Meanwhile, Ye Lin, stepping on his Flying Sword, arrived at Xuan Yong City after flying for half an hour.
Ye Lin stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the massive city gate before him.
"Is this Xuan Yong City? One of the major cities under Qingyun Sect's jurisdiction, it truly lives up to its reputation."
Ye Lin stood in the air, stepping on Evil Slayer, observing the giant city before him, a flicker of surprise in his eyes.
Before him was a colossal city, its walls lined with soldiers, and on the ground, several Qingyun Sect Disciples in white robes stood guard.
Countless common people entered and exited, and on the surface, everything appeared peaceful.
After a moment of contemplation in mid-air, Ye Lin descended Evil Slayer and arrived at the city gate.
"Senior Brother Ye."
As soon as he reached the city entrance, the Qingyun Sect Disciples nearby quickly stepped forward and bowed. As Qingyun Sect Disciples, who wouldn't recognize the six Personal Disciples? Oh no, now it's five Personal Disciples.
"Mm, how is Xuan Yong City currently?"
Ye Lin nodded and asked.
"Senior Brother Ye, according to our investigation, Xuan Yong City currently has thirty Qi Training Ninth Layer, five Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, three Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and one Foundation Establishment Late Stage evil Cultivator."
"They are currently entrenched within Xuan Yong City, and we have been waiting for the Sect's support."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lin nodded slightly, looking at the magnificent city gate before him.
"I have come specifically for this matter. Let's go, lead the way."
"Senior Brother Ye, this..."
Hearing this, the Disciple beside him looked hesitant. Five Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, three Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, and one Foundation Establishment Late Stage – what an immense force this was!
It was a power that could easily annihilate a minor force.
"Go."
After Ye Lin finished speaking, he stepped into the city. Seeing this, the Disciple gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and the surrounding Qingyun Sect Disciples gathered, following behind Ye Lin.
When a Qingyun Sect Personal Disciple traveled outside, their status was equivalent to an Elder, so they dared not disobey Ye Lin's orders.
Just as Ye Lin stepped into Xuan Yong City, on top of a tall building, two figures stood, staring intently at Ye Lin.
"Ye Lin now has a Golden Core Stage Master behind him, his own combat power is unparalleled, and with the full support of Giant Hammer Sect and Dan Valley, if we don't act now, the Saint position will be his."
"Are you willing to let this position go to someone else? Or do you have the confidence to contend with him?"
"How about it? Do you agree? What good will it do you if he becomes the Saint? As long as you agree to help me become the Saint, we'll split the vast Qingyun Sect fifty-fifty."
Wang Gang said to Ren Dong, who was wearing a Black Robed Man and carrying a long sword, standing beside him.
"I know his combat power; it's not beneath mine. If it's one-on-one, I'll be the one to die. Even with you, it'll be the same."
Ren Dong's lips moved slightly, and he shook his head.
"I can apply to the Li family for another Foundation Establishment Peak Elder to assist in the battle, and you can seek help from Heaven Sword Sect. At that time, with two Foundation Establishment Peak, are we still afraid of not being able to kill him?"
Wang Gang's face twisted, and he said with a murderous look at Ye Lin.
"Ye Lin's Master is a Golden Core Stage expert. It's inevitable he has some life-saving trump cards on him. What will you use to block them?"
"Don't worry, there's more than one Golden Core Stage expert. I've now fully gained the trust of the Li family's Old Ancestor. I also have Golden Core Stage means."
Wang Gang's face was full of smiles.
Looking at Wang Gang beside him, Ren Dong's eyelids twitched. He never expected this guy to have actually gained the full support of the Golden Core Stage expert, the Li family's Old Ancestor.
It seemed that none of his Senior Brother and Junior Sister were easy to deal with.
"Good."
Seeing Ren Dong nod, Wang Gang's heart rejoiced. It was done.
"Now, send a request for help to Heaven Sword Sect. I've been closely monitoring Ye Lin's movements. He accepted three tasks in Qingyun Sect, and Xuan Yong City is the last leg."
