Yun Lintian stared at Wu Qingcheng with a thoughtful expression. Although he was interested in the Heavenly Sword, it wasn't to the point he needed to cause trouble for himself. He believed he would have a chance to see it as long as he was strong enough.
Therefore, Yun Lintian shook his head firmly. "No, fourth sister. I won't participate in this. It's too troublesome, and I don't want to reveal much of my strength to the outsider. It's best to retract that challenge letter."
Before Wu Qingcheng could say anything, Jiang Yingyue spoke first. "You shouldn't force him, Qingcheng. He's not stupid enough to believe in your nonsense. The resources he gave Master are more than enough to help her regain her former strength. As for the Heavenly Sword Summit. A sole Mystic Pavilion's successor like you should be clearer about the situation than anybody here. Even if he got the quota, those old monsters would never allow him to participate."
Wu Qingcheng's mouth opened and closed a few times, but no word came out in the end. She could not come up with any refutes and decided to give up.
Mystic Pavilion's successor? Yun Lintian was surprised upon hearing this. He didn't expect Wu Qingcheng's identity to be this powerful.
During these months, the Cloud Shadow team had gathered a lot of information related to the Mystic Pavilion. Through the report, Yun Lintian had a general idea about the power behind the pavilion.
The Mystic Pavilion's mysterious leader had the surname Wu and was a powerhouse that could rival the palace masters of the nine palaces. However, his origin was relatively unknown. He rose to power a thousand years ago at lightning speed, and his Mystic Pavilion was quickly recognized as another pavilion beside the Star Pavilion by masses.
Yun Lintian was curious why his successor appeared here in the Sky Throne Profound Academy. It was not only her but his other senior sisters, too. Each one of them possessed an extremely powerful background, yet they happened to choose Lin Zixuan as their master. This was too coincident, right?
Yun Lintian put these thoughts aside and went to check on Long Feiyan. Later, he discovered her condition wasn't severe as he had expected. Her physique seemed special, as though she was a body practitioner. Looked like her Golden Dragon bloodline was the reason behind this.
Yun Lintian let Jiang Yingyue feed Long Feiyan a high-grade healing pill and brought her to her residence for recovery before preparing to set off toward the Starry Mountain.
Before he left the Moonlight Peak, Wu Qingcheng approached him and asked. "Junior brother, Wang Jue had issued a challenge to you. Do you want to reject it?"
Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly. "Can I reject it? If possible, I'll have to trouble third sister to reject it on my behalf. I have no time to play with him."
Wu Qingcheng had a disappointed expression, as though she had just lost an enormous profit, but she still nodded her head in the end. "Fine. I'll reject him for you."
Yun Lintian said nothing further and walked down the mountain with Linlin.
"Brother Yun!" As Yun Lintian passed through the pathway toward the Starry Mountain, he suddenly heard Fei Mao's voice from afar.
When Yun Lintian turned around, he saw Fei Mao's fat body trotting toward him while panting heavily.
"What's wrong? Don't you attend Teacher Tie's class?" Yun Lintian asked.
Fei Mao arrived in front of Yun Lintian and gasped for a few breaths before replying. "Brother Yun, I heard you are going to fight that Wang Jue. Is it true?"
Yun Lintian was taken aback for a second and shook his head. "No. I won't play with him." At the same time, he sighed inwardly. His third sister had harmed him severely this time.
Fei Mao frowned. "Really? Right now, everyone is talking about this. I heard Wang Jue say he will let everyone see that you are nothing but trash… Erm, don't get me wrong, Brother Yun. It's not my words."
Hearing this, Yun Lintian laughed slightly as he felt it was funny. He waved his hand and said. "You should go to the class already. I have something to do."
"Oh. Okay. See you later, Brother Yun." Fei Mao nodded his head firmly and watched Yun Lintian walk away until the latter disappeared from his sight before turning around and heading to the study building.
An hour later, Yun Lintian arrived at Hong Wuya's courtyard. He entered the courtyard directly and saw Yang Chen sitting on the bed, seemingly falling in deep thought.
"You're here." Cai Xuwen immediately greeted, seeing Yun Lintian appear.
"Sorry, I was late." Yun Lintian said apologetically and turned to look at Yang Chen. "How do you feel, Brother Yang?"
Yang Chen was awoken from a daze to see Yun Lintian. He hurriedly replied. "Thank you, Brother Yun. I'm much better now."
Yun Lintian pulled a chair to the bedside and sat on it while asking. "I know you are in a hurry, but isn't this too reckless? What would happen to your sister if something happened to you? And there's your little girlfriend too. Even if you don't care about your life, you should think about them before taking a risk like this."
Yang Chen immediately lowered his head in shame. He was indeed too reckless this time. He had overestimated his strength and believed everything would be easy for him to grab because he had inherited Yan Qi's legacy. Unfortunately, the reality had proven otherwise.
"Well, I'm not your father either. I don't have a duty to teach you. This will be the last time I told you this." Yun Lintian didn't intend to reprimand Yang Chen further. He changed the topic. "Why don't you tell me what did you see in there?"
Yang Chen went silent for a while before raising his head and saying. "I met a devil. A very terrifying devil.." His face was a bit pale, and a trace of fear could be heard in his voice.
