Chapter 10: Do you believe me? I'll report you!
Hai Yunfan entered Taoyuan Village for a short time before the third batch of guests arrived.
It was not unexpected that Hai Yunfan, although talented, the Immortal Ascension Conference gathered the best of the world, and apart from Wang Lu, there were several people with similar qualifications to Hai Yunfan.
So when Hai Yunfan and Wang Lu were chatting happily, they had already foreseen that the next Peach Blossom Village would be a lively scene.
——
"What the hell is this place?"
"Shouldn't there be Red Ridge Mountain and Icewind Valley behind Yunbo Map? How did a village suddenly appear out of nowhere?"
"This is different from what was said..."
That afternoon, three newcomers appeared in the village one after another, all of whom came from a family of immortal cultivators with a rank of third-grade or higher. Their noble and prominent backgrounds made even Hai Yunfan cautious when interacting with them.
These three people not only have a prestigious background and exceptional talent, but also come from a family of immortal cultivators. They had made an agreement to help each other, forming a strong alliance, which was the biggest opponent that Haoyun Fan expected. If it weren't for Wang Lu's sudden intervention, Haoyun Fan would have been racking his brains trying to figure out how to deal with those three people. However, now... probably he wouldn't need to worry about it himself anymore.
Looking at the three people walking together outside the village, Hai Yunfan sneered in his heart: It won't be long before there's a good show to watch.
On one side was the unfathomable and mysterious Wang Lu, a mountain hermit. On the other side were the arrogant and proud cultivators of the immortal world's aristocratic families. This small mountain village could not possibly accommodate both parties, and their meeting would inevitably lead to thunder and fire. Now that I think about it, perhaps this was also intentional on the part of the Ling Jian Sect?
But all this has nothing to do with me, I'll just hide and watch the show for now.
The good show Hai Yunfan had been expecting didn't make him wait too long.
————
"Get out of here."
The young man from Youzhou, who was standing in the backyard of the village head's house, pointed at Wang Lu with a look of disgust and made a request.
Then, as the recipient, Wang Lu gnawed on a corn on the cob and asked vaguely with a puzzled expression: "Who the hell are you? Are you sick?"
Xie Qianlong's anger surged up, his eyebrows inverted: "How dare you be rude to me? Do you know who I am?"
Wang Lu slapped his thigh: "I'm asking because I don't know! You're really sick, aren't you?"
Xie Qianlong subconsciously reached into his pocket and seemed to be taking something out, but he hesitated for a moment and calmed down slightly.
"I am Youzhou Listening Rain Pavilion, the 14th generation descendant of the Xie family..."
"Hello, young one! What brings you here?"
Xie Qian's temples bulged with anger: "I've already told you once, get out of here."
"Move out? Why?"
"Because I want you to move out."
"Tsk, for a grown man to say 'I want' so casually."
Xie Qianlong finally couldn't bear it and was about to take action, when his two companions impatiently walked in: "Young Master Xie, why are you so slow?"
"Doesn't that kid know how to show respect?"
Xie Qianlong stopped them: "You two, don't interfere."
Wang Lu picked up an ear of corn and looked at the three people who had broken into the private house with increasing puzzlement, then asked Hai Yunfan who was following behind the three.
"What's going on with these three?"
Hai Yun cursed under his breath, he didn't think that hiding behind the tree would also get him caught by Wang Lu. He originally planned to watch from outside, but unexpectedly got pulled into the scene and became an actor?
Wang Lu called out to break the silence, and Hai Yunfan walked out with a big smile on his face, greeting the three young masters.
"Xie Gongzi, Yun Gongzi, Li Gongzi."
The three of them were also shocked when they saw Hai Yunfan: "Hai Yunfan? Is that you?"
Wang Lu was also surprised: "Xiao Hai, it seems like you don't have much status in their eyes?"
Hai Yun Fan cursed: Nonsense, this place is within the Immortal Mountain, not under the jurisdiction of the mortal emperor. Moreover, with the three of them joining forces, I, the Second Prince of the Yun Tai Empire, am naturally not in a position to negotiate! You're usually dull, but when it comes to embarrassing others, you're particularly sharp!
But Hai Yunfan was indeed Hai Yunfan, and at a young age, he had already become very cunning. With an unchanged smile, he ignored Wang Lu's question and said: "Just now, Mr. Xie meant to say that he hopes you can move out of the village head's house."
Wang Lu also threw off Xie Qianlong and had a conversation with Hai Yunfan: "Why?"
Hai Yunfan glanced at the three princes, who clearly didn't intend to say anything more to Wang Lu and were all waiting for his response.
Alright, having watched the show on stage, Hai Yunfan cleared his throat and began to explain: "Hehe, it's actually quite simple. Xie Gongzi and his family are extremely famous in the cultivation world, with a prestigious status. As for you, Wang brother, although your potential is astonishing, you're ultimately just a country bumpkin..."
Upon hearing this, Wang Lu became somewhat impatient: "I didn't take a liking to their mother planning on becoming my stepmother, what's the point of bringing up differences in social status?"
"This is... because of your humble origin, you are now living in the best location in the village, while Xie Gongzi and others seem to be able to live only in ordinary civilian residences. This point... doesn't make sense." Ha Yunfan added after finishing speaking, "Of course, I'm just explaining, not representing my own viewpoint."
After clarifying the matter, Hai Yunfan continued to fulfill his duty as an interpreter, remaining silent and waiting for Wang Lu's reaction.
Wang Lu's reaction was a long silence.
Xie Qianlong was really impatient: "Young man, what exactly do you want? Wasting our precious time, can you afford the price for that?"
