"Young Miss, I wouldn't dare."
A young man dressed in Huangfu Clan's frightening attire hurried over to Huangfu Jing's side. He lowered his voice so that only the two of them could hear him.
"It's you?"
Huangfu Jing's expression tightened at the young man's appearance. Her heart thumped, and her originally calm heart was shattered.
Why was he here? Wasn't he with Master? Why was he here …
She recognized the young man. His name was Zhao Tianqi, and he was the elder she had sent to serve the Sword Sect. He was also her master. But … but why was he here?
When she saw Zhao Tianqi, a bad premonition arose from her heart. Subconsciously, she knew that something bad had happened.
Zhao Tianqi looked at his master and vigilantly scanned the crowd. Naturally, he moved closer to Huangfu Jing's ear. Huangfu Jing didn't avoid him.
"Young Miss, we just received news that the Sword Sect doesn't allow Senior to accept you as a disciple. Furthermore …"
"What?"
Shock and bewilderment. This news was undoubtedly fatal to her now. One had to know that what she had done previously had crossed the bottom line of many people. Previously, if she hadn't received the news from Zhao Tianqi, perhaps she wouldn't have been afraid of anything. After all, she was previously a disciple of the Sword Gate.
But now, she wasn't. If her uncles or the Lin family found out about this, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, Huangfu Jing couldn't understand why the Sword Sect would appear to stop her.
"Furthermore, what?" Huangfu Jing asked.
Zhao Tianqi was startled when he sensed the anxiety in his young miss's voice. He hurriedly said, "Furthermore … your master seems to have … seems to have agreed. He even rushed back to the sect today."
"What? He … he left? "
"Yes!" Zhao Tianqi nodded. His expression was very serious, and he didn't seem to be lying. "According to the disciples of the Sword Sect, it seems that something has happened to the Sword Sect. Furthermore …"
"Furthermore, the matter seems to be related to you. So … so your plan to become a disciple of the Sword Sect is completely ruined."
Huangfu Jing: "…"
Huangfu Jing fell into silence. At this moment, Huangfu Jing's mind was in a mess. She couldn't figure out how she had offended the Sword Sect to the point that the Sword Sect would take action to stop her from being accepted as a disciple. Of course, more importantly, how should she end this situation?
From what Zhao Tianqi had told her, she understood that her chances of entering the Sword Sect had been completely dashed. She no longer had a chance.
She raised her head and looked at the Lin family in front of her. She understood even more clearly that it was impossible to break through the Lin family's impregnable defense in a short period of time. When she thought of the series of events that would follow one after another, the pressure made her a little breathless.
"What should we do?"
"What should I do next? Without the support of the Sword Sect and Grandpa, what should I do?"
Problems popped up one after another. She realized that she didn't have a single solution to these problems.
As the saying goes, there's a wolf in front and a tiger behind. Right now, the Lin family was fiercely watching her, and her relatives were waiting behind her. She … had nowhere to go.
"Miss?"
"Miss?"
Beside her, Zhao Tianqi saw that Huangfu Jing's expression was absent-minded. He was very worried. As Huangfu Jing's loyal follower, he didn't want anything to happen to Huangfu Jing.
"Ah? W-what's wrong? "Huangfu Jing was roused from her stupor.
"Are we … leaving now? Or … "
Zhao Tianqi understood his Little Mistress's current situation very well. She had offended the Lin family, and the entire Huangfu family was about to be embroiled in a battle for the position of Family Head.
He also knew his Little Mistress's current strength. After the battle with the Lin family, her power had been greatly damaged. Originally, she had thought that after entering the Sword Sect, these losses wouldn't be much, but now …
Haha …
She looked at Zhao Tianqi, hesitation in her eyes. She wasn't willing to let him leave now. She really wasn't willing. As a person who wanted to be strong, how could she bear to give up halfway?
However, when she thought of her current situation, a bitter smile appeared on her face. "Sigh, what else can I do? In this situation, the only thing I can do is leave. I'll slowly gather my strength and come back to fight for what he thinks is mine."
This was probably the only thing she could do now. At the same time, it was also the safest option. If she left now, even her uncles wouldn't be able to stop her.
This time, she was the only one who brought her own power to the Lin family. As for her uncles, they were just tagging along. As for her subordinates? Ha … she didn't bring a single one.
