Normally speaking, because spirit beasts and cultivators have been together for a long time, they'll develop a special connection between them, so the cultivation world considers spirit beasts to be a cultivator's most loyal companions.
Not to mention, these spirit beasts only just lost their master, yet they still dared to expose the Saint's disciple, a testament to their loyalty and sincerity.
Blue Clouds Pass's disciples ran all over the camp, whispering to each other. But Spirit Beast sect's cultivators silently watched this and wisely kept their mouths shut.
They've already understood that they've become the sacrificial pawns in the fight between the Saint's disciples.
To protect themselves, they can't say anything else at this point.
But the spirit beasts still stayed in the camp — — – Ding Yuan General Wu Xing Wen didn't allow Spirit Beast sect to take them back, saying that they'll be kept for further investigation.
Because of that, the majority of the cultivators couldn't help but believe this.
Things were quietly and slowly fermenting.
Quite a few female cultivators silently took out some pills and spirit food, giving them to the spirit beasts.
They were using this silent gesture to show their stance.
Quite a few cultivators coldly stared at Gu Qing Shan, their eyes carrying silent contempt and disdain.
"Hmph" Ning Yuechan has never been looked down on like this before, so she gritted her teeth, wanting to say something.
"Don't get too worked up, it's not like they're doing this to you" Gu Qing Shan pulled her back.
"They can't do this to you either, it's not fair" Ning Yuechan casually said.
"What fairness?" Gu Qing Shan replied, "the only thing we need to do right now is to wait patiently"
Night.
Several armies have arrived, the decisive battle is about to begin.
Humanity's three Ding Yuan Generals have gathered.
Ding Yuan General Gongsun Zhi, Ding Yuan General Wu Xing Wen, Ding Yuan General Ming Hui.
Wu Xing Wen is Blue Clouds Pass's eldest brother, Ming Hui is Spirit Leaf Temple's head disciple, both of them are strong cultivators, as well as being disciples of Xuanyuan Tianzun and the Great Monk of Sorrow, so of course they're respected by everyone.
Gongsun Zhi, on the other hand, was a truly busy man. With his profound knowledge of arrays, he had participated in many of the major battles that the Human Race had won. As one of the three Ding Yuan Generals, everyone respected him.
For some unknown reason, what happened during the day quickly spread to all the armies. Even Gongsun Zhi and Minghui Monk knew a thing or two about it.
Gongsun Zhi frowned and thought for a moment before shaking his head.
Monk Ming Hui chanted 'Amitabha' and did not say anything else.
Although there were people who died unjustly at the hands of a Sage's disciple, cultivators still had to do what they had to do.
Only in the Spirit Beast Sect, there were some unusual movements.
"How did he provoke the Hundred Flower Sect's Sword Fifteen?" An elder asked in a low voice.
"He was tricked by Wu Xing Wen" the first elder sighed, "the report he showed me didn't have Bai Hua Sect's Gu Qing Shan's name on it"
Seeing everyone's worried expressions, he gritted his teeth: "If we keep our mouths shut right now, we'll be fine. If Bai Hua Saint asks, even if she has to search my soul, I'll have to explain everything clearly to protect the sect"
"But the spirit beasts …"
"Hah, I don't know what's going on either"
"Could it really be …"
…
On the other side, the three Ding Yuan Generals stood on three platforms, giving out orders and arranging personnel.
Wu Xing Wen stood on top of the platform, arranging the final battle.
"Spirit Beast Sect's Wang Zhaowu!"
"Here"
"Responsible for scouting the frontlines!"
"Roger!"
"Flowing Clouds Sect's Zhang Zhen Wei!"
"Here"
"Responsible for attacking the left flank"
"Roger!"
…
"Yao Guang Sect's Leng Zhaowu!"
"Here" Leng Tian Xing answered.
"Responsible for attacking the frontlines"
"Roger!"
"You Ji General Ning Yuechan"
"Here" Ning Yuechan answered.
"Responsible for commanding the frontlines and the flanks"
"Roger!"
