Ji Yan, with a stern expression, stepped out of the wooden house. He frowned slightly upon seeing the situation outside. In a flash, he appeared beside Lu Shaoqing and Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi's face lit up with joy when she saw Ji Yan. "Senior Brother, please save my cousins!"
Ji Yan looked at Lu Shaoqing.
Lu Shaoqing replied, "Your admirers insisted on seeing you."
"I told them you were busy and not to disturb you, but they wouldn't listen."
"They forced their way in and brought this on themselves."
Ji Yan remained expressionless. "What are you up to this time?"
With a wave of his sleeve, the countless sword intents that had been attacking Xiao Qun and her group suddenly retreated underground and vanished, as if obeying a command.
Xiao Qun and the others were left pale and shaken, barely able to stand as they supported each other.
Pointing at Lu Shaoqing, Xiao Qun shouted, "You… you just wait! This isn’t over!"
Even a fool could see that Xiao Qun had fallen into Lu Shaoqing’s trap. He had deceived and toyed with her.
"You just wait! I'll have my grandfather kill you!" Xiao Qun continued to curse at Lu Shaoqing, joined by the others in her group. They all ignored Ji Yan, or perhaps Ji Yan had deliberately made himself unnoticeable to them.
Ji Yan frowned and waved his sleeve again, causing Xiao Qun and her companions to instantly lose consciousness.
Lu Shaoqing stared at Ji Yan with an equally expressionless face. "Ha, imitating our master with that sleeve wave—how impressive."
"Dare to slap them to death?"
"And you call yourself a Nascent Soul expert? They came to your territory and caused trouble, and you’re not even going to kill them? How will you save face if word gets out?"
Ji Yan responded calmly, "You're an adult now. Stop being so childish."
Lu Shaoqing retorted, "These people are my junior sister's enemies. They'll surely cause her trouble in the future. It's better to kill them now and eliminate the threat."
Ji Yan looked over at Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi quickly spoke up, "Senior Brother, I do have some conflicts with her, but it’s not to the point of killing her."
"She’s my cousin, and our grandfather is the Great Elder. Killing her would bring trouble to you all."
Ji Yan said, "We’re not afraid of trouble. If you want to kill them, go ahead."
His tone was indifferent, showing no concern for the lives of Xiao Qun and her group.
"Tianyu Peak fears no one and doesn't allow anyone to bully us."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi felt a warm sense of security. Her two senior brothers really made her feel safe.
However, Xiao Yi was still reluctant to bring trouble to her sect because of her. Besides, Xiao Qun and the others were her relatives, and she wasn't cruel enough to harm her own kin.
She said, "Just teaching them a lesson is enough."
Ji Yan glanced at Lu Shaoqing.
Lu Shaoqing looked back at him. "Why are you looking at me?"
"How many times have I told you not to be a saint? If someone needs killing, kill them. Stop dithering."
Ji Yan shot back, "Why don't you kill them?"
Lu Shaoqing replied, "There's no benefit in it. Junior Sister is so broke she can't even treat me to a meal."
"And my appearance fee is very expensive."
"Oh, that reminds me of something."
He paused and then scolded Ji Yan, "The next time you cause trouble, can you at least clean up after yourself?"
"I had to clean up after you last time. How are we settling that?"
He extended his hand. "Labor fee."
"Clang!"
The sword on Ji Yan's back emerged halfway, its blade gleaming coldly.
Ji Yan said in a calm tone, "Want to spar?"
"Let me show you the strength of a Nascent Soul cultivator."
For some reason, though Ji Yan's voice was steady and calm, Xiao Yi could hear a hint of pride in it. It was as if he was showing off his power to Lu Shaoqing.
"Get lost."
"Is there any point in using your higher cultivation to intimidate me?"
Lu Shaoqing snapped back.
Xiao Yi stifled a giggle. It was rare to see her Second Senior Brother in such a tough spot.
Even their master couldn't do much to him, yet here he was, getting put in his place by the First Senior Brother.
As expected, the First Senior Brother was truly remarkable. Only he could handle the Second Senior Brother.
Seeing the two of them bickering, Xiao Yi felt like dragging a small stool over to sit and watch the show.
Noticing Xiao Yi's laughter, Ji Yan turned to Lu Shaoqing and said, "One month remains. Don’t forget."
Lu Shaoqing retorted, "So what?"
"If Junior Sister can’t do it, are you planning to kill her?"
Xiao Yi’s face turned pale. Why had the conversation shifted back to her? The pressure was immense.
Ji Yan said, "If she can't do it, forget about your sect benefits for a year."
Lu Shaoqing grumbled, "You’re sick, really sick."
"Just you wait. Once I surpass your strength, I'll give you a good beating."
A rare smile appeared on Ji Yan's usually stern face, an unexpectedly attractive one.
Xiao Yi was momentarily stunned.
"I’ll be waiting. You can try when you have the chance."
After Ji Yan returned to the wooden house, Lu Shaoqing smacked Xiao Yi on the head.
"What are you staring at? You're drooling."
Xiao Yi instinctively wiped her mouth, only to realize she’d been tricked.
Blushing, she said, "Second Senior Brother, you’re lying."
Lu Shaoqing ordered, "Go, get their stuff for me."
"What stuff?" Xiao Yi was momentarily confused.
"Their storage rings, and anything else valuable. Bring it all to me."
Xiao Yi finally understood. "Second Senior Brother, are you robbing them?"
"Yes, is there a problem?"
Lu Shaoqing asked confidently.
Seeing his righteous attitude, Xiao Yi was at a loss for words.
"But… if word gets out, it’ll be really embarrassing."
Lu Shaoqing sneered, "What’s embarrassing about it?"
"Not taking it would be embarrassing. Now go. If you don’t, I’ll throw them back in."
He threatened, then coaxed, "They’re your enemies. Why are you worried about them?"
"Just think about it. If you take all their things, they’ll be furious when they wake up, won’t they?"
Although Xiao Yi thought this was a shameless act, Lu Shaoqing’s words made too much sense.
She hesitated, "Are you sure?"
"Go on, hurry up. We still have to go to the Sword Cave today."
"Second Senior Brother, why don’t you go yourself?"
"They’re women. If they were men, would I need you?"
"Quick, be thorough. Don’t miss anything."
