'Why does it sound like she's not here with good intentions? '
Miao Yi turned to look at the two fellows beside him and transmitted his voice, "You two have a lot of big mouths. Should I learn from you and tell everyone how you completed your mission?"
The two of them were left speechless. Miao Yi carefully examined the female Daoist. Her body was covered by her loose robe, and he couldn't tell if she was a good person or not. However, she had a pretty face with big, bright eyes. She looked a little arrogant. Then, he transmitted his voice and asked, "Who is this woman?"
Bao Ning replied, "She is Senior Uncle Deming's daughter, and also the Sect Master's granddaughter. Her Dharma name is Bao Lian, and her cultivation is at the Red Lotus Ninth Grade."
"Daoist Deming is the Sect Master's son?" Miao Yi asked, surprised.
Bao Ning replied, "Yes."
It was best not to offend the Sect Master's granddaughter! Miao Yi smiled and said, "That's not true. Bao Ning and Bao Xin were just bragging. You two continue your cultivation. I won't disturb you any longer." He thought to himself, 'My surname really is Niu now.'
As soon as he took two steps forward, Bao Lian was already in front of him, blocking his path. He lifted his sword and placed it behind his back. "Sir, why do you look down on us so much? Are you not even willing to say a few words?"
Miao Yi chuckled, "There is a difference between a man and a woman. I'm afraid that people will misunderstand if I speak too much."
"..." Bao Lian opened his mouth, speechless.
"Farewell!" Miao Yi led the two away and prepared to leave.
Whoosh! All of a sudden, Bao Lian swung his sword and blocked his way. "Sir, you are overthinking things. I heard that a Red Lotus Third Grade Snake Demon couldn't even withstand a single blow from a cultivator. We Red Lotus cultivators from the Vitality Sect admire you very much. I wonder if you could teach us a few moves and broaden our horizons?"
Miao Yi sighed, "Isn't it normal for a Red Lotus Seventh Grade Snake Demon like me to defeat a Red Lotus Third Grade Snake Demon? Besides, there's no such thing as winning in one move. Bao Xin and Bao Ning were just exaggerating. I exchanged at least a thousand blows with the Snake Demon. If you don't believe me, you can ask the two of them. "
Bao Lian glared at Bao Ning and Bao Xin. The two of them were on the verge of tears. Last night, they were just bragging in front of their fellow disciples. Now, they were slapping themselves in the face. That was …
However, the two of them still braced themselves and nodded.
They had no choice. If they angered Layman Niu, he might reveal the truth behind how they completed the Experiential Training Mission. The two of them were filled with regret.
"You …" Bao Lian pointed his sword at the two of them, but then he put it down again. Now was not the time to settle the score with these two fellows. He scoffed at Miao Yi and said, "Just now, when Layman Niu was watching us cultivate, he shook his head slightly. It seemed like he was quite disdainful of our methods."
"That's not true. I was just amazed. That's why I shook my head." Miao Yi cupped his fists. Unwilling to get entangled with Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan circled around him once more.
Bao Lian was speechless again. What could Bao Lian do about it if he didn't want to admit it?
Under the watchful eyes of her fellow disciples in the valley, she felt a little embarrassed. She gritted her teeth and quickly gave chase. Her sword was like a rainbow, piercing towards Miao Yi.
Miao Yi acted swiftly, pulling Bao Xin over from the side. Clang!
It almost scared Bao Xin out of his wits.
Seeing that Bao Xin's sword was about to pierce through his heart, Bao Lian could only abruptly pull back his hand. However, he managed to avoid Bao Xin's attack and took the opportunity to avoid Miao Yi.
With his cultivation base, Bao Xin couldn't even budge an inch in Miao Yi's hands. He was like a piece of wood being pulled back and forth in Miao Yi's hands as he quickly blocked the Lotus Lamp's attacks.
There were a few times when Bao Lian was not able to pull his hand back in time, and he managed to tear a few holes in Bao Xin's robe.
This thing was too stimulating. Bao Xin exclaimed in fright, "Senior Sister, quickly stop!"
His Senior Sister didn't listen to him, so he could only change his mind. "Sir, please stop."
Stop? Miao Yi sneered inwardly. 'If this Daoist nun doesn't stop, then you can continue blocking her. Who asked you two to be so talkative?'
What annoyed Miao Yi was … The Daoist nun had no intention of stopping. Seeing that Bao Xin's clothes were about to become ragged, if this continued, she, who had been using Bao Xin as a shield, would also become a villain. He immediately cast a spell and shouted, "Help!"
His voice shocked Bao Lian, and he raised his sword in his hand. He was a little overwhelmed.
'Whoosh!' Daoist Master De Ming, who was in charge of Miao Yi's side, was the first to arrive. When he saw the situation, he immediately shouted, "Bao Lian, what are you doing?"
Soon, even the Sect Master, Master Yuling, was alerted. The three Enlightened Masters of the Vitality Sect landed on the mountains on either side of the valley. 'Are you kidding me? He just gave a treasure to the Vitality Sect, and now he's shouting' help '? If word got out, would the Vitality Sect be trying to kill him for his wealth?'
The others also landed one after another. The disciples who couldn't fly were also quickly running over, not knowing what was going on.
Not long after, the entire Vitality Gate was startled by Miao Yi's cry for help.
Miao Yi finally let go of Bao Xin, who was drenched in cold sweat. Bao Lian, on the other hand, was on the verge of tears.
Master Yuling frowned and asked, "Bao Lian, what's going on?"
