Qing Feng and Mingyue had been making a fuss outside for quite some time, but Sha Chen had not responded. Just as they were furrowing their brows and about to return to ask their senior martial brothers for help, the gate of the Flowing Sand River Cave opened. Sha Chen had decided to meet them.
He had already confirmed that no one else was around. With the Six Ears of All Heavens, he could hear that Zhenyuanzi was extremely far away. It would take Zhenyuanzi some time to rush over.
Zhenyuanzi probably hadn't expected his disciples to be able to call me out, Sha Chen mused. If he had known, he wouldn't have bothered with all this trouble and would have come himself.
At that moment, Zhenyuanzi was unaware of this development and paid it no mind, simply waiting for his disciples to report back. He certainly hadn't expected Sha Chen to open the gate of the Flowing Sand River Cave.
