After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 66 Are you going to refuse all this incredible wealth from the senior?

"You brat, you've got some skills. I never thought that I, a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, would be unable to defeat a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator like you." Zhao Dequan said angrily.

"Senior, how about we call this sparring over?" Ye Xiaobai really couldn't do anything to Zhao Dequan for the time being. After all, the difference in cultivation level was too great. It was only because Ye Xiaobai had extraordinary spiritual sense that he was able to control several flying swords of the spiritual weapon level that he was able to barely contend with the mid-grade spiritual weapon.

"Kid, there's a huge gap between our cultivation levels. If this continues, your spiritual energy will definitely be depleted. Let's see what you do then!" Zhao Dequan felt he had found Ye Xiaobai's weakness.

"Senior, why are you doing this?" Ye Xiaobai said helplessly, knowing that his cultivation level was low.

Zhao Dequan ignored Ye Xiaobai and continued to deplete Ye Xiaobai's spiritual power.

Before long, Ye Xiaobai's spiritual energy was more than half depleted, and his attacks became somewhat sluggish. Zhao Dequan had just shown a look of joy, thinking that the battle was about to end.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Xiaobai took out the pill and swallowed it. His spiritual power recovered considerably, and his attack power also increased. Zhao Dequan was instantly furious.

Thinking that Ye Xiaobai probably didn't have many pills left, she decided to keep going and took some pills to recover along the way.

To Zhao Dequan's surprise, an hour later, his spiritual energy was almost depleted, while Ye Xiaobai was still consuming pills. Zhao Dequan immediately remembered that Ye Xiaobai was also an alchemist and must have a lot of recovery pills on him.

Seeing that he was not well prepared and could not defeat Ye Xiaobai, Zhao Dequan had no choice but to retreat.

"You brat, you got lucky this time. You'll see next time!" Zhao Dequan said, putting away his flying sword and small flag before flying away on his sword.

Watching Zhao Dequan's departing figure completely disappear, Ye Xiaobai finally felt relieved, let out a long sigh, and lay down.

A moment later, Ye Xiaobai immediately retrieved the extra flying swords and flew away from the area, finding a secluded spot to recuperate. After all, he had consumed so many pills in the battle, and it would be difficult to refine them all in a short time. Ye Xiaobai could only slowly and thoroughly refine the medicinal power of these pills.

Three hours later, Ye Xiaobai finally finished refining the medicinal power of all the pills.

After this battle, Ye Xiaobai once again realized that his strength was still too weak. Improving his cultivation was one aspect, but his sword technique, which he clearly felt had reached its peak, wasn't as powerful as he had imagined. Could it be that it hadn't truly reached its peak?

Ye Xiaobai was also full of doubt. He could only improve by sparring and learning from other people who practiced sword techniques.

With that in mind, Ye Xiaobai could only hope that this training trip would offer him a chance to spar with a sword cultivator.

……

On the other side, Zhao Dequan hadn't gone far from Ye Xiaobai when he also found a quiet place to recover his strength.

Suddenly, Zhao Dequan sensed someone approaching and immediately shouted, "Who goes there? Come out!"

“Senior Zhao, please don’t be agitated. I, Guo Xinghe, have come here with important news to tell you!” A middle-aged man slowly walked over.

Zhao Dequan then got a clear look at the newcomer and was immediately shocked when he saw his attire: "You are a cultivator from the Qingyun Sect!"

"Exactly!"

"What's the important matter?"

"I have learned that you are investigating the cause of death of your son, Zhao Deren. According to my confirmation with the Qingyun Sect disciples who participated in the secret realm, no one named Zhao Deren was killed!"

"What do you mean?" Zhao Dequan asked, puzzled.

"This junior dares to guess that it was that cultivator named Ye Xiaobai who killed him! This person is cunning and treacherous! He is the most likely culprit!" Guo Xinghe said with certainty.

"What, do you have a grudge against Ye Xiaobai?" Zhao Dequan asked in return.

"Ye Xiaobai and I did have some friction in the secret realm, but that's not important. What's important is that I heard only Ye Xiaobai has a chance to kill Zhao Deren! Otherwise, you wouldn't have come here to cause him trouble, senior?"

"You've said something of value, otherwise, given that you're a cultivator from the Qingyun Sect, I certainly wouldn't have let you off so easily!"

"Hey, senior, don't be in such a hurry, I have something else to tell you!" Guo Xinghe said with a smile.

"Say!"

"I've heard that you have a son, who is handsome and dashing, and whose cultivation has already reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. It's a real pity that he's over twenty years old and still has no good match!" Guo Xinghe said regretfully.

"What, you want to introduce a potential partner to my son?" Zhao Dequan asked in return.

"Exactly!"

"Forget it, my son is focused on cultivation and has no interest in women," Zhao Dequan said directly.

"Hey, senior, don't be so quick to refuse. The person I'm introducing is our deputy sect leader's youngest daughter!" Guo Xinghe quickly said.

"What? Your deputy sect leader's youngest daughter!" Zhao Dequan was shocked upon hearing this.

"That's right. The deputy sect leader is also very worried about his youngest daughter's marriage! He has introduced many talented young men, but she hasn't taken a liking to any of them."

“However, your Qingyun Sect and our Baihu Sect are irreconcilable enemies! Let’s not talk about this anymore!” Zhao Dequan refused again.

"If water and fire are incompatible, then just let the water extinguish the fire, and that will solve the problem!"

"What do you mean? Does the Qingyun Sect want to destroy our Baihu Sect? With your cultivation at the early Foundation Establishment stage, I could wipe you out with a wave of my hand!" Zhao Dequan blurted out, forgetting that he had just fought a cultivator at the early Foundation Establishment stage to a standstill.

"Senior, please don't be in a hurry. Let me explain it to you slowly!"

"You know that our sect leader is in seclusion trying to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. When he succeeds, our Qingyun Sect will have three Nascent Soul stage cultivators, while your White Tiger Sect will only have one Nascent Soul stage cultivator who is about to die. Forgive me for being blunt, but do you think it's difficult to put out a fire with water?"

"You!" Upon hearing the Qingyun Sect cultivators say they wanted to destroy the White Tiger Sect, Zhao Dequan was at a loss for words, given the disparity in strength.

"Furthermore, if your son were to marry our Vice Sect Master's daughter, he would become the Vice Sect Master after the Vice Sect Master retires. Are you really going to refuse such immense wealth and honor?"

"This..." Upon hearing that his son would become a deputy sect leader in the future, Zhao Dequan was momentarily tempted.

"Senior, please don't get too excited yet. This still requires the Vice Sect Master's daughter to take a liking to your son!" Guo Xinghe added.

After hearing this, Zhao Dequan pondered for a long time but could not make a decision immediately. So he said, "This matter is of great importance, and I need to go back and discuss it!"

“Senior, this matter is indeed very important, as it concerns the prosperity of your family a hundred years from now! I hope you will consider it carefully after you return!” Guo Xinghe said with a smile.

"I understand, we'll talk about it later!" Zhao Dequan said and left. This matter was extremely urgent; he needed to get back as soon as possible to discuss and confirm it.

Seeing Zhao Dequan leave in a hurry, Guo Xinghe felt that the matter was almost certain to be settled.

Guo Xinghe originally intended to take this opportunity to avenge himself against Ye Xiaobai, but he did not expect Ye Xiaobai to be so powerful after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage. He was able to fight on par with a late Foundation Establishment cultivator. He could only find another opportunity to teach Ye Xiaobai a lesson next time.

"That kid's lucky! Next time we run into him, we'll have to teach him a lesson!" Guo Xinghe thought to himself before returning to his sect to report the situation.
