Fantasy: Reject the Supreme Bone at the Beginning

175: Heading to the Sect’s Treasury”Alright, I have something else to do, so I’ll be leaving now and will be back soon,” Lin Xiao said with a smile as he took the token.

”Okay, as long as you can make it to the summary meeting after the competition, that’s fine; there are no other requirements,” the Azure Emperor Sect Elder said, nodding his head after hearing Lin Xiao’s words, expressing no objections.

Because generally speaking.

The Azure Emperor Sect is very lenient towards Prodigies like Lin Xiao, who have both background and Aptitude.

As long as they don’t commit any major mistakes, the high-ranking members of the Azure Emperor Sect generally won’t interfere, letting them act as they please.

”Hehe, it’s just a moment; of course, I’ll make it,” Lin Xiao said with a smile.

After speaking, he flew to where Li Qingyu was currently located, in front of everyone’s watchful eyes, then picked up Li Qingyu and flew away.

Witnessing this scene, countless Disciples of the Azure Emperor Sect were all bewildered.

”Ah, this... Young Master Lin Xiao is leaving already? Is he not participating in the upcoming competition?”

”What’s there to compete for? Didn’t you witness Young Master Lin Xiao’s strength just now? Is there anyone among the eighteen people present who is Young Master Lin Xiao’s opponent?”

”Yes, not to mention the Elders, even I want Young Master Lin Xiao to leave quickly.”

”Why? Do you have a grudge against Young Master Lin Xiao?”

”Why so many questions? Can’t you see for yourself? Young Master Lin Xiao nearly demolished half of the Azure Emperor Sect’s Outer Sect in one competition; if he were to stay, I’m afraid the entire Outer Sect would be gone before long.”

Countless Azure Emperor Sect Disciples discussed animatedly, looking at the ruins of the Azure Emperor Sect’s Outer Sect at that moment, and couldn’t help but collectively gasp.

”Is this Young Master Lin Xiao’s strength? It’s simply too powerful,” many Azure Emperor Sect Disciples thought to themselves.

Due to the severe damage to the entire Outer Sect, the training ground of the Azure Emperor Sect’s Outer Sect was certainly unusable for further competitions.

Therefore, for the sake of the competition’s normal continuation, these countless new Azure Emperor Sect Disciples rushed towards the Inner Sect’s training ground.

And with this large-scale movement of people, Lin Xiao’s reputation was thoroughly established within the Azure Emperor Sect.

Whether it was an Outer Sect Disciple, an Inner Sect Disciple, or even a Core Disciple.

Whenever Lin Xiao was mentioned, they would invariably say, ”Isn’t that the ruthless person who shattered half of the Outer Sect with a single move?”

After flying away from the already shattered Outer Sect.

Lin Xiao took Li Qingyu to a relatively flat area and slowly descended.

”Brother Lin Xiao, where are we going?”

After landing, Li Qingyu couldn’t help but ask Lin Xiao, a hint of doubt appearing on his face.

”Hehe, we’re going back to the Inner Sect Hall of Enforcement first to sort out some matters,” Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Since his competition was over, it was time to put Lu Ming’s matter on the agenda; after all, dragging it on indefinitely was not a solution.

With that, Lin Xiao walked towards the Azure Emperor Sect’s Inner Sect.

And Li Qingyu, naturally, followed closely behind.

After walking for not long, the two quickly arrived at the Prison Cell of the Hall of Law Enforcement in the Inner Sect.

”Greetings, Elder Lin Xiao!”

”Greetings, Elder Lin Xiao!”

”Greetings, Elder Lin Xiao!”

As soon as Lin Xiao appeared, the guards in the Prison Cell immediately greeted him respectfully.

Their eyes were filled with fervent admiration, as if Lin Xiao were their only god.

”You may all rise,” Lin Xiao said indifferently.

Then he looked towards Lu Ming’s cell not far away and said:

”Go and release Lu Ming; this Elder’s task is complete, and it’s time to resolve some unjust cases within the Sect.”

”As you command, Elder Lin,” the Disciples of the Prison Cell respectfully nodded after hearing Lin Xiao’s words.

Then they quickly walked to Lu Ming’s cell and opened the cell door.

As soon as the cell door opened, Lu Ming quickly walked out from inside.

”Hehe, Elder Lin Xiao, have you finished your competition?” Lu Ming asked with a smile.

He looked at Lin Xiao with great anticipation; he did the same things and saw the same things every day, feeling like he was going crazy.

If Lin Xiao didn’t get him out, he might even have the urge to escape from prison.

”It’s already finished; I just need to go through the motions later,” Lin Xiao said truthfully.

As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Ming’s heart instantly bloomed with joy.

”Since the competition is over, then my matter...” Lu Ming began.

But before he could finish speaking, Lin Xiao’s voice quickly rang out.

”Don’t worry, I’m here at the Prison Cell now precisely to resolve your matter,” Lin Xiao said with a smile.

”Really? Thank you so much!” Lu Ming said with a look of disbelief.

He hadn’t expected that the day of his liberation would finally arrive.

”Of course, it’s true; I, Lin Xiao, never lie.”

”However, this is just the beginning; it will still take some time to fully resolve your matter,” Lin Xiao said.

”Elder Lin Xiao, don’t worry about that; I’m not in a hurry,” Lu Ming quickly said after hearing Lin Xiao’s words.

He was afraid of neglecting Lin Xiao’s matter and displeasing him.

”Hehe, it’s good that you’re not in a hurry; if you’re not, then follow me to the Azure Emperor Sect Treasure Vault first,” Lin Xiao said with a smile.

Since he was going to the Azure Emperor Sect Core Disciple area, he would inevitably have to pass through the Azure Emperor Sect’s Sect Treasury.

In that case, he could also claim the prize he won from the competition.

”Azure Emperor Sect Treasure Vault? What are we going there for?”

”That’s a Sect Forbidden Ground; we can’t get in.”

However, after hearing Lin Xiao’s words, Lu Ming, who didn’t know the full story, was a bit confused.

After all, as a well-known Inner Sect Disciple of the Azure Emperor Sect, Lu Ming had some understanding of most places within the Azure Emperor Sect.

Within the Azure Emperor Sect, there were many Forbidden Grounds, such as the Sect Treasury, the Ancient Medicine Garden, and many other places.

These places housed the Sect’s Legacy, so ordinary Azure Emperor Sect Disciples generally couldn’t enter, and there were special guards every day.

To enter, one had to have a special token.

After hearing Lu Ming’s words, Lin Xiao was about to speak.

But before Lin Xiao could say anything, Li Qingyu spoke first.

”Brother Lin Xiao is the first place winner of this competition; Heavenly Saint King rewarded the first place winner of this competition with one opportunity to enter the Sect Treasury,” Li Qingyu said with a smile.

His face was full of excitement, as if he were the one entering the Sect Treasury.

However, compared to Li Qingyu, Lu Ming, who heard Li Qingyu’s words, was clearly a bit bewildered.

”Wh-what? You mean the first place winner of this year’s Disciple Challenge Competition gets to take one item from the Sect Treasury?” Lu Ming said, his face full of disbelief.

”Of course, besides that, there’s also a qualification to enter the Emperor Weapon Pool,” Li Qingyu added with a smile.

After hearing Li Qingyu’s words, Lu Ming looked at Lin Xiao, and seeing that Lin Xiao didn’t refute, the matter was settled.

Thus, his heart quickly churned, and he couldn’t help but exclaim:

”It truly lives up to its name as the Golden Great Age.”
