Chapter 796: Coming with Ill Intent

Tianzhu Peak fell into a long silence.

One hundred and thirty jade talismans.

What kind of concept is this?

All the sects that came to participate in this Eastern Profound Sect Competition added up to only about two hundred.

This is equivalent to Ye Lin snatching more than half of the sects.

This outrageous result directly caused the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect's disciples to let out a sharp explosion sound.

"You... why do you have so many jade talismans?" the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect's disciple couldn't help but ask.

"Because I am a 'Bie Lao Zai' (a slang for a hidden expert/camper)."

Ye Lin said seriously.

A full one hundred and thirty jade talismans directly attracted an investigation by the high-level members of the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect.

Of course, these jade talismans must have a clean origin.

The people were killed by the demonic cultivator, the jade talismans were snatched by Ye Xiehong; what does it have to do with Ye Lin?

Ye Lin killed Ye Xiehong and obtained the jade talismans on Ye Xiehong's body; isn't this reasonable and logical?

Anyway, Ye Xiehong was already dead, so no matter how much the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect investigated, it would be a result of "dead men tell no tales."

The result was just as Ye Lin expected; after investigating, the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect could only pinch their noses and admit that the Immortal Cloud Sect's results were valid.

Once this news came out, the whole scene was in an uproar!

With one hundred and thirty jade talismans in hand, what else is there to calculate? Isn't the Immortal Cloud Sect guaranteed first place?

The popularity of the Immortal Cloud Sect in the Eastern Profound Domain is not low, but in terms of hard power, it basically ranks outside the top twenty.

For such a sect to win the championship in the Eastern Profound Sect Competition undoubtedly exceeded everyone's expectations.

Even the team leaders Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.

Their Immortal Cloud Sect won first place?

Their Immortal Cloud Sect has become the number one sect in the Eastern Profound Domain?

Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong didn't feel excited at all, but rather felt a bit creepy.

If the Immortal Cloud Sect had made a great leap and climbed from twenty-fourth to tenth or ninth, they would definitely be extremely excited.

But becoming number one is a bit scary.

You have to eat rice one mouthful at a time; you can't become a fat man in one bite, and you might even be choked to death if you eat too much.

The Immortal Cloud Sect doesn't have the strength and foundation of the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect; standing on the cusp of the storm is likely to be slapped to death by the waves.

Just now, Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong felt several unkind gazes.

This matter is extremely likely to be a disaster rather than a blessing for the Immortal Cloud Sect.

Half an hour later, the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect finished calculating the teams of all the sects.

With the Immortal Cloud Sect's results, they naturally deservedly took first place, ending the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect's consecutive wins.

This made the elders and disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect look at the Immortal Cloud Sect with a playful expression.

Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong's feelings at this moment can only be described in twelve words.

Like sitting on pins and needles, like thorns on the back, like a fishbone in the throat.

The only thing that made them more acceptable was that the reward for first place in this Eastern Profound Sect Competition was extremely generous.

After all, these things were essentially prepared by the Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect for their own disciples, just to show them off to everyone.

The Ten Thousand Swords Dao Sect itself didn't expect that the reward for first place would be handed over to others.

And in the reward for first place, Ye Lin finally saw the Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste he had been thinking about for a long time!

A jade box emitting cold air fell into Situ Qi's hands; the jade box was completely transparent, with a mass of ink-jade-colored gelatinous substance flowing inside, and it also flickered with silver dots, just like a night sky galaxy.

The moment he saw the Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste, even Ye Lin couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

He calculated so much and did so much, wasn't it just for this Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste?

Situ Qi also knew that Ye Lin had been looking for the Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste; Situ Qi naturally wouldn't be stingy with Ye Lin and handed the Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste directly to Ye Lin, and Ye Lin solemnly put it away.

This thing was too important to Ye Lin; even if it were a Law Supreme Treasure or even a Saint Weapon, Ye Lin wouldn't trade it.

