Chapter 9: How Dare You Provoke Me
There is no need at all; I have no interest in you.
Upon hearing this, Cangyuan's expression immediately became serious. He walked up to Ling Tian, grasped Ling Tian's wrist, and in an instant, a subtle stream of true energy flowed from his palm into Ling Tian's body
Qian Feng waved his hand dismissively and said, "My name is Qian Feng. Welcome, junior brother, to the Sword Sect. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me. I will certainly help you as much as I can."
Ling Tian looked at the arrogant Zhou Jie, his gaze gradually turning cold. Even though he was injured, he had to fight this battle, and it had to be decisive, winning cleanly without any hesitation. He wanted to use this opportunity to make a name for himself, instilling fear in others with ulterior motives, so they would not dare to provoke him again. And Zhou Jie was the target for him to set an example!
Ling Tian was overjoyed; with this storage ring, he no longer had to worry about his few unparalleled martial arts being discovered by others
Cang Yuan stroked his beard, pondering slightly, and then continued, "I can allow you to join the Sword Sect, but you are currently seriously injured. If I were to have you test your strength in front of the monument, it is likely that you would not be able to demonstrate your full capabilities. For Feiyang's sake, I will temporarily accept you as an inner disciple of my Sword Sect."
Thank you, Senior Brother Xie Qian, for your concern
You deserve it, you've run into a tough situation
Qian Feng relentlessly pursued and caught up, taking out a pill from his storage ring and saying: "This is the Revitalizing Pill, it has remarkable effects for healing injuries, you can take it."
Everything will be discussed after Ling Tian's injury has healed
Zhou Jie is calling out from a distance
Yun Feiyang nodded and said to Master Cangyuan, "Master Cang, Brother Ling is my friend. He possesses exceptional talent and outstanding strength. He wishes to join our Sword Sect. What do you think?"
Ajie, come here
Oh? Who is this person? I haven't seen them before
The newly arrived disciple? Does he not know to pay respects upon seeing Senior Brother Qian?
As time passed, Cangyuan's brows gradually furrowed
This person is named Qian Feng, and he is one of the core disciples of the Sword Sect, with strength second only to Yun Feiyang. Due to his special identity, he has a large number of disciples following him within the Sword Sect, and he is also a devoted pursuer of Jiang Xinyue
A burst of laughter came from behind, and Zhou Jie spoke up: "Junior brother, are you perhaps afraid? If you lack even this little bit of courage, I advise you to leave the Sword Sect as soon as possible, for our Sword Sect does not need cowards. That ancient tomb of the wilderness is not a place you can go to!"
Yun Feiyang did not mind much, and nodded lightly.
After clearly seeing the person approaching, the old man couldn't help but feel speechless, a black line appearing on his forehead, and he said: "Oh my little ancestor, you are about to scare the life out of me"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinyue, standing to the side, felt a chill on her delicate face and spoke, "Zhou Jie, did you not hear what I just said? Ling Tian is currently injured and it is not appropriate to engage in combat."
Ling Tian did not look back and continued to walk forward
Yun Feiyang spoke up
No need, it can be done now
Master Brother, Sister Jiang, you have returned
A great battle is about to break out
Along the way, many disciples greeted Yun Feiyang and Jiang Xinyue after seeing them, their faces filled with reverence. At the same time, they were also discussing Ling Tian with great curiosity.
He waved his hand, and immediately, a person walked over from behind.
Is the junior disciple injured
It is said that after this person confirmed that Yun Feiyang and Jiang Xinyue shared a purely sibling relationship without any romantic undertones, he immediately began to pursue Jiang Xinyue fervently. Jiang Xinyue found this exceedingly bothersome, repeatedly rejecting him, and even explicitly stated in front of all the disciples of the Sword Sect that she did not like him. However, Qian Feng's thick skin exceeded her imagination; not only did he not get angry, but he also became even more fervent in his pursuit thereafter. His glorious deeds became known throughout the entire Sword Sect, with no one unaware of them.
Miss, please take me back to the residence
Saying this, Cangyuan threw a blue ring to Ling Tian and said: "This is a storage ring, which contains the necessary items for joining the Sword Sect. I give you three days; within three days, you must go to the testing monument to complete the strength assessment"
This person is named Zhou Jie, a loyal henchman of Qian Feng, who has previously assisted Qian Feng in numerous heinous and immoral acts, earning Qian Feng's deep trust. At this moment, upon hearing Qian Feng's words, he immediately understood in his heart.
At the mountain gate, two patrolling disciple guards saw Ling Tian and his group, and greeted them warmly
Cannot
Ling Tian was instantly speechless; this person was truly detestable
Speak softly, so as not to startle this junior apprentice
Oh my, what the heck
Upon seeing this situation, Qian Feng's expression immediately darkened, and he spoke up: "Junior brother, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to undermine your senior brother's dignity?"
Ling Tian cupped his hands in salute, saying little more
Ling Tian, upon seeing this, immediately stepped forward and respectfully said: "I am Ling Tian, it is an honor to meet the Law Enforcement Elder"
Jiang Xin Yue stealthily approached the old man, wearing a malicious smile on her face. She tiptoed quietly and suddenly slammed her hand on the table, shouting loudly in the old man's ear.
