Chapter 115 Two-Way Battle
Chapter 115 Two-Way Battle
On their way to find disciples of the Yunxiao Sect, Song Huai'an and his group encountered disciples of the Tianyan Sect.
Upon hearing that Ye Qianqian was "recruiting soldiers and horses," Lin Jingquan, the second disciple of Tianyan Sect, rushed forward without hesitation: "Junior Sister Ye, our Tianyan Sect will definitely assist you."
Ye Qianqian was somewhat skeptical: "Why don't you ask your senior brother's opinion?"
"Him?" Lin Jingquan glanced at his senior brother Ji Yun and said nonchalantly, "Senior brother has no opinions of his own, and the other disciples all listen to me."
Ye Qianqian glanced at Ji Yun, who was huddled in the crowd. His eyes were timid, and he didn't dare to look at anyone else. His face was pale and unhealthy, and his body was as thin as a bamboo pole.
Looking at Lin Jingquan again, dressed in luxurious clothes and surrounded by more than a dozen disciples, it would be hard to believe that the timid Ji Yun was the senior disciple of the Tianyan Sect if you didn't know.
"Okay, it's a pleasure to work with you, Senior Brother Lin." Ye Qianqian offered a hand with a gentle and innocent smile.
After a moment of stunned silence, Lin Jingquan immediately grabbed Ye Qianqian's hand in excitement, his ears turning bright red.
Seeing this scene, Song Huai'an and Jiang Ci both felt a bit disgusted with Lin Jingquan.
How dare they get so close to their junior sister? They really don't know what's good for them.
Song Huai'an immediately stepped forward, pried Lin Jingquan's hand off, shook his hand, and said with a stiff smile, "Fellow Daoist Lin, it's an honor to meet you. I am Song Huai'an, the senior disciple of Qingyun Sect."
"So it's Senior Brother Song! My apologies for not recognizing you!" Lin Jingquan said, increasing the pressure in his hands.
The two men frowned, but their smiles grew wider, and they increased the pressure on each other's hands.
They held hands until their faces were flushed red before they finally let go.
Ye Qianqian had already left the scene, wearing a smile on her face, but in her heart she cursed the two of them.
[System, these two are so childish, it's really boring.]
【…】
[Sigh! I should probably go find the male lead sooner rather than later; Si Jinchuan is much more challenging.]
About two hours later, Song Huai'an and his group snatched several more tokens from minor sects and finally encountered the Yunxiao Sect.
"Fellow Daoist Si, it's been a long time." Song Huai'an stepped forward and bowed respectfully. "I must thank you for your help in the Void Secret Realm last time."
Si Jinchuan's tone was very calm: "It was nothing, no need for formalities."
Song Huai'an suddenly took out thirty tokens from his storage bag, a faint smile appearing on his lips: "Fellow Daoist Si, let's not beat around the bush. I've come here today to seek cooperation with you to deal with the alliance formed by the other four major sects. This is my small token of appreciation, and I hope you will accept it."
Seeing that Si Jinchuan did not react for a long time, Song Huai'an's eyes turned cold. Although his tone was calm, it hid a kind of venomous cunning: "Fellow Daoist Si can refuse, but you know that there are only two relationships in a competition: either friends or enemies."
As soon as he finished speaking, all the disciples became alert and ready to fight at any moment.
Suddenly at this moment.
Ye Qianqian took the token from Song Huai'an and tried to hand it to Si Jinchuan, but she tripped and fell directly into Si Jinchuan's arms.
Ye Qianqian scrambled away as if electrocuted, the token in her hand clattering to the ground. Tears welled in her eyes, and her face was flushed. "I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Si," she said, "I didn't mean to bump into you. I just wanted to reach a cooperation agreement with the Cloud Soaring Sect. Fellow Daoist Si, can we not become enemies?"
"it is good."
A soft reply shocked everyone present.
Including Ye Qianqian.
Si Jinchuan was absolutely adamant just now, so why has he agreed to Qingyun Sect's request now?
