Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

Two hours later, Ye Yu emerged from the hidden bushes, guessing that those who were going to leave had already left.

The person who was following her must have been very puzzled, as they managed to lose track of her even though it was only a short distance.

But this is good, it will make them more wary of me.

Ye Yu stopped using invisibility and, while they were still searching around thinking he was from a small sect, quickly left Ziyun Town and ran towards the outside of Qianmen.

Fortunately, the journey was uneventful, and Ye Yu could vaguely see the exit.

But just as Ye Yu was about to run at full speed, she suddenly stopped.

Because her divine sense had already detected Xia Zhong, Xu Ling Shuang, and two subordinates not far away.

These two are actually waiting for me here. Do they already know who I am?

Just as Ye Yu was wondering what was going on, Xu Ling Shuang grabbed Xia Zhong's sleeve and pointed at Ye Yu, saying, "Father! It's this Yu Ye. She forced me to kneel before her. You must teach her a lesson. I want her to kneel before me."

Ye Yu was somewhat surprised to hear Xu Ling Shuang call Xia Zhong "father," since the two did not share the same surname.

She suddenly remembered that Gao Tao had introduced Deyi Valley before, saying that the head of the valley was a son-in-law.

Xia Zhong patted Xu Ling Shuang's arm to calm her down, then took two steps forward with his hands behind his back and said, "You're very good at hiding, and you have some mysterious methods. The people Shuang'er sent to follow you were no match for you. I didn't expect Shuang'er to see you by chance, which saved me a lot of effort."

Ye Yu smiled coldly on the surface, but secretly she was calculating that she needed to finish the battle quickly, otherwise it would be troublesome once Lu Zunrong and the others realized what was happening.

Seeing that Ye Yu didn't speak, Xia Zhong stretched out a hand and said, "Take the things out."

Ye Yu doesn't need to be afraid of him at all now. She is already at the sixth level of Qi Refining. Although she is still a bit behind Xia Zhong, it's not a problem.

"You really want that thing?" Ye Yu took two steps forward expressionlessly.

Xia Zhong stared intently at Ye Yu and waved for Xu Ling Shuang to step back. Xu Ling Shuang pouted and retreated unhappily.

He had fought Ye Yu before and knew that this person was mysterious. He said, "That thing is mine. You stole it when I wasn't paying attention, so you should return it to me."

"I should eat my food," Ye Yu replied.

Xia Zhong's face darkened: "Then you deserve to die!"

After saying that, he threw several daggers at Ye Yu. The coldness of the daggers was so real that they covered more than ten meters in time and arrived in front of Ye Yu as soon as they were thrown.

Ye Yu dodged to the side, simultaneously summoning her flying sword and attacking Xia Zhong. The sword flashed, its shadows flying, instantly weaving into an impenetrable net.

Xia Zhong was taken aback and quickly dodged. He felt that Ye Yu was much stronger than the last time they fought.

He had not underestimated his opponent, and now he was giving it his all. The two exchanged blows, and for a time it was difficult to determine a winner.

Not wanting to waste time, Ye Yu used an ice-sealing technique by forming hand seals. Instantly, a layer of frost rose around Xia Zhong, gradually freezing him in place.

Xia Zhong was shocked. He had seen the Heavenly Sword Sect leader use similar supernatural powers, but this young man in front of him clearly did not have such a high level of cultivation. Why would he use such martial arts?

Just as he was in shock, the ice block had reached his neck. He used all his internal energy to melt the ice block, but Ye Yu did not give him a chance. The flying sword appeared in a flash and arrived at his chest.

Just as it was about to strike Xia Zhong, a flash of cold light suddenly appeared, blocking Ye Yu's flying sword.

In an instant, it spun around and appeared in front of Ye Yu again.

Ye Yu slapped it away and, upon closer inspection, realized that it was the two people who had been with Xia Zhong who had made the move.

One person, wielding a ring blade, quickly approached Ye Yu and shielded Xia Zhong behind him, while another person, holding a short knife, joined Xu Ling Shuang to help Xia Zhong melt the ice.

The weapon of the person standing in front of Ye Yu was somewhat special. It was called a ring blade, a sharp, circular weapon with a very sharp outer edge and a very smooth inner edge, making it easy to grip and use for slashing or throwing.

Those who had fought Ye Yu before used weapons such as daggers or whips, but this kind of weapon was rarely seen.

A careful scan of their cultivation levels revealed that they were at the mid-stage of the Profound Realm.

Ye Yu's eyes turned cold. She hadn't expected Xia Zhong to have found a helper, but a mid-stage Xuan-level cultivator was no match for her now.

She formed a hand seal and unleashed a fiery palm attack on the man.

The fiery palm, carrying a scorching aura, distorted the surrounding air.

Seeing this, the man hurriedly swung his ring blade to defend himself, but the power of the Flaming Palm was too great, directly burning the ring blade in his hand to the point of being too hot. Taking advantage of his inattention, Ye Yu shot out a bone needle, which pierced directly through his forehead.

Seeing that Ye Yu killed the man in just a few moves, Xia Zhong and the other two were terrified, and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads.

The other person and Xia Zhong immediately attacked, while Xia Zhong turned around and said to Xu Ling Shuang, "Shuang'er, run quickly!"

This was the first time Xu Ling Shuang had seen her father so alarmed. She clutched the sachet at her waist tightly and said, "No, I won't leave. I want to help you."

Ye Yu made another hand seal, and the water droplets on the trees and flowers quickly floated up, condensing into arrows that shot towards the three of them.

Xia Zhong and the other man, disregarding their shock, fought back and protected Xu Ling Shuang, taking several arrows with them.

Xu Ling Shuang was truly frightened this time. She was pushed several meters away by Xia Zhong. Seeing her father and the other man resisting with all their might, she ran away with tears in her eyes.

Ye Yu only wanted to end the battle quickly. The man with the short knife couldn't dodge the water arrows and was riddled with them, while Xia Zhong was also covered in wounds.

Ye Yu drew his sword again, this time making it difficult for Xia Zhong to discern the truth from the falsehood. The sword light was like a reflection in the water, and each attack left him bewildered.

He clearly caught the sword shadow, but it vanished the moment the dagger touched him, and at the same time, another wound was inflicted on another part of his body.

Within moments, Xia Zhong had vomited blood and collapsed to the ground.

He never expected that the person who had fled in panic from his hands last time would be able to kill him this time, and with many mysterious methods.

He lay on the ground, muttering, "How is this possible..."

He died before he could finish speaking.

After dealing with Xia Zhong, Ye Yu quickly searched his body, took his cards, put anything she thought was useful into her storage ring, and then burned it to ashes.

Xu Ningshuang ran very fast; Ye Yu couldn't even find her when he used his divine sense.

However, Ye Yu didn't care about all that. Xu Ling Shuang would definitely go back and call for reinforcements. Xia Zhong was already dead, and the feud with De Yi Valley was now officially established.

As soon as she reached the exit, two law enforcement officers approached her. One of them asked Ye Yu, "Has something happened up ahead?"

Ye Yu thought to herself, "We weren't far from the exit just now. If I said nothing happened, these people probably wouldn't believe me."

So she said, "There were two people arguing and fighting over there just now, but they were persuaded to break up and leave."

Hearing Ye Yu say this, the man was a little puzzled. Why would a dispute cause such a big commotion?

Ye Yu shrugged: "The two of them were furious at the time, and they were both experts. They used all their killing moves, and many people could only watch from a distance and dared not get close."

Hearing Ye Yu's explanation, the two of them felt it made sense, so they didn't go any further and instead led her to the exit.
