Lu Shuangshuang looked at Hong Zhu and angrily said, "It's everyone's first time participating in the sacrificial ceremony, so it's unavoidable to be nervous. Besides, everyone is now safe and sound. Is there a need to target Ke Er like this?"
As Kerr Lin's childhood companion, Lu Shuangshuang also knew that she was a little timid, but Hong Zhu's words were a little too much!
"What? You're not going to be blamed for doing something wrong? " When Hong Zhu saw that there were still people speaking up for Kerr Lin, he couldn't help but frown and angrily say, "I've already warned everyone that if anyone doesn't have full confidence, they shouldn't blindly participate in this sacrificial ceremony! Besides, what I said just now was not wrong. Even if she doesn't participate in the sacrificial ceremony, the number of spiritual energy women is already enough! "
There was a reason behind Hong Zhu's words. It turned out that a few days ago, when the Hong and Song families had gathered together, they had specially made a precise calculation of the number of people participating in the sacrificial ceremony.
From the results of the calculation, the total number of spiritual energy women from the Immortal Cultivation Faction, Ghost Cultivation Faction, and Awakening Heaven Sect was already enough to open the door to the cultivation world!
Moreover, this number was also a fluctuating range, meaning that even if one or two people were to participate, it wouldn't have much of an impact on the sacrificial ceremony. However, if there were more spiritual energy women, it might be able to better guarantee the success rate of the sacrificial ceremony.
When Hong Zhu came to this conclusion, he had carefully considered it. Among the spiritual energy women present, Lu Shuangshuang and Kerr Lin couldn't be considered as cultivators. Although Kerr Lin's body was full of spiritual energy, if she rashly participated in the sacrificial ceremony, it was very likely that some unpredictable situations would occur, which could easily affect the overall situation.
As for Lan Xinxin, there shouldn't be too much of a problem. Although she was only at the beginning of the path of cultivation, the Wang family of Tian Fang Province was originally an ancient martial arts family, so the younger generation of the family more or less had cultivation experience. Moreover, she had a relatively carefree personality, so there shouldn't be any inexplicable problems.
In any case, at the time of the evaluation, Hong Zhu believed that Lan Xinxin was much more reliable than Kerr Lin, so he had specially looked for the three of them and asked them their opinions.
In the end, the three of them looked at each other and decided to insist on participating in the sacrificial ceremony!
Lu Shuangshuang did not want to stand aside and watch as Xiao Chen participated in the sacrificial ceremony. On the other hand, Kerr Lin thought about how Hong Zhu had helped her parents so much just so that she could participate in the ceremony. It would be too unkind of her to withdraw now!
Lan Xinxin, on the other hand, saw that the other two women were participating, and she had no reason to withdraw, so she readily agreed.
When Hong Zhu saw that the three girls had actually chosen to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, it was not good for him to try to persuade them otherwise. However, there was still a faint trace of worry in his heart. He had not expected that the result would still be as she had predicted!
"Elder Sister, that's enough. Since the sacrificial ceremony has been successful, you should speak less!" Hong Yan also walked over at this moment, pulled Hong Zhu's sleeve, and dissuaded her in a low voice.
Hong Yan, on the other hand, felt quite sympathetic towards Kerr Lin. After all, this was the first time this little lass had learned about the sacrificial ceremony. It was already very good for her to be able to do this much!
"Hmph, I just can't take it anymore. Fortunately, Xiao Chen woke up later and even took us to dual cultivate together. Otherwise, we would have all died here today!" Hong Zhu's anger had not yet subsided and he was still very unhappy when he looked at Kerr Lin.
In fact, Hong Zhu had her own reasons for being angry. She had always been very resistant to the sacrificial ceremony since she was young and had always been planning how to extricate herself from this matter. Later on, due to a series of coincidences, she had finally made up her mind to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, but she had never expected that such a dangerous situation would still occur! How could she not be angry!
"Forget it, Hong Zhu. You can't blame Kerr Lin for this matter. She's already worked very hard. In fact, I was also a little distracted just now. If you want to blame someone, blame me!" Xiao Chen had just finished sensing the condition of his body when he discovered that the girls had actually started arguing. He hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Tch, prioritizing a lover over a friend!" Hong Zhu curled her lips and muttered in a low voice. However, she did not say anything else. In truth, she was just venting the fear and dissatisfaction in her heart. She did not really want to do anything to Kerr Lin.
Xiao Chen chuckled and turned around to hold Kerr Lin's hand. He gently comforted her, "Ke 'er, I was a little anxious just now and my words were a little harsh. Please don't take it to heart. This is the first time that everyone is participating in the sacrificial ceremony, so it's inevitable that something might happen. Hong Zhu was just too worried and confused, please don't take it to heart."
"En …" Kerr Lin's face blushed slightly as she nodded her head. Her heart was moved.
Kerr Lin had originally thought that Xiao Chen would also teach her a lesson since he was the one who had been the most implicated. She did not expect that he would comfort her instead. She could not calm her emotions and did not even notice that her hand was being held by Xiao Chen.
"Alright, since everyone is fine, let's go out! There must be a lot of people waiting for us outside. Don't let them worry too much! " Xiao Chen did not have any other thoughts at this moment. He smiled faintly and let go of Kerr Lin's hand. He then winked at Hong Zhu.
Hong Zhu rolled her eyes at Xiao Chen in annoyance and turned her back to him. Seeing this, Xiao Chen knew that this girl's anger had mostly subsided and that she was just putting on airs. He helplessly shook his head and smiled.
After everyone had put on their clothes, Xiao Chen removed the barriers and concealment spells around them and led everyone out.
As he turned his head to look at the silver-white portal, Xiao Chen frowned slightly as a question circled in his mind.
He could clearly sense that this portal contained an enormous amount of energy. It should have been brought about by the sacrificial ceremony that they had just performed. However, at this moment, that energy was constantly weakening!
Compared to the energy that the portal itself possessed, the weakening energy was almost indiscernible. However, after a long period of time, it would inevitably be exhausted!
For a moment, Xiao Chen could not figure out what the reason was. His initial deduction was that Kerr Lin might have been disconnected during the process, which led to this situation.
However, there was no way to stop the continuous loss of energy now. They could only find all the people who had entered the World of Cultivators as soon as possible so that everyone could enter as soon as possible.
Outside the altar's magical formation, Cheng Mengying and the other girls were looking in this direction with their heads raised. When they saw that Xiao Chen and the others had walked out safely, their hearts were finally at ease.
The terrifying Thunder Tribulation and the tornado just now almost scared them to death. Jin Beibei and Tian Wangchuan were shocked from time to time, while Cheng Mengying, who was standing next to them, was secretly breaking out in a cold sweat.
If the Eldest Miss knew that Kerr Lin was accidentally disconnected during the process of dual cultivation, she would probably be furious like Hong Zhu.
