423: Domineering and strong
Several instructors dared to be angry but dared not speak; they had just seen how terrifying that youth was.
With a casual strike, he rendered that instructor and the Great Demon unable to resist.
The two were thrown to Lin Ye like toys. One must know, to become an instructor, one's cultivation must be at least at the Saint Peak, or even Supreme. Yang Tiansheng had roughly the same level of cultivation.
Yet in front of that youth, the two had no power to fight back.
If they guessed correctly, this youth was at least a Supreme, perhaps even a Quasi-Emperor!
Was this a Guardian of the Flying Feather Holy Sect?
And that Lin Ye was even more bizarre. After wrapping the instructor and the Great Demon in Devilish Qi, their heads had actually vanished.
To take revenge on his enemies, Lin Ye had actually chosen to eat their heads?!
The bloodstains at the corners of his mouth were the best proof.
Wasn't the Flying Feather Holy Sect part of the Righteous Path? Yet their own Saint was a man-eating Devil Cultivator?!
It was simply absurd!
The youth looked at the silent scene and nodded with satisfaction, then lazily said: "Speak, why did you attack my Saint?"
Hearing the youth's inquiry, one of the instructors breathed a sigh of relief. He stepped forward and said solemnly: "Senior, our Xuanyang Academy and your Flying Feather Holy Sect have always been on good terms for generations. After learning that Lin Ye had become the Saint of the Flying Feather Holy Sect..."
"We even went to the extent of having our Sequence Disciple personally deliver an invitation, requesting him to visit our Xuanyang Academy."
"And the result? The Disciple who delivered the invitation was killed by him directly. That person was the son of Yang Tiansheng. Because of the Tianjiao Grand Meeting, our Academy did not activate the defensive grand formation, and that Great Demon took advantage of the loophole to come out and deal with Lin Ye."
"Originally, we wanted to help him, but he had previously killed our Sequence Disciple, severed the hand of another Sequence Disciple, and even chopped off the limbs of our Saint!"
"Is this not..."
"Shut up!"
Before the instructor could finish, the youth interrupted sternly again: "I am asking why you attacked my Saint. As for him attacking your Disciples, what does that have to do with you?"
"???"
The people of Xuanyang Academy were all filled with question marks.
They even carefully replayed the youth's words in their minds.
The result was that they realized they hadn't misheard; the other party was simply being unreasonable!
What do you mean by 'what does it have to do with you' when he attacked our Disciples!
He attacked our Disciples, so isn't it right for us to fight back?!
The instructor was furious, but when he saw the corpses of his fellow Sect members, he immediately suppressed the impulsive thoughts in his mind.
Just kidding, at this moment the Ancestors had not yet awakened. Facing someone who might be a Quasi-Emperor, being presumptuous was simply courting death!
From the youth's actions just now, it was clear that he really dared to kill!
The instructor took a deep breath and spoke again: "Senior, regarding the matter of attacking your Sect's Saint, let... let's say we were wrong! But haven't you noticed the problem!"
"Your Sect's Saint is clearly a Devil Cultivator!"
"Even if we don't hold him accountable for injuring and killing our Disciples, your Flying Feather Holy Sect is part of the Righteous Path! Our Xuanyang Academy is the same. A Devil Cultivator has appeared within the Righteous Path! If this gets out, isn't it a disgrace to our entire Righteous Path!"
"Even if it is for the reputation of the Flying Feather Holy Sect, as fellow members of the Righteous Path, we naturally have the responsibility to protect your Sect's reputation. Is this also wrong?!"
"Oh?"
The youth displayed a puzzled expression, then turned his head to look at Lin Ye: "Kid, they say you are a Devil Cultivator. What do you say?"
"I am not."
Lin Ye shook his head, his eyes filled with a trace of determination: "My heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror; everything I do is for justice!"
"Oh!"
The youth understood, then turned around to look at the people of the Academy: "You all heard it; he said he is not."
"???"
Three question marks appeared on the heads of the Academy crowd again.
Just because he says he isn't, he isn't?!
When you were dealing with us just now, that wasn't your attitude at all!!!
The people of Xuanyang Academy, from the instructors down to the Disciples below, all looked at the youth with stifled and resentful eyes.
"Alright, alright!"
The youth waved his hand impatiently: "Lin Ye said he isn't, what else do you want? Furthermore, regarding those points you mentioned earlier, our Saint injured your Saint and other Disciples."
"As a member of the younger generation and holding the title of Saint, what is the problem with him offering guidance to Fellow Daoists of the Righteous Path?"
"After he finished guiding you, did you say thank you? If you didn't, say it now!"
Usually, it was the people of Xuanyang Academy who used that kind of speech—calling it reasoning but actually being unreasonable—to deal with others. Suddenly, one day, this feeling fell upon themselves.
For a moment, everyone simply didn't know what to say.
Some Academy Disciples were even wondering if they had been too excessive in the past.
As for the Prodigies of other forces, seeing such an overbearing and domineering side of the youth, they all developed a sense of yearning for the Flying Feather Holy Sect.
However...
As the Saint of the Righteous Path Sect, the Flying Feather Holy Sect, why was Lin Ye a Devil Cultivator?
"Hahahaha, an old friend has arrived, and I, this old man, have been negligent!"
Just at this moment, following a loud laugh, an old man with crane-white hair and a youthful face stepped on the Void Realm and landed in front of the crowd.
"Old Ancestor!!!"
Seeing the person arrive, several instructors almost cried out. They had finally waited for him; thank goodness they hadn't given up!
With the Old Ancestor here, let's see how that youth can still be arrogant!!! This is Xuanyang Academy, not their Flying Feather Holy Sect!
"Old fogey, who is your old friend? We may be familiar, but if you spout nonsense, I will still beat you up!"
The youth raised his fist, his face full of disdain.
The old man smiled dumbly, then said helplessly: "It has been many years, Brother Yue Ming, you still have the same personality."
"Enough, don't try to get chummy with me. I came here to hold you accountable. You attacked the Saint of my Flying Feather Holy Sect; how do you intend to resolve this matter? If you can't resolve it, then just wait for war!"
"Hehe..."
The old man smiled: "Since Brother Yue Ming has come personally, how could there be no way to resolve it? Who can tell me what happened?"
Hearing this, an instructor began to transmit his voice to the old man.
The old man's smile gradually stiffened and vanished. His gaze turned toward Lin Ye, and in that look, there was a trace of exploration and a trace of greed.
A moment later, the old man spoke to Yue Ming: "Brother Yue Ming, I have heard about the matter from the juniors. How about this, let's make a deal."
"A deal?"
Yue Ming became interested: "Speak, how do you intend to trade? But I warn you, if you don't say it well, I guarantee I will break your legs!"
Hearing the threat, the old man was neither angry nor annoyed. He spoke in a gentle tone: "Saint Lin has the Haoran Sword on him; that is our Sect's Supreme treasure. Leaving that sword behind should be no problem, right?"
