Chapter 199

“I don’t have any dissatisfaction. I am willing to accept my punishment,” Lin Yun smiled indifferently.

How could he not be satisfied? He killed Wang Ning and did not get dispelled, not to mention that Bai Ting had to take the fall for him.

“Li Wuyou!” Bai Ting swept his glance over and repeated his words again without looking at Li Wuyou.

“Hehe, I’m here! I’m here!” So it turns out that he had been collecting the spiritual jades on the ground, which made everyone laugh. Li Wuyou was directly involved in the storm, but he was behaving as if nothing had happened. He was still in the mood to pick up the spiritual jades scattered on the ground. Then again, there were at least sixty to seventy of them on the ground, which was a lot.

“Do you have any dissatisfaction?” Bai Ting barked.

“I’ll follow wherever my big brother goes.” Li Wuyou flung his lips. He didn’t seem bothered by it.

Standing by the side, Xin Yan covered her mouth and smiled. This brat was still quite loyal, and he was more pleasing to her eye the more he looked at her.

“Impudence!” Bai Ting snorted coldly. “Put the prison uniforms on them and escort them to the Herbal Peak immediately! If the two of you disobey any others there, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

The two deacons stepped forth and put on the white uniforms on them, with ‘Sinful’ written on the back of their uniforms. Anyone who wore this uniform would be marked as sinful, and they would only wear them when they were punished.

But the two of them wore the uniforms without feeling ashamed, especially Li Wuyou, who had a smile on his face. He even seems pretty content. He made it seem as though it was more majestic than wearing the imperial robe.

“Come, follow me.” The deacon looked at the duo coldly.

“Wait a minute. I have something to say to Big Sister Xin Yan.” Li Wuyou waved his hand and walked over to Xin Yan. “Big Sister Xin Yan, it’s best not to leave someone like him by your side. Who knows if he might backstab you one day.”

Li Xiaotian and the others had their faces turning white when they heard that. They even started to panic.

“What’s the matter?” Xin Yan asked, puzzled.

“Big Brother Lin and I saved this group of ingrates from a pack of wolves. But when we were pushed to the dead-end, they didn’t even do anything or say anything to help. They were only watching by the side coldly.”

In order to save these fellows, Li Wuyou nearly took the alpha wolf’s claw head-on and lost his life. So he had no intention of letting these ingrates go so easily.

Upon hearing that, Xin Yan’s face turned cold. She looked at Lin Yun, “Is that true?”

Li Xiaotian and the others immediately dropped on their knees and started crying, “Senior Sister, please give us another chance!”

“Get lost! From today onwards, you guys will have nothing to do with me in the future.” Xin Yan was furious that she had chosen the wrong people, giving her seeded candidates to a bunch of ingrates.

When Li Xiaotian and his group heard that, their faces turned pale. With Xin Yan’s words, they wouldn’t have a bright future in the future no matter who they took refuge in.

“Let’s go.”

“Don’t waste time.” The two deacons urged Lin Yun with a cold face.

“I’ll deal with the two of you sooner or later!” Wang Yan snapped the sword in his hand furiously. The sword fragments dug into his hand and blood started dripping down from his hand. He left soon after he left his word and paid no attention to anyone.

“Are you scared?” Lin Yun gently asked while following the two deacons.

Li Wuyou smiled, “I am someone who will become the strongest swordsman in the Great Qin Empire. How will I be afraid of him? If I’m really afraid of him, I wouldn’t have kicked Wang Ning in the first place.”

“Elder, should we greet the Herbal Peak about it?” Xin Yan turned to look at Luo Feng.

“It’s fine. It’s good to let them suffer a little,” Luo Feng smiled.

“What about Lin Yun’s injuries?” Xin Yan sounded her concern.

“I secretly gave him a pellet earlier. He only suffered some internal injuries, and it’s no big deal,” Luo Feng laughed.

“Elder Bai, what about our scores for the Nine Stars Contest?” The rookies all looked at Bai Ting helplessly.

“Let’s get going too. Leave the troublesome matters to that old foggy.” Luo Feng left together with Xin Yan in a good mood.

Bai Ting’s face was ugly. Lin Yun and Li Wuyou left easily, but he was left with a pile of mess. Something like this had never happened in the Sword Firmament Pavilion’s history. If he knew that something like this would happen, he wouldn’t have taken the responsibility over from Luo Feng.

The Sword Firmament Pavilion was situated between the mountain range. The mountain range was enveloped in thick spiritual energy. The buildings were old and ancient, they were the pavilion’s foundation.

Lin Yun and Li Wuyou were escorted to the Herbal Peak. The entire journey took a few hours. Due to the fact that the two deacons were someone from Bai Ting’s side, they did not engage in a conversation.

With a pellet in his mouth, Lin Yun was busy treating his injuries, leaving the talkative Li Wuyou depressed. When Lin Yun finally opened his eyes after a while, Li Wuyou immediately sooke out, “Big Brother, you’ve really kept me in the dark here. Your Martial Soul is actually an Aurora Dragon!”

Lin Yun’s countenance got much better. The pellet that Elder Luo gave him was truly effective. Wang Yan’s sword had injured his internal organs, but the pellet had treated most of his injuries.

