I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

"..."

This question truly left her speechless.

She took a deep breath, wishing she could yell at them, "You're all my tools... oh no, my wings!"

But obviously, you can't say that.

Ye Qiao cautiously balanced her words: "You might not know this, but actually, we are all good friends in the Changming Sect."

"Good brothers, for life, hand in hand, walking together."

After speaking, Ye Qiao couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up for her perfect answer.

"Ugh." The two looked at each other and felt nauseous at the thought of being good friends who had walked hand in hand with each other.

Forget about being friends, they'd have a hard time even being enemies; they get annoyed just seeing each other.

Ye Qiao hurriedly instructed, "Wait for me outside. The situation within the sect is unclear. All the disciples are currently at Jade Cry Peak." She also didn't know how the elders were doing in the library. If her premonition was correct, the situation wasn't much better.

Unless the other party takes the initiative to stand up, it will not do them any good to break off relations on the spot.

Even if she told anyone, no one would believe her. Ye Qiao never left a good impression on anyone.

In the original story, Ye Qinghan quelled the external turmoil, while Xie Chuxue quelled the internal strife.

Now all we need to do is break the formation and wait for our junior uncle to arrive so he can quell the internal strife.

but……

All of this is on the premise that the mastermind behind the scenes will not be desperate and step forward recklessly. If he does step forward and start killing, then Ye Qiao must hold him off at all costs before Xie Chuxue arrives with her people.

She sighed and couldn't help rolling around on the ground.

She deeply felt that this trial was something Heaven had thrown her here to torment her.

Damn it.

Why is it that Mu Li's trial only requires killing, while her trial requires her to play with someone whose realm is many times higher than hers?

Xue Yu looked at Ye Qiao, who was spread out on the ground like a towel: "..."

She's gone mad again.

"I've never seen anyone like this before."

The inner disciple muttered under his breath, "I really don't know why my martial uncle took her in."

They're either causing trouble or on their way to causing trouble.

And they even took them to Yuming Mountain, which was completely inexplicable.

Yun Que could sense the presence of the group of people not far away, getting closer and closer. Her heart was pounding with panic. The girl was like a frightened fawn, her eyes glistening with tears.

After hanging up with the Seventh Elder, she intended to contact Ming Xuan using the jade slip to seek his help, but she never expected him to appear here. She immediately ran over, her voice soft and gentle: "Senior Brother Ming!"

Mingxuan was puzzled, his eyes filled with doubt: "You look so pale, what happened?"

He was surprised that Yun Que would appear near the Changming Sect.

It seems there are more than just magpies.

When he arrived, he also saw Zhou Xingyun and the others fighting fiercely with a dragon, which he found very interesting. So, what exactly happened?

Mingxuan, dressed in black with a thin rope cinching his waist, looked exceptionally ethereal and elegant. He smiled at her, his eyes blinking slightly.

Upon seeing the young man's late-stage Void Refinement realm, Yun Que's breathing became slightly disordered. "Senior Brother Ming."

"Help."

She pleaded.

This wasn't the first time Mingxuan had been asked for help by her, but it was the first time he'd seen Yun Que so desperately pleading for his assistance. He couldn't help but ask, "How can I help you?"

Yun Que spoke softly, standing behind him. She glanced timidly at Mu Chongxi, whose expression was unreadable, and whispered, "Could you help me stop Mu Chongxi?"

Mingxuan's expression was somewhat subtle. He looked at her, smiled slightly, and asked, "What?"

His expression was so ambiguous that Yun Que tightened her grip on Ming Xuan's wrist, frowning, "What are you laughing at? Aren't you going to help me?"

"I have things to attend to." Mingxuan subtly moved away from her. "Besides, do you have a grudge against Mu Chongxi?"

What is Lan Mu Chongxi doing?

Mu Chongxi was just standing there perfectly fine.

Mu Chongxi, with his sharp ears and eyes, also glanced at her. To be honest, everyone had been a fan of Yun Que, so how could they not know her personality? She was beautiful and, although she occasionally liked to compare herself to others, she wasn't a bad person.

This was the first time Mu Chongxi had been targeted like this by Yun Que. He blinked and chuckled.

Yun Que grabbed Ming Xuan's sleeve. "Will you help me deal with him?"

Mingxuan pondered for a moment, then didn't ask why. Instead, he looked at Mu Chongxi, who had been trying to break the formation when he arrived...

He wasn't stupid; in fact, he astutely grasped the key point: "You want to stop him from breaking the formation? Why?"

Does Changming Sect have a grudge against her?

Unless this formation is broken, even if someone from the outside wants to provide support, they will not be able to enter.

The only sect leader of the Wenjian Sect who had broken through the Void Tribulation stage had already ascended to immortality several years ago, so much so that the cultivation world truly could not find a second person who could easily decipher ancient formations.

Yun Que bit her lower lip sharply, realizing that she had been too hasty and thus exposed the problem. She hurriedly explained, "No, he just tried to kill me."

Yun Que: "Really! Please, please help me. Help me deal with this, okay?"

Her words were incoherent. Mingxuan remained silent for a moment, then moved away from her, his expression turning cold and indifferent: "I'm here to rescue people."

Love is precious, but a junior sister is even more valuable.

Moreover, Changming Sect was his former sect. Mingxuan said he didn't care, but he couldn't possibly be so heartless as to help an outsider like Yun Que to fight against his own sect.

Yun Que's eyes welled up with tears, and she looked a little sad: "You're not going to help me?"

On what grounds?

Mingxuan: "Next time for sure."

He was waiting for Ye Qiao to break the formation together.

Mingxuan also wanted to prove himself, at least to show the elders that he was no worse than the other talisman cultivators.

"Are you doing this for the sect, or for someone else?" Yun Que suddenly stopped crying and stared at him without blinking. "I don't believe you would leave the Demon Realm for the Changming Sect, a sect that has been suppressing you from the beginning."

Without a doubt, Mingxuan was not very willing to face the Changming Sect.

Mingxuan was surprised that she suddenly became so intelligent at this moment. He blinked and said, "It's not for the sect, it's naturally for the people."

He didn't mind telling her, a smile playing on his lips, "My junior sister."

Mu Chongxi: "That's my sister!"

Mingxuan: "Get lost, you're not worthy."

The two had only exchanged a few words when Yun Que couldn't stand it anymore. He could sense Yun Que's closeness to his junior sister in their conversation.

Yun Que was aware that Changming Sect had a new disciple, but a new disciple was nothing compared to her.

"She's not as talented as me, nor have we known each other for as long. Why are you helping her?" Yun Que bit her lower lip hard, her voice thin and strained, as if forced out of her throat.

She's clearly the one they like, isn't she?

Mingxuan looked at her. "It's different."

If it were just a random new junior sister, he certainly wouldn't help her.

But Mingxuan is someone who really likes to imagine things.

He could practically picture it in his mind: if Ye Qiao could save him in another world, then she must be a very gentle and tender girl, and he was determined to protect her.
