As he spoke, he beckoned with his hand.
The young man in the brocade robe was imdiately drawn by a force that was no longer ordinary Golden Core-level mana, and fell before Li Ye, almost trembling as Li Ye left a mark on his forehead.
It was a mark of the Sun Dial.
The color currently marked was spring.
It would slowly revolve until the wheat ripened next year, when it would disappear.
The face of the middle-aged man turned even more unsightly; how could soone not even at the Golden Core stage wield Golden Core-level mana and casually use the Four Seasons Sect’s Sun Dial Talisman...
What sort of trouble had his rebellious son gotten into now!
At this mont, he felt no trace of luck; as he was about to say sothing to investigate, suddenly a voice ca from behind:
"What are you doing here?"
Upon hearing this voice, his heart sank like a stone, and he turned to bow and said, "Greetings, Senior Brother Wei!"
In the past, he was only an outer disciple, but was fortunate enough to listen to Wei Qingye’s master’s teachings, learned quite well, and the True Man gave him the status of a nad disciple.
Therefore, even though he was now at the late Golden Core stage, his path had already co to an end, and upon seeing Wei Qingye needed to respectfully call him Senior Brother Wei.
"Junior Brother Xu."
Wei Qingye walked over with a serious expression, his gaze sweeping across.
Especially upon seeing the clear marks on the ground even after cleaning, he roughly understood what had happened, and without hesitation, drew a long sword and casually struck.
"Swish!"
A deep sword mark appeared on True Man Xu’s arm, visible to the bone, with Sword Qi inside still gnawing at flesh and blood. Despite the pain, he still smiled: "Thank you, Senior Brother!"
If Wei Qingye didn’t discipline him, letting others find out he dared to tarnish True Man He’s reputation, his trouble wouldn’t just be injuries.
"Take your son and get out of here now."
"Your son should stop dreaming of swordsmanship, much less joining the sect, better learn to farm! How dare you do this!"
"Yes!"
Once True Man Xu swiftly left with his son, Li Ye discontentedly said, "What’s wrong with farming? If you have the skill, stop eating our Four Seasons Sect’s food!"
As he spoke, he beckoned with his hand again.
"Co!"
The bamboo sword, which had been obediently staying inside Wei Qingye’s scabbard, abandoned its owner at once, wagging its tail as if in a fawning manner around Li Ye.
Li Ye’s finger, bathed in gentle sunlight, softly caressed the bamboo sword, making it tremble in comfort.
Wei Qingye: "..."
He felt quite wronged, his intention was simply to have the fellow experience the hardship of farming, but admittedly, his words were sowhat awkward.
"I was wrong."
"Sigh, that fellow counts as my junior, yet who knew his offspring would commit such acts."
Wei Qingye clasped his fists apologetically toward the two Taoist friends who continued to pretend to eat noodles: "I apologize for the embarrassnt."
The two suddenly seed to notice Wei Qingye.
With bewildered expressions: "Ah?"
"We were just eating noodles."
"Indeed, the aroma of the noodles befuddled us; we didn’t notice you coming, Dao You, please don’t mind!"
——This handling thod was already quite skillful; naturally, they couldn’t possibly say anything further.
The atmosphere instantly beca harmonious.
During this ti, the noodle stall owner and his wife, along with a waiter, ca over to express their gratitude and presented Wei Qingye with a large bowl of beef noodles.
They genuinely had no other way to thank him, so all their gratitude could only be sumd up in that ticulously made bowl, piled high with beef.
Wei Qingye graciously ate it all up, sparing no complints.
As they left, Li Ye deliberately slowed his pace, leaving them a Four Seasons Jade Talisman capable of crossing regions, and highlighted: "Whenever you find yourself bored here, feel free to co settle on my Four Seasons Sect’s land.
Goodbye.
Your noodles are delicious!"
Finishing his statent, Li Ye stylishly turned and left, the noodle stall owner’s wife clutched the radiant jade talisman, deciding to buy a box to preserve it upon returning ho.
This would be their family’s future lifeline!
