Faced with these words, Liu Shuqin said coldly, "Although that is so, we have come with sincerity. If we do not see the Medicine Immortal, we will not leave easily. Otherwise, why would I have traveled a thousand miles from Jiangbei only to turn back?"
"That is your business and has nothing to do with me!"
The young Daoist's expression was indifferent. He then turned and left, appearing even more arrogant, as if he did not take the group seriously.
Seeing this scene, Liu Shuqin's eyes shifted, filled with a sharp aura. He had never been treated with such disregard. Being treated this way now, he was extremely displeased.
"Miss, please do not act rashly!"
The old man beside him spoke up, reminding her. He could clearly sense Liu Shuqin's spiritual energy surging within her. If she were to make a move, it would surely harm the innocent.
"I advise you not to cause trouble. This is the Medicine Immortal Valley. Moreover, with your strength, let alone breaking into the Medicine Immortal Valley, you might not even be able to get past me!" The young Daoist's eyes were cold as he spoke without reservation.
"What an arrogant brat! So young, yet so ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you think you can act recklessly just because you've become the Medicine Immortal's disciple?"
Liu Shuqin spoke coldly, her aura becoming sharp. She could not accept such behavior from this young Daoist.
In that instant, her body surged forward, and in a flash, she was in front of the young Daoist. Simultaneously, a surge of spiritual energy was sent towards the young Daoist's back.
*Boom...*
With a rumbling sound, the young Daoist did not retreat a single step. Instead, Liu Shuqin quickly retreated, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth. She naturally did not expect this young Daoist to be so formidable.
Many people present also exclaimed in surprise. This person was still young, yet the aura surrounding him was enough to inspire fear. Such a powerful presence made everyone suspect if this young Daoist had some special abilities.
"I advise you not to act rashly, or you will only bring shame upon yourself!" the young Daoist said coldly, his gaze fixed on Liu Shuqin.
Liu Shuqin's expression changed. She never imagined that the young Daoist's aura would be so strong, that even she was no match for him, and could not subdue him at all.
Chen Shihai, who was about to make a move, immediately quieted down upon seeing this situation. He certainly did not believe he was a match for this young Daoist.
"Lord Wang, what do we do now?"
The Lord of Yun City frowned and said, "It seems this matter is not simple. If there is any slight misstep, we might offend the Medicine Immortal Valley!"
"No rush. If we can't enter through the main gate, we'll wait until night and enter through the back," Lu Fan waved his hand.
With so many people coming to seek medical treatment, even if the Valley Master of the Medicine Immortal Valley possessed heavenly means, he probably couldn't handle them all.
At the same time, seeing that no one dared to make a move, the young Daoist slowly left, appearing even more indifferent, as if he did not take the others seriously.
Liu Shuqin gritted her teeth, filled with displeasure. She had traveled a thousand miles to this place precisely to invite the Medicine Immortal's help, and now there was no way to do so, which greatly displeased her.
"Miss Liu, it seems we will have to return empty-handed!" Chen Shihai said helplessly. "Moreover, with so many people coming to request the Medicine Immortal's assistance, it is indeed somewhat difficult!"
"My Liu family of Jiangbei is not to be trifled with. Furthermore, now that I am here, I will not give up so easily!" Liu Shuqin vowed.
"If that is the case, Miss Liu, do you have any other methods?" Chen Shihai asked, as he himself had no solutions.
"I do, but why should I tell you!" Liu Shuqin glanced at him and turned to leave directly. She had no good feelings towards Chen Shihai.
When she had made her move earlier, Chen Shihai had stood by and watched, which naturally made her very displeased.
As night fell, everyone had left. The area outside the Medicine Immortal Valley appeared silent.
Lu Fan and his group arrived at a secluded spot near the Medicine Immortal Valley, about to enter. However, they discovered that another group had also arrived at the same location.
"You also wish to enter the Medicine Immortal Valley?"
Looking at Lu Fan and his group, Liu Shuqin said coldly, with a meaningful tone.
In response to these words, Lu Fan nodded slightly, "That's right, we do wish to enter!"
"Give us tonight's opportunity!" Liu Shuqin stated directly. "After all, my Liu family has an urgent matter!"
"What you say is amusing. Do only your family have matters?" Liu Ruyan said coldly. "Are you so accustomed to being a young lady that you've come to boss us around?"
"How dare you speak to me like that!" Liu Shuqin's expression instantly turned cold, her gaze falling upon Liu Ruyan with great displeasure.
Liu Ruyan, however, did not take it seriously. Instead, she said coldly, "You really think too highly of yourself. Just wait here. If you dare to ruin our plans, don't say I didn't warn you!"
"You truly don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, daring to speak to me like this!"
Liu Shuqin's eyes were sharp, and she intended to make a move against Liu Ruyan. Lu Fan smiled and said, "Since you wish to enter first, we will let you go, to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings!"
Faced with these words, everyone's expressions shifted slightly. They clearly had not expected things to turn out this way, catching them off guard.
Seeing that Lu Fan did not dare to act rashly, Liu Shuqin became even more brazen and directly led her sect into the Medicine Immortal Valley. However, as soon as they stepped near the Medicine Immortal Valley, they were repelled by a powerful spiritual energy, appearing quite disheveled and somewhat powerless.
"Miss!" Many people rushed forward, thoroughly frightened. They naturally did not expect Liu Shuqin to be repelled, appearing so disheveled.
Liu Shuqin's face turned ashen. She looked towards the Medicine Immortal Valley, wanting to curse, but did not expect the perimeter of the Medicine Immortal Valley to possess such powerful spiritual energy, which was truly shocking.
"I thought you were so capable! You can't even get past a mountain-protecting spiritual formation. You're truly a good-for-nothing!" Liu Ruyan sneered, her words completely unreserved.
"If you're so capable, go in and let me see!" Liu Shuqin yelled back. She was already unhappy from her earlier setback, and being mocked like this, she could not accept it.
Liu Ruyan, however, smiled coldly and was about to enter the mountain-protecting formation when Lu Fan stopped her, "Don't enter rashly. It's not that simple!"
Faced with these words, Liu Ruyan's expression shifted slightly. "How will we know if we don't try!"
"By using the Tai Yan Divine Steps, you can ignore the formation's protection!" Lu Fan reminded her. He had taught the Tai Yan Divine Steps to Liu Ruyan long ago, and it was a supreme Daoist technique from the Wordless Heavenly Book. Ordinary formations could not stop them.
Liu Ruyan nodded slightly and immediately executed the Tai Yan Divine Steps, stepping directly inside.