"Then … Let's hurry up and leave before the Lin Clan changes their mind. Otherwise …" Zhao Tianqi inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief when he got the chance to leave. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see the current situation clearly.
"Okay …"
She nodded in response. Her eyes scanned the surroundings. Her family members were eyeing her covetously. At this moment, she wanted these people to remember that when the Queen returned, she would make these people pay back thousands of times over.
After receiving his Little Mistress's final confirmation, Zhao Tianqi took action. As Huangfu Jing's right-hand man, he quickly organized Huangfu Jing's forces.
"Jing, what are you …?"
When the surrounding Huangfu family members saw Huangfu Jing's actions, they originally thought that she was planning to attack the Lin family again. But now … they sensed that something was wrong.
She was going to f * cking run away. A few of the smarter ones had already realized this.
"Sigh, I'm sorry, uncles. Due to some matters, I have to leave now to deal with them." Huangfu Jing knew very well what her uncles were thinking.
She sneered in her heart, but on the surface, she was very calm. "Niece believes that even without me, I believe that all the uncles here will continue to fight with the Lin Family to save grandfather. After all, all the aristocratic families are watching now."
"Our Huangfu family has made such a big move this time. If we don't get the old man out, I'm afraid the Huangfu family will become the laughing stock of the entire Yan Country. At that time …"
"When that happens, our Huangfu family will be in an awkward position. Not to mention the Imperial Family, I'm afraid it will have a great impact on our Huangfu family's business."
Everyone: "…"
After Huangfu Jing spoke, everyone was stunned. Then, a murderous intent flashed.
Without a doubt, Huangfu Jing's words had pushed the Huangfu family into the eye of the storm. She had pushed them into the eye of the storm as well. If they retreated now, it would probably end up like what Huangfu Jing had said.
At this moment, everyone in the Huangfu family hated Huangfu Jing to the core. They couldn't wait to get rid of her.
But … could they?
They couldn't.
Under the watchful eyes of so many people, if they made a move now, their reputation in the Yan Country would be ruined. This was something they didn't want to see.
Seeing everyone's silence, Huangfu Jing knew that she had achieved what she wanted. She didn't want to stay any longer. She bowed to everyone and led her forces out of the battle.
Only the Huangfu family members were left in front of the Lin family's door. Huangfu Jing left quickly, without any hesitation.
The situation fell into an awkward state. Now, the Huangfu family members who were in front of the Lin family's door all had their own ulterior motives. Everyone began to plan in their hearts.
No one wanted to make a move at this time. After all, it would damage their family's forces. In the end, if they really wanted to fight for the position of the family head, they would be at a disadvantage.
"What should we do?"
"Bastard, how could she do this? This little girl still doesn't forget to stab us in the back."
"Bastard, this little girl actually …"
Towards Huangfu Jing, towards this niece of theirs, they couldn't wait to kill her.
In the cave of the Divine Valley, Lin Ray, who had been silent for a long time, finally decided to leave.
"Let's leave. After all, the things here won't be out of tune. It seems that I have to quickly improve my cultivation during this period. Otherwise, I don't know if the things here will be intact when I come back."
"Master, where are we going now?" In the distance, seeing that Lin Ray didn't understand, Xue Lingtian carefully asked.
"Leave!"
"Hmm? Leave … "
Lin Ray's words stunned Xue Lingtian. He clearly hadn't expected Lin Ray to make such a choice.
In Xue Lingtian's mind, he had always believed that Lin Ray would do everything in his power to enter and obtain the things inside.
But now, it was a different situation …
"Yes, leave." Looking at Xue Lingtian, a smile appeared on Xue Lingtian's face. "This place isn't something we can touch for now. Let's leave first. Once our cultivation recovers a bit, we'll come back again. I trust that next time, we won't return empty-handed like today."
Lin Ray had made up his mind. Xue Lingtian knew that nothing he said could change Lin Ray's mind.
But what Xue Lingtian didn't know was that besides not having the strength to do so, Lin Ray also had a trace of worry in his heart.
It was none other than Liu Changtian. It had been a while since he had entered, and he didn't know if his disciple had been obedient or not.
"Let's go!"
Stepping forward, he waved his hand at Xue Lingtian and followed the original path out of the cave.
