At the same time, the faces of the cultivators from the Pure Land Sect, Taixuan Sect, and Shibuyuan were extremely ugly, especially some of the Jindan elders.
Some disciples did not notice the problem just now, but the Jindan Elder and some people who were observant had already discovered the difference. The way these two teams of demon cultivators were teleported was different from before.
Before, Li Yan and his group came out by being teleported by bubbles, but just now the demon cultivator appeared in a ball of colorful light. Perhaps because of the sudden appearance of the colorful light, some people were only able to recognize who they were and forgot how Li Yan and his group came out.
At this moment, another dazzling ball of colorful light lit up from the spherical mountain. When the light slowly dissipated, more than a dozen figures were revealed, led by a big yellow-haired man.
He looked around with a look of joy on his face, and immediately saw the surrounding situation clearly. He couldn't help but burst into laughter, released the flying magic weapon, and without a moment's hesitation, he swept everyone behind him and rushed straight to the mountain where the Wuliang Sect was located with a whistling sound.
"It's Gan Shi from the Wuling Sect. He looks so happy, it seems like he got a lot of benefits!"
"It's the colorful light again... It's not the bubble transmission from before. This... This should be the top three teams. But if what Jin Chuiyan said before is true, could it be that the Wuliang Sect actually won two places?"
"It's Master Gan and his group. Why did Mei Bucai and Cheng Jingnian come out with this group?"
After seeing the person in the colorful light, many cultivators of the Wuliang Sect looked puzzled, and some looked at Gong Chenying who was standing not far from Elder Peng.
"Mei Bucai and the others are still alive!"
After seeing Mei Bucai and his six companions and the spirit storage bag hanging on his waist, Gong Chenying smiled. Li Yan also felt relieved, as he was also concerned about these companions who had been through life and death with him.
However, when he saw Mei Bucai's six players, he couldn't help feeling a little sad. Although he had learned from Gong Chenying a long time ago that there were only fourteen people left in their team, when these people really appeared in his sight, he felt that many familiar figures were missing.
Some of the people who had fought side by side with him, whether good or bad, were lying in Gong Chenying's storage bag, while others did not even leave a trace in this world.
Just as Gan Shi came roaring over, a ball of colorful light lit up on the spherical mountain, which immediately made Gan Shi and the others lose their focus. All eyes were cast towards that area, which made Gan Shi, who was originally enjoying it, look back and mutter something.
"Baili, you should wait until I report to the elders before you come out."
Under everyone's gaze, the light dissipated, revealing a dozen people led by Baili Yuan. After he saw their location clearly, he waved his sleeves, and an ancient scroll floated in the air, then grew to more than ten feet in size.
Baili Yuan took a step forward, and a dozen Qi Condensation disciples behind him followed closely. Only after all the disciples had come up did Baili Yuan slowly urge the scroll under his feet and fly towards the mountain where the Wuliang Sect was located.
"Amitabha!"
The burly, ruddy-faced Master Yisong of the Pure Land Sect, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly stood up from the rock at this moment.
As his eyes opened and closed, a gleam of light flashed, and he stared without blinking at the colorful light on the spherical mountain that was slowly dissipating.
The people from Shibuyuan, Taixuan Sect, and the demon cultivators were also staring at the spherical mountain, hoping that light would appear again. For a moment, it was surprisingly quiet here.
Until Gan Shi, Baili Yuan and others landed on the mountain where the Wangliang Sect was located, there was no movement from the spherical mountain in the center.
Qiu Jiuzhen's pretty face became paler and paler, her delicate body trembled constantly, and gradually despair appeared in her eyes. Finally, she stared fiercely in the direction of Shibuyuan, where a person was lying flat at the feet of Xiahua Jianwang.
As soon as Mei Bucai and his companions landed, they started looking for Gong Chenying everywhere. They immediately found Gong Chenying in the crowd in front and Li Yan beside him. The six of them couldn't help but show excitement on their faces and rushed over.
