Storm Clouds Gather Over Mount Shu! The Sequence Holy Sons Arrive in Person! Afraid to Fight?
The many inner disciple were shocked to see Bai Yifei, the Ninth Sequence Holy Son, also present.
"Holy crap!"
"Today's match is going to be interesting."
"The presence of two Sequence Holy Son is unprecedented!"
"Bai Hao is under the command of Ji Changkong, the Tenth Sequence Holy Son. It's not surprising that Ji Changkong is here to cheer him on."
"I didn't expect even Bai Yifei, the Ninth Sequence Holy Son, to come."
"It seems that the battle between Chen Changqing and Bai Hao is attracting a lot of attention in Mount Shu!"
"And that's only what we can see!"
"That's right. Perhaps even among the Peak Master of the Seven Main Peaks, someone is secretly watching!"
"Unfortunately, with Chen Changqing's strength, there's no way he could defeat Senior Brother Bai Hao!"
"..."
Many inner disciple sighed with emotion.
The presence of the two Sequence Holy Son was deeply awe-inspiring.
It should be noted that there are ten Sequence Holy Son in the Inner Sect of Mount Shu.
Each of these ten Sequence Holy Son is a chosen one of heaven and a strong contender for the future Headmaster Saint Son.
They may have powerful clans supporting them or Peak Master backing them up.
The open and covert struggles between them never ceased.
Of course, the ten Sequence Holy Son are not the only ones participating in the competition for the future Headmaster Saint Son of the sect.
The elite disciples from the Seven Main Peaks are also among them.
However, the Seven Main Peaks of Mount Shu are basically independent and not very united, with each peak wanting to become the strongest.
After all, on the surface, the Sect Master is the one who calls the shots at Mount Shu.
In reality, any matters are discussed jointly by the head of the Mount Shu Sect Master and the Peak Master of the Seven Main Peaks.
Of course, the Sect Master has the most power.
Just as everyone was in shock...
Ji Changkong and Bai Yifei had already landed on the ground.
Upon seeing Ji Changkong, Bai Yifei's lips curled slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
After a slight pause, he took the initiative to walk towards Ji Changkong, who seemed to be the Tenth Sequence Holy Son.
Upon approaching, Bai Yifei smiled slightly and spoke first:
"Junior Brother Ji, I didn't expect you to come in person today."
"I heard that Chen Changqing rejected your offer!"
"It seems... Junior Brother Ji, your prestige within the Mount Shu Inner Sect isn't high enough!"
"These disciples who have only recently joined the Inner Sect don't even take you seriously."
Upon hearing what Bai Yifei said, Ji Changkong remained calm.
"Did Senior Brother Bai come here today just to see me make a fool of myself?"
Ji Changkong asked calmly.
Bai Yifei lightly fanned himself with his folding fan and said with a smile:
No!
"I'm only interested in Chen Changqing."
"I wanted to see what kind of person this is, that they would even refuse your invitation, Junior Brother Ji?"
"Such an outstanding person, if possible, would be worth befriending."
Upon hearing this, Ji Changkong let out a cold snort:
"Snort!"
"Unfortunately, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you today, Senior Brother Bai!"
After saying this, Ji Changkong didn't wait for Bai Yifei to say anything more, and led his men straight out.
Chen Changqing's earlier refusal of the invitation caused Ji Changkong to lose face within the Inner Sect.
After all, he was the Tenth Sequence Holy Son.
Many inner disciple would do anything to join his ranks.
But Chen Changqing refused.
This made Ji Changkong lose face.
That is why Ji Changkong has given Bai Hao a death order: he must defeat Chen Changqing.
As for whether or not he will recruit Chen Changqing into his ranks, that depends on his mood.
Bai Yifei glanced at Ji Changkong's retreating figure, smiled calmly, and muttered to himself:
"Chen Changqing, you'd better live up to expectations this time!"
"If you can defeat Bai Hao, your reputation will soar within the Inner Sect!"
