The truth that Shi Xuan adhered to was: whatever the enemy approves of, we must oppose.
Yan Lingyi is trying to protect that building? Then whatever her purpose, she cannot keep this building!
So during the fight, Yan Lingyi was still thinking to himself that Shi Xuan had used some kind of evil method to improve his cultivation. He looked powerful, but in a fight, he could barely handle him.
Just as Shi Xuan thought this, she suddenly made a move, throwing out a bursting pill that landed right in the main gate she had just destroyed.
Suddenly, a huge roar resounded, and the entire building collapsed, instantly turning into a pile of ruins.
"Shi Xuan!" Yan Lingyi cried out in alarm. He looked extremely anxious. He never expected that at such a time, Shi Xuan would disregard everything and blow up the building first!
"What's the rush?" Shi Xuan said leisurely with a smile. "Could it be that I really guessed right, and you've come looking for some treasure?"
As Shi Xuan spoke, he observed Yan Lingyi's reaction.
His expression didn't seem to indicate that he was treating anything precious; rather, he looked as if he was worried about something.
Shi Xuan continued fighting him for a while, then threw another explosive pill into the ruins, turning the ruins into a large crater.
Yan Lingyi became even more excited. He rushed forward recklessly, as if he were ready to fight to the death.
Clearly, there must be something here that greatly worries him, and their presence here is certainly not accidental; they are here to protect that thing…
Yan Lingyi was anxious, but he had no way to deal with Shi Xuan.
At this moment, Shi Xuan stopped holding back.
The suddenly powerful opponent overwhelmed Yan Lingyi, leaving him with no chance to fight back.
He was already preoccupied with that pile of ruins, and had no resistance to Shi Xuan's sudden increase in strength.
Seeing Shi Xuan's oppressive sword intent rushing straight towards his face, if he couldn't dodge it, he would die here.
Just then, a silver light blocked Shi Xuan's sword energy, giving Yan Lingyi a chance to catch her breath.
"The Great Prophet!" Yan Lingyi and Qian Zheng exclaimed almost simultaneously, their voices filled with worry.
The great prophet they spoke of was a woman with gray hair but whose appearance showed no signs of aging.
At this moment, she appeared to be seriously injured, her face was pale, and her lips were bloodless. She seemed to be struggling to defend against Shi Xuan's attack.
However, Shi Xuan could tell that this great prophet was highly skilled, but he was injured, which was why he looked so weak.
Thus, when Yan Lingyi was worried about something, Xuan made a guess: it was probably this injured Great Prophet.
Sure enough, after the Great Prophet appeared, Yan Lingyi and the other two gathered around him, adopting a protective posture.
Shi Xuan found it amusing; just now, Yan Lingyi was on the verge of death, and it was this great prophet who protected him despite his injuries.
The Great Prophet glanced at Shi Xuan's face, then looked at his disciple Yan Lingyi, and sighed almost imperceptibly.
Yan Lingyi was praised too much, to the point that he became too arrogant and wouldn't listen to other people's opinions.
She had told him long ago to be careful in everything he did when he was out and about, that there were always people better than him, and that he would meet people who were more talented than him. She advised him to befriend others, but he did not listen and ended up hurting himself and ending up like this.
Yan Lingyi looked at the Great Prophet with a look full of guilt. Shi Xuan observed his expression and realized that it wasn't as simple as asking the Great Prophet to help him out this time.
Shi Xuan's first reaction was: Could it be that the great prophet's injuries were caused by Yan Lingyi?
Although the great prophet possessed extremely high cultivation, he was severely injured at this moment.
Shi Xuan's principle was to take advantage of her illness and kill her.
If we don't attack now, when will we?
Thinking of this, Shi Xuan not only did not stop after the appearance of the Great Prophet, but instead intensified his attacks!
The great prophet was able to hold out for a while at first, but as the offensive intensified, he gradually became unable to hold on.
Perhaps because he was still using his spiritual power after being injured, he couldn't hold back any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood after defending himself several times.
"Great Prophet!" Yan Lingyi's eyes widened in horror as he looked at the Great Prophet's swaying figure, his voice breaking with worry.
The Great Prophet was, after all, a high-level cultivator. Although she was severely injured, she was still barely managing to hold her own against Shi Xuan, but she was no longer able to use any offensive skills. She saw no chance of winning this battle.
Shi Xuan didn't know if such a great prophet had foreseen that she would be seriously injured and still have to fight for a disciple today.
"Stop!" Yan Lingyi shouted sternly, "Don't fight yet!"
But would Shi Xuan listen to him? Obviously not.
Shi Xuan not only did not stop, but his offensive became more and more intense, pressing forward until it was impossible for anyone to breathe.
Yan Lingyi had tried to activate the teleportation talisman before, but for some reason, it seemed to have lost its function and did not react at all.
Shi Xuan must have done something! But Yan Lingyi had no clue what exactly he had done.
With things having come to this, Yan Lingyi had no choice but to shout again, "Stop! I know! I know about the [Newcomer] organization!"
Only after he said those words did Shi Xuan finally stop.
She smiled at Yan Lingyi as if nothing had happened and said, "Tell me in detail."
"Ling Yi!" This time, it was the Great Prophet who spoke.
She seemed very reluctant for Yan Lingyi to say anything.
But Yan Lingyi couldn't care less about that anymore.
At this point, not only the three of them, but even the Great Prophet's life was in danger. What difference would it make if he told them about this?
Although Shi Xuan stopped, he still adopted an attacking stance.
Yan Lingyi glanced at the Great Prophet, then at Shi Xuan, and gritted his teeth, saying, "I ate their Compassionate Fruit!"
"He ate the Compassionate Breath Fruit?!" Shi Xuan raised an eyebrow. He had just said that he had excellent aptitude and had reached the Nascent Soul stage in just a few years, but he never expected that it was because he ate the Compassionate Breath Fruit!
The look in Shi Xuan's eyes as she looked at Yan Lingyi told him that she was waiting for what was to come.
When the Great Prophet saw that Yan Lingyi had gone straight to the point in his first sentence, he sighed softly and said, "Fine, let him be."
Yan Lingyi paused, seemingly thinking about how to describe it.
Qian Zheng and Tan Longyun were also injured in the previous battle. At this moment, the four of them stood together, while Shi Xuan, Lu Shenzhi, and Lu Wenxing stood in three directions, surrounding them.
After pausing for a few moments, Yan Lingyi slowly said, "On the day the Nine-Story Pagoda opened, it wasn't that I didn't want to go, but that I couldn't. Before that, after my battle with Lu Shenzhi, I was unwilling to accept defeat, so I unconsciously flew on my sword outside. As night approached, I landed on a floating island."
