Seeing PEI Ling bring the wolf King to look for Lu Xuan, the supervising Hall Master nodded his head slightly.
Knowing that Lu Xuan's current cultivation would threaten his ranking, he seized every opportunity to kill him.
On the other hand, before the outer sect competition began, Lu Xuan, who had the highest chance of winning, had a very average performance. In fact, it could even be said that his performance was disappointing.
Not only did he fight to a draw with PEI Ling who was at the ninth level of the Qi refining stage, he also knew that PEI Ling had a foundation building demonic beast by his side. Yet, he did not escape quickly and instead stayed in the territory of the ghastly peach demon to rest and reorganize, which resulted in him being found by PEI Ling.
