But this young man had managed to slaughter them single-handedly, just how terrifying was his strength?
Zhong Anan took a deep breath, "If that were all, it would be fine, but the key issue is that from beginning to end, I couldn’t fathom his personality or character!"
"You say he is arrogant and kills without batting an eyelid, yet he boldly took action just for someone unrelated. You say he is cold and aloof, yet sometimes he acts like a child!"
"I specifically approached him later, hoping to strike up a conversation and get a little closer. As it turned out, he wasn’t swayed by such approaches at all. All my flattery was like air in his presence, and under his gaze, I felt like a clown, feeling that all my thoughts were transparent to him!"
At this point, Zhong Anan shivered slightly, a hint of fear evident on her face as she clearly recalled Xue An’s gaze.
Mu Guqing remained silent.
Zhong Anan then took another deep breath, steadied her spirit, and said solemnly, "Master, this time, the Heavenly Fire Divine Clan and other powerful clans have united, and though they seem formidable, their intricate relationships and the massive benefits involved mean they cannot truly cooperate sincerely. This will likely cause them to hinder each other!"
"I therefore have a premonition that Xue An will definitely win! And for our Taiyin Deity Clan, we must tightly seize this opportunity to rise!"
Mu Guqing did not hesitate at all and immediately nodded in agreement, "Good! What should we prepare to do next?"
Zhong Anan responded, "Master, we have already completely fallen out with the Heavenly Fire Divine Clan. Qi Xuanfeng may not have other skills, but he is capable of stirring up trouble. After he returns, the Heavenly Fire Divine Clan will surely send people over. Therefore, I think it’s best if we head to the Cursed City now!"
Mu Guqing frowned slightly, "You mean... temporarily give up on the Taiyin Pool?"
Zhong Anan nodded, "Exactly, only by doing so can we preserve our strength!"
"But won’t this be too risky? With the protection of the Taiyin Pool, we might not be unable to hold out for ten days!" Mu Guqing’s voice lowered towards the end, slowly understanding Zhong Anan’s meaning.
Zhong Anan lowered her eyes and said, "Master, though I am a woman, I know not to sit on the fence, otherwise we will surely suffer! If our Taiyin Deity Clan really wants to seize this opportunity, we must go all-in. Only by doing so can we show our sincerity to Xue An!"
Mu Guqing quietly watched her most beloved disciple. After a moment, she nodded, "Well said! Anan, it seems you have matured enough over these past years. With this, I can rest assured."
Zhong Anan was stunned, "Master, what did you say?"
Just as she finished speaking, suddenly, someone outside shouted in alarm, "Elder Xuan Hun, the gate is not open, what are you trying to do?"
Then several screams were heard.
Hearing this, Zhong Anan’s expression drastically changed.
But Mu Guqing appeared much calmer, her eyes flashed, and then she pulled out a highly intricate eavesdropping talisman hidden underneath the table.
Zhong Anan immediately understood, "Master..."
Mu Guqing’s expression was cold as ice, "Anan, you were right, this Xuan Hun really is up to no good. It’s a pity I didn’t listen to you earlier, I should have directly crippled her cultivation level and expelled her from the sect!"
As they were speaking, Mu Guqing and her disciple had already rushed outside.
Just at that moment, the bodies of several disciples responsible for guarding the Mountain Protection Array fell from the sky.
And the Mountain Protection Array had just been breached, creating a large hole. Seeing Mu Guqing and her disciple rushing out, Xuan Hun couldn’t help but sneer.
"Clan Leader, my apologies, you may wish to ally with the Cursed City, but I don’t wish to die just yet! Farewell!"
Saying this, she was about to escape through the Mountain Protection Array.
By now, all the elders had been alerted and were rushing over.
But in terms of stopping her, it was clearly too late.
Just then, Mu Guqing swept her robe sleeves, soared into the air, and with a thunderous momentum, arrived in front of Xuan Hun, then shouted sharply.
"How dare you commit such treachery!"
Saying so, Mu Guqing struck out with her palm.
