In the Jie Hong Cloud Platform, the guardian of the Eastern Extreme Secret Realm expressed views on the Nine Nether Invasion concerning various Major Sects. He then conveyed Yi Dong's determination to investigate the matter thoroughly. Initially, he calmed the agitated emotions of the crowd, effectively brushing aside the incident.
The fallen cultivators would naturally be taken care of by their respective Sects and would not seek trouble with Eastern Peak or any Major Sect. After all, only three members remained from Tianzhu Temple, and the memories of Renran were still vivid.
Bu Luo attempted to lighten the atmosphere, but Yang Sheng and Xiao Zhang ended up seizing all remaining cultivators' Jade Tokens. Aside from the disciples of the two sects and those who had their own Sect's Jade Tokens, no one from Moon River Sect had entered the previous Tournament.
Clearly, Yang Sheng and Xiao Zhang were not concerned about that incident; they were thinking about what happened three years ago.
As soon as Yang Sheng laid eyes on Gu Na, he struck decisively, demanding the Book of Radiant Path. He insisted that Jade Void Sect would protect his future.
Gu Xiao smiled and looked at Gan Yuan, slowly saying, "I told you, Gan Brother, you've mistaken him. As for Gu Bian, he probably doesn't know who that is. If that senior found that person that day, he would surely introduce him to Junior. Who knows, Junior might be his long-lost brother from three years ago."
The other cultivators on the Cloud Platform were somewhat confused. Some were eager to watch the spectacle unfold while others felt Yang Sheng was being overly oppressive, now even bullying those at the academy.
However, when the academy members heard Yang Sheng's words, they were startled, fearing Gu's identity had been exposed. Bu Luo noticed that Yang Sheng had no evidence and felt a slight relief wash over him.
What if he said he didn't?
Yang Sheng's gaze suddenly sharpened as if he wanted to pierce through Gu Xin’s thoughts to see what was truly on his mind. Gasping, Yang Sheng realized he could not read minds. Gu Na maintained a smiling demeanor throughout, revealing no signs of distress or any other emotion.
His junior brother said he didn't deny it; then it must be true. Did he think the Disciples of the Academy would move against him?
Tenglan twisted his neck, ready for a confrontation at any moment.
Indeed, Yang Sheng was unable to produce any direct evidence and was just about to retreat when suddenly, a youthful voice rang out from Cloud Platform.
He recalled that night over a month ago when he had been drinking with Liu Shishu. During their conversation, The Book of Radiant Path had come up, and he had heard it with his own ears.
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. looked at the small Dao Child standing on the Cloud Platform. He recognized that face, but who would have thought that the Dao Child from the Chen Kingdom would appear there? Who could have imagined that he would be identified by his own Dao Child?
In just a few words, Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. felt his blood run cold. The scene that everyone in the academy dreaded was unfolding. Not only was there someone identifying him, but even without evidence, it seemed that the Daoist Sect could not hold back for long. The few words from the Dao Child were like adding fuel to the fire, pushing Yi Dongzi further into danger.
"Whose Dao Child is that? Does my senior brother know him?"
Gu looked at Tenglan, known as Zhongshang., blinked, and took a step back from him. Before Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. could speak, Gan Yuan's voice rang out.
"Stop him! He’s trying to escape!"
As soon as those words were spoken, Gu quickly summoned his energy and shot off into the distance. Bu Luo, Yang Sheng, and others clearly would not let Gu get away so easily; this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was not something anyone wanted to miss.
Yang Sheng and Xiao Zhang chased after Gu one after the other, three streaks of light vanishing from sight in an instant.
Seeing that Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. was about to pursue, Gan Yuan suddenly shouted fiercely. "The Mingyue Yuxu Sect vows to capture Gu! Anyone who dares to obstruct us should be prepared for a fight over the Dao Tradition!"
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang. narrowed his eyes and glanced at Gan Yuan, then turned his gaze toward the Dao Child standing among the people of the Moon River Sect. His heart was filled with confusion.
At this moment, who had time to care about a single Dao Child? Everyone's attention shifted back to Tenglan, known as Zhongshang.. The remnants of the Light Path Classic were present; if there was one, there could be another like Coco. No one could say for sure what would happen next. As for whether the academy would protect the remnants of the Light Path Classic, they themselves had infiltrated; such matters were no longer up for discussion. After all, in that world, strength spoke volumes, and it was clear that the academy's strength was not insignificant.
"Did he know about the matter beforehand?"
Although Gan Yuan did not ask Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, his eyes were fixed on Mu Yu, and the alertness was evident.
"Me?"
Tenglan, known as Zhongshang, toyed with his Azure Wave Vinewood Sword and suddenly asked, but did not answer Gan Yuan's question.
"Indeed."
They would meet again.
Tenglan waved his leg, sheathing his sword, and led the group from the academy towards Shandong. Just as Bu Luo and Tenglan were about to leave, they suddenly spotted a streak of fiery red light shooting towards Gu's direction at the Cheng Dao Sect's seat. A gasp was heard, further intensifying the already tumultuous situation.
