Long Road to Stardom

"And Brother Pei, you don't have to look at me with such worry. I will definitely get out alive. There are still many things waiting for me to do. I will definitely cherish my life."

Pei Yu didn't mind being seen through at all. Instead, he said, "I naturally believe in your ability, but I still want to remind you to take good care of yourself."

"Senior Brother Pei, I will." Lin Xing replied with a smile.

Suddenly, he felt a burning sensation on his chest. Lin Xing took off the "Concentric Jade" on his chest and saw that the essence and blood inside was actually disintegrating slightly.

"Oh no, something happened to Jiao Ran!"

Lin Xing's face changed slightly, and he immediately stood up and said to Pei Yu beside him, "Brother Pei, I'm afraid I have to leave for a while. Please talk to Senior Brother for me."

After saying that, he walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Pei Yu noticed that Junior Sister Lin looked a little strange, so he followed her and asked, "Junior Sister Lin, what happened?"

"A friend of mine is in trouble, and I need to go find her."

"Is it that demon cultivator?"

"Yes, she has always taken good care of me in the Blood Spirit Continent. I can't just leave her alone."

"Brother Pei, please stay. You don't have to follow us. If other cultivators see us rescuing a demon cultivator from the Xuan Yue Sect, it will probably cause a lot of trouble."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, but this trip will be very dangerous, so you must take care of your life. If you leave the ancient battlefield, return to the sect if possible!"

"Many disciples of the sect want to see you, and someone has already taken responsibility for what you did. Junior Sister Lin, you can return to the sect."

"I'll think about it carefully."

Lin Xing took a deep look at the cave behind him, turned around and prepared to leave, then turned back and warned, "Brother Pei, the injury on our eldest brother's body may be more serious than we thought, you must pay close attention to it."

Having said this, she left the dense forest.

After being some distance away from the dense forest, Lin Xing simply changed his appearance, put on a bamboo hat, changed his clothes, pasted a "magic talisman" on himself, and then cast the "Kunpeng Jue" to quickly rush in the direction sensed by the "Concentric Jade".

Seeing that the essence and blood in the 'Tongxin Jade' was increasingly dissipating, Lin Xing couldn't help but feel anxious. She was really afraid of losing it again.

Then, without caring that his blood and energy had not yet recovered, he forcibly cast the "Blood Shield Technique".

After performing the Blood Shield Technique twice in a row, Lin Xing's face turned pale as paper. If he hadn't been wearing a bamboo hat, people would have thought he was a female ghost.

Just as I recovered, I saw Jiaoran lying on the ground, not knowing whether she was dead or alive. My heart tightened and I didn't dare to go over to check.

He just murmured, "Is it still too late?"

The next second, an attack came towards Jiaoran. Lin Xing subconsciously summoned the 'Wind and Frost Sword' to block it. Then he flashed to Jiaoran's side and helped her up. Feeling the warmth from Jiaoran's body, Lin Xing cried with joy and quickly took out a sixth-grade pill and fed it to her.

Seeing that Jiaoran's breathing had stabilized a lot, Lin Xing looked up at the group of people who attacked Jiaoran.

"Ten Thousand Sword Sect?"

"Fellow Daoist, since you know we are from the 'Ten Thousand Swords Sect', why are you still protecting this evil cultivator? If you are sensible, leave all your belongings behind and we will spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude." Wang Ping looked at Lin Xing greedily and said.

Lin Xing said coldly, "Really? Then it depends on whether you have the ability to do it."

"If you don't drink the wine, you'll have to pay the penalty. Then you'll have to keep your life!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Ping swung an iron ball towards Lin Xing.

"Pretending to be pretentious..." Lin Xing controlled the 'Wind and Frost Sword' in his hand to block his attack, and then used the 'Wind and Frost Sword' to send out countless wind blades to counterattack. Before he could react to blocking the wind blades, the 'Night Phantom' hidden on the side went straight through his heart.

"clang..."

Lin Xing sighed with some regret and took back "Night Charm".

Wang Ping was also shocked. If it weren't for his life-saving jade token, he would probably be a corpse now.

He said with some fear and anger, "Brother Li, Brother Meng, why don't you take action quickly? Do you want me to die here?"

"Junior Brother Wang, you are joking. How dare we leave you alone? If the Sect Leader finds out, we will be in big trouble. We didn't take action because we saw that Senior Brother Wang was so brave and thought we could take him down in one fell swoop." Li Tianhua said with some flattery, but he was extremely disdainful in his heart.

When he thought of how Wang Ping had ordered him around along the way, he was filled with anger. He, a dignified Jindan cultivator, had actually been humiliated by him in this way. He relied on the fact that his grandfather was the leader of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. It was a pity that he didn't die here just now.

However, his intuition about the female cultivator in front of him told him to leave quickly. He was undecided for a moment. He had relied on this intuition to avoid countless dangers. But that female cultivator was indeed in the late Nascent Soul stage. How could he, a mid-stage Spirit Transformation cultivator, be afraid of a late Nascent Soul cultivator?

"Unless this female cultivator has hidden her cultivation level."

When he was hesitant, Wang Ping urged, "Brother Li, why don't you take action?"

This tone of voice again, Li Tianhua suddenly felt angry in his heart, but his face did not show it at all, instead he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Junior Brother Wang, I will come to meet her right away."

Li Tianhua took out a defensive magic weapon to protect his whole body, and then a banner appeared in his hand. With the injection of spiritual energy, the banner, which was originally only a few inches long, became several feet in size.

Lin Xing naturally also paid attention to the situation on the opposite side. He took out the few level five talismans he had on him to protect Jiao Ran, then stood up and looked forward.

The moment the talisman array was taken out, the greed in the eyes of Wang Ping and the others became more and more undisguised. They had seen the female cultivator feeding a pill to the demon cultivator before, but the distance was a bit far so they didn't notice what kind of pill it was. However, after the demon cultivator took the pill, his aura gradually stabilized, so they must have guessed that the pill must be of a high grade.

Lin Xing naturally noticed their looks, but she didn't care at all. She had seen this kind of looks too many times.

Now her mind was focused on the banner. Looking at the banner, she felt uncomfortable in her heart. She always felt that there was some evil spirit, which she had only felt on the evil cultivator before.

It seems that if this banner was not obtained from an evil cultivator, it would have required the sacrifice of countless people's blood to refine it.

Thinking of this, Lin Xing's eyes instantly turned cold, he put away the 'Wind and Frost Sword' in his hand, and summoned the 'Thunder Sword' in his body.

Seeing this, the greed in Li Tianhua's eyes had long disappeared, and he looked at the female cultivator not far away as if facing a formidable enemy.

Now he felt more and more confident in his previous instinct to leave, but when he thought about the restrictions set by the headmaster on him, if he left Wang Ping and ran away, he would be doomed when the restrictions were activated.
