30: Chu Hao

At this moment, in a corner of the city wall.

Two young Cultivators stood together, accompanied by an elder.

"Young Miss, please leave with me quickly. I've already notified the nearby Sects, and they'll send people soon. The beast tide is too dangerous!"

The elder earnestly tried to persuade the young woman.

The woman, barely eighteen or nineteen, was tall and voluptuous, with elegant demeanor, raven hair like lacquer, and skin like jade. Her beautiful eyes sparkled, but what was most striking were her long legs. The form-fitting white trousers she wore made one's imagination run wild.

Hearing the elder's words, the young woman shook her head and looked at the young man beside her: "Xiao Hao, are you really staying?"

The young man called Xiao Hao had a refined face but a very strong Physique. A tight-fitting outfit accentuated his muscular build.

He looked at the tide-like Vicious Beasts with an incredibly resolute expression.

"Senior Sister, there are still many ordinary people in this city who haven't evacuated. Can we really rely on those who watch from the sidelines to save them?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of anxiety appeared on the young woman's pretty face: "But how can you possibly stop the beast tide by yourself?"

"I might not be able to stop it, but it's good to buy some more time. Senior Sister, please leave with Uncle Fu. I'll be fine."

"You!"

The young woman was momentarily exasperated, then pouted: "If you don't leave, I won't either. Otherwise, even if I go back, I won't be able to explain it to Revered Master!"

"This..."

The young man pondered for a moment, then said: "If Senior Sister doesn't leave, please do not participate in my battle. Stopping these Vicious Beasts is both for the people in this city and for my own self-refinement!"

Uncle Fu, standing nearby, said with a grim expression: "Young man, don't you understand your own situation! You're only at the Foundation Establishment Stage, and you want to stop a beast tide? Come with me quickly, otherwise, Young Miss won't leave!"

"What do the people in the city have to do with you?!"

"Hmph!"

The young man snorted coldly: "Uncle Fu, I never thought you'd say such a thing!"

"We are all of the Human Race, how could it be unrelated! Are we to just let these Vicious Beasts slaughter our Human Race! What a joke!"

"You might be afraid, but I'm not!"

Being lectured by a young man like this, Uncle Fu's face clearly lost its composure. He pointed a finger at the young man and angrily rebuked: "You..."

"Well said!"

Just as Uncle Fu was about to say something, a voice interrupted him.

The three turned to look. Unbeknownst to them, a red-clothed young man carrying a coffin had walked up beside them.

It was he who had just spoken.

"Young man, who are you?!"

Uncle Fu was already fuming, and seeing Lin Ye's appearance, he spoke without any politeness.

"Me?"

Lin Ye pointed to himself, chuckling: "I'm a passerby. I just heard this Fellow Daoist's righteous words, which moved me a little, so I spoke up to applaud."

As he spoke, the young man's status panel also appeared before Lin Ye's eyes... Name: Chu Hao

Bone Age: Seventeen

Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Peak

Physique: Overlord Body

Fate: Son of Destiny, Peach Blossom Luck, Late Bloomer, Full of Misfortunes, Parents Both Kings, Luck-Blessed...

Seeing Chu Hao's golden status panel, Lin Ye wasn't surprised. After all, his initial attributes were also like this.

However, this 'Parents Both Kings' was quite interesting.

"Brother Dao, are you also here to stop the beast tide?"

Seeing Lin Ye's appearance, Chu Hao felt a sense of closeness for some reason and instinctively asked.

"Mm."

Lin Ye nodded: "If this cultivation cannot protect the common people, it should at least benefit one region. Otherwise, why cultivate immortality? Might as well go home and grow vegetables."

The young woman beside him, seeing this suddenly appearing handsome young man speak such words, couldn't help but nod secretly.

She had thought that all of this younger generation, for the sake of immortal paths or such, had forgotten their original Heart-Nature as humans.

She didn't expect that there was still someone like her Junior Brother, possessing such an innocent Heart-Nature.

And judging by his appearance and demeanor, he should also be a Disciple of a major Sect.

"Brother Dao, I am Chu Hao, a Disciple of Profound Moon Holy Land. This is my Senior Sister, Ling Ruoqing. May I ask your name?"

"No need for such formality, just call me Lin Ye."

"So it's Brother Lin!"

Chu Hao, hearing Lin Ye's previous words, regarded him even more as someone with a similar character to himself, and his goodwill increased greatly.

"Hmph!"

No matter when, in a happy atmosphere, there is always someone to spoil it.

This person was Uncle Fu on the side.

He snorted coldly. Lin Ye's words just now were clearly directed at him, so the more he looked at Lin Ye, the more displeased he became, and he mocked: "Protect the common people? Benefit one region? Who do you think you are? An ancient Great Emperor?"

"The most important things in immortal cultivation are talent and Heart-Nature. As for the affairs of others, what do they have to do with you? Even if these people die in the beast tide, it is their fate."

"If..."

"Uncle Fu!"

Before Uncle Fu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ling Ruoqing's sharp cry: "Go back immediately!"

"Young Miss, this is not up to you. The Revered Master sent me to follow you, and you must leave with me!"

Being interrupted repeatedly by a junior, Uncle Fu clearly lost his patience and intended to forcefully take his Young Miss away.

Just as his withered hand was about to touch Ling Ruoqing's fair wrist, a slender hand grabbed his arm.

"Hmm?"

Uncle Fu turned to look. Unbeknownst to him, the red-clothed young man had already arrived beside him, and it was he who had grabbed his arm.

"Young man, what do you want to do? This is my..."

Slap!!!

Before Uncle Fu could finish speaking, a sudden pain flared on his face. The red-clothed young man had actually slapped him across the face?!

"Pfft!"

A mouthful of blood mixed with a few fallen teeth, Uncle Fu looked at Lin Ye with disbelief.

The latter chuckled: "I spoke to you nicely, yet you thought I was easy to talk to. What logic is that?"

"Old dog, you don't think you're very strong, do you?"

"Hmm?! Young man! You're courting death!"

Uncle Fu never expected that he, a dignified Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, would be so insulted.

He waved his hand, conjuring a bronze lamp from his Qi Sea, letting Spiritual Qi coil into the lamp like a snake. The two merged, illuminating the long sky.

The bronze lamp hung high in the sky, casting down streams of flames that burned towards Lin Ye. The scorching temperature twisted even the Void Realm.

"Brother Lin, be careful!"

"Uncle Fu, stop!"

Hearing Chu Hao and Ling Ruoqing's shouts, Uncle Fu became even more enraged.

Be careful of an outsider? What about me? Am I supposed to die!

With this thought, the Spiritual Qi in Uncle Fu's hands surged. Under the illumination of the firelight, the entire city wall brightened.

"Young man, die!"

Uncle Fu manipulated the sea of fire, intending to burn Lin Ye to ashes.

Lin Ye, witnessing this scene, wore a slight look of disdain.

This is a Nascent Soul???

I don't even need a sword to fight you!

Lin Ye was seen swinging his fist, striking towards the bronze lamp. His battle power was like a surging tide, stirring up lingering clouds. His fist, covered in white light, streaked across the sky like a star rumbling and crushing the firmament, causing the Void Realm to tremble continuously.
