Chapter 1144: Arriving at the Eternal Yin Yang Cave

"I am merely an ordinary disciple of the Boundless Yin Yang Sect," Su Yang replied calmly.

"Bullshit! There’s no way a disciple from a place like this could wield Sword Will!" Wang Haoran refused to accept that his Sword Will was inferior to that of a dual cultivator. If his fellow disciples were to hear of this humiliation, he would become the laughingstock of the sect for the rest of his life.

"No way?" Su Yang shook his head with a sigh. "Yet you just experienced it yourself."

"T-That’s not what I meant! I bet you’re not really a disciple here at all! You must be a guest like me, just pretending to be one!"

"If you have any doubts about my identity, you may ask around. Anyway, now that I have proven myself, I’d like to take my leave. We’ve already delayed our business to entertain you long enough."

Su Yang turned around and started flying away after putting away his sword. Lin Xinyi silently followed.

"Wait! We’re not done—"

"No, we’re done." Su Yang suddenly turned and glared at Wang Haoran, a dangerous glint flickering in his eyes.

Wang Haoran froze the moment he sensed Su Yang’s killing intent. His instincts screamed that if he dared utter another word or move even a muscle, Su Yang would kill him on the spot.

Su Yang continued leaving—only to stop again.

When Wang Haoran saw this, he subconsciously closed his eyes, accepting his death.

"Oh, right." Su Yang said out loud. "If you ever get the chance, tell Jiang Wushuang to wash his neck and wait for his retribution."

’Jiang... Wushuang?’ Wang Haoran could not understand why Su Yang uttered the name of the Limitless Sword Sect’s Sect Leader, much less threaten him. However, none of that mattered.

"Did you hear what I said?" Su Yang asked, a faint frown appearing on his face.

Still too frightened to speak, Wang Haoran could only nod his head repeatedly.

Once Su Yang had completely departed and his presence could no longer be felt, Wang Haoran let out a deep sigh and took several long breaths.

"That killing intent... it was absolutely real," he whispered. "Does he bear a grudge against the Limitless Sword Sect?"

His expression twisted with frustration.

"And now he wants me to relay a threat to the Sect Leader? Even as a Core Disciple, meeting him isn’t that simple! Damn it... I’m not setting foot in this place again!"

With that resolve, Wang Haoran turned around and fled in the opposite direction from where Su Yang went, quickly leaving the Boundless Yin Yang Sect.

Meanwhile, Lin Xinyi stared at Su Yang’s back with a look of awe on her face.

’He really defeated a Core Disciple from the Limitless Sword Sect... and so easily, too.’

Since she couldn’t sense Sword Will, she wasn’t able to witness the whole thing. However, even without needing to see it, she could tell that Su Yang had overwhelmed his opponent.

’What is someone so talented with the sword doing in the Boundless Yin Yang Sect?’ she couldn’t help but wonder.

Some time later, they arrived at their destination.

Unsurprisingly, their arrival immediately drew the attention of everyone present.

By the time they arrived, nearly a dozen people were already gathered there. Lin Xinyi didn’t recognize any of them, but the robes they wore told her everything.

They were Sect Elders.

"What are you doing here? Ordinary disciples are prohibited from entering this section of the sect, much less this place!" One of the Sect Elders approached them and said.

"I am Disciple Xiao Yang, and she is my partner, Disciple Lin Xinyi. We’re here to experience the Eternal Yin Yang Caves."

The entire place fell into a deathly silence as every Sect Elder present stared at Su Yang, their faces frozen in speechless disbelief.

"Disciple Xiao Yang? Oh, right. You’re the one at the Dual Cultivation Exchange."

They understood why Su Yang would be there, but an Outer Court disciple like Lin Xinyi participating in the Eternal Yin Yang Caves? A privilege reserved only for the most celebrated Sect Elders in the sect and the top three disciples?

Even as a joke, it wouldn’t be funny.

The Sect Elder standing before them trembled slightly before speaking to Lin Xinyi, "I will pretend I didn’t see you, so turn around and get lost before I—"

"Stop it." A calm voice suddenly interrupted.

The next moment, a beautiful female Sect Elder descended before them and said, "The Sect Leader has approved of their participation in this year’s Eternal Yin Yang Cave."

"Elder Chu! Are you serious?"

"There’s no way! Why would the Sect Leader allow this?! I understand why Xiao Yang is allowed to participate, but this Outer Court Disciple?! Why?!"

"I don’t know the details, but you can ask the Sect Leader when she arrives later."

After directing all their questions to the Sect Leader, the Sect Elders fell silent again.

A few minutes later, another individual descended onto the peak.

"Y-You! What the hell are you doing here?!"

Su Yang turned to look at the newcomer.

It was a familiar face.

"Hey, Vice Sect Leader." Su Yang casually greeted Chen Yi. "Why wouldn’t I be here? I am the one and only reason we won the Dual Cultivation Exchange against the Mystic Delight Pavilion."

"That’s..." Chen Yi began, quickly realizing that Su Yang was right and that he had spoken too hastily.

His gaze then shifted, landing on Lin Xinyi, who stood behind Su Yang like a timid animal trying to hide from attention.

"An Outer Court disciple? Who are you and what are you doing here?" Chen Yi immediately changed his target.

"She’s my partner for the Eternal Yin Yang Cave," Su Yang explained. "I have already received the Sect Leader’s approval, so if you have any complaints, please direct them toward her."

Chen Yi trembled with anger at the sheer lack of respect Su Yang was showing him. However, before he could say anything, another voice suddenly resounded.

"Who has complaints for me?"

Sect Leader Qing appeared before them the next moment.
