Chapter 63 Why is he working so hard?

Ye Linglong pushed the parchment scroll in his hand towards Xie Linyi and gave him a lovely and friendly smile.

"Come on, put your fingerprints on it and we can go our separate ways today."

Xie Linyi quickly pulled his hand back, with the word "rejection" written all over his body.

At that moment, Ye Linglong suddenly stopped smiling, and her childish face showed a frightening coldness. This was the first time Xie Linyi saw Ye Linglong look so cute and ferocious. To be honest, he felt a little scared.

"Xie Linyi, I am young and impatient. I am not a good person if I have a bad heart. If you don't cooperate with me, I will hit you."

Xie Linyi's heart started beating wildly, thump thump thump and was about to jump out of his throat.

He was a man who had seen the world, but this was the first time he had seen someone like Ye Linglong, who had no sense of pressure at all and could put people under great pressure just by relying on his aura.

He subconsciously raised his hand and reached out for Ye Linglong's parchment scroll. Just as his finger was about to press it, Ye Rongyue's scream scared him back.

"What are you talking about? What IOU? Linglong, what are you forcing my senior brother to do?"

Ye Rongyue saw Ye Linglong forcing Xie Linyi, so she hurried towards Xie Linyi and tried to stop him. However, when she was halfway there, a sword appeared in front of her, blocking her way.

She looked up and saw Ji Zizhuo's cold face. She was about to speak when all the people from Qingxuan Sect, including Dongfang Jin, came forward to block her and even drew their swords.

Ye Rongyue had never thought of such a situation. She just wanted to go over and stop Ye Linglong. What did it mean for all of them to use force and danger to stop her?

Ye Linglong is her sister, so what's wrong with her getting close to her sister? Do these people need to be so concerned and nervous?

"What do you mean?"

"My junior sister is doing her thing. No one is allowed to disturb her." Ji Zizhuo said.

"You said I was an idler? Ling Long is my sister, and the person she threatened was my senior brother. You said I was an idler?"

Ye Rongyue was so angry that she was fuming. She had been in the world of immortal cultivation for so long, but no one had ever been so rude to her. Even Si Yuchen, the coldest and most icy person in the world, had never treated her like this.

"When Junior Sister didn't let you through, you were just a idler waiting. If she lets you through, I will let you through."

"Ling Long, don't you care about your brother? You let him treat me like this?"

Ye Linglong turned around and smiled at Ye Rongyue.

"Sister, don't you care about your senior brother? Quickly persuade him to sign the IOU, or I will really beat him, and then it won't be as simple as vomiting blood. At least a few ribs must be broken, a leg must be crippled, and it would be best if one eye is missing, and at least one hand will be destroyed."

Ye Rongyue's eyes widened. She never expected that such cruel words would come out of Ye Linglong's mouth, and he said it with a smile.

Ye Rongyue took a deep breath. She found that she knew nothing about this non-blood-related sister whom she had never paid attention to. It seemed that she was not as useless as she thought.

"Ling Long, what IOU did my senior brother sign? You have to let me know so I can persuade him, right?"

"To put it simply, your Qixing Sect's disciples almost killed my Qingxuan Sect's fellow disciples. I was kind and generous and didn't ask for their lives directly. I only asked for compensation of 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones. If they can't give it, I won't force them. Just write an IOU and I'll collect it slowly in the future."

Ten thousand medium-grade spirit stones!

Ye Rongyue's eyes widened. Such a large number of spirit stones was far from enough even for her!

Ye Linglong was asking for too much. This was no longer a request for compensation, but blackmail. How could he sign this? If she couldn't pay it back, she would use the IOU to demand payment when she met the Seven Star Sect disciples. How could the Seven Star Sect save its reputation?

No, absolutely not!

"Ling Long, you are asking for too much. Don't be greedy and end up with nothing. Listen to my sister's advice. One hundred middle-grade spirit stones, and forget about it. You are not dead anyway."

Ye Linglong smiled slightly.

"Sister, when we go out to reward beggars, we always get more than a hundred middle-grade spirit stones. Qingxuan Sect disciples are rich and precious. I didn't ask you Qixing Sect disciples to pay for your lives out of your consideration. Don't you agree, Brother Xie?"

As soon as Ye Linglong finished speaking, the big tree that Xie Linyi was leaning against suddenly grew a thin and long branch, which cut Xie Linyi's neck, and blood dripped down.

Xie Linyi was so frightened that his whole body tensed up. He had been tortured by Ye Linglong these past few days and was almost mentally broken. He was afraid of her whenever he saw her.

Why don't he just sign it and work harder to complete the task and return it sooner? He doesn't want to go against Ye Linglong. Really, Si Yuchen is not as scary as her.

"Ye Linglong, you are going too far! If you hurt my senior brother again, don't blame me for being rude!"

"Okay, don't be polite, get started!"

Ye Rongyue was stunned. She didn't expect Ye Linglong to be so fearless. Is it because she has a senior brother in the Jindan stage here?

She took a deep breath and turned to look at Ji Zizhuo. He was only in the Jindan stage. She had always been invincible among those of the same level and could fight against those of higher levels. It was possible that she might be unable to beat Ji Zizhuo.

So she drew out the long sword in her hand and pointed it towards Ji Zizhuo.

"Then I would like to ask the senior brother from Qingxuan Sect for advice."

Ji Zizhuo was too lazy to talk to her and just drew his sword and stabbed at her.

The last time Ye Rongyue was in the West Mountain Secret Realm, she knew that Ji Zizhuo was very strong, but in the past few months, she has worked hard to cultivate and go out to gain experience, and has obtained many opportunities and treasures. She is confident that almost no one can surpass her in terms of improving her cultivation and combat effectiveness.

But she never expected that Ji Zizhuo's improvement in the past few months was even greater than hers. He became more ferocious and stronger, and there was a cold light hidden in his sword energy, as if his water attribute had been integrated into the sword energy, forming a whole of its own.

Ye Rongyue was thrown back repeatedly by Ji Zizhuo's sword. Her face turned pale with anger. She had worked hard enough and would spend at least five hours every day practicing. But with Ji Zizhuo's speed of improvement, she might have to practice for ten hours a day, right?

Why on earth is he working so hard?

Qingxuan Sect is such a poor sect, is it possible that there are still elders who urge them to practice day and night? Are they so dedicated?

"Rongyue, are you okay?" Xie Linyi shouted nervously, "Stop hitting me, Ye Linglong, I'll sign! I am solely responsible for this matter, and I will not let Rongyue suffer for me!"

Ye Rongyue was stunned. She didn't expect that Senior Brother would always put her first. He didn't even care about himself and only considered her at all times.

Just as she was feeling moved, Ye Linglong suddenly asked with a happy look on his face, "Senior Brother Xie, is what you said true?"

Xie Lin Yihun's body froze, feeling something was very wrong. If she smiled, it must be bad news!

"Did you hear that? Your eldest senior brother will bear the cost of these 10,000 middle-grade spirit stones. You don't need to spend any money. Why don't you go and thank him?"

When the Seven Star Sect disciples heard this, they all smiled excitedly.

"Brother, you are so kind to us! I am so touched!"

Ye Rongyue, who was still moved a second ago: ???

Xie Linyi, who gave up himself just for Rongyue: ...
