Some people were happy while others were sad!
Everyone had watched so many exciting duels during the day, and at night, they were able to enjoy fine wine and delicacies. Although the days were simple, they felt especially free and fulfilled.
However, there were always some people who were not so happy.
Take Chao Shi and Zhao Zhan for example. Although they had watched the Cheng family's competition during the day, they had no choice but to go back to the Yunfeng Pagoda at night.
Because there were always people guarding the pagoda during the day, it was useless for them to come here.
Also, it would be easy to be discovered if they stayed here every day. There was a high chance that they would be exposed anyway. Therefore, they watched the competition during the day like everyone else.
Seeing so many outstanding disciples of the Cheng family, they were not happy at all.
"The Cheng family is really good at hiding their strength. The young disciples participating in the competition are already so outstanding, but the Cheng family obviously has more than this.
It seems that the Cheng family is a huge threat! "Hiding in the dark, Zhao Zhan was still thinking about the competition during the day.
"Why else would we come here with a mission? But now it seems that we have underestimated the Cheng family's strength.
Although we have made many plans, I feel that none of them are as simple as we thought, "Chao Shi agreed.
"Yes, take our mission for example. Xu Shouwang and the others have been in there for so many days and we don't know what's going on inside.
I suspect that something has happened to them and we are wondering if we should inform Elder Tang. "Looking at the Yunfeng Pagoda not far away, Zhao Zhan was not confident at all.
It had been so many days. Apart from the first two days, there had been no reaction for so many days.
He did not know if it was because Xu Shouwang and the others were using the secret of the Tower of God to cultivate, or if they had run into trouble or even met with an accident.
Moreover, they were guarding outside but could not go in. It was really worrying.
"It has been so many days. Even if they have been cultivating inside, it should be about time, right?" Chao Shi said.
"Who knows? We haven't been cultivating inside! "Zhao Zhan shook his head.
If he knew, perhaps he would know what to do now.
"Didn't that person say that as long as they cultivated inside the tower for a few days, their cultivation would be greatly improved?
So, I think Xu Shouwang and the others have been in there for so many days, so it should be about time.
If they are fine, it should be time for them to come out, "Chao Shi said after thinking for a while.
"So what you're saying is that they really met with misfortune?" Zhao Zhan said with a frown.
Although his relationship with Xu Shouwang wasn't very good, he knew what kind of situation he was in.
If it was any other time, Xu Shouwang's death wouldn't have mattered. He would have one less person to deal with.
But they were in the middle of a mission, and everyone was in the same boat. It had to be said that Xu Shouwang was also very strong. If he didn't die, everyone's strength would be much stronger.
If he were to die, they would lose a powerful helper in an instant. Not only was Xu Shouwang inside, but there was also Yin Tianzong, whose abilities were no weaker than Xu Shouwang's.
Losing these two people not only weakened their strength, but also messed up their plans.
If this mission failed, they might have to send someone else to take the risk.
Therefore, even if he didn't get along with Xu Shouwang, at this time, he still hoped that Xu Shouwang could live in peace, and it would be best if he could complete the mission.
Otherwise, all of them might be in trouble, and it might even cause the mission to fail.
"If they met with misfortune, it might not be that serious, but it could also be that they are trapped inside for some reason.
If we can go in and take a look, we might be able to save them! "Chao Shi said.
"That's absolutely not possible. You should understand the principle of everyone performing their own duties. We don't know if there really is danger in the tower. If we go in like this, not only will it cause the mission to fail, but it might even harm everyone.
We can only continue to wait for this matter, or we can discuss it with Elder Tang. If Elder Tang wants to send someone else in to carry out the mission, that's another matter! "Zhao Zhan immediately refused.
They had already talked about the problem of entering the tower before, but they had already reached a compromise last time. They absolutely couldn't go in.
Now that a few days had passed, he still supported the idea at that time.
No matter what the situation in the tower was like, they had to discuss it with Elder Tang before making a decision.
Because they didn't have this part in the original plan.
The original plan was that if Xu Shouwang and the others failed the mission, the two of them would pass the news to Elder Tang, instead of changing the plan privately. This would definitely mess up all the plans.
