Qiao Yu violently spat out a mouthful of blood, barely forming a Soaring Eagle Technique aid at Lin Xin before staggering to his feet and moving toward the courtyard gate.
Pfft!
The soaring eagle was casually crushed by Lin Xin.
The gap was too wide.
One was at the fifth rank, unable to overco even the first level of the fairy soul.
The other was a pureblood Human Immortal at the third level of the fifth rank.
The gap between them was like the difference between a Yuan Jing and a Human Immortal.
The barrier rippled again and again, but remained intact, exceptionally sturdy; evidently, Elder Qing Shan had used his strongest barrier to protect his most beloved little disciple.
Lin Xin tapped his toes and teleported next to Qiao Yu.
He grabbed her long hair and lifted her entire body.
"What’s the use of a piece of trash like you living in this world? You might as well be dead."
He gripped Qiao Yu’s neck, his face calm and composed, yet his hand kept tightening its grip.
Thump thump thump!
Qiao Yu desperately circulated her True Force, repeatedly striking his arm, but it was immovable, not even trembling in the slightest.
Her face turned redder and bloodshot.
Her eyes, initially filled with resentnt and madness, finally showed fear, and she began to reveal a trace of pitiful pleading for rcy.
But because her throat was clamped, she couldn’t speak at all.
Crack crack...
A faint sound barely squeezed out from her throat.
The fear in her eyes grew thicker.
More and more people gathered outside the barrier, frantically attacking its thin film, which finally began to tremble slightly, and cracks started to appear on its surface.
"Please... I beg you... spare my life..."
Qiao Yu finally squeezed out a few syllables.
She now exceedingly regretted, if only she had known this new junior brother was so ruthless and vicious, she never would have dared to provoke him.
She who inherited the immortal soul, still had plenty of ti and life to enjoy. Why provoke such a madman for no reason?
Only then did she realize the aning of the words her senior brother and master kept reminding her.
So things, you shouldn’t wait until the outco is decided to regret, by then it’s already too late.
Crack!
The barrier shattered.
And the neck of Qiao Yu in Lin Xin’s grip broke as well.
He remained calm, tore her head off with a sharp motion, and casually tossed it aside, allowing it to roll on the ground, blood scattering everywhere.
Only then did he turn to look at those from the outer periter.
"Brother Feng, there’s no problem, right?"
Feng Huai made his way through the crowd, with a female guard following behind. Upon hearing the question, he laughed and said,
"Qing Shan cannot represent the entirety of Green Lake Mountain."
Everyone was stunned by Lin Xin’s actions, and for a mont, they were as silent as cicadas in winter, unsure of what to say.
Qiao Yu was dead.
Elder Qing Shan’s most cherished Qiao Yu was killed in broad daylight.
And the killer was none other than a fellow Sect disciple.
A few urgently arriving officers looked extrely disturbed, wanting to capture Lin Xin, but they were subtly intimidated by the woman behind Feng Huai.
The woman had her hand on her weapon at her waist, her expression both mocking and nonchalant, and her re presence was enough to send chills down the spine of those officers contemplating drawing their swords.
Those who thought about unsheathing their swords all felt a chill in their hearts, daring not to make a move.
"Fairy Qiao is dead... It was her own fault." Feng Huai unabashedly spoke out, his voice loud,
"She embezzled the life tower originally ant for Brother Lin Xin, causing Brother Lin to nearly perish in the recent battle.
Perhaps you are still unaware, to this day, Brother Lin hasn’t even been given the subsequent Cultivation Techniques of the Green Yuan Decision."
He paused and started laughing coldly.
"I don’t know what kind of treatnt True Disciples of Qing Shan Sect are supposed to receive, but I know that even a regular Core Disciple is entitled to be taught the fifth rank and above techniques of Green Yuan Decision."
As the crowd continued to grow, the cultivators of White Jade City, who were mostly just passing by and had been staying in their respective Cave Mansions, were now startled by Feng Huai’s words, causing a commotion.
Not even receiving the subsequent techniques for Green Yuan Decision, if one could continue to stay content with that, it would be truly absurd.
The cultivators present, who ca to Green Lake Mountain with the goal to practice Cultivation and seek longevity,
thought of Lin Sherie Lin Xin, a top genius born as a fifth rank pureblood, progressing faster than most.
Withholding Cultivation Techniques from him was like intentionally holding him back.
And another group of people thought of sothing else.
Qiao Yu was dead.
In White Jade City, no one didn’t know Qiao Yu, just as no one didn’t know Elder Qing Shan.
The consequences this incident could trigger were far from being as calm as they appeared now.
"Enough said," Feng Huai looked at Lin Xin. "Brother Lin, let’s go."
Lin Xin nodded.
"Who dares to leave!?"
Suddenly, a thunderous roar resonated down from the skies above Qiao’s mansion.
A young man’s eyes were red with rage, enveloped in the blue light of thunder, suddenly appearing above the residence.
"Huan Ping, brother, this matter is clear-cut and has been decided. What do you want to do by coming out now?" Feng Huai sneered coldly.
Huan Ping’s body trembled slightly as he received the news and rushed here as quickly as he could, but to no avail; he was still a step too late.
The junior sister still died.
He had promised his master to take good care of his junior sister and never let her suffer the slightest grievance.
But now, she had been brutally murdered right in front of him, in his own ho!
"Feng Huai, you want to interfere in this?!" Huan Ping lowered his voice, barely suppressing the tremor of murderous intent in it.
