Daoist Venerable Lin Jing was full of confidence, but unfortunately, he could not convince others in the sect.
They thought the Sect Leader had truly lost his mind.
Otherwise, how could he place his hope on a Celestial Venerable, and be so unwavering in his determination?
In the following days, even more troubling events unfolded.
The departure of Daoist Venerable Ao Xiao and Daoist Venerable Silver Quan left the other visiting Supremes with no confidence.
They felt that the Mowu Sect was doomed to lose this time.
Perhaps they'd even end up being splattered with blood themselves.
Thus, many people bid farewell and left even before the day of the challenge arrived.
The two other Daoist Venerables who had originally agreed to help also found random excuses to refuse to join.
This secretly delighted Daoist Venerable Lin Jing.
The fewer people who came, the better, lest he had to pay them; now all expenses were saved.
