After another seven minutes, the third person from the Shen Tu family clan was eliminated. It was a girl in her twenties. Seeing this girl eliminated, the Thousand Hand Granny's face twitched slightly.
This girl's name was Shentu Yinxiang. She had extraordinary martial talent since a young age, so she was adopted by the Shen Tu family clan and given the surname Shentu.
Since a young age, she had grown up with Shentu Nantian and would become his concubine in the future.
Originally, Shentu Yinxiang was to accompany Shentu Nantian on this mystic realm expedition. She was responsible for protecting and assisting Shentu Nantian, so the Thousand Hand Granny had some expectations of Shentu Yinxiang. She hoped that she could accompany Shentu Nantian further.
However, she never expected that she would be eliminated at the beginning.
This made the Thousand Hand Granny frown. This girl usually had some ability, but when she was really needed, she dropped the ball. What a good-for-nothing.
"How is Tian 'er?"
The Thousand Hand Granny ignored Shentu Yinxiang's injuries and eagerly asked about Shentu Nantian's situation.
"Yinxiang is useless. I was unable to assist young master …" Shentu Yinxiang hurriedly swallowed a pill and said guiltily, "Young master passed the trial perfectly. His skills shocked everyone. Not only did he use the shortest amount of time, he was unscathed, and he even obtained the Great Empress mystic realm's reward. He obtained an Empyrean Mark."
"Empyrean Mark?" Upon hearing Shentu Yinxiang's words, the Thousand Hand Granny beamed with joy, "It is reasonable to obtain an Empyrean Mark. It's nothing much to Tian 'er. How many were there?"
"Five. Yinxiang counted very clearly. "
"Not bad!" The Thousand Hand Granny was even more satisfied. She was no longer picky about Shentu Nantian's future concubine, "If that's the case, then forget about your failure. Your strength is limited, so Tian 'er does not need your assistance. Speaking of which, Tian' er obtained quite a number of Empyrean Marks in the last Great Empress mystic realm trial. He obtained three in the first trial, but in the end, he was just short of opening the Great Empress' treasury."
"However, this time, Tian 'er obtained five marks in the first trial. The Great Empress' treasury will be Tian 'er's."
The Thousand Hand Granny's voice was loud and clear. and she did not disguise it. Many Elders from the surrounding factions heard it clearly. They had seen the Shen Tu family clan's jade scroll, so they naturally knew what an Empyrean Mark meant.
They were both envious and jealous of Shen Tu Nantian for obtaining five Empyrean Marks.
"This old thing is getting carried away!" On the Lin family's side, Matriarch Lin said indignantly. She regretted not crippling the Thousand Hand Granny back then.
Now, the Shen Tu family clan's trials were in a good state, while their Lin family's trials had a bleak future. This made Matriarch Lin feel depressed.
Feeling Matriarch Lin's gaze, the Thousand Hand Granny smiled in disdain. After the Alchemy Trial, she hated the Lin Clan to the core. She wanted nothing more than to bathe the Lin Clan in blood.
"Lin Fengxian, do you really think you can obtain the ancient recipe to cure that little witch girl in the Great Empress mystic realm? What a joke! Out of the ten juniors from your Lin family that entered the Great Empress mystic realm, it would be pretty good if two or three of them could return alive. Today's trip to the Great Empress mystic realm will be the beginning of the decline of your Lin family. There will come a day when my Shen Tu family clan will wipe your Lin family from the Tian Yuan world! "
The Thousand Hand Granny's words were filled with killing intent. Matriarch Lin's eyes turned cold. It was time for the Lin family and the Shen Tu family clan to see blood.
She did not want to engage in a pointless war of words with the Thousand Hand Granny. She wanted to wait for the Lin family's juniors to arrive. She needed to be fully focused, to prevent the Shen Tu family clan from sneaking an attack while she was saving people.
However, this wait lasted for another seven minutes. The spatial fluctuations at the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance became weaker. It had been a while since the juniors that failed were ejected from the Great Empress mystic realm.
This made Matriarch Lin's heart skip a beat. She did not see Lin Yu or Yi Yun. Could it be that the two of them had passed?
"There's almost no one left. Yi Yun might not come out. Could it be that only one of our Lin family's juniors has been eliminated after the first trial?"
Out of the ten juniors in the Lin family, only Lin Ping had been killed. The other nine were nowhere to be seen.
The Thousand Hand Granny scoffed at the naive thoughts of the Lin family Elder. The Great Empress mystic realm's elimination had not ended. Yi Yun would be kicked out sooner or later.
She knew very well of Shen Tu Nantian's arrangements. She could not wait to see the scene of Yi Yun's tragic death.
However, after a long period of time, the spatial fluctuations at the Great Empress mystic realm's entrance gradually calmed down. No one else came out. The Thousand Hand Granny's old face also slowly froze.
"He really passed!"
Elder Tianzhu and Matriarch Lin looked each other in the eye. They were pleasantly surprised. It was fine if it was Lin Yu. After all, he was a young elite nurtured by the Lin family. If he performed well, it would not be surprising for him to pass.
However, Yi Yun was a youth from the Backwater East. Furthermore, he had also wasted a large amount of time cultivating the Desolate Heaven technique. Yet, he managed to pass the first trial under such circumstances?
This kind of result, this kind of talent, it was simply amazing.
