Chapter 246: Xu Shixiong Xia, Don't Be Impulsive
"Bold!"
"Presumptuous!"
"Seeking death!"
The Foundation Establishment cultivators surrounding the carriage were all furious.
Especially when they discovered that the one who spoke was only a Qi Refining cultivator, they were even more furious.
Several Foundation Establishment cultivators left the team, stepped into the air to approach the flying boat, waved their hands, and several dazzling magic tools broke through the air to kill Xia Daoming.
Shao Shiyu and the others standing behind Xia Daoming secretly smiled bitterly when they saw this.
They never dreamed that Xia Daoming would be so bold, actually daring to come forward and directly scold a False Dan ancestor.
But bitter smiles aside, the fact that Ancestor Jin Ye's subordinates actually dared to take action against Xia Daoming still made their faces change drastically, revealing killing intent.
A true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect—how could they be offended by these people?
"Bold!"
"Presumptuous!"
The three shouted angrily, and also waved their hands, and their magic tools also shot out one after another.
"Green Wood Long-Green Technique, Green Water Profound Ice Art, Silver Glow Geng Metal Technique!"
As soon as the three took action, Jin Ye's face changed.
He had lived a long life and naturally recognized some of the unique cultivation techniques of the Profound Origin Sect.
"All stop!"
Jin Ye shouted to stop them.
Following Jin Ye's shout, the magic tools of both sides, after one strike, were each retracted.
"Are you disciples of the Profound Origin Sect? Did your elder not tell you to respect your elders and seniors?" Jin Ye scolded with a gloomy face, his gaze staring at Shao Shiyu and the others like a knife.
Although it was Xia Daoming who spoke, in Jin Ye's view, he was not worth mentioning, and the ones who truly made the decisions were Shao Shiyu and the others.
Shao Shiyu and the others saw Jin Ye aim his spearhead at the three of them, and couldn't help but feel a burst of helpless bitterness in their hearts.
However, this was facing the outside.
Shao Shiyu and the others understood very well that there was a distinction between superior and inferior.
The three did not answer Jin Ye's words, but looked at Xia Daoming.
"My master did tell me to respect elders and seniors, but he didn't tell me that a False Dan cultivator is an elder and senior. Of course, if a False Dan cultivator is fair and righteous, I am young and would be very happy to respectfully call him a senior, but you are still far from it." Xia Daoming said faintly.
"Who is your master?" Jin Ye finally saw that the four were actually led by Xia Daoming, and his face changed slightly.
"My master's surname is Liang."
"Surname Liang?" Jin Ye was slightly stunned, then his body shook slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Your master is Liang Jingtang."
"That's right." Xia Daoming nodded.
"Even if your master is Elder Liang, you must not be so rude!" Jin Ye said with majesty, a powerful aura erupting from his body, pressing toward Xia Daoming like a mountain.
"When the Lu Clan was still a Qi Refining family, they had already joined my camp. The Lu Clan elder Lu Ye is my senior brother, elder Lu Ziying is my half-disciple, and I have a sworn son in the Lu Clan, whom I treat like my own.
The Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan bullied the weak and wanted to destroy the Lu Clan, and the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan ignored it, letting them attack the Lu Clan. Now, I didn't destroy the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan, just drove them out of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, and didn't abolish the heads of the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan, which is already very restrained.
Now you, as the superior force of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, actually want to shield the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan, and want to continue supporting the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan, letting them continue to preside over the rules and order of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan. So what if I scolded you rudely? Could it be that the people of the Profound Origin Sect's true disciples deserve to be destroyed!"
Speaking to the end, Xia Daoming stood straight, his voice stern.
"True disciple!" Mo Wenbo, who was hiding far away watching, heard this sentence and felt his whole person spinning, his whole body sweating coldly.
A true disciple—if it were back then...
Mo Wenbo didn't dare to think; he was both afraid and regretted it so much that his intestines turned green.
"True disciple!" Shang Rui was completely confused.
She knew Xia Daoming was powerful, but she didn't expect him to be so awesome; he had only left for a few days and had already transformed into a true disciple.
"True disciple! You are a true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect; how is this possible?" Jin Ye's face changed drastically.
"Could it be that someone dares to impersonate a true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect! By the way, your people just attacked me and wanted to put me to death. You tell me, how should this matter be handled?" Xia Daoming smiled coldly.
While speaking, Xia Daoming waved his hand, and the true disciple token turned into a stream of light and flew toward Jin Ye.
Jin Ye caught the token, his face changing uncertainly, riding a tiger and finding it hard to get off.
He is a False Dan ancestor with powerful strength, and he can still show off in front of ordinary disciples of the Profound Origin Sect.
After all, no matter how strong the Profound Origin Sect is, they have to take care of the feelings of other strong people and leave them living space.
