Elder Jing's expression turned cold by the time Yang Wei finished explaining what happened in the Misty Forest.
"Hmph, those bandits really have the guts to target my sect's disciples." Elder Jing sneered.
"Elder Kun, inform the disciples that the test will be delayed for now and have them return to the sect." She then said.
"B-But if we cancel the test then what are we going to do about the inner disciple exam?" Elder Kun stuttered.
Elder Jing pondered for a moment. "Have them fight in the arena and the strongest one would be promoted. After all, I got some beef with the Scavenger Tiger."
Elder Jing's expression was ferocious as she mentioned the bandit group and even Elder Kun couldn't help but feel a chill.
'What did the Scavenger Tiger do to offend Elder Jing?' Elder Kun asked inwardly as he nodded his head.
"I understand Elder Jing. I will activate the disciples' talisman and bring them here." Elder Kun then said as he started making some hand movements.
Spiritual qi started surrounding him briefly and a few moments later, multiple disciples were teleported next to Elder? Kun.
"What happened?"
"Why am I here? I was fighting a Poisonous Snake."
The outer disciples were full of confusion as they glanced at Elder Kun for an explanation.
Meanwhile, Shen Zhiming and Dai Feng were calm as they knew this would happen when Yang Wei went to report the incident.
"What's the headcount, Elder Kun?" Elder Jing ignored the disciples' confusion as she asked Elder Kun.
Elder Kun took a deep breath before shaking his head. "We are missing around 12 disciples."
Elder Jing nodded her head. "It's good enough since we would have lost more disciples if Yang Wei didn't inform us."
Afterward, she exuded a bit of her aura to gain the attention of the outer disciples.
"Due to an unexpected situation happening in the Misty Forest, the test will be canceled." Elder Jing announced.
"However, the test would continue in an arena format where Elder Kun would guide you all back and explain the rules." She then added before the outer disciples could complain.
"I'll leave the disciples to you, Elder Kun."
"I understand."
Sometime later, Elder Kun brought the disciples back to the sect whereas Elder Jing remained at the entrance of the Misty Forest.
"Umm- why didn't Elder Kun bring me back as well?" Yang Wei suddenly asked.
Elder Kun had retrieved a flying treasure for the outer disciples to rest but had purposely stopped him from boarding.
"Isn't it obvious that you would be guiding me to the scene of the incident?" Elder Jing replied.
"Oh, I thought it was so we could spend some time alone as a couple." Yang Wei teased as he walked toward her and held her hand.
Elder Jing interlocked her finger with his and started laughing. "Then why were you acting all confused before? I thought you wanted to leave with Elder Kun."
"I wanted to leave because I didn't want others to start gossiping about you." Yang Wei shrugged his shoulders. "But since you don't seem to mind their gossip, then why should I care as well?"
"Anyway, can you tell me the bandits' appearance?" Elder Jing changed the topic.
Yang Wei nodded his head as he began describing Brother Shan's appearance and the other four bandits.
Elder Jing's expression was solemn the entire time as she made an evil grin.
"Who would have thought the Scavenger Tiger was hiding in the Misty Forest this entire time?" Elder Jing sneered as she clenched her fist.
Yang Wei sensed her emotion fluctuating as he quickly hugged her. "What's wrong, Jing Feng?"
"Yang Wei, didn't you want to take revenge for me?" Elder Jing asked.
Yang Wei's expression turned cold as he realized something. "The Scavenger Tiger had a role in your injury?"
Elder Jing nodded her head.
Yang Wei embraced her tighter as he whispered softly, "We shall give them a bang then."
"What kind of bang are we talking about?"
"I was thinking of having magical beasts going on a rampage in their camp."
"Why do I feel like you're getting more ruthless as time passes?"
Yang Wei grinned as he kissed Elder Jing on the lips. The kiss continued for a few moments before he pulled away from her and smiled.
"Could I still be considered a man if I didn't get revenge in the most ruthless method?" Yang Wei said as he retrieved some Toxic Smoke from his storage ring.
"Aren't those Toxic Smoke from the Purple Scorpion Sect?" Elder Jing held a gawking expression at Yang Wei for having so much Toxic Smoke.
Yang Wei nodded his head.
"We have a certain grand elder to thank for. He was so generous to donate a lot of Toxic Smoke for us to use."
"I found this current Yang Wei more charming over the silent and quiet one."
Yang Wei laughed as he acted as a butler. "Then my lady, shall we do some hunting?"
"Yes, we should." Elder Jing then held his hand as they headed into the Misty Forest.
Sometime later, they arrived at the area where Yang Wei was ambushed by Brother Shan and four other bandits.
However, Elder Jing was speechless to see the corpses completely naked as she tilted her head to glance at Yang Wei.
Yang Wei showed an innocent expression as he shrugged his shoulders.
"You really looted everything." Elder Jing was speechless by his looting skills.
He didn't even leave anything on for the enemies he killed and would strip everything.
"It's not my fault that they got killed." Yang Wei said. "It would be a waste to leave their belongings in the ground."
Elder Jing twitched her mouth. 'How did I fall for such a poor man?'
"A-Anyway, Jing Feng, let's ignore this topic for now and get to the most important thing." Yang Wei said nervously.
"What kind of stuff?"
"Aren't you surprised how the stench of blood in this area is thick yet no magical beasts are around?"
