The others might not understand what Yang Kai was talking about, but as Su Yans Master, Ruan Bi Ting immediately did. Su Yan had brought an Origin King Grade longsword from her Star Field to this place. The long sword was named Profound Frost, and one of the techniques she used was indeed called Clear Sky Snowfall.

What Yang Kai had just said confirmed his ident.i.ty. Since he was able to name her sword and her Secret Technique, he must be very close to her. Moreover, Ruan Bi Ting had heard from Su Yan about Yang Kais existence; after all, they were Master and Disciple, so they frequently communicated with each other. And today, she finally met Yang Kai.

Brat, follow me! Upon confirming Yang Kais ident.i.ty, Ruan Bi Ting reached out her hand towards him.

She had just gotten a secret message from a disciple which said that Su Yans husband had come to look for her from Heng Luo Star Field, but he was brought to the reception hall by Elder Chen to drink tea. Once she heard that, she immediately knew that it was a trap, so she rushed over to this place; however, she still couldnt stop the tragedy from happening.

At that moment, she was utterly frustrated. She had warned him to put down the teacup and even tried to s.n.a.t.c.h it from him, but he ignored her and gulped it down right in front of her.

[Su Yan, Su Yan, what kind of husband have you gotten for yourself? Given his stupidity, how has he even survived until this day? Has no one taught him that he should be careful when drinking or eating in the outside world?]

She grabbed Yang Kais wrist with her slender hand and pulled him towards herself. However, instead of making him move, she was forced to stagger forward.

Her pupils contracted as she was flabbergasted. She was a Second-Order Dao Source Realm Master, and although she didnt use all her strength just now, it was impossible that she couldnt even make him move.

Yang Kai flashed a smile at her. His impression of Red Clouds Sect was quite terrible at the moment, so his intention was to find out Su Yans whereabouts before he slaughtered all of them; however, it now seemed that there was someone in this place that actually cared about Su Yan.

[That is more than enough, isnt it? It isnt like there is only evil in this world. There is still warmth that is like a light in the darkness that s.h.i.+nes and illuminates our way.]

He then tapped Ruan Bi Tings hand to motion for her to release him.

With a frown, Ruan Bi Ting questioned, What are you doing?

She used her Divine Sense and spoke to him in his mind, This place is dangerous! Leave with me now!

Seeing that she was truly worried about his well being, Yang Kai felt warm in his heart. They didnt know each other, but she was concerned about him because of Su Yan. Apparently, she was really good to Su Yan.

Elder Ruan, what are you doing? The red-faced Elder Chen sneered at Ruan Bi Ting, not showing any respect to a Master like her who was stronger than he was. Although both of them were Elders in this Sect, she didnt hold any important position, so she was basically powerless regarding internal affairs. If it werent because of the Old Sect Masters will, she wouldnt have even been allowed to remain in this Sect for such a long time and keep her t.i.tle as an Elder.

n.o.body really knew the relations.h.i.+p between Ruan Bi Ting and Red Clouds Sect. It was rumoured that the Old Sect Master owed her a favour, which was why he let her stay in this Sect; however, after the Old Sect Master pa.s.sed away, the current Sect Master took over his role and Ruan Bi Ting became an outsider within their Sect.

Its none of your business! Ruan Bi Ting glowered at Elder Chen.

With a grin, Elder Chen rebuked, I dont agree that its none of my business. The Sect Master has ordered me to serve this Little Brother. Elder Ruan, youre being impolite to our guests, so please leave now.

Ignoring him, Ruan Bi Ting stared at Yang Kai and asked, Are you leaving or not?

I cant leave because this matter isnt over yet. Yang Kai put on a smile and gazed at Elder Chen, You seem quite pleased. What are you laughing at?

Of course Im laughing at something funny. Elder Chen looked disdainfully at him, How does our Red Clouds Tea taste?

The tea is good, but the taste isnt very pure. It was then Yang Kai put down the tea cup and adjusted his position, Youve put something into it, right?

Its too late that youve only found out about it now! Elder Chens expression turned cold as he could stop pretending to be polite. Anyone who was stricken with that poison would go limp very quickly. Even a Third-Order Dao Source Realm Master couldnt detoxify it with ease. Now, Yang Kai was like a fish on a chopping block in his eyes, so he could do whatever he wanted to him.

Elder Chen, you seem quite confident in this poison, Yang Kai lowered his head as his hair blocked his face, which made him look quite gloomy.

You Knew that there was poison in the tea? Ruan Bi Ting suddenly thought of something and exclaimed. At the same time, she cursed at him in her heart and thought that he must be insane.

*Chiliu*

In this intense atmosphere, a sound was suddenly heard. The three of them turned their heads and saw Liu Yan holding another teacup and drinking down its content.

Elder Chen and Ruan Bi Ting were dumbstruck. [Has she also become foolish because shes been with this boy for too long? Both of them are out of their minds!]

Why did you still drink it after they admitted that there was poison in it? Yang Kai stroked her head.

I just wanted to have a taste, Liu Yan replied, Its not delicious though, so Ill give it back to you!

After she opened her mouth, the tea shot towards Elder Chen like an arrow. While the tea was still in mid-air, it turned red suddenly as though it was a fire snake.

The temperature in the hall rose rapidly.

The expression of Elder Chen changed drastically as he was engulfed in a sense of danger. Without even thinking, he summoned an artifact to protect himself. With a clang, the tea arrow crashed into the artifact that looked like a s.h.i.+eld, causing the glow on the artifact to flicker and turn dim, which went to show that it had lost all its spirituality. The tea arrow then continued forward unimpeded, burning a hole right through the artifact.