Just like when they had entered, there were many demon beasts along the way. But because of the Bloodwyrm, those demon beasts didn't dare act rashly.
Lin Ray's figure finally appeared at the entrance of the cave. A ray of sunlight shone down on Lin Ray's face.
Feeling the warmth of the sunlight, Lin Ray truly wished that he could stay in this moment forever. Unfortunately … he knew that was just wishful thinking.
"I'm here."
He could sense that the Blood Spirit Sky had followed him here. The Blood Spirit Sky was Linley's greatest pride. Although he hadn't been able to retrieve the items from the second cave estate, Linley was already satisfied that he had been able to tame the Bloodwyrm.
As the saying went, contentment brought happiness. A person who didn't understand contentment would end up with nothing.
"Where are we going now?" Xue Lingtian asked.
"Accompany me to find someone. I originally wanted to let that person gain some experience, but now I just hope he doesn't encounter any danger."
Truth.
Lin Ray still didn't dare to compliment Liu Changtian's cultivation. After all, it was just a tiny bit. The Bloodwyrm could probably kill Liu Changtian with a sweep of the floor.
"How … is it very weak?"
Lin Ray was speechless.
Lin Ray was helpless against Xue Lingtian's straightforwardness. However, Xue Lingtian wasn't wrong. Liu Changtian was indeed very weak. Of course, it depended on who he was with.
If compared to the people in this realm, Liu Changtian might not be the strongest, but he was at least below average.
But in front of Lin Ray or Xue Lingtian, Liu Changtian was just a piece of trash. Oh … no, not a piece of trash, but worse than a piece of trash.
It wasn't belittling, but Liu Changtian's cultivation was just too weak in the Cultivation World.
Looking at Xue Lingtian, Lin Ray nodded helplessly. "It's okay. After all, in this world, it can barely be considered below average!"
"Average … Below average?"
He looked at Lin Ray with a strange gaze. Clearly, he was surprised that Lin Ray could travel with such a person.
"Heh, don't look down on him. That little thing's bloodline is very powerful. Otherwise, I wouldn't have accepted him as my disciple."
"You … He's your disciple?" Xue Lingtian was shocked. He knew how powerful Lin Ray's cultivation was. To be able to become Lin Ray's disciple, even if he didn't have monstrous authority, he could still do whatever he wanted in the Divine World.
"Heh, enough. Let's go quickly. The situation might change if we delay." After saying that, Lin Ray used the Butterfly Steps. His figure danced in the air like a butterfly and flew away.
"Bastard, wait until I cultivate my human nature. I'll definitely make you give me that movement technique." Seeing Lin Ray disappear in the air, Xue Lingtian's eyes were filled with fervor.
Who wouldn't like good things? Not to mention, it was an ancient demonic beast that had gained intelligence.
In the air, looking at the surrounding terrain and recalling the route he took earlier, his cultivation rose again and his speed increased by another level.
Whoosh …
A ray of light slashed through the skies. On the ground, the Blood Spirit Sky's enormous body was twisting as it chased after the flying Linley.
… … …
Not too far away from where Linley was flying, a series of explosions could be heard.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
"Bastard, you dare to sneak attack me when I'm cultivating? Are you courting death?" Looking at the demonic tiger in front of him, Liu Changtian's face was filled with seriousness.
Even with his current cultivation, he couldn't see through the demonic tiger's cultivation. It was obvious that the other party's strength wasn't something he could fight against.
But now, other than fighting, there was no other way. Escape?
Ha, Liu Changtian had thought of this before. But when this thought appeared, Liu Changtian decisively gave up. A demonic beast's speed was much faster than a human's. Moreover, its cultivation was stronger than his. How could he escape?
As for fighting, although this decision was stupid, he had no other choice. Only by fighting could he have a glimmer of hope.
At the same time, looking at the demonic tiger in front of him, he silently prayed that his master, Lin Ray, could arrive as soon as possible.
"Master, you better hurry up and come. Otherwise, your precious disciple, I, will die."
His eyes scanned the surroundings and finally locked onto the demonic tiger. He released his cultivation and his body's battle intent soared to the sky.
"Hmm? This is … "
In the distance, feeling the huge battle intent, Lin Ray was stunned. He thought to himself, "Oh no, could it be that the little guy is in danger?"