When he heard Li Wuyou’s words, Lin Yun had no idea what to say. He wasn’t keeping it from Li Wuyou on purpose, but he really didn’t possess the Aurora Dragon Martial Soul previously. He unlocked it after comprehending the complete sword intent, which snapped one of the chains on the broken sword.

“Speaking of which, do you know anything about the Aurora Dragon Martial Soul?” Lin Yun looked at Li Wuyou. Even he did not recognize his Martial Soul. He could only sense that it was powerful.

“I know a thing or two about it. The Aurora Dragon Martial Soul can be categorized as demonic beasts. But there are strong and weak Martial Souls among them. Wang Yan’s Demon Runic Tiger is one of the stronger ones, but it’s nothing compared to your Aurora Dragon.

“The Aurora Dragon might not be the strongest in the primordial era, but it’s a genuine Primordial Chaotic Beast, bearing an infamous reputation. Legend has it that it could ignite everything in its sight, turning it into a purgatory. But your Martial Soul can only be considered a Primordial Chaotic Soul, not the physical beast itself. This is also the reason why it’s only ten feet in length; it’s way smaller than a Primordial Chaotic Beast should be. But you don’t have to worry about it. It will gradually awaken before reaching the legendary height.” Li Wuyou explained a whole chunk after bearing it for so long.

The two deacons also slowed their pace listening to Li Wuyou’s explanation. When they heard Li Wuyou’s explanation, they were shocked. Evidently, this was the first time they heard about the Primordial Chaotic Beast, the Aurora Dragon. At this moment, they roughly knew why Elder Bai suffered so greatly this time.

“You’re pretty knowledgeable despite how you usually looked.” Lin Yun was rather shocked by Li Wuyou’s knowledge.

Scratching his head, Li Wuyou chuckled, “I just read a lot when I was a child. I’m also trying to tie myself to you beforehand. Big Brother, please don’t forget about me when you soar into the sky in the future.”

“Soar into the sky?” The skinner deacon sneered, “You’ve offended Wang Yan. It’s uncertain if you can even survive through this winter.”

“Hey, watch your tone,” Li Wuyou rebuked.

“Cut the crap. We’ve arrived at the Herbal Peak. The two of you will wait while we handle the handover procedures to the Herbal Hall.” The other deacon snorted and flew into the hall. As for the skinny deacon, he stayed around to watch over Lin Yun and Li Wuyou.

“Hey, beansprout. What does the Herbal Peak do? You still haven’t explained it to us.” Li Wuyou looked at the skinny deacon.

“Beansprout? You brat, who the hell are you calling beansprout?” The skinny deacon replied with rage.

Wearing a serious face, Li Wuyou smiled, “Look at your scrawny build. You’re as skinny as a bamboo pole. If you’re not beansprout, then what are you?”

The skinny deacon’s face was turning green from the anger. But just when he was about to blow his top, the other deacon returned along with an old man from the Herbal Hall. The blue-clothed deacon pointed at the two youths and said, “Deacon Tang, these two are the ones from Elder Bai. They will be here doing odd jobs for the next three months. So go ahead and hand them any tough work.”

The old man from the Herbal Hall narrowed his eyes into slits and nodded, “I understand.”

“Then the two of us will be taking our leave first.” The two deacons didn’t stay long and left. But even after they left, their conversation could still be roughly heard, “Do you think that I’m a beansprout?”

“Who said tha… well, you do look like one.”

“Get lost!”

The voice wasn’t loud, but it was heard by Lin Yun and Li Wuyou, who couldn’t help laughing. Lin Yun turned to look at the deacon and asked, “Senior, what does the Herbal Peak do? And what do I have to do here?”

Deacon Tang was slightly surprised by Lin Yun’s question. He asked, “No one told you about it? Actually, it’s nothing much. You’ll just be tasked with taking care of the herbal field. Let’s go, I’ll bring you over to the ninth herbal field.”

“Senior, it has been a long journey for us. You’re not inviting us into the Herbal Hall?” Li Wuyou looked at the hall far away and chuckled. The Herbal Hall looked simple and unadorned, but they could smell the strong medicinal fragrance from here.

The deacon smiled inwardly, finding these two who were wearing the prisoner clothes interesting. Ignoring Li Wuyou’s question, the deacon walked towards the herbal field.

They arrived at a spacious herbal field. Compared to the field, they seemed insignificant.

“Ding Jiu.” Deacon Tang stopped when he came before a straw shack with ‘Ding Jiu’ written on it..

A group of ferocious-looking youth came out from the straw shack. The leader had a robust figure, with his muscles stretching his clothes taut.

“Niu Bingshun, these two people will be staying in this herbal field. Command them as you wish.” The deacon then went on asking some information about the herbal field before leaving Lin Yun and Li Wuyou behind.

After the deacon left, Niu Bingshun and his group turned to look at Lin Yun and Li Wuyou with a sinister expression. Shortly after, two smelly buckets were thrown before them.

“What is this?” Li Wuyou frowned.

“Isn’t it obvious? Two people left recently, and we don’t have enough men. Scattering fertilizer is such a great job, so the two of you can have it.”
