The four cultivators who had been thrown into the air by Feng Rong finally regained their footing and looked at the two people who had suddenly appeared, and were immediately surprised.
Even the Nascent Soul cultivator who hadn't spoken until now frowned, gave You You a probing look, and then flew forward a little, giving a perfunctory fist salute and saying, "So it's the Heavenly Maiden Venerable. Greetings, Venerable!"
"Who are you?" You You's face darkened, somewhat annoyed. She had only been gone for less than an hour, and someone had already come to cause trouble!
"I am Wang Xu, Elder of Sword Peak of the Ni Guang Sect." The other party was arrogant, speaking politely but without a trace of respect in his eyes. "We were unaware that a celestial maiden has graced this place with her presence. May we ask which celestial maiden Your Excellency is?"
She frowned, but still replied, "Youyou!"
"What?" Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly opened his eyes wide as if he had thought of something, and said in shock, "You are the new celestial maiden, You You, who helped the Yuan family patriarch ascend to heaven a few days ago!"
The tour has advantages.
Wang Xu's expression darkened, and even the four people behind him changed their expressions. Their gazes towards her became less arrogant and more scrutinizing.
At the Heavenly Selection Ceremony at Chengtian Pavilion, a celestial maiden appeared and directly ascended to immortality, a fact that had already spread throughout the entire Immortal Realm. Various sects and factions had been inquiring about the true nature of this celestial maiden, but they had heard that she was extremely mysterious, with no one knowing her origins, and even her relatives had only chosen the Yuan family. Originally, everyone was speculating about where she would establish her sect, but unexpectedly, she appeared in this mortal city.
Wang Xu's expression shifted several times as she scrutinized You You, but she couldn't discern anything special about her beyond her exceptionally beautiful appearance. She seemed to possess no spiritual energy whatsoever, appearing to be just an ordinary person. Judging from her appearance, either the rumors were inaccurate and exaggerated, or she wasn't the legendary celestial maiden at all, and was deliberately deceiving her.
Moreover, top-grade spiritual veins are rare, and whether or not they are obtained today, the Ni Guang Sect is determined to acquire them.
"So it's Venerable You You!" Wang Xu cupped his hands and smiled again, glancing at Feng Rong beside her. He could tell that the other party was also a Nascent Soul cultivator. After a few thoughts, he continued, "Your Excellency, please forgive me. The Ni Guang Sect is located in the southern part of the Immortal Marsh. The Fengtian area has always been within the territory of my Ni Guang Sect. The Heavenly Maiden is noble, and it is naturally a blessing for this place to establish a sect here. My Ni Guang Sect welcomes you. However, it is not good that Your Excellency took away the spiritual veins within the territory of my sect without informing us."
"You're talking nonsense!" Lin Feng couldn't help but retort as soon as he finished speaking. "Fengtian Kingdom doesn't have any immortal sects to worship, and the Ni Guang Sect is something I've never even heard of. They've never recruited any disciples from Fengtian. How could this place suddenly become your territory? Even if it has an owner, the land deed belongs to my Shangyang Lin family. What does it have to do with your Ni Guang Sect?"
"Hmph! What do you, a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, know about sect affairs?" Wang Xu snorted coldly and continued, "The Ni Guang Sect is the closest sect to here, so this place should belong to us, and the spiritual veins naturally belong to our sect. Your Excellency is new to the immortal sect and doesn't understand, so we kindly teach you. Don't leave behind a reputation for stealing the spiritual veins of other sects."
"You..." This group of people clearly wanted to rob us by force! Lin Feng was furious and was about to step forward to reason with them.
Youyou reached out to stop him, glanced at the person in the air who looked completely unfazed, calmed her rising anger, took a deep breath, rolled up her sleeves, and shouted, "Alright! Stop spouting nonsense. You're looking for trouble with so many excuses, do you want to fight? If you want to fight, then come on! No need for a bunch of spineless excuses. Aren't you tired of this endless chatter?"
"You..." Wang Xu stammered, seemingly not expecting the other party to so directly expose his shame. He immediately turned red with anger and glared at her fiercely, saying, "Fine! Since the Heavenly Maiden is so stubborn, then we have no choice but to offend her!"
Having said that, he immediately formed hand seals, and in the next instant, a magic array as tall as a person appeared in a flash, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge. Large swathes of fire burst forth from the array, transforming in a moment into a fire dragon, rushing downwards amidst sparks and lightning. Wang Xu held nothing back, unleashing his full power. So what if she's a celestial maiden? No matter how noble, she's still from another sect.
"My lord!" Ling Qi and the others were startled and instinctively stepped in front of You You.
Feng Rong subconsciously wanted to use hand seals to strengthen the surrounding defensive array and block the opponent's attack.
You You calmly recalled the defensive techniques mentioned in the previous cultivation manuals, tried to form a hand seal, mobilized her energy, and released it. The next moment, a transparent barrier emanated from her position, directly bypassing Feng Rong's protective array, and crashed into the direction where the fire dragon was falling at an even faster speed than the opponent.
A faint clanging sound seemed to echo from all around, as if something had collided. The incredibly powerful fire dragon in the air, which had gathered the full force of a Nascent Soul cultivator's attack, was instantly shattered like broken porcelain, exploding into countless fragments that bloomed in the sky like fireworks, followed by a shower of tiny sparks that sizzled and fell to the ground.
Some even fell onto the main peak crowd, only to be blocked by Feng Rong's protective formation. A small portion bounced towards a white figure on the right, sliding onto its snow-white fluffy coat.
Then……
With a few sizzling sounds, a burnt smell wafted from the scene, and several yellowish-brown holes instantly appeared on the originally pristine white jacket.
The beast's previously cautious licking motion froze instantly, and it even forgot to retract its outstretched tongue.
