35: Dan Ling's terrifying deterrent power can kill a fourth-level foundation-building cultivator with just one sword!
Qingxia Sect?
Liu Mei, who had stabilized her figure across from him, frowned tightly upon hearing this, then said coldly,
"The top power of the Northern Region, Qingxia Sect? Aren't you currently vying for a Great Secret Realm with two other top powers? Do you still have time to come to the Southern Region of the Great Yan Dynasty?"
Facing Liu Mei's questioning, the old man across from her merely smiled and then said,
"Haha, I didn't say I was going to take this Three-Colored Qingling Flower back to Qingxia Sect."
"What do you mean by that?"
Liu Mei's expression turned unfriendly, and she showed no apprehension despite the other party's higher cultivation.
This Three-Colored Qingling Flower was not only extremely important to her Junior Apprentice Brother Lin, but also to their Qingyun Sect!
"Haha, Fellow Daoist of the Martial King Manor, show yourself. This old man promised to help you obtain this Three-Colored Qingling Flower. As for the brat below, you can deal with him yourselves."
The Foundation Establishment expert of Qingxia Sect did not answer Liu Mei, but instead spoke to someone behind him.
Immediately after, several figures with powerful Qi slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Elder Bai, we'll trouble you with this Three-Colored Qingling Flower. After this is done, our Martial King Manor will surely reward you handsomely!"
The five Foundation Establishment experts from the Martial King Manor who appeared respectfully bowed to the old man from Qingxia Sect, then immediately turned their gazes to Lin Yan below, their eyes filled with palpable killing intent.
"You little bastard, you now have two paths to choose from!"
"One is to submit to my Martial King Manor, and the other is death!"
"Since when did a mere Martial King Manor dare to be so arrogant?"
Boom!
Dan Ling, who was fiercely battling the Three-Patterned Giant Python nearby, immediately blasted the giant python away when she saw that the situation was not right, then came before Lin Yan and stared coldly at the people from the Martial King Manor.
"And you, Qingxia Sect, want to be in cahoots with the Martial King Manor, right? Good, after this matter, I will inform my Revered Master about it!"
"My Revered Master is well aware of your secret dealings with the Martial King Manor."
Even when facing Qingxia Sect, a top power in the Northern Region, Dan Ling showed no fear and directly retorted angrily.
Across from her, the old man from Qingxia Sect frowned tightly upon hearing her words. He naturally knew Dan Ling's identity; she was Dan Xuanzi's only Personal Disciple. It could be said that Dan Xuanzi would do his best to fulfill any of Dan Ling's requests, as long as they could be met.
Moreover, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that behind her stood the Alchemist Association!
That was a colossal entity that even their Qingxia Sect could not afford to provoke!
As soon as he thought of the terrifying consequences of provoking the Alchemist Association, a deep look of apprehension gradually appeared on the old man's face from Qingxia Sect.
Bad luck, truly bad luck!
Roar!
However, just as both sides were in a standoff, the Three-Patterned Giant Python, which Dan Ling had previously sent flying, quickly rushed back. Seeing that the old man from Qingxia Sect was closest to the Three-Colored Qingling Flower, it immediately let out a loud roar and attacked the old man from Qingxia Sect.
"Beast, you're seeking death!"
The old man from Qingxia Sect happened to have nowhere to vent his frustration. Seeing the Three-Patterned Giant Python charge over, he immediately unleashed his full power, causing the giant python to let out cries of pain.
"Fellow Daoist Dan Ling, we have no intention of being enemies with the Alchemist Association."
"This matter is a grievance between our Martial King Manor and this child. We hope Fellow Daoist will not interfere!"
After speaking, the five of them intended to directly make a move, but they were immediately stopped by Dan Ling.
"I don't care. Junior Apprentice Brother Lin is under my protection. If you want to touch him, you'll have to step over my corpse first!"
"This child has a blood feud with our Martial King Manor! He killed our Manor's Young Revered Master Your Highness!"
Across from them, the five Foundation Establishment experts from the Martial King Manor immediately grew anxious; they dared not attack Dan Ling.
"I don't care. I didn't see Junior Apprentice Brother Lin kill your Manor's Young Revered Master."
"Perhaps your Manor's Young Revered Master Your Highness was weak and frail, and accidentally fell to his death while walking."
Damn it!
Upon hearing Dan Ling's words, the five Foundation Establishment experts from the Martial King Manor across from her immediately became exasperated. This woman was completely unreasonable!
"Senior Sister Dan Ling, I didn't expect you to have such a mischievous side!"
Below, Lin Yan couldn't help but give Dan Ling a thumbs-up, expressing his admiration.
He needed to learn more about this kind of unyielding attitude.
"What should we do? This woman is completely unreasonable!"
The five people from the Martial King Manor huddled together, feeling extremely anxious.
The next moment, they suddenly thought of the expert from Qingxia Sect and immediately wanted to ask him for help.
But when they saw the situation on the Qingxia Sect expert's side, they almost fumed with anger. Were you playing house with a Spirit Beast?
They saw the Peak Foundation Establishment expert from Qingxia Sect fiercely suppressing the Foundation Establishment Fifth Stage Three-Patterned Giant Python. The Three-Patterned Giant Python's boasted defense was like paper in front of him, its body bruised all over.
Even so, the Peak Foundation Establishment expert from Qingxia Sect still had no intention of killing it; instead, he kept cursing,
"You beast, you dared to disturb this old man's enjoyment, you dared to offend this old man! If I don't beat you into submission today, this old man swears he's not human!"
In contrast, the Three-Patterned Giant Python's huge python head showed an expression that looked like it was about to cry, and its eyes even revealed a human-like plea for mercy and submission. It was probably just short of kneeling and begging for forgiveness.
"Damn it, I knew we couldn't rely on them!"
Upon seeing this scene, the five people from the Martial King Manor couldn't help but curse out loud internally.
Even Qingxia Sect was extremely apprehensive of the Alchemist Association, so what could their Martial King Manor do? They immediately decided to leave indignantly.
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, an unexpected turn of events occurred!
An old man, with a ferocious expression, suddenly burst out from the shadows, holding a Sharp Weapon, and stabbed directly at Lin Yan's back.
This strike was aimed at a fatal blow.
"You little bastard! Die!"
"Xu Mao, you idiot! Stop it!"
The person who attacked was precisely the Foundation Establishment old man who had previously followed Wu Heng.
He had already been sentenced to death by the Martial King Manor, so he was not afraid of Dan Ling's threat at all. On the contrary, if he could kill Lin Yan, he would have completed his mission and would even have a glimmer of hope for survival.
"How dare you!"
Dan Ling reacted immediately and instantly summoned her Lifebound Weapon, the Pill Furnace, from above her head.
However, since Xu Mao's attack was a sudden ambush, even Dan Ling was a bit too late.
"Haha! Die! You little bastard!"
Pfft!
However, just as Xu Mao's attack was about to hit Lin Yan, the latter merely made a sword-wielding gesture with his hand, and Xu Mao, who was originally charging forward with a Sharp Weapon, had his ferocious head fly directly off.
"Just a mere Fourth Stage Foundation Establishment, aren't you underestimating me, Lin Yan, a bit too much?"
