“Lu Xuan, Vice City Lord of Divine Sword City, greets the Imperial Lord.”
Upon seeing that human face, Lu Xuan, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed in the sky, immediately stood up and came to Ye Lin’s side, cupping his fists in a bow towards Xue Dao.
If this Xue Dao truly came for revenge, he would stop him no matter what.
This Divine Sword City Grand Competition was hosted by Divine Sword City. If someone were to be killed in Divine Sword City because they won, and their backing came for revenge, then the prestige of Divine Sword City would be greatly diminished.
“I’m not that petty. Go and preside over your Grand Competition properly.”
Seeing Lu Xuan’s behavior, the golden human face was amused and rebuked him with a laugh.
Given his status, Lu Xuan was merely a Junior; only Sword Void was his equal in status.
“Junior Ye Lin greets Senior.”
Hearing the discussions of the Cultivators around him, Ye Lin turned and bowed to the golden human face in the sky.
“Hmm, you are very good. My son is naturally arrogant, and what he has encountered today is the biggest setback he has faced in his growth so far.”
“I hope he can grow from this. Little friend, if you have time in the future, you are welcome to visit the Glazed Imperial Dynasty as a guest. I will personally welcome you.”
Xue Dao laughed heartily, then disappeared with Xue Sheng, who was unconscious on the arena.
Xue Sheng’s Luck Golden Dragon was severed by Ye Lin’s sword, and he now needed to take him back for repair.
When the Luck Golden Dragon is severed, it is equivalent to severing one’s Luck, and the consequences can be significant or minor.
“Junior will remember. If I have time in the future, I will certainly accept the invitation.”
“Good, I await you.”
From afar, Xue Dao’s laughter echoed.
Watching Xue Sheng leave, Ye Lin smacked his lips.
Divine Sword City is at least a hundred million li away from the Glazed Imperial Dynasty, and Xue Dao was able to traverse such a vast distance in an instant. One has to admit that the methods of a Nascent Soul Realm True Person are truly terrifying.
“Many thanks, Immortal Master Lu Xuan.”
Ye Lin cupped his fists and bowed to Lu Xuan.
“It was merely a matter of convenience.”
Lu Xuan smiled slightly, then his figure floated into the sky.
Although Ye Lin was strong, his status and position were not worth his serious attention. A Prodigy, though a Prodigy, still needed to be able to grow.
Throughout history, how many astonishing Prodigies have died prematurely? As long as one can grow, whether you are a Prodigy or not, you can make Prodigies bow their heads.
“Benefactor has good Luck! You’ve gained a piece of Earth Rank Low Grade Divine Metal for free, even Little Monk feels a little tempted.”
Watching Ye Lin sit beside him, Wu Xin put his palms together and said with a smile.
To get a piece of Earth Rank Low Grade Divine Metal for free, honestly, he was envious.
He should have offended Xue Dao back then. People from the Imperial Dynasty are indeed rolling in wealth.
“Monk, there’s no need for that. Don’t you believe that with your wealth, this piece of Earth Rank Low Grade Divine Metal shouldn’t be much?”
Ye Lin said with a smile, while Wu Xin just smiled and remained silent.
“Ye Lin, you’re so strong! But you did a great job, I’ve long disliked that guy.”
“But when are you going to teach me how to practice swordplay? Sword Cultivators are so cool! I don’t like my sister’s sword, and Brother Wushuang’s sword is too overbearing, but your sword is just right for me.”
At this moment, Li Youwei secretly leaned on Ye Lin’s shoulder and whispered.
“Sword requires self-comprehension; others cannot teach it. If true Sword Dao Prodigies could be taught, then this world would belong to Sword Cultivators.”
“Spend more time watching Sword Cultivator duels and reading Sword Dao books; it will benefit you.”
Ye Lin pushed Li Youwei away, his face full of disdain.
“Hmph, if you don’t want to teach, then don’t! Why lecture me with such grand principles? I’m not talking to you anymore, hmph.”
