What reassured Lu Ye was that he didn't receive any attacks after he revealed himself. He slightly restrained his aura, then ran towards a place with many people. He looked like he was in a hurry.
The plan had progressed to this stage, and he was basically halfway to success.
Now, he didn't need to deliberately hide his whereabouts. There were a few hundred people in a station. Other than those from the main sect, there were also those from other sects who were affiliated with the sect, as well as some independent cultivators who relied on the sect. It was impossible for all the cultivators to be familiar with each other, so it didn't matter much even if someone saw him. Unless someone knew Lu Ye and could identify him at a glance.
Moreover, it was currently night, so it was more convenient for him to act.
As he ran, Lu Ye lowered his head slightly, and the hair on his forehead fell down, covering most of his face. Soon, he arrived at the place where the cultivators from the Wind Flower Courtyard were gathered.
Their own station was being attacked, so they all gathered here in groups of three to five. Although they weren't worried about the formation being broken, they still needed to be on guard.
When Lu Ye rushed over from the back of the station, he did indeed attract the attention of many people. However, most people only glanced at him and didn't pay attention to him anymore. After all, no one would have thought that someone would be able to sneak in without anyone noticing before the protective formation was broken.
A few people took a second look at Lu Ye and only felt that he was a little unfamiliar. Similarly, they didn't think too much about it. In the stations of various sects, unfamiliar faces would often appear. They were all independent cultivators who came from other sects to join the sect or had recently joined the sect. The cultivators themselves would often cultivate in seclusion, and they would also go out and walk around. No one dared to say that they knew everyone in the station.
Outside the formation, the corner of Gu Canyang's eyes couldn't help but twitch as he watched Lu Ye blend into the crowd.
He secretly reflected on himself. It looked like he still had to set up some simple formations in the station later, so that he wouldn't be unaware when enemies sneaked in like this in the future. He didn't need to set up overly complicated formations. He only needed some simple warning formations. In this way, even if someone could sneak into the station like Lu Ye, their whereabouts would be exposed.
Just as he was letting his imagination run wild, Lu Ye had already arrived fifteen meters away from Yue Mei.
Previously, when he was hiding in the dark, he had already seen this woman before he barged into the formation. He also knew from the information provided by Gu Canyang that she was the guardian of the Wind Flower Courtyard. This woman was wearing a close-fitting palace dress, which set off her graceful figure.
This was a spell cultivator!
When Lu Ye's cultivation base was very low, he hated Dharma cultivators the most. Luo Ji and Dong Shuye had given him a huge psychological trauma.
However, as his cultivation level gradually increased, he gradually fell in love with Dharma cultivators. With the enhancement of the Wind Spirit Rune, his speed was fast enough and he could easily close the distance between him and the enemy Dharma cultivators. He could also easily dodge the spells cast by the Dharma cultivators. If he really couldn't dodge them, he would have the Defense Spirit Rune to block them.
After getting close to a weapon cultivator like him, the outcome of a spell cultivator was usually very tragic.
It could be said that Dharma cultivators of the same level as him would not be able to do anything to him, even if their cultivation was one or two levels higher.
Yue Mei's cultivation was undoubtedly at the Ninth Order Spirit Stream Realm, and she was on the verge of breaking through to the next level.
Her original plan was to wait for Chuqing to return, then transfer the position of Guardian to her, and then choose a Deputy Guardian from the sect to take over.
Unfortunately, Chu Qing had died in the Immortal Essence City. Even the candidate for the Vice Envoy had died. As a result, a month had already passed, but the position of the Vice Envoy was still empty. She was the only one in charge of the Wind Flower Courtyard.
It was said that the Elders of the sect were quarreling all day about the position of Deputy Guardian, and they all wanted their own disciples to take over. After all, there were still many benefits to being a Deputy Guardian. Not to mention the increase in monthly salary, it would be easier to obtain merits. Yue Mei was not far from leaving her position. In other words, she would soon be promoted to the position of Deputy Guardian.
After this matter was over, she had to quickly let the sect decide on a candidate for Deputy Guardian. Yue Mei secretly planned in her heart that this matter could not be delayed any longer.
Just as she was thinking this, a warning sign suddenly appeared in her heart. At the same time, she caught a glimpse of a figure rapidly approaching her from the corner of her eye.
She quickly turned her head to look and saw a young man with his head lowered. He was already within ten meters of her.
Yue Mei's hair instantly stood on end. She had never seen this young man before!
As the Guardian of Wind Flower Courtyard, even if she wasn't very familiar with the hundreds of people in the station, whether they were from the main sect, outer sect, or attached rogue cultivators, she could at least recognize them and call out their names.
It could be said that in the entire Wind Flower Courtyard, only she and the dead Chuqing knew everyone, because whether the cultivators were from the outside or attached rogue cultivators, they all had to go through the two of them to enter the station.
Although the young man had his head lowered, Yue Mei could still roughly see his appearance.
So, she was sure that she had never seen this young man before. Even before today, this young man had never appeared in the main sect's station.
Thinking of the trace of abnormality just now, Yue Mei immediately raised her hand and pointed to the side. A light burst out from her fingertip and a Spirit Technique flew towards the approaching person.
