Then, with a look of curiosity, she put the flying sword into her storage ring, and looked up to stare at the cultivator.
Noticing the gazes directed at him, the swordsman had a pretty good idea of what was going on. After several changes in expression, he looked at Huang Quan with a forced smile, then glanced at the Star-Refining Fruit in Liu Xiyao's hand: "This thing is ours."
Before Huang Quan could speak, Liu Xiyao shook her head vigorously, saying, "The spirit treasure chooses its master, and it willingly came into my hands!"
“It has come all this way to find its way here, so how can I abandon it?”
"Friend, don't you think your Daoist partner is being a bit unreasonable?" the flying sword cultivator said coldly.
Huang Quan then looked up at the group, his expression still calm: "When did you all get the idea that I need to argue? Since you chose to kill and plunder, does that mean it's all about strength? Then I think I am the true reason in your eyes."
But upon hearing these words, they all felt a strange chill.
"Are you threatening us?" The flying sword cultivator's eyes twitched, but he still spoke coldly: "No matter what, the Star Tempering Fruit is a treasure that we paid a heavy price for. Do you intend to take it all for yourself? Isn't that a bit too domineering? And are you sure you can handle us? Three against seven? I think you haven't figured out the situation. The advantage is on my side!"
Upon hearing this, the other flying sword cultivators also reacted, their eyes flashing with coldness as they greedily eyed the Star Tempering Fruit in Liu Xiyao's hand. Since their own interests were at stake, none of them were willing to back down easily because of a single sentence.
Huang Quan glanced at the flying sword cultivators and the few Transcendent Realm cultivators who were clearly interested, a thoughtful expression on his face: "Let's go somewhere else. I've never seen anyone hand over anything that's in this little brat's hands..."
Before she could finish speaking, Liu Xiyao hesitated for a moment, then reached out and stuffed the Star-Refining Fruit into Huang Quan's arms.
Huang Quan: ? ? ?
Are you here to sabotage us?
Didn't you see this is to support you?
"Here you go. Thank you for taking care of me along the way. I know I'm just a burden, bringing bad luck wherever I go... I feel this is extremely valuable, and even you will find it quite worthwhile!"
Those people's faces showed expressions of shock and anger.
Did something go wrong?
We were discussing the ownership of the treasure here, and suddenly you're all showing off your love?
Seeing Liu Xiyao's attitude, the group of cultivators were filled with anger.
After all, they were able to cultivate to the Transcendental Realm at such a young age, and they were usually considered geniuses. How could they tolerate being looked down upon like this?
"I know you are powerful, but if I'm not mistaken, you should also be protecting your two junior sisters, right? Are you sure you can protect them if you fight us?"
The flying sword cultivator's eyes flashed, and he sneered, his tone gradually becoming unfriendly. Hearing this, the people behind him were slightly moved, their gazes sweeping towards Liu Xiyao and the Star Tempering Fruit in Huang Quan's arms, their eyes becoming even more ardent.
Liu Xiyao felt a chill run down her spine. The young girl herself had a somewhat vague understanding of the strength of cultivation, and she was not sure if Huang Quan could fight against so many people at the same time.
However, upon hearing the words of the flying sword cultivator, he knew that the thing he least wanted to see had happened.
As expected, I'll still become someone else's burden...
The girl was about to say something when she saw the boy gazing ahead with a melancholy look: "I gave you a chance, but you were useless. What do you think you are?"
His tone wasn't contemptuous; rather, it sounded like he was stating a question out of bewilderment. But this tone only fueled the anger of the cultivators.
"You said..." However, before the flying sword cultivator could finish speaking, to his horror, the boy had already disappeared from his sight.
"Since you don't want to leave, then you can all stay."
When Huang Quan reappeared, those cultivators felt an immense crisis, and their scalps tingled with fear.
With a roar, his internal energy surged, and his spiritual power instantly flowed through his spiritual apertures, connecting with his inner sanctum and unleashing a powerful aura!
But at the moment Huang Quan actually made his move, he suddenly felt a little regretful.
But given the current situation, he has no way back.
This guy was so arrogant, actually showing himself right into their encirclement, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
But at that moment, a faint sound echoed through the passage, reaching almost everyone's ears.
It was at this moment that the group suddenly lost sight of Huang Quan again.
I don't know when I stood behind them.
He gently raised his hand and lowered it.
Like a myriad of phenomena descending, a tremendous roar followed, and the cultivators had no time to dodge, being blasted directly into the ground. The incredibly hard floor of the secret palace could not withstand the terrifying force; cracks and fissures appeared on the ground, creating a huge crater. Only after flashes of forbidden light did the attack finally come to a halt.
With a single strike, even though several Transcendent cultivators used their best techniques to resist, they still coughed up blood and suffered considerable injuries, with some even nearly fainting.
"Why did such a monster appear this time... I didn't receive any information at all!"
The flying sword cultivator's expression was distorted, and fear flashed in his eyes. He was somewhat unable to accept this result. He considered himself to be exceptionally talented. Although there was a gap between him and the top geniuses, the gap should be limited.
"I've already reached the peak of the Transcendent Realm, yet I can't even put up a fight?"
If it weren't for the others sharing the burden, he suddenly felt that he might have been killed in a single encounter.
