With the Misty Sect's cannon fodder, those who wanted to cause trouble gave up on the idea. Not a single living person could be seen within a few miles of where Shi Sheng lived.
When most of the people from the various sects had arrived, the Sect Tournament was about to begin.
Ye Qingqiu and her people arrived on the first day of the Sect Tournament. Before she could even warm her seat, the first batch of disciples came to complain.
"Sect Master, Shang Shu injured us to this extent. You can't just let it go like this. You have to avenge our disciples!"
"That's right, Sect Master. What she did was a slap to the Misty Sect's face. Sect Master, you have to avenge us!"
The indignant disciples surrounded Ye Qingqiu, all of them talking at once.
In conclusion, there was only one sentence: avenge them.
Ye Qingqiu became the Sect Master not long ago. After the previous Sect Master died, the position of Misty Sect's Sect Master had been empty. Those who could fight for it were all lying down. As for the others, even if they had the strength, they couldn't take up the position because they didn't have a proper name.
The Sect Tournament was about to begin so they naturally couldn't be without a Sect Master. Thus, the few Peak Masters who were still alive suddenly joined forces and asked Ye Qingqiu to take up the position.
Ye Qingqiu agreed half-heartedly.
Without the Sect Master's cheat, Ye Qingqiu had suffered quite a bit over the years. His entire person looked gloomy. "I'll take care of this matter for you all. Go and recuperate first. We can't lose the Sect Tournament."
After comforting the disciples and sending them off, Ye Qingqiu slammed her hand on the table. Her face was ferocious as she spat out two words from between her teeth, "Shang Shu!"
'This woman killed my master and destroyed the Misty Sect with a single fire.'
'The suffering I've suffered over the past few years was all because of her. I'll get my revenge one day.'
"Little girl, are you that impatient?" A mocking voice rang out in the room.
Ye Qingqiu was stunned. Her ferocious expression slowly faded away and she returned to her cold goddess self. "What do you want this time?"
"Hehe …" The voice laughed strangely. "I smell something very nice."
"Hmph." A trace of disgust flashed through Ye Qingqiu's eyes. "This is the Sect Tournament. All the powers of the cultivation world are gathered here."
"Little girl, this is not up to you. If … hehe … you don't want to experience the consequences."
"You …" Ye Qingqiu seemed to have thought of something and her face turned pale. Her body trembled slightly and her eyes were filled with hatred. Her hands were clenched into fists and her veins were popping out.
…
The Great Sect Competition was actually for each sect to send people up to spar and test the strength of each sect. To put it bluntly, it was to find out which family had gained more powerful fighters over the years.
Shi Sheng was quite interested in watching these people fight. He and Feng Ci occupied the best viewing area of the audience. Her area was so clean that it looked like it had been swept by a tornado. There was not a single living person in sight.
Feng Ci directly burned all the things that were in the way and brought over a soft couch, snacks, spirit tea, and a parasol.
His posture was even more relaxed than watching a show.
Everyone trembled when they thought about how there was a witch and a great demon watching them while they were sparring.
The Misty Sect's seat was opposite Shi Sheng. Ye Qingqiu's gaze swept over Shi Sheng from time to time. She had heard many rumors about him in the past ten years, but this was the first time she had seen him.
He didn't seem to have changed much in the past ten years, but he had changed his clothes to black. It was a stark contrast to the man beside him, one black and one white.
Who was that man?
"Why can't I see through Ye Qingqiu's cultivation? Can you see through it, Ah Ci?" Shi Sheng tilted his head and looked at Feng Ci.
She remembered that the female lead was only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment during the Sect Tournament. Now that she was at the peak of Foundation Establishment, she couldn't see through Ye Qingqiu's cultivation. Could it be that without the Sect Master's protection, the female lead had grown faster?
Feng Ci only took a glance and retracted his gaze. He said indifferently, "Late stage of Foundation Establishment."
"Eh …" Then why can't I see through it?
"There's a seal on her body. Do you need me to undo it?" He couldn't be bothered to do anything that wasn't presentable.
Shi Sheng saw the hint of disdain in Feng Ci's eyes and couldn't help but look in Ye Qingqiu's direction. Her gaze just so happened to meet Ye Qingqiu's. Ye Qingqiu didn't have time to hide the hatred in her eyes and Shi Sheng saw it.
Shi Sheng pursed his lips and smiled. "Is there something wrong with her body?"
The contempt in Feng Ci's eyes deepened and his voice became more forceful. "Don't look. It'll dirty your eyes."
Shi Sheng was speechless. What the hell was going on?!
Seeing Feng Ci's insistence, Shi Sheng had no choice but to retract his gaze. If she went against him, she wouldn't be the one to suffer. It would definitely be the people around her. She didn't want to be attacked by a group yet.
Nothing unexpected happened during the next few days of the competition. Shi Sheng spent every day either watching the show or staying in her room. She didn't do anything out of line, causing those who were on tenterhooks to heave a sigh of relief.
… …
At night, Shi Sheng yawned as he followed behind Feng Ci on a deserted mountain path. Feng Ci glanced back at him from time to time to make sure he was still following before continuing forward.
"Where are we going?" Shi Sheng caught up with Feng Ci in a few steps and walked side by side with him. "It's a moonless and windy night. Who made you angry that you want to kill someone in the dark?"
"I'm not killing anyone." Feng Ci shook his head innocently. "I'll take you to see something."
"Hm?" See something? Is it a live action romance movie?
# What's in the Host's head #
Feng Ci seemed to be taking her to the Mt. Tong Sect's forbidden area. Don't ask him how he knew. There were two big words "Forbidden Area" at the entrance of the sect. Anyone who wasn't blind could see it.
The entire mountain was a forbidden area. What the hell was inside?
Shi Sheng suddenly wanted to back out. Wasn't it a little inappropriate to sneak into someone's forbidden area in the middle of the night?
The path up the mountain was dark and gloomy. Feng Ci condensed two fireballs and placed them beside Shi Sheng to illuminate her. When they were about to reach the top, Feng Ci put away the fireballs. Suddenly, he reached out and pulled Shi Sheng into his arms. With a leap, he jumped onto a protruding rock above.
Feng Ci carried her up a few steps, then put her down. "You'll be able to see it in a while."
Shi Sheng looked at the dark ground in front of him and patted his cheeks with both hands. Villains are so hard to please!
They waited for nearly an hour. Shi Sheng sat on the rock and was so bored that he started cultivating. When Feng Ci called him, he opened his eyes and saw the faint blue light all over the ground, outlining the outlines of flowers. It was very dreamy and beautiful.
At this moment, she was sitting right in the middle of the blue light.
This scene was like a movie's special effects. In the vast starry sky, the stars shone brightly. It was very stunning. The blue light flickered with the wind as if it was breathing.
"Do you like it?" Feng Ci half-knelt in front of Shi Sheng and raised his head slightly. His dark red eyes were filled with anticipation.
Shi Sheng: "…" Where did he learn this flirting skill?!
Does he feel uncomfortable if he doesn't flirt with me for a day?!
"You don't like it?" Feng Ci lowered his eyes in disappointment. A bright yellow flame jumped out of his hand.
"I like it, I like it." My dear Lord, is it really okay for you to start a fire without saying anything? This is someone else's forbidden area. Don't you know it's a forbidden area?!