Otherwise, once all forces are hostile to the Profound Origin Sect, the Profound Origin Sect also has the risk of overturning.
But changing to a true disciple, then if he, this False Dan ancestor, shows off again, the nature changes to disrespecting the Profound Origin Sect and provoking the Profound Origin Sect.
Seeing the ancestor's face changing uncertainly and remaining silent for a long time, the several Foundation Establishment cultivators who had just taken action were all pale, their foreheads sweating coldly.
Where would they have thought that the guy who shouted and scolded would actually be a true disciple.
If they had known earlier, even if they had a huge amount of guts, they wouldn't have dared to take action!
"Just now they didn't know your identity, so seeing you speak rudely, they took action. Those who don't know are not guilty. I hope you, Fellow Daoist, can be magnanimous and not bother with them." Jin Ye finally darkened his face, and the token slowly flew toward Xia Daoming.
"I am a person who has always been magnanimous, so since Fellow Daoist Jin says those who don't know are not guilty, I will sell Fellow Daoist Jin some face and can not bother with them.
But the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan, in order to seize the Ghost Ice mineral vein of Cold Star Valley, directly raised an army to attack the Lu Clan. You, as the superior force of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, tell me, can this be said to be 'those who don't know are not guilty'?" Xia Daoming said to the end, revealing anger.
"Then what do you intend to do, Fellow Daoist?" Jin Ye asked with a gloomy face.
He is a dignified False Dan ancestor; naturally, he couldn't just retreat as soon as a true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect, who had never been heard of, came forward.
"The Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan move out of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, and all industries belong to the Lu Clan. Since the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan are the spokespeople of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, but sat and watched the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan destroy the Lu Clan, they should be considered derelict in their duties and present a generous gift to apologize to the Lu Clan.
Also, since the Lu Clan is my people, they will sit in the northern area of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan and only follow my orders from now on, having no relationship with your Great Goose Mountain." Xia Daoming said in a deep voice.
The voice echoed between heaven and earth, and the surroundings were silent.
Shao Shiyu and the others standing behind Xia Daoming were cooperating with Xia Daoming on the surface, standing straight with firm and strong gazes, but their hearts were actually very heavy and nervous.
In the cultivation world, in the end, it is still about strength to speak.
Although the status of a true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect is very noble, if there is no corresponding strength to match it, calling out to a False Dan ancestor and directly carving out a piece of territory from under his name is just pulling a banner to act as a tiger skin to scare people.
As long as the False Dan ancestor wants some face and is not scared, and directly turns hostile, even a true disciple can only bring humiliation upon himself.
In the eyes of Shao Shiyu and the others, Xia Daoming was clearly the kind of person whose strength didn't match his true disciple status.
"Don't say the northern area of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan, even if I handed over the entire Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan to you, Fellow Daoist, I, Jin Ye, could afford it. But even if I handed it over, there must be a reason.
It's impossible for you to take out a true disciple token of the Profound Origin Sect, and I would hand over Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan. If I really did that, how would I, Jin Ye, convince the public in the future?" Jin Ye said coldly.
Shao Shiyu and the others felt their hearts sink continuously upon hearing this.
Sure enough, in the end, it still had to be about strength!
Jin Ye's people and many Foundation Establishment cultivators of Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan showed disdain and sneers on their faces.
A mere Qi Refining cultivator, really thinking that relying on being reasonable and holding a token, he could carve out territory from a False Dan ancestor—it was too naive.
Lu Jinglong's heart also sank continuously, just like Shao Shiyu and the others.
Only Shang Rui and Lu Ziying were calm, and even faintly expectant.
No one knew Xia Daoming better than them; even if Jin Ye took action personally, he likely wouldn't be his opponent.
"Oh, I wonder what Fellow Daoist Jin means by this?" Xia Daoming raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Didn't you want the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan to present a generous gift to apologize? How about this, I will let the heads of the Fang Clan and the Tian Clan take action. As long as you can defeat them, don't say the northern area, I will hand over the entire Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan to you. But if you lose, then follow what I said to Fellow Daoist Shang earlier." Jin Ye said coldly.
Shang Rui almost couldn't hold back her cold, old face when she heard this.
Shao Shiyu and the others were anxious when they heard this.
Two late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators—how could Xia Daoming beat them?
However, before the three could speak, Xia Daoming had already waved his hand at the three standing behind him.
The three had to swallow the words that reached their lips, looking at Xia Daoming's back, full of confusion, not knowing what he wanted to do.
"Does Fellow Daoist Jin mean this for real?" Xia Daoming took a deep breath, with a posture of going all out.
Jin Ye's heart skipped a beat.
Looking at this kid's appearance, he seems to have some fighting power!
But how is this possible?
Even if this kid cultivates both martial arts and Dao, with his realm, how could he beat two late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators?
However, this kid being able to become a true disciple might have some tricks, so it's better to be careful.
