Chapter 1703

At the mountain gate, Nangong Qing and the others ate comfortably, and as the delicious food entered their stomachs, their physical states were rapidly recovering.

"Great! Isn't this better than eating elixirs?"

"I feel like I can still fight."

"Should we just go out and kill them?"

Someone even suggested just going out to kill them, to which Ye Changqing was instantly speechless.

No, although they won one battle, isn't it a bit arrogant to go out and kill them?

How many people do we have here, and how many people do the demonic cultivators have?

Even if many demonic cultivators died in this battle, the gap in numbers between the two sides was still impossible to bridge.

If they really went out to kill, it's estimated that even with Ye Changqing's spiritual food support, there would be no chance of winning; it would be pure suicide.

"Nonsense."

Just then, several old deacons who were also eating with great joy heard this and immediately shouted.

You want to go out and kill? You won one battle and already don't know how high the sky is?

As for that disciple, after being scolded, he smiled sheepishly.

"Hehe, I'm joking, just joking."

"We still have to rely on the advantage of the array."

The Sacred Ground array definitely cannot be abandoned. Combined with Ye Changqing's spiritual food, only then can they have the certainty of victory.

"By the way, have you contacted the Sacred Master? Didn't we say before that we were going to Tianhong Pass?"

Inadvertently, Shi Yiyi asked casually. They had indeed been in contact with the Sacred Master before.

But in the end, because of Ye Changqing, everyone dismissed this idea. Did they tell the Sacred Master and the others about this?

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other, and a look of confusion appeared in their eyes.

Looking at each other's eyes, everyone quickly reacted and asked weakly.

"You didn't contact them?"

"I didn't. Didn't Senior Brother?"

"I thought Senior Brother contacted them."

"I thought you guys contacted them."

After asking around, no one remembered to contact the Sacred Master and the others. Everyone had been thinking about eating, and then they were busy fighting the demonic cultivators. Who had the energy to pay attention to these things?

For a time, the disciples' gazes couldn't help but fall on the several old deacons.

The old deacons, who were eating comfortably, noticed everyone's gaze and said unhappily.

"Why are you looking at us? Isn't this your own business?"

"I..."

"Then hurry up and contact them now!"

"Oh, oh."

Everyone had forgotten before. Hearing this, Nangong Qing hurriedly took out the image-projection array disk to contact the Yunluo Sacred Master.

But just then, the teleportation array inside the Sacred Ground suddenly activated, and a beam of light shot into the sky.

"Huh???"

Seeing the movement of the teleportation array, everyone was stunned. Did the Sacred Master and the others come to support them?

For a time, their expressions became complex. The situation at Tianhong Pass clearly wasn't very good right now. If the Sacred Master and the others came to support them now, isn't this...

"No way."

"Do you think the Sacred Master will punish us?"

"You can't say it like that. What does it have to do with me? This is your responsibility."

"Nonsense! It was clearly Senior Brother who said he would contact them himself. Who knew he would forget?"

Huh???

Realizing it might be the Sacred Master and the others returning to support, the disciples' first thought was to find someone to blame.

Unanimously, the first person everyone thought of was Senior Brother Nangong Qing.

Since he is the Senior Brother, if something goes wrong, who else would take the blame if not him?

Listening to the words of the fellow disciples, Nangong Qing was completely stunned.

What do you mean it's my business? When did I say I would contact the Sacred Master and the others?

Seeing these bastards busy distancing themselves, Nangong Qing was so angry his teeth itched. A group of bastards!

And they call themselves fellow disciples? When disaster strikes, they fly off in their own directions?

And when it comes to selling him out, these bastards don't even blink.

They didn't even discuss it beforehand; they just started singing in harmony, making it sound like it really happened.

"That's enough! Everyone did this, so everyone should take the blame together."

"What does Senior Brother mean by that? Junior Brother doesn't understand."

"Exactly, Senior Brother. What do you mean everyone did this? When did we cause trouble?"

"Senior Brother, you can eat food randomly, but you can't speak randomly."

"As the Senior Brother, you should have the courage to take responsibility for your mistakes."

"Don't worry, Senior Brother. We will definitely plead for you in front of the Sacred Master."

"I damn..."

Listening to these guys' shameless words without blushing, Nangong Qing was numb.

Do you really have no conscience at all? I am your Senior Brother, your real Senior Brother!

"That's enough! Everyone did this together, so naturally, everyone should take the blame together. As fellow disciples, shouldn't we live and die together?"

"Heh..."

Nangong Qing spoke with great spirit and moving words, but the response he got was the eye-rolling of his fellow disciples.

At a time like this, why are you still talking about living and dying together? Just take the blame yourself.

Better a dead friend than a dead self. Besides, you are the Senior Brother; the Sacred Master won't do anything to you.

At most, you'll get a good beating and spend a few years at the Cliff of Reflection, and then it will be over. There's no danger to your life.

It was fortunate that everyone didn't say these words out loud, otherwise, Nangong Qing would likely have exploded on the spot.

Do you hear that? Is that human language?

Getting a good beating and having to spend a few years at the Cliff of Reflection—you call that nothing? Why don't you go spend a few years at the Cliff of Reflection and let me see?

Nangong Qing wanted to crush these fellow disciples to death. They were full of rebellion!

Before, they talked about deep fellow-disciple affection, but in the blink of an eye, they sold him out without the slightest psychological burden.

And Ye Changqing, who was on the side, seeing this scene, suddenly felt that Nangong Qing and the others had the flavor of the Dao One Sacred Ground.

Isn't this a scene that often appears in the Dao One Sacred Ground?

Just as everyone was talking, suddenly two worried, delicate shouts came.

"Husband, are you okay?"

"Husband, you..."

The people who came were naturally Fairy Baihua and Jue Ying. After coming out of the teleportation array, the two women headed straight here.

Seeing Ye Changqing from afar, they hurriedly called out, but before their voices fell, the two women noticed something wrong.

Weren't they saying the demonic cultivators were attacking? Weren't they saying the situation was critical? What are they doing?

Eating barbecue? The two women were directly stunned. Where are the demonic cultivators? What happened to the bloody battle? What happened to the life-and-death situation?

Why is it completely different from what they imagined?

They didn't see any of their previous guesses, and they rushed over to rescue him, but what they saw was Ye Changqing eating barbecue with a group of Yunluo Sacred Ground disciples.

Does this look like demonic cultivators are attacking? There is absolutely no pressure here at all; it wouldn't be a problem to call this a picnic.

As for Nangong Qing and the others, hearing this "Husband," they were also stunned and looked toward the sound.

When they saw Fairy Baihua and Jue Ying, everyone was stunned. Damn, fairies?

Then they looked at each other. Husband? Who the hell is the husband? Who the hell found such a beautiful Dao companion behind their fellow disciples' backs?
