He gently patted Zhiwei’s head: "Leave everything to Master."
He just assud Zhiwei was worried about the Lingyin Sect emissary.
Zhiwei raised her head, her beautiful black eyes shimring, she opened her mouth, but eventually only nodded.
Then,
a glaring streak of light tore through the clouds in the sky, carrying overwhelming montum, and descended outside Lisong Valley!
The spiritual pressure was domineering and unapologetic, sweeping through the entire valley, causing the dicinal farrs to kneel in fright, trembling.
The protective array at the valley entrance shook violently in response, rippling.
"What a grand spectacle!" Chen Ye’s face turned cold.
The visitor had bad intentions, which were fully on display at that mont.
Such an undisguised display of power was more of an intimidation than a welco for a True Inheritor.
"Sothing’s wrong... still not right. The other party is too rude."
He considered countless possibilities, feeling sothing was amiss.
The other party obviously harbored malice toward him.
Yet Chen Ye hadn’t offended any Cultivators at the Late Foundation Establishnt stage... The Wei Family didn’t have anyone at the Late Foundation Establishnt stage, and the Xu Family had their ancestor, so who would be so impertinent?
The streak of light dissipated, revealing a slender figure.
The visitor was a young cultivator wearing a Lingyin Taoist robe.
He stood tall and straight, his long hair tied with a jade crown, his complexion fair, his brows and eyes like a painting, eerily beautiful.
After landing, the handso cultivator quickly surveyed the audience, finally fixing his gaze on Bai Susu.
He imdiately bead a smile as warm as a spring breeze, his voice clear:
"Junior Sister Bai! Finally found you! I heard you were trapped in the Grotto Heaven, and I was worried sick, wishing I could trade places with you! Now seeing you safe and sound, it truly feels like heavenly protection, and I can finally set my mind at ease!"
Bai Susu recognized him, her eyebrows knitting slightly: "Zhao Xiangzhen? How did the sect send you?"
She covertly transmitted to Chen Ye: "This person is a True Inheritor from the Upper Three Mountains of Lingyin Sect, Sixth-Layer Foundation Establishnt."
Lingyin Sect has nine True Inheritors, divided into the Upper, Middle, and Lower Three Mountains based on their origin.
The Upper Three Mountains refer to the True Inheritors from the Bai and Zhao families.
Actually,
Lingyin Sect’s True Inheritors are not simply disciples; they are the core of Lingyin Sect’s power.
This is because the Lingyin Sect cultivators only pursue the path of Guardian and Steward if all other prospects are cut off.
The remaining cultivators then strive with all their might to compete for the nine True Inheritor positions.
It could be said that the nine True Inheritors represent the most talented and powerful group of Lingyin Sect cultivators!
Of course, this does not an there are no other formidable figures within the sect.
Throughout history, so True Inheritors have failed to attain Core Formation. Most of these individuals ultimately beco leaders of the Thirty-six Peaks of the Outer Sect, the Twelve Peaks of the Inner Sect, and various institutions within the sect, possessing formidable strength.
Various pieces of information flashed through Chen Ye’s mind, his expression grave.
So, this person is only at the Middle Period of Foundation Establishnt, not the Late Period as he had thought. This ans his spiritual power is already on par with the Late Period of Foundation Establishnt, showcasing extraordinary talent.
Zhao Xiangzhen was accustod to her indifference, his smile warm, even taking two steps closer, his gaze lingering on her without any reservation.
"Junior Sister, you’ve finally returned. I’ve been worried about you for a whole six months!"
Zhao Xiangzhen’s voice was as gentle as water, but directed solely at Bai Susu,
"Is this the person who took you away, causing you to fall into danger?"
He directly labeled Chen Ye as the culprit.
Chen Ye understood why this person was hostile toward him.
So, he actually harbors feelings for Bai Susu, this Little Demon!
But co to think of it, it’s only natural. Bai Susu is regarded as Lingyin Sect’s top True Inheritor, also the direct descendant of the Bai Family, in appearance... she seems youthful but undoubtedly extrely beautiful.
Even if her reputation within the sect is not great, with the nickna of a troublemaking Demon King, many people secretly admire her.
"Zhao Xiangzhen, wipe that look off your face."
Bai Susu had no appreciation, her tone impatient,
"Since when do I need you to worry about my affairs? Also, Chen Ye is a hero who saved my life, speak more politely."
"A hero?"
Zhao Xiangzhen sighed, his voice gentle,
"Junior Sister, could it be that you’ve been deceived by this person? How could an Outer Sect dicinal Farr have the ability to save you? In my view, he has long colluded with Demon Cultivators, deliberately showing you favor, intending to plot against our sect’s foundation, which is a grave cri! Now, daring to reside in the sa valley as you, is an even greater offense! Chen Ye, why don’t you kneel quickly and confess your guilt!"
As he spoke, his tone suddenly turned cold, harsh and severe, revealing murderous intent.
Is this the person... causing Junior Sister Bai to rather not return to the sect, preferring to stay in Lisong Valley?
Zhao Xiangzhen understood that although Bai Susu told the sect that she was severely injured and needed to recuperate before traveling,
yet as the Bai Family’s direct descendant, why would she need to travel on her own?
Obviously, she was concerned about the aftermath from the Grotto Heaven affecting Chen Ye and deliberately stayed here, protecting Chen Ye with her status!
Inside the courtyard, the atmosphere suddenly dropped to freezing.
Zhiwei’s small hand instantly clenched.
Lin Qiongyu’s expression turned deathly pale, and Qing Jun peeked out from the kitchen, her little face full of anger. If not for Lin Qiongyu holding her back tightly, she would have rushed out.
Little Shuyao shrank further into Zhiwei’s embrace in fright.
Chen Ye’s expression remained unchanged, as the chanism of Life and Death Reincarnation turned, continuously revolving around its profound intent, forcibly withstanding that terrifying pressure.
His gaze was cold as he locked eyes with Zhao Xiangzhen and was about to speak, when Bai Susu suddenly exclaid sharply: "Shut up!"
Chen Ye remained unflustered, while Zhao Xiangzhen had already said with a smile: "Indeed, this place isn’t where you have any say."
"Annoying... I was telling you to shut up!"
Bai Susu stood in front of Chen Ye, unaware that Chen Ye was about to speak.
