Chapter 108: Unparalleled Generous Task Rewards【Happy National Day~】_3
However, Lu Yi then thought that there were, after all, thirteen Nascent Soul Cultivators and one Divinity Transformation Cultivator behind them.
Killing them was the only way to complete the task, so it was only natural that the reward was substantial.
Lu Yi accepted the task without a second word.
Done.
Liu Ningshuang saw the change in Lu Yi's expression and slightly frowned, "Junior Brother? What's wrong?"
Lu Yi came back to his senses and smiled, "Senior Sister, we can kill them."
Hearing this, Liu Ningshuang was taken aback and looked at Lu Yi, her clear and cold face filled with astonishment, "Kill them?"
Lu Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, together, we can kill them all."
Liu Ningshuang frowned, her expression hard to remain calm, "Junior Brother, are you serious? Do you know how powerful a Divinity Transformation cultivator is?"
Lu Yi nodded, "I am confident, even if we can't kill them, we can still escape."
As he spoke, Lu Yi thought of something. He looked at Liu Ningshuang and smiled, "Senior Sister, I have a gift for you."
Liu Ningshuang's thoughts were still on killing the Divinity Transformation cultivator. Hearing this, she instinctively asked, "What gift?"
Lu Yi smiled and took out a long sword that was emitting a chilling cold air.
This was the reward Lu Yi had received for his previous breakthrough to the Golden Core Realm, the High Grade Treasure, Cold Glass Sword.
For Lu Yi, he already had enough treasures. He had the Profound Sun Sword for attacking and the Red Flame Purple Copper Furnace, which were sufficient for his use, and this High Grade Treasure could greatly enhance the power of Ice Based Techniques; it had far greater utility in the hands of his Senior Sister than in his own.
Senior Sister was willing to stay behind to fend off the Divinity Transformation cultivator to let him escape, which was also taking quite a risk.
Since Senior Sister was so supportive of him, he naturally would not be stingy.
This Cold Glass Sword, Lu Yi planned to give to her.
In fact, Lu Yi also harbored a small hope.
That was, he still had a task to make his Senior Sister fall in love with him.
The task with the Junior Sister was like a glitch, never able to be completed.
Lu Yi could only think about resolving things with his Senior Sister first.
What if the task with his Senior Sister was completed?
The moment Lu Yi took out the Cold Glass Sword, Liu Ningshuang was immediately drawn to it.
As someone with an Innate Ice Spirit Body, she naturally knew very well how compatible this Magic Artifact was with her.
Her pretty face showed a trace of astonishment, "Such a powerful force of frost, this cultivation treasure... is it a High Grade Treasure?!"
Lu Yi smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is the High Grade Treasure, Cold Glass Sword. The junior brother obtained it by chance previously and it's most suited for you, Senior Sister."
Liu Ningshuang's calm eyes were like disturbed lake water, slightly rippling. She raised her head to look at Lu Yi, her eyes complex, "Junior Brother... Do you know how precious a High Grade Treasure is? Even a Divinity Transformation cultivator would be willing to trade all they have for it. And you… want to give it to me?"
Lu Yi chuckled lightly and nodded slightly, "Yes, although the cultivation treasure is precious, it cannot compare to the place Senior Sister holds in junior brother's heart. In junior brother's view, all the possessions of a Divinity Transformation cultivator are not as important as Senior Sister's happiness."
Liu Ningshuang's breath fluctuated slightly, and she averted her gaze, her voice steady as she spoke, "…Junior Brother, when did you learn to speak such sweet nothings?"
Lu Yi's mouth twitched slightly, and he began to doubt his life. Was his remark somehow incorrect?
He had specifically gone to Bai Yulong and other brothers skilled in mingling with female cultivators a few days ago to discuss this issue, but it turned out to be an unfavorable start.
Lu Yi forced a dry laugh and said, "Junior Brother speaks sincerely, this Cold Glass Sword, I indeed planned to give to you."
