Seven days later, in a beautiful garden behind the Misty Sect.
"Qing Yun, it's unbelievable how quickly Zhao Yuan, Su Mei, and the others recovered from their injuries!
"And according to reliable sources, they've gathered together and are asking around about us. They're probably trying to track us down."
"Oh? They've recovered already? Looks like they spared no expense healing themselves."
Qing Yun's gaze suddenly turned icy, and she continued in a frigid voice,
"Did they think we would let them off so easily? Now that they're all together, they've saved us the trouble of hunting them down one by one!"
Qing Yun paused briefly, then instructed Yan Ran:
"Yan Ran, send Wang Yong and the others a message right away. Tell them it's time to teach Zhao Yuan, Su Mei, and their friends another lesson!"
"Hehehe, sure thing, Qing Yun!" Yan Ran chuckled, then immediately began sending messages to Wang Yong and the others.

One True Disciple cursed furiously.
"Could they be members of the sect sequence rather than True Disciples?"
A Fox Tribe disciple suddenly suggested in a hushed voice.
"Impossible! Members of the sect sequence are incredibly rare and precious. Why would they go out of their way to target us?!"
Xu Bai immediately retorted, his voice filled with disbelief and anger.
"Senior Brother Xu is right. Besides, there are only so many people in the sect sequence, and we know practically all of them. Twelve disciples we don't recognize couldn't just appear out of nowhere!"
Su Mei chimed in.
