In Xiao Lingyu's opinion, people like Ji Yong were so arrogant because they had suffered too few losses.
"Alright, we, the descendants of Earth, are already in such a difficult situation. We must unite together in order to be able to stand out. I advise you to restrain yourself. Don't act without considering the consequences just because you have some ability. "Zhong Zhi patted Ji Yong's shoulder as if lecturing him.
"Hmph! I'm here to play with you, not to listen to you lecture me. You have no right to lecture me! "
Ji Yong's shoulder shook, and he flicked Zhong Zhi's hand away. Then, he left in a huff. When he reached the door, he turned back to look at Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu's expression was still as calm as ever, without a trace of anger. However, he felt that Zhong Zhi was a good person. Ji Yong, on the other hand, was just so-so. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart …
Not every descendant of Earth had a sense of danger, and not every descendant of Earth was worth befriending.
"You don't need to lower yourself to his level. He's just like that. He uses his Yellow Emperor bloodline to stir up trouble all the time. He can't accomplish anything, but he's good at ruining things," Zhong Zhi explained to Xiao Lingyu.
"Haha, I'm not related to him in any way, so why should I be so stubborn with him? It's just that if someone like him loses his protection, he won't even know how he died sooner or later." Xiao Lingyu said with a smile.
"We often advise and lecture him, but it's already his nature, and it's hard to change. That's why Elder Qi sent him to the Ping Jing Continent, where resources are scarce and there aren't many cultivators. It's to train his willpower, and at the same time, let him encounter fewer powerful cultivators from the Celestial Realm," Zhong Zhi said helplessly.
"What's so different about having the Yellow Emperor bloodline?" Xiao Lingyu asked curiously.
It was obvious that Ji Yong was arrogant, despotic, and disliked by everyone. However, he was taken care of by everyone because he had the Yellow Emperor bloodline.
As for the Yellow Emperor, Xiao Lingyu's knowledge was limited to vague introductions in books on Earth.
The Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of the Chinese people, was called Xuanyuan. In ancient times, he defeated the Yan Emperor and Chi You. He was the first to unify the Chinese people. In myths and legends, he was the Central Celestial Emperor of the Celestial Realm.
"The Yellow Emperor was an expert of the ancient Earth. He was powerful and had great prestige. He was skilled in calculation and was good at alchemy and medicine making. Not only was his cultivation level high, but his soul was also different from ordinary people. Cultivators with the Yellow Emperor's bloodline will have some special characteristics in their souls that ordinary people don't have."
Zhong Zhi continued, "For example, that Ji Yong from before is of the Yellow Emperor's direct bloodline. His soul's perception is far superior to that of ordinary people. Ordinary illusory restrictions or formations are useless to him. Moreover, he can see through some deeply hidden things with a single glance. He and I are both in the early stage of the Immortal Emperor Stage, but he can see through your true cultivation level. I can't. "
When Xiao Lingyu heard this, he finally felt relieved in his heart. No wonder that Ji Yong was able to see through my cultivation realm with a single sentence.
"The cultivation world is big. There are countless capable people. If you are blindly arrogant because you have extraordinary abilities, you will get yourself killed sooner or later. You will waste your special bloodline." Xiao Lingyu commented.
"There are very few cultivators with the bloodline of the ancient powerful cultivators in the Celestial Realm. Although we don't like Ji Yong's habits, we can only bear with it. Once he becomes powerful, he will become a powerful cultivator in the Three Realms. He will make a great contribution to our Earth descendants. Before he becomes truly powerful, we can only protect him. "Zhong Zhi sighed.
"Haha."
Xiao Lingyu shook his head and smiled. In his opinion, he could not place his hopes on one person, especially someone like Ji Yong, who had an unstable state of mind.
Even if Ji Yong could turn the tide and become invincible in the Three Realms, he would not be afraid of helping the Earth descendants see the light of day again. However, with his arrogant personality, if no one could suppress him, God knows if he would be unfavorable to the Earth descendants.
Even if Ji Yong was sincere about helping the Earth descendants, he would still ascend to the Celestial Realm one day.
Zhong Zhi took out a token and handed it to Xiao Lingyu, saying, "Ji Yong isn't a peaceful person. I have to go with him. Take this token first. Just drip a bit of your Blood Soul into it and it will recognize you as its master. You will be a member of our Inquiry Organization in the future."
The token was silver-white and palm-sized. The words "Inquiry Organization" were engraved on the front and the image of Earth's ancient expert, Nuwa, was engraved on the back.
"This is the highest token in the Inquiry Organization for those below the Immortal Emperor Stage. You can only get an Immortal Emperor token from Elder Qi. I will apply for it for you later." Zhong Zhi explained.
"Brother Zhong, you can go ahead. I will also take my leave."
Xiao Lingyu nodded and followed Zhong Zhi out of the shop. After saying goodbye again, he left the East Royal City and flew towards the Nan Hua Immortal Sect at full speed.
