Chapter 119 Ghost Spirit Sect Nascent Soul Cultivator: Wang Chan's Mother
"The cultivators of the Ghost Spirit Sect in Tianluo Kingdom are skilled in exorcising ghosts and commanding demons, and are also proficient in poisons and some clandestine arts. Although they are ranked low, they are not to be trifled with by cultivators from other countries. Among those of the same level, few can rival them."
Lin Yue said calmly.
His target this time was Wang Chan, the young sect leader of the Ghost Spirit Sect. Therefore, he had a good understanding of the Ghost Spirit Sect, especially the two Wang brothers who came to protect him.
Both brothers are Core Formation stage cultivators and are quite famous in the cultivation world. When they join forces, they are enough to rival a mid-Core Formation stage cultivator.
It is said that he was once seriously injured and escaped from the hands of a late-stage Core Formation cultivator from the Righteous Path Haoran Pavilion, which greatly enhanced his reputation.
This is also why the Ghost Spirit Sect Master sent two people to protect Wang Chan, the young sect master.
Lin Yue sensed that this time was different from before; there might be more than just the two Wang brothers who came to protect him. There should be others among them.
After all, with the help of the seven factions of Yue, the states of Cheqi and Jiang have not been quietly taken over, and fierce battles are taking place.
Many disciples from the seven sects have already been sent to provide support, but Han Li and Zhang Tie have not yet gone, one because of him and the other because he is the number one talisman-making master of Huangfeng Valley.
However, according to Hong Fu, even with the help of the seven factions, the Kingdom of Cheqi and the Kingdom of Jiang would not be able to hold out for long.
After all, most of the cultivation sects and families in the country have already surrendered. Less than one-tenth of them have not surrendered. Under these circumstances, there is no way to win.
So it will soon fall into the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom, which is why Hong Fu Hui agreed.
Just as Lin Yue was pondering whether other high-level cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect would arrive, the little girl Yan Ling showed a look of indignation on her face after hearing his words.
"Who said that? The elders have already summoned the disciples of the martial arts hall to which my brother belongs. Those are the elite disciples of our Yan family who have learned secret techniques. They will definitely teach these people a lesson."
"You're overthinking it."
Lin Yue retorted without any politeness.
"you!"
Upon hearing this, the little girl's face flushed red, and she said angrily.
Yan Yu's gaze toward Lin Yue grew increasingly hostile. Was this how a guest should behave?
"Brother Yan, would it be convenient for you to go and observe the competition there?"
Sensing the awkward atmosphere, Dong Xuan'er smiled and softly requested.
"Of course, Junior Sister Dong, please."
Upon hearing this, Yan Yu smiled broadly and extended an invitation.
Compared to Lin Yue, he found Dong Xuan'er much more pleasing to the eye. It was a pity that such a beauty was in the other man's arms, which made him quite unwilling, yet he was helpless.
Thank you.
Seeing this, Lin Yue smiled nonchalantly and led Dong Xuan'er to the crowd watching.
At this time, there were more than a hundred cultivators watching, and judging from their attire, most of them were not local cultivators from Yue Kingdom, but people from other countries, which was enough to prove that Yan Family Fort had a wide circle of friends.
Just as they landed, an untimely voice rang out.
"Xuan'er, you're here too! Who is he?"
A man looked at Dong Xuan'er in Lin Yue's arms, his expression changed drastically, and he questioned her.
"roll!"
Lin Yue only replied with a single, nonchalant word, yet it carried an unquestionable tone that made the man tremble with fear. He wanted to make a move, but upon seeing Lin Yue's icy gaze, he immediately became frightened, his face turning ashen as he turned and left.
Upon seeing this, Yan Yu glanced at Lin Yue with a newfound sense of vigilance.
Yan Ling stared at Lin Yue for a while, as if trying to find something, but unfortunately Lin Yue completely ignored the little girl.
Meanwhile, Yan Yu's cousin had already engaged in combat with the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators.
He wielded earth-attribute Taoist arts with unparalleled skill.
The millstone-sized rocks, each over ten feet in size, were thrown out of his palm in a frenzy, crashing towards the opposite side as if there were no end in sight.
A triangular yellow banner was erected in front of him, summoning a yellow wind that enveloped him completely, providing him with thorough protection.
The Ghost Spirit Sect cultivator paid no attention, but he was not careless either. Several jet-black wisps of energy emerged from his body, whistling and dancing like venomous snakes, weaving an impenetrable black net in front of him, deflecting all the rocks back. Sometimes the rocks bounced right back to the other side, making the Yan family elite a little flustered.
As for the ritual implements, there were six or seven white skulls floating around it, their purpose still unknown.
And so, with one person launching a fierce attack and the other silently defending, a stalemate was temporarily formed!
"See? I told you my cousin was incredibly strong! It was only a matter of time before this demonic cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect was defeated."