Hearing this, Li Youwei folded her arms and immediately moved away from Ye Lin.
Why was Ye Lin’s tone exactly like her father’s, spouting grand principles that made her so annoyed?
Seeing Li Youwei’s expression, Ye Lin couldn’t help but smile helplessly.
In the blink of an eye, another day quietly passed. During this time, many Sword Cultivators appeared who interested Ye Lin.
From their battles, Ye Lin also discovered some of his own shortcomings.
That was the lack of a control-type Martial Skill.
His Martial Skills were all powerful and offensive, lacking control. If an enemy wanted to flee, he couldn’t stop them.
“If I rank among the top three this time, I will receive five thousand points. At that time, I will use these five thousand points to exchange for a control-type Martial Skill.”
Ye Lin pondered in his mind.
In Nameless Mountain, Spirit Stones are not recognized; only points are.
As long as you have points, you can do anything. If you have enough points, you can invite a powerful individual to personally perform Alchemy or Artifact Refining for you.
You can also invite a powerful individual to lecture the Dao to you alone, and they can resolve any doubts you have.
You can even invite a powerful individual from Nameless Mountain to take action and avenge you, whether it’s a personal grudge or a public one.
However, the lowest level of powerful individual you can invite is a Nascent Soul Realm True Person. To invite a Nascent Soul Realm True Person to personally take action for you would require so many points that even if Ye Lin worked tirelessly on missions, he wouldn’t be able to gather enough in a hundred years.
“Benefactor, how about we go for a stroll together?”
When the event ended, Wu Xin suddenly spoke.
“Alright.”
After pondering for a moment, Ye Lin nodded.
Going back now would only mean Cultivating. Taking a stroll to relax was also excellent.
Divine Sword City was extremely vast, and the two walked continuously until they reached a large mountain.
As the two were walking, a series of fighting sounds came from afar.
Ye Lin and Wu Xin exchanged glances, nodded in unison, and quietly crept towards the source of the fighting.
They saw three young men surrounding and attacking one young man in an open space, beating him so badly that he dared not fight back at all.
“Damn it, a Disciple from a small force dares not listen to my words? Truly deserving of death.”
“Exactly, how can such a treasure be something you can possess?”
“How about we just kill him? Anyway, no one will notice.”
“Are you an idiot? What place is this? Divine Sword City! A Nascent Soul Realm powerful individual is stationed here. If we kill this kid, we probably won’t be able to escape either.”
“The Immortal Master hasn’t taken action because we haven’t gone too far. Don’t worry about it, just cripple this kid and then leave.”
This scene made both Wu Xin and Ye Lin shake their heads.
As the saying goes, where there are many people, there is Jianghu, and where there is Jianghu, there are disputes.
Divine Sword City gathers the Prodigies of the entire Tianhe County, and every Prodigy is arrogant, with no one willing to submit to another.
Therefore, there were many conflicts.
“Benefactor, let’s go.”
Seeing this, Wu Xin felt bored and said to Ye Lin.
“Wait.”
Ye Lin grabbed Wu Xin, looking at the item in the hand of one of the young men.
“Monk, what is that?”
Hearing Ye Lin’s words, Wu Xin squatted slightly, his eyes narrowing. A moment later, his expression turned serious.
“Earth Rank Low Grade Spirit Treasure, Water Spirit Pearl. After refining it, one can increase their Spiritual Root grade, and there’s a high probability of transforming the Spiritual Root into a Water Spiritual Root.”
“What a treasure, but this only works for Inferior Spiritual Root, useless for me, Monk.”
Wu Xin shook his head, his face full of regret.
Although this Water Spiritual Root was good, it was useless to him.
It could only raise an Inferior Spiritual Root to Medium Grade, but it was useless for Medium Grade and High Grade Spiritual Roots.
“Benefactor, you wouldn’t be…?”
At this moment, Wu Xin suddenly thought of something and looked at Ye Lin with shock in his eyes.
After Ye Lin nodded, Wu Xin was greatly astonished.
