Hearing what Han Zhi said, Duan Guzhou couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and then he patted the armrest and said in a deep voice: "It's possible, very possible."

"I think that kid just stayed on the ninth floor to delay time to avoid punishment."

"So, I propose that we work together to forcefully open the secret realm and capture that kid."

Duan Guzhou said loudly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but change their expressions.

Under normal circumstances, after opening this secret realm of Xuan Kong Valley, one can only wait for the people inside to crush the jade slips and exit.

But in order to prepare for unexpected situations, there are still some additional measures.

As long as the four masters work together and use special means, they can forcefully open the secret realm.

However, in recent decades, there has been no need to use such means.

Now, in order to punish Chen Fei, Duan Guzhou actually proposed to forcefully open the secret realm, which naturally surprised everyone.

Of course, after Zou Dukong heard this, he immediately expressed his opposition, "No, absolutely not."

"Why not?"

Duan Guzhou looked over.

Zou Dukong said coldly, "The secret realm is forced to be opened because the people in the secret realm are in great danger, or some huge accident has occurred.

In this situation, there is no need to force the secret realm to be opened."

"That kid deliberately delayed time and hid inside to avoid punishment."

Duan Guzhou said, "Could it be that so many of us are waiting for him?"

"That's just Han Zhi's guess. None of us know what Chen Fei is doing."

Zou Dukong said, "Maybe he is comprehending the martial spirit?"

"Understanding the martial spirit?

Huh, is it possible?

No movement for four or five hours!”

Duan Guzhou said.

Zou Dukong was unceremonious, "There has been no movement for four or five hours. Isn't this normal?

Master Duan must have forgotten that when you first realized the martial intention, it took you three full days to realize the martial intention.

It’s only been four or five hours now, why are you in a hurry!”

"Zou Dukong, you—" Duan Guzhou's expression darkened, and his face looked a little confused.

Zou Dukong deliberately mentioned the time when he realized martial arts, and he said it under such circumstances.

Wouldn't this be in contrast to Chen Fei, saying that Duan Guzhou is far inferior to Chen Fei, which puts Duan Guzhou's face where he can.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Duan Guzhou's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You don't have to worry now, but if it takes another four or five hours, or four or five days, or even four or five months, that kid will still be able to hide.

Woolen cloth?

Is it possible that we still can't touch him and still have to wait for him here?"

"It won't be like that, Chen Fei is not that kind of person."

Zou crossed the empty road.

"Whether he is that kind of person is not up to you."

Duan Guzhou said, "I just want to ask, if that kind of thing really happens, what do you think Master Zou should do?"

"I, I—" Zou Dukong also frowned.

On the side, Master Ji Ling said "Amitabha" and clasped his hands together: "You two don't need to argue. I think it's better to do this.

One day, we will give Chen Fei one more day, and if he still doesn’t come out, we will forcefully open the secret realm and take him out.”

"One day is too short."

Zou crossed the empty road.

Master Ji Ling said: "Master Zou, this is the secret realm of Xuankong Valley, not a place outside the outside world. One day is enough.

After all, the previous eight floors only took a few hours."

"Besides, no one has ever been to the ninth floor before.

We don’t know how much pressure there is and what kind of danger there is.”

"If Chen Fei stays in there for too long, an accident is very likely to happen. I don't think Master Zou wants to see that kind of situation!"

Zou Dukong was unable to refute these words and could only nod his head and said, "Master Ji Ling is right."

Master Ji Ling nodded, glanced at Duan Guzhou again, received the other party's confirmation, and then said: "In that case, it's settled.

From now on, if you wait another day, if Chen Fei still doesn't come out, we will forcefully open the secret realm."

The sound spread throughout the room and was heard by everyone present.

For a moment, there was a roar of discussion in the crowd.

Immediately, Duan Guzhou stood up and said, "In that case, I won't waste my time here."

After saying that, he walked away.

Others also left one after another.

After all, these high-level sects don’t have that much free time to wait here.

At Shuijing, we only need to arrange a few disciples to take turns on duty.

After watching the senior officials leave, the ordinary disciples slowly dispersed along with the roar of discussion.

Du Wuxuan, Han Zhi, Huikong, Hui Bao and others were also among the crowd, chatting and walking away.

Behind him, Shan Yumeng looked at their leaving figures, his expression suddenly changed, and he couldn't help but rush forward, wanting to ask what they were thinking and why they wanted to slander Chen Fei.

However, just as she was taking action, an invisible breath of true energy came from behind, pulling Shan Yumeng back.

"Master, what are you-" Shan Yumeng looked at Master Zhan Biyun who suddenly appeared behind him in surprise.

Zhan Biyun looked at his apprentice and said, "Are you going to question Chen Fei?"

Shan Yumeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded and looked at Master, "Master, I don't understand. They have no enmity with Chen Fei, so why do they want to slander Chen Fei?"

Zhan Biyun looked at his disciple, sighed softly, and said: "Don't tell me the truth about this matter.

Even if what you said is true, but now, Chen Fei hasn't come out yet, there is no evidence.

Do you think your questioning will be fruitful?"

"But, I can't-" Shan Yumeng was speechless for a moment.

"It seems that having you practice with me for so many years has left you too lacking in tempering!"

Zhan Biyun sighed softly, "This world is much more complicated than you think. Even if there is no injustice or hatred, as long as there are interests, anything will happen."

"Besides, there are some things that you simply can't explain clearly."

“In the final analysis, this world is still a world where strength speaks for itself.

If you don’t have the strength, even if you are reasonable, what can you do?”

This was the first time Shan Yumeng heard such cruel and realistic words from his master, and he was stunned for a moment.

Zhan Biyun looked at his disciple and said, "I know you may not understand it now.

But what I want to tell you is that the only thing you have to do now is to enhance your own strength. Only in this way can you have a greater say and let more people trust you."

After a moment of silence, Shan Yumeng nodded, "Master, I understand. Thank you for your teaching."

"Well, as long as you understand.

This time in Xuan Kong Valley, you will gain a lot, so you must seize the opportunity and practice well."

Zhan Biyun instructed.

"Yes, Master!"
