Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 46: Falling Out

"Yu Yuehai, what are you doing!" 

The five clan leaders were shocked and furious. 

Although they were all old-timers who had established their Foundations, they had just been drained of most of their life force by the anomaly and had no strength to resist. Moreover, they didn't expect Yu Yuehai to suddenly make a move. 

In an instant, they were all subdued. 

It was unclear what method Yu Yuehai used, but it made their minds clear, yet they couldn't move or use their spiritual powers. 

"Hehe, don't worry, fellow Daoists. I just want to ask you to do something for me. I'm afraid you won't be willing, so I had to take this approach." 

Yu Yuehai chuckled. 

He pointed at the small boat beneath his feet, and it suddenly grew larger, more than doubling in size. 

Then, without explaining to Ye Jingyun, he got the five family heads and Zhao Zhengyuan onto the boat, and activated this flying spiritual equipment to soar into the sky.

At this moment, the anomaly was shattered, and a part of the strange demon had been taken away. It had no ability to lower the red line again, and Yu Yuehai flew away without any hindrance.

Along the way, they encountered two demonic beast attacks, but Yu Yuehai easily eliminated them. 

He once again displayed his extraordinary strength. 

Finally, they landed in a mountain valley. 

Chen Lin didn't say a word throughout the journey, only silently observing. He roughly estimated that they were over a hundred miles away from Kaiyuan City. 

As for Yu Yuehai's goal, he couldn't understand it either. 

Ye Jingyun asked twice during the journey, but Yu Yuehai didn't respond. 

In Chen Lin's view, since cutting off the red thread and leaving Kaiyuan City, Yu Yuehai's attitude towards Ye Jingyun had undergone a significant change, although it wasn't hostile, it was far from warm. 

In contrast, the two were extremely close when they were in Kaiyuan City. 

What had caused this change between the two? 

Chen Lin glanced at Ye Jingyun, who seemed to be preparing for something. 

However, Ye Jingyun remained calm, showing no signs of abnormality. 

The flying boat landed on a flat area, and Yu Yuehai made a hand seal, shrinking the boat and putting everyone on the ground. 

"Let's stay here. This place is quite scenic, and it'll reduce the resentment of the five clan leaders." 

Yu Yuehai gazed at the five clan leaders with a treasured look, his voice low and mysterious. 

"Yu Yuehai, what do you want to do? And you, Ye Jingyun, our Han family has treated you well, but you're being too excessive!" 

The five clan leaders all had a bad feeling, and Han Yuhe, who had a good relationship with Ye Jingyun, couldn't help but ask. 

Ye Jingyun, who had been silent until now, finally spoke up, her expression extremely cold. 

"I think my senior brother wants to refine you into the Five Hearts Pill!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Yuehai suddenly turned around and said with a smile on his face. "My junior sister knows about this pill, it seems you've been paying close attention to my actions." 

Ye Jingyun also smiled. 

"Since my senior brother has gone this far, I should be able to figure it out. Refining the Five Hearts Pill requires not only an anomaly as a catalyst but also the true essence of a Golden Core True Person, as well as a high-grade alchemy furnace. Are you certain you can succeed, senior brother?" 

As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Yuehai's face changed slightly. 

But he quickly regained his composure and said, "My junior sister knows a lot about this pill. Don't worry, I have an improved alchemy formula from Elder He, which doesn't require such high standards." 

"It's a pity my junior sister's inheritance is so impressive. I had to spend a lot of effort to understand this pill, and if I had known you knew so much, I wouldn't have had to go through so much trouble."

Yu Yuehai shook his head, looking regretful.

Seeing this, Ye Jingyun sneered and said, "Haha, if you were interested, you could have just told me directly. How can I hide anything from you? But judging from the current situation, you want more than just the inheritance. I am afraid you want my life as well!"

"Ha ha ha, Junior Sister is joking, I've had feelings for you for so many years, how could I possibly harm you? I don't understand what you're saying."

Yu Yuehai laughed, but his face looked unnatural.

Ye Jingyun continued, her expression unchanging, "Senior Brother Yu, you only have one chance, how could you possibly use the unreliable method of alchemy? I think you want to use the Reversal of the Five Elements Blood Refining Technique!"

"You actually know the Reversal of the Five Elements Blood Refining Technique!"

Yu Yuehai's face suddenly changed.

He immediately turned ferocious.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect that even though I hid it so deeply, you still figured it out. It seems like you've never believed in me! But even if you knew, what can you do? Today, none of you can escape. You all have to become stepping stones on my path to the Golden Core!"

After saying this, he coldly looked at Ye Jingyun, "I'm not afraid to tell you, I'm the one who killed your father and took the Heavenly Origin Token. Lu Qingfeng was just a scapegoat, and I've already killed him too. How's that, isn't my method clean and efficient?"

Looking at Ye Jingyun's furious expression, Yu Yuehai's face became even more ferocious, "All of this is because of your family's own doing! I've been serving your family for so many years, and in the end, you want to leave the inheritance to Lu Qingfeng, that idiot? You're treating me like a servant, aren't you? Since your family is unwilling to give it to me, then I have no choice but to take it myself!"

Chen Lin stood on the spot, watching the two of them turn against each other, his heart as cold as ice.

Although he had suspected that Ye Jingyun and Yu Yuehai had a rift, he didn't think it was this deep – this was a blood feud!

But why was Ye Jingyun being so foolish, revealing their internal conflicts at this time?

Did he think Yu Yuehai would repent and change his ways?

Chen Lin didn't know what to say.

According to reason, since they knew Yu Yuehai was their enemy, they should choose a suitable opportunity to launch a sneak attack. But instead, they were openly confronting him – what were they thinking?

Unless…

Unless the five Foundation Establishment experts beside him still had some fighting power left.

Chen Lin looked at the five family heads, his heart growing even colder.

These guys were already scared out of their wits, their faces filled with terror, and they didn't seem to have any intention of fighting back.

He slowly put his hand on his storage bag, although he didn't know what the Five Elements Reversal Blood Refining Technique was, but if there was no chance of survival, he wouldn't let the opponent have it easy.

"Five Elements Reversal Blood Refining Technique? Yu Yuehai, you dare to refine us into such a demonic pill? Do you know the consequences of doing so?"

The Zhang family head finally couldn't hold back, shouting in anger.

"Oh? Daoist Zhang also knows about this pill, it seems this pill isn't as mysterious as rumored!"

Yu Yuehai glanced at the Zhang family patriarch, a little surprised.

The Zhang family head coldly spoke, "It seems that Daoist Yu came to Kaiyuan City not by chance, but specifically for us!"

"However, although the Five Elements Reversal Blood Refining Technique can increase one's lifespan, but using it will incur heavenly punishment, which is the same as committing suicide. Daoist Yu, you're still young and have already achieved Foundation Establishment, why would you take such a dangerous path?"
