Chapter 1220: Someone is in for Bad Luck

…

At this moment, a cultivator with a cold aura stepped forward from behind Lian Yi, locking onto Qin Yu.

Mm?

Qin Yu looked up. Welcoming this person’s eyes, he frowned inwardly.

This person had restrained his aura before so he didn’t feel anything. Now that he was being locked onto, the man’s aura was released and he exposed his background.

Sly Fate Clan!

Including Soul Hook, Qin Yu had indirectly killed two people from that clan, so he naturally wasn’t a stranger to their unique aura.

Lian Yi lifted a hand. He turned his head and said, “What is it?”

The cold cultivator had no expression, but killing intent surged in his eyes. “I can feel fluctuations of the Sly Fate Clan’s blood incantation from his body.”

Lian Yu frowned. He slapped the man’s shoulder and said, “Today is the longevity feast of the Lord Dragon Saint. As guests, we cannot be disrespectful. How about listening to me today and relinquishing this matter for the time being?”

The Sly Fate Clan cultivator thought for a moment before nodding and withdrawing.

Lian Yi slapped the man’s shoulder again and looked at Qin Yu. “You look unfamiliar. Now that I think about it, you should be the Spring Master’s newly accepted disciple, the peach garden’s ninth seated junior-apprentice brother Qin Yu?”

After being called out by name, he certainly had to give a response. Qin Yu nodded and said, “Yes, I am Qin Yu.”

Lian Yi had an earnest expression. After carefully looking over Qin Yu, he smiled and said, “Junior-apprentice brother Qin is truly handsome. The Spring Master has incredible eyesight!”

These words were clearly inappropriate. After all, even a three year old child knew that knowing someone had a handsome appearance didn’t require good eyesight…it could probably be interpreted as simply complimenting Qin Yu’s good looks.

If he only praised the disciple of a formidable Holy Land for his attractiveness, then these words could be understood as saying that besides a good appearance, he had nothing else going for him.

Moreover, this faintly included the Spring Master in the mess. Qin Yu was annoyed but also confused. What was Lian Yi doing? He openly expressed his frantic desire for Peachy, but at the same time he was being disrespectful to the Spring Master?

Okay, even if he didn’t consider Peachy, why would Lian Yi dare to mock a True Saint who had reached the other shore?

And it didn’t matter how good or strong his background was.

Just look at the celebrating cultivators in the hall. Besides some of the East Sea cultivators, who here weren’t disciples of Saints? There were even several sons of True Saints that had a status similar to Lian Yi.

But these people didn’t dare to show any disrespect to the Dragon Saint. Let alone disrespect, they weren’t even the tiniest bit careless.

They were as respectful as they needed to be!

A True Saint could not be provoked and their dignity could not be violated. This was an iron law of the vast brightness world…in this situation, it seemed that the Western Mountain had a very bad relationship with Peach Blossom Spring.

Looking at Lian Yi, Qin Yu smiled and said, “I must thank senior-apprentice brother for the praise. In truth, I also wanted to say that senior-apprentice brother looks fantastic when you smile. It’s just, there’s something I cannot figure out. With senior-apprentice brother’s mouth, it’s surprising that you’ve managed to stay alive for all this time.”

Being publicly mocked and not counterattacking wasn’t a part of Qin Yu’s character. Moreover, since the Spring Master was now involved, if he just stood by and did nothing, how would he establish himself in the peach garden later? He couldn’t retreat from this no matter what.

This was it, he had finally stepped up!

The eyes of everyone in the hall brightened. They were eagerly anticipating what would happen next.

The Western Mountain’s Lian Yi had never had a good temper, and the person he faced right now was Qin Yu. If he didn’t give a proper response, he would inevitably be ridiculed after today!

In other words, from the moment Qin Yu opened his mouth, there was doomed to be a commotion.

Peachy furrowed her eyebrows. She didn’t want Qin Yu to come into conflict with Lian Yi, but since this involved the Spring Master, she couldn’t express any opposition. She would have to take things one step at a time and hope that Lian Yi didn’t push things too far, otherwise she could only step in for him.

Qin Yu was strong, but he was too young and had risen up not too long ago. He simply didn’t understand the true powerhouses of the world.

Beneath a Saint, looking at the sea, watching the sea, observing the sea…the distances were different and they also represented different levels of power. This meant huge gaps in strength.

The East Sea’s Black Armor was strong. Borrowing an external object was one part of it, and at most he was watching the sea.

And Lian Yi, he had observed the sea for many years already. Her father had said that Lian Yi might not be the strongest of the Western Mountain disciples, but he was the junior most likely to step into the Sea of Bitterness in the next hundred years and become a Half-Saint.

Pa –

Pa –

Lian Yi clapped his hands and smiled. “As expected of a peach garden disciple. You really are brave and full of spirit. I will remember junior-apprentice brother Qin Yu’s words. If I can change them in the future then I will, and if I can’t then I must trouble you to wait longer.”

He turned and said, “I heard that Senior Dragon Saint took out a dragon pearl as the prize for this longevity feast. The event has ended this quickly?”

