Chapter 1732: Chapter 1732: Do You Have to Be So Cruel?

So, it would be truly strange if Zhan Beiye didn’t show up.

An Jiuyue couldn’t help but laugh, feeling that Qian Jiyun had exaggerated a bit.

“If he knew you described him like this, he’d definitely be angry with you,” she said.

“Being angry with me, that’s just the kind of temperament he has,” Qian Jiyun continued.

“Then I’ll contact him later and ask,” An Jiuyue said.

She thought that Zhan Beiye was indeed the type to join in the fun; they might as well wait here and then go find the Qingyun Sect together, which would be more imposing.

That way, when borrowing the Heart-protecting Jade from the Qingyun Sect, wouldn’t it make them submit faster?

…

Three days later, the Qingyun Sect’s Flame Competition began, which coincidentally was the same day Zhan Beiye and Su Tang arrived with their crew.

Seeing the multitudes of people at the Qingyun Sect, they all had sweat drops on their foreheads.

“The timing of this event couldn’t have been better,” Zhan Beiye commented as he raised his hand to his forehead, suspicious that the Qingyun Sect had deliberately chosen this day for the event.

But then again, gathering people from all over the world here couldn’t happen in just one or two months; this Flame Competition must have been planned long ago.

It seemed that their arrival was just a fortunate coincidence, happening to coincide with this Flame Competition.

“I thought I could directly enter the Flame Mountain Range upon arrival, but unexpectedly, I still have to compete.” With so many people, he felt he had no chance.

“Qian Jiyun, An Jiuyue, are you also going to participate in the competition?”

“I’m not going.”

An Jiuyue immediately shook her head; how could she possibly compete?

“It’s enough for Qian Jiyun to go by himself, one person can account for a whole group of people.”

“Indeed.”

Zhan Beiye glanced at Qian Jiyun and nodded in agreement.

He had also heard Su Tang mention on the way that the winner of the competition could bring two people with them. If that was the case, then it was sufficient for Qian Jiyun to compete alone, and he could also sneak in a spot to enter the Flame Mountain Range, couldn’t he?

But his dreams were too idealistic, as he saw Qian Jiyun raise his eyebrows and look at him.

“You want to go in?”

“Of course, I came here for the Flame Mountain Range after all, Yan said there are a lot of alchemical materials there, and I just need to gather some.”

Zhan Beiye spoke as if it were obvious. He still lacked a good weapon, and now was a perfect chance to find the materials. Plus, with Qian Jiyun and the others, they could even help transport them back to Huayan Peak. Why wouldn’t he be willing?

“Then find a way yourself,” Qian Jiyun said bluntly.

Zhan Beiye: “…”

Did he not want to bring him along as an extra burden?

But he wasn’t really a burden, right? It was just that he didn’t want his cultivation level to rise too quickly. What was wrong with that?

“Qian Jiyun, you don’t have to be so ruthless, do you? What’s wrong with taking me with you? It doesn’t even take a fraction of your energy, and besides, it’s good to have someone to watch each other’s backs if we go in together, isn’t it?”

Hearing this, Qian Jiyun looked at Zhan Beiye helplessly and shook his head.

Never afraid of causing a commotion, now he was looking for an easy way out. He didn’t believe that a trip to the Flame Mountain Range could possibly cause Zhan Beiye’s cultivation level to skyrocket.

“Let’s head up the mountain first,” he said.

“Right, right, let’s go up first. You wanted to get that Heart-protecting Jade, right? This is the perfect opportunity to claim it,” Zhan Beiye added.

An Jiuyue: “…”

His words made it sound as if they were bandits, set on stealing something.

“Brother Beiye, we’re just borrowing it, and we will return it in the future,” she explained.

“Alright then, we’ll return it. It’s just a loan, I misspoke,” Zhan Beiye said, touching his nose and smiling.