The Immortals of the Four Seasons Sect truly treated others with kindness.
...
Just as Li Ye caught up with the three others, he intended to say sothing.
Suddenly.
"Buzz—"
An intangible force swept over Ring Heaven City like wind brushing a forest sea.
Anyone with a bit of cultivation raised their heads.
They astonishingly saw—a clear blue cot suddenly appearing in the eternally white daylight Heavenly Do, devoid of clouds or rain, without darkness.
It looked as if a piece of the Sky Curtain had fallen off.
Streaking across the sky.
With dazzling splendor, the fla tail appeared differently colored from various angles as it traced a curve and fell.
And this was just the beginning.
No need to wait for the astonished cultivators to understand what it was, more and more cots of varying sizes fell one after another.
The number was vast.
A cursory glance revealed over forty fragnts.
These were over forty fragnts of the Celestial Vein! Inside lay the Divine Techniques as imprints on the Celestial Dao left by the ancestors of various sects who once established the universe!
"Is this my opportunity?"
Taoist Friend Zhu couldn’t hold back and wanted to rush over.
But just at that mont, countless splendid light beams shimred above the two walls inside and outside of Ring Heaven City.
As these lights intertwined through complex Array Patterns, they eventually extended, covering the circular city with a do.
Effectively protecting Ring Heaven City.
anwhile, a sword call echoed from the distant region of Celestial Vein Sword Mountain.
The sound resonated instantly through heaven and earth, carrying undeniable authority and grandeur: "Anyone fortunate enough to witness the Celestial Vein fragnts, if interested in competing, they may pass through the bridges atop Ring Heaven City to co here.
Friends within Ring Heaven City can choose to leave, enter or remain within the city, which is absolutely safe, and no fighting is allowed.
Disobeying will lead to death."
A straightforward warning.
Then, the distant sword call dissipated, without any intimidating sword light striking; yet no one would be foolish enough to test the sharpness of Celestial Vein Sword Mountain’s swords.
Even the brashest ones walked quietly outside, not daring to use Escape Light.
The four exchanged glances at the alley’s entrance—especially Wei Qingye and Li Ye, who previously anticipated the fall in seven days, aning this opportunity of Celestial Vein’s fall would last seven days?
This was sothing Wei Qingye had never seen nor heard from his sect.
Previous Celestial Vein falls were occasional, only a piece or two, but how co this ti it would persist for seven days straight?
Feeling concerned, he said, "I need to return to my sect; I won’t be involved in this event for now. You folks carry on as you will!"
With that said, he turned to transform into Sword Light and vanished.
Subsequently, Taoist Friend Zhu and Taoist Friend Lv also bid farewell; they were traveling companions with mutual trust, and such matters surely wouldn’t involve inviting Li Ye.
This, Li Ye understood quite well.
After they all left, Li Ye stood gazing at the continuously falling teors in the distance, contemplating for a long ti before deciding to take a look.
He must go.
Such exceptionally rare chances marked an opportunity; he possessed enough capability and ans to escape, avoiding it would be sowhat cowardly.
Spending so ti departing from Ring Heaven City, he astonishingly discovered that the barren land encircled by the city already had so flying prohibitions, while the surrounding Spiritual Qi environnt had beco particularly complex.
Even his Divine Sense, equivalent to Golden Core level, could only probe a distance of several dozen ters.
"Is it due to the Celestial Vein’s fall or so restrictions set by Celestial Vein Sword Mountain?"
This was beyond his guess.
He took off his shoes, stepping barefoot onto the ground.
This direct contact with the earth allowed him to perform the Earth Emotions Technique, and then, through Jianmu, concealed his aura, quickening his pace to hasten forward.
However, before he could walk a few miles, he suddenly sensed a Spiritual Power fluctuation abruptly appearing behind his head, heading straight for his skull!
This made his hackles rise, and without hesitation, he turned and struck back!
"Bang!"
It sounded like the complete shattering of glass.
Amid the fireworks-like display of light, a small stone, perated with multicolored light, fell to the ground and rolled near his feet.