Miao Yi cupped his fists and replied, "This Daoist nun forced me to spar with her. I knew I was no match for her, but she wouldn't let me go. I had no choice but to ask for help."
Bao Lian almost burst into tears. He quickly retorted, "No. He was the one who showed disdain for the sword art I displayed. That's why I asked him to spar with me."
Miao Yi exclaimed, "Daoist nun, why do you have to frame me? I only watched for a while before leaving. I didn't even say a word. How is that disdain? "
Bao Lian said, "You were shaking your head without saying a word. You were expressing disdain!" He turned to Master Yuling and cupped his fists. "Sect Master, I just asked him if a Red Lotus Third Grade Snake Yao couldn't even withstand a single blow from him. Yet, he refused to admit it. If that isn't disdain, then what is?"
Miao Yi said helplessly, "If you insist, then there's nothing I can do."
Master Yuling immediately pointed to a disciple in the valley and asked, "What happened? Tell me the truth."
The disciple didn't dare to hide anything. He immediately explained what had happened.
When he was done, everyone heaved a sigh of relief. They thought it wasn't a big deal. It was just one side insisting on a spar, while the other side was unwilling. 'Seriously, did Scholar Niu have to shout for help?' It was just a false alarm for everyone.
After Master Yuling dismissed the disciple, he smiled at Miao Yi and said, "Sir, why won't you admit that you killed a demon with a single move? Are you looking down on my Vital Energy Sect's sword art? It's not a bad thing to spar with each other. Why don't you show your juniors that there's always someone better out there? "
He wanted to see Miao Yi's skills as well. He wanted to see if he could figure out Miao Yi's cultivation background. However, he didn't want to force Miao Yi to fight. Now was his chance.
Miao Yi was speechless. 'As expected, if you're not from the same family, then you're from the same family.'
When Bao Lian heard the Sect Master's words, he immediately landed at the bottom of the valley. He dismissed his fellow disciples, then raised his sword and cupped his fists at Miao Yi. "Sir, please enlighten me!"
'What the hell is this?!' Miao Yi thought to himself. Master Yuling had already spoken. If he didn't give face to the Sect Master in front of everyone, then he would definitely offend the entire Vital Energy Sect.
He could only land at the bottom of the valley and pull out a sword artifact. It was obvious that he only wanted to spar with the other party.
"Forgive me!" Bao Lian said impatiently. He had already moved his sword and was aiming for Miao Yi's abdomen. Miao Yi was so angry that he didn't hold back.
Miao Yi was not comfortable with a sword. He didn't have any fancy moves with it. He could only swing it casually. 'Clang!' He parried the other party's attack.
Bao Lian's sword missed. Then, with a flash of sword light, she attacked Miao Yi like a thunderstorm.
Miao Yi had one hand behind his back. He swung, blocked, smashed, and swept his sword repeatedly. He was using the same method to deal with the unexpected.
A series of clanging sounds echoed throughout the valley. Bao Lian moved as fast as the wind, and the afterimages of his sword were chaotic.
But no matter how fast or complicated her attacks were, Miao Yi's sword was always able to block her sword. He repeatedly swung, blocked, smashed, and swept to stop her attacks.
Looking down from above, Miao Yi was practically spinning in circles, while Bao Lian was dodging and attacking in all directions. However, the chaotic and complicated attacks were useless against Miao Yi. Miao Yi was always able to easily neutralize them.
From start to finish, Miao Yi was only defending. He didn't attack at all. Bao Lian, on the other hand, felt like she had nowhere to put her strength to use. She couldn't break through his opponent's messy defense.
"Senior Brother, this Layman Niu's reaction speed is incredible. It looks like he doesn't know how to use a sword at all. He's just relying on his sharp senses to react." Master Yuling transmitted his voice to the Sect Master. "It looks like Bao Xin and Bao Ning were right. He uses a spear. The way he swings his sword, it does seem like he uses a spear."
Master Yuling nodded. "He's giving us face. If we were to fight, Bao Lian wouldn't be a match for him."
"That's not necessarily true. Bao Lian's cultivation is two grades higher than his. This is just a contest of swords. If transcendence energy is taken into account, he might not necessarily lose."
"I'd like to see how good his spear art is. Perhaps I'll be able to find out who he inherited it from!" Master Yuling smiled and transmitted his voice to the people below.
The two disciples watching the battle from below the valley looked up at him, then quickly leaped forward with their swords in hand. "Layman Niu, please enlighten us!"
The three of them quickly joined forces to surround Miao Yi. Their swords flashed, forming a dense net of swords.
Miao Yi frowned. He quickly turned around, and the speed at which he swung his sword became even faster.
However, that was all. The three of them working together couldn't break through his defense. No matter how hard they tried, Miao Yi only defended and didn't attack. After all, he wasn't good at using swords to attack.
Bao Lian, who started the fight, gritted his teeth. He was a little embarrassed. 'Is this because he doesn't want to fight?'
Many of the Vitality Sect disciples exchanged glances. 'This Layman Niu's defense is incredible!'
Master Yuling nodded again from atop the mountain peak.
Four more disciples from below the valley immediately leaped forward with their swords in hand. "Minor Seven Stars Sword Formation. Layman Niu, please enlighten us!"
Four on Earth, Three in the Sky. Four on the ground surrounded Miao Yi from all four directions, while three in the sky launched a flurry of attacks. Miao Yi, who was only able to defend, was immediately flustered. He couldn't react in time with one hand, so he quickly grabbed another sword. Using both hands, he quickly defended himself while being trapped in the middle.