Ling Tian turned around, and the aura around him began to surge. From the moment he decided to join the Sword Sect, Ling Tian had already prepared himself for battle. Although he was currently injured, with the ancestral dragon energy in his dantian, Ling Tian was confident that he could handle the vast majority of the disciples of the Sword Sect
Hahaha, good, Brother Yun, did you hear that? This is something that Junior Brother promised on his own, I did not force him
At this moment, the old man is lying on the armchair, snoring. Occasionally, he emits bursts of snoring sounds from his mouth
Seeing the old man's comical appearance, Jiang Xinyue laughed so hard that she doubled over, unable to straighten her back
Elder Xie
Senior brother, I really do not need it
At this moment, Yun Feiyang and Ling Tian also walked in from outside the door
Having been made a fool of by Jiang Xinyue, Qian Feng was not angry; he had grown accustomed to it. Seeing Ling Tian beside him, he inquired, "Who is this?"
Hahahahaha
However, Jiang Xinyue beside her wore a look of disdain; she even cast a glance of slight disgust at this person before turning her head away
This individual, named Cang Yuan, is the Chief Elder of Law Enforcement in our Sword Sect
Jiang Xin Yue let out a cold snort, turned her head away, and no longer paid any attention to Qian Feng
After bidding farewell to Elder Cangyuan, Yun Feiyang and Jiang Xinyue took Ling Tian to wander around the Sword Sect. This was not only to help Ling Tian become familiar with the surroundings but also to allow him to quickly acclimate to the Sword Sect.
Ling Tian spoke
Ling Tian did not wish to have any dealings with such a person, nor could he be threatened by them. Since the other party was unaware of their limits, he saw no reason to show any mercy.
Qian Feng feigned ignorance, merely fixating intently on Ling Tian
Having said that, Ling Tian turned and left
Amidst the crowd, several imposing disciples of the Sword Sect approached. The leader, dressed in a long dark green robe, wore an arrogant expression, with his hands clasped behind his back, exuding an air of superiority. This individual was handsome, with a long sword at his waist, yet his face bore a shadowy demeanor
Do you still have any face left
So, once he has recovered from his injury, he will be able to face the challenge?
Yun Feiyang smiled gently, nodded slightly, and then walked into the Sword Sect of Ling Tian.
Ling Tian cupped his hands in gratitude, but did not accept the elixir
Upon seeing Jiang Xinyue beside Yun Feiyang, Qian Feng's eyes immediately brightened, and a look of ecstatic joy appeared on his face as he quickly walked over.
At that moment, a sound of footsteps came from a distance, and everyone made way.
Yun Feiyang introduced Ling Tian
The old man was sleeping soundly when he was suddenly awakened by noise, startled to the point of stumbling, nearly losing his wits, and ended up rolling off the armchair.
Alright, everyone can disperse now. After a while, the ancient tomb of the Northern Wilderness will be opened. Everyone should focus on their cultivation.
Behind him, Qian Feng's expression was terrifyingly dark as he stared at Ling Tian's receding figure, a glimmer of cold light flashing in his eyes
Qian Feng's expression turned slightly cold as he said in a chilling voice: "Junior brother, my hand is right here, will you take it or not?"
Sister Xinyue, you are here too
I do not know, perhaps it is a guest who has come from afar
Two disciples walked towards the distance while quietly discussing among themselves
"Senior Brother Yun, you have returned!"
Thank you for your concern, senior brother. My injuries are not serious.
Jiang Xin Yue made a face at Qian Feng and then quickly followed him.
This junior disciple has actually been able to join the Sword Sect, which must mean he is a remarkable talent among men. I am Zhou Jie, and I would like to seek some guidance. I wonder if the junior disciple would be willing to grant me this favor
Pop? Grandfather Cang!
Qian Feng revealed a playful expression on his face, gazing deeply at Ling Tian, without uttering a word
How dare you provoke me
Jiang Xin Yue held Ling Tian's hand and said: "Ling Tian, I will take you to your residence. There are healing elixirs in the storage ring; you should quickly heal your injuries and then join us as we head to the Ancient Tomb of the Primordial Era"
Oh? Let me take a look
The cloud beside soared and spoke, not striking down with a single blow, but directly prohibiting the competition
Good, very good
Zhou Jie laughed wildly, and as he spoke softly, the air around him surged with energy, a violent wave of force erupted from his body
Although he felt that Ling Tian's strength might be considerable, he could not precisely determine how strong it was. Since Zhou Jie had taken the initiative to provoke, he would take the opportunity to observe Ling Tian's abilities.
Here, Yun Feiyang brought Ling Tian to the registration area for disciples of the Sword Sect. Sitting in front of them was an elderly man dressed in a blue sword robe, with kind brows and a benevolent expression.
Oh? Just entered the Sword Sect?
A sly smile of triumph flashed across Zhou Jie’s face
A disciple of the Sword Sect behind pointed at Ling Tian and said
Upon hearing this, the crowd dispersed one after another
Looking at the righteous Qian Feng, Jiang Xinyue said somewhat sarcastically, "How come I didn't know you had such a kind heart?"
Qian Feng responded hastily, "That is because Junior Sister does not yet understand me. If possible, I would be willing to have an open and heartfelt conversation with Junior Sister."
You are truly a strange person!" Jiang Xinyue, standing by, came to Ling Tian's rescue, saying: "They have already politely declined, yet you are still shamelessly lingering here. Do you really want them to say no outright so that you can feel pleased in your heart?
Well
Ling Tian felt a surge of disdain in his heart, but still smiled and said: "I wouldn't dare, it's just that my injuries have mostly healed, so using this heavenly elixir would be a waste."
I am Ling Tian, a newly admitted disciple of the Sword Sect
How strange, your dantian has been destroyed, yet you can still cultivate the Three Flowers atop the head. It seems you possess opportunities that ordinary people do not.