After all, this thing is the most important material for repairing the Human Emperor Flag!

After the rewards were distributed, it also meant the end of this Eastern Profound Sect Competition.

The teams of the major sects began to prepare for the return journey.

It's just that the impact of this Eastern Profound Sect Competition on the Eastern Profound Domain is far from over.

In the seemingly calm Eastern Profound Domain, undercurrents began to surge quietly.

Just as the Immortal Cloud Sect was preparing to leave, they were suddenly stopped.

"Fellow Daoists of the Immortal Cloud Sect, please wait a moment."

A silver-haired old woman leaning on a wooden cane walked over slowly, a kind smile on her face.

Gu Tianshou hid not far behind the silver-haired old woman, staring at Ye Lin with resentment.

When Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong saw the visitor, their expressions became a bit solemn.

"So it's Granny Kuanglong (Wild Dragon); this junior Situ Qi pays his respects. I wonder what Granny Kuanglong has come for?"

This kind old woman before them was far from as simple as she looked on the surface; otherwise, she wouldn't deserve the name "Wild Dragon."

Granny Kuanglong was a senior elder of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tianmen, and the demonic beast she controlled was a real Red Flame Flood Dragon!

Don't look at them both as peak masters of the Immortal Cloud Sect; Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong combined might not be a match for Granny Kuanglong alone.

"Hehe, nothing much, just that now that the Eastern Profound Sect Competition has ended, it's time to settle the account for your Immortal Cloud Sect disciple Ye Lin stealing the Heaven-Swallowing Beast of my Ten Thousand Beasts Tianmen, right?"

Granny Kuanglong smiled without smiling, her pair of three-white eyes looking a bit mean.

Jun Chuanxiong and Situ Qi's hearts skipped a beat.

They knew that the Immortal Cloud Sect winning first place in the Eastern Profound Sect Competition would definitely cause trouble, but they didn't expect the trouble to come so quickly.

At this time, the major sects that were originally preparing to leave were also attracted to stop, wanting to see how this matter would develop.

"Ye Lin, is there such a thing?" Situ Qi looked at Ye Lin and asked softly. "You can just tell the truth."

"Peak Master, the Heaven-Swallowing Beast of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tianmen is indeed with me, but it was not stolen by me."

Ye Lin began to explain.

"That Heaven-Swallowing Beast was initially snatched away by Ye Xiehong of the Hehuan Sect. I had an old grudge with that Ye Xiehong, and after I killed him, the Heaven-Swallowing Beast fell into my hands; there is absolutely no talk of stealing! I can make a Dao oath!"

Situ Qi heard this, and his heart secretly let out a sigh of relief.

"Since it's a misunderstanding, then return the Heaven-Swallowing Beast to the senior of the Ten Thousand Beasts Tianmen and return it to its original owner."

After Situ Qi finished speaking, he secretly transmitted his voice to Ye Lin, indicating that he would do his best to find a beast pet no weaker than the Heaven-Swallowing Beast to compensate Ye Lin afterward.

Ye Lin could also see that Granny Kuanglong was coming with ill intent; although the Heaven-Swallowing Beast was extremely precious, his harvest on this trip was already enough, and he had even gotten the Black Jade Patching Heaven Paste, so there was really no need to create a strong enemy for no reason because of a Heaven-Swallowing Beast.

He didn't want to make things difficult for Situ Qi and Jun Chuanxiong, so Ye Lin directly took out the beast-pet bag containing the Heaven-Swallowing Beast.

Situ Qi handed it over with a smile.

"Granny Kuanglong, this Heaven-Swallowing Beast is returned to its original owner today."

Granny Kuanglong didn't take it, and the smile on her face revealed a bit of playfulness.

"You say it wasn't stolen, so it wasn't? With only your one-sided words, it's clearly not very credible; in my old woman's opinion, why don't we just search his soul? The result of soul searching definitely can't be fake." ===== CHAPTER 797 =====
