the Dingtian Sect."
This was clearly not what Qin Chuan was concerned about.
But after hearing what Xi Zhen said, his gaze still unconsciously fell on Shi Yueyao who was standing to the side.
As before, Shi Yueyao still wore that gentle smile on her face.
He used to think that this smile was the warmest and brightest smile in the world.
Looking at that smile now, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, so cold that he wanted to shiver.
"Senior Brother, what's wrong?"
Seeing the fear on Qin Chuan's face, Shi Yueyao frowned and took a step forward.
Just as she took a step forward, she heard him shout sharply, "Don't come any closer!"
Everyone was taken aback by Qin Chuan's reaction.
Because back in the Taixu Sect, although Qin Chuan was usually cold and aloof, he would still show a gentle expression in his eyes when he was with Shi Yueyao.
But just now...
Xi Zhen's impatience intensified.
He reached out and grasped Shi Yueyao's wrist, saying in a deep voice, "Junior Sister, it's fine if Senior Brother doesn't like us."
"Who did you say had those treasures?"
Not long ago, Shi Yueyao told Xi Zhen that as soon as she arrived in the Northern Secret Realm, she vaguely sensed that something was calling to her.
This feeling was even stronger when I ran into Xie Wenxuan and his group earlier.
Now that Xi Zhen has asked who has the treasure, Shi Yueyao immediately points to Fang Chong and Xie Wenxuan, "They have it."
As Shi Yueyao pointed, Fang Chong and Xie Wenxuan's expressions instantly turned serious.
For safety's sake, they did indeed hide the two pieces of writing implements they found on their own persons.
In this way, even if they encounter danger, the treasures will be hidden on different people, which will avoid some trouble.
Shi Yueyao pointed a finger and turned them upside down, their faces instantly turning ugly.
After hearing Shi Yueyao's words, Xi Zhen and Song Bei immediately summoned their spiritual power and launched an attack specifically on Fang Chong and Xie Wenxuan.
This is the scene that Sheng Ning and his group saw when they returned.
Seeing Xie Wenxuan being kicked to the ground by Xi Zhen and spitting blood, she frowned and rushed forward with her senior brothers.
"Stop it, all of you!"
"Xi Zhen and Song Bei, you have been surrounded by the Invincible Sect."
"Put down your magical weapons now, and we might spare your lives; otherwise..."