When Wang Tian and the others saw this scene, they couldn't help but show surprise. For a moment, they really didn't know why Mei Bucai and others appeared in Gan Shi's team.
Although Mei Bucai was fat, his speed was not slow at all. He had already passed Gan Shi and ran directly towards Gong Chenying, which made Gan Shi, who was walking in front and enjoying everyone's attention and striding towards Elder Peng, stunned.
Then, when they saw that it was Mei Bucai, the six people were stunned and whispered angrily.
"You are a bunch of useless people, but I brought you here."
Then he looked at Gong Chenying and Li Yan, and a big smile appeared on his face. Rui Feikai, Dai Jing and Zhu Gaotai behind him also saw Li Yan, and after confessing their crimes to Gan Shi, they also walked quickly towards Li Yan, making Gan Shi very depressed, so he had to walk towards Elder Peng alone.
The actions here had already surprised the other cultivators of the Wangliang Sect. Even the Jindan elders were very interested and turned their eyes to Gong Chenying.
"It seems that what Gong Chenying and Li Yan said is true. Mei Bucai and the others' expressions are not fake. Even the team led by Gan Shisuo looked very excited. I think they are all going for Li Yan."
A faint smile appeared on Elder Yi's usually serious face, and the others also nodded.
Mei Bucai and his companions came very quickly and were in front of Gong Chenying in the blink of an eye, under the surprised or suspicious gazes of Li Wuyi, Wang Tian, the Chu brothers and others.
Mei Bucai had already reached out and taken off the spirit storage bag from his waist. With an excited look on his face, he respectfully presented the spirit storage bag in his hand to Gong Chenying, while speaking loudly.
"Disciple Mei Bucai has fulfilled his mission and brought all the remaining junior brothers and sisters back to Uncle Gong Chen for inspection."
Gong Chenying also smiled and reached out to take the spirit storage bag.
"You've worked hard. You guys can go take a rest."
After that, the spirit storage bag in his hand flashed with rays of light, and eight seriously injured people including Wu Shixi and Ding Yiwei appeared on the ground. Looking at these eight people, Gong Chenying showed a trace of sadness on her face. She thought of the 22 people who died in the battle, and then she turned her head and looked at Elder Peng and others with pleading eyes.
Just as she looked over, an elder from Laojun Peak strode over, and Gan Shi, who had just walked here, had a dim look in his eyes.
He stretched out his hand and slapped his waist. After a flash of light, ten figures appeared immediately from the two spirit storage bags. At the same time, Gan Shi bowed deeply to the elder of Laojun Peak.
Then, he turned around and respectfully clasped his fists to Li Yan who was standing aside, and then walked towards Elder Peng and others again.
Mei Bucai, Cheng Jingnian, Zhu Gaotai and eight other people who came out of the spirit storage bag bowed deeply to Li Yan.
"We would like to thank Uncle Li!"
Li Yanzao looked at the people in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little dazed, as if he saw Yu Yinong, the scholar with a scholarly spirit, again, the scholar who brought him to the Wuliang Sect.
There was also Hu Ziyi, who had deep feelings for Yu Yiyong, and even Qi Busheng and Mi Yuanzhi, who were at loggerheads with him. Within a few days, they had been separated from him forever, without a word or a trace, and he was filled with emotion for a moment.
The actions of Gan Shi, Mei Bucai and others were all seen by the other people from the Wangliang Sect in the distance. They were shocked. Even Li Wuyi, Li Changting and Zhao Min looked surprised and suspicious.
No one knew why Mei Bucai and the others were so respectful to Li Yan. Although Li Yan was their uncle in name only, everyone knew that few people in the Four Peaks truly regarded Li Yan as an elder.
Li Yan is too shallow both in terms of qualifications and cultivation.
