Liu Rumei sneered, her words quite merciless.
She has always been arrogant.
Let alone the Heaven-Gazing Sacred Sect, which inherited less than half of the Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect's foundation, even if it were the Heaven-Gazing Sacred Sect at its peak, she might not look up to it and become a Holy Maiden.
If the domain lord were to personally accept her as a disciple, perhaps she might be willing.
When Liu Rumei's words reached Elder Li's ears, the smile in her eyes vanished instantly.
Her expression changed, and she immediately let out a low shout.
"You don't know what's good for you!"
She had seen far too many exceptional talents.
They were all arrogant and proud.
However, there are very few people who dare to speak so arrogantly in front of her.
Some of them are already dead!
It should be understood that only those who have grown up can be called geniuses.
A prodigy who doesn't grow up isn't even worth a handful of yellow earth!
At this age, with such vigorous vitality, he is probably no more than thirty or forty years old, most likely around twenty. To be able to achieve the Middle Stage of the Saint Realm is truly remarkable.
However powerful he may be, he is still only a Saint Realm expert.
It's completely impossible for them to contend with her, the Great Saint.
"Since you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me for showing you no mercy." Elder Li's eyes flashed coldly, a hint of killing intent in them.
If a prodigy cannot be used by you, then you absolutely cannot let him leave before your eyes.
Even if they survive, their natural talent must be destroyed.
Otherwise, if she grows up, she will become the next Luo Qingxue of the Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect.
Although she didn't care and didn't think Luo Qingxue could compare to the prodigy of her Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect, it gave Cinnabar Cloud Sword Sect the capital to try to challenge the prestige of their Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect.
Moreover, being resented by a prodigy is a rather terrifying thing.
Countless cases have occurred in the Central Continent where individuals harbored resentment towards powerful figures, secretly amassed strength, and then turned the tables on their enemies.
Elder Li was cautious, and having witnessed firsthand how extraordinary Liu Rumei at such a young age, he would never let her go.
She immediately raised her hand.
A hint of seriousness flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes.
The Scarlet Fire Spirit Pearl was the source of all the conflict.
Tsk...
If only I had known there would be Great Saint...
The thought flashed through her mind, but she quickly suppressed it.
Liu Rumei sighed softly in her heart.
Even if she had known that this trip would provoke the Great Saint, she probably still wouldn't have given up the Scarlet Fire Spirit Pearl.
This treasure greatly enhanced her cultivation level.
Even if she doesn't obtain the inheritance of Heaven-Gazing Ridge, the improvement brought to her by the Scarlet Fire Spirit Pearl alone will make this trip worthwhile.
Regardless of the circumstances, it was one of her trump cards in fulfilling her three-year promise.
She won't hand it over.
We won't miss it.
so...
"If you want war, then let's fight!"
A sharp glint flashed in Liu Rumei's eyes.
She will not let anyone who stands in her way of becoming stronger get away with it.
Even the Great Saint.
Even if it's someone she can't beat...
She won't back down!
Elder Li was even more enraged by Liu Rumei's reaction.
With a wave of her hand, she unleashed a powerful aura, directly pressuring Liu Rumei.
Born into the Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect, Elder Li's methods are far beyond what ordinary Great Saint can match.
Almost simultaneously with her waving hand to exert pressure on Liu Rumei, almost everyone felt the vibration emanating from the void.
The air around us had become thin.
A giant hand slammed down from the sky, seemingly casual, clearly intending to kill Liu Rumei!
This strike was delivered with full force, showing no mercy whatsoever.
The Saint Realm experts who had been besieging Liu Rumei had long since retreated to the side.
Originally, when Elder Li tried to recruit Liu Rumei into the Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect, their expressions were not very pleasant, especially those disciples of the Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect who were watching but had not made a move.
But to their surprise, Liu Rumei refused!
This is tantamount to suicide!
Then they all sneered.
"Does she really think she's some kind of heavenly princess? Just because she has a little talent, she's already getting too arrogant. How laughable! With her Saint Realm body, she dares to try and contend with the methods of Great Saint? I think she doesn't even know the meaning of death!"
"Although Elder Li is not an elder in our sect, we have all heard of his formidable methods. The Heaven-Viewing Saint Sect is the number one sect in our Heaven-Gazing Domain. Elder Li personally recruited you, yet you refused. I think you deserve to die."
"That's right, those who don't know what's good for them deserve to die."
"I think she's really tired of living. She thinks that with some tricks she can fight us to a draw, she can face a strongman like Elder Li. Tsk tsk tsk, she's truly a newborn calf that doesn't fear a tiger!"
"..."
In just a few words.
There are all sorts of opinions.
Liu Rumei kept a cold face, not even bothering to glance at her.
She hissed under her breath, "Shut up!"
Then, he simply forgot about them.
At the same time, her aura also rapidly intensified.
This made Elder Li raise his eyebrows.
"Oh?"
Liu Rumei paid no attention to anyone else. She narrowed her eyes, knowing full well that this would be a tough battle.
but...
It doesn't matter.
The Liu Household's Secret Technique allows her to instantly raise her cultivation level and maintain it for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Even if she can't defeat or kill her opponent, she can still escape her current predicament.
This is also her trump card!
She had almost never used this Secret Technique, nor had she ever revealed it to anyone.
Even most members of the Liu Lineage were unaware that she had already mastered this Secret Technique.
Now, for the first time...
"Drink!"
With a low shout, silvery-white lotus petals bloomed, and a magnificent silver fox with smooth fur suddenly appeared in the sky. It leaped down from the clouds and stood in front of Liu Rumei, its nine tails swaying gently.
boom!
The fox's tail and its large paws collided.
It's a direct offset!
Liu Rumei blocked it!
Her face was slightly pale, but a smile played on her lips.
"I'm not some pushover..."
Before she could finish speaking, her expression suddenly changed. Her eyes widened in disbelief, her breath rapidly weakened, and she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood!
Elder Li was also somewhat shocked.
She hadn't expected that this little girl could actually block her attack.
talent...
That's almost too good to be true!
but!
"Madness."
Elder Li suddenly laughed, a hint of arrogance in his smile.
You think you can escape my grasp?
"That was Secret Technique, wasn't it? Hehehe... Little girl, I am the Great Saint. Do you really think that the Great Saint's methods are so easy to counter?"
Liu Rumei was weak and unsteady.
She wiped the blood from her lips, a bitter smile playing on her lips.
It really is...
They've hit a brick wall.
However, things are far from the worst they could get.
She just wanted to test her chances against the Great Saint, given how fast Ye Hao's cultivation had progressed.
She had to prepare for the worst: that by the time the three-year agreement expired, the other party would have already broken through to the Great Saint!
Now it seems...
I'm still not good enough.
Even if she reached the Late Saint Realm, or even the Half-Step Great Saint, she would still be unable to contend with her.
The gap between their levels is simply insurmountable.
With a thousand thoughts swirling in her mind, Liu Rumei took a deep breath and immediately prepared to use Secret Technique to escape.
She's not stupid; she won't fight to the death even if she can't win.
However, Elder Li saw through Liu Rumei's intentions.
She gave a cold laugh.
"Want to leave?"
"Daydreaming!"
"Seal it!"
