Chapter 135: Not the Eldest Sister, You're Still Thinking About That Matter Now? (6k)_2
Hearing Zhou Qing's words, Immortal Xuan You's eyes were filled with shock, and the other Supreme Elders also opened their eyes, all with looks of disbelief.
"The Cangyan Daoist Palace and the Phecda Sect? How is that possible?" Xin Songming beside him staggered.
Originally, it was thought that it was the Golden Thunder Sect acting in concert with others, but it turned out to be the Cangyan Daoist Palace and the Phecda Sect working together.
"I can prove that Junior Brother Zhou Qing's words are not false!"
Seeing the doubtful expressions on everyone's faces, Yuan Ya quickly spoke up, and then recounted her own experiences to everyone.
Zhou Qing also described the situation at the Taiqing Sect in detail. Although the specifics were not yet clear, the Sect Leader and others would surely come to their rescue.
"So, we were sent here mainly to check the situation of the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect and to inform Sect Leader Xuan You of the rescue efforts. Hold on a little longer, the Taiqing Sect will arrive soon!"
After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he bowed, his gaze tightly locked on Immortal Xuan You, quietly observing.
However, Immortal Xuan You seemed lost in thought, still digesting the previous information.
Finally, after a few breaths, a prompt sound rang in her ears.
The label above Immortal Xuan You's head that originally read [Taiqing Sect Disciple] was replaced in an instant with [Savior Bringing Good News].
Seeing this, Zhou Qing finally felt a great sense of relief.
Thus, he had not let down the Master and the others' efforts.
At this moment, Immortal Xuan You looked at Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu with more admiration mixed with emotion.
Especially Zhou Qing, with no sign of spiritual power around him at this moment, yet even so, he had braved numerous hardships to bring this good news to them.
It also showed the Taiqing Sect's level of concern for them.
"Thank you both!" Immortal Xuan You said weakly.
Zhou Qing also felt pleased, saying, "Sect Leader is too kind, this is our duty."
"Has your Senior Brother returned?" The next moment, Immortal Xuan You suddenly asked.
Zhou Qing's mouth twitched slightly, shaking his head, and said, "Master was worried that the disciples who went outside might encounter ambushes on their way back, so he ordered everyone not to return to the sect for the time being."
Yan Xiaohu, meanwhile, looked at Immortal Xuan You's disappointed expression, thinking to himself: "Big sis, just look at how injured you are, and the outside world is in chaos, with the sect barely holding on, yet you're still thinking about your Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown? Just how desperate are you?"
Supreme Elder Xin Songming, after knowing that the Taiqing Sect was fully aiding them, also let out a long sigh of relief.
But now that the Golden Thunder Sect had lost contact and the Phecda Sect had colluded with the Cangyan Daoist Palace, all they could do now was wait.
It was a tough situation for the Outer Sect disciples.
"Zhou Qing, Yan Xiaohu, take a rest here for now and don't go outside. Yuan Ya, go to the array to heal first."
After arranging everything, Xin Songming and the other Supreme Elders began to discuss matters with solemn expressions.
Sitting to the side, Yan Xiaohu saw that Zhou Qing nodded to him, and he too felt at ease.
But seriously, can you really sense conspiracies and plots?
"We came in too early. I haven't even gotten a few storage bags yet," Yan Xiaohu complained in a voice transmission.
Zhou Qing smiled and shook his head, saying, "It can't be helped. We just happened to run into Senior Sister Yuan Ya first. But you could ask Sect Leader Xuan You for some hard-earned reward."
He didn't really mind; the sooner they could confirm that this wasn't a trap, the more at ease he would be.
...
In the sky, the warships that blotted out the sun were rapidly approaching the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect, and Sikong Yan, standing at the bow of the ship, had a frown on his face, feeling a sense of unease as if he had overlooked something crucial.
At this moment, he opened his palm, staring at a continuously flashing jade talisman in a daze for a moment.
"So that's how it is!"
Upon activation, lines of words began to appear.
Sikong Yan sighed deeply and immediately ordered all warships to return.
"What's wrong?" An elder at the Great Perfection of the Divinity Transformation Realm flew over quickly, full of confusion.
Sikong Yan's expression was calm as he said, "The Golden Thunder Sect's move has come to life. It looks like what follows will be a protracted battle."
The elder was stunned at first, then cursed angrily.
"Trash is still trash. They swore they could hold out for at least ten days. Even if we supported such people, they'd be useless straw bags!"
Sikong Yan laughed lightly, "Precisely because they are straw bags, they are easier to control, aren't they?"
"We're just going back like this?" The elder was still unwilling.
Sikong Yan looked at the faintly discernible outline of the mountain range ahead, his mouth curling into a smile: "This stagnant water has finally started to move. Isn't that wonderful?"
...
"Sect Leader, Supreme Elders, they're retreating! The people outside are retreating!"
At this moment, Steward Xia Ye rushed into the hall, his face red with excitement. He stumbled several times due to his haste but didn't care, shouting loudly.
Everyone immediately stood up, and Xin Songming instantly appeared in front of him.
"Is it the reinforcements?" Xin Songming asked anxiously.
Xia Ye shook his head repeatedly, "I don't know, but the people attacking the Inner Sect barrier have retreated."
"Maybe the other side is trying to lure us out!" A Supreme Elder pondered and spoke.
The others nodded slightly, not ruling out this possibility.
Immortal Xuan You looked at Zhou Qing and Yan Xiaohu.
At this moment, the two were also looking at each other. Yan Xiaohu immediately took out his Identity Token and sent a message to Mo Xingjian.
After a few breaths, Mo Xingjian actually replied.
