Seeking the Immortal Way

Cui Wentai patted Peng Yue's shoulder, and said to him: "I think it's best if you speak less, that Lin Yan is not simple, from his skills in the tavern, I'm afraid that you are not his match. Therefore, in front of Lin Yan, I advise you to speak less, if you really provoke him, I think Shu Yao and I will not be able to protect you."

If it was really a head-on clash, he wouldn't be my match at all. Don't forget, he's only just a late period of Foundation Stage Cultivation Level, and I'm at the peak of the late period of Foundation Stage, so I'm one stage stronger than him. Why would he be stronger than me? "

Cui Wentai laughed, and shook his head: "Actually, I also understand this point, there is indeed a realm difference between the two of you, but I also have a kind of indescribable feeling, I just feel that this Lin Yan is definitely not as simple as he looks, so you better be careful."

Peng Yue maintained his haughty expression as he said, "I actually feel that if there's a chance, I must properly teach this person a lesson and let him know just how powerful I am. Let's see if he dares to look down on me, and at the same time, let him give a reasonable explanation for his sneak attack."

When Cui Wentai saw Peng Yue's attitude, he sighed inwardly. Regarding his junior brother's temperament, Cui Wentai completely understood him, and he was like a stubborn donkey. As long as he knew what he was doing, regardless of whether he was right or wrong, he would do it, and he would not care about the consequences.

Not long after, Lin Yan's group walked out from the city gates of Chang Yi City. Seeing that Shu Yao and the other two were already waiting, the four immediately walked over to them and greeted them warmly.

Shu Yao was still dressed in a white dress, with a white hairpin on her head and a longsword hanging from her waist, her snow-white sword sheath looked spotless. Looking at her, she indeed gave off an ethereal feeling, as if she was someone who did not exist in the mortal world.

When Peng Yue saw the four of them walking over, he hugged his shoulders and let out a cold snort. He turned his head away, not even looking at Lin Yan, and in his heart, he was still holding a grudge from yesterday's matter.

Lin Yan also glanced at the two people beside Shu Yao. Although Cui Wentai was not very friendly, his actions were considered normal, and he did not display any kind of unfriendliness. Perhaps he felt that there was a reason why he was unfamiliar with them, and did not seem to be close.

Peng Yue's face was red, from the looks of it, he was forcefully suppressing the anger in his heart, like a hedgehog, he was full of enmity towards his surroundings.

Lin Yan just gave Peng Yue a bland look, without saying anything, he turned and said to Shu Yao: "Since everyone is already here, let's go on our way."

Shu Yao nodded and the group of seven walked along the main road in the direction of the distant Yongning City.

Along the way, Long Fei kept on telling everyone interesting stories about the sect, causing everyone to laugh out loud. Cui Wentai also recounted some of the stories about his sect, making both parties more familiar with each other.

was standing at the side, following the crowd closely, his eyes staring straight at Lin Yan, clenching his fists tightly, especially when he saw Shu Yao revealing an enchanting smile towards Lin Yan, Peng Yue was extremely unhappy, she swore in her heart that she would find a chance to teach Lin Yan a lesson, and at the same time, keep him away from the person she loved.

By noon, everyone was a little tired from walking, so they found an empty space and sat down to rest.

Xiao Yuexin took out some snacks she bought in Chang Yi City and shared it with everyone. Long Fei also took out some dried meat and rations and distributed them to everyone.

Along the way, Peng Yue didn't say a single word. His eyes stared fixedly at Lin Yan until they had finished eating. Only then, Peng Yue stood up, and with an expression as cold as ice, he walked towards Lin Yan.

Seeing that, Cui Wentai frowned, he anxiously pulled on Peng Yue's sleeves and whispered to him: "Junior brother, don't be rash."

Peng Yue laughed coldly, then said to him: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Shu Yao also looked at Peng Yue, her brows slightly knitted, not knowing what he was planning to do.

