In the icy chill, Youying pressed his chest wound with a cold face, listening to the people opposite him repeatedly talking about a complete corpse, and felt only irony.
Little thief?
Oh.
The Linglong Fruit was an unclaimed treasure; he was only discovered by these people when he was picking it.
As a result, they began to hunt him down.
They kept saying that this was Yunlai Sect's territory, and that the Linglong Fruit also belonged to the Yunlai Sect.
He was unaware that the Qian'an Forest had come under the control of the Yunlai Sect.
It's just nearby.
They only wanted to bully him and take away his Linglong Fruit because they saw that he was weak and alone.
But the Youying is no pushover either.
He swallowed the Linglong Fruit Linglong Fruit whole, and took the entire tree with him, leaving them not a single branch or leaf.
There were three ripe fruits on the Linglong Fruit, all of which he had already swallowed. There were also five unripe green fruits, which would surely ripen eventually if given enough time to mature.
But he never expected that the people of the Yunlai Sect could be so shameless.
The Linglong Fruit is a primordial spiritual fruit, and they actually sent many people to hunt him down for this one Linglong Fruit.
Left with no other choice, Youying had to kill several members of the Yunlai Sect and flee.
But this killing...
This is a big problem!
Among those he killed was the grandson of an elder of the Yunlai Sect.
And he is the only, favored, and sole grandson!
This has really stirred up a hornet's nest for Youying.
When the people from the Yunlai Sect chased after him, he fled.
Even now, he's reached his limit.
If this continues, not only will the Yunlai Sect not let him go, but his injuries might even kill him...
Thinking of this, Youying gritted his teeth and racked his brains for a way to break the deadlock. But as the people from the Yunlai Sect got closer and closer, the snow under his feet was stained with his blood and melted a part of it. His mind was still blank, and he had no idea how to break the deadlock.
He only consumed three Linglong Fruit, which is why he was so lucky to leap directly to the Thearch Realm.
However, the Yunlai Sect sent seven pursuers to capture him.
All seven were at the Thearch Realm.
He had absolutely no chance of winning.
There was absolutely no chance of winning, and even those who knew him were unaware of his current location, not to mention where the people in the pavilion had all scattered to...
Even if Youying pinned her hopes on the Pavilion Master to save her, it would be impossible.
He gritted his teeth and swallowed a mouthful of bloody saliva, feeling his throat go dry.
what to do...
what to do?
Am I really going to perish here?
That's some serious bad luck in my life!
Thinking of this, Youying felt a pang of bitterness. He watched the group of people approaching, his fingertips touching the token in his pocket, a resolute glint in his eyes.
There's no other way!
Now, all we can do is try anything, even if it seems hopeless.
He gritted his teeth, suddenly pulled out the token from his pocket, raised it high, and let out an angry shout.
"Let's see who dares to touch me!"
"I am the Ninth Sword Master of the Sword Pavilion. If any of you dare to harm me today, I will immediately crush your token. When the Pavilion Master finds out, he will surely avenge me and hunt down your Yunlai Sect to avenge my hatred!"
"Get out of here!"
The leader, Yunlai Sect Thearch Realm, looked coldly at Youying, his eyes filled with mockery.
He wondered what Youying was up to. Seeing Youying's actions earlier, he thought the other party had some hidden plan and was going to fight him to the death, but he never expected...
The other party was simply fabricating such an outrageous lie.
ha!
He immediately sneered, "You? Sword Pavilion? Ha... Now that Sword Pavilion is famous, even the most insignificant Tom, Dick, and Harry dares to try and ride on its coattails."
"You keep talking about the Sword Pavilion, but do you even know what kind of power Sword Pavilion is? Even we Divine Lords would give way to the figures in the Sword Pavilion. Just a few days ago, the Sword Pavilion Master even helped my Taiyu suppress the Mingli and annihilate the Great Saint Mingli. That Pavilion Master was a figure like an immortal. How dare you, a mere Thearch Realm, call yourself the Sword Master of the Sword Pavilion?"
"That's absolutely hilarious!"
What!?
