"Muling Bing couldn't help but glance at Lan Qingyan, her clear eyes filled with a hint of reproach. She had wanted to stop all of this yesterday, but Lan Qingyan didn't let her. If something really happened to Bai Li Hongzhuang, she would never forgive Lan Qingyan.
Lan Qingyan's brows furrowed as well. He believed that Bai Li Hongzhuang had proposed such a thing because she had her own thoughts. However, the current situation was indeed beyond her expectations.
"Let's wait a little longer," Lan Qingyan said.
"What are we waiting for? We should find Yixuan now. There might still be a glimmer of hope!" Muling Bing couldn't help but feel anxious. She only had this one daughter, and after so many years, they had finally reunited. She couldn't accept losing Bai Li Hongzhuang!
"If we go in now, it's certain that Hongzhuang will lose," Mo Yunque's expression was complicated. He had an inexplicable trust in Bai Li Hongzhuang.
Even though Bai Li Hongzhuang had been at a disadvantage in the previous competition, he didn't believe that the situation would be so bad.
He had participated in the assessment competition together with Bai Li Hongzhuang and was very aware of her abilities.
The current situation was somewhat suspicious.
At this moment, Emperor Beichen spoke, "Uncle, Aunt, please calm down. Hongzhuang will be fine."
Others didn't understand Bai Li Hongzhuang's methods well enough, but Emperor Beichen did.
The existence of the Chaotic Ring alone meant that Bai Li Hongzhuang wouldn't easily fall. Moreover, if it really became that dangerous, the three contracted beasts would be unable to hold back.
The reason for the current silence must be that Bai Li Hongzhuang hadn't truly fallen into danger.
Hearing Emperor Beichen's confident words, Muling Bing hesitated and nodded.
She knew very well Emperor Beichen's feelings towards Bai Li Hongzhuang. If something really happened to Bai Li Hongzhuang, he would probably be the first person who couldn't restrain himself.
Blue Hongtai and the others also heard Emperor Beichen's words and maintained silence for a while, waiting to see if any other unexpected changes would occur.
After laughing triumphantly for a while, Lan Qingyan looked down at the competition stage. When she saw Muling Bing and the others still filled with hope and not giving up, she couldn't help but find it extremely amusing.
The situation had already developed to this point. Could Bai Li Hongzhuang still turn things around?
However, Muling Bing and the others were not in a hurry, and Lan Qingyan naturally wasn't either.
She was afraid that Muling Bing and the others would immediately save Bai Li Hongzhuang and start treating her. If Bai Li Hongzhuang survived, it would be extremely detrimental to her.
On the contrary, Bai Li Hongzhuang was severely injured now. As long as a little more time was wasted, the chances of her survival would be smaller. Why would Lan Qingyan mind waiting a little longer?
The atmosphere suddenly became eerie. The members of the Lan Family looked at Lan Hongtai and the others who were sitting still above, as well as Lan Qingyan who remained calm on the competition stage. They didn't understand what was happening.
But since even the Family Head hadn't spoken, they could only continue to watch.
After a while, Lan Qingyan couldn't contain her impatience and said, "Family Head, can we announce the result of this competition now?"
Lan Hongtai furrowed his brows slightly, his eyes flashing with a complex expression. He had no idea what Bai Li Hongzhuang was up to!
However, at that moment, a stunning aura suddenly burst out from beneath the ruins, startling everyone present."
