Chapter 542: Chapter 218: Little Lewd Thief, The Ten True Transmissions of Luoxia Sect!
Crunch⊠CrunchâŠ
As Yin Li turned her gaze toward Luo Cheng, the moisture in the air began to condense into snow and ice, drifting peacefully to the ground.
Luo Cheng immediately felt an overwhelming chill. Frost formed on his brows and hair, and his blood seemed to freeze solid!
Boom! Boom!
His blood and qi surged through his body like a raging torrent. With a forceful shake, the frost shattered instantly. His powerful life force counteracted the piercing cold.
âThis woman is formidable!â
Luo Cheng was internally shocked. A single glance from her carried such powerâthis was leagues ahead of Jin Luoming and the gray-haired elder!
Among the young female disciples of the Three Sects, only Yun Mengli had ever made him feel such pressure.
Yin Li appeared mildly surprised, giving Luo Cheng a once-over before saying:
âYour blood surges like a great river! Just your qi and blood can resist my Heavenly Cold Realm! Who wouldâve thought that a young scoundrel like you, though not very old, would possess such an extraordinary physique.â
âPity, though. You dared to lay hands on a disciple of the Luoxia Sect. Your death is inevitable.â
As she spoke, Yin Li lightly pointed her jade-like foot in mid-air, gliding gracefully toward Luo Cheng.
As she approached, everything around her froze, and the cold grew ten times more intense in an instant.
Swish, swish, swishâŠ
Snow and ice swirled through the heavens, and a bone-chilling wind raged within a ten-mile radius. Everyone could feel the stabbing cold seep into their bones.
Standing amidst the wind and snow, Yin Li looked like an unearthly Banished Immortal, pristine and icy.
Luo Cheng felt an overwhelming, suffocating pressure bearing down on him. Quickly, he circulated his Essence Energy to fend off the cold. A spark of wicked anger flared up in his heart as he roared at Yin Li:
âYoung scoundrel? Are you insane? Is this how you disciples of the Luoxia Sect actâcarelessly throwing around baseless accusations?â
âEven now, you plan to deny it?â
Yin Li raised her delicate brows slightly. Suddenly noticing the Identity Token hanging at Luo Chengâs waist, her eyes gleamed as she reached out with a grasping motion.
Swoosh!
Luo Cheng felt a powerful suction force envelop him, and his Identity Token flew uncontrollably into her hand.
âLuo Cheng, Core Disciple of the Xuanyuan Sectâs Inner SectâŠâ
Yin Li glanced at the token, her gaze growing ever colder. âNo wonder you act so brazenly. Do you think that being a Core Disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect gives you free rein to do as you please?â
Luo Cheng felt the oppressive chill surge toward him. He found it almost laughable. This misunderstanding could be cleared up with a single word to Jin Yuxi, yet this woman insisted on such arbitrary judgments, ignoring his words completely. He sneered coldly:
âIâd like to know how exactly Iâve acted so brazenly. If anything, itâs youâaccusing people without clarifying the facts first. Thatâs what Iâd call brazen.â
âStill daring to talk back to Senior Sister? Truly audacious! Senior Sister Yin Li, you must put him in his place!â
âExactly.â
A few female disciples of the Luoxia Sect chirped in agreement, each eager to see Luo Cheng harshly disciplined.
Alone with a woman, and Jin Yuxi in this stateânaturally, theyâd already labeled Luo Cheng as a shameless miscreant.
âIâm brazen, am I?â
Yin Li stared intently at Luo Cheng. Her incredibly beautiful face betrayed no emotion, but the air around them grew even colder. Everyone could sense the fury simmering within her.
At that momentâ
The icy wind roused a dazed Jin Yuxi, finally bringing her back to her senses.
âSenior Sister Yin Li, waitâŠâ
Seeing the scene before her, Jin Yuxi hurriedly struggled to her feet.
Yin Li shifted her gaze toward Jin Yuxi, her finger pointing at Luo Cheng. âJunior Sister Jin, was it this man who wronged you? Do not be afraid. Regardless of his identity, your Senior Sister will take responsibility for you today.â
âExactly, Junior Sister Jin, what exactly happened?â
The Luoxia Sectâs Inner Sect disciples all turned their eyes toward Jin Yuxi.
Jin Yuxi shook her head frantically. âSenior Sisters, youâve misunderstood.â
âLast night, I was returning to the Sect with Luo Cheng when we were ambushed halfway by a demoness from the Jile Sect. Thatâs why I sent out a distress signal. It was Luo Cheng who protected me along the way and saved me from harm.â
âHe saved you?â
Everyone was stunned, clearly unprepared for such a revelation.
Jin Yuxi nodded, casting a glance at Luo Cheng. âThat demoness was exceptionally fierce. If it werenât for Luo Cheng, I would have fallen victim to her hands.â
The female disciples of the Luoxia Sect exchanged bewildered glances, suddenly at a loss for words.
