Chapter 130: The Cold Jade Token

"What a terrifying Sound Skill. With a Realm like this, she must be a genius from one of the great families!" The green-robed man, Gao Zhisong, narrowed his eyes. His gaze was incredibly grave as he stared at the Snow-clothed Woman before him.

...

"Xia Girl, little Chunyu, long time no see! Huh? Why are you two grabbing my arm?"

At that moment, on the edge of the cliff, the red-skirted girl and the green-skirted Little Maid were tightly gripping Ye Xing’s arms, one on his left and one on his right.

"Don’t do anything rash! This cliff is so high, you’ll be smashed to pieces if you jump!" the green-skirted Little Maid said, her wide eyes looking at Ye Xing with great earnestness as she tried to persuade him.

Faced with the adorably innocent little Chunyu, Ye Xing could only roll his eyes repeatedly.

"You damn scoundrel, you’ve really gotten yourself into some serious trouble lately. How did you manage to get so many Martial Artists hunting you down?" the red-skirted Xia Girl taunted, not missing a chance to mock him.

"Haha, I’ve always been this cool and dazzling. No need to be jealous of me!" Ye Xing was saying, when his gaze suddenly shifted forward in astonishment. "Holy shit, how is Miss Mengxue so powerful?!"

"Of course! If my lady uses her full strength, she’s incredibly powerful!" little Chunyu said, tilting her head up proudly.

"That’s not right. Isn’t Miss Mengxue’s Cultivation at the Martial Arts Seventh Realm?" Ye Xing asked in confusion. "How come it feels like those at the Martial Arts Eighth Layer are all just trash in front of her?"

"You’re so dense. The lady’s Inner Power Cultivation is indeed only at the Martial Arts Seventh Realm, but her Realm understanding is leagues ahead of those Martial Artists. Aside from the experts on the Wind and Cloud List, other Ninth Realm Martial Artists are no match for my lady at all," the red-skirted girl said.

At that moment, Tantai Mengxue was in a standoff with Gao Zhisong of the Seven-Snake Centipede Whip.

"Miss, I am determined to obtain the Purple Lightning Golden Eagle today. If you do not step aside, then I, Gao Zhisong, will have no choice but to offend you." The green-robed man, Gao Zhisong, slightly raised the Seven-Snake Centipede Whip in his hand and walked toward Tantai Mengxue.

"The Purple Lightning Golden Eagle already has a master. You should all leave," Tantai Mengxue said softly. Her beautiful eyes glinted as she removed a jade token from her waist.

"Even if the Purple Lightning Golden Eagle has a master, I will make it change masters and seize it—" The green-robed man, Gao Zhisong, was speaking when his pupils suddenly contracted. His eyes filled with shock and terror as he stared intently at the jade token in Tantai Mengxue’s hand.

"Th-this is..." The other four or five Martial Arts Ninth Layer Martial Artists, as well as the veteran Eighth Realm Martial Artists from the martial world, all looked horrified. They couldn’t help but shudder, their bodies trembling uncontrollably. Like Gao Zhisong, they stared intently at the jade token in Tantai Mengxue’s hand.

The jade token was only the size of a palm, carved from Cold Jade, and was a pure, crystalline white. The front of the token was engraved with the design of a crescent moon, sharp as a sickle, surrounded by many drifting snowflakes. The entire token seemed to emit a bone-chilling cold that struck terror into one’s heart.

"Miss, my apologies! I was reckless. Please forgive my offense. I’ll leave now, I’ll leave immediately!" The green-robed Gao Zhisong’s expression was one of absolute terror. He hurriedly turned and fled straight down the mountain.

The other Martial Artists also turned and left the clifftop one after another. In just a short while, the dozen or so most powerful Martial Artists in the crowd had all vanished. The remaining Martial Artists of the Seventh and Eighth Realms were all completely baffled, having no idea what was going on. They didn’t recognize the Cold Jade Token; all they knew was that the heavyweights in their group had turned pale with fright and fled for their lives the moment they saw it.