AH! Elder Chen shrieked and fell on his b.u.t.t. Lowering his head, he realised that there was a dark hole on his shoulder as his blood was streaming out of it. At the same time, he could feel a horrifying Fire Attribute energy entering through the wound. Wherever it went, all his meridians and flesh would burn.

He widened his eyes in disbelief. [What is going on? What is going on? Arent they poisoned? How are they still able to use their strength? Also, who is this little girl? Did she make tea so terrifying!?]

Ruan Bi Ting was dumbfounded as she looked dazedly at Liu Yan. If she hadnt seen it with her eyes, she wouldnt have believed that this little girl was able to harm Elder Chen with just a mouthful of tea. Then, she turned to look at Yang Kai and realised that he had at some point stood up. His countenance appeared healthy, so it was apparent that he wasnt poisoned.

Youre fine? Ruan Bi Ting almost lost her ability to think.

Yang Kai put on a smile, Its just a little bit of trash, how could it possibly harm me?

[T-Trash? This is the most potent poison in our Sect, but its just some rubbish to him? Is he really from Heng Luo Star Field?]

What she wasnt aware of was that Yang Kai had cultivated the Dragon Transformation Secret Art, and after refining the Golden Divine Dragon Source, he had developed a strong Dragon bloodline. Dragon Clan members were famously known for their resistance to all kinds of poisons.

Given Yang Kais physique, he couldnt be said to be immune to all poisons, but the kind of poison that could harm him definitely didnt exist in the Ancestral Domain. He decided to drink the tea not because he was a fool or that he was out of his mind, but because he wasnt worried about it at all.

Elder Ruan, what are you doing? It will be hard for me to explain myself to Su Yan if she sees this, Yang Kai turned to look at Ruan Bi Ting and winked at her.

It was then that Ruan Bi Ting realised that she had been clenching his wrist the whole time. With her face blus.h.i.+ng slightly, she shot him a glare and released him.

She indeed had lost her composure on this day.

*Shua shua shua shua*

Just then, many figures appeared abruptly. They were all the Sects Elders who had been waiting outside. They barged into the hall because they heard Elder Chens scream, and upon a closer look, they were all dumbstruck.

While Yang Kai was fine, Elder Chen was battered.

With a cold expression, Han Zheng Yuan bellowed, Elder Ruan, I think you need to give me an explanation!

Earlier, he saw Ruan Bi Ting breaking into this place, but he hadnt managed to stop her. Now that Elder Chen was injured, he thought that it was she who had made a move.

[Ive been putting up with this woman for far too long! No matter what, Ill have to kick her out of our Sect today!]

Ruan Bi Ting growled, Han Zheng Yuan, dont cross the line!

Han Zheng Yuan replied, Who is crossing the line here? You are our Sects Elder, but youve sided with an outsider! Youve let all of us in Red Clouds Sect, including the Old Sect Master, down.

Settle your own problems later. I just want to know why youre treating me this way when Im just here to look for Su Yan. Yang Kai swept a glance over everyone and then stared fixedly at Han Zheng Yuan.

Elder Chen couldnt have possibly made the decision on his own. He must have received the order from Han Zheng Yuan. A Sect Master was going against Yang Kai for no apparent reason, so his behaviour was really laughable.

Su Yan isnt in Red Clouds Sect. He was lying to you earlier, Ruan Bi Ting explained.

Yang Kai asked, Where is she?

Shes been sent to guard our Fire Cloud Ore Vein. She hasnt returned to the Sect for more than ten years. Thats a mineral lode under Red Clouds Sect, so its one of our core businesses.

Shes guarding a Fire Cloud Ore Vein? Yang Kai arched his brow as he set his mind at ease. Since that was the case, Su Yan wasnt in any danger. However, he soon grasped the crux of the matter and snorted, Why?

Fire Cloud Ore was rich in Fire Attribute Strength, so it was suitable for cultivators who practised Fire Attribute Secret Arts and Secret Techniques to stay at such a mineral lode. Any cultivators with this kind of Secret Art would be more than happy to take on this task.

However, Su Yan cultivated an Ice Attribute Secret Art. Moreover, she had an Ice Crystal Jade Body. If she stayed in such a fiery place for too long, she would be considered lucky if her cultivation didnt regress, so it was practically impossible for her to cultivate.

Yang Kai doubted that these people from Red Clouds Sect didnt know the attribute she was cultivating. Since they were aware of it, they must have done it on purpose by sending her to guard Fire Cloud Ore Vein.

[d.a.m.n it! Ten years isnt a long period of time, but it isnt a short time either. In other words, Su Yan has wasted ten years for nothing!] Yang Kai was enraged.

Why? Ruan Bi Ting sneered as she was utterly disappointed, Theyre trying to make her give in. You might not be aware of it, but his son is very fond of Su Yan. She paused for a moment, Moreover, Su Yan has grown too rapidly, so someone is afraid that her cultivation would surpa.s.s his and threaten his position!

What a load of nonsense! Han Zheng Yuan snorted, Both of you two agreed that shed guard the Fire Cloud Ore Vein, so why are you blaming it all on me now?

Ruan Bi Ting shook her head as she appeared disheartened, Han Zheng Yuan, youre a Sect Master now, but youre still so narrow-minded. Youre no match for the Old Sect Master in this regard.

In fact, this was the reason she had been marginalised in the Sect as well.