Dragini suddenly said, “It’s already over. Qin Yu obtained the dragon pearl and the one who lost the last match was Big Sister Peachy!” She didn’t like Lian Yi and she loathed Qin Yu even more. If the two of them could beat each other up, she would be happy about that.

Of course, if they died together, that would be wonderful.

But after thinking about it, how could that bastard Qin Yu be Lian Yi’s match? He would only resist a few moves before being grinded into nothing.

But no matter what, borrowing Lian Yi’s hand to eliminate Qin Yu was also a good result. She naturally couldn’t miss out on this.

Lian Yi’s eyes flashed and his lips curved up in a taunting smile. “Is that so? Junior-apprentice brother Qin Yu must be strong to be able to defeat junior-apprentice sister Peachy.”

When he smiled, his eyes were narrow. The cultivators around him subconsciously furrowed their eyebrows.

Those familiar with Lian Yi knew that when he smiled he might not be happy, and when he frowned he might not be mad. But when he narrowed his eyes, he was definitely in a bad mood. And if Lian Yi was in a bad mood, someone was going to have bad luck.

They were in for a round of extremely bad luck!

Lian Yi turned and bowed towards the crystal wall. “Senior Dragon Saint, today is your longevity feast and it should have been more lively. This junior would like to make a bold proposal, and I hope you can agree.”

From the moment he opened his mouth to speak with Peachy, the crystal wall had remained silent. The giant dragon eyes simply watched as events unfolded before them.

To be honest, although there was no explosion of conflict between the Western Mountain and the East Sea, their relations were cold. This involved battles between the Saints many years ago, and there was no need to describe them here.

In short, that old scholartree had actually sent someone here to celebrate the Dragon Saint’s longevity feast. That in itself was unusual.

Thus, the Dragon Saint intentionally remained silent. The reason he didn’t interfere was that he wanted to see what Lian Yi and these people’s goal was in coming here.

A Sly Fate Clan junior.

The aura of a forbidden land.

A cultivator from Shadow Murder.

….

The Dragon Saint’s eyes swept across the people around Lian Yi. Nothing escaped his sight. It seemed there was a great deal of purpose for this specific lineup of people.

After being asked this question, the Dragon Saint tapped his claws together as if picking his nails. “Tell me about it.”

Lian Yi said, “I am willing to take out a treasure as today’s prize. As long as anyone can defeat me, they can take it away. Consider us as juniors trying to make things lively and celebrate the Lord Dragon Saint’s longevity feast.”

When he said this, everyone in the hall was left puzzled. They thought that this prize was targeted at Qin Yu, but wasn’t it useless if he didn’t challenge Qin Yu directly? After all, wouldn’t this plan only work if Qin Yu volunteered himself?

The Dragon Saint laughed out loud, “Interesting!”

He also couldn’t guess Lian Yi’s intentions, but that didn’t matter. As long as he continued watching, he would find out everything.

He could sense everything beneath the realm of a Saint. This was just a group of juniors, so how much chaos could they cause?

Lian Yi smiled and said, “I thank Lord Dragon Saint for allowing me. Then, I will embarrass myself.” As he finished speaking, his eyes swept across the crowd and he took out a box.

The box was dark with a slightly uneven surface. No matter what angle a person looked at it from, it appeared ordinary.

After opening it, the inside was empty.

Lian Yi said, “Everyone, the prize I’m taking out is this box. This thing will belong to anyone who can defeat me.”

The Sly Fate Clan cultivator and the other people around Lian Yi all revealed shocked looks.

This left the people in the hall startled. They were even more sure that this wooden box wasn’t as simple as it appeared.

But…they really didn’t see anything. Whether they looked with their eyes or sensed with their divine sense, all they saw was an empty and ordinary box.

For a time, the hall fell silent. Everyone secretly wondered just what tricks Lian Yi was trying to play.

Qin Yu also frowned. He knew that Lian Yu had ill intentions, but what was this? This was just a box with nothing he could see inside, and Lian Yi wanted to tempt him into issuing a challenge so he could go up and be beaten?

But at this moment, he keenly sensed the change in Peachy’s expression. She stared at the box in Lian Yi’s hand, her eyebrows furrowing together as a bit of shock rose in the depths of her eyes.

She knew what this box was!

At this moment, looking at Peachy’s expression, Qin Yu suddenly had a dark and foreboding premonition.

The Dragon Saint’s light voice echoed through the hall. “Lian Yi, that may be your thing, but today is my longevity feast. If you said it, you cannot go back on your word. I want to ask you, do you really plan on using that box as today’s prize?”

Lian Yi said, “Lord Dragon Saint, please rest assured that this junior would never do anything unreasonable at your longevity feast today. Since I took it out, I have prepared myself to lose it. Of course, the premise is that someone in this hall today can suppress me.”

The Dragon Saint laughed, “Just based on this alone, no matter what you are plotting, I must commend you…Black Armor, go and challenge him!”

Hu –

Within the hall, everyone let out a deep breath.