Their greed for the Star-Refining Fruit was completely overwhelmed by fear. They were bewitched, but none of them expected that Huang Quan's strength would be so great.
The difference in combat power is so great that they don't seem to be on the same level at all!
"Grab those two girls, or we'll all die here."
He summoned his natal flying sword, his eyes bloodshot, as if he wanted to fight to the death.
A chill ran through him, but he knew there was no way out and he could only continue to fight to the death.
"go with!"
The pressure of life and death brought forth boundless potential; this sword strike, shimmering with starlight, was his most brilliant attack.
Upon hearing the sound, Liu Xiyao's ears perked up, and she stared intently at it. Curious, she stretched out her finger and, mimicking Huang Quan's earlier action of intercepting the flying sword, flicked it forward.
"Ding!"
A white mark was scratched on her fingernail, and a small piece was knocked off the top.
In contrast, the flying sword was knocked off course and ended up sprawled on a nearby stone pillar.
"Ouch! It hurts! It hurts!"
With a pitiful look in her eyes, Liu Xiyao kept blowing air onto her fingers.
Last hope was dashed.
The flying sword cultivator looked at Liu Xiyao as if she were a monster.
It should be noted that in the previous attack, the black-clad youth merely used spiritual energy attached to his fingers to withstand the flying sword by its sheer mass; it's just that the mass of his spiritual energy was terrifying.
When he turned around, he found that the girl in front of him had taken the sword strike head-on without any protection.
Is that his natal flying sword or a nail clipper?
The man didn't care about any of that and struggled to continue his escape, but as soon as he got up, he saw the black-robed youth appear in front of him. Huang Quan stood quietly in front of him, looking at him without any fluctuation in his eyes.
He understood that his life or death was entirely in the hands of the person in front of him.
"You...you can't kill me."
He had intended to boast about his noble status, but upon considering the terrifying strength of the man and woman, he swallowed his words and instead said, "I...I am very valuable!"
"Really? But why... can't I see it at all?"
Upon hearing Huang Quan's disdainful words, the flying sword cultivator dared not show any anger. Instead, he became even more fearful, afraid that the other party would kill him directly, giving him no chance to prove himself.
"I am a disciple of the Tianyan Sect! After we entered the secret realm, we received orders from our senior sister that, except for some disciples who were not good at fighting, no one else was allowed to leave the sect's group without permission. Our senior sister did not allow our people to participate in the competition for other resources, and directly led us to the location of this inheritance secret hall. It seems that she knew from the beginning that there was an inheritance here."
"After that, he went into seclusion and told us to guard this place. Once it opens, we are to take the sword puppet core to the very center."
"She said she wanted to decipher the Yin-Yang duality formation of this secret palace's restrictions and find a way to break it. After that, no one saw her again. However, she also made a promise that she would compensate us double for the resources we lost in the future. She said she had a way to obtain this inheritance. The only thing we need to do is not let a little girl with brute strength but low spiritual cultivation rely on..."
At this point, he glanced at Liu Xiyao with a trembling expression, as if he had realized something.
Huang Quan raised his question: "Do you think I would believe that? Why would she tell you so much? Doesn't she know that too many people talking at once? Why create so much trouble for herself in the struggle for the inheritance?"
The flying sword cultivator's eyes flickered slightly, and he hesitated for a moment before continuing to speak.
While it's good to pass on traditions, you also need to be alive to learn them.
"She said there's someone trapped under this great formation, and she's only interested in the person trapped. As for the inheritance, she doesn't care if it all goes to us disciples... so naturally she's not afraid of us gossiping..."
"If you spare my life, I can become your inside man!"
The flying sword cultivator expressed his loyalty, but his eyes still held hatred for his senior sister. If it weren't for that guy, he would still be wandering outside, and might even have obtained other opportunities.
"Let's forget about it."
Huang Quan stared at the distorted expression on the flying sword cultivator's face.
He spoke calmly.
This guy can betray his sect so decisively; he might betray anyone in the future if given the chance. He doesn't need to keep such an uncontrollable person as a pawn. Besides, this guy is too stupid. Who knows if the information he brings will be true or false? He's too lazy to bother to judge.
"Now, you are of no value."
Chapter 86 Author: Gu Qici
Near the core area of the Hall of Inheritance, outside a treasure hall, some hurried sounds rang out.
"Senior Sister Li! Something terrible has happened!"
His tone carried a hint of panic.
Li Fei looked in the direction of the sound and saw one of her disciples staring at her with a pale face and cold sweat on his forehead.
"Speak your mind directly; panicking won't make things better."
Li Fei was not annoyed by the man's loss of composure, and spoke softly.
The disciple stared at the girl before him, seemingly calmed by the gentle emotion in her eyes.
After regaining his senses, he lowered his head and swallowed hard, saying, "Senior Brother Wang's... life tablet suddenly shattered just now. He's most likely already..."
He dared not meet Li Fei's gaze any longer.
Because I'm worried about getting involved.
The girl in front of him was someone he could never even dream of.
Because Li Fei not only possesses exceptional talent, but also has a reclusive master behind her whom she has never met.
Since she was taken in as a disciple by that 'reclusive master' a year and a half ago,
Her rapid progress in spiritual practice was unstoppable.
His strength increased at an extremely terrifying rate, and his former fellow disciples were left behind in the blink of an eye, until they disappeared from sight.
