Chapter 343: A Trouble Which One Cannot Escape From
Hearing the voice which slowly rang out over the open ground, Xiao Yan’s footstep which were about to descend the stairs paused abruptly. With his back facing the square, he lifted his head and inhaled a long breath. The fist within his sleeve was tightly clenched.
On the huge tree, Hai Bodong eyebrows shifted as he frowned intently. His gaze swept toward the middle of the square. At that moment, the expression of Yun Leng and the others appeared a little strange.
“Dammit, has he been recognized by someone?” Hai Bodong softly muttered. The powerful Dou Qi within his body quietly began to circulate.
As Yun Leng’s voice fell, numerous gazes in the open ground were once again thrown toward the skinny back of the person who was about to descend the stairs. Nalan Yanran wiped the traces of blood off the corner of her mouth. She lifted her head and watched Xiao Yan’s back with a pair of complicated eyes. Immediately, she turned around and spoke to Yun Leng and the others, “First Elder, in today’s fight, Yanran was indeed weaker than him.”
“Yanran, this has nothing to do with your fight. You should stand aside for now.” Yun Leng waved his hand, his expression appeared unexpectedly solemn.
Seeing Yun Leng’s expression, Nalan Yanran was momentarily shocked. She hesitated for a moment but in the end could only nod her head, drag her injured body and slowly withdraw to the side. The Misty Cloud Sect disciples that had been in that spot hurriedly stood up and gave their seats to her.
“What is it?” Fa Ma and the others on the large trees were somewhat at a loss when faced with this sudden change in the situation. They exchanged glances and their faces were all filled with doubt.
“Don’t tell me that the Misty Cloud Sect is intent on forcing him to stay behind after losing the fight?” Jia Xing Tian said.
“They should not dare to do such a stupid thing since it would only cause the Misty Cloud Sect to lower its reputation.” Fa Ma shook his head. He suddenly turned his head toward Hai Bodong behind him and asked uncertainly, “Old Hai, is there something wrong with you?”
As Fa Ma was an alchemist, his Spiritual Perception was comparatively stronger than Jia Xing Tian. Therefore, he was very sensitive and could sense the Dou Qi suddenly flowing turbulently within Hai Bodong’s body.
“It’s nothing.” Hai Bodong shook his head and carelessly replied. His gaze, however, was staring intently at Xiao Yan’s back. If his identity were to be exposed today, there would really be some trouble.
