The cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion was attracted by the lightning tribulation and tried to snatch Linglong's wine cauldron. Lu Ping did not say a word. Although Chi Lianying was annoyed and amused at the same time, she strangely did not resent the cultivator's actions. On the contrary, she understood the actions of Flowing Cloud Pavilion to a great extent.
Chi Lianying herself was a bandit and had made a name for herself in the Perished Land. If she were in the shoes of the cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion, she would have made the same decision to snatch Linglong's wine cauldron.
In fact, from Chi Lianying's point of view, this mid Dharma adept from Flowing Cloud Pavilion had insisted that Linglong did not belong to Chi Lianying, but had attracted the lightning tribulation because the treasure had been unearthed. This behavior was simply too honest. If it had been her, she would have directly claimed that the treasure belonged to Flowing Cloud Pavilion and they could have just fought over it. There was no need to cover things up and leave room for argument. Even the treasure had been unearthed by itself.
Chi Lianying's beautiful eyes darted around as she waved at Linglong and said, "Linglong, come here!"
Linglong, who had not yet recovered from the lightning tribulation, was still in a daze and did not know what had happened. When she heard Chi Lianying's call, she stood up and walked shakily to Chi Lianying.
Chi Lianying looked at the cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion at the mouth of the valley and laughed mockingly. "You said that the treasure had been unearthed by itself. How is it that the spirit of the item is so familiar with me?"
Long before Linglong had walked behind Chi Lianying in a daze, the face of the cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion at the mouth of the valley had already turned red.
This mid Dharma adept was one of the most outstanding disciples of the third generation of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion. It was just that he, who had grown up under the protection of the sect, had not experienced much of the trials and tribulations of the world of practice. He was completely unable to be as cunning as the older adepts who had been through many hardships.
However, at this point, it was enough for the disciple from Flowing Cloud Pavilion to fly into a rage out of humiliation. This could be considered as Chi Lianying helping the disciple from Flowing Cloud Pavilion take the step from a rookie to a veteran.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame my Flowing Cloud Pavilion for bullying you!"
Chi Lianying clapped his hands and laughed, "That's more like it! Otherwise, how could they be so domineering? But if you want to snatch this treasure, you have to ask the owner of the treasure first! "
The cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion was stunned. He looked at the direction Chi Lianying was pointing at and saw that the so-called target was just a Blood Condensation Realm cultivator, Minor Repairs. How could he not know that Chi Lianying was just making fun of him?
The face of the Flowing Cloud Hall cultivator sank. "You're messing with me? Since you fellows want to die, I might as well grant your wish."
At this moment, Lu Ping suddenly asked, "Who is Yun Tian to you?"
The cultivator from Flowing Cloud Pavilion, who had just gathered his strength, was taken aback, but he still answered, "Yun Tian Laozu is my Martial Uncle."
However, the disciple from Flowing Cloud Pavilion quickly realized that the one who had called Yun Tian Laozu by his name was actually this Minor Repairs from the Blood Condensation Realm. Furthermore, this Minor Repairs did not even look at them when he spoke. Instead, the aura he exuded caused him to unintentionally answer Lu Ping's question.
The disciple immediately felt humiliated. A mere Minor Repairs from the Blood Condensation Realm? Even his disciple's cultivation was higher than this Minor Repairs from the Blood Condensation Realm, and this fellow actually dared to speak to him in such a manner!
"Originally, I didn't want to start a massacre, but who would've thought that you wouldn't know when to stop. Don't blame me for being merciless!"
The direct disciple waved his hand at Lu Ping from afar. This move of his was called "Sneaking into the Night with the Wind". Although the name sounded poetic, it was a ruthless move that killed without leaving a trace. In his opinion, it was a waste to use this move on a Blood Condensation Realm cultivator. But the direct disciple didn't think it was worth it to use this move on a Blood Condensation Realm cultivator.
It seems that I still lack self-control. No wonder my Martial Uncle encouraged me to go out and explore the world. In order to establish a foothold in the cultivation world, strength was the foundation, but it wasn't the only thing.
When the direct disciple attacked, he was still sighing in his heart. However, the Blood Condensation Realm cultivator in front of him, who he had already predicted would die, stood there as if nothing had happened. The direct disciple's technique that he had tried so many times before was like a clay ox in the ocean.
He had kicked an iron plate! This fellow wasn't even a Blood Condensation cultivator!
The disciple's expression sank. He coldly said, "Who are you? Why are you provoking my Flowing Cloud Pavilion again and again? Are you trying to make an enemy out of our sect?"
"Make an enemy out of me?"
Lu Ping glanced coldly at the Flowing Cloud Pavilion official disciple, not bothering to hide the disdain in his eyes. "You're just a little mid Dharma cultivator. Even if Yun Tian were here, he wouldn't dare to speak to me like this!"
The disciple's expression turned cold. He had just used these words to mock Chi Lianying, but now, Lu Ping had used them back on him.
"Such arrogance. Old Man, I want to see who has the guts to look down on my Flowing Cloud Pavilion!"
An angry roar came from afar, and a ray of light flew towards the valley from the horizon.
The corner of Lu Ping's mouth curled up in a mocking smile. Finally!
As the ray of light descended, Yun Tian Laozu strode out. A few Flowing Cloud Pavilion disciples at the entrance of the valley hurried forward to greet him. Yun Tian Laozu was the only one who nodded. His expression was solemn, and he looked at the disciple with a hint of dissatisfaction. Clearly, he was dissatisfied with the disciple's delay in dealing with the matter in the valley.
