There was no arrogance in the girl's eyes, but it was precisely this indifferent expression that made it even harder to accept.

Among the crowd, a few hot-blooded young cultivators gritted their teeth and were about to take a step forward when they were grabbed tightly by their pale-faced companions and dragged back.

Beneath this seemingly imposing exterior, Lin Qingyu's mind was partially absorbed in her thoughts, idly pondering the mission panel:

[Mission: To become famous throughout Tianxuan.]

[May we sweep aside all the prodigies of the various sects in the Heavenly Profound Realm ten years from now, and spread the glory of our Sword Sect.]

As she drew her sword, she wondered if this seemingly simple task might actually involve two conditions.

Sweep away the prodigies and raise the prestige of the Sword Sect?

"I am Lin Qingyu, a direct disciple of the Tianxuan Sword Sect."

Then, the girl slightly raised her chin, and her clear, cold voice resounded throughout the entire venue once again.

???

You've already killed everyone and provoked them, and now you're finally introducing yourself?

What does that mean? Is it like killing someone by destroying their spirit?

After a brief silence, a surge of anger, fueled by extreme humiliation, ignited the entire arena. Just as someone was about to retaliate by not steaming buns, a soft laugh echoed throughout the square.

"Haha, young friend, your skills are superb, and your decisiveness is truly astonishing. Could you do me the honor of stopping here?"

"certainly."

Upon seeing the newcomer, Lin Qingyu decisively dispersed the sword aura surrounding her, and with a flash, returned to her original position amidst the even more fervent gazes of the Tianxuan Sword Sect disciples.

To outsiders, this girl in white was decisive and skillful in her actions, truly a peerless prodigy.

In reality...

Although top sects have always had a rule that high-level cultivators cannot attack low-level disciples during the opening of the Heavenly Profound Secret Realm, the old man who intervened earlier never attacked her directly; otherwise, it would have been a declaration of war against the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect.

However, Lin Qingyu always held senior cultivators in high esteem.

She would never bare her teeth at a high-level cultivator without absolute certainty of being able to fight back; it would not only be uncool but also appear foolish.

The old woman, who was in the Nascent Soul stage, was slightly taken aback when she saw the young girl, who had been so sharp and murderous just moments before, agree so readily. Then, an undisguised look of admiration flashed in her eyes.

This is true composure and knowing when to advance and when to retreat.

In truth, even if this young girl had actually refused, she wouldn't have truly harmed her. But simply revealing a trace of her Nascent Soul Realm aura would have been enough to give him a hard time.

The old woman thought for a moment, then gently lifted her wrist.

A token, entirely emerald green, appeared and slowly floated in front of Lin Qingyu.

"Young friend, I am the manager of this secret realm, and I have no choice but to intervene. Please accept this jade pendant. If you need it in the future, you can use it to come to my Thousand Medicine Mountain and exchange it for a spiritual medicine that you need."

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingyu's eyes lit up; she was desperately in need of spiritual herbs!

Whether it's breaking through in body refinement or urgently needing to upgrade the Illusionary Phoenix Silk, both require many precious spiritual materials and medicines.

As expected of a Nascent Soul cultivator, he is truly meticulous in his actions.

Moreover, Thousand Medicine Mountain is no small name; it's a second-tier sect, so its foundation must be quite solid. I wonder if it possesses any ten-thousand-year-old spiritual herbs...

Thinking of this, Lin Qingyu's displeasure vanished instantly. After accepting the jade pendant, she bowed respectfully to the old woman.

"Thank you, senior."

As for the Golden Core elder above, who was about to explode with anger, even a running True Immortal couldn't get past him, so who cared?

Just as the cultivators were staring blankly at the inexplicable reversal before them, a huge shadow suddenly loomed over the sky above them.

With a muffled whooshing sound, three enormous flying ships, each as large as a mountain, slowly broke through the clouds and descended with a suffocating pressure.

Although Xuanhuang Prefecture's overall foundation is not bad among the Nine Provinces, it relies entirely on the existence of the two great immortal dynasties.

Because of the dynasty's power, the sect ecosystem here has been severely squeezed, and at most, there are only five forces that can truly be ranked as first-class sects.

As for super sects, there isn't a single one.

Looking up, everyone could tell from the markings hanging on the flying boat that it was the Dan Ding Pavilion, Tian Heng Sect, and Ji Dao Sect, the three major sects that had arrived.

There's no need to elaborate further on Dan Ding Ge.

The Tianheng Sect is located in the far east of Xuanhuang Prefecture, bordering Qihan Prefecture, one of the Nine Prefectures.

They are the only pure body cultivation sect in the entire Xuanhuang, and even the entire Nine Realms Continent.

As for the Extreme Dao Sect, Lin Qingyu had heard of it long ago.

He is now the leader of the demonic path in Xuanhuang Prefecture.

During one simulation, Chi Chuan mentioned something to her: Lin Bufan seemed to have some kind of antagonistic relationship with them during that simulation.

A villainous sect, no doubt.

"We've arrived at a first-level sect."

Many people whispered among themselves, but unconsciously kept their voices down.

These level two and three sect cultivators present might be able to act arrogantly in their own territories, but in front of such a behemoth, they had no weight whatsoever.

Even if high-level cultivators are forbidden from taking action in secret realms, who can guarantee that they won't be held accountable later?

In their fear, many people instinctively turned their gazes toward the direction of the girl in white, only to find that her expression remained calm and undisturbed.

Only at this moment did everyone suddenly recall her earlier words:

I am a direct disciple of the Tianxuan Sword Sect.

Although the Primordial Sword Court is not active in Xuanhuang Prefecture, it is still a super sect that transcends everything. This prestigious reputation is enough to deter most petty people and those who covet it.

"Giggle~"

A sweet, coquettish laugh wafted in on a fragrant breeze.

A stunning figure in a red dress landed gracefully like a butterfly into the Tianxuan Sword Sect's camp, directly touching Lin Qingyu's side.

"Sister Luyue, you were so impressive just now! It made me so envious!"

His flippant words and nonchalant attitude made it seem as if he didn't take the three first-level sects above him seriously at all.

Lin Qingyu frowned slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes. She subtly moved half a step to the side, quietly creating a safe distance.

She scoffed inwardly:

Evil Hehuan Sect demoness, stay away! Don't come near me and ruin my reputation!

"Waaaaah~"

The woman in red feigned weakness, clutching her chest, and took another half-step forward, her tone as aggrieved as if she had suffered a great injustice:

"Is the older sister avoiding her like the plague because she despises her younger sister?"

Lin Qingyu: "..."

She stared blankly at the charming and witty Hehuan Sect demoness before her, and for a moment, she was speechless.

What goes around comes around; no one escapes the wrath of Heaven.

Unexpectedly, one day, someone actually used this tactic on her...

...