"Brother Feng just happened to pass by and couldn’t stand it, so he drew his sword to help, elder brother...." Lin Xin began slowly.
"Shut up!" Huan Ping shouted abruptly, interrupting him, "Don’t call elder brother, you dare to disrespect and cause trouble at the slightest injustice, plotting against your own sect sister! I don’t have a junior brother like you!"
"Huan Ping, after such a long ti, even a nice guy like you has beco so blinded."
The female guard standing behind Feng Huai stepped forward and spoke in a low voice.
"It’s you!"
When Huan Ping saw the female guard, his face suddenly changed.
"Let’s go." Feng Huai laughed loudly, and together with the female guard, they left the courtyard and soared into the sky.
"Don’t you dare leave! Stay!!!"
But Huan Ping could no longer contain himself, and with a sudden grasp, a giant hand composed of green gas erged in the air, fiercely clawing towards Lin Xin and the others.
"Overestimating your abilities!"
The female guard turned around and opened her right hand.
To the horror of all, her palm was densely covered with dozens of tiny eyes, all blood-red, sinister and mysterious.
Hiss hiss hiss hiss!!!
All the eyes simultaneously emitted a brilliant golden light, sending out fine beams that struck the green hand.
They were only locked in stalemate for an instant before the beams rcilessly pierced through the hand, and with slightly diminished power, ferociously lunged at Huan Ping.
Huan Ping’s face turned pale as he quickly produced a wine pot-shaped treasure to et the attack.
Bang!!
He was hit by the golden light, and in an instant, he was engulfed in the golden radiance.
After a mont, when the golden light dispersed, he fell from the sky, charred and ashen-faced, caught by several leaders who rushed forward to support him.
A Fifth Rank expert at Perfection, was almost rendered powerless by a single ray of golden light.
The rest of the people, including those from the Heavenly Evolution Tower and other high-ranking officials who had just arrived, were too late.
They had heard what Feng Huai said just now, but at this point, it was difficult to take sides.
They were not affiliated with the Qing Shan Realm but were responsible for establishing a branch on behalf of the main sect. They tended to side with the Qing Shan Realm, but they also knew of Qiao Yu’s character.
In front of such a large audience, with so many witnesses, if they show blatant favoritism,
The reputation of the Qing Shan Realm would be ruined.
Besides, Feng Huai was present.
No one present wanted to make an enemy of the Feng Family over a dead person, especially during a war when they had asked for the Heavenly Evolution Tower.
They could see that Feng Huai was determined to support Lin Xin.
The Heavenly Evolution Tower had been intercepted, and it was during a war that the tower requested was hijacked, which almost caused the downfall of their lord.
The gravity of this situation was self-evident. If not handled correctly, it could dishearten many Void Territory lords who were ready to give their lives.
Especially now, at such a critical ti, this was particularly true.
No one doubted Feng Huai’s words, given his status; the things he spoke of, he himself did not dare to have the slightest falsehood.
However, the focus of this incident was not on Qiao Yu but on how the Qing Shan Realm Master would react.
Qiao Yu was the Qing Shan Realm Master’s most cherished disciple, so even though she was incompetent and arrogant, the entire Qing Shan Realm still did not dare to provoke her.
And now, she was dead.
Many people inwardly cheered, but they also had to consider the chain reactions that this event would trigger.
"Regarding this matter..." the head of the research institute was a good friend of an Elder of Qing Shan, shaking his head now, "Surely the Realm Master has already responded. Huan Ping is impulsive by nature and acted out of anger, it’s best he returns to rest for the ti being."
"It was Qiao Yu’s fate to encounter this calamity." The person in charge of the Heavenly Evolution Tower, a blind old woman, remained indifferent.
"This matter should be dealt with as it should be, Qiao Yu broke the sect rules, and her death is her destiny. Qing Shan old man, when he cos back, must settle it as such."
She did not give the least bit of face to the Qing Shan Realm Master.
"Sigh..."
The head of the research institute heaved a long sigh, saying no more, but his gaze lingered on the direction in which Feng Huai and the others had left, deep in thought.
***********************
Feng Huai took Lin Xin directly onto the Teleportation Formation, and a flash of white light followed.
The three appeared in a verdant wilderness.
Lin Youke and the others had been waiting for a long ti, prepared and with all their belongings packed into spatial equipnt.
"My lord!"
Upon seeing Lin Xin and the others erge, Lin Youke stepped forward to greet them with a fist salute.
"Many thanks to Brother Feng for the arrangents," Lin Xin said solemnly to Feng Huai.
"Why ntion it, Brother Lin? Back in Snowman City, you saved nurous tis; without you, I would have died there. Isn’t bringing up such things now rather estranging?"
Feng Huai said with a laugh. "Besides, the Qing Shan Realm does not represent Green Lake Mountain."
His smile suddenly turned cold.
Wild grass surrounded them, and it was unclear to which place they had been transported.
But at least, they were no longer in White Jade City.
"Here we have one of the Feng Family’s Void Transmission Formations. We will take a direct route to the Void Territory. Pack up your daoist weapons, and let’s head for a place," he continued.
Upon receiving the ssage from Lin Xin, he had quickly made arrangents.
When he spoke now, everything was ticulously organized.
"The decline of the Qing Shan Realm is no coincidence. Just consider the treatnt Brother Lin received within it, and you can imagine. And this is only one of the reasons," the female guard interjected.
