Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Seeing Wang Tao nod, Zhuo Jiao knew that he didn't take her words seriously at all, so she could only hold the two female disciples tightly with both hands.

Wang Tao grew impatient and frowned, saying, "Have you said everything you needed to say? Let's go, don't waste any more of my time."

The two female disciples felt a pang of anxiety upon hearing his words. Although they were extremely unwilling, they had no choice but to leave with Wang Tao for the sake of their fellow disciples.

Wang Tao laughed heartily, put one arm around each of them, and walked towards the door.

Zhuo Jiao followed them outside. Wang Tao casually said to her, "Sect Leader Zhuo, you can go back now. No need to see me off."

Zhuo Jiao watched the three of them leave with a livid face. Only after they were out of sight did she turn back inside, her face already streaked with tears.

Seeing Wang Tao and the other two leave, Ye Yu whispered to Yinling, "I'll follow them and see. If your senior sister and the others haven't returned before dark, then it means I've failed."

Yinling panicked when she heard this and quickly grabbed Ye Yu's hand, saying, "Sister Yu Ye, if that's the case, you shouldn't take the risk."

Ye Yu had already made up her mind last night. She had originally planned to leave in the next few days, and going to rescue people today would also be a good deed for Jingxin Sect.

She patted Yinling's head: "Don't worry, I don't do things I'm not sure I can do. My injuries have healed. Whether I can save your senior sister today or not, I have to leave to take care of my business."

Upon hearing this, Yinling was about to cry again: "Sister Yu Ye, are you leaving already?"

"Of course, I still have a lot to do. When I go to rescue your senior sister, just tell your master and don't tell anyone else."

After saying this, Ye Yu handed Yinling a small bottle: "There are some pills I made myself in here. Taking them will greatly help your cultivation. Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."

After Yinling accepted the bottle, Ye Yu turned and walked out of the Tranquility Gate.

Following in the footsteps of Wang Tao and the others, she quietly caught up. Although she could no longer see them, Ye Yu quickly spotted them using her divine sense and the traces of their footsteps.

Wang Tao noticed a commotion behind him, released his arms from the two female disciples and looked back. He saw a beautiful woman with a cool and aloof demeanor, dressed in the robes of a Jingxin Sect disciple, standing not far away.

He sized Ye Yu up and down, then said lecherously, "Oh my, I didn't know the Jingxin Sect had such an outstanding female disciple? Are you reluctant to part with your two senior sisters and have come to see them off?"

The two female disciples naturally recognized Ye Yu. Their master had said that they shouldn't implicate her. One of them hurriedly said, "Junior sister, you should go back quickly. We're fine, don't see us off."

As she spoke, she winked at Ye Yu, clearly afraid that Wang Tao, that lecherous man, would take a liking to her.

Ye Yu understood what they meant, gave them a reassuring smile, and said to Wang Tao, "Yes, I can't bear to part with my senior sister. Can you let them go?"

Wang Tao paused for a moment, then stroked his chin with his right hand and looked Ye Yu up and down, saying, "If you want me to release your senior sister, that's fine, but you'll have to come with me."

Upon hearing his words, Ye Yu looked him up and down, then scoffed, "Go with you? What would I want from you? That you're a decrepit old man? Or that you're impotent?"

Wang Tao's face turned ashen when Ye Yu hit a nerve. He sneered, "You brat, you won't listen to reason, so here we are. Let's see how sharp-tongued you are in a bit."

He pulled out the iron hammer from his waist and swung it at Ye Yu.

The hammer in Wang Tao's hand was not weak; the wind it generated was almost tangible, and it made a whooshing sound when he swung it.

Ye Yu's bone sword was no weaker than the iron hammer. She twirled the sword a few times, and with a flash of blue light, she attacked Wang Tao without leaving any gaps.

In just a few breaths, the two had exchanged several blows.

Wang Tao was quite surprised. Judging from Ye Yu's attire, he was indeed a member of the Jingxin Sect, but even the sect leader Zhuo Jiao was no match for him and was defeated in just over ten moves.

Why was this young female disciple able to easily parry his moves?

Wang Tao didn't understand, but his moves became even more ferocious. He swung the iron hammer as if it were his own arm, and countless hammer shadows smashed towards Ye Yu.

Ye Yu unleashed several sword energies to deflect the incoming hammer shadows and surrounded Wang Tao.

Unable to dodge in time, Wang Tao was slashed by several sword energies. He roared and slammed the iron hammer in his hand into the ground, scattering all the sword energies surrounding him and knocking down a bunch of tree branches.

While he was still burning with rage, Ye Yu shot out fifteen bone needles at once, leaving more than a dozen holes in Wang Tao's body.

Wang Tao stood there, an expression of disbelief on his face. He shakily raised his right hand and pointed at Ye Yu, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, several mouthfuls of blood gushed out.

Wang Tao had no strength left to support himself and fell straight to the ground, his eyes wide open.

He couldn't understand it until his last breath: even the leader of the Jingxin Sect was no match for him, so why could a mere female disciple of hers kill him so easily?

The two female disciples standing to the side were also shocked. They knew that Yu Ye was a disciple of the Taiyi Sect, but they did not expect her to be so powerful that she had even killed Wang Tao, who was a ruthless and domineering killer.

Ye Yu withdrew the bone needles and said to the two, "After you go back, don't tell anyone about what happened here except your master. Go back quickly."

One of them looked at Wang Tao's body: "But Wang Tao..."

Ye Yu waved her hand: "I'll handle things here. As long as you don't tell anyone else what happened here, no one will know that I killed Wang Tao. You can just pretend that Wang Tao never went to Jingxin Sect."

Both female disciples were intelligent; they understood what Ye Yu meant and nodded.

Ye Yu said to the two of them, "Let's go quickly, it wouldn't be good if someone came. When you get back, please tell your master that I thank her for taking care of me these past few days, and that I will come to see her again if fate allows, once I have resolved my matters."

Aren't you going back?

Ever since they witnessed Ye Yu easily kill Wang Tao, the two have been extremely respectful to Ye Yu.

Ye Yu nodded: "My injuries have healed, and I still have some things to take care of, so I won't be going back."

They bowed to thank Ye Yu again, but Ye Yu waved her hand, telling them to go first.

After the two men had gone some distance, she searched Wang Tao's body and took all his belongings. Then she threw a fireball talisman, which burned his body to ashes.

He then concealed the traces of the fight around him, flicked his hand into the air, creating a gust of wind that restored the fallen leaves that Wang Tao had smashed with his iron hammer to their original state, before finally leaving the place.
