“Hiding your strength is also one of the strategies in competition,” Hong Fang remarked, and Gu Chaoyan nodded in agreement. She was pleased with Hong Fang’s awareness. Having achieved their breakthrough as martial artists in just a few days, they had no desire to return to show off. Instead, their plan was to emerge victorious. This mindset impressed Gu Chaoyan, although she hadn’t closely observed the disciples who seemed rushed. Nonetheless, she felt content with their progress. It was a stroke of fate.
Since they were well aware of what needed to be done, Gu Chaoyan saw no need to say anything further. “We are entering the Bai Clan now,” she began. “While the Bai Clan is a large clan, it has welcomed many people from various places over the years. Therefore, they are not xenophobic. Currently, there are many individuals from other regions at the Bai Clan who have come to exchange pills and magical weapons. If you go there, you won’t attract much attention,” Hong Fang explained.

“In the past, when Master, Sword One, and Lingyun went there, they made arrangements,” Hong Fang pondered, trying to figure out the specifics of their own arrangements. Since the four of them held relatively low statuses within the family, arranging for accommodations might prove somewhat troublesome.
Just then, Wu Zimo stepped forward and suggested, “Why don’t we go to our place? Ziming and I are brothers, and when we came of age, he gave us a small courtyard of our own. It may be small, but it’s sufficient to accommodate
Master, Sword One, and Miss Lingyun. Let’s go to Hongfang and Huarong’s After Wu Zimo finished speaking, Hong Fang found the suggestion feasible and nodded in agreement. It made sense; the Wu family was considered one of the larger families within the Bai Clan. Although Zimo and Ziming weren’t highly regarded within their own family, the Wu family’s size granted them a suitable small courtyard. It seemed like the best option for arranging accommodations.
Once the decision was made, they glanced at Gu Chaoyan, who nodded in approval. Hong Fang was known for his attention to detail, and if he believed it was possible, they were unlikely to encounter significant issues. They decided to follow his lead and let him handle the arrangements.
With everything settled, they set off towards the clan.
Consequently, their journey proceeded almost unimpeded until they reached the Bai Clan.

One of them carefully scrutinized them before casting a derisive glance at Gu Chaoyan, Sword One, and Lingyun, followed by a mocking laugh. Then, he turned his attention to the four of them as if he were witnessing a joke unfold before him. “Hong Fang, Wu Ziming, Wu Ziming, Fu Huarong,” he sneered. “The four of you have no talent for cultivation. It’s been years, and there’s been no improvement whatsoever. You’re quite skilled at deceiving a young girl.”
“However, what’s the use of a young lady without cultivation no matter how beautiful she is?”
“You are just useless together.”
“Also, weren’t you embarrassed to face the competition and escaped? Did you come back now to make everyone laugh at you?”
