Lin Yun looked at his older brother resentfully. While it was true that he would have died if it was not Lin Xiao, he still felt that his brother's words a bit annoying. However, he was astonished at how fast Lin Xiao moved.

"The others…"

At this moment, Princess Lan Yi Hua had moved to behind Fan Ling. Despite her using the wind element to obstruct Princess Lan Yi Hua, it didn't stop Princess Lan Yi Hua's movement in the slightest bit.

Tsk!

Clicking her tongue, Fan Ling swiftly changed her course of position and then the trajectory of her attack. The wind and fire element swirled around her before it all rushed over in Princess Lan Yi Hua's direction.

Fire Storm Wind!

Bang!

Princess Lan Yi Hua didn't try to fight head on and used her own movement's technique to evade to the side. She then charged forward in between the time Fan Ling used her technique to shorten the distance.

"Damn you!" Fan Ling used her other hand to control more fire.

Princess Lan Yi Hua moved once more and then grabbed Fan Ling's hand before her body moved to Fan Ling's back before she used her other hand to grab her and put her sword before Fan Ling's neck.

"Checkmate," Princess Lan Yi Hua said playfully.

Hearing the familiar voice, Fan Ling was stunned. She nearly dropped her fan as she whispered, "Princess Lan Yi Hua?"

"Yep."

She nearly cursed out loudly but then a realization struck her. She had already advanced to Golden Core Stage 1 not long ago and yet she still failed to defeat Princess Lan Yi Hua? Did the princess advance to Golden Core Stage?

But the power she showed so far was only at Foundation Establishment!

While Fan Ling was locked by Princess Lan Yi Hua, Xia Ye had swiftly moved to evade Han Jiang. The brute slammed his large axe to the ground while Xia Ye had already moved once more. 

Tep!

A sword was pointed at Han Jiang's chin from below, preventing him from moving.

"You lose."

The cold and succinct words also stunned Han Jiang greatly. He didn't dare to move his head but he swore that the voice was so familiar. "Xia Ye."

"Mhm."

It's really him? But when did Xia Ye be this fast?

From what Han Jiang could remember, Xia Ye was indeed fast but not to this point where he couldn't even follow the other party's movement. How did this brat's improvement become this big even though he only left for a few months, ah?

Bang!

While they were in deadlock too, Lu Jian's condition was not any better. He noticed that his opponent was not affected by his song, so he swiftly took out his sword to defend against the attack.

However, a leg swept him from below and the next thing he knew, a sword was pointed at his neck.

"Your close range battle ability is still as poor as ever," Prince Lin San commented. He didn't think that it would be this bad but after seeing them up close, he realized that it was indeed bad.

Lu Jian was stumped. "Prince Lin San?"

"Who do you think it is?"

"Wha….?"

Prince Lin Yan watched from the back and shook his head. "Those who stayed here needs some practice too it seems."

"True."

"Agree."

"Totally agree!"

The three of them immediately voiced out their agreement while Xia Ye nodded vehemently. As Princess Lan Yi Hua used her Qi to generate fire, it was clearer to them that those who stayed in the cave were all pinned down to the ground and failed to even fight back properly.

"What's your practice?" Lin Yun have a bad feeling when he saw Lin Xiao's smile. He knew very well that whenever Lin Xiao had that smile, it would mean that he was scheming something bad.

"Nothing much. You just need to fight against some powerful enemies." Lin Xiao shrugged. "Oh right, I have something for you."

"Yes?"

Lin Xiao took out the Rainbow Petal Yang Flower from his Spatial Ring. It had been sitting there for months and thankfully Spatial Ring would freeze time so it was still as good as when he plucked it up.

"This should help you reach Golden Core Stage 1."

Lin Yun's eyes shone with happiness. Unlike many others who would need to bitterly train, his own physique made it possible for him to advance so much faster than others as long as he has the required medicine, which was herbs with Yang attribute. 

"Thank you very much, Bro!"

"You have to process it yourself, though." Lin Xiao had no talent when it came to alchemy. The last time he did it… he nearly poison all of them with his concoction.

It was to the point that Lin Yun wondered how in the world a recipe for medicine suddenly turned into poison in Lin Xiao's hand?

"No problem." Lin Yun laughed heartily.

Prince Lin San used his Eyes of Truth and scanned his friends before he realized that there were two people who were born with special constitution. He blinked his eyes. "Why don't you two just sleep together? Both of you will be able to reach higher cultivation stage if you do that?"

Hearing that, Lin Xiao looked at his younger brother. "Do you want me to kidnap her."

"NO!" Lin Yun was exasperated when he heard what his older brother said. Why did he have to say it upfront, ah?

Fan Ling noticed that Prince Lin San was looking at her. She sneered. "It seems that you have too much free time in your hand, Your Highness Prince Lin San. Do you mind having a spar with me?"

"I won't lose against…." Prince Lin San was stunned when he saw Lin Yun also started attacking. "Ah, don't gang up to fight me! You're already Golden Core Stage and you're still asking for others to cooperate! Whoa! HELPPPP!"

Lin Xiao watched as his twin was attacked and chose to stay out of their problems. How tactless of him to mention it so bluntly.
