Among the numerous elders of the Spirit Stream Sect, there were four Nascent Soul ancestors. The highest among them was their patriarch Shui An who was at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
They were the only cultivators in the country to reach the Nascent Soul realm. Countless people dreamed of achieving their cultivation base and achieve the same amount of respect.
If someone told them that the number one sect of their country was being extorted by a demonic cultivator, very few would believe.
Moreover, the extortion didn't just happen once or twice…
No wonder they immediately recognised him after the "attack".
One of the elders couldn't take it anymore and without waiting for others, he unsheathed a pale blue sword strapped on his back and slashed towards Yun Dingxing. The sword energy turned into an water blue arc that took the form of a long river and shot towards Yun Dingxing.
"Nonsense! Being stronger than you, I have every right to act this way!"
While speaking, Yun Dingxing didn't even spare them a glance. Yet as his words echoed out, all the elders who were flying towards him froze in mid-air.
It was as if the space around them had become solid. Even the river formed by sword energy stopped before it could reach him.
"As for destroying the Long clan, what does it have to do with me? You can't afford to provoke me, but can you afford to provoke my wife?"
His sarcastic reply sent shivers down their spine. It was just like Yun Dingxing said, they couldn't afford to any of them. In fact, provoking Long Qianmei was the same as asking for sect annihilation!
The people from Brightmoon Country and nearby rank three countries might not know about her, but her name was a synonym to death for all Nascent Soul cultivators!
Although all of them wished to bite Yun Dingxing to death, none of them could do anything. In the end, they concentrated all of their anger on the elder who had attacked.
Feeling their gazes, the man's heart was filled with bitterness and he wanted to explain himself. Alas, the spatial restriction around him didn't let him move a single muscle.
Yun Dingxing had lost his patience by now. With a cold snort, he clenched his claws in front of them.
A strange sound of shattering glass rang out, following which small cracks started to appear in front of the elders. While at first confused, all of them soon understood the nature of the cracks. It was spatial laws!
Despair filled their eyes as they saw the cracks slowly coming towards them. But no matter how much they struggled, they couldn't break free of the restriction.
"Mercy, senior Yun! Mercy! It was this old man's fault for being late, please don't take it to heart! Qian Chen, quickly gets down and apologize to senior, do you want our sect to be destroyed?!!"
An old man hastily flew out from inside the sect. His white hair, eyebrows and long beard gave him the look of a kind grandpa. Tianlong could feel that the man was much stronger than the elders.
Qian Chen felt his mind rumbling when the sect master asked him to apologize. As a prideful Nascent Soul old ancestor, he couldn't bow down his head to some demonic cultivator. Unfortunately, even if he wanted to apologize, he couldn't do it due to the restriction.
"Hmph, I don't have time for your nonsense! You know the old rule. Now quickly hand over half of your spirit stones!"
"Haha, I already knew you were going to say that! I had already started preparing it after sensing your presence, that's why it took me so long to greet you!" With a smile on his face, he reached for his spatial pouch but found that it was missing from his waist.
Yun Dingxing had already stolen it from him through some unknown means…
"I also want all of your Sublime Blood Elixir!"
"What, Sublime Blood Elixir? Absolutely not! Creating one drop of that medicine requires a Nascent Soul cultivator to sacrifice their blood essence. Without it, how can the core disciples-"
"Give it to him!" The patriarch stopped the elder who was refuting Yun Dingxing.
Under his order, everyone becomes quiet. While others gnashed their teeth while looking at their precious blood medicine being taken away, the patriarch had a smile on his face.
"Good, that is how it should be! Shui An, your external appearance does match your wisdom. Too bad you can't seem to able to satisfy your wife. When I kidnapped her 50 years ago…" Nodding his head in approval, Yun Dingxing kept all the possession and took flight again, leaving behind words that only Tianlong and the patriarch could hear.
"Yun Dingxing, you evil bastard!!!" Under the intense humiliation, the patriarch could no longer maintain his calm and his face twisted in fury.
Thinking how his beautiful wife would sometimes sigh out Yun Dingxing's name, he spat a mouthful of blood and fell unconscious.
…
Rank four cultivation country, Lion's Roar country.
"What? Thirty-six Golden Frost Pill? Impossible! Each of the pills requires us to condense gold essence for an entire year!" A fierce middle-aged man with golden hair roared at Yun Dingxing.
"I don't want to hear excuses! Give me the pills or I'll flatten your sect!"
"This – This is daylight robbery!"
"Incorrect! This is a nighttime robbery!"
Just when the man was about to say something, a beautiful golden-haired woman made her appearance.
"Big Brother Dingxin, why are you making things hard for us?" Although her real age was way over a century, she didn't look more than twenty, even her voice sounded like a young woman's.