Upon hearing this person's words, Youying was visibly stunned for a moment.
He had no other choice but to resort to such a threat, but he never expected that what the man from the Yunlai Sect said would be completely unexpected.
Sword Pavilion... Great Saint!? Suppression? What is all this...?
He was in a daze, not reacting to the words of the Yunlai Sect Thearch Realm for the time being. But his blank expression, in the eyes of the Yunlai Sect Thearch Realm expert, meant that Youying knew he had been exposed and was therefore feeling guilty...
However, before he could say anything more, he heard his companion behind him speak hesitantly.
"Elder... that jade token in that person's hand... it seems to be real..."
The appearance of the Sword Pavilion Jade Token had already spread throughout the Taiyu Divine Dynasty.
This was something Lin Xuan did intentionally.
Only in this way could he quickly let the members of his faction know that he was there.
Since I can't find them one by one quickly, I might as well make a name for myself and let them come to me.
However, even Lin Xuan probably didn't expect that the first person to use the Sword Pavilion Jade Token would be Youying.
Moreover, it still has this effect.
Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder of the Yunlai Sect subconsciously looked at the jade token in Youying's hand.
He hadn't looked closely at first, but now, looking again, it seems... maybe... it really is true?
In an instant, he broke out in a cold sweat.
No way...
Could it be that he really offended the people of the Sword Pavilion?
In the Taiyu Divine Dynasty, Sword Pavilion is now a household name.
Who is the leader of that pavilion?
Great Saint Sage!
Someone who can stand on equal footing with the gods!
This, this...
But what if a token is a counterfeit...?
Although she didn't know exactly what was going on, Youying's mind worked quickly.
Clinging desperately to his last hope, he shouted, "I am the Ninth Sword Master of the Sword Pavilion, without a doubt, and if you don't believe me, then send someone with me to the imperial city!"
If I am a fake, you can do whatever you want with me!
His tone was resolute and extremely firm.
Their attitude changed drastically in an instant, and the initial despair was gone.
He didn't quite understand the rest, but he clearly heard the words "on equal footing with the God Lord" and "Great Saint Powerhouse".
Seeing the wavering faces of the several Thearch Realm from the Yunlai Sect, Youying added another drastic measure, "If you kill me now, the Sword Pavilion's jade tablet contains a unique Soul-Chasing Secret Technique belonging to our Sword Pavilion. The Pavilion Master will immediately know of my death."
"If you don't believe me, feel free to try it!"
That's obviously false.
But Youying is betting that these people won't dare to try.
If the Pavilion Master is truly the Great Saint powerhouse they claim to be, he is certain that these people would not dare to easily harm him.
And as long as they let you see the Pavilion Master...
Then I'll be safe!
Looking at Youying's desperate expression, the Grand Elder of the Yunlai Sect felt his resolve completely shift.
As Youying said, he dared not.
But he wasn't sure whether what Youying said was true or false.
Moreover, that jade pendant is indeed genuine.
Today, they have misjudged him. They never expected that a mere Rogue Cultivator could have such a background.
No...
How could someone from the Sword Pavilion be considered Rogue Cultivator?
The elder gritted his teeth and forced a smile onto his face.
"Well, it's a misunderstanding... it's all a misunderstanding! This is truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple..."
Having said that, seeing that Youying remained unmoved, he felt even more pained, but had no choice but to say, "This matter is the fault of our Yunlai Sect. We are willing to make compensation, please... please be lenient!"
That's Sword Pavilion, you know...
How could Yunlai Sect, a mere first- or second-rate sect, possibly afford to offend them!
If it's called compensation, then it is compensation.
Youying remained wary and cautious, and did not accept the invitation from the Grand Elder of the Yunlai Sect. Instead, she ordered them to send the compensation directly here.
Even when he finally received the compensation, he was still somewhat incredulous.
So, I've gotten through this hurdle myself...?
In the end, the sect leader didn't appear, but it was still the sect leader who saved him.
Thinking about it, Youying couldn't help but look towards the location of the Taiyu Divine Dynasty's imperial city.
Is the Pavilion Master there...?
