Chapter 60: Shameless

Liu Quan and the others couldn’t help but feel angry; before, Yuan Hui had left without caring about their lives, and if it was because the Rampage Fire Ape was too powerful and staying would mean death, it could be understood, since not everyone needed to die here.

But now, when Yuan Hui appeared, the first thing he said was, "You didn’t die?" From his expression, it was clear that Yuan Hui had expected everyone to be dead, and there was no sadness on his face, only deep shock.

This reaction undoubtedly struck Liu Quan and the others hard.

In their hearts, they had always seen Yuan Hui as an idol, like a big brother they admired and followed.

So when Yuan Hui invited them to join the mission, they didn’t hesitate to agree.

But today, Yuan Hui’s behavior truly hurt everyone’s feelings, and the friendly big brother image they had of him fell apart.

Yuan Hui clearly realized his awkwardness and quickly changed his expression, smiling as he said, "Junior Martial Brother Liu Quan, what are you saying? It’s wonderful that you are all alive. I was just worried about you, that’s why I came back to check."

Yuan Hui spoke seriously, but the insincerity in his eyes was clear to everyone, as he occasionally glanced at the tree that no longer had any Blood Dragon Fruit.

"You are worried about Blood Dragon Fruit, aren’t you?"

A voice came from the cave entrance, and Yun Yi walked over with one hand behind his back, step by step.

Yun Yi understood very well why Yuan Hui had returned; he clearly sensed the calm in the valley and came back quietly to check. As for worrying about everyone’s safety, that was probably just a joke.

In Yuan Hui’s heart, when he used the Whirlwind Talisman to escape, he must have already decided that everyone would surely die.

Upon seeing Yun Yi, Yuan Hui’s expression instantly turned cold, "Kid, who do you think you are to talk to me like that?"

Yuan Hui might have felt a little uneasy about fleeing from the Yanwu family’s disciples, so his tone was a bit softer, but he wasn’t so polite towards Yun Yi.

Yuan Hui would not think highly of Yun Yi at all; to him, Yun Yi was just a second grade of the Innate Realm fighter who appeared out of nowhere.

Now that Yun Yi stepped forward, Yuan Hui turned his embarrassment into anger directed at Yun Yi.

"Senior Brother Yuan, if it weren’t for Yun Yi, we would all be dead by now."

Liu Quan quickly spoke.

"That’s right, it was Yun Yi who killed the Rampage Fire Ape and saved us."

Huang Long added.

"What?"

Yuan Hui exclaimed, doubting if he had heard correctly, but when he saw Liu Quan and the others’ serious expressions, he realized they were not lying. Then, he glanced at the dead Rampage Fire Ape nearby, and ultimately, Yuan Hui’s shocked gaze fell on Yun Yi once again.

"Impossible, that cannot be! A mere second grade of the Innate Realm could never kill the Rampage Fire Ape; it must have been an accident."

Yuan Hui did not witness the battle in the valley with his own eyes, so he would never believe it was true.

No one knew better than him how powerful the Rampage Fire Ape was. He had fought against it before, and even with his fifth grade of the Innate Realm strength, he was no match for the Rampage Fire Ape.

"A worthless creature like that has the nerve to shout in front of me."

Yun Yi snorted; his first impression of Yuan Hui was not good. This guy had just insulted him, so Yun Yi would definitely not be polite.

"What did you say, kid?"

Yuan Hui was furious. With his status, not many people in the Yanwu family would dare to speak to him like that.

"I said you are trash."

Yun Yi repeated, emphasizing the word "trash" strongly.

"You are asking for death."

Yuan Hui was enraged, and a golden sword appeared in his hand with a whoosh.

Boom…

The moment his golden sword appeared, an incredibly strong spiritual power burst out from Yun Yi’s body.

Just as Yuan Hui stepped forward, his face changed dramatically, and he exclaimed again, "Third grade of the Innate Realm."

"Oh my! Yun Yi actually advanced in such a short time. This speed is unbelievable!"

"Could it be that he has completely refined a Blood Dragon Fruit? How can his advancement be so fast?"

"What a genius! To rise two levels in one day."

……

Liu Quan and the others also showed signs of shock again. When Yun Yi came out of the cave, he had concealed his aura, so they did not notice the change in his strength. Now that Yun Yi released his spiritual power, they clearly saw how strong he had become, and they couldn’t help but be astonished.

Especially Huang Long, who was the most shocked. Yun Yi was only at the first grade of the Innate Realm when he first defeated the Iron Spotted Tiger. To advance two levels in one day is something anyone would find hard to accept.

"Yuan Hui, it’s best to think carefully before you act."

Yun Yi’s gaze was intense, radiating a deadly intent, and his overwhelming kingly aura was evident, causing Yuan Hui to instinctively take a step back.

By this time, Yuan Hui had to believe that the Rampage Fire Ape was truly killed by Yun Yi. If someone could defeat the Rampage Fire Ape, it meant that he was definitely not a match for Yun Yi.

"Brother Yun, Senior Brother Yuan, we are all friends fighting together, so let’s not damage our friendship."

Huang Long quickly stepped in to smooth things over. He could see that Yun Yi was definitely not someone to be messed with. If angered, it didn’t matter who the other person was; he might still attack.

If Yuan Hui and Yun Yi clashed directly, the outcome would probably not be good. But if Yun Yi injured Yuan Hui, it would be very difficult for him to move around Xuanzhou State later, as Yuan Hui had a certain amount of power and influence in the Yanwu family.

So Huang Long stepped forward to mediate for Yun Yi’s sake.

"Haha."

Suddenly, Yuan Hui started to laugh. He slowly sheathed his sword and immediately changed his demeanor, becoming friendly toward Yun Yi.

However, this kind of two-faced smile made Yun Yi even more disgusted.

"Huang Long is right. We are all on the same side, so why hurt our friendship? Yun Yi, you have amazing strength and talent. If you could join the Yanwu family for training, your future achievements would be limitless."

Yuan Hui said, "So, if you give me the Blood Dragon Fruit and the Demon Spirit of the Rampage Fire Ape, I promise to let you join the Yanwu family. How about that? This kind of opportunity does not come often, and I hope you will cherish it."

Upon hearing this, Liu Quan and the others immediately looked at Yun Yi, clearly hoping that Yun Yi would join the Yanwu family. After all, a talent like this is very rare, and with Yuan Hui’s position and methods, it would be easy for him to bring Yun Yi into the Yanwu family.

However, Liu Quan and the others also knew that getting Yun Yi to give up the Blood Dragon Fruit would likely be unrealistic.