Yue Mei's strength was quite good. Just this instant Spirit Technique was enough to see her foundation. The power of this Spirit Technique wasn't too strong, but it was enough to repel most Eighth Order cultivators.
However, after activating this Spirit Technique, Yue Mei didn't feel the slightest sense of security. On the contrary, she was even more frightened because the moment she raised her hand, the young man's figure had already turned into an afterimage. At the same time she released her Spirit Technique, a snow-white blade flashed before her eyes.
Death was like a vicious beast, stretching out its bloody tongue and licking her Soul, causing her to tremble.
An ear-piercing sound of friction rang out as various scenes flashed before Yue Mei's eyes. A copious amount of force came from her throat, the impact almost breaking her cervical vertebra. A bright fluorescent light scattered as the blade slid across her neck, causing her throat to feel a slight pain.
Yue Mei immediately came back to her senses. Just now, she had almost instinctively urged her Spirit Qi to condense a barrier around her neck. She didn't even know why she had done so.
However, it was undeniable that this instinctive action had saved her life because Lu Ye's blade had been aimed at her neck. The fluorescent light that had exploded was the Spirit Qi barrier that had been shattered.
The Spirit Qi barrier used by Spirit Qi cultivators was somewhat similar to the Defensive Spirit Rune. It could provide a powerful defensive ability. It could be considered a Spirit Technique, so basically every Spirit Qi cultivator could use it.
Since his blade didn't succeed, Lu Ye immediately activated his plan. The Mountain Coiling Saber in his hand flashed brilliantly as he fiercely stabbed forward.
In his plan, as long as he could get within five meters of Yue Mei and launch a sneak attack, there was an eighty percent chance that he would be able to kill her. However, reality was always somewhat different from what he had expected. Yue Mei's vigilance was too strong, and her reaction was very fast, causing him to be unable to use his full strength. Although he had injured Yue Mei, that kind of injury wasn't enough to take her life.
Now that he was in the enemy's camp, he had to end the battle quickly. At most, he would only have one more chance to attack before he would be besieged by the Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators who had reacted.
As such, he didn't aim his second attack to kill Yue Mei, so he didn't fail again.
When Lu Ye's second attack came, Yue Mei hastily retreated. At the same time, she raised her hand and pointed a slender finger at Lu Ye. The Spirit Qi around her body surged. She clearly didn't know what kind of Spirit Qi technique she was going to use.
Without waiting for her to activate the Spirit Qi technique, Lu Ye's blade had already pierced through her other arm. A muffled groan sounded out and the intense pain caused Yue Mei's face to distort.
The Mountain Coiling Saber stirred and half of her arm flew off.
Yue Mei's expression immediately changed and she angrily roared, "Kill him!"
Lu Ye spread his wings and soared into the sky, grabbing the severed arm at the same time.
At that moment, the surrounding Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators finally realized what had happened. It wasn't that they were slow, but rather that Lu Ye's movements were too fast. He had only attacked twice in total and his confrontation with Yue Mei had only lasted for two breaths of time. In these short two breaths of time, who would be able to figure out what had happened?
Once Yue Mei's order was given, streaks of light blossomed from the hands of the Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators. However, Lu Ye had already soared into the sky. The streaks of light following behind him were all three to four hundred feet away, the limit of Spirit Qi technique. The range of the Spirit Qi technique's attack was much greater, but Lu Ye wouldn't just stand there and act as a target. The fiery red streaks of light on his wings gently flapped, nimbly dodging one Spirit Qi technique after another.
Yue Mei's face paled as she stared at the figure flying in the sky. When she saw her opponent throw away her severed arm, the blood in her entire body instantly turned cold.
She realized what her opponent wanted to do.
"Return to the Nine Provinces!" she shouted. "Quickly, everyone return to the Nine Provinces!"
It had to be said that Yue Mei was an extremely decisive woman. Even if one of her arms was severed and the pain was corroding her soul, she still made the most correct decision in an instant.
It could only be said that none of the Guardian Envoys of the various large Sects were stupid. They all had their own abilities.
Hearing her order, the Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators were stunned. The defensive Spirit Array was still there, and there was only one cultivator who had invaded their Sect. Moreover, he was only an Eighth Order cultivator. Why did they have to abandon their Sect and return to the Nine Provinces?
But soon, someone realized where the problem lay.
The defensive Spirit Array was indeed still there, but the jade ring that controlled it was gone!
The reason why Lu Ye's second attack had cut off Yue Mei's arm was because she was holding the Spirit Array jade ring in her hand and was constantly adjusting the power of the Spirit Array.
The most important thing to attacking the Wind Flower Courtyard was to destroy the jade ring. As long as this was done, the defensive Spirit Array of the Wind Flower Courtyard would collapse on its own.
"Quick, quick!" Yue Mei shouted as she took the lead and ran towards the Divine Secret Hall. Seeing this, the Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators didn't dare to hesitate and followed her.
Lu Ye, who was hovering in the air, pinched the jade ring with all his might, but he couldn't crush it. This thing looked like it was carved out of a piece of jade, but he didn't know what it was actually made of.
Time was of the essence, so he didn't have the heart to make any more attempts. He gently threw the jade ring in front of him and immediately stabbed out with his saber. Two sharpness instantly appeared on the saber.
