Firefly Journey

This group was extremely large, consisting of about five or six people, each of whom was hovering in the air on a sword.

Lin Yuanran and the others discovered them and realized something was wrong. Although the Yantian Sect allowed outsiders to hunt, they couldn't just take everything, such as the Cloud Dew Fruit.

Even though Qin Ling's family is large and powerful, the Cloud Dew Fruit, a precious item containing spiritual energy, is not something that can be found everywhere. Yantian Sect cannot allow outsiders to take it away from under their noses.

"I am Su Ning, a disciple guarding the mountain of the Yantian Sect. What sects and factions do you all belong to?"

The group from Yantian Sect landed and began questioning.

Yuan Qingping told the truth. There was nothing to hide, and besides, the Star Moon Alliance was a well-known sect. Revealing it might have a surprising effect.

Su Ning nodded: "So you're fellow disciples from the Star Moon Alliance. I thought you were some kind of thieves. In that case, you should hurry up and leave, lest you get hurt by the ferocious beasts in the mountains."

Is this a way of telling you to leave?

Good heavens, they're clearly trying to monopolize the Cloud Dew Fruit!

Yuan Qingping said, "Senior Brother Su, if I remember correctly, outsiders are allowed to hunt and search for treasure in the Qinling Mountains. Your actions are probably against the rules, aren't they?"

"Not in accordance with the rules?" Su Ning's eyes turned cold. "The rules are set by my Yantian Sect. What we say is the rule. The Qinling Mountains are all the territory of my Yantian Sect. Don't go looking for trouble."

"Seeing that you are from prominent families, we kindly advised you earlier. If you don't leave, then we won't be so polite."

Su Ning drew his longsword, and his disciples behind him followed suit, creating an atmosphere of tension.

As disciples of the Yantian Sect, having cultivated in the Qinling Mountains since childhood, how could they not understand the value of the Cloud Dew Fruit? If it were just ordinary immortal herbs and spiritual plants, they wouldn't make things difficult for others. But this is the Cloud Dew Fruit, and its value cannot be taken lightly. Therefore, they don't care even if it means becoming enemies with Lin Yuanran and the others.

This was, after all, the home ground of the Yantian Sect, and they had the advantage in numbers, so they acted with impunity.

Yuan Qingping bit her lip, her eyes filled with resentment and anger. This was clearly a naturally grown spiritual plant, and whoever encountered it should have it. Yet these newcomers were so domineering. It was truly despicable!

But she understood that she was at a disadvantage in every aspect, and if she didn't exercise restraint, she would end up getting hurt.

Su Ning said coldly, "I'll give you one minute to leave, or I really won't be polite!"

Yuan Qingping could barely contain her anger and wanted to draw her sword, but reason told her she couldn't do that.

As the team leader, she always puts the overall situation first.

The Cloud Dew Fruit can be found again, but if her fellow disciples are injured, suffer permanent disabilities, or fall from their cultivation levels, then her sins will be immense.

The once arrogant Meng Buzheng lowered his head in front of these people, not even daring to steal a glance. This guy was just a paper tiger, easily broken, good for nothing except being a bully within his own ranks.

Yuan Qingping took a deep breath and slowly said, "Let's go..."

"Senior sister, we arrived first, why are we the ones leaving?"

Yuan Qingping was interrupted by a voice when she only said half of the word "leave." It was Lin Yuanran who interrupted her.

He fears nothing more than comparing skill levels; he could kill a whole bunch of these small fry with a single punch.

Upon hearing Lin Yuanran's statement, everyone was taken aback. This guy couldn't see the situation clearly, could he? How dare he!

Although Lin Yuanran's speech plunged the Star Moon Alliance members into dire straits, Yuan Qingping, Hua Zhi, and Zhang Yu were not angry at all; instead, they felt a sense of exhilaration.

Junior Brother Lin was right!

We were here first, so you're the ones who should get out!

Only Meng Buzheng frowned, glaring at Lin Yuanran with some resentment. Oh no, this is pushing someone into a fire pit!

"Fine, fine, fine!" Su Ning shouted coldly.

"It seems that you fellow Daoists are determined to face the consequences rather than accept a polite offer. Very well, then let me show you the strength of my Yantian Sect!"

"Fellow disciples, protect the sect's resources! Charge!"

"Yes!"

The members of the Yantian Sect, united in purpose, drew their swords and charged forward. Faced with the enraged disciples of the Yantian Sect, Zhang Yu and the others also unleashed their skills, preparing to fight back.

Between major sects, unless it's a blood feud, deaths are generally rare. The struggle for the Cloud Dew Fruit Tree is just a minor conflict; even if the two sides fight, they won't kill each other. Knowing this, Meng Buzheng sighed inwardly. Damn it, it's come to this point, there's no way to avoid it. Let's fight it out. Who told me to have such a stupid junior brother!

Just when the group was ready to fight to the death against the Yantian Sect, things were not as hopeless as they had imagined.

Lin Yuanran chuckled softly and his figure shot out. Soon after, the Star Moon Alliance members saw the disciples of the Yantian Sect lying on the ground in tattered clothes, all of them grimacing and crying out in pain.

The leader, Su Ning, looked even more comical. His once handsome long hair had now turned into a bald mountaintop, and even his eyebrows had been burned off!

Lin Yuanran's actions, like his words, shocked everyone!

Before anyone could even see what was happening, the Yantian Sect was utterly routed!

This……

Su Ning lay on the ground, screaming in agony, "You're not a member of the Star Moon Alliance! You must be a member of a cult! Tell me, what kind of sorcery did you use!"

Lin Yuanran squinted and said, "Whether I belong to a cult or not is another matter. What you need to know is that if you don't leave now, you'll be stuck here forever."

Lin Yuan's tone was calm, as if it had a power that went straight to people's hearts. Su Ning wanted to say something more, but when she met Lin Yuan's smiling eyes, she lost the courage to speak.

He struggled to his feet, his eyes filled with malice, and gritted his teeth: "Let's go!"

Several disciples who were less seriously injured rushed over to help him up, and they fled in a disheveled state.

Before leaving, Suning didn't forget to make a strong statement.

"You'd better wait and see!"

The Star Moon Alliance members breathed a sigh of relief. Meng Buzheng, as if mourning the loss of his parents, said in a trembling voice, "Let's run! He's suffered such a great injustice; he must have gone back to get reinforcements. If we don't leave now, it will be too late!"

The group ignored him and instead turned their attention to Lin Yuanran.

It's obvious that Lin Yuanran was the one who repelled the Yantian Sect disciples in that instant. How did he manage to do that?

This junior brother is only at the Qi Refining stage, right? Something's not right!

Lin Yuanran didn't explain to them, but calmly said, "Senior Brother Meng is wrong. We came here for the Cloud Dew Fruit and Hongxuan. We haven't even gotten them yet, how can we leave?"

Meng Buzheng looked on in disbelief. He'd gone mad! He was truly insane! Was he supposed to just wait to die if he didn't run?

Everyone looked at Lin Yuanran, hoping he could give a reason.

Lin Yuanran continued, "I know you are shocked. I didn't want to reveal my hand, but they went too far and I couldn't swallow this insult."

Yuan Qingping asked, "Junior Brother, do you possess some great opportunity?"

Lin Yuanran nodded, took out his "fantasy ledger," and began compiling it on the spot:

"Actually, I fell off a cliff when I was a child, but I survived by sheer luck and accidentally obtained this mysterious book..."

P.S.: I've found that writing without thinking is really fast and enjoyable, so let's keep it this way until the end, it's good.