Before Zhong Zhi left, he still advised Xiao Lingyu to think about the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. His intention was for Xiao Lingyu to get involved. While stirring up the situation, Xiao Lingyu could help Baozi rope in one of the three major factions of the Nan Hua Immortal Sect. Xiao Lingyu could represent Baozi to cooperate with one of the factions and help that faction win before devouring that faction.
Xiao Lingyu did not take this suggestion to heart. He only wanted to cultivate peacefully and had no intention of fighting for benefits. If the Earth descendants needed his support, he would not hesitate.
While Xiao Lingyu was thinking about the descendants of Earth along the way and rushing at full speed, he saw a cultivator stopping in mid-air not far in front of him less than two hours after he flew out of the East Royal City. It was as if the cultivator was waiting for him.
When he flew closer, Xiao Lingyu saw that the cultivator was Ji Yong.
Xiao Lingyu wanted to go around him, but he felt that there was no need. If he did, it would make him look guilty. Therefore, he braced himself and flew over.
However, when he flew to Ji Yong's side, Xiao Lingyu naturally could not crash into him. He also did not intentionally stop to greet him. Instead, when he was a thousand feet away from Ji Yong, he slightly changed his direction.
Who would have thought that Ji Yong would move more than a thousand feet horizontally, blocking Xiao Lingyu's path again.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Lingyu frowned and asked.
"Nothing, I just wanted to spar with you. I think your Divine Fire is not bad." Ji Yong smiled and replied.
"Have you been waiting for me here?" Xiao Lingyu asked again.
"Of course not. I didn't know you would pass by here. I just followed you out of the city and arrived here in advance after judging your route. You're too slow. It's not difficult for me to catch up and surpass you." Ji Yong shook his head and said.
Indeed, Xiao Lingyu's speed was only slightly faster than a late-stage Immortal Lord. He definitely could not compare to an early-stage Immortal Emperor. Moreover, Ji Yong was not an ordinary early-stage Immortal Emperor.
"I'm really not interested in a spar. If I have the time and energy to spar, I might as well meditate for a while." Xiao Lingyu was not interested at all. "It's not good if I can't control myself during a spar and hurt anyone."
"I know you don't dare to, but this is not up to you. I advise you to go all out. Otherwise, don't blame me for being too ruthless if you're killed." Ji Yong refused to give up.
Xiao Lingyu knew that Ji Yong said he wanted to spar with him, but he was actually discouraged by what happened just now.
"There's no need to spar. I admit defeat. I can't beat you." Xiao Lingyu waved his hand and said.
"I didn't expect that you're also a descendant of Earth. You don't even have the courage to spar with me. Why? Are you afraid that I'll kill you?"
Ji Yong said with a look of disdain. "If you follow me to the East Royal City and shout 'I'm a coward' three times on the streets, I'll cancel this spar."
Xiao Lingyu didn't get angry, not because he was thick-skinned, but because he disdained such a low-level provocation. However, after a smile, he said, "Since you have such a strong request, I don't mind sparring with you once. It's just that the two of us sparring here will definitely cause a big commotion. It might even attract a crowd. I think you don't want too many people to come and watch, right?"
"Then do you have any good suggestions?" Ji Yong asked with a look of indifference.
"Let's go to the starry sky and find an uninhabited planet to spar. We can avoid a lot of trouble." Xiao Lingyu said calmly.
"Haha, that's a good idea. I'll go first. If you're not a coward, follow me!"
Ji Yong laughed and flew into the sky.
Although the higher one went in the Immortal World, the greater the pressure, as long as one had the strength of an Immortal Lord, one could fly into the starry sky.
Xiao Lingyu was still calm at this moment. The Wings of Extreme Speed appeared behind him. He also jumped up and flew up, chasing after Ji Yong.
The starry sky above the East Royal Continent was the same as the starry sky of other continents. It was lonely and deep. On an unknown planet, Xiao Lingyu and Ji Yong stopped.
Even if thearch-level experts fought in the starry sky, it would be difficult to spread their aura to the continent. There was no need to worry about outsiders watching.
"Can we start?" Ji Yong looked very confident.
"Come on." Xiao Lingyu nodded.
"Haha! Let me see just how capable you are! "
Ji Yong's body flashed. In the next moment, he was in front of Xiao Lingyu. Just as he was about to attack, he felt an evil and scorching aura coming at him. He immediately retreated a few hundred feet.
Xiao Lingyu knew the difference between him and a thearch-level expert. He also knew that he would be locked on by a thearch-level expert's immortal senses. Thus, he could only take the opponent's attack head-on. He first released the Primal Chaos True Fire and let it surround his body.
Then, blood crystals started to tremble in Xiao Lingyu's body. Waves of rich and pure chaos demonic energy started to surge throughout his body.
Xiao Lingyu's aura kept rising. His body also expanded and changed shape. First, his arms turned into dragon claws. Then, his body elongated and became a dragon covered in dragon scales.
