Chapter 317 - 314: Enemies on a Narrow Road
"Sect Leader, when you left a few days ago, it coincided with our Qiyun Sect’s annual sect competition," Elder Zhong of the sect was always in charge of organizing these miscellaneous events.
"What happened? Weren’t you in charge? Could something have gone wrong?" Guo Qijing was somewhat puzzled.
"A normal sect competition definitely wouldn’t have any issues. But this year, it coincided with the triennial competition between the inner sect disciples of our sect and the Lishui Sect, and the Lishui Sect sent people over."
"The Lishui Sect? What waves can the Lishui Sect possibly make? The year before last, their elite outer disciples were annihilated by Ye Zhen, and although their inner sect disciples were unharmed, with Meng Xiaoyue in our inner sect disciples, who could turn the tables?"
"Sect Leader, it’s not about the inner sect disciples! Meng Xiaoyue alone defeated the top three inner sect disciples of the Lishui Sect..."
"Isn’t that a good thing?"
"Ah, it is a good thing, Sect Leader, but you should see for yourself, it’s hard to make clear in just a few words." Elder Zhong gave a bitter smile.
As Guo Qijing’s brow furrowed, he flew with a group of elders toward the mountain gate of the Qiyun Sect. Not long after they had flown, an extremely arrogant voice was heard.
"Doesn’t your Qiyun Sect have eight True Disciples? Why have only seven appeared? Where’s the other one, playing the coward, isn’t he! If no one accepts the challenge today, in this battle of the True Disciples, your Qiyun Sect is going to lose! Heh, this bet..."
"Isn’t that Ba Guo’an, a True Disciple of the Lishui Sect? How is he standing on the challenge platform?"