Gan Shi's behavior was especially puzzling. Gan Shi was such an arrogant person. There were only a handful of people of his peers who could treat him like this. Only Li Wuyi, Baili Yuan and a few others had some qualifications. Even Gong Chenying and Wang Tian were not worthy of such treatment.
And as everyone was looking at them in surprise, an even more surprising scene happened. Baili Yuan was leading his men closer.
Baili Yuan first released the seriously injured and asked the Jindan Elder to treat them. Then, he actually looked at Li Yan, clasped his hands together, and was extremely polite.
The group of Qi Condensation disciples behind him, like Mei Bushai and the others, also walked up to Li Yan and bowed deeply.
"We are here to see Uncle Li. If Uncle Li has any requests in the future, just summon him."
Seeing this, Li Yan knew that his character had become mature in the past few years. Faced with something that had never happened before, he still felt a little embarrassed and spoke in a panic.
"It's good to be back, it's good to be back!"
After Mei Bucai and dozens of others finished paying their respects, they were about to explain the details to Li Yan with a look of joy on their faces, while the Jindan elder of Laojun Peak, who was squatting on the ground treating the wounded, raised his head.
With a slight wave of his hand, an invisible light shield immediately enveloped these Qi Condensation disciples, and his lips moved slightly...
After a while, these dozens of Qi Condensation Stage disciples showed puzzled expressions, but no one came forward to interact with Li Yan anymore. However, their eyes towards Li Yan were still full of respect.
This made Li Wuyi and the others even more curious, but the Jindan elder glanced over and stopped them from going forward to talk to Li Yan. They had no choice but to stop moving forward, with doubts in their hearts.
To those on other mountains dozens of miles away, these situations seemed like just greetings between people who had survived a disaster.
The Jindan elder from Laojun Peak did not tell Mei Bucai and others about what happened inside the Wheel of Life and Death when they saluted, so he allowed them to meet Li Yan.
If I stopped them abruptly, it would seem like a problem, so I just let them say hello.
However, when Mei Bucai and dozens of others wanted to talk to Li Yan about their separation, he immediately sent a message to keep them silent, although this order made these Qi Condensation Stage disciples very puzzled.
But seeing that Li Yan was fine, it was obvious that Elder Jindan's action was not directed at Li Yan, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He could only stand aside and wait for the final result of this trip.
Time passed little by little like this, and finally discussions began to arise on the various mountain peaks, and became louder and louder.
The faces of the Jindan monks from the Pure Land Sect, Shibuyuan, and Taixuan Sect became more and more gloomy, and finally they all turned their attention to the Wangliang Sect, because all three teams had come out to fight against their target. Although some people died, this was far beyond their plans.
After Jin Chuiyan and Wu Wuan came back, the demon cultivators were also called over by Yin Congfeng and others. After being interrogated in detail, they finally turned their attention to the Wangliang Sect.
The eight Jindan elders of the Wuliang Sect seemed not to notice any of this and kept whispering with Baili Yuan and Gan Shi.
The Qi Condensation disciples were finally called over by the Foundation Establishment cultivators, but what these people didn't know was that all matters related to Li Yan were vaguely glossed over by these Qi Condensation disciples.
The reason why they were so grateful to Li Yan just now was that although Li Yan's cultivation was low, his special physique helped them pass the level and reduced a lot of casualties.
Especially in the last level, after everyone merged into one area, Uncle-Master Gong asked Uncle-Master Li to find the other two teams and assist them in setting up the formation and poisoning when the number of spirit beasts they brought was reduced and the number of elixirs was insufficient.
These reasons were very far-fetched. Although Wang Tian, Li Wuyi and others were smart and felt that there were serious problems, they vaguely understood that this was the intention of the sect's top leaders and did not dare to ask any further questions.
But the more this happened, the more these foundation-building cultivators felt a sense of mystery about Li Yan, and Li Yan's weight in their hearts was invisibly increased. In particular, some people who had looked down on Li Yan before also began to pay attention to Li Yan.
