Chapter 10

It was an unplanned development.

Gu Yiping had never thought about this. After all, she had only said it for fun. Who would have thought that it would alarm the higher-ups?

“Let’s find a random reason to fool them first.”

‘What comes next is the main turning point. It wasn’t easy for me to get everything back on track. I can’t afford to make any more mistakes,’ Gu Yiping thought to herself and made the necessary arrangements.

“Actually…”

“Sect Master, it’s time.” Shen Yun’s attendant suddenly reminded him.

Actually, Shen Yun was already in seclusion at this time. This was also why Gu Yiping was surprised that Shen Yun would suddenly appear. After all, he should not have appeared here at this time.

“Yes.” Shen Yun nodded slightly in response. Then, his gaze landed on his disciple. “I still trust your judgment. I look forward to his future growth.”

Gu Yiping also took the opportunity to guarantee her claim, “Don’t worry, Master. His growth will definitely shock you.”

‘It would be strange if the future Great Demon King was not shocking,’ Gu Yiping thought to herself.

Shen Yun stepped on a crane and flew into the distance with great anticipation in his heart.

Gu Yiping heaved a sigh of relief and turned around.

Seeing that the eyes of Elder Bai Mei and the others were focused on the trial, she silently bowed and took a step back. She took out her own Profound Disk to monitor.

According to her understanding of Jiang Hong, he would definitely try to destroy the Profound Disk in his hands before coming into contact with the demons.

But it didn’t matter. The talisman formations on his disk were very well-hidden. With her many years of understanding of him, he definitely wouldn’t be able to discover them.

“Jiang Hong, hurry up and betray. The faster you betray, the sooner I will be able to see the funny look on your face when you are wanted by the Dao Alliance all over the world…” Gu Yiping’s face was filled with excitement as her chest rose and fell rapidly.

Suddenly, as Jiang Hong’s position on the Profound Disk changed, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

‘It’s coming.’

…

In the center of the square, in front of the huge Sub-Profound Disk.

The elders, led by Sect Master Shen Yun, gathered here.

The green dots on the Profound Disk represented the 23 participating disciples excluding Jiang Hong.

The sect could use this large Sub-Profound Disk to monitor the location of the disciples at all times to ensure that nothing went wrong during the trial.

“Most of the teams are starting to interact with the bandits.”

“I heard that the leader of these bandits is a body cultivator at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm. I wonder which disciple will win.”

“It should be Xingjian. After all, his cultivation realm is the highest among the participating disciples.”

“That’s hard to say. After all, cultivation isn’t everything. Perhaps there will be unexpected results.”

Elder Bai Mei stroked his beard and said meaningfully.

Everyone knew who he was referring to, but the elders did not take it seriously.

To have Gu Yiping’s approval, that disciple was indeed outstanding. However, from the situation just now, the reason why Gu Yiping’s evaluation of Jiang Hong was so high was probably because her personal emotions influenced her.

About this, the few elders present were happy and regretful.

The cabbage that they had been happy to raise for so long had finally been enlightened and knew how to be taken advantage of.

Looking at what happened today, the pride of the Black Heaven Sect would probably sink deep into love.

If she fell too deep, it would probably affect her future cultivation progress.

“Should we warn them a little?”

After all, they were still very young. It would not be a joke if someone died.

The elders exchanged glances and muttered softly.

Gu Yiping walked over with a troubled expression and asked in confusion,

“Elders, do you think there’s something wrong with this disk? Junior Brother’s position seems to be a little different from the others.”

‘Different?’

Hearing this, Elder Bai Mei was the first to look over.

“…It’s indeed a little different. Why is Jiang Hong’s position so different from the others?” Elder Bai Mei frowned.

Hearing this, the other elders also looked over.

According to the information on the Profound Disk, Jiang Hong’s movements were different from the others. He seemed to be running in the opposite direction from the other disciples.

What was he doing?

Did he take the wrong path? There should only be one path. What was he trying to do?

Elder Bai Mei and the others muttered in confusion, unable to come up with an answer.

“I’ll go over and take a look. Perhaps something has happened,” Elder Bai Mei said.

When Gu Yiping heard this, if not for the fact that there were so many people present, she would definitely raise her arms and shout excitedly.

‘Yes, that’s right. That’s it. Hurry up and go over. Find evidence of that great demon betraying the sect and catch him red-handed. Expel him and put him on the wanted list.. When that time comes… Hehe.’

“Wait a minute, this position doesn’t seem right. Why do I feel that there’s something wrong with the markings here?”

Gu Yiping: ???

‘Problems? What problems?’

In their confusion, everyone looked in the direction of the voice. The person who spoke was Elder Shang, who was relatively young among the elders.

“Junior Brother Shang, what do you mean?” Elder Bai Mei asked.

Elder Shang pointed at the sect’s Profound Disk and then at the one in Gu Yiping’s hand.

“Senior Brother Bai, you guys compare it carefully. This disk shows that Jiang Hong is at this point, but it’s clearly Shen Xingjian at this point.”

“Now that you mention it, their points do seem to overlap. I remember that they should be in different groups.”

Elder Bai Mei and the others were puzzled. Just as they thought that someone had changed groups without permission,

There were actually two more people who overlapped with Jiang Hong’s location.

Several green dots overlapped at this moment and did not move.

What were they doing?

Forming a pyramid was even harder, a sweat-inducing task.

Wasn’t this group of brats playing a little too well?

“Elders, bad news. A white fog suddenly rose from the mountain where the sect trial is. We can’t monitor the situation inside.”

A disciple suddenly reported anxiously.

Hearing this, the elders reacted.

Oh no, something happened!

Elder Bai Mei immediately made the arrangements. “Junior Brother Shang, you will go with me. The rest of you will be on standby. As for Gu Yiping, you should go back to the sect. Gu Yiping?”

Looking at the anxious figure that had already disappeared into the distance, leaving only a small dot, everyone widened their eyes.

Alright, she was so anxious about her junior brother. As expected, a grown woman couldn’t be kept.

Elder Bai Mei and the others followed closely behind with complicated feelings.

As for Gu Yiping, who was rapidly flying on her sword, she had an anxious expression on her face. She no longer had the calm from before.

“What’s going on? What’s going on now? Why is there a problem with the position of the other disciples? A white fog suddenly appeared… These weren’t there last time.”

Gu Yiping bit her thumb, her exquisite beauty condensing into one.

As she thought about it, a bold idea suddenly appeared in her mind.

“Could it be that all of this was done by that great devil? That’s probably why he kept rejecting my Profound Disk just now.”

It might sound a little ridiculous, and he didn’t know how the other party knew her plan, but this was the best way to explain the current situation.

The more Gu Yiping thought about it, the more terrified she became. She sped up and rushed towards the location indicated by the Profound Disk.
