Let alone defeat him—facing Jiang Chengxuan, that cultivator didn't stand a chance. Accepting the duel would've only meant handing over another easy point to Jiang.
At this stage, Cloudveil Immortal Sect had all but secured victory in the competition. They were poised to gain half of the Golden Immortal insights—a reward of immense value.
Little wonder that Old Man Yunshi had already begun celebrating.
"Heh… One must repay the grace of a sovereign with loyalty. Ancestor Yun overpraises me," Jiang Chengxuan replied with a faint smile, finally allowing himself to relax a little.
Still, whether public or private, Jiang had no intention of turning down a share of those Golden Immortal insights. He wasn't about to pretend to be magnanimous.
Truthfully, even if Jiang were inclined to refuse, Old Man Yunshi would never pass up the chance to win him over—he'd insist on sharing a portion regardless.