Wang Lu sneered, "I get it. You're the kind of second-rate young masters who can't make a name for themselves in their own families, so they run away from home and try to prove their worth through some sort of adventure. Xiao Hai, I've got all your information, and if I'm not mistaken, these so-called young masters are probably pretty miserable in their own families, right?"
Hai Yunfan smiled wryly, how can I say such words that offend people? Moreover, it's not even worth mentioning the hardships, being able to achieve today's results in the Lingjian Sect's trial is already a rare talent... but indeed as Wang Lu said, they each have their own difficulties and are not at ease.
Xie Qianlong and others were already burning with anger and could no longer bear it.
"You stinky brat, you're asking for trouble yourself, so don't blame us!"
"Hum, no idea whether he's dead or alive!"
"With a slightly better score in the cloud diagram, you really think of yourself as an extraordinary person?"
Three people each made a move, Xie Qianlong reached into his pocket, Yun family's young master grasped the hilt of his sword, Li family's young master stood with his hands behind his back, and his long hair moved without wind.
Hai Yun's heart was racing: these children of immortal families were indeed extraordinary, each having a treasured object bestowed upon them by their family... and they were all high-grade treasures!
What is Lingjian Mountain? How can you casually bring a fairy family's artifact into the mountain? On the Golden Bridge, ordinary artifacts have already been rejected. To be able to deceive the Golden Bridge and sneak past the Yunbo Map to enter Taoyuan Village, it's probably not just an artifact, but possibly a treasure!
Even if it's a third-rate family, the law treasure is not something that can be given out casually. The status of these three people in the family is probably higher than what was reported... However, the current focus is that these three 11-12 year old children holding the law treasure, even a hundred elite soldiers from the Cloud Tai Empire would be annihilated in an instant, I wonder how Wang Lu will resist?
Hai Yun didn't doubt Xie Qianlong's ruthlessness at all. The great immortal families had always viewed human lives as insignificant, and in her impression, the three of them were from a family that was particularly notorious for this, barely clinging to the edge of righteousness but basically being evil within the righteous path...
In their view, Wang Lu was a person without family background or power, although he had an astonishing talent, but since he got in the way... there was only one word: death.
As for Wang Lu... he indeed has all sorts of mysterious and extraordinary aspects, but in the end is just from an inconspicuous small mountain village... now still far can't be compared to Xie Qian Long.
So what can this fledgling genius do in the face of such an imminent threat?
As an onlooker, Hai Yunfan was extremely curious!
There are ways to stop this fight, although Xie Qianlong and the other two don't have much respect for themselves. As long as they show their trump card, they can still shock the scene for a while. It's just... Wang Lu and himself are not related, no reason to turn over the trump card for him, right?
Moreover, if one can't even get past this kind of situation, it can only be said that they misjudged the person, and Wang Lu is all talk and no action, not worth paying attention to, let alone befriending.
Come on, Wang Lu, tell me your answer... Hai Yunfan was waiting anxiously by the side.
Then, Wang Lu calmly tapped his hand on the table: "You... aren't trying to bully the few with the many, are you?"
Three young masters from noble families looked at each other in dismay as Yun Xiao and Li Xiao simultaneously withdrew their hands.
Things were stirred up by Xie Qianlong, and naturally he should be the one to settle them. The immortals indeed looked at mortals as ants, but rules still had to be followed. With their status, bullying the minority would be laughable.
As for Xie Qianlong, he was stunned for a moment before he couldn't help but burst out laughing: "You little brat, what's the difference between one person and three people to you? Do you think you have the qualifications to exchange blows with me?"
Wang Lu also smiled: "You're quite impatient, actually I was going to say, if you're willing to gang up on me, that's even better. One by one is too troublesome, let's just do it all at once."
"What did you say?!"
Wang Lu's face also sank: "I'm saying that to deal with you few insignificant people, one of me is enough, or rather, I only need one sentence to subdue you."
The room fell silent for a while after such a shocking speech.
As a spectator, Hai Yunfan clearly felt his heart beating faster, and the excitement of what was about to unfold completely overwhelmed him.
Even if it's just a show of force, the attitude Wang Lu is displaying now is still moving, let alone Hai Yunfan doesn't think Wang Lu is just showing off, in other words, those three young masters are going to be out of luck.
As for Xie Qianlong and others, they only had endless shame and anger.
To be humiliated by a rustic like this... it's no longer just about myself, but a great shame that involves my family! Wang Lu, I'd rather die than admit defeat!
"Glacial Sudden Rain Symbol!"
"Shapeless Cloud Sword!"
"Essence of Crimson Blood!"
Three people simultaneously took out their magic treasures, and the room was instantly filled with murderous intent. Although the three had not yet formally embarked on the path of cultivation, they had no cultivation to speak of, relying solely on the power sealed within their magic treasures by their family elders, which could only be unleashed in extreme circumstances... However, it was enough to kill Wang Lu a thousand times over.
Wang Lu's response was just one sentence.
"Village head, someone is causing trouble."
Before the words had fallen, a black shadow broke in through the window and pounced on Xie Qianlong and the other three.
That black shadow moved as fast as lightning, its fists and feet creating countless illusions flying towards the three people, accompanied by a strange sound effect.
"Ahh, fight fight fight fight fight fight fight fight!"
In an instant, blood splattered everywhere, and the three of them were knocked to the ground before they could even activate their magic treasures, falling into a coma.
The black shadow knocked out three people and broke the window to escape, not staying for a moment, leaving only Wang Lu's master and servant in the house, and Hai Yunfan who was extremely shocked.
Then, Hai Yunfan clearly heard Wang Lu's disdainful voice.
"A few broken pieces of a sect dare to challenge me, the master of the Reporting Sect? You don't know life or death!"
