Chapter 872: Chapter 870: So It Was a Traitor
Just now, if it weren’t for the Sword Spirit constantly egging Wang Zhan on, he naturally wouldn’t have such a strong curiosity about Ice Valley.
The Sword Spirit smiled and said, "My intuition shouldn’t be wrong. This place counts as a place with relatively abundant Spiritual Energy. If you can cultivate in there, I’m sure your strength will greatly improve."
"I know what’s most important to you right now. Surely, you also want to close the gap between yourself and Dong Tianlei?"
The Sword Spirit and Wang Zhan are of one mind.
They both know what the other is thinking.
Wang Zhan did not hide it and immediately said, "Indeed."
"If I can’t reach Dong Tianlei’s level of strength, I’m afraid opening the Star Domain will be a very distant task. I don’t have time to wait that long, after all, Xiang Tian and his people always cause trouble..."
"I need to consider this matter carefully for them."
"Only if the three of us have our own territory can people here regard us with respect."
The Sword Spirit nodded.
After all, even those strong warriors would seek out people who own a Star Domain.
Wang Zhan glanced at the Sword Spirit, then headed towards Ice Valley, saying casually, "I don’t know how to proceed with this path. Do you have any suggestions?"
Upon entering Ice Valley, Wang Zhan immediately felt a bone-chilling cold.
There’s no denying that the temperature here is indeed terrifying.
But fortunately, Wang Zhan practices a fire-based skill, which can make him feel slightly warmer.
Most importantly, Wang Zhan’s cultivation is very strong, so Ice Valley doesn’t pose much of a threat to him.
The Sword Spirit smiled and said, "Things here aren’t as complicated as you think. The two of us should just find a spot to sit down and cultivate as soon as possible, after all, with my strong abilities, you can become more adept at using the Great Void Divine Sword, and the power of the displayed Tianhuo Sword Array will keep enhancing."
Wang Zhan grinned, sat down directly on the ground, and said with a laugh, "In that case, let’s not waste energy; staying here is fine."
The Sword Spirit nodded in agreement.
In the blink of an eye, the two were sitting on the ground.
Meanwhile...
Outside Ice Valley...
Dong Tianlei had already arranged a resting place for Xiang Tian and the others.
As Wang Zhan left, everyone had entered their respective rooms.
Back in the room, Xiang Tian lay directly on the bed, sighed, and shook his head, saying, "I feel like the two of us are idle people. Now even Brother Wang doesn’t want to take us along. If our strength can’t improve, how will we have the face to stay by Brother Wang’s side in the future?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Xue’s expression also turned grim.
Although they had received a legacy and gained significant improvement, they still couldn’t break through the level barrier.
Now, they’ve hit a standstill.
In the previous plane, of course, they didn’t have to worry about these things.
After all, they were considered top-notch strong warriors.
But the place they are in now is different.
Here, even Wang Zhan doesn’t possess absolute superiority.
Thinking of these things, Xiang Tian sighed again, "If it doesn’t work out, we could go out and have some adventures?"
"Before Brother Wang returns, we would come back in advance, this way no one would discover us. What do you think of that idea?"
Luo Xue’s face changed in fright, quickly stood up, sat next to Xiang Tian, and hastily said, "Are you kidding?"
"Brother Wang has repeatedly told us not to leave here without permission, and to listen to Dong Tianlei carefully. If we leave now, we’ll only create trouble for Brother Wang."
"Moreover, people from Skyfire Mountain and Profound Ice Pavilion want to hunt us down. If we appear, we could easily become their target. At least we can ensure our safety staying in Luoxing Mountain."
Ha...
Xiang Tian shrugged and shook his head, saying, "Your thinking is really naive. Do you really think Dong Tianlei would wholeheartedly protect us?"
"What else?" freewebnoveℓ.com
Luo Xue retorted.
"He just wants to give Brother Wang an explanation. Perhaps in his view, the two of us are nothing but complete losers."
Xiang Tian slightly curled his lips, then said again, "Now I’ve come to understand a principle: If one doesn’t have absolute strength, they’ll never be respected no matter where they go. So naturally, one must find every possible means to enhance their abilities; this is what we need to do right now."
Luo Xue didn’t speak.
After all, it’s easy to say these things, but extremely hard to accomplish.
Suddenly, an uproar was heard outside.
Xiang Tian and Luo Xue walked to the window, seeing the crowd arguing downstairs.
There stood Xuan Yu among the crowd, seemingly arguing with them.
"What do you mean?"
