Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The faces of the people in the Imperial Preceptor’s residence, including Yao Qingyi, were pale.
Shen Yaowei watched this scene quietly.
Gang Ye’s words were sharp, but they weren’t wrong.
This change in the Misty Forest this time was indeed very related to the carelessness of the Imperial Preceptor’s residence.
If not for that, they wouldn’t be trapped here.
Yao Qingyi felt embarra.s.sed by the accusation. The strong sense of shame made his expression stiffen.
Looking at Cang Ye, he could clearly feel this youth’s dissatisfaction with him… No, it should be said that this youth was dissatisfied with the entire Imperial Preceptor’s residence.
However, what the young man said was right. Even if he was dissatisfied, he couldn’t say anything to refute it.
Helpless, Yao Qingyi took a deep breath. “The situation in the forest has indeed exceeded our imagination. Currently, our Imperial Preceptor’s residence is investigating with all our might. We can guarantee you that no matter what the reason is, we will do our best to protect your safety.”
“We’ll talk about this after you leave the encirclement of the demon beasts safely.” Cang Ye didn’t even bother to look at Yao Qingyi. As he spoke, he gently retracted his gaze.
Yao Qingyi slowly clenched his fists as he listened to the sighs of the surrounding people.
It wasn’t only Cang Ye who was dissatisfied. When the other partic.i.p.ants present heard Yao Qingyi’s words, they all felt that they were unreliable.
After all, the danger in the forest had greatly increased. They were caught off guard and were all surrounded.
The people from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence, including Yao Qingyi, were the same as them. They were also surrounded and intercepted by the demon beasts along the way. Their situation was as bad as theirs. Where would they get the strength to protect them?
“I think we can temporarily suspend the compet.i.tion?” At this moment, Zhan Yongjun suddenly said.
Shen Yaowei looked at her and saw that she had a proud expression, like a peac.o.c.k standing in the wind.
“Under such circ.u.mstances, we should support each other and leave this place. We should unite and not continue fighting!” Zhan Yongjun said righteously. Her eyes were filled with pa.s.sion as she looked at the people around her. “As the strongest person among the partic.i.p.ants in the test, I’m willing to take the initiative to lead everyone and bring you out of the siege!”
This time, Cang Ye only glanced at Zhan Yongjun indifferently and didn’t speak. It was obvious that he wasn’t interested in what she said.
Shen Yaowei saw Cang Ye’s sharp gaze heading straight for the Imperial Preceptor’s residence from the beginning, and she couldn’t help but feel that his unhappy expression was familiar.
If Cang Ye hadn’t been prepared to join the Imperial Preceptor’s residence like her, she would have even forgotten his ident.i.ty.
Speaking of which, it was strange. Cang Ye clearly wanted to join the Imperial Preceptor’s residence. Why was the hostility all over his body so serious when facing the people from the Imperial Preceptor’s residence?
Just as everyone was wavering because of Zhan Yongjun’s words, the singing that was originally echoing in the air suddenly stopped.
For a moment, everyone’s hearts were in their throats as they looked around uneasily.
From the corner of her eye, she saw Cang Ye and Yao Qingyi taking a step closer to her at the same time. Shen Yaowei still didn’t dare be careless. Her arm trembled as she held the peachwood dagger hidden in her sleeve and waited quietly.
As time pa.s.sed, the air was filled with a suppressed aura.
At this moment, layers of cold fog slowly emerged from the deep pool not far away. As the cold wind blew, the fog crawled into everyone’s clothes along their pants, making them tremble.
Everyone gripped their weapons tightly and didn’t blink. They watched as bubbles appeared on the surface of the deep pool..
