Chapter 130: 129. Brought a girl back to the sect (5th update, seeking first subscription)
Qingfeng Street.
Yang Lele had escaped from the room early, found a secluded corner of an alley, and stared at the street, waiting for Yang Xi to appear. It didn’t take long before she saw Yang Xi carrying a bundle, walking aimlessly in her direction.
Yang Lele quickly ran out of the alley, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into the alley.
"Who!"
"It’s me, Yang Lele!"
"Why are you grabbing me like this, it hurts! Don’t you know you’re in the Body Refining Seventh Layer?"
"Alright, my bad. Go and buy a carriage, and I’ll take you away right now."
Yang Xi nodded and had just turned around when she came back again, "Lele, who else is in that sect?"
"Plenty of people. When you meet them, you’ll be shocked."
Yang Lele giggled and thought to herself: Two people in the Profound Realm, you’ll be scared to death.
...
Half a stick of incense later, Yang Lele drove the carriage towards Yunlan Mountain, while Yang Xi sat inside, excitedly lifting the curtain to watch outside.
However, as they moved closer to the outskirts of Cangwu City, reaching outside Qingshui Street, Yang Xi’s expression changed, "Lele, are you going out of the city?"
"Taking you to the sect."
"It’s outside the city?"
"Right on the edge, at the Immortal Sect."
"Immortal Sect!" Yang Xi exclaimed, grabbed the reins, and forced the carriage to a stop, then rudely scolded, "You tricked me, you’re a little dog."
"What did I trick you about?"
"Grandfather won’t let you go to the Immortal Sect, and you tricked me into coming here. I’m going back." Yang Xi said and was about to get off the carriage.
Yang Lele wasn’t anxious at all and said, "Do as you please, whether you go or not. Just continue like your grandfather, be an antique, and watch the Yang Family gradually decline."
After saying that, Yang Lele jumped off the carriage, clearing the way for Yang Xi to get off.
Just as Yang Lele jumped off the carriage, the Hundred Sects Alliance and Kao Shan Sect people from Qingshui Street’s teahouse rushed out immediately, angrily yelling, "Move the carriage away; you’re obviously not from Qingshui Street, no passage allowed here!"
Yang Lele glanced at the two approaching and coldly asked, "Since when did Qingshui Street become yours?"
The Kao Shan Sect disciple in black clothes rolled up his sleeves immediately and said, "Hey, if I say you can’t pass, you can’t pass, what’s with all the talking! Say one more word and I’ll punch you to death, believe it?"
"Well, I just want to pass!"
"Kid, seeking death!"
The Kao Shan Sect disciple reached out and tried to grab Yang Lele.
Another person from the Hundred Sects Alliance stood aside, enjoying the show, his eyes falling on the gorgeous and delicate Yang Xi, his brow furrowed suddenly, feeling a sense of familiarity. But he quickly shook his head, cutting off his thoughts, and continued to watch Yang Xi with "righteous" eyes.
"Miss..."
Just as the words came to his lips, he saw someone beside him suddenly fly away.
He turned his head and saw his companion had been kicked away.
Looking at Yang Lele, he realized the opponent was also in the Body Refining Seventh Layer!
"Good kid!"
After angrily yelling, he prepared to act.
However, his leg had just lifted when a fist slammed into his chest. Before he could understand what happened, he was already sent flying backward.
After dealing with the two, Yang Lele casually dusted off his hands and said, "Weaklings in the Body Refining Seventh Layer dare to block me!"
Yang Xi watched this scene, her face filled with shock.
Her gaze at Yang Lele was now different.
She originally thought Yang Lele had only reached the Body Refining Seventh Layer, advancing seven realms in a year, surely his overall power couldn’t keep up.
But the reality was that Yang Lele was not only in the Body Refining Seventh Layer, but when fighting with people in the same realm, it was a one-punch knockout, completely overwhelming.
With such talent, if he joined a Two-star Giant Level sect outside, they’d surely cultivate him as a seed disciple?
But Yang Lele insisted on returning to the Immortal Sect!
Even at the cost of defying his family.
While still in shock, seeing Yang Lele preparing to leave, she immediately shouted, "Lele, wait for me, I’m going too!"
Just then, voices called from behind, "Yang Lele, stop!"
Both turned back.
They saw two people suddenly leap out from a tavern at the corner, both in the Body Refining Thirteenth Layer.
One from the Hundred Sects Alliance, a steward, the other from the Kao Shan Sect, Li Yue.
Yang Xi’s expression changed immediately, and she said to Yang Lele, "What should we do?"
"Run!"
Yang Lele replied, pulling Yang Xi’s hand as they sprinted down Qingshui Street.
As they fled, angry shouts followed, "Yang Lele, I’ll kill you for tricking Yang Xi here!"
Yang Lele paused, then asked Yang Xi beside him, "They know you?"
"Yes, both have visited my house."
"Alright, I’m snatching someone right in front of two Body Refining Thirteenth Layers."
Yang Lele smirked wryly, quickly quickened his pace, the intent to kill from the two Thirteenth Layers looming in his mind, cold sweat dripping down his back.
Just when he was about to weave through alleys to evade them, a white shield suddenly enveloped him, and he heard a clanging sound from behind.
A dagger fell to the ground behind him.
Although Yang Lele didn’t understand how the shield worked, he realized it just saved his life.
If it weren’t for the shield, that dagger would surely have pierced his back, a Thirteenth Layer’s fatal strike enough to kill him!
These Thirteenth Layers are truly ruthless!
"Follow me!"
Yang Lele immediately pulled Yang Xi into the alley, but looking back, he saw the alley had two people in pursuit.
"This way!"
"Here!"
"Follow my lead!"
Yang Lele dragged Yang Xi as they threaded through the alleys, constantly heading towards the foot of Yunlan Mountain.
Nonetheless, the pursuit was getting closer.
Although the alley restricted the speed of the Thirteenth Layers, it didn’t affect their perception; catching up was only a matter of time.
Yang Xi said, "Lele, why don’t you run quickly, I’ll stay and hold them off. They won’t harm me."
"No way, since I brought you out, I’ll definitely take you to the Immortal Sect. Joining the Hundred Sects Alliance or Kao Shan Sect would only stifle your talent!"
Yang Lele responded resolutely.
As soon as he finished speaking, the pursuing footsteps were within reach!
At the crossroads of the alley, Yang Lele and Yang Xi stood in the middle, with a Body Refining Thirteenth Layer on each side.
Backwards was the way to escape.
Moving forward, although it led towards Yunlan Mountain, it also meant that in the narrow alley, the two Thirteenth Layer cultivators could catch him in an instant.
Chances were, the pursuing Thirteenth Layers would directly kill him.
Because they had already attempted to do so.
"Yang Xi, come back with us."
Both spoke in unison.
Yang Xi shook her head, pushed Yang Lele with one hand, hinting him to leave quickly, then grasped both sides of the alley, "Li Yue senior, please spare Lele, I’ll go back with you."