Song Huai'an watched Si Jinchuan warily. He saw that Si Jinchuan, who had been expressionless, actually had a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth and his brows relaxed, as if he was in a good mood.
Ye Qianqian trembled slightly with excitement. She saw that Si Jinchuan's favorability rating had actually reached fifteen. For the past three years, despite Ye Qianqian's meticulous efforts, Si Jinchuan's favorability rating had remained unchanged at zero. Now, it had suddenly increased by fifteen points.
Ye Qianqian immediately hugged Si Jinchuan's arm, her voice soft and filled with obvious joy: "That's great, Brother Si, you're the best."
Si Jinchuan neither avoided nor refuted the question, and his favorability rating actually increased by five points.
Song Huai'an felt a mix of emotions, but he still managed to reach an agreement with a smile, though his hands were already clenched into fists and trembling slightly.
Jiang Ci silently stepped back, and his favorability rating instantly dropped to fifty.
Ye Qianqian was so engrossed in her joy that she didn't notice anything else amiss.
The group began to move together in the secret realm, searching for traces of other sects.
Outside the secret realm.
"I didn't expect that the eight major sects would actually reach a cooperation agreement. I'm afraid the other smaller sects won't have a chance to score any points."
"That doesn't matter. I guess the cooperation between the eight major sects will not last long. In the end, the most interesting part will be when they fall out with each other."
"Yes! I think Qingyun Sect has a better chance of winning!"
"Not necessarily, there are more people at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."
"Then let's take a gamble."
"Okay, I choose Qingyun Sect."
"Of course I'm betting on the Cloud Soaring Sect."
……
The audience below was in an uproar, while the sect leaders on the high platform looked rather displeased.
The cooperation between sects will have a profound impact on the outcome of the upcoming competition, which may lead to more intense competition and betrayal.
If the disciples quarrel too much, it will be difficult for the sect leaders to get along.
In the secret realm.
Almost all the minor sects were wiped out, and Song Huai'an and his group finally faced off against Qin Muyang and his group.
"Fellow Daoist Qin, how have you been?" Song Huai'an's Golden Cloud Sword at his waist roared, ready to be drawn at any moment.
"Fellow Daoist Song, please have mercy." Qin Muyang pleaded, but his folding fan folded up and faced Song Huai'an, while the vines and steel needles behind him trembled slightly.
On Song Huai'an's side.
Song Huai'an, Lin Jingquan, and Si Jinchuan stood at the front, while the disciples behind them tensed up, holding weapons and looking fierce.
On Qin Muyang's side.
Qin Muyang stood at the front, followed by Xiao Shuo and Su Anying, along with their two enormous spirit beasts, each taller than a person.
Zhong Yingxiu had already prepared the attack formation, and even Qiao Qingzi, who had not yet recovered, was holding a bag of poison, ready to fight to the death.
The other disciples who were able to fight all looked fearless; they wanted to avenge their injured fellow disciples.
The battle between the two teams was about to begin, with lightning and wind blades dancing together, and blood and sweat mingling.
The cries of despair from those whose tokens were stolen and the cries of joy from those who received them rose and fell.
Within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the teleportation array outside the secret realm was overcrowded, and the secret realm itself was in a mess.
Scattered on the ground were the tokens of sect disciples, their eyes bloodshot with rage.
Xie Wan Ning sat on the treetop, holding Xiao Bai and Qiu Ling, who had turned into a fox, in her arms, and couldn't help but sigh, "What an intense battle! But it's just a competition between sects, is it really necessary to make it so bloody?"
She is currently just a Foundation Establishment stage healer, so naturally she doesn't need to participate in the battle.
However, it is also related to her current identity. After all, she is not a true disciple of the Lone Peak Sect, so it is best not to have any connection with the eight major sects to avoid causing trouble.
Xie Wanning looked at the message "All is well" sent by Meng Qingyue a stick before the incense stick burned. She couldn't help but feel sleepy and was about to go to sleep.
Unexpectedly, an arrow suddenly flew towards her.