Peng Yue had a haughty look on his face as he walked in front of Lin Yan, raised his hand, pointed, and said to Lin Yan: "Lin Yan, since we're idle here and now, why don't you try out a few moves with me and let everyone see the difference in power between Sky Cloud Martial Sect and our White Feather Sect's swordsmanship."

Hearing Peng Yue's words, Long Fei frowned, he knew in his heart that Peng Yue was here to cause trouble, so he anxiously stood up and said: "Since you want to exchange pointers, why don't I play with you?"

Peng Yue glanced at Long Fei, and said with a sneer: "The person I am looking for is Lin Yan, it has nothing to do with you, furthermore, you are not my match at all, I am too lazy to fight with you."

"How preposterous!" Long Fei was furious, with a clang, he unsheathed his sword, the aura around his body suddenly increased, and in the next moment he was about to rush to Peng Yue.

But at this time, Lin Yan stopped him, and laughed: "Forget it, the person he is looking for is me, it has nothing to do with you. Even if you win against him, you can't make him submit wholeheartedly, let me do it."

With that, Lin Yan stood up, and said to Peng Yue who was standing in front of him with a smile: "I don't want to fight with you. My sword will usually only point at the enemy, and will not face my friends."

Peng Yue laughed, his face carrying a look of disdain as he said to Lin Yan: "I saw that you didn't dare to fight with me, so I came up with such a grand excuse. Fine, since that's the case, then admit that your Sky Cloud Martial Sect's swordsmanship is inferior to our Baiyu Sect, so I won't pursue this matter."

"This is too much, how can it be like this?" Xiao Yuexin frowned, and said unhappily.

"This person is truly arrogant. If it wasn't for giving face to Shu Yao, I really want to go up and teach him a lesson." Zhu Zimo said somewhat angrily.

Long Fei's momentum was still unrestrained. He grasped the sword hilt in his hand, looking ready to go. There was a trace of anger in his eyes.

Shu Yao also thought that Peng Yue was being a little too excessive, and immediately revealed a cold expression, as if the temperature around him had dropped.

Cui Wentai looked at Peng Yue, and sighed secretly in his heart. With his understanding of Peng Yue, he was afraid that today's battle was unavoidable, but would he really be Lin Yan's opponent?

Shu Yao was just about to say something, but Lin Yan stopped him for a bit, and with a calm expression, he smiled and said to Peng Yue: "Since you want to experience the Sky Cloud Martial Sect's swordsmanship, then I'll accompany you."

Cui Wentai anxiously stood out and said to the two of them: "Alright, since it's a spar, I hope both of you will stop here, and do not go overboard."

The reason why he said those words was because Cui Wentai felt that Peng Yue might not be Lin Yan's match. Although Peng Yue's realm was a bit higher than Lin Yan's, and his White Feather swordsmanship was already at the consummate stage, and was also a small renowned expert in the sect, Cui Wentai was still a little worried. Hence, he used these words to warn Lin Yan, and show mercy.

Lin Yan quickly understood what Cui Wentai meant and smiled towards him before nodding his head in agreement.

When Peng Yue heard that Lin Yan had accepted his challenge, a vicious look flashed across his eyes. In his heart, he thought that he must properly humiliate Lin Yan in front of him, and at the same time, raise his position in Shu Yao's heart.

The two of them came to an empty space at the side and stood opposite to each other. A cool breeze blew by, and it was as if they could feel the auras of the two of them, and they circled around each other.

Everyone sat at the side, nervously looking at the two of them. They were uncertain as to who would win in the end. It was hard to say.

Long Fei frowned and asked Zhu Zimo in a low voice: "Lin Yan went through a huge battle yesterday, and the genuine essence in his body was consumed quite a bit. Even though it had been treated by the Pills, is he really back to his peak condition? I can see that Peng Yue has an extraordinary aura and seems to have quite a strong opinion of him. I wonder if it would be during the exchange of pointers that he would try to harm Lin Yan? "
