Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times
Chapter 57 The Whereabouts of the Spirit Stone
Ye Yu dusted off the dust on her clothes: "Didn't you send two groups of people to follow me, wanting the raw stones I have?"
"You're Ye Yu?"
"Exactly."
Yue Yong narrowed his eyes and looked her up and down, saying, "It seems you really have some skills. The two groups of people I sent out are still missing, yet you dare to come here on your own."
“I hadn’t planned to come, but then I thought, since you’re eyeing the raw stone I have, you’re definitely not going to let this go. To avoid trouble, I had no choice but to come to you in person.”
"Hmph, what a boastful statement."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Yong's expression turned fierce, and he suddenly struck Ye Yu with a palm.
The force of the palm strike sent the dust that had settled on the ground flying everywhere.
Ye Yu stood still, raised her right hand and waved it lightly, as if brushing away dust, and the strong wind that had struck her dissipated just like that.
The air returned to calm.
"you!"
Yue Yong's pupils contracted: "You actually have internal energy? Are you from an ancient martial arts sect? Or an ancient martial arts family?"
"What does it matter?" Ye Yu said indifferently.
Yue Yong's expression suddenly softened: "To be honest, I am an outer disciple of the Ding family. It was wrong of me to have my eyes on your raw stones before; it was all a misunderstanding. The two major sects and the three great families have always had close relations, so I hope you won't hold it against me."
"Oh, so you're from the Ding family."
Yes, may I ask who you are?
Ye Yu smiled slightly: "I am not from the ancient martial arts world."
"Impossible, you have internal energy. Your surname is Ye..."
Yue Yong lowered his head and thought for a moment, but the Ye family did not come to mind. It might be some small family.
His face returned to a detached smile: "My friend, it's all my fault for not investigating properly before. I won't pursue the matter of you killing my people anymore. Let's just let it go."
"Your decision doesn't count."
"What, do you want revenge?"
"There's no need for revenge. If you sincerely want to apologize, how about giving me one or two of those spirit stones you were talking about earlier to play with?"
Yue Yong's expression changed upon hearing Ye Yu's words: "You were eavesdropping on our conversation. How much of it did you hear?"
"Not much, I was outside as soon as you came in."
Upon hearing this, Yue Yong's mind raced. He was currently at the mid-stage of the Yellow Rank, and he would know if anyone got within ten meters of him.
But the woman in front of him had been outside the house the whole time without him noticing.
Then there's only one possibility: his cultivation level is higher than mine.
Thinking of this, he took a half step back to be on guard and whistled loudly.
But after waiting for several dozen seconds without hearing any sound, he stared at Ye Yu with a grim expression and said, "Did you kill everyone in the village?"
Ye Yu shook his head: "It wasn't that everyone in the village was killed, but that everyone in the Yang Gang in the village was killed. Except for you."
Upon hearing Ye Yu's words, Yue Yong knew that she wouldn't let the matter rest easily today.
He said, "My friend, leave some room for maneuver, so that we can meet again in the future. After all, I am a member of the Ding family, and I hope that you will not be too presumptuous for the sake of the Ding family."
"The Ding family? What are the Ding family anyway?"
Hearing Ye Yu's arrogant words, Yue Yong sneered, "The Ding family is one of the three great families of ancient martial arts. Your Shen family can't compare."
Ye Yu didn't want to waste any more words with Yue Yong and asked directly, "So, are you going to give me the spirit stones you mentioned or not?"
Knowing there was no turning back, Yue Yong pushed off with both feet, leaping into the air, one hand clenched into a fist, and charged straight at Ye Yu.
Ye Yu dodged his punch by sidestepping and pressed down on his arm with her right hand.
With a snap, his arm broke.
As Yue Yong's body fell, Ye Yu raised her leg again and kicked him directly in the abdomen.
With a "pfft," Yue Yong spat out a mouthful of blood and fell straight to the ground.
