Bab 136: Saving the disciples.

The Grand Elder stood high above the ground, his lips pressed into a thin line. He listened to every word, and once Li Jun had told him what had happened, he remained silent, looking off into the distance. 

"A challenger has appeared." He muttered.

Master Zhu and Li Jun shared a look of confusion at his sudden announcement, but neither of them questioned him. 

"I wish I could tell you what I know," the Grand Elder said. "However, I have been sworn to secrecy." 

Li Jun stared at his Master as the old man glanced down at him and smiled. 

"It will be fine. We just need to focus on getting our disciples out of there before any harm comes to them. Master Zhu, call the inner court disciples. We will need as many hands as possible to make sure our disciples make it out safely."

"Yes, Grand Elder." She bowed her head and fluttered down to the ground to let the other outer court sect masters know what was happening.
