"It seems Lu Ren has inherited the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy!"
"That guy must have only obtained the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy because the cave mansion's energy was insufficient!"
"I wonder how many treasures Lu Ren got from the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe!"
Many people were discussing it animatedly, filled with envy and jealousy. Who would have thought that someone with a Scrap Bloodline would ultimately receive the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy.
"Did Lu Ren really get the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy?"
Meng Qian stared intently at the entrance of the cave mansion, his face filled with anticipation.
Receiving the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy was a minor matter. The most important thing was whether his bloodline talent could be improved.
And then, under everyone's expectant gaze, a figure slowly emerged from the cave mansion.
"It's Lu Ren!"
Meng Qian was startled and burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha, Lu Ren has come out of the cave mansion! He must have received the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy and improved his bloodline talent!"
"Our Qingyun Sect has produced a true dragon!"
Hearing Meng Qian's words, Xie Kuang and the elders from several other sects had extremely grim expressions.
In the past, martial artists who failed the assessment were teleported out. Only Lu Ren walked out.
"Damn it, if that guy really improved his bloodline, and coupled with him being a Person of Divine Enlightenment, who will be able to surpass Lu Ren in the future?"
Killing intent filled Gu Yifan's eyes, along with unconcealed unwillingness and overwhelming anger.
This time, he had thought his junior brother Tang Hao would receive the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy, but unexpectedly, Lu Ren killed him. And Lu Ren even took the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe's legacy.
He was also filled with fear.
Fear of the wrath of his master, the Ghost Sword King.
Meng Qian went to greet him directly, but Lu Ren acted as if he didn't see him, instead walking towards Yun Qingyao and saying, "Master!"
"You've gone too far!"
Yun Qingyao chided him with a smile.
She didn't ask if Lu Ren had successfully improved his bloodline. For her, it was enough that her disciple had returned safely.
"What do you mean, too far?"
Lu Ren looked confused.
"You killed so many people in the cave mansion. At such a young age, you have too much malevolence!"
Yun Qingyao said.
"Master, you know everything that happened in the cave mansion?"
Lu Ren asked in surprise.
"We saw you clear the eight trials and everything that happened in the Tuoshe Plaza very clearly!"
Yun Qingyao replied.
"Hmph, they all wanted to kill me. I, Lu Ren, live my life by the principle that I won't offend others unless they offend me. But if they offend me, I will hunt them down, no matter how far!"
Lu Ren said coldly.
"Lu Ren, you dare to kill my junior brother? You're courting death!"
Suddenly, Gu Yifan leaped out, reaching for Lu Ren with his palm.
Everyone's expressions changed. No one expected Gu Yifan to dare attack Lu Ren in public; he was clearly desperate.
However, before Gu Yifan's hand could get close to Lu Ren.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a sword light flashed.
A miserable scream echoed, like a ghost wailing.
The crowd saw that one of Gu Yifan's right fingers had been cleanly severed, gushing a large amount of blood.
Gu Yifan's face contorted in pain as he clutched his severed finger tightly with his left hand.
"Gu Yifan, you dare to ambush my disciple? If it weren't for the fact that you are the top core disciple of the Imperial Dao Sect, I would have killed you on the spot!"
Yun Qingyao said coldly.
Gu Yifan gritted his teeth and glared venomously at Yun Qingyao. "Yun Qingyao, Lu Ren killed Tang Hao and the successor of my Ghost Sword Gate. You must give me an explanation for this. I'm no match for you, but aren't you afraid of my master?"
Yun Qingyao frowned slightly. "In the cave mansion, life and death are determined by fate. Who can you blame?"
"But he killed the Ghost Sword Successor, my master's most beloved disciple!"
Gu Yifan said coldly.
"Lu Ren killed Tang Hao, the Ghost Sword King probably won't let him go!"
"In the Jiangyun Kingdom, not many people dare to offend the Ghost Sword Gate!"
Many people were discussing the matter.
"Tang Hao and I fought in the Tuoshe Cave Mansion, it was a battle to the death, Tang Hao agreed, others can testify!"
Lu Ren couldn't help but look at the group of Martial Artists beside him.
These Martial Artists were all teleported out of the cave mansion.
Seeing Lu Ren's decisive killing, those Martial Artists were both shocked and fearful of him, not daring to lie, and stated the fact of the life-and-death battle.
"Since it was a battle to the death between both sides, and he was inferior in skill, was I wrong to kill him? Moreover, he threatened to kill me outside the cave mansion, you all heard it!"
Lu Ren was not afraid of Gu Yifan's imposing aura.
"What a cruel kid, you didn't just kill Tang Hao, you also slaughtered over thirty innocent people. Even the Qingyun Sect cannot tolerate such a brutal disciple!"
Seeing Lu Ren's attitude, Xie Kuang couldn't help but roar.
Lu Ren had received the inheritance of the Ancient Emperor Tuoshe, and Gu Yifan was his Imperial Dao Sect's top core disciple. Therefore, he naturally did not want Lu Ren to live and would prefer to find an opportunity to kill him.
"Tang Hao failed to kill me and actually incited others to kill me together. What's wrong with me killing them?"
Lu Ren sneered.
"You!"
Xie Kuang was furious, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood in anger.
Yun Qingyao took a step forward and said coldly, "Elder Xie, you should have heard what my disciple said. Moreover, in the cave mansion, life and death are determined by fate, and you have no right to interfere!"
The disciples of the Four Great Sects were almost all from prominent families, and there were many personal grudges between them.
Therefore, outside the sect, as long as one did not kill people without reason, the Four Great Sects would turn a blind eye.
"But it's a fact that my junior brother died by his hand. If this matter is just let go like this, where is the prestige of my Ghost Sword Gate?"
Gu Yifan said coldly.
The Ghost Sword Gate was not a sect, but a master-disciple lineage. Because of the existence of the Ghost Sword King, it was famous throughout the Jiangyun Kingdom. Everyone knew that the Ghost Sword Successors who came from the Ghost Sword Gate were all geniuses.
As one of the most outstanding successors of the Ghost Sword Sect, Gu Yifan naturally had to defend the prestige of the Ghost Sword Gate.
"So what? My disciple is also a genius of the Qingyun Sect, and more importantly, my disciple. Gu Yifan, you are not qualified to punish my disciple!"
Yun Qingyao's attitude was very firm.
Her disciple could only be disciplined by her; no one else was qualified, not even the Grand Elder of the Imperial Dao Sect.
Then, Yun Qingyao's aura surged again, covering the entire venue, suppressing some of the elders present to the point where they could barely breathe.
"Anyone who dares to harm my disciple will have to ask if I agree!"
With these words, Xie Kuang and Gu Yifan's expressions turned very ugly.
Although Xie Kuang was the Grand Elder of the Imperial Dao Sect and his cultivation had reached the eighth level of the Divine Sea Realm, he was not confident in defeating Yun Qingyao.
Moreover, Yun Qingyao was also the Saintess of the Jiangyun Kingdom, a status that was enough to make him wary.
The Saintess of the Jiangyun Kingdom, even the Sect Masters of the Four Great Sects, would not dare to disrespect her.
