After Mu Qingluan crushed a jade tablet, everyone stopped where they were and waited for the two elders from Starfall Pavilion to arrive.
Not long after the jade tablet was crushed, a gray-robed elder flew swiftly toward them from the mountains below. However, he looked somewhat disheveled, as though he had just fought someone. Judging by the expression on his face, the outcome of that battle had likely not been favorable to him.
"Elder Hu, what happened? Where is Elder Qi?" Mu Qingluan frowned when she saw the gray-robed elder's condition and promptly asked.
Elder Hu let out a helpless sigh and gave a bitter smile. "Elder Qi and I were originally ordered by the Pavilion Master to come here first and assess the situation. We were rather fortunate and found a place fairly close to the entrance of the ruins, but quite a few powerful experts have gathered in the Bone Mountain Range now..."
"Everyone is looking for a place to settle down. Just as I was leading the Starfall Pavilion disciples to set up camp, we encountered people from the Wind Thunder Pavilion...!"
At those words, Mu Qingluan could not help frowning. Behind her, the expressions of several Starfall Pavilion elders also turned grim. Clearly, they understood what had happened.
"They actually dared to attack?!" Mu Qingluan said angrily.
"There was nothing we could do. Venerable Thunder had come personally with the Wind Thunder Pavilion. Before Elder Qi and I could even speak, we were driven away. Elder Qi was also injured under their combined assault and is currently resting under the care of several disciples."
When he finished, Mu Qingluan looked to Xiao Heng. He was the leader of their group, so only he could make the decision.
"Go see Elder Qi first, then settle the score,"
