The scene fell into silence as the commotion subsided.
In their understanding, Xiao Zhanyun was an untouchable figure, and anyone who dared to offend him would face unimaginable consequences.
Yet, they never dreamed that Wu Tian would not only resolve this crisis but also make Xiao Zhanyun leave in resentment.
This outcome was truly incredible.
Subsequently, Wu Tian said to Mo Xuantian, "Sect Master Mo, since I defeated Xiao Qilin, this match should be considered my victory, right?"
"Can you give me the immortal root now?"
Mo Xuantian nodded and said, "Of course. Although I don't know what you need the immortal root for, rules are rules, so take it."
With a wave of his hand, a ball of light shot out and landed in Wu Tian's palm.
As the immortal root settled, it marked the end of the Divine Doctor Sect's competition.
Mo Xuantian smiled at Wu Tian and said, "Youngster, for the Night God family to have someone like you, I believe Night God Soichiro can be proud."
"Furthermore, since you are from the Demon Slaying Palace, you should know the responsibility that rests on the shoulders of its members."
"I hope you will continue to cultivate and uphold righteousness by eliminating demons."
Wu Tian nodded, but his gaze turned somewhat peculiar. "This is what I should do. However, there is one more thing I must do."
"Although I don't know how long it will take, Sect Master Mo, please be prepared to receive me the next time I visit."
"Otherwise, it won't be a good thing."
"What did you say?" Mo Xuantian was completely bewildered by Wu Tian's words.
But Wu Tian didn't say anything more. He turned and walked out of the competition area, then approached Su Qiannai.
He smiled and said, "It seems I've done it. How about it, did I not disappoint you?"
Su Qiannai's beautiful eyes gazed at Wu Tian, but she remained silent, her expression peculiar.
Just as Wu Tian was about to ask, Su Qiannai reached out, grabbed him, and pulled him away.
Wu Tian was very confused by this action.
As they walked, he asked, "Hey, what are you doing? Where are you taking me?"
"Shut up," Su Qiannai said coldly. "Don't ask so many questions. Just follow me obediently."
Although Wu Tian didn't know what Su Qiannai was up to, he knew she wouldn't harm him.
So he could only follow her all the way, eventually entering a room.
Seeing Su Qiannai close the door, Wu Tian became even more confused.
He looked around the room. It was very tidy, and a faint floral scent permeated the air. It was clearly a boudoir.
"Is this your room?" Wu Tian asked in surprise. "No, why did you bring me to your room? This isn't something casual!"
Su Qiannai gazed at Wu Tian and said, "If it were anyone else, it would certainly not be a casual matter."
"But if it's you, why be so formal?"
Wu Tian felt a bit uneasy under Su Qiannai's gaze.
He didn't understand what she meant and avoided her eyes, saying, "You... what are you talking about?"
Su Qiannai moved gracefully, her waist swaying as she walked towards Wu Tian.
Her fair, jade-like arms gently wrapped around Wu Tian's neck, her beautiful eyes shimmering. She smiled and said, "Do you really not know what I'm talking about?"
"Wu Tian, do you think I wouldn't recognize you just because you're in disguise? You underestimate me too much, don't you?"
"Ah?!" Su Qiannai's words made Wu Tian's mind go blank.
He stammered, "No... how did you find out!"
Su Qiannai smiled and said, "It really is you. It seems my judgment was correct."
"But what were you thinking, coming here so suddenly?"
"Also, what's with your strength? The last time I saw you, you had just broken through to level nine, but now you're at the Immortal realm?"
Since his identity had been exposed by Su Qiannai, Wu Tian no longer tried to hide it.
He sighed, then sat on the bed with Su Qiannai, saying, "It's all because of your good best friend."
"Good best friend? You mean Yuriko?" This time it was Su Qiannai's turn to be surprised. "No, how do you know Yuriko? What happened during this time?"
Wu Tian said, "It's like this..."
Then, he told Su Qiannai everything that had happened since he met Night God Yuriko.
However, to avoid unnecessary trouble, he deliberately omitted the fact that he had slept with Night God Yuriko.
After listening to Wu Tian's account, Su Qiannai's eyes widened slightly.
She exclaimed, "So that's how it is. No wonder. To be honest, from the moment I first saw you, I sensed that you shouldn't be Yetian Yidao."
"At first, I didn't dare to believe you were Wu Tian, but the more I looked, the more you seemed like him. Now that I think about it, it's truly remarkable."
Wu Tian said, "That's not right. I trust the Thousand Faces Disguise technique."
"This disguise even fooled Mo Xuantian. How did you become suspicious?"
Su Qiannai said, "The most direct point is your personality. Yetian Yidao doesn't have your personality. It's normal for a person to change, but this change in personality is too drastic."
"Another point is that you told me your purpose for coming here was to prevent Yuriko from marrying Xiao Qilin, right?"
"But if it were Yetian Yidao, he would never say such a thing."
"Because although Yetian Yidao and Night God Yuriko are cousins, their relationship is actually not close."
"Otherwise, Night God Yuriko wouldn't have used this method to lock up Yetian Yidao and let you participate in the competition."
"Therefore, I absolutely cannot believe that you came here for Night God Yuriko."
Hearing this, Wu Tian finally understood.
So, his disguised "brotherly concern" was something that could never exist!
This was all Yuriko's fault. How could she not tell him something so important earlier?