"What happened? What exactly is that Cold Jade Token?"

"I have no idea! I’ve never seen it before."

"Even Gao Zhisong of the Seven-Snake Centipede Whip was scared off. Its origin must be terrifyingly grand."

"That girl is so beautiful. It’s my first time seeing a beauty like her. I really want to take off that veil and see her face."

"Judging by her aura and the power she just displayed, she’s probably the favored daughter of some great family."

"Could she be from a family with an Innate Realm expert?"

"I’m afraid it’s not that simple. Didn’t you see how terrified Gao Zhisong was?"

"So, are we still going to try and take the Purple Lightning Golden Eagle?"

"Take my ass! Your life is what’s most important. Let’s focus on staying alive first!"

"We can’t take this Purple Lightning Golden Eagle. Let’s go! Let’s see if the Thunder Heart Spring Wood is mature yet!"

The many Martial Artists whispered amongst themselves, and one by one, they began to flee down the mountain. In just a moment, every last one of them was gone.

The mountain wind was bitingly cold, causing their sleeves to flutter and snap in the air.

Now, only four people remained on the cliff’s edge: Ye Xing, Tantai Mengxue, Xia Girl, and little Chunyu.

"Hee hee, you scoundrel! My lady saved you. How are you going to repay her?" little Chunyu asked.

"The ancients said: ’Repay a drop of kindness with a gushing spring.’ Saving my life is a great kindness, so I can only repay it with my body," Ye Xing said with a sly grin.

"In your dreams, you scoundrel!" little Chunyu said, rolling her eyes.

"Mengxue, you’ve been gone for so long. I missed you to death," Ye Xing said with a smile.

"It’s only been a few days, hasn’t it? By the way, Ye Xing, why are so many Martial Artists chasing you? Did you do something to anger both heaven and the people?" Tantai Mengxue asked, her beautiful eyes smiling slightly.

"I’m not the one who caused this mess. It was this little guy on my shoulder. This damn little thing is too mischievous," Ye Xing said with a wry smile, pointing to the Little Purple Eagle on his shoulder.

Tantai Mengxue’s beautiful eyes looked at the Little Purple Eagle on Ye Xing’s shoulder with some surprise. "The Purple Lightning Golden Eagle is a rare King-level Demon Beast. Ye Xing, don’t be ungrateful for your good fortune!"

"Hehe, it’s alright. Just a fluke!" Ye Xing said, scratching his head with a laugh. "You all should know about the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure, right? Are you planning to fight for it?"

"The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure is a treasure that even Innate Realm experts would covet. In one or two days at most, Innate Realm experts will probably start arriving. If we go and compete for it, our lives will be in danger. We might even lose our lives and still have a hard time obtaining the Thunder Heart Spring Wood." Tantai Mengxue said thoughtfully, "I don’t plan on getting involved in this. Ye Xing, you shouldn’t get involved either. It’s too dangerous!"

Feeling the concern from the three women, Ye Xing’s heart felt warm. He nodded and said, "Mm, don’t worry. I won’t do anything I’m not confident about."

The group immediately began walking down the mountain, talking and laughing. They soon returned to Immortal Spring Manor. The three girls went back into Immortal Spring Manor, while Ye Xing returned to his own Ye Mansion. He locked his door and went straight to the cave passage in the Training Room.

The cave passage was very dim, but Ye Xing’s vision was far better than before. He could see the path clearly without even needing to turn on a flashlight. He walked straight along the passage and soon arrived in the cave.

’I wonder if Wu Qiang has contacted that arms dealer yet. I need to get my hands on a batch of firearms for self-defense as soon as possible. Those sons of bitches... they dare to hunt me down? I’ll blow them all to kingdom come.’ Ye Xing’s eyes glinted coldly as he took the Purple Light Group Teleportation Gate out from his Qiankun Cloth Bag.

Then, he stepped directly into the Purple Light Group Teleportation Gate.