Just moments ago, they had all treated Luo Cheng as a villain and shamelessly branded him a scoundrel. Now, the truth was the exact opposite.
Even Yin Li froze briefly, also caught off guard by Jin Yuxiâs words.
Luo Cheng, who was brimming with frustration moments earlier, certainly wasnât about to let it slide. He smiled coldly at Yin Li and said:
âYou just called me a scoundrel. Now that the truth is out, shouldnât I get an explanation?â
Hearing this, the disciples of the Luoxia Sect were astonished.
No one expected Luo Cheng to dare speak to Yin Li like that!
To demand an explanation from Yin Li!
This was unprecedented.
Jin Yuxi hurriedly tried to mediate and stepped forward to introduce them. âLuo Cheng, this is Senior Sister Yin Li, one of the top ten True Disciples of the Luoxia Sect. Senior Sister Yin Li, this is Luo Cheng, a disciple of the Xuanyuan Sect!â
Top ten True Disciples, Yin Li!
Luo Cheng had suspected that she was no ordinary individual, but he hadnât expected her to be one of the top ten True Disciples of the Luoxia Sect.
He had heard of her beforeâa recently ascended True Disciple whose reputation had grown significantly in the past few years. Many even compared Yin Li to Yun Mengli.
However, the debate over who was stronger remained unsettled.
After a brief silence, Yin Li gently brushed her Storage Spirit Ring with her right hand, and a bottle of Elixir Pills appeared in her palm.
âThis contains five Meridian Opening Pills. If my observation is correct, your cultivation has already reached the Sixth Layer Peak of the Awakening Vein Realm, and you are on the verge of breaking through. These pills can help you overcome your bottleneck. Consider this both a token of gratitude for saving Junior Sister Jin and compensation for my earlier behavior.â
With a flick of her finger, the Jade Bottle shot toward Luo Cheng, carrying an air of condescension and charity.
Whizz!
Luo Cheng waved his hand, sending the bottle back. He said indifferently, âWhat I want, I will earn myself.â
If he accepted these five pills, it would only make her feel justified and disdain him further.
His pride wasnât worth a mere five Meridian Opening Pills!
Moreover, after last nightâs intense battle, he had already loosened the bottleneck to the Seventh Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm. With a little time, he could achieve a breakthrough naturally, with no need for external help.
âHmm?â
Yin Li caught the Jade Bottle, giving Luo Cheng a deep look.
She hadnât expected him to refuse. Her initial surprise quickly turned to mild annoyance, and her flawless face betrayed a trace of a cold smile.
In her view, Luo Chengâs refusal was nothing more than a facadeâmerely posturing to negotiate for greater benefits.
After all, Meridian Opening Pills were no trivial matter; to any Awakening Vein Realm cultivator, they were rare treasures.
With a wave of her finger, Yin Li produced another Jade Bottle. Her tone hardened as she said:
âTen Meridian Opening Pills!â
The nearby disciples of the Luoxia Sect were visibly stunned.
Meridian Opening Pills were as rare as treasures could be. Ten pills would even tempt the Core Disciples of the Three Sects.
A spirited female disciple of the Luoxia Sect commented, âTen Meridian Opening PillsâSenior Sister Yin Li has already shown immense sincerity. If youâre still not satisfied, youâre being far too greedy.â
Greedy?
Luo Cheng raised his brows.
Wasnât he the one being misunderstood here?
Forget it!
Unwilling to continue bickering with these self-righteous women, Luo Cheng fixed Yin Li with a steady gaze and said, âI donât want your things. But since you misunderstood me, an apology is in order!â
Yin Liâs delicate brows furrowed slightly. This was not at all what she had anticipated. She thought he would either accept or negotiate for more benefits, and she had prepared responses accordingly.
Luo Chengâs answer left her momentarily at a loss.
After a long, penetrating look at Luo Cheng, Yin Li handed the Jade Bottle to Jin Yuxi, then suddenly asked:
âJunior Sister Jin, was this demoness from the Jile Sect wearing a green dress, appearing to be in her twenties, and at the Peak of the Ninth Layer of the Awakening Vein Realm?â
Jin Yuxi immediately nodded. âYes! Has Senior Sister seen her?â
âItâs her!â
âWe encountered her just an hour ago!â
The nearby female disciples of the Luoxia Sect gasped, recalling the disheveled figure they had glimpsed by the Luoyan River.
A trace of a cold smile flickered across Yin Liâs face as she issued her order: âEscort Junior Sister Jin back to the Sect to heal. I will investigate to see who dares to act so brazenly.â
Without another word, Yin Liâs figure leapt into the air, soaring toward the direction of Luoyan River. With a single flash, she disappeared without a trace.
