The ten direct disciples of the Jade Lake Sacred Sect were all defeated in less than a hundred breaths of time. After witnessing the entire process, the disciples present could be said to have truly witnessed the strength of the Ancient Sacred Sect's Quasi-Holy Son.
Previously, many people might have thought that although the Quasi-Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect was strong, there was a limit to how strong he could be compared to the ten direct disciples. However, after this battle, no one would think so anymore.
This was no longer a matter of whether there was a limit or not. The gap between the two was already a gap in level. To put it bluntly, the direct disciples and the Quasi-Holy Son were no longer on the same level.
The ten direct disciples had joined forces, but they couldn't even force out Xiao Chen's true strength.
After this battle, the disciples' dread and longing for Xiao Chen had deepened by another ten percent. At the same time, they vaguely understood why the Quasi-Holy Son and Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect were like gods to them.
It wasn't just because of their status. Even without their status, the strength of the Quasi-Holy Son and Holy Son was enough to make the world respect them like gods.
After the battle, it was time to chat and drink. However, at this time, Xiao Chen clearly wasn't too interested in the others. His pair of eyes were silently watching Ji You.
After the battle just now, Xiao Chen paid special attention to Ji You. Of course, Xiao Chen's gaze was very obscure and wasn't noticed by Ji You.
The banquet lasted until late at night. Then, the crowd dispersed. Xiao Chen was personally sent back to his residence by the ten direct disciples.
When he returned to his residence, Elder Hei and Elder Master Bai immediately came to greet him. Seeing this, Xiao Chen didn't speak nonsense. He just said to the two elders indifferently, "I still have some matters to attend to. You two elders stay in the courtyard and wait for me."
After saying that, without waiting for Elder Master Bai to reply, Xiao Chen's figure moved and disappeared.
No one would have thought that Xiao Chen, who had just returned to his residence, would suddenly come back. At this time, Zhang Boyun, Feng Lingye, and the rest of the ten direct disciples had also returned to their own residences.
Jade Lake Sacred Sect soon became quiet in the middle of the night. Few disciples could be seen. Under the cover of the dark night, a black shadow flashed by and headed for Ji You's mansion.
No one noticed the presence of this shadow. At the same time, Ji You returned to his residence with an entirely different expression.
If Ji You gave people the impression that he was quiet and elegant before, he now gave people the impression that he was arrogant and cold.
Sitting in the room, Ji You revealed a disdainful sneer and muttered softly, "Ancient Sacred Sect's Prospective Holy Son. Heh, he's simply missing his teeth. A mere initial Dao Gate realm cultivator can become a Prospective Holy Son. It seems like the Ancient Sacred Sect is declining more and more. With this kind of strength, any Prospective Holy Son in the Sacred Yin Sect can easily defeat him."
The Prospective Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect that Ji You mentioned was undoubtedly Xiao Chen. Moreover, she even mentioned the Sacred Yin Sect, which inevitably made people suspicious.
It was impossible for a direct disciple of the Jade Lake Sacred Sect to be related to the Sacred Yin Sect. Unless …
After a round of disdain, Ji You's smile slowly disappeared. Then, his eyes flickered with a cold light as he said, "But since the Prospective Holy Son of the Ancient Sacred Sect has already come to the Jade Lake Sacred Sect, it seems like I still have to inform Senior Sister to speed up the process. Otherwise, it's hard to avoid any accidents."
After saying that, Ji You took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and prepared to use it. But at this moment, the door opened and Ji You abruptly stood up as if facing a great enemy. He looked outside the door with a cold expression and shouted in a deep voice, "Who is it?"
Following Ji You's question, Xiao Chen, who was dressed in white, appeared outside the door and walked into the room unhurriedly with a faint smile on his face. "Junior Sister Ji You, who are you going to send a Sound Transmission Talisman to?"
Ji You stared at the Sound Transmission Talisman in Ji You's hand indifferently. Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, a trace of panic flashed across Ji You's eyes, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.
"Prospective Holy Son, isn't this my private matter? Moreover, I'm afraid that people will misunderstand your visit in the middle of the night. If there's nothing else, I'm going to rest. "
Ji You directly ordered him to leave, but Xiao Chen acted as if he didn't hear it. In fact, Xiao Chen had been hiding in the dark from the beginning. Xiao Chen also heard Ji You's words clearly.
A direct disciple of the Jade Lake Sacred Sect actually mentioned the Sacred Yin Sect. There was only one possibility, and that was that Ji You wasn't the real Ji You, but someone in disguise. And that person's identity was most likely someone from the Sacred Yin Sect.
Xiao Chen was experienced in disguising someone's identity. After all, he had done such a thing before.
Ever since he fought with Ji You and discovered that she was hiding her strength, Xiao Chen had always been suspicious of Ji You. Therefore, after the banquet ended, Xiao Chen first asked everyone to send him back and let them think that he was resting. Then, he secretly followed Ji You all the way here to see what secrets she had.
Xiao Chen really gained a lot from this trip. This Ji You was very likely someone from the Sacred Yin Sect in disguise. This was definitely a big gain.
However, in addition to his excitement, Xiao Chen also vaguely guessed that since someone from the Sacred Yin Sect had already infiltrated the Jade Lake Sacred Sect, then the Jade Lake Sacred Sect's series of actions were probably under the Sacred Yin Sect's nose from beginning to end, including the matter of the Jade Lake Sacred Sect secretly sending people to spy on the Lin Family.
Everything was under pressure from the Sacred Yin Sect. It was no wonder that after such a long time, the Lin Family still hadn't gained anything. It seemed that the Sacred Yin Sect had long been on guard.
Fortunately, Xiao Chen keenly sensed that something was wrong with Ji You today. Otherwise, he would really have been kept in the dark and foolishly waited in the Jade Lake Sacred Sect.
In such a situation, even if Xiao Chen waited until death in the Jade Lake Sacred Sect, he was afraid that he wouldn't gain anything. The final result was very likely that the Sacred Yin Sect had achieved their goal and calmly retreated, while he waited bitterly in the Jade Lake Sacred Sect. As for the Jade Lake Sacred Sect, they were still foolishly monitoring the Lin Family.
Previously, Xiao Chen didn't realize that someone from the Sacred Yin Sect had actually infiltrated the Jade Lake Sacred Sect. But now, since Xiao Chen had guessed all this and even caught Ji You, then the plan naturally had to change.
No longer foolishly waiting for news from the Lin Family, he would first take down Ji You in front of him and then think of a way to pry the information he wanted from him.
With this in mind, Xiao Chen approached Ji You step by step. In the face of Xiao Chen's approach, Ji You also kept retreating and said with a dignified face.
"Prospective Holy Son, what do you mean by this? This is the Jade Lake Sacred Sect. If you want to do something despicable, I'm afraid that you will end up ruining your own reputation. Prospective Holy Son, please think twice before you act. "
