However, things were different now. With the addition of Bing Wuqing, a Nascent Soul expert, the Snow Sword Faction had two Nascent Soul Old Monsters. Even if this top-notch combat force could not be compared to the four major sects and clans, it was undoubtedly one of the best among the ten minor sects and clans.
In the past, although the Snow Sword Faction's status was not bad, it did not have much say in the Middle Island Alliance. From now on, this rule would probably have to be changed.
"Yes, the patriarch's spirit is here, there is hope for our Snow Sword Faction to prosper!" Hong Qingyuan looked at the horizon, his eyes shining.
Even though the sudden rise of Bing Wuqing and Xue Jianfeng was a big problem for him, as long as he could handle them well, the strength of the entire Snow Sword Faction would definitely improve by leaps and bounds. How could Hong Qingyuan not have any ambitions to become a sect leader?
He had a premonition that the time for the Snow Sword Faction to flourish had come.
After leaving the Snow Sword Faction, Bing Wuqing drove the flying spirit beast straight to the north island. The person she was going to see was naturally Lin Yi.
Xue Jianfeng had already been crippled by him, and he had just said some harsh words in front of everyone in the Elders' Meeting. Before he left, he had specially reminded him. In his opinion, this was enough to complete the task that Lin Yi had given him before they parted. At least in the short term, no one in the Snow Sword Faction would dare to provoke Coold, unless that person was crazy.
Since Coold no longer had any worries, there was naturally no need for Bing Wuqing to stay in the Snow Sword Faction. People like Xue Jianfeng might enjoy the feeling of being the Highest Supreme Elder, but obviously, Bing Wuqing was not. She had no interest in this kind of thing. Now that she had successfully broken through to the Nascent Soul Realm, the first thing she had to do was to see Lin Yi, in addition to completing the task that Lin Yi had entrusted to her.
There were two reasons. The first was to show her loyalty.
It was all thanks to Lin Yi that he was able to become a Nascent Soul cultivator in such a short period of time. If it weren't for Lin Yi constantly giving him these top quality pills, then it would simply be unimaginable. Therefore, he had to express his heartfelt gratitude and show his loyalty to Lin Yi. Otherwise, if he became arrogant and thought that he was strong enough, then he wouldn't need to fear anyone anymore, then he would definitely die a miserable death.
Since Lin Yi could create him, he could naturally destroy him easily as well. Bing Wuqing's heart was as clear as a mirror. Don't forget that Lin Dongfang had personally planted a spell in his body.
The second reason was to ask Lin Yi about the next step of her mission. Lin Yi had spent so many top quality pills to make him a Nascent Soul Old Monster who stood at the top of the Immemorial Underworld. Bing Wuqing believed that it was not as simple as asking her to protect Coold. Intuition told her that Lin Yi must have a deeper reason for doing so, and it must be related to the core!
It was nothing in the past, but now that she had become a Nascent Soul Old Monster, every move she made was being watched. Bing Wuqing knew that she had to think carefully before she did anything, and most importantly, she had to figure out Lin Yi's attitude. Otherwise, if she accidentally went against Lin Yi's wishes, it would be an undeserved disaster.
Apart from that, Bing Wuqing actually had another selfish motive. She knew very well that only by behaving obediently would she be able to continue obtaining supreme-grade Golden Nascent Condensing Pills from Lin Yi. Although Nascent Soul Old Monsters were already standing at the pinnacle of the Immemorial Martial World, to her, the early Nascent Soul stage was just the beginning.
Following a freak like Lin Yi, Bing Wuqing never thought that the Nascent Soul Stage was the end. In fact, whether it was Lin Yi or the core, both were enough to completely overturn her previous view of the world. To quote a saying, her future goal must be the sea of stars, and the Nascent Soul Stage was just a starting point.
But then again, going to the north island so openly was equivalent to exposing his identity to some people, such as Xue Jianfeng, whom she had just taught a lesson to.
Of course, Bing Wuqing wasn't stupid. She had already weighed the pros and cons before she did this. In fact, the fact that she was Lin Yi's follower could no longer be kept a secret from the moment she successfully condensed her Nascent Soul. Even if she didn't go to the north island to meet Lin Yi, Xue Jianfeng and those people from the core could easily deduce that there was something fishy behind it. After all, the core didn't have the nature-defying technology that allowed her to condense her Nascent Soul so quickly.
In fact, as Bing Wuqing had expected, Xue Jianfeng was the first to realize that she was an expert of the Nascent Soul Stage. That was why he admitted defeat and retreated so decisively.
One had to know that Bing Wuqing, who was in the same camp, and Bing Wuqing, who was in the opposite camp, were two completely different things to Xue Jianfeng. The former usually wouldn't do anything to him, and he could still brace himself to save face, but the latter would really kill him.
Xue Jianfeng was arrogant and presumptuous, but he wasn't stupid at all. After realizing this inside story, he didn't hesitate to give up on trying to be brave, because that would definitely be courting death.
"Feng 'er, how's the injury on your leg?" After Xue Liping carried Xue Jianfeng back to the cave abode, he looked at his son's blood-soaked legs helplessly.
"I won't die …" Xue Jianfeng gritted his teeth and endured the intense pain. Bing Wuqing didn't kill him, but his legs were frozen. But this wasn't an ordinary freeze, it was an injury caused by the advanced version of Heartless Ice Force. It wasn't easy to treat the injury in a short period of time, and if it wasn't treated properly in time, it could easily leave indelible sequelae. His legs might even be disabled forever. This was a devastating blow to an expert of the Golden Core Perfected Realm who was determined to advance to the next level.
"This injury is no small matter. I'll call the people from the medical hall over for you," Xue Liping said after some thought.
"There's no need. The medical hall is filled with Chi Qianqiu's people, and now that Bing Wuqing is in power, those good-for-nothings won't do their best to treat my injuries. They might even do something behind the scenes!" Xue Jianfeng reached out to stop him. Actually, it wasn't that he didn't want to be treated, but he didn't want to be examined. If the poisonous gas in his body was found, it would be troublesome.
"Then what should we do? We can't just bear it like this, can we? " Xue Liping said with a frown. He had always been very concerned about this son of his. Now that Xue Jianfeng had suddenly become a Golden Core Perfected Realm expert, and his strength was a notch higher than his father's, he was naturally even more concerned.
"How about this, help me send a message to the people outside. They'll have a way to deal with this …" Xue Jianfeng said, enduring the pain.
"People outside? You mean … "Xue Liping was stunned.
