Once, as an Inner Sect Disciple of the Jade Pot Sect, when Yin Huan went to the Shang Family in Moon Bow City, even the Family Head of the Shang Family had to treat him with courtesy. Among the younger generation of the Shang Family, except for Shang Huiyu who was the most talented at the ti, no one else even had the qualifications to et him.
It was during that ti, the lofty Yin Huan t Yun Xiao for the first ti. If it weren’t for being entrusted by the Lingyun Sect of the Lingtian Empire to go to the Shang Family to dissolve an arranged marriage, he probably wouldn’t have deigned to give Yun Xiao a glance.
Even then, Yun Xiao displayed so qualities different from ordinary youths, and even provided a Spiritual Rank Interdiate Pill Recipe which completely resolved the pain of the Three Yin ridians for him and his master. Yet, Yin Huan didn’t pay much attention to Yun Xiao.
But in just over a year and a half, that young boy whom Yin Huan could once easily target the throat, had grown into a genius of the Inner Sect of the Jade Pot Sect, whose powerful ridian Techniques he could not handle.
After recounting these mories in his mind, a strong sense of unwillingness and imbalance surged in Yin Huan’s heart. He had always regarded himself as the most talented individual in the Jade Pot Sect, limited only by his age compared to his two senior brothers.
But now, when Yin Huan saw a youngster much younger than himself, and previously seen as unfit for the stage, threatening to surpass him, he couldn’t hold back his murderous intent any longer.
"Yun Xiao, I let you escape once in the Jade Pot Cave, but today you won’t have such good luck!"
Yin Huan emitted a faint dangerous aura, his words carrying a specific significance. However, Yun Xiao had heard such phrases many tis before; how could he take them seriously?
If standing before Yun Xiao were Yue Qi or Bi Luo, he might take a mont to consider, but just a Middle Stage of the ridian Rushing Realm like Yin Huan didn’t qualify to make him retreat.
"Elder Brother Yin Huan, considering we are from the sa sect, I don’t want to fight you just yet; you better leave quickly!"
Yun Xiao’s eyes twirled; his words were completely different from what Yin Huan hoped for. Under his threats, shouldn’t the boy be fearful or at least wary?
Yun Xiao’s few words ignited another surge of anger in Yin Huan, who rembered the tis he used to speak from high above. Since when had it beco the turn of this lowly insect-like Yun Xiao?
Boom!
However, just as Yin Huan decided to fight Yun Xiao to the death right here, a slightly weak vibration was suddenly heard from another cave in this space.
"This aura..."
Yun Xiao’s mind stirred, paying no attention to the tense atmosphere, and when he sensed this aura, his eyes revealed a hint of puzzlent.
"Could it be... Ice Whisker Grass?"
As certain mories surfaced in Yun Xiao’s mind, he guessed, and with that thought, he no longer had any intention of entangling with Yin Huan.
After all, Yun Xiao was invited here to this ridian Treasure by Mo Qing, mainly to find the Ice Whisker Grass. This was not only beneficial for Mo Qing’s special Cultivation Technique, but it might also cure the suspected poisoning of Li Shan.
And crucially, the Ice Whisker Grass also held so unknown benefits for Yun Xiao himself, so how could he delay here upon sensing an aura that might be the Ice Whisker Grass?
"Apologies, I must leave!"
Yun Xiao made a quick decision, stored the Drunken Immortal Tang into his Waist Storage, and his figure swiftly dashed towards the cave from which the aura emanated, leaving Yin Huan incredibly infuriated by this act.
"Boy, do not flee!"
A loud shout ca from Yin Huan, who misunderstood that Yun Xiao found an excuse to escape, perhaps even out of fear. At this mont, his aura peaked.
But what Yin Huan did not realize was that Yun Xiao’s hasty departure was not driven by his Middle Stage ridian Rushing Realm strength, but by not wanting to miss out on the Ice Whisker Grass.
Only when Yin Huan chased after him, failing to catch up to Yun Xiao, did he realize that just the speed might put Yun Xiao above him, and his plans to kill Yun Xiao might also fall through due to this odd speed.
......
Inside the ridian Treasure, a certain space!
This Spiritual Rank Interdiate ridian Treasure comprised various large and small spaces, each containing so Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of either Low Level or Middle Level Spiritual Rank, like this one.
Two silhouettes, one black and one green, stood in two different positions, the black one graceful in figure, indeed Mo Qing, the number one genius girl from the dical Pulse of the Jade Pot Sect.
As for the figure in green, he is also of significant origin, as he is the only Poison Vein genius in the younger generation of the Jade Pot Sect who can compete with Mo Qing, nad Yue Qi.