While Wu Xing Wen was going on, he suddenly ordered: "The remaining 5 sects, split into two groups, responsible for transporting pills, formation plates and other military supplies"
Everyone looked over, only to see that the remaining sects were Bai Hua Sect, Spirit Flame Palace, Origin Sword Sect, Fu Xiao Mountain and Cloud Gate Sect.
Spirit Flame Palace, Origin Sword Sect, Fu Xiao Mountain and Cloud Gate Sect each had a few dozen people, as soon as they heard the order, they split into two groups of two.
Only Bai Hua Sect's Gu Qing Shan stood there by herself.
"What's going on, there's still one more person, why aren't there any positions?" Wu Xing Wen purposely asked loudly.
"You said to split into two groups, we've already formed them" a cultivator from Spirit Flame Palace shrugged and answered.
"Why didn't you add him?" Wu Xing Wen asked.
"We don't want people who kill their comrades" a cultivator from Origin Sword Sect muttered in a low voice.
Everyone went silent.
All the cultivators coldly stared at Gu Qing Shan, even the groups led by the other two Generals had quite a few cultivators looking over.
Gu Qing Shan just stood there without a single person around her.
"Ahaha, good, that's how it should be"
"This kind of person, pretending to be righteous, using his position to take revenge, who cares about him"
"So what if he's a Saint's disciple? If it weren't for the spirit beasts watching, we would've been fooled by him "
"Just stay away from him, let him fend for himself"
The whispers were getting louder and louder, slowly turning into a storm.
Wu Xing Wen had a faint smile on his face as he watched this scene.
"That's enough" suddenly, a voice came.
A cultivator jumped up from the other side of the platform.
He stood next to Gu Qing Shan, loudly shouting: "What murderer, did you see it with your own eyes?"
"My ass!"
"Ever since we arrived here today, over a dozen disciples of Blue Clouds Pass have been running around, all of them saying bad things about our Bai Hua sect, do you even have the ability to tell?"
"You're framing us alive!"
Qin Xiaolou shouted.
He excitedly paced back and forth, then pointed a finger at Wu Xing Wen: "You're a Ding Yuan General, yet you're letting your fellow sect members spread rumors before the war, shaking the army's morale, let me ask you, what are your intentions?"
"How dare you!" Wu Xing Wen suddenly stood up, "a mere Zhen Wei Chaplain dares to criticize this General!"
"Everyone knows about this, everyone spread it because justice is in the hearts of the people, what does this General have to do with this General!"
"You — — -"
Qin Xiaolou was furious, but then he saw that the other party was wearing a Ding Yuan General armor, spirit energy surging around his body, as well as a row of Blue Clouds Pass cultivators coldly staring at him.
Qin Xiaolou turned around, grabbed Gu Qing Shan's hand and walked away.
"Junior brother, let's go, we're going to General Sun, we don't want to be bullied by him here"
"Stop!" Wu Xing Wen shouted.
"What do you want now? We can't afford to mess with you, so why can't we just leave? "Qin Xiaolou said.
"Gu Qing Shan is a Xiao Qi Chaplain under my command, how could she go with you?" Wu Xing Wen looked up and said.
"What did you say he was?"
"A Xiao Qi Chaplain under my command"
"Hmph, so you know he's a Xiao Qi Chaplain, I've never heard of any Xiao Qi Chaplain being sent to transport supplies — — and you're still saying you're not against my Bai Hua sect!"
Wu Xing Wen coldly laughed, saying: "So what if he's transporting supplies? You're still a Zhen Wei Chaplain, but look at yourself, can you even go to battle? Can you even fight? "
"You, you …" Qin Xiaolou was so angry his body was shaking, unable to say anything.
Gu Qing Shan pulled him in front of her, pressed his shoulder and spoke very seriously: "Senior brother, calm down and listen to me"
Qin Xiao Lou looked at him, his eyes red and swollen.
Gu Qing Shan calmly and slowly spoke: "You and I are both Bai Hua Saint's disciples, the path we walk is the path to heaven, as long as we believe we're not in the wrong, there's no need to care about what other people think"
"Not to mention, as a man walks the world, there's bound to be a bit of wind and rain, a bit of mockery, that's nothing out of the ordinary"
