Chapter 728: Chapter 678: Change in Witch 19’s Mentality
“Actually, I’m to blame. If I had won that round, we wouldn’t be in this predicament.” The Taoist Qingxu expressed regretfully.
“Taoist priest, you shouldn’t feel that way. It’s all my fault. If I were not so incompetent…” Tie Qianshan shook his head, shouldering the responsibility.
Xue Wuheng stopped Tie Qianshan, and said with a bitter smile, “You just substituted for me, Tie brother. If I weren’t so useless and had not been injured earlier, I wouldn’t have caused you to lose face.”
Xue Wuheng felt helpless about the outcome. He never thought that the people of the Sky Wasteland’s Demonic Way would be so vindictive, constantly intensifying the conflict at the arena in the Seventh District, which resulted in his injury and inability to fight.
“No, no, no. That swordsman from the Jian Sect is so strong that even many cultivators at the Spirit Realm Eightfold can’t beat him. Not to mention any of us. The possibility of winning is slim.” Zhao Baiyang explained.
The strength of that swordsman from the Jiǎn Sect was beyond imagination. Even though it might be slightly inferior to Pei Xuanjing’s, they couldn’t challenge him either. So no matter who fought against him, the result would be the same—none of them would win.
No matter what their relationships were in normal times, at this moment, their interests were the same. Only by winning this competition could their interests be guaranteed.
“Taoist friends, don’t be so pessimistic. We still have a chance.” Pei Xuanjing’s voice echoed in their ears.
Indeed, the current situation might not be as advantageous as they originally anticipated. However, a draw in the competition so far meant they weren’t at a disadvantage.
