Chapter 181
The woman was completely frozen, looking at Baili Han with utter heartbreak.
How could he not remember her?
Why would Baili Han care whether a woman was sad or not?
He helped Wen Xin up and prepared to leave.
However, seeing his coldness towards her and his tender care for that vixen from who-knows-where, the woman was consumed by jealousy and lost all reason. Pointing at Wen Xin, she resentfully questioned, "Young Master Baili, who is she? Is it because of her that you are so heartless towards me?"
Baili Han was extremely annoyed. "Are you sick? A good dog doesn't block the road, don't you understand?"
The woman: "..."
Wen Xin's lips twitched slightly. She shook his hand to calm him down. In public, he shouldn't ruin his reputation for a woman who didn't seem very bright.
The commotion also startled the Sect Master of Jingfeng Sect and the Chief of the Water Clan in front.
"What's wrong?"
"Grandpa!"
Before Sect Master Jingfeng could finish his question, the woman ran to the Water Clan Chief and cried, pointing at Wen Xin, "She bullied me!"
Wen Xin: "..."
If it weren't for the fact that Master Wen wanted to be elegant, he would have wanted to curse!
However, Baili the young man had no need for elegance. His expression was as cold as a freezing winter. "Chief of the Water Clan, please keep your people in check. Don't let those mentally unstable patients run around causing trouble for others."
Sect Master Jingfeng: "..."
Aquatic Chieftain: "..."
"What did you say? You insolent brat!"
The Shui family members were furious and glared angrily at Baili Han.
Baili Han narrowed his eyes coldly, his icy and sharp sword intent terrifying.
Seeing the young man who was about to draw his sword and kill someone at the slightest provocation, the Sect Master of Jingfeng had a headache.
But he's someone you can't afford to mess with!
Sect Master Jingfeng forced a smile. "Baili, what's going on? Let's talk this out!"
Baili Han said coldly, "Sect Master should ask what the Shui Clan wants to do? Why are the Shui Clan people causing trouble for our disciples and junior mistress as soon as we arrive at Shuiyue Island?"
The woman, Shui Lingling, looked sadly at Baili Han, "How could I possibly cause trouble for Young Master Baili? I just wanted to thank you for saving my life before, and I just wanted to see you!"
No one present could fail to discern the woman's feelings.
Unfortunately, in Baili Han's eyes, she was just sick!
It's disgusting!
"Do you think everyone is blind to your malice towards my junior mistress?"
Shui Lingling's heart was breaking as she watched him target her at every turn because of that vixen.
"Young Master Baili, how could you treat me like this?"
Baili Han asked again, "Who are you?"
Shui Lingling was repeatedly provoked by him, and she cried as she questioned him, full of resentment, "Why are you treating me like this? What is it about me that I don't compare to the women around you?"
Baili Han scoffed contemptuously, his sarcasm unwavering: "Where do you get the confidence to compare yourself to her?"
Water Bell was instantly struck so hard it was on the verge of collapse!
Everyone: "..."
His heart is as hard as iron!
The Shui family members also looked very embarrassed and extremely angry at Baili Han for not giving them face.
Shui Lingling is a direct descendant of the Shui clan, the granddaughter of the clan leader, and the daughter of the young master. She has a noble status. It is his good fortune to have taken a liking to this sword cultivator. How dare he be so ungrateful!
What are the women around him? A sickly Foundation Establishment cultivator, dares to say she's better than their direct descendant's daughter?
Wen Xin glanced at the expressions of the Shui family members, her heart filled with sarcasm, and her dislike for the Shui family grew even stronger.
The aquatic chieftain's expression didn't change, nor did he show any dissatisfaction with Baili Han. It was unclear whether this was due to his superb acting skills or something else.
He ignored Shui Lingling's frivolous sentimentality and instead stared intently at Wen Xin, "You are the child of True Lord Xichen and Yaoguang, aren't you?"
Xichen Zhenjun is the Taoist name of Wen Xin's father, and Yaoguang is her mother's given name.
Wen Xin was slightly taken aback, then bowed politely to the Water Clan Chief, saying, "Junior Wen Xin greets the Water Clan Chief."
He is the chief of the aquatic tribe, not my maternal grandfather!
The title said it all: the Shui family had never acknowledged her, and she had no intention of acknowledging the Shui family.
The aquatic chieftain's eyes flickered, and he sighed, "In the blink of an eye, you've grown so much."
At this moment, Shui Lingling suddenly shouted, "You are Shui Yaoguang's daughter, that sickly girl who is about to die?"
"You're asking for it!"
The Snow Soul Sword cleaved through the void, carrying with it the chilling ice and snow and killing intent, pointing directly at Shui Lingling.
The water clan chief's face turned cold. He raised his hand, and a water curtain blocked the Snow Soul Sword. The water curtain transformed into a water dragon and roared towards Baili Han.
Clearly, Baili Han's repeated provocations against the Shui clan had angered the clan chief, who wanted to teach this arrogant young man a lesson.
However, Baili Han gripped the Snow Soul Sword, its sword energy surging forth, directly freezing the aquatic chieftain's water dragon into an ice pillar and shattering it into ice fragments.
Even though the Water Clan Chief didn't use his full strength in this move, he was still a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, and his spiritual pressure alone was enough to crush a Golden Core cultivator.
But Baili Han not only ignored his spiritual pressure, but also directly broke his water dragon.
Keep in mind that he is only at the late stage of Golden Core cultivation and has not yet formed his Nascent Soul.
However, in just ten years, he progressed from the early stage of the Golden Core realm to the late stage, a truly astonishing speed of cultivation.
I'm afraid it won't be long before he has to undergo the Nascent Soul Tribulation.
Duan Tianyi cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage over a hundred years, which was already considered a genius that amazed the world, while Baili Han's bone age was only twenty-seven.
This is absolutely terrifying!
The aquatic chieftain's eyes darkened for a moment, then quickly returned to normal, and he smiled, "No wonder you have won the favor of the Immortal Venerable Lingxiao, you are indeed a genius."
Baili Han reiterated his previous statement: "Chief of the Water Clan, manage your people well."
The aquatic chieftain's lips twitched slightly. "It was Lingling who was rude."
Baili Han looked at him expressionlessly, as if to say: Was that rudeness? It was utterly ill-mannered!
Aquatic Chieftain: "..."
Baili Han had no idea what it meant to know when to stop, and he showed no respect for the Shui family.
He said coldly, "Chief of the Water Clan, don't you need to apologize?"
Even the aquatic chieftain's best acting skills almost crumbled. He took a deep breath and said, "Lingling, apologize to your cousin."
"Grandpa!"
Shui Lingling disagreed; what had she done wrong?
The young master of the Water Clan, who had been watching silently, pulled his daughter back, adopting a gentle and generous demeanor. "Lingling, I told you long ago that you need to tone down your carefree nature. How could you talk to your cousin like that? Apologize quickly."
Under her mother's gaze, Shui Lingling had no choice but to reluctantly say "I'm sorry" to Wen Xin.
Then she muttered to herself, "Who in the cultivation world doesn't know she's sickly?"
Wen Xin stopped the young man Baili from going berserk again, removed the curtain, and her beautiful face was revealed to everyone.
She was indeed a little weak, but her angelic appearance didn't look sickly at all.
