At those words,
everyone instantly turned to look.
They saw Daoist Randeng, who had no popularity in the Chan Sect and was widely disliked.
Though the Chan Sect Immortals said nothing, they surely felt some contempt and disdain in their hearts.
The Interception Sect was powerful and numerous.
This time, it was Yun Zhongzi and the others who had stepped forward. Next time, it would likely be Daoist Duobao and the others.
Speaking of Duobao, Jin Ling, and the other direct disciples, they had all been Quasi-Saints who had Severed the Corpse for many years. Even across the Primordial Wilderness, they were no insignificant figures.
Not to mention that they were direct disciples of Saints.
Their strength went without saying.
Were they sure they could defeat them?
"Oh? You are willing to go?"
Venerable Yuanshi was somewhat surprised and gave Daoist Randeng a few more looks.
After thinking for a moment, he said solemnly, "You are the Vice Sect Leader of the Chan Sect. This time, you may succeed but not fail. Do not disgrace the Chan Sect outside, or I will not spare you!"
"This disciple understands. Please rest assured, Sect Leader!"
How could Daoist Randeng not feel chilled inside?
When it came to the Saint's disciples, they could just go out and take risks, with the Venerable bearing the consequences if anything happened.
But when he had spoken up to take on the matter out of consideration for Venerable Yuanshi's dignity, not only had Venerable Yuanshi failed to praise him, he had even reprimanded him.
"Hmm. Since your Uncle Randeng is willing to descend the mountain and seek out the Human Emperor to assist him, will any of you go with him?"
Venerable Yuanshi looked toward the other disciples.
Expectation showed in his eyes.
Unfortunately, no disciple spoke.