"Stop dreaming." At this moment, the Thousand Hand Granny's ear-piercing voice echoed, "Do you really think that the remaining nine people from your Lin family, especially that little bastard Yi Yun, can pass the trial? Let me tell you, there are many ways to die. There are those that leave a corpse, and there are those that do not leave a corpse. "
"For example … being sliced into pieces and having his bones ground to dust, if that little bastard were to be reduced to ashes, then even if he were to be ejected from the Great Empress mystic realm, he would only be ejected as an insignificant pile of ashes. Which one of you would be able to recognize that little bastard?"
The Thousand Hand Granny's words made Matriarch Lin's heart sink. To warriors, it was easy to destroy the corpse after killing someone.
She tilted her head slightly and looked at the young cultivators who had been eliminated.
These people were all 16-17 years old. Matriarch Lin's memory was very good. She remembered that a few people had entered the Great Empress mystic realm with Yi Yun. According to the Great Empress mystic realm's rules, cultivators who entered together and were of similar age would be placed in the same group.
These people should know Yi Yun's situation.
This included the pudgy youth who had his hand severed in the Great Empress mystic realm. He had been called "Guo 'er" by a woman. He had already woken up from his unconscious state and happened to hear the conflict between Matriarch Lin and the Thousand Hand Granny.
The Thousand Hand Granny had mentioned Yi Yun's name in her last sentence. The little fatty also understood that the conflict between the two important figures of the Shen Tu family clan and the Lin family was not only because of the feud between the two families, but also because of Yi Yun.
Yi Yun …
Thinking of this monster, the little fatty, who was still lying in the woman's arms, twitched his fat face. That kid was too strange, so strange that it made people afraid. And what made the little fatty feel the most fear was that he had previously wanted to kill Yi Yun.
He was glad that he did not make a move, or else his fat body would have been lost in the Great Empress mystic realm!
And when he heard the Thousand Hand Granny say that Yi Yun would definitely be eliminated from the trial, and then be sliced into pieces and ground to dust, the little fatty blinked his eyes on his fat face. He had an extremely odd expression.
As for the other youths who were from the same clan as Yi Yun and had been eliminated, they all had similar expressions.
"You sure have reminded me." The Thousand Hand Granny noticed Matriarch Lin's gaze and also looked at the youths that had been eliminated. "I know that Tian 'er had posted a bounty. Now that Tian' er has not come out of the trial, I helped him post the bounty. Amongst you, is there anyone who participated in the process of killing that little bastard, Yi Yun? Those who stabbed him with a knife or a sword can come to me to receive a reward. As long as it's true, everyone will have a share. "
The Thousand Hand Granny's voice was hoarse but loud. With her Yuan Qi injected into it, it easily entered everyone's ears.
She wanted to use this arrogant method to slap Lin Fengxian in the face, and deal a heavy blow to the Lin family.
However, what surprised the Thousand Hand Granny was that none of the youths that had been eliminated came out to receive their rewards. Instead, they all looked at her with odd expressions.
"Oh? What's the meaning of this? "
The Thousand Hand Granny found it strange. She had a slightly ominous feeling, as if the situation was different from what she had imagined …
"That … We did not stab Yi Yun …" The little fatty was the first to speak.
The Thousand Hand Granny was stunned as the unease in her heart grew stronger.
Matriarch Lin also looked at the little fatty.
Sensing Matriarch Lin's gaze, the little fatty hurriedly said, "Granny, please don't misunderstand. I never thought of dealing with Young master Yi Yun from the beginning, nor did I think of receiving any bounty."
The little fatty hurriedly expressed his stance. He was already afraid. The terrifying ancient desolate beast that had lost its hand in an instant had been killed by Yi Yun with a single arrow.
Although people like Gongsun Hong believed that Yi Yun had been lucky, and that he had attacked the ancient desolate beast's weakness, the little fatty did not think so. Yi Yun was too odd. He did not want Yi Yun to grow up in the future and remember the fatty who wanted to kill him for a bounty.
Hence, he used this occasion to clarify himself. He even changed the way he addressed Yi Yun to Young master Yi Yun. This was obvious.
Matriarch Lin naturally noticed the fear in the little fatty's words. She was curious and asked, "What happened to Yi Yun?"
"He … Uh … He perfectly passed … Not only was he uninjured, he even killed the ancient desolate beast guarding the level. Because of this, the Great Empress mystic realm rewarded him with an Empyrean Mark …" The little fatty was somewhat helpless. He was in such a miserable state and had lost his hand. He naturally felt uncomfortable talking about Yi Yun's glory.
"Empyrean Mark!?" Matriarch Lin's eyes lit up. This was a great surprise. She originally thought that it was very rare for Yi Yun to pass. She never expected that he had also obtained an Empyrean Mark!
"Yi Yun obtained an Empyrean Mark?" Elder Tianzhu also said. As the Grand Elder of the Lin family, a genius that could obtain an Empyrean Mark was not worthy of his attention. However, a genius that could obtain an Empyrean Mark in martial arts and also have unparalleled Desolate Heaven technique talent made him moved.
"That's right … It's not a small number." The little fatty said with a bitter expression.
"How many?" Matriarch Lin immediately asked.
"This …" The little fatty scratched his head and said with uncertainty, "I think … Uh … more than 30 …"
"More … How many!?"
Matriarch Lin was completely stunned. Elder Tianzhu was also completely petrified. He could not believe his ears!