"If that's the case, then I suggest that we inform Elder Tang of this matter. I think they are really in trouble! "Chao Shi also knew that if they broke into the tower, it would indeed be very dangerous.
If Elder Tang found out about this, he would definitely be furious even if they managed to save Gu Xijiu.
Because this was too risky.
"If that's the case, then let's wait for tonight. If they don't come out tonight, we will inform Elder Tang tomorrow!" Seeing that Chao Shi also agreed, Zhao Zhan said.
"Okay, it's settled!" Chao Shi nodded.
They had been waiting here for about ten days. It was indeed not a good idea to wait every night without any results.
It didn't matter if Xu Shouwang and the others were safe inside, or if they really encountered danger inside.
In any case, they had to think of a way to confirm their situation outside.
Otherwise, their mission would not be completed even after the end of the Cheng family's tournament.
Their original plan was to complete the mission before the tournament ended and then leave the Cheng family together with the other invited people.
If they failed the mission or did not complete it before the tournament, they would either have to force their way out or face the Cheng family alone.
Under such circumstances, they would only be in more danger.
After all, there were so many people who could act as shields for them.
Moreover, everyone in the Cheng family was basically distracted by the tournament, so it was much easier for them to carry out their plan.
If it was under normal circumstances, the two of them would have been discovered long ago, let alone entering the tower.
Unable to get any news from inside the tower, the people waiting outside were very anxious.
Similarly, for Xu Shouwang and the others inside the tower, their mood was getting worse and worse.
This was because they realized that even if all fifteen people here came to weaken the formation, they still could not do anything.
The fifteen of them sat in a circle around the room, and they all tried to weaken the formation at the same time.
However, they discovered that this array formation was like an ocean. As long as their power came into contact with the array formation, their power would be like a river flowing into the ocean. There was not a single ripple, let alone weakening the array formation.
Pfft!
After trying for a few days, a few of the weaker people finally could not hold on any longer. They spat out blood and fell to the ground.
Pfft!
However, they were now a whole. Everyone's power was gathered together.
These people were not strong enough. When they fell to the ground, it was like a breach in a dam. The others were also injured by the backlash of their power. They all fell to the ground, spitting out blood.
Tao Wensheng sat up with great difficulty, clutched his chest, and said to everyone, "No, this spell formation is too strong. Compared to it, our strength is like a speck of dust in the ocean. We can't weaken it at all!"
"Yes, the Cheng family is indeed the Cheng family. This tower is one of the Cheng family's most important secrets. It seems that the formation in this tower is a powerful formation created by the combined efforts of the Cheng family's experts.
With the power of more than ten of us, it's impossible to weaken it! "Li Yun said in despair.
After persisting for a few days, this was already their limit.
If they continued like this, when the Cheng family came, they wouldn't even need to do anything. They would not have any power to resist.
Most importantly, they had persisted for so long, but they did not feel that the formation had been weakened. It was no different from before.
This situation made them feel hopeless. They could not see any hope at all.
"The Cheng family's power is far beyond the few of us. Now that our last hope has been shattered, it's impossible for us to escape this tower with our own power. Our only choice now is to admit our mistake to the Cheng family!" Qiao Anhao said weakly.
Perhaps they had already expected this outcome. However, they were not willing to admit it until they reached this step.
Even Yin Tianzong and Xu Shouwang could only sigh helplessly in the face of such an outcome.
Now that Qiao Anhao proposed to admit his mistake to the Cheng family, they had no reason to refute.
They had already tried everything they could think of.
Now, they were at their wit's end. However, deep down, they refused to admit their mistake to the Cheng family. This was because their status was fundamentally different from these people.
Of course, the Cheng family might not know their identity.
However, what they were most worried about was that if the Cheng family found out something, even if the others were fine, they would not.
This was why they repeatedly opposed admitting their mistake to the Cheng family. It was better to be safe than sorry.
"Even if we want to admit our mistake to the Cheng family, now is definitely not the time. In order to break the formation, we have expended so much energy. Everyone is already very weak. We should at least wait until we recover! "Xu Shouwang said.