Yun Tian Laozu was considered one of the more famous cultivators in the Central Plains. After the battle at the Nine Mysteries Tower, Yun Tian Laozu had also benefited a lot from entering the Dao Altar World. After a few years of closed-door training, he had quickly pushed his cultivation to the peak of the late Dharma stage. Even the fourth Pure Yang Throne in the history of Flowing Cloud Pavilion was waving at him.
Now, the six holy lands of the cultivation world were all in trouble. The two holy lands near Flowing Cloud Pavilion, Wuxing School and Nine Mysteries Tower, had suffered great losses. Now, Yun Tian Laozu was full of ambition. He wanted to raise Flowing Cloud Pavilion's status in the cultivation world once again after advancing to the Pure Yang stage. He wanted to become an established sect like Tianxuan Sect and Tianyue Sect.
"Who was the one who spoke so arrogantly just now …"
Lu Ping turned around slightly with a smile on his face. He looked at the stunned cultivator in front of him and said, "Fellow Yun Tian, how have you been!"
"Lu, Lu, Lu Tianping!"
Ancestor Yun Tian exclaimed in shock. Subconsciously, he was about to put up his guard, but then he realized that he would be making a fool of himself in front of his own disciple if he acted so cowardly. So, he tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart and said solemnly, "What are you doing here? My Flowing Cloud Pavilion has nothing to do with your Zhen Ling Sect!"
Yun Tian Laozu actually did not care whether his image in front of the sect disciples was ruined because of his panic at the moment he saw Lu Tianping. Because when he shouted the three words "Lu Tianping", the Flowing Cloud Pavilion cultivators behind him were already in an uproar. How could they care about the expression on their own Yun Tian Laozu's face?
Lu Tianping was the North Sea Water Sword Immortal who killed a Pure Yang Fire Luan and fought off a Heavenly Demon?
Several Flowing Cloud Pavilion disciples looked at Lu Ping with fear in their eyes. The direct disciple from Flowing Cloud Pavilion was already drenched in cold sweat. This Condensation Minor Repairs in front of him was actually the North Sea Water Sword Immortal who pretended to be a pig to eat a tiger. He had actually shouted at him and even secretly attacked him, trying to kill him. Thinking of this, the direct disciple felt as if he was walking on the edge of the gates of hell. You are the North Sea Water Sword Immortal, but you hid your cultivation and plotted against us. Is it really that fun?
Lu Ping pointed at Linglong's wine cauldron in the middle of the valley and said, "That's strange. It was your Flowing Cloud Pavilion that came looking for trouble with me. Why is it that from your tone, it seems that I deliberately came looking for trouble?"
Lu Ping paused for a moment, then a smile suddenly appeared on his face. He said, "If you say that I deliberately came looking for trouble, it is not without reason. If I remember correctly, Fellow Daoist Yun Tian was one of the people who set up a trap in the Dao Altar to kill me, right?"
Yun Tian Laozu's expression instantly changed. He smiled bitterly and said, "What happened in the Dao Altar was also because of the Wuxing School's bewitchment. I didn't think that the person who was ambushed would be you, Lu Daoyou. Moreover, Lu Daoyou didn't suffer any losses that day. On the contrary, it was Great Cultivator Gu from Wuxing School who had his cultivation crippled by Lu Daoyou."
"Oh, so you're saying that if I was the one who suffered losses that day, then I deserved it?"
Yun Tian Laozu was stunned and said quietly, "If Lu Daoyou insists on fighting, the Old Man will accompany you!"
Lu Ping smiled and didn't say anything.
Yun Tian Laozu glanced at the scene in front of him and roughly guessed what had happened. He suddenly turned around and scolded fiercely, "Ignorant things, you can't read and don't know how to touch the signboard. Do you dare to casually offend the North Sea Water Sword Immortal?"
Lu Ping and Chi Lianying looked at each other secretly. They could see the ridicule in each other's eyes. The other person only said that he had offended them, but he didn't mention anything about stealing the treasure. He spoke highly of Lu Ping, but in fact, Lu Ping was just like the direct disciple of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion who had "offended" him. They were both third-generation cultivators.
The direct disciple hesitated for a moment, then silently stepped forward and said, "I didn't know that Senior Lu was here. I have offended you, please forgive me!"
This surprised Lu Ping. From Lu Ping's point of view, all the direct disciples cultivated by the sect were arrogant. Expecting them to apologize for him would be worse than killing them. However, this direct disciple of the Flowing Cloud Pavilion was actually willing to put down his pride and apologize. This made Lu Ping take a few more glances at him.
Lu Ping's eyes narrowed slightly and he quickly stepped aside. He then smiled and said, "I don't dare. Fellow Daoist Qian, please don't make things difficult for me. We are both third-generation disciples, so you and I can treat each other as equals!"
Seeing that the matter was over, Yun Tian Laozu felt relieved. He still had a smile on his face and said, "It was my Flowing Cloud Pavilion's fault. Since Lu Daoyou is passing by, why don't you come to my Flowing Cloud Pavilion and stay for a while to make up for the previous offense against Lu Daoyou?"
Lu Ping put on a fake smile and refused, "Fellow Daoist Yun, I appreciate your kindness. Everyone, please go back. I still have important matters to attend to, so I won't chat with you anymore."
