"What about you?" Yun Lintian looked at Huang Ba and asked curiously."I'm different from them," Huang Ba chuckled. "Instead of flattering someone in exchange for resources, I'd rather snatch them from others."
Yun Lintian chuckled at this. Huang Ba's method was certainly straightforward.
"How long will it take for your people to arrive?" he asked.
"Should be a few hours," Huang Ba replied.
"That quick?" Yun Lintian was surprised.
"Normally, our people are routinely traveling between the two regions. My master has probably told someone nearby to come over," Huang Ba explained, looking at Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia. "They are the same."
"I see." Yun Lintian was speechless. These people could have taken an easier way to travel, yet they chose to come here for a little adventure.
If Yun Lintian had a choice, he wouldn't have chosen this way to travel. It was too troublesome and a waste of time.
At this moment, Long Jingxia and Gu Bingning arrived with all the victims from the basement. Some of them were not so fortunate; their Divine Cores had been removed, leaving them clinging to life.
Yun Lintian looked at the victims with an indifferent expression. There were unfortunate people everywhere in the world. They were at least lucky to be alive.
"Senior..." Long Jingxia spoke hesitantly. She wanted to ask Yun Lintian for help but knew it was too much. However, she couldn't bear to see these people suffer.
"What? Don't you think it's too much?" Huang Ba glared at Long Jingxia with dissatisfaction. He was, of course, aware of Long Jingxia's request.
"I... I can pay for it," Long Jingxia said uncertainly.
Yun Lintian looked at her and sighed inwardly. He wondered in what kind of environment she had lived to reach this level of naivety.
However, considering her age, it was understandable. Whether Huang Ba, Long Jingxia, or Gu Bingning, all of them were only a hundred years old. It was extremely impressive to reach the God Emperor Realm at such a young age.
"Next time," Yun Lintian said calmly, "you should evaluate yourself before helping others. You could get yourself killed and implicate everyone else like today. Without me here, both of you would've suffered a miserably fate."
"I'm sorry," Long Jingxia bowed deeply, her face filled with regret.
Yun Lintian didn't say anything further and waved his hand, sending several green vines towards the victims. Their injuries began to recover.
"Thank you, Senior! You're our benefactor!" The victims knelt down and said with tears when they discovered their Profound Veins had recovered. Although they had to start over, it was better than being crippled forever.
Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia were surprised to see their condition. Even though there were several ways to repair Profound Veins, none of them could be achieved almost instantly like what Yun Lintian had done.
Yun Lintian retracted the vines and said, "Get up. I don't like anyone kneeling for me. Whatever happens to you in the future has nothing to do with me. You don't have to repay anything."
The victims cried even harder upon hearing this. Yun Lintian's words sounded harsh but were filled with kindness.
Yun Lintian didn't say anything further and continued to drink.
A few hours passed. A shadow emerged from the void, darkening the horizon as a colossal profound ark, etched with intricate golden runes, materialized amidst the wreckage. Its sheer size dwarfed the shattered remains of the original ship, radiating an aura of power that sent tremors through the surrounding space.
"No way…" Huang Ba's face paled, his knees trembling uncontrollably. He recognized the profound ark instantly. It belonged to his second uncle, Huang Zheng, a formidable elder of the Thousand Skulls Valley and a cultivator renowned for his strict discipline and unyielding nature.
"Second Uncle!" Huang Ba stammered, his voice barely a whisper.
A figure clad in tattered grey robe emerged from the profound ark, his imposing presence radiating an aura of absolute authority. His sharp eyes swept across the scene, taking in the devastation and the trembling figure of his nephew.
"Ba'er," Huang Zheng's voice boomed like thunder, echoing across the wreckage, "is this how you represent the Thousand Skulls Valley? Cowering before a mere trash like Kong Cheng and relying on outsiders for rescue?"
Huang Ba's face flushed with shame. He lowered his head, unable to meet his uncle's disapproving gaze. "Second Uncle, I..."
The usual courageous Huang Ba was now no different from a timid kid.
Huang Zheng raised a hand, silencing Huang Ba's feeble attempt at an explanation. "Silence!" he commanded, his voice dripping with disdain. "Your actions have brought disgrace upon our valley. To think that you, a direct descendant of the Huang lineage, would be so weak and incompetent. It is truly a disappointment."
Huang Ba's fists clenched tightly at his sides, his nails digging into his palms. He wanted to defend himself, to explain the circumstances, but he knew that any words would be futile. His uncle's judgment was final.
Huang Zheng turned his attention to Yun Lintian, his eyes narrowing slightly. "Young man," he said, his voice slightly softer yet still carrying an undercurrent of authority, "I thank you for saving my nephew's life."
Just as Yun Lintian was about to respond, a tremendous pressure suddenly descended upon his entire being, causing the table and chair around him to shatter into pieces.
"Second uncle!" Huang Ba cried out anxiously. He knew his second uncle's temper very well. Clearly, he wanted to test Yun Lintian's strength.
Yun Lintian raised his brow slightly and waved his hand. Instantly, the surrounding space began to distort, and the pressure dissipated entirely.
"Law of Space?" Huang Zheng's eyes brightened. "You are quite a monster."
Yun Lintian patted the dust off his robe and cupped his fists. "Junior Yun Lintian greets Senior Huang."
He wasn't angry at Huang Zheng in the slightest, as he felt no malice within the latter's attack.
Huang Zheng landed in front of Yun Lintian and said, "I'm a rough man. No need for courtesies here."
He then glanced at Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia. "Oh. You two are here as well."
"Greetings, Second Elder Huang," Gu Bingning and Long Jingxia quickly greeted Huang Zheng. Evidently, they were familiar with this man.
At this moment, two colossal profound arks emerged from the void, one silver and the other pristine white.
Soon, two beautiful women flew out of the profound arks.
"Long time no see, Gu Tongjia, Long Chunmei," Huang Zheng said, revealing his white teeth at the newcomers.
