Chapter 322 Rejection The group from Wangqing Valley were using their magic eyes to closely watch the reactions of Shi Chun and the others. Jin Hao, who had an ugly scar on his face and was in charge of guarding the surroundings, suddenly warned, "Oh no, the people from the Jihuo Sect are coming." Hearing this, Wu Shanshan, who had no ears, and Lin Yuefang, who had no nose, both turned their heads and looked in the direction he pointed. They saw a group of people who had just arrived in the night sky. A closer look under the starlight revealed their origins from their clothing. Moreover, they had already paid attention to the disciples of the top-ranked major sects. What is easier to confirm is the number of people. There are hundreds of people in the team, but there are only three of all the participating sects, so it is difficult to admit their mistakes. Yin Tianlu, the leader of Jihuo Sect, had a majestic look. He glanced at the scene and waved his hand to signal. Immediately, someone went to find people from other sects nearby to question them in order to find out what was going on at the scene. Given the status and position of the Jihuo Sect, it was a harmless matter so naturally the disciples of smaller sects would give it some face, and soon someone came to report the current situation there. The black tiger standing behind Yin Tianlu had a strong physique and listened to the situation report with sparkling eyes, hiding behind people and keeping a low profile. In fact, he is the protagonist of this trip of the Jihuo Sect. It is only because he possesses the top-secret ability to find the sacred fire that he cannot publicize it. Therefore, the capable Yin Tianlu is pushed to the front by the Jihuo Sect as a cover. Wu Shanshan, who was staring at them, glanced at Shi Chun again and said in a deep voice, "This is troublesome. The Jihuo Sect came all the way to the forbidden area, probably because they are looking for the method of the divine fire from Shi Chun and his group." Apart from this possibility, they couldn't think of any other possibility.

Lin Yuefang asked: "What should we do?" Wu Shanshan thought for a moment and said, "It may not be a bad thing. We have a good relationship with Shi Chun because we exchanged magic tools for divine fire. We can have a say. Before, they had the partnership with Shu Dao Mountain. If we went to them for cooperation, they might not think highly of us, and Shu Dao Mountain might not look at us in the right way. Now that there is pressure from Ji Huo Sect, the situation must be different. Among these sects, there are probably not many who are not afraid of Ji Huo Sect and dare to cooperate with Shi Chun and his group under the current circumstances." Lin Yuefang praised, "That's right. The rumors about Shu Daoshan's loss of strength are most likely true. We can see from following along that Shu Daoshan's troops are nearly half gone, while Jihuo Sect has a hundred men in full force. This is a good opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation." There was no need to hesitate. With a direction and strategy in hand, the three of them acted immediately. After briefly explaining things to the other disciples, they left the team and flew directly towards Shi Chun without taking anyone else with them. The group of people from Shudao Mountain were not just for show. When they saw someone breaking in, someone immediately stopped them from a distance. After the two sides communicated and heard that the person was Shi Chun's acquaintance, Gu Lianni naturally went to the top of the mountain and brought her two nephews to disturb the world of Shi Chun and Zhen'er. "Someone is looking for you..." Gu Lianni explained the situation with a cold snort, and while speaking, she provoked Shi Chun with a contemptuous look, as if to say, how could you bully a stupid person and take advantage of a girl? Shi Chun didn't care anymore. She still kept one hand on Zhen'er's soft waist to show her intimacy. Anyway, she had told Zhen'er everything she needed to know. Of course, in order to make Zhen'er obedient, I gave her these instructions in the name of "love", and Zhen'er seemed to have been coaxed into remembering them firmly. What could be the reason for the people from Wangqing Valley to come? You can guess it with your heels. Just like all the entangled sects, according to the rumors, they are definitely here for the Divine Fire. There is no possibility of exchanging the magic weapon back. If they really came to exchange, they would not have followed me all the way. I am not blind and I would have discovered it long ago. He wanted to see what the people from Wangqing Valley were up to and what they wanted to do to get the people from Shudao Mountain to release the three women. After the three girls landed, they subconsciously took a closer look at Zhen'er, wanting to see what kind of beauty she was that could make Shi Chun lose his composure in public without any sense of propriety or shame. Upon closer inspection, they are indeed beautiful, and even they themselves have to admit that they have a unique charm. However, deep down they feel that they may not be as beautiful as they are when their looks are intact. Now that she was here, she had to find out. After Wu Shanshan collected her thoughts, she stared at Zhen'er and asked with a smile, "Brother Chun, may I ask, who is this person?" Shi Chun refused to answer. It was one thing for everyone to see it, but whether he admitted it or not was another. He did not want to spread the word that Zhen'er was his woman, so he changed the subject and asked, "I'm talking about your business. Are you here to get your magic weapon back?" Seeing this, Wu Jinliang also flew over. Wu Shanshan didn't want to talk nonsense. She knew that once the people of Jihuo Sect knew the details, the situation would get out of control at any time, so she got straight to the point and said, "The people of Jihuo Sect are here. I don't need to say who they are coming for, right?" As he spoke, he pointed at the shadowy figures of the Jihuo Sect.