Yun Dingxing's gaze aloof gaze softened upon seeing her. Heaving a sigh, he continued "Jin'er, I didn't want to do this either. It's just that I have an urgent need of those pills…"
"Hmph! As if we would believe you. Also, how dare you address my wife as Jin'er?" The man's eyes became blood red and he showed signs of changing into a Lion.
"Dear, stop it. If big brother Dingxing says it's important, then it's important." The woman lightly reprimanded.
The man stopped his demonic transformation and lowered his head. While looking at the woman, his eyes were only filled with love, he looked more like a domestic cat than a proud golden Lion. But as soon as his gaze shifted to Yun Dingxing, it became even more venomous than before.
"Little Jin'er, don't worry I will repay you in the future." After receiving the pills, Yun Dingxing left the place with a bittersweet sigh.
…
Rank four cultivation country of Qi, Alchemist's alliance.
…
Rank four cultivation country of Wealth, Merchant's association.
…
Rank four cultivation country of Zhao, Heavenly Cloud company.
…
Similar scenes played around in many nearby countries. Wherever Yun Dingxing went, he would leave behind a group of people cursing out his name amidst destroyed buildings.
Among them, there would be always one or two beautiful women, married or unmarried who would look at him with bitter resentment or complicated emotions…
Fortunately, under the veil of wind spiritual energy, Tianlong was hidden from their view.
Currently, he had an excited expression on his face, as he saw all the different spatial pouches and rings in his hands. Each of them was loaded with valuable spiritual items.
Counting all the spirit stones, he saw that they had a total of four million low-grade spirit stones and twenty thousand mid-grade spirit stones.
Each of the mid-grade spirit stones had almost ten times the energy as compared to an ordinary low-grade spirit stone. The energy contained within them was tens of times purer than in the low-grade spirit stones. But in reality, they were far more valuable than ten low-grade spirit stones.
What excited him even more, were the different medicinal herbs and spiritual pills. With the twenty vials of Sublime Blood medicine, one could cultivate the Blood Surging with ease.
The thirty-six Golden Frost pills were each filled with thick metallic essence which was extremely beneficial for those in Diamond Carapace or Bone Sigil realm. He basically had all the resources necessary to cultivate till the Bone Sigil realm!
Moreover, there were formation disks, spirit fruits, pill recipes and other magical items that were required by cultivators. Even if one solely considered the values of the bags of holdings and interspatial rings, it would be tens of thousands of spirit stones!
Even while flying, Yun Dingxing had his senses locked on his son. Seeing his sparkling eyes, he couldn't help but laugh. "Heh, with the amount of wealth you have, you can recreate ten Long Clans by yourself! Also, this is just the beginning!"
Tianlong's eyes sparkled as he counted the spirit stones again and again. Looking at their glitter, he almost forgot all the different women his father had an affair with, well almost.
"Dad, why do I feel like you are specifically going to those places where you had a past affair? Taking me out was just an excuse wasn't it?"
"Bullshit! Do you think I would value you lesser than some random women with whom I had relationships countless decades ago?" Yun Dingxing asked angrily.
Tianlong didn't say anything but instead looked at him with an evil smile on his face that unsettled the old demon.
"What's with that look?!" Yun Dingxing finally couldn't bear that gaze. "But let me tell you, I haven't touched any other woman ever since I got into a relationship with Qianmei! I'm a faithful man who only has her in my heart!"
His words were spoken with so many emotions that anyone else would've believed him. As for Tianlong, he just sneered and responded in a casual tone, "Even ghosts wouldn't believe you! If not for your fear for her, you would've surely married god knows how many other women!"
Yun Dingxing finally couldn't take it anymore. "Hmph, do you think marriage is a child's play? I may have slept with countless women, but I have never loved any of them! Only Qianmei and Qianmei alone entered my heart!"
"…"
Unexpectedly, Tianlong didn't refute him this time. Instead, he started to rethink his own relationship with Qingxue.
As far he understood, she had more or less romantic feelings for him. However, did he feel the same about her?
No. She was still his best friend with whom he shared his childhood.
As for hundreds of times they slept with each other, it was just pure sexual attraction. There weren't any romantic feelings involved.
"If one day she finds someone who actually loves her…"
While he didn't feel any romantic feelings towards her, it was impossible for him to not have any attachments…
As the faces of all the men who were roaring Yun Dingxing's name flashed before his eyes, his complicated feelings turned into sudden enlightenment. His eyes shone with an evil glint as his lips curled up in a wolfish smile.
Seeing that smile, Yun Dingxing felt a bit of helplessness.
"What is the little bastard thinking? His mother already twisted his view on relationships, I don't want it to get worse!"
With a cold harrumph, he changed his direction and headed westwards. After taking the interspatial ring of the border guard, he entered another rank four country. However, he didn't stop looting their sect, but passed by them and entered another country.
After crossing three similar ranked countries, Yun Dingxing finally came to a halt.
