Lin Yuan was unaware of Bai Ying's opinion of him and was looking at Bai Ying smugly.
The flames in Bai Ying's hands were still burning, but he could no longer see the pair of bone dragon horns.
Bai Ying used the magic array made of those stones to hide the pair of dragon horns, making it impossible for anyone to see what was happening inside.
However, just by looking at Bai Ying's shabby appearance, he could guess that she was going to ruin those bone dragon horns.
Lin Yuan deliberately walked up to the large cauldron, wanting to open it himself, so that Bai Ying would be convinced of her defeat.
Everyone held their breath as they watched his movements, eagerly anticipating what the finished product would look like.
But just before his hand touched the large cauldron, Bai Ying suddenly said, "I advise you not to open it like that. People will die!"
Lin Yuan listened to Bai Ying's words with a look of utter disdain in his eyes.
"You're afraid of losing to us, aren't you?"
Those present also felt that Bai Ying was afraid of losing, and they all made sarcastic remarks.
Seeing that they wouldn't listen to her, Bai Ying had no choice but to say to the people of Lingxiao Sect, "Everyone, please make way so you don't get caught in the crossfire."
Lin Yuan looked at Bai Ying as if she were an idiot. What did it have to do with her?
"I'll show you what a top-grade magic weapon really is!"
As he spoke, he forcefully removed the lid of the cauldron.
The aura of the golden dragon grew even stronger, and Lin Yuan couldn't help but breathe more heavily.
He stared wide-eyed, eager to see what the magical artifact he had crafted would look like.
But at that moment, a giant golden dragon, over twenty meters long, suddenly leaped out of the cauldron.
The cauldron wasn't even that big, yet dragons kept emerging from it.
The dragon was so large that it was like a small mountain.
Standing before such a towering dragon, Lin Yuan felt as insignificant as an ant.
"How...how could this be?"
They were clearly refining weapons, so why did a living golden dragon leap out of it?
The aura emanating from this golden dragon was so powerful it was suffocating. The immense pressure surged forth like a raging tide, making one feel as if they were in the midst of an endless storm.
Lin Yuan felt a shiver run through him, and an indescribable fear quietly welled up from the depths of his heart. That fear, like an ever-spreading vine, tightly bound his mind, making his breathing rapid and heavy.
When dealing with that golden dragon before, all the cultivators in the clan who were at least Nascent Soul stage went together. There were even cultivators at the Divine Transformation stage who took action.
He was merely observing from a distance.
This terrifying being appeared right in front of him. He was so frightened that he couldn't even move.
He tried to lift his feet to leave, but his feet wouldn't obey him.
Tears suddenly streamed down Lin Yuan's face.
The cultivators present were all terrified.
Where had they ever seen a creature of this caliber?
The moment the dragon saw Lin Yuan, a fierce glint flashed in its eyes. Without hesitation, it pounced directly in his direction, opening its blood-red maw to bite down hard.
Under the dragon's oppressive aura, Lin Yuan felt as if his body was bound by an invisible force, unable to move an inch, his heart filled with terror and despair. Just at this critical moment, the weapon refiner rushed over and shoved Lin Yuan aside with all his might. The weapon refiner desperately channeled his magic into the dragon. The magic flashed, but these spells had no effect whatsoever. The dragon continued to bite at the weapon refiner. A scream rang out, and the dragon instantly tore the weapon refiner in two, blood splattering everywhere—a gruesome scene.
"Run!" people shouted, and everyone scattered and ran away.
The Lin clan hasn't given up yet; those were dragon horns they finally obtained! Why have they turned out like this?
Another person cast a spell at the golden dragon, trying to control it.
Everyone else realized what was happening and rushed over.
In an instant, light flashed, and magical artifacts, carrying powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, continuously slammed into the dragon. However, so many artifacts striking the dragon's body were like tickling it, unable to cause any real damage.
Enraged by the group's attack, the dragon roared deafeningly. It opened its maw and spewed forth a ball of scorching flame. The flame moved with incredible speed; several people were instantly engulfed in flames, turning into raging fireballs. The fire was impossible to extinguish, and those engulfed in flames struggled in agony, letting out bloodcurdling screams. The others could only watch helplessly as their companions suffered in the inferno, ultimately burning alive.
The horrific scene left Lin Yuan completely stunned.
With red eyes, he shouted at Ruan Xinrou, "What's going on? Why did the magical artifact I made using your blueprints turn into a dragon?!"
They suffered heavy losses when they fought that golden dragon; several Nascent Soul stage cultivators died before they could subdue it.
Where are they going to find so many Nascent Soul stage cultivators now? Even those who just died were their sect leader's elites!
The weapon refiner was their best weapon refiner. If he dies, who will refine weapons for them in the future?
Ruan Xinrou has really ruined them!
Members of the Lin clan stepped forward, grabbed Ruan Xinrou by the collar, and shouted at her.
"Tell me! What exactly happened?"
But Ruan Xinrou was already terrified; how could she possibly know?
She used Bai Ying's blueprints!
"I...I don't know."
"You don't know? How could you not know! Isn't this the blueprint you drew?"
Only then did Ruan Xinrou look at Bai Ying.
Tears streamed down my face.
"I didn't draw those blueprints; I stole them from Bai Ying. She drew them! This is Bai Ying's problem; you should go find Bai Ying!"
Lin Yuan felt as if his head had exploded.
He suddenly remembered what Bai Ying had said before; she had said long ago that there was a problem with that blueprint.
But at that time he didn't believe it at all.
Even Bai Ying reminded them several times just now.
They thought Bai Ying was afraid of losing.
But to my surprise, what she said was actually true!
He suddenly grabbed Ruan Xinrou's clothes and yelled at her:
"You bastard, I'll kill you!"