Liu Ningshuang remained silent for a moment, then smiled lightly, "Since that's the case, then Senior Sister shall accept it."
She reached out to Lu Yi, who placed the sword handle in her hand, his fingers also touched Liu Ningshuang's ice-cold, jade-like hands, much like her temperament.
Liu Ningshuang gripped the sword, turned her back to Lu Yi, and faced the Divinity Transformation cultivators catching up from behind, her cool voice rose, "Since Junior Brother is confident, then Senior Sister will join you in killing them."
As she spoke, cold air swirled around Liu Ningshuang, with crystals of snow flying around her, sparkling, her aura much stronger than before, wasn't it?
Merely holding the Cold Glass Sword, Liu Ningshuang's aura had grown so much stronger.
This made Lu Yi inwardly exclaim, it truly was a High Grade Treasure.
Lu Yi laughed heartily, "Good, today we as brother and sister shall cause a great uproar together."
As he spoke, Lu Yi also drew the Profound Sun Sword, standing alongside Liu Ningshuang, facing the multitude of cultivators chasing after them.
The first to catch up was naturally that Divinity Transformation cultivator.
He was an old man in a blood-colored robe, his body thin and skeletal, with sparse hair.
He emitted a strong, nauseating scent of blood, and his aura fluctuated, seeming somewhat weak.
In order to break through Elder Ming's blockade, even though You Ying, a Cave Void cultivator, and two other Divinity Transformation cultivators cleared the way for him, he had still paid a significant price.
Seeing that Lu Yi and Liu Ningshuang had actually stopped, he grinned, revealing a sinister smile, his voice hoarse, "Run? Why aren't you running now? No matter how you run, you are destined to die today."
Liu Ningshuang, holding the Cold Glass Sword, pointed it directly at the Blood Robe old man, her cool voice rang out, "The one to die may not be us."
The Blood Robe elder, upon seeing the terrifying chill released from the Cold Glass Sword, his pupils slightly contracted, then his eyes gleamed with ecstasy, "This cultivation treasure... Is it a High Grade Treasure?! Hahahaha, heaven aids me too! Today should be a great opportunity for Xue Yu!"
Then he turned his head, spotted the Profound Sun Sword in Lu Yi's hand, his eyes twinkling, "And a Mid Grade Treasure?! Good! Good! Youngsters, this old man really should thank you!"
His body surged with Spiritual Energy, and a blood light emerged, like a blood tide, stirring up waves.
The next moment, Xue Yu reached out towards Lu Yi and Liu Ningshuang, a gigantic blood-colored palm materialized, reaching towards them.
This was one of the Blood Spirit Sect's ultimate techniques, Heavenly Blood Hand, which when cultivated deeply enough could block space, much like a heavenly net, trapping any cultivator within it, preventing their escape.

Just then, streaks of cold wind passed, and the Heavenly Blood Hand suddenly stiffened in mid-air. The next moment, it shattered into pieces of blood-colored ice, falling to the ground.
"Huh?" Xue Yu looked at Liu Ningshuang with a shocked expression, his eyes filled with intense killing intent, "I've long heard that Liu Ningshuang of the White Cloud Sect was an exceptional prodigy; truly remarkable. If allowed to grow, you could become as big a problem as Ling Luo Peak Master. I'll kill you today too!"
Liu Ningshuang did not speak, she stepped forward, disappearing from the spot. The next moment, the Endless Ice Sword materialized above Xue Yu's head, slashing down on him like a torrential downpour.
Xue Yu erupted in anger, his Spiritual Energy surged, standing together with Liu Ningshuang.
Lu Yi did not step forward; instead, he turned his head towards the road they had come from.
Thirteen rays of rainbow light rapidly approached, a fearsome aura of the Nascent Soul Realm surging, causing a gale with their wave.
Lu Yi grinned, his eyes filled with icy coldness.
With the Divinity Transformation cultivator temporarily occupied by Senior Sister, he'd kill these few fellows first.