Thinking this way, Jin Ye coughed twice and said: "I missed something just now. Since this matter was caused by the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan, it also needs to include the Foundation Establishment cultivators of these two families."
"Hey, I say Fellow Daoist Jin, you are a False Dan ancestor, how can you be so shameless?" Xia Daoming said with a look of disdain upon hearing this.
"Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan is full of spiritual energy, hiding many heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and many cultivators are here to open cave dwellings to practice. How important is it? You want to take Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan from my hands; is it easy?" Jin Ye said with a serious face, without any embarrassment of going back on his word.
Xia Daoming gave Jin Ye a thumbs up and praised: "Ginger is still old and spicy, talking in a way that makes sense, winning without losing!"
Jin Ye looked at Xia Daoming, flicked his eight-character mustache, and said faintly: "It's you young people who are bold and have big appetites!"
"Actually, it's not that I am bold and have a big appetite, but that you bullied people first, otherwise I wouldn't have come out to take the lead, and I didn't say I wanted Ten Thousand Snails Xianshan; it was you, Fellow Daoist, who forced me into a bet." Xia Daoming looked at Jin Ye helplessly.
Jin Ye saw this and a proud sneer curled on the corner of his mouth.
"Since you don't have the guts to bet, how about we just forget it?"
"I hate it most when people say I don't have guts! We cultivate immortality, which is going against the heavens; how can we not have guts? I bet! Fellow Daoist Jin, call the people over!" Xia Daoming said with a look of indignation, his voice sonorous and powerful.
"Xu Shixiong Xia, don't be impulsive, don't be impulsive!" Shao Shiyu and the others were anxious to death when they saw this.
"It's okay, three senior sisters, believe me, I have never been an impulsive person." Xia Daoming said with a sincere and comforting look.
"Haha! Good!" Jin Ye saw that Shao Shiyu and the others' appearance was definitely not acting, and his heart was determined, laughing out loud.
Seeing Jin Ye laughing out loud, in a good mood, Shang Rui and Lu Ziying silently turned their heads.
They really couldn't hold it in anymore.
The Fang Clan head and the Tian Clan head soon stepped out into the air, shouting at the crowd watching not far away: "Chen Dingyan, Xie Baojin, why don't you bring your people out to fight!"
Jin Ye came with great momentum, deciding the future of the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan; Chen Dingyan and the others were naturally also in the crowd watching.
"Yes!"
Soon, the six Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Spirit Ba Dao Men and the Xie Clan flew out from the crowd, first paying respects to Jin Ye, and then stood side by side with the Fang Clan head and the Tian Clan head.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet at some point.
Almost everyone held their breath, their eyes looking at Xia Daoming who stepped into the air and landed on the ground, their gazes complex.
Although they all concluded that Xia Daoming would inevitably lose, his courage to face eight Foundation Establishment cultivators alone, two of whom were late-stage Foundation Establishment, still shocked them greatly.
The Fang Clan head and the other eight also flew to the ground, tacitly surrounding Xia Daoming in the middle with a distance of about twenty zhang.
"Magic tools have no eyes; it's not too late for you to give up now, Fellow Daoist." Looking at the Fang Clan head and the other eight surrounding Xia Daoming, Jin Ye hesitated and opened his mouth to persuade.
After all, he is a true disciple of the Profound Origin Sect; if there is any casualty by accident, Jin Ye definitely couldn't bear the anger of the Profound Origin Sect.
"Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist Jin; you can say it's started!" Xia Daoming said with a calm expression.
"Good, then you start!" Jin Ye saw that Xia Daoming didn't accept his kindness, his face darkened, and he waved his hand.
As soon as Jin Ye said this, the magic tools held by the Fang Clan head and the other eight were immediately sacrificed, shooting toward Xia Daoming, who was standing in the center of the encirclement, from all directions.
But just as their magic tools were sacrificed, Xia Daoming's Chasing Wind Boots flashed with light, leaving only a residual image in place.
The next moment, Xia Daoming had already dodged the Fang Clan head's magic tool and appeared two zhang away from the Fang Clan head.
"Not good!" The Fang Clan head felt a strong sense of danger, his face changing drastically.
The other seven also discovered that Xia Daoming had suddenly appeared in front of the Fang Clan head like a ghost, and all their faces changed drastically, turning their magic tools to kill Xia Daoming again.
Just as they turned their magic tools, a giant handprint pressed against the Fang Clan head's chest.
The Fang Clan head's chest immediately sank, blood spurted out, and his whole person flew out more than ten zhang away.
Almost at the same time, a mirror hung above Xia Daoming's head.
A dim, shining light shone over, covering all the magic tools attacking him.
Since stepping into the Blood Sea realm, Xia Daoming's spiritual sense had become more powerful, and the power of the Profound Dim Mirror in his hands had become even more shocking.