Without her saying anything, Gu Lianni had already discovered it. However, from a mental point of view, Gu Lianni did not take the Jihuo Sect too seriously. This is the gap between the second and fourth place in the weapon refining world. In fact, Shudao Mountain was the largest sect in the weapon refining world before. Unfortunately, Situ Gu emerged in Liantian Sect. After Situ Gu's sudden rise, he also raised Liantian Sect to another level, forcing Shudao Mountain to take second place. Becoming second has a huge impact. For some things or interests, even recruiting talents, people will always rush to the first place. Under the influence of various aspects of resource structure, the strength gradually showed a trend of one side growing while the other side declining, so the second one really gradually became the real second in all aspects, so the disciples of Shudao Mountain always liked to say that they missed the past. The Jihuo Sect came? Shi Chun really didn't notice it. He looked at it, but the distance was too far to see clearly, so he subconsciously looked at Gu Lianni to confirm. The latter nodded slightly, but couldn't help but said with a hint of sarcasm: "Seeing you two are being affectionate, it's not good to disturb you." So I didn’t mean to tell you. Having worked together for such a long time, Shi Chun would not take such a mockery seriously. He was just a little surprised that this woman would insult him, a partner, in front of outsiders. He glanced at Gu Lianni and then returned his gaze to Wu Shanshan's face, "Thank you for your concern. Tell me about your own business." The three leaders of Wang Qing Valley exchanged glances, and Wu Shanshan got straight to the point: "The Jihuo Sect is coming aggressively, and our things are still in your hands. We don't want you to get into trouble, so we are willing to work together with both of you to overcome the crisis." There is such a good thing? Shi Chun was naturally happy. Zhen'er, who was standing close to her, tilted her head slightly, trying to understand what they were talking about. Without waiting for Shi Chun to speak, Gu Lianni sneered and mocked Shi Chun: "Who is this? She is rushing to help you. Is she your old lover?" Shi Chun was surprised again and found that this woman spoke in a sarcastic tone today. The faces of the three people in Wangqing Valley suddenly darkened, and Wu Shanshan said in a deep voice: "Miss Gu, please be respectful!" Their backgrounds are there. It is the ancestral precept of Wangqing Valley not to engage in romantic relationships between men and women. It is a rule that must be strictly observed. Gu Lianni's words are tantamount to humiliating them. Hearing this, Gu Lianni snorted coldly, "So, Wu Yu Wu Qiu, are you here to help for nothing?" Wu Shanshan pursed her lips and said, "We are all sensible people. There is no need to beat around the bush. Beating around the bush is insulting. It is too dangerous to confront the Jihuo Sect. We can't explain to our fellow disciples if they help us for nothing. Since we are cooperating, we will naturally share the benefits. When everyone finds the divine fire, Wangqing Valley will also have a share." Gu Lianni snorted and directly refused: "I appreciate your kindness, but it's not necessary. Please go back." Wu Shanshan had to remind them, “Shudao Mountain’s strength has been greatly damaged, and Jihuo Sect has a large number of people. Once Jihuo Sect raises its arms and calls for action, I’m afraid those sneaky sects nearby will not be willing to be left out. To be honest, there are probably not many sects willing to take the risk of sharing honor and disgrace with you at this time.” Seeing that the other party didn't understand what she was saying, Gu Lianni rejected him rudely this time, "Forget Love Valley is nothing, how dare you pretend to discuss cooperation in front of me, Shu Dao Mountain? Get lost!" She didn't know the evil identity hidden in the Valley of Forgetfulness, so she really looked down on the Valley of Forgetfulness. The faces of the three leaders of Wangqing Valley suddenly turned ugly, and some of them even had gloom flashing in their eyes, looking at Gu Lianni as if she were a dead person. Wu Jinliang was grinning and chuckling nearby. Everyone who heard it had different feelings, and they all felt that the laugh was biased towards their side. Wu Shanshan immediately stared at Shi Chun, wanting to ask what Shi Chun meant, but Gu Lianni said bluntly: "It's useless for you to look at him. I have the final say here. If you don't get out of here, don't blame me for being rude!" Having said that, the three ladies from Wangqing Valley could only flee, returning empty-handed. Shi Chun was about to reach out to ask him to stay, but Gu Lianni turned her head and stared at him coldly. The latter said coldly: "Why, are you going to slap me in the face in public?" She just said that she has the final say here. Shi Chun was speechless, so he had to put down his hand. He didn't make the decision on his own and tried to persuade the other party first. He smiled bitterly, "It's not that serious. Someone took the initiative to come to us to cooperate. Isn't this a good thing? Cooperation is about negotiating conditions. It's totally unnecessary to drive people away without even discussing it."

Pang Hou raised his eyebrows and said, "Brother Chun, they are here for our divine fire. They have made it clear themselves. You can understand it, right?" Yuan Yao also nodded. Shi Chun rolled his eyes slightly, feeling that these people were a little confused, and sighed, "Isn't this quite normal? Aren't those who come here all for the divine fire? If they come for our divine fire, we must be able to find it, right? Even if we find it occasionally, we have to focus on ourselves first. Not to mention that the clues to find the sacred fire are almost gone, with the current entanglement, do you think we can still find the sacred fire smoothly? If they want us to find the sacred fire with peace of mind, then yes, no problem, at least they have to help us deal with this trouble first. If someone is willing to help us fight, the more helpers the better. I wish all the factions were our allies. We finally came to the Valley of Forgetfulness, which just reminded us that we can do this. We don't have to run around. At least we have one more option. If this one doesn't work, we can always try another one. But you guys just drove them away without saying anything." "..." Gu Lianni and the other two fell silent at the same time, some in deep thought, some frowning, and some in a daze. “Hehehehe.” With a sly smile, Wu Jinliang stared at the movements in Wangqing Valley and said, “Look, they are also trying to change their tactics and heading to Jihuo Sect instead. That’s why there was such a commotion.” (End of this chapter)
