When Jiang Che returned to the Yunhai Courtyard disciples, he was instantly surrounded by his excited peers.
"Senior Brother Jiang! You're amazing!"
"Yeah! Even though you lost, you still brought great honor to our Yunhai Courtyard!"
Xu Qingshan also walked over, his face filled with a gratified smile. He clapped him hard on the shoulder. "Jiang Che, well done!"
Jiang Che smiled as well.
Although he hadn't managed to defeat Gu Qingxuan.
He could feel that after this battle,
it would no longer be so easy for Xie Songnian to make a move against him!
'The strength I've shown should be enough to sway the upper echelons...'
But if even this wasn't enough, then his only option would be to flee far away.
He glanced at Sect Leader Xu Zhouzi, who was up on the high platform.
He was surprised to see the man give him a small smile.
Jiang Che hurriedly bowed in his direction from afar.
His heart finally settled.