At this mont, the gaze of these two geniuses was fixed on a nearby cave wall, where there was a small platform jutting out.
Mo Qing and Yin Huan were not focused on this small platform, but rather on the Crystal Grass that grew there, which upon sight, filled Mo Qing’s beautiful eyes with a glint of intense excitent.
"Is that the Ice Whisker Grass?"
Ever since Yun Xiao ntioned the Ice Whisker Grass, Mo Qing had been paying careful attention to it in certain areas of the Jade Pot Sect, even asking her teacher, Lu Zhan.
Thus, although Mo Qing had never seen Ice Whisker Grass or even heard of it before, she had so unsure guesses when she first saw the Ice Crystal Grass on that platform.
This was unlike ordinary grass, as these seed to contain an extrely cold attribute, with ice-crystal-like tendrils spreading out from each blade of grass, making it look extrely mystical.
"Yue Qi, can you let have this?"
Mo Qing suppressed the excitent in her heart and finally turned her gaze to the person not far beside her, her words clearly containing a hint of compromise.
This Ice Whisker Grass was too important for Mo Qing, as it related not only to her own Cultivation Technique but also to the suspected severe poisoning of Elder Li Shan. She did not want to give up on the Ice Whisker Grass for any reason.
However, Mo Qing knew that Yue Qi’s strength might not be much less than her own, and if they started fighting, it wouldn’t end quickly, possibly giving others an advantage.
"Hehe, Junior Sister Mo Qing, I also fancy this item, let’s rely on our own abilities then!"
Who knew that upon hearing Mo Qing’s unprecedented humble plea, Yue Qi showed no appreciation, but rather developed a covetous desire for the Crystal Grass.
Truth be told, Yue Qi originally didn’t know what the Ice Crystal Grass was, but now seeing Mo Qing so earnest over this cluster of grass, willing to speak such words, he instinctively thought it must be no ordinary thing.
Even if Yue Qi could not recognize the specifics of the Ice Whisker Grass, its Interdiate Spiritual Rank aura could not be concealed. In these Interdiate Spiritual Rank ridian Treasures, such items are rarely seen, so how could he possibly give it up just because of what Mo Qing said?
Swoosh!
The mont Yue Qi’s words fell, a black figure had already dashed towards that side of the cave wall. It turned out that upon hearing his words, Mo Qing realized it wouldn’t be easy to get the Ice Whisker Grass, so she decided to act first decisively.
"Humph!"
Seeing Mo Qing’s movent, Yue Qi let out a cold snort, and his moves were incredibly quick. With both hands moving, two streaks of green light were already shot towards a point one foot in front of the Ice Whisker Grass.
It seed Yue Qi knew his speed wasn’t necessarily faster than Mo Qing’s. Since she had the lead, using his own speed wouldn’t be enough to catch up, so he imdiately deployed his ridian Qi.
The toxicity in Yue Qi’s ridian Qi was much more formidable than Yin Huan’s. Also, his attack aid very cunningly. If Mo Qing tried to reach for the Ice Whisker Grass, she would inevitably encounter his potent ridian Qi first, thus slowing down her collection of the grass.
Indeed, upon seeing those two streaks of green light, Mo Qing internally cursed but dared not risk her body. She knew full well how formidable the toxin from these Poison Vein Masters was; once contracted, the consequences would be endless.
Swoosh!
As Mo Qing retracted her hand to retreat, Yue Qi’s reaction was not slow, knowing this was his opportunity. Just grabbing that Ice Crystal Grass into his possession would make it far less easy for Mo Qing to seize it afterward.
These few swift exchanges were nearly as fast as lightning, but Yue Qi’s plan ultimately fell through, despite having the upper hand montarily.
However, this change was not from Mo Qing, his expected opponent, but from a sudden streak of light that appeared so fast it struck the Crystal Grass in a mont.
"Who dares to sche in front of , Yue Qi? Tired of living, aren’t you?"
With Yue Qi’s sensing, he imdiately saw that the streak of light appeared to be a ridian Qi Sword, and he roared out in anger, his voice filled with a trace of killing intent.
Indeed, previously outside, Yue Qi had seen those cultivators who ca to this ridian Treasure, and even the Family Heads of the Zhao and Cao families probably wouldn’t match him. In his eyes, his only competitor was Mo Qing alone.
But now, the ridian Qi Sword that erged from nowhere was surely controlled by soone, and daring to play tricks in front of him, the Grand Elder Brother of the Poison Vein of the Jade Pot Sect, how could he possibly swallow this insult?
However, this threatening voice laden with killing intent did not cause the ridian Qi Sword to pause for even a mont. Seeing the sword tip pierce into the base of a cluster of Crystal Grass, it then dashed off with the grass towards a certain direction at high speed.
