The gray-robed elder had not expected this. He had been toyed with by Ling Chuxi time and time again. This time, after Ling Chuxi escaped, he no longer let his guard down. He kept a close watch on his surroundings, afraid that Ling Chuxi would quietly return. He had seen Ling Chuxi's many tricks and did not dare to be as careless as before. However, he did not expect that under his careful vigilance, Ling Chuxi would actually still return. She had done so silently, without even him noticing.
The gray-robed elder and Yue Jianqing did not notice that not long after Ling Chuxi's figure disappeared, a small insect that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, carrying an ordinary-looking tree seed, quietly moved close to the ground and returned to the outside of the battle.
