After realizing that nobody cared about her presence, Lan Qingyan led her team to the depths of the hall. At this moment, all she wanted was some peace and for everyone to disappear from her sight.
On the other hand, Ouyang Yitian also took his team to another area. As he had anticipated, Bai Li Hongzhuang's target was Lan Qingyan, and he had no connection to that conflict. It would be unwise for him to involve himself for the sake of someone like Lan Qingyan.
"Madam, have you been staying here since you came out?" Emperor Beichen asked, showing concern about the current situation after resolving the turmoil involving Lan Qingyan.
Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly, "Since the competition ended, everyone has gathered here. The surroundings are sealed, and there is no way out. I believe we have to wait until everyone comes out before any further tests or challenges are presented because the time for the Battle of Supremacy has not yet arrived."
Upon hearing Bai Li Hongzhuang's words, Wen Ziran and the others gained a better understanding of the situation. What Bai Li Hongzhuang said made sense.
"If nothing unexpected happens, Mo Yunjue and I should be the last ones to come out," Emperor Beichen said, his profound eyes filled with contemplation. Since the time for the Battle of Supremacy had not arrived, there must be other things waiting for them.
In the past, the Battle of Supremacy had never ended ahead of schedule. They had only completed half of it so far.
Everyone couldn't help but ponder. Now that everyone had come out, why hadn't there been any changes in the hall?
However, just as they were contemplating, a fluctuation suddenly emanated from the depths of the hall.
Upon seeing this, everyone became alert. It seemed that they would soon find out what was going to happen next.
As the hall trembled, resembling an earthquake, the sensation they experienced earlier returned. Fortunately, after going through the previous incident, they no longer felt the same level of nervousness. Instead, they observed the distance, trying to figure out what was happening.
However, the intensity of the subsequent tremor far exceeded everyone's expectations. The depths of the hall collapsed with a loud crash, and debris continuously fell down, resembling a catastrophe that could engulf them at any moment.
Some cultivators with weaker mental fortitude couldn't help but scream. Everyone struggled to stabilize themselves since it was impossible to understand the situation in such circumstances.
Emperor Beichen pressed Bai Li Hongzhuang against the wall, holding her in his arms, ensuring that she wouldn't be harmed.
"Are you afraid, my lady?" Emperor Beichen asked, looking concerned at Bai Li Hongzhuang in his embrace.
Bai Li Hongzhuang smiled lightly and shook her head, "As long as I have you by my side, I'm not afraid."
In Emperor Beichen's embrace, she felt an indescribable sense of security. Even if the sky were to collapse, she would face it calmly.
Lan Qingyan, who was originally in the depths of the hall, didn't expect such an incident to occur. Startled, she ran out, only to witness the tender scene between Emperor Beichen and Bai Li Hongzhuang, triggering a strong sense of jealousy and resentment within her.
That detestable woman, Bai Li Hongzhuang, why did she get to enjoy everything? Emperor Beichen's genuine care and doting stabbed at her eyes, intensifying her anger.
She vowed to kill Bai Li Hongzhuang and put an end to their happiness.
After a moment of turbulence, the entire hall finally regained its calmness.
