It’s better to lose the battle than the fight. With the Blood Lotus Seed present, Meng Wan dare not perform too badly.
She strode onto the stage with her head held high. Judging from her aura, she was only slightly inferior to Yun Yao.
After the fight started, Yun Yao did not rush to take action, but looked at Meng Wan opposite him with interest.
There were ripples in her beautiful eyes, and her tone was meaningful.
"It's you, little maid."
Meng Wan frowned unhappily, glared at Yun Yao coldly, and pretended not to know her.
"I don't understand!"
Yun Yao smiled, and there seemed to be stars shining in his eyes.
"You little maid are so mean, you even dare to tease me. But since I like you so much, of course I choose to forgive you."
But when Yun Yao said the word "like", Meng Wan felt a vague feeling and developed a strong liking for Yun Yao in front of her. She wanted to do something for her...
No, why should she risk her life for Yun Yao?
Meng Wan woke up instantly. After realizing what had happened, she quietly activated the Blood Demon Heavenly Evil Technique to resist the opponent's bewitching power, but her face still looked obsessed.
Yun Yao smiled even sweeter, and a piece of silk flew out from her sleeve and wrapped around Meng Wan's neck.
It’s better for the disobedient little maid to die so that she can have less worries.
Meng Wan, who pretended to be obsessed, suddenly became unhappy. She just wanted to lose, but Yun Yao actually wanted her life?
Okay, let’s be frank. She won’t pretend anymore.
When the silk thread was about to wrap around Meng Wan's neck, she suddenly woke up as if from a dream and showed a look of horror.
But at this time, it was too late to dodge, so Meng Wan had to raise her hand and take the initiative to meet the silk thread to avoid being strangled.
Seeing that Meng Wan avoided the attack, Yun Yao, who was wearing a veil, gritted her teeth secretly, and then suddenly injected spiritual energy into the silk thread, intending to tear Meng Wan's arm off.
The white silk thread quietly wrapped around Meng Wan's arm, and then suddenly stretched straight and pulled back fiercely!
The result... was no movement at all.
The thread had clearly wrapped around Meng Wan's arm tightly, but no matter how hard Yun Yao tried, he couldn't pull it away because the other end of the thread was tightly held in Meng Wan's palm.
Yun Yao looked up in surprise, only to see that Meng Wan's face was abnormally red, her teeth were clenched, beads of sweat were oozing from her forehead, and her body was even shaky.
It seemed that she had activated some secret technique to enhance her strength, which enabled her to compete with Pi Lian.
Oh, I have some skills, but not much.
Yun Yao was about to use the technique of bewitching her again, but Meng Wan could no longer hold on.
She cried out in pain, her face pale, and her entire body lost all strength as she flew towards Yun Yao, and then...
He even flew out of the ring and fell to the ground!
The Piaomiao Palace is shrouded in clouds and is a great success.
Yun Yao walked down from the stage, and curled the corners of her mouth hidden under her veil silently.
It’s really not satisfying even if I won, since I couldn’t kill that guy named Meng Wan!
Forget it, she doesn’t really want to kill him anyway, let’s wait and see.
Below the ring, Meng Wan got up from the ground and returned to the Xuanyin Sect's territory in disgrace. He didn't even care about the injuries on his body and immediately apologized to Xue Lianzi.
"Senior, I lost. I have failed to live up to your high expectations. Please punish me."
Blood Lotus Seed comforted in a gentle tone.
"If you lose, you lose. Don't take the temporary victory or defeat to heart. Besides, the Yin-Yang Concentric Technique that Yun Yao practices is far more powerful than ordinary techniques. It's normal that you are no match for her. Go back and heal your wounds first."
"Yes, thank you for your understanding, Senior! But I still want to watch today's fight to the end."
Meng Wan was mainly afraid that when she returned, she would be attacked by the foundation-building cultivators of the Meng family.
It's safer to stay here.
Xue Lianzi didn't know Meng Wan's little thoughts. Seeing that Meng Wan refused to go back, he was too lazy to care about this little matter.
Meng Wan's worries were not groundless. In fact, when she fell off the ring and lost the fight, Meng Qingxue's face was already as dark as it could be.
The most unacceptable situation for her happened. Not only did Meng Wan not die in the ring, she also lost the fight, which deprived her of the opportunity to attack.
As a foundation-building cultivator, it is not difficult to kill a small Qi-refining disciple.
The bad thing is that Meng Wan is from the Xuanyin Sect.
Even though the people of Xuanyin Sect don't treat the low-level disciples of their sect as human beings, if the foundation-building cultivators of other sects dare to attack them, they will definitely ask for a huge sum of money!
Meng Qingxue didn't even have the heart to watch the rest of the fight. She found an excuse and hurriedly left the venue.
After reuniting with Meng Yunxi and Meng Yunfeng, she told them the situation.
Meng Yunfeng placed the teacup heavily on the table, his tone full of resentment.
"She's been dodging me for two days straight. Could that evil girl have noticed something?"
Meng Yunxi's personality is more stable. Hearing this, he did not show any big emotional fluctuations and just spoke calmly.
"Let's start the second plan. Meng Wan is a servant of the Blood Lotus Seed. There are things that the Blood Lotus Seed wants in that spiritual ruin. There is a high possibility that she will be sent into the spiritual ruin."
Meng Yunfeng was a little indignant, "But, for every extra person we send into the Spirit Ruins, we'll have to spend an extra year on maintenance in the future."
"It's okay. We can still afford this price. Spending some time to maintain Lingxu is better than killing Meng Wan directly and facing the wrath of the Blood Lotus Seed and the Xuanyin Sect."
A trace of greed flashed in Meng Yunfeng's eyes, "Don't forget how exquisite Meng Wan's puppetry is. It would be a waste to put such a good puppetry in the hands of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage.
What's more, she is originally from the Meng family, everything about her belongs to the Meng family!"
Meng Yunfeng nodded, "Big Brother is right, and this way, our actions will be more covert, and it will reduce the risk of our puppetry being exposed."
After making the decision, Meng Yunfeng looked at Meng Qingxue.
"Qingxue, Senior Brother Zhu is fully responsible for this Five Sects Conference. You need to take extra care of things for Senior Brother Zhu."
"Don't worry, uncle, I know what's going on."
Meng Qingxue and Zhu Yusheng both worshipped the same Jindan Zhenren, and she was confident that she could get Senior Brother Zhu to agree to this matter.
The disciples who enter Lingxu are responsible for their own life and death, so it will be easier to take action then, without having to be as restricted as now.
Meng Wan didn't know yet that the three foundation-building cultivators of the Meng family gathered together just to get rid of the traitor herself.
After the fourth round of the competition, there were still ten winners left, which were the top ten in this exchange meeting.
Among the top ten, Xuanyin Sect has three people, Shenyi Sect at the bottom has only one person, and the other three sects have two disciples selected.
"The young are truly formidable. Even when I was at the Qi Refining Stage, I might not have been able to defeat those at the same level."
Zhu Yusheng sighed and looked at the ten disciples gently.
"According to convention, the top ten will be eligible to enter the Spiritual Ruins. The final ranking will be based on how much they have gained in the Spiritual Ruins. However..."
