"Guys, that's not right. You should know that according to our Sacred Gate's rules, even if the Sect Leader is present, he can't just tell anyone to scram!" Linlong said calmly.
Su Fei had read the sect's rules before, so he naturally remembered it clearly.
"Brat, what nonsense are you talking about? We don't dare to compare ourselves to the Sect Leader!" Hearing Linlong's words, these people's expressions changed.
Then, Senior Brother Yang's face darkened, and he said, "Brat, I'll say it again. Are you leaving or not?"
"Leave? Why would I leave? Teacher Han Yueran arranged for Senior Sister Su to bring me around the Sacred Gate. Why would I leave before I'm familiar with the place? "Linlong smiled faintly.
"Brat, don't think that you can be complacent just because Teacher Han Yueran arranged for you. Back then, Teacher Han Yueran just couldn't find anyone. He wasn't specially taking care of you. Do you understand?" someone shouted.
"I naturally don't know what Instructor Han Yueran is thinking, but there's one thing I do know. Senior Sister Su doesn't like you, Senior Brother Yang. So, Senior Brother Yang, it's best that you stop pursuing Senior Sister Su because there won't be any results. If I were you, I would have given up on her a long time ago," Linlong said.
Linlong's words directly hit Senior Brother Yang's sore spot. Senior Brother Yang's face immediately turned as black as ink. If it wasn't for the fact that they were in the Sacred Gate's headquarters, he would have already pounced on Linlong.
"Brat, how dare you!" Hearing Linlong's words, the others were enraged.
"Brat, I can't do anything to you in the headquarters for the time being. Once we leave the headquarters, you better be careful. Don't let me catch you!" Senior Brother Yang said coldly.
Then, he said to the others, "Let's go!"
"Brat, just you wait. If you offend Senior Brother Yang, you won't have an easy time in the headquarters!" After saying such threatening words, the others also left behind Senior Brother Yang.
At this time, two people who looked like elders were whispering to each other not far away.
"Eh, isn't that Lin Li who defeated Min De? I didn't expect to offend a senior brother so soon after coming to the headquarters," one of them said.
"A graceful woman is a gentleman's desire. This is a very normal thing," another person said with a smile.
"However, Elder Mu, the Vice Sect Leader has instructed us to pay attention to the new disciples. Could this newcomer Lin Li be carrying a treasure with Pure Yang Energy?" The person from before suddenly said.
"That's impossible. After all, we've seen Lin Li's magical techniques and spiritual fire. It's impossible for him to be an outsider who snuck into our Sacred Gate."
"Come to think of it, I'm afraid I'm worrying too much."
The two of them spoke very softly, thinking that no one around them could hear them. Who would have thought that Linlong would hear them clearly?
It was probably because the matter of him using the Violet Sun Divine Sword in the Heavenly Devil Cave had been discovered by the Demon Sect. It seemed that he had to be more careful in the future. This thought immediately flashed in Linlong's mind.
"Junior brother, what's wrong?" Su Fei suddenly asked when he saw that Linlong seemed to be absent-minded.
Raising his head, Linlong shook his head and said, "It's nothing."
"That's good. I thought you were afraid of offending Senior Brother Yang and the rest." Su Fei heaved a sigh of relief.
"Senior Sister, these people should be Master's disciples, right?" Linlong suddenly asked.
He guessed this from the tone of the people around him.
"Yes." Su Fei nodded, and then said apologetically, "Junior Brother Lin, I'm really sorry. I made you offend them for nothing."
"Senior sister, what are you saying? Based on their behavior, even if I don't offend them today, they will definitely make things difficult for me in the future," Linlong said.
After a moment of silence, Su Fei said, "Junior brother, let's put the mission aside for now."
"Why?" Linlong could not help but ask.
"Just now, we offended Senior Brother Yang and the others, and Senior Brother Yang was so angry. With his temper, he definitely won't be able to tolerate it for even a second. So, when we leave the headquarters to do our tasks, he will definitely secretly follow us and wait for an opportunity to strike. With their strength, we are no match for them at all," Su Fei said.
"Senior sister, don't worry. The headquarters is so big. If we find a chance to sneak out, do you think we will be discovered?" Linlong said.
"Junior brother, you have underestimated Senior Brother Yang and the rest's abilities." Su Fei shook her head.
"Senior sister, we can't be afraid. You should know that this mission has a time limit. If we don't go out now, we will definitely not be able to complete it on time. It would not be good if our contribution points were deducted."
For a mission with a time limit like this, if they could not complete it, their contribution points would generally be deducted.
"Then …" Su Fei seemed to be thinking about it. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, let's go out now."
As she spoke, she followed Linlong and the two of them walked out of the headquarters from a certain direction.
