I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 110: Lin Yang's Suspicion

early morning.

Gu's Medical Clinic.

Qin Yiyao changed into a moon-white outfit, tucked her sword into her waistband, and put on the spatial ring that Bai Feier had given her.

She and Bai Feier became close in just a few days.

They actually had a lot in common. Qin Yiyao also admired Bai Feier's resilient and strong character. Although they weren't exactly best friends, it was much better than the wariness and distance they felt when they first met.

Of course, Qin Yiyao's personality remained indifferent, and she was not very willing to talk to people, but she did not mind when Bai Feier approached her and chatted with her for a while.

Today was also the day Qin Yiyao was to go to the Thousand Swords Hunting Grounds. The appointed time had arrived.

The two women went downstairs. In the back hall on the first floor, Gu Heng was refining "Golden Spirit Liquid" in a large pot.

Qin Yiyao will be away for about a week. During these next few days, Gu Heng will have to refine the medicine and then hand it over to the Golden Phoenix Treasure Shop.

"Master, Fei'er and I will set off first."

Qin Yiyao greeted Gu Heng.

"Oh, be careful on the road."

Gu Heng also came out, and then said to Bai Feier, "Miss Feier, I'm counting on you to take care of her this time."

Gu Heng knew that Bai Feier was going to take Qin Yiyao to the Thousand Swords Hunting Ground, and he strongly supported it.

With a cultivator backing you up, you won't be bullied anywhere!

"Don't worry, Young Master Gu, I will take good care of her. If she is even harmed by a single hair, I will offer my head in retribution," Bai Feier said earnestly.

This is Young Master Gu's precious disciple. Now that she has handed him over, she naturally cannot treat him lightly.

"Well, let's go."

Gu Heng chuckled softly.

Hearing that Bai Feier was giving him so much face by issuing such a military order, he felt relieved.

Afterwards, Qin Yiyao and Bai Feier left the city and then flew on their swords towards the Thousand Swords Hunting Grounds.

Shortly after they left, two men dressed in black short-sleeved shirts slowly emerged from behind a sycamore tree, their eyes fixed on the open doors of the Gu Family Medical Clinic with sinister intent.

"Qing Lao Er has already gone with those two women, right?"

"Correct."

"Shall we continue to keep an eye on this place?"

"Keep an eye on things. I'll go back and report to the chairman to see if we need to take action."

After saying that, one of the men in black rushed towards Qingfeng Baoxing.

……

The entrance to the Thousand Swords Hunting Grounds is located deep in a mountain range. There is a stone gate several meters wide, which is tightly closed. Here, the Third Elder Wu Rong and ten disciples of the Nianling Sect, both men and women, are waiting.

After waiting for a long time, Wu Rong was so tired that he was rubbing his toes on the ground.

Because Qin Yiyao arrived a little late.

They couldn't go in before she arrived; this was a condition agreed upon beforehand. Although these ten "elites" selected from thousands of disciples of the Nianling Sect were also getting impatient, they were still very interested in this person who "cut in line."

Last night, the ten of them were specially summoned, and the sect leader personally told them that a young girl would be participating in this "exploration" of the Thousand Swords Hunting Grounds. The identity of this girl was not revealed.

She didn't say what her cultivation level was.

The only thing they said was that these arrogant "elites" who usually looked down on everyone else had to treat her with the utmost courtesy and were absolutely forbidden from speaking or making any offensive remarks! They were even less likely to lay a hand on her!

Furthermore, they were told that the girl's master was a very powerful cultivator, so powerful that he could bring the Nianling Sect to its doom with a mere flick of his wrist.

They were stunned by what they heard.

Everyone had different thoughts, because Sect Master Zhu Ling was not usually like this.

Therefore, these disciples were all very curious and wanted to see what kind of genius would be accepted as a disciple by a great cultivator whom even the sect leader respected.

But after waiting for two hours, no one came.

"Third Elder, will the girl the Sect Master mentioned really come?" A rather handsome young man leaned against a tree and asked with a puzzled look.

Wu Rong glanced at him and said calmly, "He will come."

"You must not be so impatient. Impatience is of no benefit whatsoever to the path of seeking the Dao!"

The speaker was named Lin Yang, and within the Nianling Sect, besides Wu Jie, he was the one who most enjoyed flirting with pretty girls.

But unlike his good-for-nothing grandson, Lin Yang is indeed quite handsome, and he is also an "elite disciple" of the Nianling Sect. He is twenty-three years old, at the second level of the Nascent Soul stage, and his "Surging Flame Sword Technique" is so skillful that it is both beautiful and powerful.

The only drawback is that he has a frivolous personality.

Moreover, he often had conflicts with Wu Jie.

"Third Elder, you're exaggerating," Lin Yang shrugged, unconcerned. "However, if you want us all to wait with her, she'd better be worthy of her background."

"Stop talking nonsense." Wu Rong's eyes suddenly sharpened.

Being stared at like that, Lin Yang wasn't particularly scared, but he obediently kept quiet.

However, Lin Yang harbored deep suspicions about the origins of the girl whom the sect leader had specifically mentioned.

A disciple of a supreme powerhouse?

That powerful figure could destroy the Nianling Sect with just a flick of their finger?

Why would the Nianling Sect get involved with someone of this caliber?

Most people can't see the true strength of the Nianling Sect, but Lin Yang can. His entry into the Nianling Sect is merely a temporary measure.

Originally, when the sect leader of the Desolate Blade Sect came to destroy the Spirit Nian Sect, Lin Yang planned to betray them immediately. He even prepared to use his prepared "Void-Destroying Thunder" to kill the elder guarding the library and then loot everything inside. He intended to use this as a pledge of allegiance to the Desolate Blade Sect or the Kuyun Prefecture.

Unexpectedly, the Nianling Sect launched a desperate counterattack and managed to turn the tide.

Therefore, Lin Yang decided to stay.
