Liu Xiaoyuan knew perfectly well what these cultivators wanted to do: they had recovered their strength and wanted to take revenge on him.
It was one thing for Liu Xiaoyuan not to give them water before, but later he took their spirit stones and made them dig a hole to find a water source themselves.
Therefore, many people are filled with hatred for Liu Xiaoyuan, wishing they could tear him to pieces to vent their anger!
"You were very arrogant just now, weren't you?" one of them asked Liu Xiaoyuan through gritted teeth.
Liu Xiaoyuan nodded and said, "Yeah, I've always been arrogant. So what? Do you have a problem with that?"
"Since you've been so arrogant, don't blame me for being impolite. You're asking for death." After saying that, one of them attacked Liu Xiaoyuan directly.
Liu Xiaoyuan had anticipated that these people would make a move, so when the cultivator swung his spiked club-like weapon at him, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately dodged.
"You're repaying kindness with enmity," Liu Xiaoyuan said casually.
It was as if these people posed no threat to Liu Xiaoyuan at all, and in fact, that was indeed the case. Liu Xiaoyuan could easily kill these guys with just a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan did not want to use cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage yet. He estimated that his own Golden Core stage cultivation was sufficient to deal with these ungrateful fellows.
Upon hearing Liu Xiaoyuan's words, the cultivators immediately showed a look of guilt, because if Liu Xiaoyuan hadn't led them to the water source, they would have really died here.
Now that they've had their fill of water, they're attacking Liu Xiaoyuan; this is indeed repaying kindness with enmity.
However, these people then thought, "I paid with spirit stones, so this isn't repaying kindness with enmity. There's no gratitude involved; it's just a business transaction."
Thinking this way, the cultivators who attacked Liu Xiaoyuan immediately felt much better.
"We have not repaid kindness with enmity. Our relationship with you is merely a transaction, and there is no gratitude involved," one of the cultivators said loudly, speaking with righteous indignation.
Liu Xiaoyuan laughed and said, "What a great deal!"
After laughing, Liu Xiaoyuan loudly questioned, "Then let me ask you, here, if it weren't for me, even if you spent a lot of spirit stones, could you find a water source?"
"If we can't find a water source, forget about losing a few hundred spirit stones; you'll all be stuck here forever!"
Liu Xiaoyuan's words were like a knife piercing the hearts of these people, because what Liu Xiaoyuan said made sense, and what the other people said was just sophistry.
Those cultivators who hadn't made a move fell silent. The reason they remained silent was, just as Liu Xiaoyuan had said, that if Liu Xiaoyuan hadn't helped them find a water source, they would have truly died of thirst here, and having more spirit stones and magic treasures would have been useless.
Furthermore, there were those who couldn't afford such a large amount of spirit stones, and Liu Xiaoyuan ultimately didn't take their magic treasures. These people were still grateful to Liu Xiaoyuan in their hearts.
"Hmph, no matter how sweet your words may be, we're going to teach you a lesson today!" one of the cultivators said angrily.
"Hmph, anyone who dares to teach him a lesson is an enemy of our Jade Cloud Pavilion!" Yang Xin'er stepped forward and stood behind Liu Xiaoyuan.
Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at Yang Xin'er with a smile. Yang Xin'er rolled her eyes at him when she saw that this scoundrel still had the nerve to smile at this time.
"Our Heavenly Sword Sect also stands with Liu Xiaoyuan!" said the leading elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
“We, the Bihai Pavilion, also stand with Liu Xiaoyuan!” the elder of Bihai Pavilion added.
Good heavens, three sects suddenly stood on Liu Xiaoyuan's side, and these cultivators who wanted to teach Liu Xiaoyuan a lesson immediately deflated like wilted eggplants.
With just a few of them, if any one of the elders from these three sects were to make a move, they would have no chance of survival.
One of the cultivators looked at his sect and his elders, hoping that they would stand behind him and offer their full support.
Because what just happened was something that the elders of their sect had tacitly approved, they couldn't let him bear the responsibility alone.
However, the elders of their sect acted as if they hadn't even seen him, standing calmly in place, looking up at him at a 45-degree angle.
Seeing this, even a fool would know that Zhang Lai had no intention of getting involved in this matter.
Now, the cultivator who had come to settle scores with Liu Xiaoyuan regretted it, regretting that he shouldn't have caused trouble for Liu Xiaoyuan!
"Elder Wang, this cultivator seems to be a disciple of your sect, right? How can your sect have such an ungrateful disciple?" At this moment, Yang Xin'er pointed at the troublemaking disciple and asked their elder.
Upon hearing this, Elder Wang immediately angrily waved his sleeve and said, "Our sect has no disciple like this. From this moment on, he is no longer a disciple of my Snow Mountain Sect!"
"Elder, you can't do this!" the disciple cried out, hoping his elder wouldn't do this. If he weren't a disciple of the Snow Mountain Sect, he could forget about advancing any further in his cultivation!
"You've disgraced our Snow Mountain Sect! Get out!" an elder of the Snow Mountain Sect sneered.
The disciple immediately slumped his head, looking as if his wife had run off with someone else.
"Ah! It's all your fault, it's all your fault!" After a while, the cultivator seemed to have gone mad and rushed towards Liu Xiaoyuan, wanting to fight him to the death.
He blamed everything on Liu Xiaoyuan, believing that if it weren't for Liu Xiaoyuan, he wouldn't have been expelled from his sect.
Therefore, all of this was caused by Liu Xiaoyuan; Liu Xiaoyuan is the culprit.
He wanted to kill Liu Xiaoyuan to vent his anger.
Seeing that this guy was going to fight him to the death, Liu Xiaoyuan sneered and thought to himself, "He's choosing the path to hell when there's one in heaven!"
Liu Xiaoyuan immediately summoned his Blood Drinking Sword and slashed directly at the cultivator's head.
This cultivator was also a Golden Core cultivator, so naturally he wouldn't be easily defeated by Liu Xiaoyuan in one move.
Therefore, when Liu Xiaoyuan's first move failed, he was able to avoid the attack of the Blood Drinking Sword.
The cultivator thought he had dodged the Blood Drinking Sword's attack and that Liu Xiaoyuan's next move would take at least a few more seconds.
However, before he could even smile, the Blood Drinking Sword pierced his back.
The moment the Blood Drinking Sword pierced his back, the cultivator was completely dumbfounded, staring wide-eyed at Liu Xiaoyuan, not understanding why Liu Xiaoyuan's attack was so fast.
Similarly, the cultivators who were watching the spectacle exclaimed in shock when they saw the cultivator die tragically under the Blood Drinking Sword, not expecting him to die so quickly!