"Once he cleans up Xuan Yong City, he will return to Qingyun Sect."
"There's still more than a month until the Dragon and Tiger Struggle. This time returning to the Sect, it's very likely we won't have another chance. So, we only have one Opportunity."
"That is to set an ambush on Ye Lin's way back to Qingyun Sect."
Wang Gang leaned his hands on the railing in front of him, his face filled with murderous intent.
Ever since Ye Lin came out of seclusion, he had been closely monitoring Ye Lin.
Therefore, he knew all of Ye Lin's movements, so he wasn't afraid of Ye Lin escaping his control.
Ren Dong took out a jade talisman to seek help from Heaven Sword Sect, glancing at Wang Gang from the corner of his eye, his heart filled with vigilance.
He didn't believe a single word about Wang Gang sharing Qingyun Sect. Did he think the two great Golden Core Stage experts of Qingyun Sect were fools?
And now, Ye Lin was an invincible enemy, so he would deal with Ye Lin first. He was confident he could contend with Wang Gang.
"Strange, I felt like someone was watching me as soon as I entered the city."
On the ground, Ye Lin looked around. From the moment he entered the city, he had felt two gazes fixed on him.
A Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator's senses were extremely keen; it was not groundless.
"Could it be evil Cultivators?"
Ye Lin's eyes flickered.
"Senior Brother Ye, I forgot to mention something earlier. Before this, Senior Brother Ren and Senior Brother Wang were both in Xuan Yong City."
At this moment, the Disciple beside him stepped forward and said. Hearing this, Ye Lin suddenly understood.
The ones who had been watching him just now must have been these two.
"What exactly do they want to do? Wang Gang wants to kill me, but he failed last time. Ren Dong is with him, which means Wang Gang wants to collude with Ren Dong?"
"If they really want to kill me, they definitely won't act within Xuan Yong City. The best Opportunity would be during my journey back to Qingyun Sect."
"Right, let's check the panel first. What changes are there on the panel?"
After pondering for a moment, Ye Lin decided to glance at his panel first.
Name: Ye Lin
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Late Stage
Destiny: White
Destiny Traits: 【Plain and Unremarkable】, 【Divine Comprehension】
Fate: Stops at Golden Core Initial Stage, ultimately killed by an evil demon.
Recent Opportunity: None
【Plain and Unremarkable】: Like an ordinary person, with no outstanding qualities.
【Divine Comprehension】: Extraordinary Comprehension Ability, extremely fast at comprehending various Cultivation Technique. The same Cultivation Technique takes others three months, but only a few days for you.
Recent Turning Point: Ren Dong and Wang Gang discussed and decided to ambush you with two Foundation Establishment Peak Elders a hundred miles outside Xuan Yong City. However, because you were well-prepared, you exerted all your strength to kill the two Foundation Establishment Peak Elders. Then, when you were about to kill Ren Dong and Wang Gang, at the critical moment, Wang Gang used a life-saving method given by a Golden Core Stage Cultivator to escape.
Looking at the panel, Ye Lin was slightly surprised. The original panel had an additional item: Recent Turning Point.
"Two Foundation Establishment Peak Elders, what a grand gesture."
Ye Lin sneered inwardly. The combat power of two Foundation Establishment Peak Cultivators was top-tier within Qingyun Sect. It seemed that other major forces were quite concerned about the Qingyun Sect Saint position.
"Come on, all of you, the more the better. It's a good Opportunity to weaken your forces."
"Senior Brother Ye, we've arrived."
As Ye Lin was pondering, the Disciple beside him reminded him. Hearing this, Ye Lin looked up.
Among the residential buildings ahead, Black Robed Men darted about, completely disregarding them.
Ye Lin then turned to look at the seven Qi Training Ninth Layer Cultivators behind him and fell silent.
He now seemed to understand the evil Cultivator's inner thoughts. No wonder the evil Cultivator dared to be so arrogant. This force before him, let alone killing evil Cultivators, it would be good if they could even protect themselves.
"You all, guard the exits around here!"
