Come back!

"They never expected Baili Hongzhuang to have such a stunning performance in this alchemy competition," they thought. "It seems our daughter is truly low-key! Despite her incredible talent, she never mentioned it. It's rare for someone of Baili Hongzhuang's age to be so modest. Compared to the arrogant and proud Lan Qingyan, Baili Hongzhuang is far superior!"

Mu Ling's heart was filled with pride. Yue Manlan thought she could ruin Baili Hongzhuang, but her hopes were never shattered. On the contrary, Mu Ling felt an indescribable sense of pride. Emperor Beichen's face was adorned with a gentle and infatuated smile. His Red Cloak was incomparable! Regardless of the circumstances, her elegance was enough to captivate anyone.

"Haha, Gu Zongzhu, this time we have surpassed them!" Situ Yan laughed heartily. He was already delighted with the victory, but the fact that it was his granddaughter who achieved it made him even happier. He had always known that Baili Hongzhuang had excellent talent in cultivation, but he had never imagined that her skills in alchemy would be so remarkable. It was a pleasant surprise for him. Compared to everything now, he felt that everything was rapidly improving.

As Situ Yan's radiant smile caught everyone's attention, Gu Weixiong's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. This humiliation was unbearable! Moreover, he had come here despite not needing to, and he could already imagine the mocking laughter from other forces after they learned of this news. This time, their Medicine Sect had truly suffered a setback!

Gu Weixiong's gaze fell on Baili Hongzhuang. When he returned, he would definitely investigate Baili Hongzhuang's identity. If there was an opportunity, he would make every effort to recruit her to the Medicine Sect. Such a talented alchemist should not be missed; it would be a waste! "Let's go!" Gu Weixiong stood up abruptly, his face turning ironclad as he looked at Shangguan Yufeng and the others. He turned around and walked towards the entrance of the Tian Gang Sect.

Today, they had completely lost face. They had stayed because the alchemy competition had not ended yet, but leaving now without any grace would be too embarrassing. With the competition over, there was no need for them to continue enduring the ridicule of others.

Shangguan Yufeng and the disciples followed suit after hearing Gu Weixiong's words. In fact, they had wanted to leave a long time ago, as every second here felt uncomfortable. Now that they had a chance to leave, it felt like a reprieve!

Du Feiyang and Yao Xing also hurriedly followed. They had lost all face in this competition, and dealing with the aftermath would be the most troublesome part. At least for the time being, the label of the Medicine Sect would be difficult to remove!

Situ Yan didn't react to Gu Weixiong's departure; he simply watched him leave in silence. This competition had been a complete victory for the Tian Gang Sect! He believed that Gu Weixiong would never easily set a trap for him again. After all, no one wanted to repeat the foolish mistake of losing the chicken while trying to steal its rice.

Smiles appeared on the faces of everyone from the Tian Gang Sect. The Medicine Sect had come with great momentum but ended up with a futile effort. It was truly a joyous occasion!
