Almost under everyone's gaze, Wuyue Qing couldn't help but tremble all over.

How could they still be alive?! How could they possibly still be alive?!

That Thunderbolt was already one of the most powerful weapons the Moonless Household could muster, yet even at such close range and with such terrifying power, it still couldn't kill those two?

Wuyue Qing began to feel fear.

"What's wrong, Miss Wuyue? You seem very reluctant to see us." Sang Ying even managed to smile at her.

But that smile sent a chill down Wuyue Qing's spine.

She was not a coward. Her willingness to sideline her brother and take on the heavy responsibilities of the Moonless Household already demonstrated that she was a resilient and courageous person.

But at this moment, she still felt fear towards Sang Ying.

Could someone so powerful and blessed with extraordinary luck truly be someone they could contend with? Wuyue Qing couldn't help but wonder.

Wuyue Qing pursed her lips, trying to make her pale lips look more rosy and less unsightly. "Just now, Fellow Daoist Sang admitted that you took my Storage Bag?"

Even though her plan had been exposed, Wuyue Qing still forced herself to keep from falling behind. However, it was obvious to everyone that her expression was extremely unpleasant.

Wuyue Wenren immediately stood in front of his third young lady, looking at Sang Ying and the other woman with a wary expression, as if afraid that they might attack them in public if they were displeased.

"So what if we took your Storage Bag? What, do you want us to give it back?" Jiang Zhuoxue's words were full of threat.

Even Liu Duanyue and the others couldn't help but frown when they heard this.

They knew Sang Ying wasn't the type to deliberately provoke others, so they guessed that Wuyue Qing had probably done something first. Liu Duanyue didn't mind Sang Ying's intervention; he was just wondering what Wuyue Qing and the others had done to make her so angry.

Wuyue Qing remained silent for a moment. She knew all too well the impact her actions would have on the Moonless Household if they were to become public.

Sang Ying is not only representing the Yin Mountain Sect at this moment. She made quite a splash on the arena earlier, and now the otherworldly cultivators in the city are paying close attention to her. If it is revealed now that the Moonless Household used secret methods to harm people, it will be a serious problem.

In that case, they would not only lose the competition for violating the rules, but their secrets would also be exposed, and they would be feared by other cultivators from other worlds.

She suddenly regretted her rashness. If she had known this would happen, she should have attacked Sang Ying and the other woman elsewhere, and made sure they were dead before leaving.

"No," Wuyue Qing said, bowing her head. "It was just a joke I played on Fellow Daoist Liu. I gave the Storage Bag and those treasures to Fellow Daoist Sang voluntarily."

"Young Master?"

"Third Miss!"

"Do you know what you're saying, Wuyue Qing?" The last question came from the leader of the five foreign cultivators.

His expression wasn't much better than Wuyue Qing's. He had entered the secret realm this time to win against Sang Ying in the final competition. But he never expected that Wuyue Qing, that fool, would give away what he had painstakingly found to someone else!

The Moonless Household might be polite to her, but the male cultivator wouldn't. He immediately retorted sarcastically, "Are you out of your mind? Giving points to your rival? What, does the Moonless Household think that ten years of control isn't important and are determined to give it up?"

His words were truly harsh, but the rest of the Moonless Household members shared the same sentiment.

They dared not question the young master's decision, but they still felt somewhat uncomfortable.

Wuyue Qing said coldly, glaring fiercely at the male cultivator, "This is my family's business, none of your concern, fellow Daoist. You're quite something, helping my family lose the first round so decisively."

The male cultivator was already holding a grudge about this matter, and her mention of it only made him more eager to lash out on the spot.

Fortunately, his junior brother stopped him several times, and considering that he had received benefits from the Moonless Household, the male cultivator barely managed to suppress his anger.

Sang Ying watched their commotion with a cold eye. Once they had all quieted down, she slowly spoke, "Have you all finished arguing? If so, could you please ask Miss Wuyue for an explanation?"

"What do you mean? Our young master has already given you his own Storage Bag, and we haven't even offered an explanation yet. What more explanation do you want?!" A member of the Moonless Household, who had a somewhat volatile temper, couldn't help but speak up.

Sang Ying listened to his words and continued, "If you want an explanation, of course I can give you one. This Storage Bag and these treasures were all taken from Miss Wuyue."

She admitted it so readily that Wuyue Qing didn't even have a chance to stop her.

Wuyue Qing's face quickly turned ashen. Amidst the surprised and confused questions from the crowd behind her, she looked at Sang Ying: "Do you have to be so ruthless?"

But Jiang Zhuoxue's reply was, "You're already trying to take our lives, how can we possibly give you any face?"

"Hiss~" A group of people gasped.

Wuyue Qing closed her eyes briefly, without saying a word.

"So, everyone, can you give us a proper explanation now? My companion and I were peacefully operating within the area selected by the Yin Mountain Sect when this Miss Wuyue suddenly appeared and ambushed us. After we discovered the ambush, she threw a lightning bolt, intending to eliminate us. Non-Self hadn't been lucky enough to hide in a nearby cave in time, we would probably be dead by now." Sang Ying explained the situation clearly to everyone.

Now, not only the Yin Mountain Sect members, but even the Moonless Household members looked puzzled, seemingly not understanding why their young master was targeting two outside cultivators for no apparent reason.

Wuyue Qing bit her lower lip, refusing to speak. Instead, Wuyue Wenren spoke up for her, saying, "You two have repeatedly offended our Moonless Household. The young master only wanted to teach you a lesson! Besides, aren't you back safe and sound now?"

Even members of the Moonless Household found these words hard to bear.

"If you insist on saying that, then I have no choice but to show you a video." Sang Ying took out the Image-Retaining Stone and released it amidst the extremely unpleasant expressions on Wuyue Qing's faces.

They were incredibly arrogant at the time, believing that Sang Ying and her companion would never have a chance to escape, so they spoke very rudely.

But now that they've been so openly released, the two of them realized just how ugly they had been back then.

Although the scene of the Thunder Ball exploding in the end wasn't recorded, it's enough to prove Sang Ying's words.

Furthermore, several people who had stayed near the cave immediately stepped forward and said that they had heard a loud roar, which they believed was the work of Wuyue Qing and her companion.

"So, how do you plan to compensate us, Miss Wuyue?" Sang Ying's gaze returned to the two of them.
