The cultivators from the Wuji Palace were shocked as they looked at Bai Li Hongzhuang, unable to believe that their Young Palace Lord could be so domineering. After all, the person she was confronting was none other than Lan Qingyan from the Lan Clan.
Even the Palace Master had shown disinterest when dealing with the Lan Clan, but they never expected their Young Palace Lord to directly confront them head-on. It seemed like there was some destined arrangement between their Young Palace Lord and Lan Qingyan, as they had been at odds with each other since their first meeting. The animosity between them seemed to be growing deeper with no signs of reconciliation.
Shang Guanyingying and Gu Zhiqin were also dumbfounded. Shang Guanyingying had always considered herself to have a hot temper and never willing to back down. However, the wife of Emperor Beichen, who usually appeared gentle, unexpectedly displayed even more dominance at this moment. To demand an apology from Lan Qingyan... Lan Qingyan probably never imagined such a request.
The moment Lan Qingyan heard Bai Li Hongzhuang's demand, she exploded with anger. "Bai Li Hongzhuang, you've gone too far! Even if we really fight, you won't gain any advantage. Your request is simply impossible!"
Lan Qingyan's face turned pale, she was being infuriated. Even if she died here today, she would never let Bai Li Hongzhuang humiliate her like this!
Ouyang Yitian's expression turned gloomy. Bai Li Hongzhuang's actions were equivalent to rejecting his request and using it to humiliate Lan Qingyan. He couldn't help but feel puzzled. Bai Li Hongzhuang and Lan Qingyan had only met during this Battle for Supremacy, so why did their conflict run so deep, as if they had a long-standing grudge?
If it were an ordinary situation, even if there were conflicts between two parties, it wouldn't escalate to the point of no return.
Facing Lan Qingyan's furious and hateful gaze, Bai Li Hongzhuang remained calm and composed, to a terrifying extent. She shrugged her shoulders mockingly and said, "Since you're unwilling, then there's no need for further negotiations. Let's just fight!"
As her words fell, Bai Li Hongzhuang took out her Lulijian (琉璃剑) directly, clearly indicating that she intended to confront Lan Qingyan head-on.
At this moment, everyone understood that Bai Li Hongzhuang had never intended to spare Lan Qingyan from the beginning. She wanted to directly confront her.
Lan Qingyan turned her head to look at Ouyang Yitian, realizing that she had no room to retreat anymore. If she really apologized, she would never be able to raise her head in front of Bai Li Hongzhuang again. It would not only damage her own dignity but also bring shame to the entire Lan Clan.
Ouyang Yitian was also hesitant. Although the relationship between the Ouyang Clan and the Lan Clan was good, he couldn't risk his life for Lan Qingyan. However, if he abandoned her at this moment, it would be equivalent to sending her to her death.
Just then, the barrier gate shimmered once again, drawing everyone's attention. They wondered who was coming. If a team willing to help Lan Qingyan and the others appeared, the situation would change once again.
However, when Lan Qingyan and Ouyang Yitian saw the newcomers, their faces turned ashen. It was the team from the Shitian Tower!
