Chapter 460: Chapter 460: Li Yanran Wants to Clean House!

Hearing the newcomer’s voice, Yu Zhibai’s pupils instantly constricted.

In the vast expanse of the secret realm, he hadn’t expected to encounter Li Yanran here!

The three female cultivators from the Spirit Sound Sect also turned to look in that direction in an instant.

The treatment of a prominent sect was different; after arriving at the Haotian Sect, they were gathered together, only waiting for the moment when the secret realm was about to open before heading to that valley.

Since they were all from the Eastern Domain’s sects, they had all met each other before.

However, Li Yanran was equally a stranger to them, and naturally, they realized that Li Yanran was a junior sect sister from Yu Zhibai’s former sect.

Li Yanran’s body coursed with Spiritual Power, and the Vitality Force was incredibly vast and pure. The three female cultivators recognized it at once—she had a single-type Wood Spiritual Root!

Actually, Li Yanran wouldn’t have appeared rashly, but recognizing that the three female cultivators were from the Spirit Sound Sect, despite her reservations about Yu Zhibai’s previous arrangement to be on guard against Lu Chen, she still stepped forward.

After all, it was more important to guard against outsiders than to deal with internal disagreements among those from the same sect.

Moreover, the ice shards strewn across the ground clearly indicated that Yu Zhibai had been in a fight with someone.

Li Yanran certainly didn’t know that Yu Zhibai intended to make connections with the people from the Spirit Sound Sect and even wanted to use them. She walked straight over and stood by Yu Zhibai’s side.

The eldest senior sister of the Spirit Sound Sect detected some slight signs, chuckled softly, and said, "This younger sister, you mustn’t misunderstand. We have no conflict with your senior brother here."

"Senior sister of the Spirit Sound Sect," Li Yanran, who was also very astute, was only briefly stunned before reacting, and politely responded, "If my senior brother has offended in any way, please forgive him."

Yu Zhibai, seeing the almost imperceptible smile on the eldest senior sister’s face, also relaxed. He wasn’t worried about the three female cultivators, but rather that they might intentionally reveal the news of him joining the Haotian Sect to Li Yanran!

Having cultivated for many years together in the Casting Gear Pavilion, he understood Li Yanran’s nature very well.

If she learned of this matter, she would likely turn against him on the spot!

But as it’s said, whatever you worry about tends to happen!

The eldest senior sister suddenly changed the subject and said, "This younger sister, your senior brother has already joined the Haotian Sect. When do you plan to join? I believe with your looks, joining the Haotian Sect shouldn’t be difficult!"

Upon hearing this, both Yu Zhibai and Li Yanran changed color simultaneously!

"Senior brother Yu, you joined the Haotian Sect?"

With the secret revealed, Yu Zhibai naturally did not deny it and said outright, "The Haotian Sect is a top-tier sect, and my prospects on the Immortal Path will be broader after joining! Not to mention, I am about to become a disciple of the great elder!"

Li Yanran clearly could not accept this reality, which was more shocking to her than their arrangement to deal with Lu Chen together. Her chest heaved violently, and suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she quickly cast a spell and retreated several steps!

"Junior sister Li," Yu Zhibai’s eyes flashed with a dangerous light as he spoke, "Are you thinking... of killing me?"

Li Yanran’s voice trembled as she said, "Senior brother Yu, it’s not too late to turn back... Although the Haotian Sect is a top-tier sect, but..."

"But what?"

Yu Zhibai’s expression turned cold as he snapped, "What about a top-tier sect? A top-tier sect is where the geniuses belong. Even the least among their disciples are much better off than staying in that God-forsaken Artificing Sect!"

This statement was no lie!

Apart from providing resources for cultivation, the Casting Gear Pavilion could hardly offer any guidance regarding Cultivation Techniques.

And for resources, would the Haotian Sect lack them?

Holding such a secret realm, and furthermore, becoming a disciple of the great elder, put aside anything else, the daily sparring alone would be immensely beneficial.

For Yu Zhibai, the cultivators in the Casting Gear Pavilion...

Were nothing but waste!

"But senior brother Yu, by doing this, you are betraying our sect!"

Li Yanran finally spoke her mind.

Yu Zhibai raised his eyebrows and repeated his previous question, "So, you want to kill me? To clean the sect’s name?"

Li Yanran looked towards the other three female cultivators.

"The three senior sisters surely wouldn’t interfere in an affair of a third-rate sect like the Casting Gear Pavilion, right?"

Yu Zhibai sneered, "Of course they won’t interfere, but Li Yanran, do you really think you can be a match for me?"

However, upon hearing the term "Casting Gear Pavilion," the complexions of the three female cultivators changed abruptly. They were tasked with a mission that required the disciples of the Casting Gear Pavilion!

Their junior sister was in charge of contacting the people from the Casting Gear Pavilion, but she was already dead!

Could it be, was it this Yu Zhibai who had killed her?

Immediately, the three female cultivators drew out their Magic Artifacts, aiming them at Yu Zhibai, ready to strike at any moment!

This sudden turn of events left both Yu Zhibai and Li Yanran stunned.

Even Lu Chen, hidden among the treetops, was also caught off-guard!

"It seems the situation has become rather delicate, how should I use the female cultivators of the Spirit Sound Sect to kill Yu Zhibai first?"
