Chapter 680 676: Fire Qilin Immortal Sect Core Disciple
At this moment, the two men appearing before everyone were wearing battle robes embroidered with the emblem of a flaming Qilin.
This flaming Qilin looked so lifelike, as if it could leap out at any moment.
Generally, only disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect would wear such battle robes.
This meant that these two men were very likely disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect.
And the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect was the most powerful Immortal Sect in Fire Province. Even among all the Immortal Sects in the Southern Heaven Domain, its overall strength ranked within the top thirty, far surpassing the Azure Sky Immortal Sect by countless times.
Therefore, both Mingyue Fairy and Lanling Fairy were extremely wary of these two disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect.
"Brothers of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect, we were unaware that these treasure medicines had already caught your attention. We deeply apologize and request forgiveness. We will leave immediately," Chen Kang, the Candidate Saint Son from Celestial Sword Peak, suddenly broke into a cold sweat and spoke to the two men with utmost respect.
He could sense that the cultivation of these two men was at the Profound Pill Realm First Layer and Profound Pill Realm Second Layer, respectively.
With his current strength, he could barely handle the one at the Profound Pill Realm First Layer.
As for the other man, he could certainly defeat Chen Kang with ease.
After all, being a disciple of a first-rate Immortal Sect like the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect, even their True Disciples had terrifying talent, not any weaker than the Candidate Saint Son from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.
Thus, dreaming of challenging the man at the Profound Pill Realm Second Layer was utterly unrealistic for him.
To avoid provoking these two men, he had no choice but to painfully give up on the treasure medicines here.
Ultimately, staying alive was what mattered most to him.
"Damn it, are we really going to let them take these treasure medicines? We found these treasure medicines first," Mingyue Fairy's eyes were filled with deep resentment.
Growing up, she had always been under the protection of Venerable Qingfeng, and no one dared to snatch anything from her.
But now, these two men intended to seize the treasure medicines she discovered, which made her unwilling to accept it.
"Mingyue, do not act impulsively. They are True Disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect! If we provoke them, they will undoubtedly kill us without hesitation," Lanling Fairy, standing nearby, spoke to Mingyue Fairy with utmost seriousness and urgency.
In Cang Province, few dared to offend Mingyue Fairy, a Candidate Saint Son of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.
However, in the eyes of these two True Disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect, she was nothing.
If Mingyue Fairy unwittingly angered them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Alas! Like a tiger that has fallen to the plains, now bullied, let it be. It's just a few treasure medicines. Better to avoid trouble." Despite Mingyue Fairy's extreme anger, she forced herself to endure.
She sensed a tremendous threat from the man at the Profound Pill Realm Second Layer.
If they were indeed to clash, even joining forces with Ye Chen and others might not be enough to defeat the opponent.
Furthermore, they had another helper.
"Heh! At least you have some sense. If you refuse to comply, you won't leave here alive today." The burly man laughed disdainfully, a playful smirk on his lips.
Despite being only a True Disciple of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, his cultivation had reached the Profound Pill Realm First Layer, strong enough to rival the Candidate Saint Sons of second-rate Immortal Sects.
The three insignificant figures before them, whose cultivation matched his, were also in the Profound Pill Realm First Layer.
But his Brother Lin beside him had already reached the Profound Pill Realm Second Layer, far surpassing the combined strength of these three.
He did not believe that these three dared to oppose them.
Whoosh!
Just then, a figure suddenly dashed from the canyon toward a red spirit grass, storing it into his Storage Bracelet.
The figure was none other than Ye Chen.
He seemed oblivious to the presence of the two disciples from the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect, casually collecting the treasure medicines imbued with Wood Spirit Qi.
"No, it's Ye Chen. How could he still be collecting those treasure medicines!" Mingyue Fairy's face suddenly transformed.
"Young Master Ye Chen, stop immediately. They are disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect, not ones we can afford to offend. Hand over the treasure medicines to them, or they'll kill you," Lanling Fairy's beautiful face turned utterly pale, her expression filled with anxiety.
Even though Ye Chen was an Alchemy Grandmaster, with skills surpassing many Venerable Golden Cores.
His cultivation was still only at the Divine Mansion Realm, strong as he might be, he was absolutely no match for the two disciples of the Fire Qilin Immortal Sect.
Especially the man at the Profound Pill Realm Second Layer, whose power was extremely terrifying, completely beyond Ye Chen's ability to contend with.
"Hmph! That fool is simply seeking death, thinking he is still in the Azure Sky Immortal Sect and can do whatever he pleases? No one here will pamper him." Chen Kang sneered internally, viewing Ye Chen like a mere clown.
In the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, with that mysterious person backing him, indeed no one could deal with Ye Chen.
But here was the Ancient Ruins, Ye Chen's backer couldn't enter.
So, this time, no one would stand up for Ye Chen.
If he continued being reckless, death was the only outcome.
"Oh! Who did I think it was? Turns out it's a mere Divine Mansion Realm ant. Who gave you the courage to explore this Ancient Ruins with your kind?" The burly man couldn't help but laugh, his mouth full of mocking disdain.
The short man by his side didn't even bother sparing Ye Chen a glance, as if it was an insult to him.
"Ye Chen, if you don't want to die, come over and apologize to these two Brothers, or even we can't save you," Chen Kang said to Ye Chen, furrowing his brows tightly.
His words were not out of concern for Ye Chen's safety, but because he feared being dragged into trouble by Ye Chen.
However, to his surprise, Ye Chen seemed not to have heard him and continued collecting treasure medicines by himself.
"Ant, I am talking to you! Are you deaf? I'll say it again, obediently hand over your treasure medicines, and I might spare your miserable life! Otherwise, no mercy." The burly man, ignored by Ye Chen, suddenly had an extremely darkened expression, murderous intent flaring in his eyes.
A mere Divine Mansion Realm ant dared defy him.
To him, it was the utmost disrespect.
If he wanted this ant dead, it was as easy as turning his hand.
