Chapter 30 Arriving at the Secret Realm
Pei Yan walked forward and patted him on the shoulder gently. "Don't be afraid. Master is a Jindan cultivator and the master of Xialing Peak. He will naturally protect you."
"Even if you made a mistake, you should be taken back to Xialing Peak for punishment. We will never let the people from Tianxuan Sect take you away. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem like we are afraid of them?"
Shen Yubai's mind calmed down a little. In the previous life, his master had said many things like "I will protect your safety even if it means sacrificing my own life". At that time, they were not yet master and disciple. Now that they have the title of master and disciple, of course he would not stand by and watch someone die.
Even though Ye Wange usually treats him coldly, she will protect him at this critical moment.
Lin Qingxuan was getting impatient at this point and said coldly, "I'll say it again, hand him over."
To Shen Yubai's surprise, Ye Wange raised her hand and formed a seal without hesitation, and a ray of spiritual light suddenly bound Shen Yubai tightly.
"This person was only a temporary disciple of our peak. Now that he has made a mistake, I will naturally not protect him."
"I will hand him over now. Fairy Lin, please don't blame me."
Shen Yubai widened his eyes, hardly daring to believe what he saw.
Ye Wange's usually arrogant and indifferent expression suddenly changed in front of Lin Qingxuan, and became full of flattery, as if she was afraid of angering the future leader of Tianxuan Sect.
He stared blankly at Ye Wange, his whole body stiff and cold. The last bit of fantasy he had about Ye Wange in his heart was crushed to pieces at this moment.
Lin Qingxuan originally just wanted to take the person away and be done with it, but when she heard the deliberate flattery in Ye Wange's words, her brows unconsciously frowned.
Killing people and stealing treasures is a common occurrence in the world of cultivation. It is not considered a surprising thing. What Shen Yubai did was a bit unethical, but if he had a strong enough background, the Tianxuan Sect would not dare to do anything.
The Sword-Asking Sect was one of the four great sects, and its foundation was no less than that of the Tianxuan Sect. Unexpectedly, this peak master was so timid and cowardly, handing over his disciples just like that...
Her eyes lightly swept over Ye Wange. Not only did she not feel any affection for her, but she felt annoyed instead.
The other Xia Lingfeng disciples were also stunned.
"Master, are you just going to hand over your disciple like that?"
"There's no explicit rule in the world of cultivation that cultivators can't kill people to steal treasures, right?"
"Even disciples can be pushed out so easily to sell favors..."
Chen Yubai listened to the whispers around him, and his heart felt even colder.
Ye Wange, just hand him over like that!
He couldn't believe that it was Ye Wange who pushed him out personally!
"Master?" His voice trembled, his eyes wide open with disbelief. "You...you just..."
Ye Wange snorted, "You got yourself into trouble, and you expect me to clean up your mess?"
Shen Yubai's pupils shrank slightly, as if he was looking at a stranger.
The scenes of the past few months at Xialing Peak emerged in his mind.
He tried his best to please Ye Wange, just to get a place under her, even if it was just as a registered disciple.
Although she was cold, she did not refuse. Shen Yubai naively thought that this meant she agreed.
She would treat him well as she had said in her previous life, and give him all the best resources she could get.
But what about now?
Just because the person standing opposite her was the future leader of Tianxuan Sect, she didn't even ask the reason and just handed him over.
His heart felt like it was being torn apart. He looked at Ye Wange, not knowing for a moment whether he should be angry or sad.
It turns out that there can be such a huge difference between one master and another.
A bitter taste rose from the depths of his throat. Shen Yubai lowered his head, and his eyes slowly dimmed.
Pei Yan was shocked when he saw Shen Yubai was trapped by magic, and took a step forward without thinking.
"Master!" He said anxiously, "Fairy Lin is the future leader of Tianxuan Sect. If Shen Yubai really falls into her hands, I'm afraid..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Wange's eyes suddenly turned cold.
"Just because I let you stay at Xialing Peak doesn't mean you can question my decision." Her eyes were icy. "If you say another word, I'll expel you from the team as well. You'll have to fend for yourself in this desert!"
Wouldn't she feel heartbroken to give up Shen Yubai?
It won't be long before Shen Yubai becomes her puppet.
But she really didn't dare to offend Lin Qingxuan, so she had to give up with great reluctance.
Fortunately, although Chen Yubai is gone, there are still Pei Yan and Yun Yao...
Shen Yubai was tied to the tail of Lin Qingxuan's spirit lion with a spirit chain. The spirit lion's hooves were as fast as the wind, raising clouds of dust as it ran. Shen Yubai was dragged like a torn sack, and it didn't take long for his body to be covered in blood.
His wrist was bleeding from being squeezed by the spirit chain, gravel and blood mixed together, and the pain made his vision go black.
"Stop... stop..." He begged intermittently, but no one paid any attention.
Lin Qingxuan sat cross-legged on the back of the spirit lion with a cold expression, without any mercy at all.
This scene was seen by all the disciples from the peaks marching behind.
Pei Yan looked at Chen Yubai's figure gradually being swallowed by the dust, and felt very uncomfortable.
He turned and looked at Ye Wange who was not far away.
She was still as dignified and cool as ever, her clothes spotless, like the snow on the mountains, holy and inviolable.
But such a person who was once admired actually treated his disciples in such a way!
"How could Master be so heartless?" Pei Yan muttered to himself.
He forced himself to explain for Ye Wange. Shen Yubai must have done something to disappoint her…it must be…otherwise she wouldn’t be like this…
He convinced himself again and again.
No matter how heartless Ye Wange was, she would never treat him like this.
She would not abandon him.
She would not send him away like she did to Shen Yubai and humiliate him in front of everyone.
After all, in her previous life, Ye Wange treated him better than her other fellow disciples, and this life would be no exception.
What's more, no matter what, Ye Wange's cultivation is higher than Ye Zhao's.
Once they reach the secret realm, they from Xialing Peak will surely gain considerable rewards.
As for Qingyue Peak...
Shen Yubai narrowed his eyes and carefully recalled the scenes of his previous life.
He remembered clearly that there was a very powerful barrier at the entrance to the secret realm. In order to break through this barrier, Ye Zhao and the disciples of Qingyue Peak were injured.
However, all the members of Xia Lingfeng led by Ye Wange were unharmed.
He saw this with his own eyes, so there was no way he was wrong.
…
The group continued to move forward, stepping into the deeper sea of sand.
After walking for several more days, they finally arrived at the entrance to the Tianyan Secret Realm.
This place is located at the end of the desert, with steep cliffs on three sides and only a narrow path leading to the deep valley.
There is no sunlight in the valley all year round. In this desolate place, there stands a deep stone gate. The patterns on it are like stars moving, emitting a faint light.
