This is the scene that Lingyin and the others saw when they arrived. Did she already know their origins and intentions?
"You are Ye Xiruo, today's bride."
"It was originally so, but because of you, it isn't anymore."
"You seem to have known we were coming."
“Indeed, your commotion a few days ago was too big; anyone would have paid attention. If you didn’t come looking for a peerless genius like me, I would find it strange.”
Uh, the mysterious and noble aura I just created has completely vanished. Does anyone actually praise themselves like that?
"You may not believe me, but what I'm saying is the truth. You came to the Taiyan Continent to take on disciples, right? Don't worry, I won't go with you. I already have a master."
"Shut up, the Emperor's will is not to be guessed."
"Heh, what exactly do you want? If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving." Ye Xiruo turned around.
"Stop! Did I tell you to leave?"
"You didn't say I couldn't leave."
"You're sharp-tongued, you'd better behave yourself and not force me to search your soul."
"Heaven has eyes and will not tolerate any evildoer living freely. I have done nothing wrong, what do I have to fear? Being struck by lightning? What a joke." There was murderous intent in the woman's eyes. No matter what answer she gave, this woman would not let her off easily.
I'm at their mercy, like a fish on a chopping board. That's the situation now. My master and the others are trapped, so does that mean she has to face everything alone?
"The strong rule. Don't waste your time. They can't come."
"Fine, what do you want to do?" Since she couldn't keep up the act any longer, Ye Xiruo stopped pretending. Her face instantly turned into an iceberg, and her dark eyes sparkled like stars. This side of Ye Xiruo made Lingyin feel uneasy.
No matter what the mission is today, this woman must die.
Where is Xiu Qiyu?
"In front of the main hall."
"You don't need to play dumb with me. You know better than I do whether that person is real or not."
"As you can see, I am the young master of the Pill King Palace, and I have been in love with Xiu Qiyu for a long time, but I have never been able to win his heart. This wedding banquet was ordered by my master, but he ran away from the wedding seven days ago. In order to save face for me, my master found someone to pretend to be the two of us and get married. In the end, you ruined it. It seems that he and I are not destined to be together."
"Nonsense." A hint of murderous intent flashed in Lingyin's eyes. She teleported in front of Ye Xiruo, her pale, cold fingers resting on Ye Xiruo's throat. With just a little force, she could snap her neck.
Believe it or not.
"Seventh Sister, this person is the only clue. Time is of the essence, so let's start with a soul search."
Soul search? Absolutely not! She has countless secrets that cannot be exposed. Needless to say, the result of a soul search would either turn her into an idiot or kill her. She has no desire to become an idiot or die such a miserable death.
Is this calamity truly insurmountable? A hint of despair flashed across Ye Xiruo's face.
"Hopefully we can find a satisfactory answer."
Lingyin's silver spiritual energy burst forth, transforming into a sharp sword that pierced towards Ye Xiruo's head.
The other three people sealed off the space, making sure no one disturbed Lingyin's soul-searching.
Just as Ye Xiruo was about to be destroyed by this powerful spiritual force, her eyes suddenly turned to Lingyin, who was closest to her. A powerful aura suddenly erupted from her body, and dark clouds immediately filled the sky, with lightning rolling. This power had already made the Heavenly Dao feel threatened.
However, Ye Xiruo ignored it completely. Lingyin's spiritual power was directly annihilated into fragments by a powerful spiritual force just two centimeters away from her face.
"Ah—" Lingyin's hand, which was gripping Ye Xiruo's neck, was also severed by an invisible spiritual force. Blood flowed freely, and the jade hand in mid-air gradually turned into nothingness. Lingyin let out a scream.
"Who exactly are you?" Before her, Lingyin felt as weak as an ant. This woman could easily kill her with a single glance or a single movement. How could such a terrifying person exist in this remote, low-level plane?
"Seventh Sister, are you alright!" The others rushed to Lingyin's side, looking at Ye Xiruo with anxious expressions.
At this moment, Ye Xiruo possessed an unparalleled beauty and noble temperament, like a goddess from the heavens. Her powerful aura had exceeded their expectations, and such a person could not possibly be their target.
Lingyin and the others wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
"I was unaware that you were cultivating here. I apologize for disturbing you. I will apologize to you another day."
"Didn't you want to search my soul?"
"This junior dares not."
“I dare not. Do you know that I know exactly what you are thinking? Do you know how many times you have had thoughts of killing my son?”
Ye Xiruo's figure appeared in front of Lingyin like a ghost, and a long, white, jade-like hand slapped Lingyin hard.
The slap was merciless. While Lingyin was still in mid-air, her beautiful head exploded, and then her body turned into a blood-red firework. Her weakened divine sense tried to escape, but was burned into nothingness by the green lotus that flew from Ye Xiruo's fingertip.
Ye Xiruo's decisive, ruthless, and even brutal killing method made the remaining three immortals' scalps tingle. To kill an immortal in one move, just how strong was this person?
"Please spare my life, senior."
"Those who bully my son shall be killed without mercy."
"I'll fight you to the death." Lingxi was heartbroken as she watched her sister die. Knowing she was no match for Ye Xiruo, she chose to self-destruct.
Countless white ribbons flowed from Ye Xiruo's fingertips, directly enveloping Lingxi. The shockwave from her self-destruction didn't even have time to erupt before turning into nothingness.
The dark clouds in the sky grew thicker and thicker, and the purple clouds churned and surged, as if they could fall at any moment.
"Are you two going to commit suicide, or should I kill you?" Ye Xiruo's tone was very calm, but the killing intent in her eyes could not be ignored.
The remaining two exchanged a glance and rushed towards Ye Xiruo together.
"You're courting death." The white silk transformed into countless sharp swords, piercing through their bodies. Countless white specks of light flew out from their bodies and were absorbed by the white silk.
"Not good." Heaven had already sensed her presence. Ye Xiruo's slender body instantly staggered back a few steps, and white silk suddenly bloomed behind her, like two giant lotus flowers.
"My child, we will meet soon. This is a gift from your mother to you."
