I've seen arrogant ones, but never this arrogant. Could Ye Lingyue possibly belong to the crab zodiac?

General Su felt like vomiting blood, his face not looking much better.

But what Ye Lingyue said was not wrong.

In Dan City's Alchemist Mansion, they have immunity.

Even if someone at the Alchemist Mansion commits a crime, officials and the army have no right to intervene; at most, they could only be sent back to Daxia's Alchemist Tower and Imperial Hospital for joint interrogation.

Relying on this Death Exemption Token, Ye Lingyue didn't even blink and in one breath, drove out a dozen or so alchemists.

Given that she holds the Imperial Decree, even if she wanted to walk sideways within the Alchemist Mansion, it wouldn't pose any problem at all.

"Cauldron Master Ye, leave a step for the future when dealing with others. Even if you are a Cauldron Master, driving away more than a dozen alchemists at once, this matter, if it reaches Xia Capital, even if your master, Master Long Yu intervenes personally, he might not be able to protect you," General Su's tone was wholly unkind.

Never before had anyone dared to speak to him in such a manner on the grounds of Dan City.

"General Su's teaching is appreciated, but before instructing me, perhaps take a look at this data in my hands. There's no harm in venting your anger after you've read it," Ye Lingyue had long prepared dozens of letters, each bearing a person's name, corresponding precisely to one of the complaining alchemists.

Seeing the thick stack of letters already prepared, General Su's expression darkened.

All these letters were confidential reports, attesting to various misdeeds of those from the Alchemist Mansion.

From petty theft to fraud under the name of the Alchemist Mansion, to abducting maidens and neglecting the elderly, all kinds of extensive and detailed evidence were present.

"Truly, a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch. Having such scum in the Alchemist Mansion is truly a disgrace. If I, as Cauldron Master, were to leave these dregs in the Alchemist Mansion, I'd truly be ashamed to face His Majesty. General Su, in such a situation, do you still wish to keep these scum around?" Ye Lingyue stood with her hands behind her back, facing the direction of Xia Capital, her face full of regret and righteousness.

General Su's hand holding the letters trembled intensely.

"Cauldron Master Ye has sharp insights; indeed, these scum cannot stay. Bring people, have them along with their belongings expelled from Dan City, never to set foot in Dan City again."

The group of alchemists were pushed out by the soldiers, their pleas echoed outside the General Mansion for a long time without dissipating.

Oh how General Su hated this; these alchemists were all painstakingly cultivated by him and planted inside the Alchemist Mansion.

In the end, it was he who personally ordered their expulsion from Dan City.

"General, with your keen insight, the common people of Dan City are truly fortunate to have an official like you. Now that matters have been settled, I shall take my leave," Ye Lingyue made her courtesies and was about to leave.

"Hold on, I've heard that Cauldron Master Ye's cultivation in spiritual power is astounding. Could I possibly ask Cauldron Master Ye for some guidance?" Just as Ye Lingyue turned to leave,

She suddenly heard a tiger's roar-like gust of wind.

Thump, thump! Two gusts of wind brushed past, and the heavy bronze doors of the General Mansion slammed shut.

Looking at the seat of the General, Su Mu still sat upright, but beside him, waves of earthy yellow Primordial Power were being released.

In the hall, a huge cage appeared.

What was that?

Ye Lingyue's pupils contracted, the Power of Reincarnation.

General Su broke through the first path of Reincarnation and formed the Earth Cage.

At this time, the entire hall seemed like an isolated island; outsiders couldn't barge in, and those inside could not think of getting out.

Ye Lingyue knew that by sending away General Su's men, the other party harbored resentment in his heart, clearly looking for a chance to take revenge.

Although it was just a sparring match, if Ye Lingyue couldn't break out, she would never be able to leave.

"Since the General is interested, then I shall comply with respect," Ye Lingyue said calmly.

She took a step forward as if she were leisurely strolling in a courtyard.

With that one step, a change occurred within Ye Lingyue's body; the Qian Cauldron's Breath instantly boosted her Spiritual Power Cultivation to the Seven Rank.

Suddenly, nine streaks of Rapid Light shot out from the sleeves of her robe—nine daggers, each carrying a powerful wave of spiritual power.

The nine Star Saliva Daggers were like nine swift arrows, whizzing towards the Earth Cage.

"What a strong spiritual power fluctuation, this person originally concealed his own strength," General Su, steady as Mount Tai, felt a secret shock upon seeing the sudden explosion of Ye Lingyue's spiritual power. "But if she thinks she can break the Earth Cage of this general with just these nine daggers, she's underestimating a master of the Reincarnation Realm too much."

In the mainland, every advancement in the Martial Realm represents a vast difference in strength; even if the opponent is an Alchemist, it's hard to bridge this gap.

"What!" General Su's body suddenly leaned forward.

The nine Star Saliva Daggers in mid-air suddenly combined into one and fiercely bombarded the Earth Cage.

The Earth Cage shook violently, but it was not over yet.

On Ye Lingyue's delicate fingertips, a clump of Primordial Power began to condense.

"Little Infinite Finger, One Finger Universe."

With a delicate shout, her fingertip burst forth with a surge of Innate Elemental Power which, fused with spiritual power, like a mountain torrent bursting forth, instantly breached the Earth Cage, tearing a large hole in it.

The fusion of Spiritual Power and Primordial Power caused an effect comparable to a small-scale avalanche.

In the hall of General Mansion, the bluestones on the floor burst apart, and the valuable tables and chairs were torn into fragments.

Even the Taishi Chair that General Su was sitting on snapped in half with a crack.

Faced with this sudden change, General Su's body hung in mid-air, his palms behind his back, ready to unleash an even stronger wave of Primordial Power.

"General, thank you for letting me win," Ye Lingyue slowly exhaled, and as she spoke, something rolled out from her bosom and fell to the floor.

It was several Thunder Bombs...

Seeing those Thunder Bombs, General Su slowly withdrew his fists from behind his back, and his complexion gradually returned to normal.

Now was not the time for a head-on confrontation. Although General Su was still furious, seeing the deadly Thunder Bombs, he remembered another identity of Ye Lingyue, the disciple of Master Long Yu, and wondered how many Spiritual Artifacts and Spirit Pills that old fellow had given his precious disciple.

"Princess Ye is indeed talented for her age," General Su said, staring at Ye Lingyue with a semblance of a smile.

If today, Ye Lingyue's strength had been a bit weaker or if he hadn't seen those Thunder Bombs, General Su indeed had plans to keep Ye Lingyue "permanently" in the General Mansion.

"General is too kind, there are still many matters at the Alchemist Mansion, if I have time another day, I will definitely visit again for another friendly match," Ye Lingyue said resolutely, clasped her fists, and strode out of the General Mansion.
