With this in mind, they all completely let go of their displeasure, dedicating their full attention to helping Yu Zhenzi accomplish this task.

For matters concerning his future, Deng Zhong considered even more comprehensively. He whispered, “However, even if we can temporarily overpower these people, I’m afraid they won’t be dedicated. Any sign of trouble, these people may scatter like birds, or change their loyalties on a whim.”

His worry was not without reason; if these people could easily set aside the matter of the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, they would also easily betray them in the future.

“Hehe, and what of it?” Yu Zhenzi said contemptuously, seemingly unconcerned about this matter.

“The so-called ‘strong wind knows the sturdy grass, loyal ministers are known in troubled times’. Without these people as a foil, how could our loyalty be highlighted?” Yu Zhenzi laughed.

Ever since Pei Xuanjing revealed his might, Yu Zhenzi had completely submitted to him, casting aside his former face-saving pride and considering himself Pei Xuanjing’s most loyal subordinate.

In his heart, he even maliciously thought that once Pei Xuanjing encountered any setbacks in the future, these people would waver, while he would remain unswerving; wouldn’t this further highlight his loyalty?

Upon hearing this, Deng Zhong had a sudden realization. He then heard Yu Zhenzi murmur, “Besides, do you really think there is anyone in this world who could pose a threat to Pei Xuanjing?” Yu Zhenzi’s faith in Pei Xuanjing was perhaps even greater than Pei Xuanjing’s in himself.

In Yu Zhenzi’s view, Pei Xuanjing currently possessed tremendous strength, plus the support and cooperation from the forces represented by Taoist Qingxu and Bai Xiaosheng. This was a powerful force enough to shock the world.

Once he helped Pei Xuanjing absorb the forces originally belonging to the Shenxiao Sect, he would have filled the final gap in Pei Xuanjing’s strength puzzle.

With the cooperation of these three forces, not to mention taking over the whole martial world, even upsetting the Great Ming royal family’s rule was not improbable.

Just as Yu Zhenzi was envisioning the future, others were also discussing this matter.

At the Mire Sect’s headquarters, Sect Leader Zhao Baiyang listened to his disciple Yu Yiyao’s report.

“Master, your foresight is truly awe-inspiring. The Lord of Shenxiao Gate did indeed prove to be a man who has more bark than bite. This attempted ambush not only failed to kill Pei Xuanjing, but he was killed on the spot instead,” Yu Yiyao said, looking at her Master with adoration.

She had originally thought that even if the Lord of Shenxiao Gate’S attempt to ambush Pei Xuanjing failed, and Pei Xuanjing managed to narrowly escape, he would still be injured.

But she hadn’t expected the result to be completely different from her anticipation. This time, Pei Xuanjing didn’t die or get injured in the face of the Shenxiao Gate Master’s ambush. Instead, he slew the master who had intended to ambush him on the spot.

After hearing this news, Yu Yiyao was stunned for a long time. The man was indeed as her Master had said, reaching a level equal to her Master’s.

Of course, this was due in large part to Bai Xiaosheng completely concealing his and Taoist Qingxu’s involvement when spreading the news, which put Pei Xuanjing in the spotlight, making his achievement in this battle seem even more terrifying.

Regardless, at this moment, she, Yu Yiyao, no longer harbored any thoughts of competing with him.

While Yu Yiyao was praising her Master’s prophetic insight, the Maitreya Sect Leader Zhao Baiyang, the subject of her praise and compliments, was not pleased. On the contrary, his face bore a serious expression.

“If possible, I would rather that my prediction this time failed. However, unexpectedly, my words indeed turned prophetic,” said Zhao Baiyang.

“Master, what do you mean?” Yu Yiyao asked in confusion. “Technically speaking, although the Lord of Shenxiao Gate has cooperated with us, there have also been conflicts between us. Pei Xuanjing killing him this time is like removing a trouble for us.”

The forces in the martial world are limited, and conflicts and collisions are inevitable between the different factions.

Even though the Mire Sect and the Shenxiao Gate had collaborated during Ning King’s rebellion, and jointly caused an uprising in the Northwest Dao, it did not mean that they were close. Instead, there were many differences between the two sides.

Otherwise, upon hearing the news of Ning King’s death, Shenxiao Gate’s first reaction was to recall their top experts from the Northwest Dao.

On one hand, because he knew Zhu Chenhao’s death meant all the plans were ruined; on the other hand, he was worried that Zhao Baiyang, the Maitreya Sect Leader, might harbor ill-will towards them.

In the end, just as he had suspected, Zhao Baiyang withdrew, leaving many Northwest Dao forces to take the blame, thereby allowing the Shenxiao Gate Master to fortunately escape a disaster.

Glancing at the slightly confused Yu Yiyao, Zhao Baiyang shook his head and said, “The late Lord of Shenxiao Gate was just a wolf at best, but the current Pei Xuanjing is a tiger. Even if this tiger is still somewhat weak. it is bevond anv comoarison to a wolf.”

Despite the Shenxiao Gate Master’s strength, he was not taken seriously by Zhao Baiyang.

In his view, perhaps due to hiding for too long in the shadows, the Gate Master had become too cautious and lost the courage to truly fight. The Gate Master’s thoughts and considerations rested only on the immediate gains and losses. He was not a formidable character.

Pei Xuanjing, on the other hand, was different. Zhao Baiyang had high regard for him, yet Pei Xuanjing consistently exceeded his expectations, which surprised Zhao Baiyang immensely.

While it wasn’t modest, he saw a reflection of his own rise in Pei Xuanjing, perhaps even more impressive than his own..
