Chapter 296: Why They Came, a Sense of Crisis

"Fellow Daoist Red Fox, my apologies for the poor reception. May I ask what brings you here?"

As the host of this place, Helian Shiping asked in a measured tone.

"You're too kind, Fellow Daoist Helian. I just so happened to be passing by on some business and heard the commotion. I came over on a whim to see what all the excitement was about. I hope you all don't mind."

Venerable Red Fox said with a faint smile.

'Just passing by? Came over on a whim to see the excitement?'

'Who's he trying to fool!'

Helian Shiping, Huyan Sea, and He Daozhen couldn't help but scoff internally.

'Even though three Venerables were gathered here, they hadn't caused any real stir yet.'

'Venerable Red Fox probably arrived nearby long ago and had been waiting for who knows how long.'

'Seeing the three of them together, he must have worried about being late and decided to finally reveal himself.'

But that begged the question: why had Venerable Red Fox come here?
