"Wait for me!"
Before Zhang Xuan could reach the passageway, he suddenly heard a shout below. Following which, a figure darted in his direction and grabbed onto his robe.
"Hu Yaoyao?" Zhang Xuan wondered speechlessly.
The person who had grabbed him was none other than the familiar face among the crowd, Hu Yaoyao!
"This friend over here, it's extremely dangerous to proceed any further than this. It would be best for you to remain behind!" Zhang Xuan said as he raised his palm, intending to send the young lady back to the ground.
Through his communication with the elder earlier, he had heard that there were not just Sempiternal realm Otherworldly Demons in the exteriors of the Temple of Confucius—it was very likely that there were Ancient Sages as well! It was an extremely treacherous place where he could not even guarantee his own safety. Considering how Hu Yaoyao was only a Saint 9-dan cultivator at the moment, it was practically suicide for her to enter as well!
In any case, he had disguised himself as someone else, so it was not as if Hu Yaoyao knew that it was him.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to make the move, he heard a voice speaking telepathically in his mind, "Zhang Xuan, if you dare throw me down, I'll run straight to your Zhang Clan and claim that you molested me and demand that you take responsibility for me!"
"Pu!" Zhang Xuan nearly fainted upon hearing those words. "How did you know it's me?"
He dared not claim that his disguise was flawless, but he was confident that even Ancient Sages would have difficulties trying to see through his disguise. Considering how Hu Yaoyao was only at Saint 9-dan pinnacle, how did she recognize him?
More importantly... she even threatened to wreak havoc at the Zhang Clan!
A similar conflict had happened back when they were still at the Hongyuan Master Teacher Academy, just that he was the one who claimed that he had been violated back then. This lass sure was vindictive, even remembering this matter after so long!
But considering Hu Yaoyao's personality... she was really capable of something like that!
Of course, it was not as if anyone would believe it, but just thinking of how embarrassing it would be for the head of the Three Premier Clans and the Sanctum of Sages, as well as a 9-star master teacher, to have a young lady running to his home and claiming that he had molested her... Even if no one would take it for real, his dignified reputation would be ripped apart!
More importantly, what if Luo Ruoxin heard of the matter?
Sighing deeply, Zhang Xuan shook his head and replied telepathically, "It's dangerous on the other side. Think it over carefully..."
"I want to go!" Hu Yaoyao insisted resolutely.
"Very well then!" Seeing that Hu Yaoyao was adamant, Zhang Xuan knew that he would not be able to shake her off.
Thus, he grabbed her and dashed into the spatial passageway.
Huala!
The two of them warped into two streaks of light as they dashed right through the spatial passageway. Barely an instant after they disappeared from sight, the spatial passageway dissipated, and the spatial restriction swiftly reformed itself.
