Chapter 252 Reunion with Lin Yuanyuan

The cultivators who had their belongings stolen surrounded Li Xiaoyao in anger and extended their hands, saying, "Hand it over!"

"Hand it over!"

"Hand it over!"

There were at least a dozen cultivators who had their things stolen. At that moment, they glared at Li Xiaoyao with fury, showing signs of aggression if their demands were not met.

Wei Ziwen stepped forward and said, "You are the disgrace of the cultivators!"

"Disgrace!"

"Scum!"

Just then, Lin Yuanyuan and Lin Shiyun, who were approaching from not too far away, heard the commotion and looked over.

Lin Shiyun's Xiubrow furrowed slightly, "What's happening over there?"

Lin Yuanyuan, who loved a good spectacle, said excitedly, "Shiyun sister, let's go have a look."

Lin Shiyun shook her head helplessly and said, "Alright, but you must stay by my side later, do not wander off, nor speak impulsively. You must understand, these cultivators and martial artists are not ordinary people; few of them adhere to the rules of mortals."

Lin Yuanyuan nodded repeatedly, shaking her hand, "I know, I got it, you've said it several times already."

Having no alternative, Lin Shiyun led her over.

As they drew closer, Lin Yuanyuan immediately spotted Li Xiaoyao, who was encircled by the crowd.

"It's that dog of a servant!" Lin Yuanyuan's face changed, and she was about to rush forward, but Lin Shiyun swiftly extended her hand to hold her back.

"Yuanyuan, don't be rash," Lin Shiyun said with a frown, feeling a silent irritation.

Li Xiaoyao really had a knack for trouble. She had only left him alone for a short while, and he had already offended a group of cultivators.

"But he's in danger right now," Lin Yuanyuan protested. Despite calling him a dog of a servant, she was genuinely worried about Li Xiaoyao.

Although Lin Shiyun did not want to be involved with Li Xiaoyao in any way, seeing her cousin's concern, she knew she had no choice but to help, regardless of her unwillingness.

"Honored fellow Daoist, may I ask what happened there?" Lin Shiyun asked a man standing nearby.

The man immediately explained the situation.

After hearing the details, Lin Shiyun's frown deepened, and she looked at Lin Yuanyuan, "Your friend seems to lack integrity. Yuanyuan, it's better that you don't associate with him anymore."

Lin Yuanyuan shook her head, "I don't believe it. He's not that kind of person; he would never steal."

Lin Shiyun said, "Yuanyuan, how long have you known him? Are you familiar with him? It's said that one may know a person's face but not their heart. How can you be sure of what sort of person he really is?"

Lin Yuanyuan's eyes turned red with anxiety, as she tugged at Lin Shiyun's arm, "Shiyun sister, please help him, I beg you."

Lin Shiyun let out a sigh, "Yuanyuan, I promise you, I will help him, but this is the last time. And after this, you must not meet him again. If you agree to this, I will help him."

Lin Yuanyuan felt torn, but as she glanced at Li Xiaoyao surrounded by the angry crowd, she finally gritted her teeth, "I agree."

Lin Shiyun nodded, took a few steps forward, and asked in a soft voice, "You say he stole from you, is there any evidence?"

The crowd looked over to the sound of her voice and saw a beautiful young lady speaking; they were immediately captivated.

"Miss, all of our belongings have gone missing, and prior to their disappearance, he was the only one who had seen them. Tell me, if not he who stole them, who else could it be?"

Li Xiaoyao was surprised to see Lin Shiyun reappear and then noticed the familiar figure behind her; he couldn't help but feel slightly stunned.

He immediately guessed that it must have been because Lin Yuanyuan had asked for help that Lin Shiyun had intervened.

However, Li Xiaoyao was not the kind of man to rely on women; such a minor issue was nothing more than a flick of his fingers.

Wei Ziwen saw Lin Shiyun appear again, snorted, and said, "Miss Lin, if this guy doesn't hand over my Blood Lotus Flower today, don't blame me for being rude to him!"

"Blood Lotus Flower?" Lin Shiyun did know that the price of a Blood Lotus Flower in the market had reached tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.

Thinking of this, Lin Shiyun felt even more displeased with Li Xiaoyao.

Lin Shiyun looked at Li Xiaoyao and frowned, "If you really took their things, then take them out and return them. I assure you, as long as you hand them over, they absolutely will not lay a hand on you."

"Hmph, Miss Lin, aren't you a bit too confident?" Wei Ziwen said, "Since he dared to steal from Wei Ziwen, it's not as simple as just returning the item."

"What do you want?"

Wei Ziwen stretched out a hand and said, "One hundred thousand Spirit Stones. He has to not only hand over the Blood Lotus Flower but also pay an additional one hundred thousand Spirit Stones, and then I will let him go."

Other people who had lost things also chimed in one after another, "If he stole my things, even if he hands them over, he still has to compensate me with thirty thousand Spirit Stones."

Hearing these people ask for prices as if they were the king of the beasts, even Lin Shiyun felt overwhelmed at this moment.

In the Cultivation World, Spirit Stones are the universal currency.

But even Lin Shiyun could only receive a few thousand Spirit Stones each month from her family.

Now, these people were asking for tens of thousands of Spirit Stones straight away. Even if Lin Shiyun wanted to help Li Xiaoyao, she couldn't.

"Playing this kind of trick in front of me, thinking I, Li Xiaoyao, am an idiot?" Li Xiaoyao chuckled coldly, snorted angrily, and a violent aura burst forth from his body, causing several nearby Cultivators to be pushed back several steps.

"You actually dare to attack!"

"Let's join forces and subdue this man!"

Just as this group of people was about to swarm up, Li Xiaoyao took a step out and opened his mouth to shout lightly: "Enough!"

This shout, issued from the Dantian and wrapped in Spiritual Energy, exploded like thunder in everyone's ears.

Some of those with lower Cultivation Levels were so shaken by the force of the sound wave that they could not stand steady on their feet and fell to the ground, rear first.

The crowd looked at Li Xiaoyao with shock and amazement in their eyes.

Wei Ziwen was also incredulous. Just a word from Li Xiaoyao had made his own head dizzy and his brain swell.

"How is that possible? Is his Cultivation Level stronger than mine?"

Li Xiaoyao didn't give Wei Ziwen too much time to think as he began to walk towards him.

"I spared you once, but you didn't cherish the opportunity," Li Xiaoyao said indifferently, raising his hand and reaching for his neck.

Wei Ziwen felt his entire body's hair stand on end, trying to dodge, but found to his terror that there was no escaping Li Xiaoyao's move.

Li Xiaoyao accurately grabbed his neck and slowly lifted his body off the ground.

Lin Shiyun's pupils contracted almost instantaneously as she stared at Li Xiaoyao in disbelief.

This man, who she thought didn't have a trace of Spiritual Energy, had subdued Wei Ziwen so easily.

Could it be that his Cultivation Level was even stronger than her own?

Li Xiaoyao looked at Wei Ziwen coldly and said, "If you want to live, tell the truth."

Wei Ziwen's lips parted slightly, ready to argue, but then he heard Li Xiaoyao continue, "Don't test my patience. Lying will only cause you to lose your life in vain."

Wei Ziwen shivered and said, "I'll talk, I'll talk."