"At most, I was just switching sides to favor the light, and I’m a guest of honor to your Lord of the Domain. Do you tolerate insults here?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Look at your own strength. Do you dare to face me one-on-one?"
Xuan Yu eyed the crowd arrogantly with a very dark expression.
Just a few minutes ago, some disciples of Luoxing Mountain somehow got the news and found out about Xuan Yu being a traitor.
Suddenly, everyone started to verbally attack Xuan Yu.
So, how could Xuan Yu possibly tolerate this?
After exchanging glances, the crowd finally began to speak all at once.
"Just because you have some skill, does that make you great? Do you really not know your own limits?"
"Do you think there’s no one in Luoxing Mountain who can fight?"
"Honestly, the most powerful in Luoxing Mountain is not the Domain Master, but the seven elders who have always been in seclusion in Ice Valley."
Xuan Yu was slightly startled, then instinctively asked, "Seven elders?"
A disciple of Luoxing Mountain came forward and explained, "That’s right."
"Although Luoxing Mountain’s internal structure seems simple, there are elders restricting the Domain Master in the background. So, if the elders are dissatisfied with you, even if the Domain Master wants to keep you, it will be difficult."
"At that time, you will surely become stray dogs once again."
Xuan Yu slightly clenched his fist.
This was the first time he had been insulted like this.
The person beside him continued to shout, "You’re just a traitor. If you leave Luoxing Mountain, it won’t take long before you lose your life, so what right do you have to shout at us here?"
"I advise you to hurry back home, stay put, sleep peacefully, and stop being arrogant and bossing us around here."
Xuan Yu’s face looked unpleasant.
Clearly, they were provoking him, and he hadn’t done anything out of line, yet the disciples of Luoxing Mountain were aggressive.
"Can you see? This kid seems to be angry."
A disciple nearby spoke again.
"Even if he’s angry, so what? Does he dare to fight us?"
"If that truly happens, surely the elders won’t let him go, and in the end, this kid will still meet a tragic fate of death."
The crowd all laughed together, feeling superior.
Xuan Yu tightly clenched his fists but still maintained his composure.
Once they fight, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Besides, it’s not easy to explain to Dong Tianlei’s side.
At this moment, a mocking voice suddenly came from behind the crowd, "A bunch of useless losers, daring to shout at Xuan Yu?"
"Since you all want to fight, I’ll play with you."
"I’m curious about just how formidable the people of Luoxing Mountain really are?"
The sudden change left everyone stunned, and they immediately turned to look at Xiang Tian.
In the crowd, Xiang Tian dragged Luo Xue out slowly.
In just a few steps, he was already in front of Xuan Yu.
He glanced at Xuan Yu, then spoke with a smile, "I thought you were a hot-blooded guy, but turns out you’re such a coward?"
"These guys are already stepping on your head, and you can still tolerate it?"
Xuan Yu slightly frowned and remained silent.
He has a bigger picture view than Xiang Tian and Luo Xue.
Luo Xue pulled Xiang Tian’s clothes beside him and whispered, "Alright, let’s not waste time here any longer. Let’s hurry back to the room to prepare for dinner."
"Can you see? This fool only knows how to eat!"
In the crowd, a disciple of Luoxing Mountain immediately shouted.
Soon, a burst of mocking laughter followed.
Xiang Tian’s mouth twitched, and he glanced at the person who spoke, instantly appearing in front of him, raising his fist and punching the person’s chest.
With one punch, he directly knocked the person to the ground.
Xiang Tian looked down on him, showing a sneer at the corner of his mouth, and coldly said, "An insignificant loser dares to mutter in front of me? Do you really think I’m the same as Xuan Yu?"
"Apologize immediately, or I’ll kill you right now."
Upon hearing these words, the disciples of Luoxing Mountain glanced at each other and almost instantly surrounded Xiang Tian.
The tension in the air was palpable.
Meanwhile, Xuan Yu frowned and said, "Did you forget what Brother Wang reminded you before he left?"
"I know."
Xiang Tian lazily stretched, not caring about what Xuan Yu said, and looked at the disciples of Luoxing Mountain, then said disgruntledly, "How about this, we have a martial challenge?"
"Just to the point, as long as no one’s life is at risk, it’s okay."
"So that way, it shouldn’t be too excessive, right?"
This...
The disciples of Luoxing Mountain looked at each other but no one spoke.
Wouldn’t that mean they’d be beaten for nothing?
After all, none of them are Xiang Tian’s match.
"What? Scared?"