He clutched his stomach, curled up on the ground, and gasped for breath, saying, "You're not just at the late Yellow Rank, could you have already reached the Profound Rank?"
Ye Yu didn't answer him, and instead stepped on his leg again.
Yue Yong screamed and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Spare me, spare me. I have two spirit stones in my room, you can have them both."
"Who asked you to steal my rough stone?"
“I have a contact point in Chenshi Town. That day, my subordinates reported that someone was willing to pay five million to help me steal the raw stones, and they would give me half of the proceeds. Of course I was willing to do such a good thing, so I met with that person.”
Ye Yu kicked him again: "Get to the point."
"That person said he was the manager of Yishun Jewelry Company, and his name seemed to be Yang Xuejiang."
"It's really him."
Upon hearing the news she wanted to know, Ye Yu kicked Yue Yong directly, sending him flying into a tree stump more than ten meters away.
Yue Yong rolled off the tree stump and died instantly.
Ye Yu first went to the building where Yue Yong lived, found two low-grade spirit stones in the cabinet by his bedside, and then put all the gold and silver jewelry in the room into her storage ring.
He took the spirit stone and headed towards the priest's room.
Pushing open the door, I saw an old man with white hair and a haggard face lying on the bed.
The old man turned his neck with difficulty and looked at Ye Yu, asking, "Young lady, how is Yue Yong?"
Ye Yu calmly replied, "He is already dead."
The old man sighed: "Good and evil are rewarded accordingly, fortune and misfortune are intertwined, one is born to bear one's fate, no one can take one's place. This is all his destiny."
After the old man finished speaking, he coughed a few times, as if he could hardly breathe.
Ye Yu stepped forward and pressed several acupoints on him to help him regulate his breathing. Then, she placed one hand on his chest and channeled spiritual energy into his body.
The old man felt a warm current flowing through his body, and after it had circulated for a while, he suddenly felt much lighter.
The old man was very surprised. He thanked her and said, "Thank you, young lady. I feel much better now. Thank you for helping our village get rid of a scourge."
Ye Yu shook her head: "No need to thank me, I already have a grudge against him."
Then she said, "Sir, I would like to ask you something."
She took out the two spirit stones from her bosom.
The old man knew what Ye Yu wanted to ask as soon as he saw the spirit stone.
"You want to know what this stone is?"
Ye Yu shook her head and asked directly, "Where did you get these spirit stones?"
The old man was somewhat surprised: "Do you know the use of this spirit stone?"
Ye Yu nodded: "I know."
The old man looked into Ye Yu's eyes and asked, "Are you from the ancient martial arts sect or family that Yue Yong mentioned?"
"I am not, I am not from the ancient martial arts world."
The room was silent for a few seconds. The old man looked at Ye Yu kindly and said, "I believe you are a good child. Since you want to know the origin of this stone, I will tell you."
Ye Yu helped the old man up from the bed and leaned him against the headboard.
Then they carried a stool over from the table and sat down next to the old man.
The old man lowered his head in thought, as if recalling something, before finally speaking: "These spirit stones were passed down to me by the previous high priest. When they came into my possession, there were six of them. They can be considered the treasure of our village, and only the priest can inherit them. We use them to cure the illnesses of the people in the village."
"It's mysterious; it can cure any disease and prolong life, so we call it the Spirit Stone. However, the elderly in the village are unwilling to use it to extend their lives once they get old, because the Spirit Stone is limited and needs to be left for the young people here."
"When the previous priest passed it to me, I asked where this spirit stone came from. The priest told me that it was found by the first priest. I then asked him where he found it?"
"The priest told me about a place."
"Did you go look for it later?" Ye Yu asked.
The old man shook his head: "I asked that question too. The priest told me that they are only mortals after all, and even if they get to that place, they won't get it."
"How was the first priest appointed?"
"I heard that he found it by chance."
Ye Yu's heart began to race, and she asked, "Where is this place?"
"In Changbai Mountain."
