Ran Shuang looked at her, her fists gradually clenching. "Naturally, blood debt must be paid with blood. What hardships I endured, what suffering I went through, you must experience it all."
"Then we'll throw her into the serpent's maw," Ma Huai stepped forward and grabbed Zeng Rou.
"Ah!" Zeng Rou's shoulder was seized, and her legs trembled as she collapsed onto the ground.
The serpent's maw! They were going to throw her into the serpent's maw!
She struggled and pleaded desperately, "No! I know I was wrong! Senior Sister Ran, we are from the same sect after all! You can't be so heartless!"
"From the same sect," Ran Shuang snorted coldly. "When you pushed me into the serpent's maw, did you mention we were from the same sect?"
"We still have a competition and can't leave. Jing Feng," Bai Ran called out, and Jing Feng suddenly appeared before them.
"Who are you!" Sun Jianning immediately drew his weapon, his face full of vigilance.
Ma Huai pressed his hand down. "She should be Captain Bai's subordinate."
"Find another ten-thousand-year-old python and throw her into the serpent's maw," Bai Ran's cold voice rang out.
"No!!! You can't do this to me!!!" Zeng Rou's body trembled, and she still tried to struggle.
"Yes!" Jing Feng knocked Zeng Rou unconscious without hesitation and dragged her away.
Such ruthless and decisive methods made Gu Ke and the others beside them turn pale with fright.
Bai Ran slowly turned her head. "Sect Leader Xiong did not receive the news, it was you who did this, wasn't it?"
Gu Ke tightly clutched Ning Xue's sleeve, but Ning Xue desperately tried to pull her hand away.
"No! It wasn't us!" Ning Xue shook her head vigorously.
"It was Zeng Rou! Yes! Zeng Rou instructed us!"
Xiao Ya quickly tried to absolve herself, but the moment the words left her mouth, she clapped her hands over her mouth and trembled.
"Well, that's an involuntary confession," Wen Hongyi spread his hands.
Ran Shuang gritted her teeth. "As core disciples of Que Tian Sect, your hearts are so vicious. Captain Bai, how will they be dealt with?"
Bai Ran glanced at Sect Leader Xiong, who was beaming on the platform. "Since Sect Leader Xiong did not receive the news, these few will be handed over to him for disposal."
It was time to find some business for that old man.
"Second match! Zi Yun Sect versus Chang Men Sect!" the referee's voice rang out. Ma Huai swiftly tied up Gu Ke and the others, even gagging their mouths.
After dealing with those who needed to be dealt with, they took their seats.
Bai Ran's thin lips parted slightly. "Xiao Ming and Su Yi Chen from Zi Yun Sect are two tricky individuals. You should observe their strength and movements carefully."
"Yes!" The four of them watched the two figures intently.
On the sect leader's platform, Sect Leader Xiong was smiling so widely that his mouth couldn't close. "How did Shen Yin Sect become so weak? They couldn't even last two rounds against our Que Tian Sect disciples?"
Qian Jing clenched her back teeth, her face turning from pale to red, then from red to pale. "Sect Leader Xiong speaks the truth. I will surely urge my disciples to cultivate diligently upon returning to the sect."
Dong Fang covered his mouth and chuckled. At this moment, a graceful figure slowly walked out and placed her hand on Dong Fang Wu Ji's shoulder. "Wu Ji, this competition is too boring."
The sect leaders' eyes widened. Who was this woman? How could she be so intimate with the Sect Leader of Zi Yun Sect?
Dong Fang Wu Ji smiled indulgently. "You haven't fully recovered yet, why did you come out?"
Luo Qian Qian pouted. "You keep me cooped up in the room all day, I'm dying of boredom."
"Fetch a chair," Dong Fang Wu Ji said to a nearby servant, who quickly brought a chair and placed it beside him.
"Sit down, the match hasn't reached its climax yet."
Luo Qian Qian smiled and sat beside him.
