Because Shi Yueyao threw the small landmines in such an accurate direction.
The small landmine just now exploded right above Xi Zhen and the others' heads.
The small landmines were quite powerful; even though the group managed to avoid being injured, they were still covered in dust and dirt from the blast.
"This little sect knows how to infuriate people."
"Did anyone notice the weapons they were carrying? What are those things? They look dark and dull, not sharp, but could they hurt someone?"
"The elders and disciples outside the Taixu Sect are furious. Look at their faces, they're hilarious."
Not only were the elders and disciples outside the Taixu Sect furious.
Xi Zhen and his companions in the secret realm were furious.
They timed their attack perfectly to destroy the Invincible Sect, but in the end, things turned out this way.
Shi Yueyao and Qin Chuan, who threw the small landmines, were unharmed; only the rest of them suffered damage from the explosion.
The small landmine even used up all the self-defense weapons they had, which could only be used once.
With his hands clenched into fists, Xi Zhen cracked his knuckles.
"Sheng Ning, you're really great!"
Sheng Ning never took such words as sarcasm.
She clasped her hands together and bowed slightly, saying, "Fellow Daoist Xi, you flatter me."
Xi Zhen vomited blood.
Junior Sister Yueyao wasn't saying that everyone in the Invincible Sect was an easy target, but that Sheng Ning was a bit difficult to deal with.
Now that he has clashed with Sheng Ning several times, he realizes that she is not only difficult to deal with, but she has also taken shamelessness to the extreme.
Xi Zhen took deep breaths, suppressing the urge to clench his fist and strike, which Sheng Ning noticed.
The latter kindly took out a green porcelain bottle from his mustard seed bag and said, "I noticed that Fellow Daoist Xi is having difficulty breathing. Is something wrong with your body?"
"I have two Mind-Clearing Pills here..."
Before Sheng Ning could finish speaking, Xi Zhen conjured a talisman and charged straight at her, shouting, "Sheng Ning, I'll kill you!!!"
Sheng Ning belatedly realized that she seemed to have given him a Mind-Clearing Pill before.
The pill was dyed with the leaves of the chickweed plant, and Xi Zhen's face turned green immediately after he ate it.
But what she's holding now is a Mind-Clearing Pill refined by her third senior brother. It was specially packaged in a green porcelain bottle to distinguish it from other pills...
Sheng Ning let out an "Ah-oh" sound and was about to look up at Xi Zhen when several tall figures appeared before her.
"Fighting is forbidden within the secret realm. Does the Taixu Sect want to be eliminated now?"
Lu Qingan stood in front of Sheng Ning, his clenched fist aimed directly at Xi Zhen's face.
Yu Ye, standing to the side, couldn't help but jump up and down, "You think you're the only one with talismans? Come on, let's see who has more talismans!"
Guan Yunchuan raised the Gatling gun in his hand, pointing the muzzle directly at Xi Zhen's face. "Back off! If you dare to touch a hair on my junior sister's head, I'll kill you right now."
The combined pressure of the Nascent Soul and Golden Core made it impossible for Xi Zhen to breathe.
Cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and Xi Zhen was only able to catch his breath when Qin Chuan placed a hand on his shoulder.
The scene in the secret realm has now been successfully transformed.
They will be seen again on the competition stage, but the best time to make a move has passed.
Even though they were unwilling, Qin Chuan and his six companions had no choice but to put their plans aside for the time being.
Even the composed Qin Chuan couldn't help but let a ruthless glint flash in his eyes when he saw Su Daiyuan and the others protecting Sheng Ning alone.
Shi Yueyao's eyes were filled with barely concealed jealousy.
"Do you all want to continue?"
Sheng Ning is so bold because he is protected by his senior brothers.
She cast a provocative glance at Shi Yueyao, and when she saw that the latter was staring at her, she immediately smiled.
Shi Yueyao doesn't want such good senior brothers.
Now that she sees her fellow disciples protecting only her, she feels jealous again.
How could someone with such a dull and foolish personality become the female lead, and even single-handedly mess with so many kind-hearted senior brothers?
Sheng Ning really didn't know what the author's mindset was when writing this book and describing this story.
Lowering her eyes to conceal her emotions, Sheng Ning raised her hand and tugged at Lu Qing'an's sleeve. "Since they're not going to make a move, Second Senior Brother, let's go."
They wanted to find the treasure cave as quickly as possible before Shi Yueyao did, and then leave with the inheritance.
The dense forest has now completely turned into a boundless desert.
The blazing sun overhead seemed to burn one's eyes, making it impossible to open them.
Now that their junior sister had spoken, Lu Qing'an and the others decided not to continue the standoff with Qin Chuan and his group.
Because the desert is so vast, there are many small treasure caves here.
None of Lu Qing'an and the others had ever been to the secret realm before; it was Sheng Ning who told them.
Fearing they wouldn't believe him, Sheng Ning casually made up a story he'd heard from other disciples when he was still an outer disciple of the Taixu Sect.
Lu Qing'an and the others believed her words without a doubt and immediately wanted to leave with Sheng Ning.
"Senior Brother!"
The sudden call from behind made Sheng Ning and the other six stop in their tracks and turn around in unison.
Standing behind them, Shi Yueyao's eyes were bloodshot, and her small face was filled with resentment. "Senior Brother, do you really listen to her and not me?"
Shi Yueyao was still unwilling to give up.
Having been a member of the Invincible Sect for so many years, she was already used to Su Daiyuan and the others serving her hand and foot.
Their change in attitude now makes her feel uneasy, and she also feels something slowly leaving her body.
She wanted to do something more, but no matter what she did, everyone in the Invincible Sect only had a dislike for her.
Before Su Daiyuan could answer, Shi Yueyao heard several muffled sounds at her feet.