"Of course, what I, the Holy Son, would much rather see is Ji Changkong losing face in the Inner Sect."
After a moment's thought, Bai Yifei composed himself and led his men to the spectator stands.
On the other side, Elder Liu Mu and Wang Yang arrived early.
Seeing the scene was so lively, Liu Mu's expression became very serious.
Of course, what worries Liu Mu the most is that Chen Changqing has not yet returned to Mount Shu.
"What's wrong with Changqing?"
"Why haven't they come back yet? Could something have happened to them outside?"
Thinking of this, Liu Mu's worry deepened.
Earlier, Chen Changqing and Wang Yang accompanied Ran Hua to Green Mountain Town, where her Lineage lived, to help Ran Hua deal with the changes in her family.
After the matter was settled, only Wang Yang and Ran Hua returned.
Chen Changqing then asked Wang Yang to pass on a message to Liu Mu, saying that he wanted to travel around for a while longer.
At first, Liu Mu didn't think much of it.
But as the day of his duel with Bai Hao drew closer, he began to worry.
I originally thought Chen Changqing would return to Mount Shu yesterday.
But to everyone's surprise, Chen Changqing did not appear.
So much so that even on the day of the duel, he did not show up.
Seeing Liu Mu's solemn expression, Wang Yang, standing to the side, glanced at him and, sweating profusely, said:
"Elder, Junior Brother Chen is always punctual."
"What happened this time...?"
Before Wang Yang could finish speaking, Liu Mu interrupted him:
"Don't panic, let's wait a little longer!"
While saying this, Liu Mu was also having doubts in his heart.
Meanwhile, the inner disciple present, seeing that Chen Changqing had not yet appeared, began to discuss among themselves:
What's going on?
"Everyone's here, why hasn't Chen Changqing shown up yet?"
"Could it be that they're scared of the fight and don't dare to come?"
"It should be! After all, the person he's challenging is Senior Brother Bai Hao, who's ranked tenth on the Inner Sect Top 100 Ranking!"
"If that's the case, then all this effort today will have been for nothing."
"A disciple who has only recently joined the Inner Sect dares to challenge Senior Brother Bai Hao? I think he's just talking big!"
"..."
Just as the disciples were discussing, a figure leaped up from the crowd.
When I looked again, he was already standing on the stage of the Battle of the Top Hundred.
This person was none other than Bai Hao, who ranked tenth on the Top 100 Ranking.
At this moment, Bai Hao stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the arena, a smug smile on his lips.
His confident and triumphant demeanor suggested he was certain of victory in today's duel.
Of course, Bai Hao had the confidence to do so.
Over the past three months, with the help of Ji Changkong, the Tenth Sequence Holy Son, his strength has become vastly different from what it once was.
"Hasn't that arrogant bastard Chen Changqing arrived yet?"
"Are you really going to back down?"
Bai Hao muttered to himself, somewhat worried that Chen Changqing wouldn't come. If that happened, he wouldn't have the chance to teach him a lesson in public.
Meanwhile, in the spectator stands, Liu Ruyan was eagerly anticipating the match.
Seeing that Bai Hao had already stepped onto the stage, she felt increasingly uneasy.
What happened?
Why hasn't my junior brother returned yet?
Liu Ruyan muttered to herself, her expression slightly anxious.
Just when everyone thought the competition was going to turn into a farce, something unexpected happened!
"Boom!"
A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from the sky, shaking the very fabric of space and time.
Upon seeing this, everyone looked up.
Upon closer inspection, a crimson Sword Light streaked across the sky and landed directly on the arena.
"Huff huff..."
Amidst the crisscrossing Sword Qi, a figure stood firmly on the arena.
The newcomer was dressed in a green robe, his Sword Qi and swift. On his shoulder sat a small, jet-black dog with a gleaming silver mark on its forehead.
Who else could it be but Chen Changqing and his Little Black Dog Wangcai?
