A wasted cultivation cultivator, whose senior sister comes to his door asking for pills at the start

The short blade in the black-clad woman's hand pierced through Ye Yun's clothes in an instant, but when it struck his chest, it made a sharp "ding" sound.

Seeing that the blade hadn't penetrated even an inch, the woman in black's expression changed slightly, and she instinctively cried out in alarm.

"This is... a protective magic item?!"

The weapon that could withstand her attack was clearly a high-grade magic weapon, at least a high-grade or even top-grade mortal item!

This was beyond her expectations. Seeing that her attack had failed, the woman in black quickly tried to distance herself.

Unfortunately, Ye Yun already gave a cold laugh.

"Trying to run? Take this first!"

He immediately raised his hand and threw a punch, which hit the woman in black without any doubt, sending her flying.

The profound energy that erupted from his body during that punch startled the black-clad woman who was sent flying backward.

"How can this guy be at the tenth level of Qi Condensation?"

According to the information given by the master, Ye Yun in front of him should only be at the fifth level of Qi Condensation.

The result was quite unexpected; the numbers doubled, but the gap in strength between the two was still far more than double.

"The intelligence is wrong, we need to retreat immediately!"

The woman in black immediately realized that tonight's assassination attempt had failed and she had to escape as soon as possible.

While in the air, she retracted the golden flag she had unleashed.

Soon, her flying body crashed into the tree with a dull thud.

Although her bones felt like they were about to fall apart, she didn't care and immediately tried to slip away and disappear into the darkness behind her.

Before she could make a move, a streak of azure sword light flew towards her at incredible speed, reaching her neck.

"Friend, please don't move around."

Ye Yun walked over from the front, smiling as he looked at the woman in black.

Clearly, from this moment on, the outcome was already decided.

Seeing that she had no way to escape, the woman in black unexpectedly faced the long sword with her neck, intending to commit suicide on the spot.

Fortunately, Ye Yun, who was watching her, immediately withdrew his longsword slightly and rushed forward, grabbing her by the neck.

"Wanting to commit suicide isn't that easy."

Ye Yun snorted coldly, and seeing that the woman in black was still struggling, he simply raised his hand and knocked her unconscious.

Not long after, the woman in black woke up again and found that her Xuan Qi had been sealed and her hands and feet were bound with ropes.

Her weapons had been removed, leaving her completely defenseless.

Even with the ropes binding her, she couldn't stand up and could only lie on the ground.

Ye Yun sat on a rock to the side, playing with the storage bag he had taken from her and the jade token that symbolized her status as an outer disciple.

"You're Chen Yue, an outer disciple, right? Tell me, who sent you?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yue turned her face away, completely ignoring his question.

"Not going to say anything?"

Seeing that she was not cooperating, Ye Yun sneered.

"Alright, then I'll send you to the Hall of Enforcement. I'm sure the senior brothers and sisters there have plenty of ways to get you to speak."

Upon hearing the words "Hall of Enforcement," Chen Yue's expression changed, and she said coldly.

"No one sent me, I just don't like you."

"Hilarious, do we even know each other?"

Ye Yun rolled her eyes at her. She didn't know many people, let alone offend anyone.

If they approached him because of the elixir, they wouldn't necessarily want to kill him outright; at the very least, they would try to capture him alive and interrogate him about how he obtained it.

Seeing that she remained silent, Ye Yun did not press her further.

After thinking for a while, he got up and sat down cross-legged next to Chen Yue.

Then, Ye Yun gently stroked her chin with his fingers and said with a smile.

"Actually, it's obvious without even thinking that you were sent by Senior Brother Chen Tian'ao, a true disciple. Only he would have the motive to kill me."

The true disciple he mentioned, Chen Tian'ao, was the fiancé of Senior Sister Mo Ruyan.

The reason for mentioning him is mainly because both of them share the surname Chen, and Ye Yun simply guessed it offhand.

After all, many people had seen him spending time with Mo Ruyan, so it wasn't impossible for her to cause him trouble because of it.

And judging from the changes in Chen Yue's facial expression, the answer was already clear.

"It seems it really was him."

Ye Yun shook his head. Just because he was jealous, he wanted to kill him. It seems that Chen Tian'ao is not a good person either.

Seeing that she had been exposed, Chen Yue simply stopped pretending and glared at him.

"Since you know that, you'd better let me go, or my master won't let you off the hook!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Ye Yun shrugged. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but with his cultivation level, he couldn't kill the other party, dispose of the body silently, and erase all traces at the same time.

The Ancient Holy Land strictly forbids disciples from harming each other; once discovered, it is a capital offense, regardless of status.

At present, Chen Yue is just a pawn, not the mastermind, and it is not worth taking this risk for her.

Seeing that he seemed to have chickened out, Chen Yue couldn't help but let out a soft snort.

"If that's the case, why aren't you letting me go?"

But just then, Ye Yun stared at her with a smile.

"I'll definitely release it, but I still need to ask you for something."

Chen Yue didn't understand what she meant and frowned.

"You've taken everything from me, what more do you want?"

"How could that be? You're still here."

Ye Yun smiled slightly and grabbed Chen Yue's leg with one hand.

After all, there are still some opportunities to gain from the other party.

Chen Yue's delicate body trembled instantly, and she immediately understood what the other party wanted to do.

She panicked a little and quickly called out.

"I am Senior Brother Chen's sword attendant, how dare you do such a thing to me?!"

"He already sent you to kill me, why would I care about this?"

Ye Yun rolled her eyes at her and gently stroked her body.

At this moment, Ye Yun, like a villain in some movies, revealed a wicked smile.

"Besides, you wouldn't want your master to be targeted by the Enforcement Hall because of your failure, would you?"

"you……"

After hearing this, Chen Yue was speechless for a moment, seemingly resigned to her fate.

She bit her lip lightly and said with her head down.

"I see……"

Seeing that she agreed, Ye Yun didn't stand on ceremony and first untied the ropes from her feet.

Chen Yue cooperated without struggling, but she soon realized that Ye Yun had not untied the ropes binding her hands.

However, they grabbed her, tied her to a tree, and forced her to kneel on the ground facing the tree, maintaining an extremely shameful posture.

Chen Yue looked at him pleadingly, her voice almost begging.

"Please, please, not in a place like this..."

Not only in the wild, but also in this state, it was simply unacceptable to her.

Unfortunately, Ye Yun completely ignored her.

After preparing everything, he gave her a cold laugh.

"Don't worry, this is a lousy place. You can scream your lungs out and no one will hear you."

After saying that, he ignored Chen Yue's pleas and started eating immediately.