Su Fei led Linlong in a few big circles. It seemed like he had shaken off Senior Brother Yang and the others, but Linlong could clearly sense that they were still following behind them.
Linlong was not worried that they could do anything to him, so he naturally would not tell Su Fei.
"Junior brother, how is it? Do you feel that they are chasing us?" Su Fei suddenly asked.
"No." Linlong shook his head.
"Although I can't feel it either, I feel that it is not safe. So, we still have to use that thing." As she spoke, Su Fei took out a small bottle and said to Linlong, "Junior brother, sprinkle the powder in this on yourself. It can confuse your aura. If Senior Brother Yang and the rest follow us, they will definitely lose track of us."
After saying that, Su Feishui sprinkled some powder on himself before handing the small bottle to Linlong.
Before Linlong took it, he could already smell the powder on Su Fei's body. As an alchemist, he naturally knew that Su Fei was right. This powder indeed had the effect of confusing one's aura.
After using this powder, given the strength of the few people behind them, they would definitely not be able to follow them.
This was naturally not what Linlong wanted. However, Su Fei was watching him from the side, so he naturally could not not sprinkle the powder.
Of course, he also had a way to make Senior Brother Yang and the rest catch up with them. So, he was not worried and directly sprinkled some powder on himself.
Seeing Linlong's actions, Su Fei nodded in satisfaction before receiving the small bottle and carefully putting it away.
"Senior sister, this thing is very expensive, right?" Linlong asked when he saw Su Fei's actions.
"Yes, this thing is very expensive. It is something that has a price but no supply. It is also because I am very close to a certain senior sister that she gave me a little," said Su Fei.
"Then, won't you suffer a huge loss if I use so much, Senior Sister?" Linlong could not help but ask.
Given his identity as an alchemist, he naturally knew how precious this thing was.
Of course, this was relative to others. If it was him, he could easily make this powder.
"For the sake of completing the mission, this little loss is nothing … Alright, Junior Brother, let's go. Otherwise, we'll be in trouble once the powder loses its effect." Su Fei immediately pulled Linlong and walked forward after saying that.
Even with the powder, Su Fei was still worried. So, after that, he still brought Linlong through many twists and turns, and after quite a while, they finally arrived at their destination.
It was a place called the Scarlet Demon Mountain Range. It was neither too far nor too close to the Demon School's headquarters. What they wanted to kill was a Fierce Beast with strength nearing the peak of the Martial Lord realm called the Black Fire Snake.
Normally, the Black Fire Snake's skin would appear to be black and white. However, when it used the Profound Energy in its body, the surface of its body would immediately become fiery-red. That was also the reason why it was called the Black Fire Snake.
"Junior brother, the Raven Fire Serpent is within the Scarlet Devil Mountain Range. However, this serpent is a little difficult to find. At the same time, there are also other formidable and ferocious beasts within the mountain range. Therefore, we must be extremely cautious." Su Fei said.
"Mm, junior brother understands." Linlong immediately nodded.
Quickly after, Su Fei immediately brought Linlong to search around the mountain range.
After a while, the two of them encountered a Fierce Beast. However, it was not a Black Fire Snake. After fighting for a while, the two of them killed the Fierce Beast.
"We've already encountered such a Fierce Beast outside. We must be even more careful," said Su Fei cautiously.
The cautious Su Fei did not know that at that moment, there were several people nearby who were paying close attention to their every movement.
If Su Fei was there, he would definitely be able to tell that those people were Senior Yang and the others.
"Just now, we lost track of Junior Su. If it wasn't for Lin Li being careless and dropping something on him, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to follow them."
"That Lin Li is truly foolish. He didn't even know what dropped on him. I truly don't know how someone like that defeated Minde from the Hall of Divine Justice."
"I think he's most likely up to some petty tricks."
Senior Yang and the others discussed in such a manner.
Coincidentally, they weren't there that day, so they didn't witness the battle between Linlong and Minde.
At that moment, they didn't notice that Senior Yang's expression was even more unsightly.
The reason why it was unsightly was because he knew the value of the powder. Such an expensive thing was actually used to avoid them to complete a mission. It was simply not worth it.
Su Fei was not foolish. Hence, he felt that Su Fei was willing to make such a loss just to be with Linlong.
After understanding this, how could his expression be good when he thought about how his pursuit of Lin Li had been rejected?
"Senior Yang, what should we do?" After discussing for a while, someone turned to look at Senior Yang and asked.
"Let's go up now and stop Lin Li. Then, we'll teach him a lesson and let him know how powerful we are. We'll traumatize him when he thinks about us in the future," someone said.
"That's a good idea. After he experiences the pain, he definitely won't dare to approach Junior Su." Immediately, two people nodded in agreement.