At this moment, Qian Jing frowned and spoke. "Sect Leader Dong Fang, I don't know who this woman is, but this high platform can only accommodate the sect leaders of the major sects. Otherwise, wouldn't it be chaotic without a clear hierarchy?"
"Bang—!" A powerful spiritual energy attack struck, and Qian Jing was slammed heavily onto her seat.
Sect Leader Xiong and the new Sect Leader of Chang Men Sect were shocked. Dong Fang Wu Ji had actually attacked Qian Jing!
"She can sit wherever she wants," Dong Fang Wu Ji slowly lowered his hand, his eyes icy.
"This old man is being nosy..." Sect Leader Xiong said sheepishly. "Who is this woman?"
He slowly took Luo Qian Qian's hand, his gaze gentle. "She is the person I love."
The person he loved! The two looked at the obedient woman in disbelief. When did the Sect Leader of Zi Yun Sect have a beloved?
Luo Qian Qian smiled sweetly. "Don't worry, I won't cause trouble. I was just too bored staying in the room and wanted to come out for a walk."
After Qian Jing's lesson, the two still chose to ignore her actions.
After all, Dong Fang Wu Ji could be quite terrifying when angry...
At this moment, Bai Ran also noticed the scene on the high platform. She frowned as she looked at the woman beside Dong Fang Wu Ji.
"The match is over! Zi Yun Sect wins!" Ma Huai stood up excitedly. "Xiao Ming is simply too strong!"
Sun Jian Ning was also amazed by the perfect coordination between Xiao Ming and Su Yi Chen. "Those two have excellent chemistry, they are indeed difficult to deal with..."
"Captain Bai, in terms of strength, we might not be able to match those two," Ran Shuang said with some worry.
"It's fine. You handle the remaining three. Xiao Ming and Su Yi Chen are mine," Bai Ran said calmly.
At this moment, Su Yi Chen looked at Bai Ran in the audience and gave her a flirtatious wink.
Bai Ran twitched the corner of her mouth at his gesture, unsure what to say.
"So Su Yi Chen winked at Captain Bai," Sun Jian Ning whispered, his eyes filled with gossip.
"Yes, I saw it too!" Wen Hong Yi said excitedly. "Does he like Captain Bai?"
A sharp glare swept over them, and the two instantly became as quiet as quails.
"Next match! Chang Men Sect versus Que Tian Sect!"
"It's our turn to go on stage," the group stood up.
Unsurprisingly, Bai Ran still did not make a move, and the four of them won instantly once again.
Next was Zi Yun Sect versus Shen Yin Sect, and the winner was decided in the blink of an eye.
"Wu Ji, those two from Zi Yun Sect are so strong, did you teach them?" Luo Qian Qian asked excitedly.
Dong Fang Wu Ji chuckled. "Their strength is considered top-tier within Zi Yun Sect, but there is one person stronger than them."
"Stronger than them? Who is it?"
Dong Fang Wu Ji looked at Bai Ran in the audience. Luo Qian Qian followed his gaze and saw a woman? And she was so beautiful?
"But she hasn't made a move all this time, isn't she winning by relying on her teammates?" Luo Qian Qian felt a pang of jealousy.
However, Dong Fang Wu Ji didn't notice. "She was the number one on the Heavenly Pride Ranking before, and her strength is enough to crush those two from Zi Yun Sect."
"Oh..." Luo Qian Qian lowered her head, her mood somewhat dejected. "You don't happen to have a crush on that woman, do you...?"
Dong Fang Wu Ji was stunned for a moment, then laughed. "Qian Qian, she is someone the Venerable One fancies. How would I dare to have inappropriate thoughts?"
Someone the Venerable One fancies! Luo Qian Qian's eyes widened instantly. The Venerable One actually liked an ordinary woman??
"What's so special about her?" she asked in shock. It was well-known that the Venerable One did not like women getting close to him. What was special about this woman?
