Chapter 240: Chapter 126: Scare Away with One Glance
“`
The cultivators in the restaurant were very dissatisfied, but intimidated by the influence of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, they could only suppress their anger.
The proprietor of the restaurant was on the verge of tears, his expression pale: “My restaurant!”
Only Jian Ruyu was unafraid of the disciples of Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, frowning in displeasure, “Aren’t you from the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land being too overbearing? Aren’t they telling the truth?”
Seeing that someone was singing a different tune from the disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land, the expressions of many changed, and they turned their heads to look over.
Upon seeing Jian Ruyu, many were astonished.
“It’s her, Jian Ruyu from Divine Sword Sect! She is also a top genius in her sect.”
“I know her, she’s high in the Young Talents Ranking! I didn’t expect her to be here.”
“Hiss… Look at the man next to Jian Ruyu!” Someone spotted Lu Yi, first puzzled, then their eyes widened in shock.
“What about that man?” Someone asked, confused.
“He’s that Immortal Seed from White Cloud Sect! I didn’t expect to see him here.”
Hearing this, the numerous cultivators were shocked and began sizing up Lu Yi.
When the disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land saw Jian Ruyu speak up, they frowned, about to say something. But upon hearing the cultivators’ remarks, their expressions changed, staring intently at Lu Yi.
The leader of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land disciples said coldly, looking at Lu Yi, “So it’s you!”
Lu Yi smiled, “It is I. Where is your Heavenly Dragon Saint Son now? I haven’t seen him for quite a while and miss him dearly.”
Lu Yi spoke the truth—after all, defeating the Heavenly Dragon Saint Son could yield True Dragon Essence Blood.
The True Dragon Essence Blood was very useful for Lu Yi, and he indeed wished to meet the Heavenly Dragon Saint Son again, hoping to obtain more Heavenly Dragon Essence Blood.
Upon hearing Lu Yi’s words, the expressions of several Heavenly Dragon Holy Land disciples darkened.
The leading Nascent Soul disciple bellowed angrily, “How dare you! You wish to challenge the Saint Son again? Since that’s the case, let me test your strength first.”
He made a move directly, his hand lashing out at Lu Yi.
In his hand flashed yellow lights; dragon might condensed, fearsome aura circling, turning into a dragon claw that reached out for Lu Yi.
The terrible pressure made the air around tremble, causing many weaker cultivators to feel a heavy pressure in their chests.
However, as the dragon claw approached Lu Yi, it dissipated like sand in the wind, leaving no trace.
Lu Yi frowned, “All I did was ask. Why resort to violence? And to fight in this restaurant, breaking things—you’ll have to pay for the damages.”
The Nascent Soul disciple frowned heavily, looking at Lu Yi with a solemn expression, then let out a long howl. Spiritual energy swirled around him, with dragon patterns coalescing around his body, emitting the aura of a wild and ferocious beast.
His powerful physique caused the surrounding cultivators to change color.
The Body Refining Techniques of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land are extremely formidable, and almost every disciple of the Holy Land is a fearsome practitioner of Body Cultivation.
Lu Yi frowned, a flicker in his eyes as if a mysterious Sword Pattern was coalescing into a slowly revolving sword figure.
The Nascent Soul disciple, who had been exuding a terrifying aura, shook violently, his face paled, and the dragon patterns around his body slowly dissipated. He looked at Lu Yi in horror, “You…”
Lu Yi said with a smile, “Fellow Daoist, if you attack recklessly in the city, I won’t be polite.”
The Nascent Soul disciple’s expression changed dramatically, and then, amidst the expressions of astonishment from all the Loose Cultivators, he actually withdrew his spiritual energy.
“Senior Brother?” A few Golden Core disciples from the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land looked at their Senior Brother in surprise.
“Shut up!” The Nascent Soul disciple snapped, looking at Lu Yi with a flashing gaze, unable to calm down, “Let’s go!”
With that, he turned to leave.
The few Golden Core disciples exchanged glances, and under the odd gazes of the crowd, they felt annoyed but didn’t dare to say more, following along.
Just then, Lu Yi’s voice rang out again, “My friend, you haven’t told me where your Saint Son is?”
The Nascent Soul disciple paused, then slowly said, “The Saint Son has naturally gone to the ruins.”
After speaking, he turned into a stream of light and, along with a few Golden Core disciples, vanished from the spot.
Watching the previously domineering disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land leave just like that left everyone quite bewildered, their gaze turning to Lu Yi.
Lu Yi had merely glanced at the Nascent Soul disciple, frightening him into turning around and leaving; everyone was guessing what Lu Yi had done, but they could not comprehend it.
The cultivators discussed in low, astonished tones, wondering what Lu Yi had done to scare those high and mighty Nascent Soul Cultivators into fleeing on the spot.
Even Jian Ruyu looked curiously at Lu Yi, “Junior Brother, what did you just do?”
Lu Yi smiled slightly, “Nothing much, I just subdued him with my sword intent.”
Lu Yi had also comprehended the sword intent from the Heavenly Thunder during the Heavenly Tribulation, and he had been reflecting on it every day since. Now, his Sword Tao Domain had even surpassed 20%, and he could simulate an extremely terrifying sword intent pressure with his Sword Tao Domain.
The disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Holy Land may have been Nascent Soul Cultivators, but the gap between them and him was too large; they couldn’t even withstand the pressure of Lu Yi’s sword intent.
Jian Ruyu was also incredibly shocked, not expecting Lu Yi’s sword intent pressure to be so overwhelming that a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from the Holy Land didn’t even have the courage to strike.
Lu Yi, feeling the gaze of the surrounding cultivators, smiled helplessly, “Senior Sister Ruyu, let’s go.”
Being watched by so many people just for eating something made Lu Yi somewhat embarrassed. Besides, the Spirit Food and Spiritual Wine made in this restaurant were very average; his own culinary skills had spoiled his taste, and he consumed the Spirit Food and Spiritual Wine he made every day.