Yanling gave a soft snort.
"His strength is astounding, forget it. Defeat was inevitable sooner or later, so just admit defeat now and save yourself some face."
Lin Yue shook his head and said calmly.
"you!"
Upon hearing this, Yanling's face flushed red, both angry and annoyed.
"In that case, why don't I, Yan, make a bet with Brother Li?"
Seeing this, Yan Yu couldn't stand it any longer and said coldly.
"Oh! What does Fellow Daoist Yan want to bet on?"
Lin Yue chuckled lightly.
"If your cousin wins, you should apologize to Ling'er. If your cousin loses, I can grant you one request, as long as it's not too unreasonable."
Yan Yu's expression turned serious, and she said.
"Not interested."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue glanced at Yan Yu and shook his head.
"What, are you afraid of losing?"
Yanling sneered.
"I'm not afraid. It's just that the conditions your brother mentioned are completely useless to me. Why should I agree to them?"
Lin Yue considered for a moment, then offered a slightly tactful explanation, "Okay, what do you want?"
Having almost been called a piece of trash, Yan Yu couldn't stand it anymore and said coldly.
"It's nothing. You can't help me with anything anyway, and you're bound to lose, so don't bet on it and just humiliate yourselves."
Lin Yue said bluntly, his patience gradually running out.
"You're just afraid of losing, aren't you!"
Yanling said sarcastically.
"Alright! Let's take a gamble, but your brother alone isn't enough, you have to be included too."
Seeing this, Lin Yue glanced at Yan Ling and smiled.
"Okay, it's a deal."
Upon hearing this, Yanling agreed without hesitation, leaving Yanyu no chance to stop her.
He always felt that Lin Yue had ill intentions, but he couldn't stop him, so he could only hope that his cousin would win.
"It's a deal, Xuan'er is my witness."
Lin Yue nodded and smiled with satisfaction.
"Okay, I'll be your witness."
Upon hearing this, Dong Xuan'er smiled and said.
"snort!"
Seeing this, Yan Ling snorted and ignored the two, continuing to focus on the Yan family members and the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators in the arena.
She had a vague feeling that Lin Yue had ill intentions, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
After all, Lin Yue already has a female companion, so there's no way he would be interested in her.
At this moment, the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivators who had been on the defensive let out a few strange laughs and made their move.
"Kid, you think you can show off in front of me with just a little bit of poisonous mist? You're courting death!"
After saying that, he raised his hand and quickly struck the tops of the skulls. The skulls immediately swelled to the size of cartwheels, and a layer of black mist faintly enveloped the white skulls, making them look even more ferocious and eerie.
They absorbed all the remaining black energy in one go, and then opened their mouths wide again to suck in the green mist that had been blocking the way. With each breath, they grew a little larger, as if they had been nourished.
"This—how is this possible!"
This scene caused Yan Ling, who had been quite confident, to lose her composure.
"When it comes to poisons, the Ghost Spirit Sect are the real experts. Remember our bet? Xuan'er and I are leaving now."
After chuckling, Lin Yue put his arm around Dong Xuan'er and left the crowd.
"What's with the arrogance! It's not even certain who will win or lose yet."
Yanling's face flushed red with anger.
However, what happened next deflated her. Several skulls on either side of the Ghost Spirit Sect cultivator opened their mouths at the same time, and several jet-black beams of light shot out simultaneously, converging into a giant beam of light that instantly pierced a large hole in the Yan family's protective Yellow Wind.
He fainted instantly with a "thud" and fell from the sky.
"Damn it, he actually won!"
Yanling stomped her feet in anger.
Subsequently, the elder in charge of the Yan family and Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, appeared one after the other, bringing the competition to a close.
Unsurprisingly, Yan Family Fort suffered a crushing defeat!
After enjoying the spectacle, the other cultivators who were watching also quietly disappeared without saying a word.
Lin Yue, along with Dong Xuan'er, inquired with passersby and then headed to a tea infuser shop in Yanjiabao.
The teahouse has three floors. The first floor is inhabited by ordinary people who have no magical powers whatsoever.
Although there are some cultivators on the second floor, most of them are at the Qi Refining stage, while the third floor is for Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.
However, they split into two groups: one group consisted of cultivators from the seven major sects, and the other group was composed of cultivators from other countries, dressed in a chaotic and disorganized manner.
There were only five cultivators from the seven major sects, but they were all sitting at a table, talking quietly about something, appearing rather intimate.
Although there were seven or eight visiting cultivators, they mostly sat at tables of one or two, sipping their tea with indifferent expressions, without whispering or talking to each other.
Lin Yue and Dong Xuan'er did not go to the Seven Sects, but instead sat alone at the tea table where only one person was present.
This person was none other than Hongfen, but she had disguised herself and was no longer as beautiful and charming as before.
