Zhou Chen looked back innocently.
Zhou Yin: "..."
Zhou Chen admitted defeat and dejectedly moved aside half a step.
Zhou Yin pushed the door open and walked in.
The furnishings and furniture in the room were no different from when he left, except for the originally clean and tidy bed...
The bed was a complete mess, covered in chicken feathers.
Zhou Yin: "..."
Zhou Chen stood behind him, silently wailing, as if he could already see his miserable fate later.
After standing still for a moment, Zhou Yin turned around.
The tall and straight figure had disappeared, replaced by a furball at his feet, blinking its eyes, looking kind and harmless, trying to use cuteness to escape responsibility.
"Zhou Yin!"
He looked up to see Qingying and Yun Zong walking over, followed by Cao Hang and three other Shangxuan Sect disciples.
"I heard from Yun Zong that you were injured. Are you alright?" Qingying looked him over and smiled, "It seems I was overthinking. Congratulations, your cultivation has improved again!"
Beside her, Yun Zong couldn't hide his surprise. He was clear about how severe Zhou Yin's injuries were at the time. He didn't expect that after being taken away by Zhou Chen for just one night, he had already recovered.
"Where is he?" Yun Zong asked.
Zhou Yin naturally knew who he was asking about. He glanced down and the furball had already disappeared without a trace.
"I'm leaving first."
Zhou Chen naturally didn't leave without saying goodbye. He just went to do something he thought was very important, something that even Zhou Yin with all his divine powers couldn't guess.
Of course, he would soon find out.
Qingying didn't have time to figure out what riddle they were playing. She said, "There are some things I need to discuss with you today."
Zhou Yin calmly said, "The room is a mess, let's go to your place."
Qingying didn't suspect anything and nodded, "Let's go to my room then."
Yun Zong at least understood Zhou Yin a little better than Qingying. Hearing this, he felt something was off and couldn't help glancing behind Zhou Yin.
Zhou Yin closed the door with a blank expression.
Yun Zong: "..."
After everyone was seated, Qingying said, "After you left yesterday, a big mess happened. Yun Zong has already given me a general overview of the dungeon's situation, but after the demon beasts were released, none of you were present. Some other things happened afterwards. Cao Hang, please tell your two martial uncles about it."
Yun Zong's injuries were not light. At this moment, his face was still a bit pale, but he had the spiritual medicine of Shangxuan Sect. After returning, he also had Qingying's dedicated care, so he looked about 70-80% recovered.
"Yes, Senior." Cao Hang stood up, his face lacking the usual playfulness and gossip, looking very solemn. He respectfully saluted and began to speak.
Zhou Chen had completely opened the seals and formations of the dungeon, and the demon beasts inside took the opportunity to escape, running straight into the cultivators from various sects who had rushed over after hearing the news, naturally resulting in an intense battle.
No matter how fierce the demon beasts were, they were no match for the overwhelming numbers on the cultivators' side. After injuring some people, they were quickly exterminated.
As a result, the screaming and scattering naked women, the dungeon, and the mating demon beasts and women below naturally came into everyone's view.
If the sudden appearance of demon beasts could be understood as Tianyan Sect being attacked by them, the existence of the dungeon left them at a loss for words.
Shangguan Han had no choice but to push all the blame onto Xiao Chengjun, who was unconscious on the side at the time, and publicly punished him according to sect rules, distancing himself and Tianyan Sect.
Everyone was not a fool. Although they couldn't do anything to Tianyan Sect while still on their territory, they inevitably had heavy doubts in their hearts. Many who were quick to see the situation had just repelled the demon beasts with their front foot, and with their back foot, they made excuses to take their leave and depart from Tianyan Sect.
As a result, the various major sects left one after another, scattering like birds and beasts. The sect conference originally scheduled to be held in a few days also ended without success.
The reason Qingying and the others were still here was naturally to wait for Zhou Yin to return.
This time, Shangguan Han's countless schemes had backfired on him. Because of this incident, not only had Tianyan Sect's reputation been ruined, Shangguan Han also had to face questioning and denouncement from within the sect. Whether he could keep his position as sect leader was still uncertain. In the short term, there was absolutely no possibility of him causing more trouble.
It completely fulfilled the saying: You reap what you sow.
However, Qingying's brows were furrowed, her expression not much relieved by this matter.
After Cao Hang finished speaking, she said, "This time, it's all thanks to you. When we return to our sect, I will personally request merits for you from Senior Brother Qinghe. But it's best if we set off back as soon as possible."
Zhou Yin's injuries had greatly improved, so he didn't mind either way. Yun Zong also said lightly, "I have no problem."
As soon as his words fell, a knocking sound was heard from outside.
"Master, it's your disciple Pang Yi!"
"Come in."
Pang Yi pushed the door open and entered, his expression a little strange.
Qingying frowned slightly, "If you have something to say, just say it. Don't stutter."
Pang Yi cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to Master and two martial uncles, Qin Wuji suddenly appeared in the square over there," he coughed dryly, "stark naked, asking everyone he met if he was a turtle bastard."
Seeing that everyone had the same strange expression as him, Pang Yi held back his laughter and continued, "If the person answered no, they would even get beaten up by him."
He had nearly lost his life due to Qin Wuji's schemes before, so he naturally despised the man greatly. Upon suddenly hearing this news, he almost burst out laughing - the Tianyan Sect had completely lost face this time.
Everyone: "..."
