"What's the meaning?"
Jiang Yuan raised his gun, the tip of which was only a few centimeters from Su Yan's pupils.
"How could a lowly human like us possibly ascend to the Holy Spirit Pavilion!" Su Yan's eyes gleamed with arrogance.
"Hmph, the Holy Spirit Pavilion in Nancheng was eradicated by our human race. Do you think we have the right to do so?" Leng Yue stepped forward and angrily pointed at Su Yan. She had an extremely poor impression of the Holy Spirit Pavilion.
"Hmph, all you know how to do is resort to despicable means!" Su Yan struggled to sit up and continued, "When the Holy Spirit revives and the entire battlefield opens, your human race's meager technology will be completely obsolete! Then let's see what you'll use to struggle!"
Jiang Yuan's patience wore thin. With a sudden movement, the God-Slaying Spear plunged into Su Yan's shoulder blade. "Since you won't talk, then kill me! I can find the person myself!"
After saying that, Jiang Yuan was about to crush Su Yan's head.
"Humans!"
Jiang Yuan's next move was stopped by a force, "Soul energy?"
Just now, a surge of soul energy had briefly controlled his actions. He looked in the direction from which the sound came, and the middle-aged Holy Spirit from before was standing in front of the largest pavilion.
“The Holy Spirit’s revival has not yet fully begun. We do not want to start a direct war with the human race right now, otherwise it will only give other races an opportunity to take advantage of us! So I hope you can leave here after you have finished your business!” The middle-aged Holy Spirit walked over to Jiang Yuan.
"Who are you? Why should I listen to you!" Jiang Yuan put down his gun, and Su Yan slid to the ground like a dead dog.
"I am the master of this Holy Spirit Pavilion! As for why you should listen to me, it's because this battlefield has its own rules, and breaking those rules will affect both humans and Holy Spirits!" The middle-aged Holy Spirit spoke calmly and without emotion.
"Alright, my goal is simple: I want to find the human woman who was sent here the day before yesterday!" Jiang Yuan didn't know what the Holy Spirit Clan was up to, but it was best to avoid fighting if possible, since they had the home advantage.
"The human woman you are looking for is not here!" the middle-aged Holy Spirit said coldly.
“Impossible!” Jiang Yuan immediately retorted, “The previous warlord said he sent the person here, and my companion also sensed Ning Yanlan’s presence.”
Ning Yanlan and Leng Yue have signed a master-servant contract, which can be sensed.
"There are indeed no human women here!" the middle-aged holy spirit asserted firmly.
Jiang Yuan frowned, as if he had figured something out. He activated his divine power and directly conjured a human image in the air. "It's her! This is the person I'm looking for!"
The person in question is Ning Yanlan. Although the two have not known each other for long, their images and voices are deeply etched in each other's hearts after their intimate encounter.
The middle-aged Holy Spirit glanced at her but didn't speak immediately. Instead, Warner on the ground spoke up, "She's not one of your human race. What right do you have to come to our Holy Spirit Pavilion to demand her?"
"As expected, she's here!" Jiang Yuan felt much more at ease upon hearing this, and judging from the Holy Spirit's tone, Ning Yanlan was clearly not in great danger.
"Ning Yanlan!"
Jiang Yuan shouted, and since the Holy Spirit Pavilion was only tens of thousands of square meters in size, his shout could be heard in almost every corner of the pavilion. The same would be true if Ning Yanlan were here.
"Stop!" The middle-aged Holy Spirit's eyes flashed like lightning.
But seeing the middle-aged Holy Spirit's attitude, Jiang Yuan became even more certain of Ning Yanlan's position. He used his Wind Step to run directly towards the largest pavilion.
"Activate the formation!" The middle-aged Holy Spirit gave the order, and the giant tree emitted a rich, emerald-green gas, which enveloped the entire Holy Spirit Pavilion in a short while.
The middle-aged Holy Spirit intercepted Jiang Yuan immediately.
"Get out of the way!" Jiang Yuan thrust his spear forward, activating the tenfold stealth attack without hesitation.
"Condense!"
The middle-aged Holy Spirit grasped the void, and the tenfold hidden killing power of the God-Slaying Spear was completely controlled at this moment, even Jiang Yuan's own power was imprisoned.
At the same time, the Sky Eye transmitted a message that left Jiang Yuan completely bewildered.
"A Celestial Spirit Saint, beyond the ninth rank, with a psionic energy limit exceeding nine hundred and ninety-nine."
"Holy shit!" Jiang Yuan was beyond words to describe his feelings; the two words "Holy shit" expressed a myriad of emotions.
This ghostly ninth-tier powerhouse was just a sixth-tier lord before, wasn't he? How did he suddenly become a ninth-tier powerhouse? Don't you know that cheating leads to the death of your whole family? Are you planning to sacrifice your parents by openly cheating like this?
"Young man, don't get so hot-tempered!" The middle-aged Holy Spirit released his grip, allowing Jiang Yuan and the God-Slaying Spear to move. "Where are the people? They're here! But!"
The middle-aged Holy Spirit glanced at Jiang Yuan and slowly said, "We were obtained through an exchange with the human race, at a great cost to us!"
“I can pay that price!” Jiang Yuan said, frowning.
The attribute point cap for the ninth rank is only 999. This level beyond the ninth rank is beyond his control. He can only try to negotiate first, and if that fails, he will fight desperately.
The middle-aged Holy Spirit shook his head and said with a faint smile, "Equivalent exchange in this world is not so simple. What others value is worth much more to me!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yuan felt a surge of anger. He silently activated the God-Slaying Spear and calmly said, "Whatever you want, I'll give you as much as I can!"
“The value of the Spirit Race cannot be measured by external things. Besides, our Star Spirit race has already matched her with the bloodline of the ancient Star Spirit Envoy. She is already half a member of the Star Spirit race. You can’t take her away!” The middle-aged Holy Spirit did not answer Jiang Yuan’s question because, in his eyes, the question was completely impossible to achieve.
"Since that's the case, then I have no choice but to take it by force!" Jiang Yuan gripped the God-Slaying Spear tightly, his eyes filled with determination.
Tianhun Tong quickly flew to Jiang Yuan's side, along with Leng Yue.
"Do you know what level I am at?" the middle-aged Holy Spirit asked slowly.
"Super Ninth Rank!" Jiang Yuan grinned, pointing the God-Slaying Spear at the eyes of the middle-aged Holy Spirit, his expression showing no fear whatsoever.
Everyone dies eventually, Jiang Yuan thought it through very clearly. Every day after the disaster was a day he earned to live, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
"And you still have the courage to point a gun at me!" The middle-aged Holy Spirit revealed a smile that seemed to be both admiration and mockery.
“Even if he were a god, I would still point to his head and demand people back!” Jiang Yuan said earnestly.
"It seems the battlefield choice this time was quite good; it's actually a world where all beings are equal!"
The middle-aged Holy Spirit smiled and waved his hand, "I've said it before, young man, don't be so hot-tempered! This matter can still be discussed!"
"What does this mean?" Jiang Yuan couldn't figure out the Holy Spirit's actions.
"We acquired her at a high price, and if you want to take her away, you will have to pass our special test! Moreover, even if we agree to let you take her away, she will eventually become a member of our Star Spirit race. I hope you can respect her choice!" With a wave of his hand, the injuries of the nine Holy Spirits on the ground were completely healed.
"Your test is simple. I will unlock some of the seals on the nine members of the Guardian Pavilion. If you can defeat them again, I will take you to see Ning Yanlan!"
"If you can't win, I'm sorry, please leave!"
