Why do I have the lowest fighting ability among the whole family?

The three of them immediately nodded to show that they understood, and then put the jade away properly. Only Yu Jiaojiao seemed a little out of sorts and did not pick up the jade. She only reacted after the sect leader called her.

"Ah, oh." Yu Jiaojiao took the jade and put it away in a panic, but she was still in a daze.

The sect leader had other things to be busy with, so the four of them took the jade and left.

Until she returned to the room, Yu Jiaojiao still looked distracted.

"Sister, what's going on with you?"

Pei Shao asked with a frown.

Yu Jiaojiao reacted and grabbed her sleeve tightly as if grasping a life-saving straw, her voice full of confusion and panic.

"Shao Shao—what to do, what to do..."

Pei Shao was a little confused. She pulled Yu Jiaojiao to sit down and patted her back to comfort her for a while. She waited until Yu Jiaojiao calmed down before asking, "What's wrong?"

"I...I saw...I saw..."

Yu Jiaojiao couldn't help shaking her head, her face full of pleading, and she kept repeating this sentence.

"Senior sister, what did you see?" Under Pei Shao's questioning, Yu Jiaojiao suddenly cried.

She choked up a little before answering Pei Shao's question.

"I saw it, Elder Huiyue Sect, he is not a human being——"

Pei Shao was startled by her words, but soon began to savor them carefully.

not human?
"Shao Shao." Yu Jiaojiao suddenly became serious and held her hand, her fingertips almost trembling with force.

"She is a demon, I saw it, he is a demon——"

In Yu Jiaojiao's intermittent words, Pei Shao slowly pieced together the whole story.

When the Huiyue Sect elder stepped down, his departure route happened to pass by Yu Jiaojiao.

But a gust of wind happened to blow up, blowing up the sleeves of his robe.

Although the Huiyue Sect elder quickly covered it again, Yu Jiaojiao still saw clearly with sharp eyes.

The part of the arm behind the Huiyue Sect elder's glove is not the blood-colored skin of a normal person at all, but is instead blue-purple.

The purple skin is a symbol of the demon clan.

"how is this possible?"

Pei Shao's first reaction was not to believe it.

After all, according to the timeline here, the demons were sealed underground thousands of years ago.

In the battle between immortals and demons thousands of years ago, the demons were sealed underground by the immortals and humans, and sealed with the blood of twelve immortals. All demon creatures were driven away from this land.

But as the Demon Clan was sealed, the Immortal Clan also disappeared.

Only practitioners who ascended in the Mahayana period could see the immortal side, but these ascended practitioners never appeared again.

Until now, the demon clan has become a legend just like the fairy clan.

But Yu Jiaojiao's expression really didn't look like she was lying.

"Shaoshao, I saw - his arms were blue and purple, and I also saw his blood, which was also purple -"

Yes, purple skin and purple blood are the symbols of the demon clan.

"Senior sister, are you sure you read it correctly?" Pei Shao held Yu Jiaojiao's shoulders and spoke in an extremely serious tone. From just now, Yu Jiaojiao said that the elder of Huiyue Sect did not look like an ordinary poison user.

Her original expectation was that this person was a medicine man puppet, but now she really didn't expect that he could actually be connected to the demon clan that had disappeared for thousands of years.

Yu Jiaojiao kept nodding her head, pleading in her voice, almost crying.

"I saw it, little junior sister, I saw it... He is a demon... He is a demon. Tell Master, he is a demon -"

Yu Jiaojiao was even a little incoherent.

Pei Shao didn't dare to ask her any more questions. After coaxing Yu Jiaojiao to sleep, he went to find his master.

Sure enough, after the sect leader heard the news, he accidentally knocked over the tea cup.

"Shaoshao, is what you said true? Jiaojiao really said that?"

After receiving Pei Shao's affirmative answer, the sect leader's expression gradually became serious.

Although Yu Jiaojiao is young, she has been under his disciples for several years.

He understands that Yu Jiaojiao is not the kind of person who talks nonsense. Although she is occasionally careless about small things, she is never careless about big things. For her to say it with such certainty is definitely something she has really seen and is really convinced of. .

"You go back and guard your senior sister first."

The sect master didn't have time to explain to Pei Shao in detail and gave her an order. He went to find the sect masters of the Saintess Sect and the Feixing Sect.

The three major sects already existed during the War between Immortals and Demons, and during that period, the three major sects were also very close allies with each other.

It's just that they were not the sect masters at that time. Later, after the ancestors ascended, the sects underwent reform and innovation again and again, and the three major sects became much weaker, and there were even minor frictions between them.

However, when it comes to major matters, the three major sects are still strong allies.

The sect master left in a hurry, and Pei Shao also realized that his cultivation was of no use. After listening to the sect master's words, he obediently went back to his room to accompany Yu Jiaojiao.

Yu Jiaojiao was lying on the bed, her eyes closed tightly, but she kept frowning, looking like she wasn't sleeping peacefully.

Pei Shao sat in front of her bed for a while, thinking that his wood spiritual power had the power to heal and soothe people's hearts, so he took Yu Jiaojiao's hand and transferred some spiritual power into her body.

Sure enough, Yu Jiaojiao quickly calmed down, and her face was not as ugly as before.

Pei Shao was relieved.

I don’t know what the outcome of the discussion between the three sect leaders was. When they woke up the next day, several disciples were told that they would not participate in the competition and would abstain directly.

Probably because the news about the demons could easily cause panic, the sect leader did not say the reason.

Although Bai Qingan and Lu Yan were confused, they reluctantly accepted it without asking any more questions.

The other two substitute disciples did not dare to speak, but Xu Yunsheng and Xu Yunhe brothers kept jumping up and down, looking very unconvinced.

"Sect Master! How can we not participate? Were you distracted by Elder Rong's injury yesterday?"

Xu Yunsheng spoke rudely and immediately criticized.

The sect leader was a little uncomfortable when he heard this, but he still explained: "I am doing this for your own good. Even if we are participating in this competition, if we encounter the Huiyue Sect and they use vicious methods, the result will be between me and the other two Together, the sect leaders of each sect..."

Before the sect leader could finish speaking, Xu Yunsheng immediately stopped him loudly with an angry look on his face.

"Sect Master! I think you are just too old and confused! You want to miss such a good opportunity! I think it will be difficult for Taoyun Sect to stand up in your hands in this life. You deserve to be trampled under the feet of Saintess Sect and Feixing Sect— —”

"That's enough!" Being scolded so mercilessly by his sect's disciples, the sect leader couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the two of them.

Seeing the sect leader's face as dark as the bottom of a pot, Xu Yunsheng realized that he had said the wrong thing and apologized to the sect leader.
