“Qu Xiao Xiao, keep your voice down!”
At the same time, Li Hong Wei carefully stared at Xiao Xiao Long’s back. Seeing that the other party did not seem to hear her and did not show any signs of turning around, he heaved a sigh of relief.
“Hmph, what do I have to be afraid of? Zhao Yu is already dead. Xiao Xiao Long can kill me too….”
Although she said that, she did lower her voice.
She did not mean it, but her words affected the people around her.
“If Brother Zhao Yu was still around…”
“Sigh
Li Hong Wei let out a long sigh. When Zhao Yu was around, he was considered part of the upper echelons. Every time there was any action by the entire army, he would be the first to know.
Not to mention the entire army, even the core circle of the Academic Sect was difficult for him to get involved.
Huo Li Juan felt terrible too. She had experienced it the most during the two days when Zhao Yu was away.
In the past, people always thought that she had something to do with Zhao Yu. They were envious of her and would say all kinds of good things about her as if they were free.
No matter where she went, they would favor her.
After Zhao Yu left, there were rumors that Zhao Yu might have died and her glory was gone.
The initial situation where everyone was good to her disappeared in an instant.
If she had never experienced this before, she could still treat it calmly. After reaching the clouds and suddenly landing on the ground, how could she be balanced?
She actually felt quite good when she heard Qu Xiao Xiao’s curse earlier.
After Zhao Yu left, the backbone of their Academic Sect had become Xiao Xiao Long. Even the people around Xiao Xiao Long had become the targets of flattery.
Sun Jing, who had brazenly sought information about Zhao Yu from her a few days ago, had quickly shifted her attention to Xiao Xiao Long upon realizing Zhao Yu hadn’t returned.
Their blatant opportunism disgusted them all.
As if hearing Huo Li Juan’s inner thoughts, Sun Jing suddenly turned her head, her smile carrying a profound meaning as she glanced over.
That woman!
Huo Li Juan instantly recognized the boastfulness in Sun Jing’s eyes, a look she herself had once possessed.
Disgusting!
A narrow-minded person!
After cursing inwardly several times, Huo Li Juan felt an endless void.
“Sigh!”
“How great it would have been if Zhao Yu were still alive!”
Someone’s lament resonated with the few present.
In the core area of the valley, Ji Wu Shuang and a few other ultimate fighters were gathered, discussing their situation.
“Zhao Yu hasn’t returned for two days; it’s highly likely he won’t return…”
“We can imagine, w.a.n.g Feng Valley’s people must be searching everywhere for us…”
“What should we do now? Continue hiding here or venture out?”
“We can’t just venture out now!”
Huo Zhen Wu shook his head, “The Valley has hundreds of ultimate fighters; we are no match for them!”
Their side only had a handful of ultimate fighters. Even if each was highly skilled in martial arts, they couldn’t withstand the sheer number of enemies.
They would be overwhelmed and perish in no time.
“But we can’t just stay here forever!”
“Then send someone to scout!”
“Who should we send?!”
“The enemy surely remembers all our faces…”
Ji Wu Shuang nodded, “So, none of us can go out…”
“How about sending a non-ultimate enhancer?!”
“Right!”
After a brief consideration, they quickly selected someone.
“How about sending Sun Yi Fan?”
“That works, his Lightfoot skill is the best. Although he’s not an ultimate fighter yet, his speed should be comparable to an ultimate fighter. Even if he encounters danger, he has a good chance of escaping…”
The group, decisive as always, soon summoned Sun Yi Fan.
“Understood, I’ll be careful!”
Sun Yi Fan, upon learning what he needed to do, readily agreed. He was tired of staying put and eager for some contact with the outside world.
“Remember, once you’re out, you must disa.s.sociate from us, pretend you’re from the Tiger Howl Gang…”
“Of course, don’t take the Tiger Howl Gang’s name as cover too seriously either. If you noticed the other party ready for a fight, run. Safety first!”
“Got it!”
Sun Yi Fan smiled and swiftly left.
“Kid, were you glaring at me just now?!”
Zhao Yu quickly caught up to Song Tao, running parallel to him.
Song Tao was frustrated by Zhao Yu’s speed.
“Do you have any idea who you’re talking to?”
Even if his a.s.sa.s.sination attempt on He Yun had failed, Song Tao was once a leader in w.a.n.g Feng Valley.
Zhao Yu touched his nose, surprised to encounter someone so clueless.
“Don’t you understand the situation?!”
“Off you go!”
Song Tao barked.
Frustrated by his failure to kill He Yun, he was in no mood for this.
Zhao Yu’s lips twitched, realizing the man before him truly hadn’t grasped the situation.
Before he could speak, Song Tao coldly threatened.
“You’re Xiao Xiao Long, right?!”
“I’ve memorized your name.. You’ve ruined my plans and the next time we meet, I will take your life!”