"Why did you come in person?"
Seeing this, Lin Yue took the teacup handed to him by Hongfen, took a sip, and said.
"I didn't want to either, but this time the Ghost Spirit Sect actually sent a Nascent Soul cultivator. To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, I had no choice but to come in person."
Hongfen glanced at Dong Xuan'er, who was full of curiosity and a hint of panic, and then parted her red lips to explain.
"Does the Nascent Soul cultivator from the Ghost Spirit Sect know where he is?"
Upon hearing this, Dong Xuan'er turned pale, and Lin Yue's expression also darkened.
Although he believed he was confident in dealing with Nascent Soul cultivators, he couldn't be truly certain until he actually faced one.
"I don't know, and I don't even know who it is, but I can confirm that there are indeed Nascent Soul cultivators from the Ghost Spirit Sect who have come."
The woman gently shook her head.
"I never expected the Ghost Spirit Sect to be so cautious."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yue's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
"It's because your Seven Sects Ranking, Cheqi Kingdom, and Jiang Kingdom affected the plans of the Six Sects, causing considerable losses. Naturally, the Ghost Spirit Sect is worried. However, you don't need to worry about anything. As long as you don't provoke them, they naturally won't provoke you either. This Yan Family Fortress originally belonged to the Ghost Spirit Sect; it's just returning to the Ghost Spirit Sect now."
"This is what I'm trying to comfort you with my soft voice," Hongfen said.
"That being said, I originally planned to talk to the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, but now it seems that's impossible. Plans really can't keep up with changes."
Lin Yue said with a headache, "It's not worth fighting a Nascent Soul cultivator for the sake of Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect."
"Since it's impossible, let's not talk about it. Besides, doing so will probably only anger the Ghost Spirit Sect," Hongfen continued.
"This younger sister must be a descendant of Elder Yunlu! She is indeed stunningly beautiful, no less so than her older sister."
The woman shifted the topic to Dong Xuan'er, who was terrified and pale.
"Xuan'er greets Senior."
Upon hearing this, Dong Xuan'er glanced at the others and said respectfully.
"Sister, you flatter me. Just call me Sister Hongfen. When you return, Elder Yunlu will surely accept you as a disciple. I hope you will take good care of me in the sect from now on."
Hongfen giggled.
"You're too kind, senior."
Facing a Core Formation stage cultivator, Dong Xuan'er naturally dared not act as spoiled, domineering, or unreasonable as she did with others.
"Hmm! When does my younger sister plan to return to the sect with me?"
Hongfen was quite satisfied with Dong Xuan'er's attitude and then inquired about the important matter.
"This junior wishes to watch the Treasure Hunt before heading to the Joyful Union Sect."
Dong Xuan'er thought for a moment and then told her the time.
"The treasure hunt is probably out of the question."
The woman gently shook her head.
"What's wrong? Is something about to happen?"
Dong Xuan'er's heart tightened.
"Indeed, if I am not mistaken, the participation of the disciples of the seven sects in this treasure hunt will be Yan Family Fortress's pledge of allegiance to the Ghost Spirit Sect."
Hongfen's tone turned cold as she spoke.
"What?!"
Dong Xuan'er turned pale and cried out in surprise.
"My son, what are you thinking about?"
A gentle and moving voice slowly rang out in the VIP room of Yanjiabao.
The person who spoke was a stunningly beautiful woman, impeccably beautiful, with an exquisitely beautiful face, flawless skin, and hair piled high, making her look like a celestial fairy.
The beautiful woman was none other than the mother of Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, and the wife of the sect leader, a beauty who was once the most beautiful woman in the Tianluo Kingdom.
"Mother, do you think Yan Family Fort will agree? Now, Cheqi Kingdom and Jiang Kingdom have suffered consecutive defeats."
Wang Chan, the young master of the Ghost Spirit Sect, wore a silver ghost mask, but his voice was gentle and deep, making him seem very young.
"No matter what, we must subdue Yan Family Fort this time. Yan Ruyan is the key to your cultivation of the Blood Spirit Great Art, and there must be absolutely no mistakes."
"Even if we can't subdue her, Yan Ruyan must be brought back to the sect to cultivate the Blood Spirit Great Art with you. As for Cheqi Kingdom and Jiang Kingdom, their defeats should be the headaches for Tian Sha Sect and Qian Huan Sect, not us."
The beautiful woman shook her head slightly and sneered.
"Yes! Mother is right. If it weren't for the unexpected events in Cheqi Kingdom and Jiang Kingdom, Father wouldn't have asked Mother to accompany me here personally. I hope nothing unexpected happens."
Wang Chan said with slight unease.
"Are you worried that the Seven Factions are already lying in ambush near Yan Family Fort, just waiting for us to be captured?"
The beautiful woman chuckled softly.
They seemed completely unconcerned.
