Chapter 417: Daring



Such fierce beasts could suppress Spirit Sea cultivators. If the hooves struck Lin Xun, he would be severely wounded if not dead.

Whoosh!

A hornless ice dragon shadow charged out from behind Lin Xun. Then, as though he had been carried away on a cloud, he vanished from the spot.

The first transformation of the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations—Hornless Ice Dragon Step!

The ink-hooved dragon beast slammed its hooves into the ground, producing a loud rumble and quaking the ground. The blow was imaginably terrifying.

Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief, but he was irritated. Beasts have to be tamed to pull carriages, which means the dragon beasts wouldn’t have gone on a rampage without an order.

Roar—

However, before Lin Xun snapped back, the ink-hooved dragon beast turned more irritable and ferocious. It let out a furious roar and charged toward Lin Xun. Its foul breath assaulted his face as it pounced toward him.

“Get lost!”

Lin Xun’s black eyes were terrifyingly cold. With icy mist spiraling from his body, he stepped forward and a hornless ice dragon shadow lifted its head and unleashed a resounding dragon roar.

An indescribably terrifying power erupted from Lin Xun’s body.

Instantly, the ink-hooved dragon beast whimpered and collapsed on the ground with a thud as though a mountain had crushed it.

At the same time, the other three ink-hooved dragon beasts groaned and slumped over.

Hiss–

Gasps of shock filled the area.

Lin Xun’s figure was still enveloped in icy mist. The hornless ice dragon shadow raised its head, exuding an indescribable deterrent power and looking at everyone with haughtiness.

His released power had suppressed four ink-hooved dragon beasts that would terrify normal Sea Spirit cultivators.

“What kind of secret cultivation art is that? How can it have such a strong deterrent power?”

Bai Lingxi’s bright eyes lit up with a strange light. Lin Xun had too many secrets. She couldn’t help but feel curious about what sort of unknown power he had grasped.

“Haha, you’re Lin Xun?” A burst of feminine laughter sounded from the carriage, followed by a young man in a blood-colored robe stepping out of the carriage.

His skin was as fair as a woman’s and his face was very pretty. He had a bewitching charm, and his eyes flashed blood-red as they opened and closed.

It was the Marquis of Rising Sky, Zhao Jingyin!

Based on appearance alone, he didn’t seem like a fierce warrior who had made a name for himself on the frontier battlefield. Instead, he more resembled a handsome noble young master.

However, his appearance made many people narrow their eyes and their faces blanched with fear. They knew very well that although the Marquis of Rising Sky had a beautiful exterior, he was a demon inside!

“Correct!” Lin Xun nodded.

He understood that the clash between him and ink-hooved dragon beasts was no coincidence!

“You are indeed as young as the rumors said, but I don’t think you are as bold and daring as they claim.”

His gentle and feminine voice along with his bewitchingly charming face gave him a unique bearing.

“What do you think is daring and bold?” asked Lin Xun.

“If I were you, I would have killed the vicious beast that tried to ram into you and then kill the owner of the beasts,” the Marquis of Rising Sky explained indifferently, but his words were filled with murderous intent. “That’s what I call daring.”

Some people inhaled sharply. His perverse behavior hadn’t changed after five years but instead worsened!

Lin Xun nodded and thrust his palm forward. With a boom, an ink-hooved dragon beast exploded, and blood jetted everywhere.

Everyone trembled and cried out inwardly in panic. Who would have thought that Lin Xun would suddenly attack and kill one of the ink-hooved dragon beasts?

“I’m not that daring and bold, but I still have the guts to kill a vicious animal. Are you satisfied now?” Lin Xun asked indifferently.

“But in my opinion, it’s still too cowardly.”

The Marquis of Rising Sky didn’t seem angry and just stared expressionlessly at Lin Xun.

Bang!

Before his voice died away, another ink-hooved dragon beast exploded. The remaining two roared in alarm.

A look of sheer terror washed over nearby people’s faces.

They still hadn’t figured out the reason why the Marquis of Rising Sky would suddenly stop his carriage and bring trouble to Lin Xun.

Unexpectedly, the Marquis of Rising Sky was domineering, but Lin Xun was not inferior in any respect!

They were on the white jade path that led to the inner palace city. It was a sacred place, but both showed no hesitation in resorting to violence!

How frightening!

Today was the empress’s 300th birthday banquet. Were they not afraid of being punished for causing such a disturbance?

“What about now?” Lin Xun asked again, his jet-black eyes devoid of emotions.

“Still not good enough,” the Marquis of Rising Sky remarked indifferently. There was also not a ripple of emotion on his bewitchingly pretty face.

However, everyone sensed that the atmosphere had turned tense, and a battle was on the verge of breaking out.

The air seemed to have frozen, and the atmosphere was so oppressive that many people could hardly breathe.

Everyone knew that Lin Xun seemed to be demonstrating his courage by killing the ink-hooved dragon beasts in front of the Marquis of Rising Sky, but in truth, it was a counterattack.

The counterattack was simple, direct, and violent!

“Then continue.”

Lin Xun smiled and raised his right hand again.

How would the remaining two ink-hooved black dragon beasts continue to do nothing? When they sensed Lin Xun’s murderous intent, one pounced forward to kill.

The other roared mournfully and hid behind the Marquis of Rising Sky.

Bang! Bang!

With two loud noises, the two beasts were slaughtered.

Lin Xun crushed the head of one, but the other died under Marquis of Rising Sky’s palm. They had both died a tragic death.

Everyone couldn’t help but shudder. So strong!

Both the Marquis of Rising Sky and Lin Xun were provoking each other in the most direct way. Neither of them was willing to take a step back!

Even Bai Lingxi’s expression turned serious.

An accidental conflict had developed into a feud!

However, she was suspicious as to why Lin Xun, who had only been in the Forbidden City for less than one year, would attract provocation from the Marquis of Rising Sky who had just returned.

“Those evil creatures are embarrassing and deserve to die.”

Marquis of Rising Sky’s voice was soft and gentle, but his eyes were grim. “Now, what other way do you have to prove that you are daring?”

Lin Xun smiled. “There is a way.”

Suddenly, the Marquis of Rising Sky’s eyes gleamed with killing intent, and his robe whipped around him. “What way?”

The atmosphere was extremely tense, and the nearby air was visibly unable to bear as it started to distort and wail.

“Kill you directly.”

The smile on Lin Xun’s lips faded. His voice was calm, but it stunned everyone. Many people almost cried out loud.

“Hahaha.”

Marquis of Rising Sky threw his head back and laughed, his voice chilling everyone to the bone like a damp and cold current.

“You have disappointed me. I thought that there was another ruthless man in the Forbidden City who could impress me, but turns out you’re not that amazing.”

The Marquis of Rising Sky scrunched his nose in disdain. “You know, if you’re truly bold and daring, you would have killed me right away instead of waiting until now.”

The Marquis of Rising Sky turned around and strode away under stupefied gazes and didn’t glance at Lin Xun again.

“I won’t kill you this time. Although I can spare your life, you’re not exempt from punishment. I heard that you have repaired the Sword of Apocalypse. Since that’s the case, from today onwards, you will work in my residence and serve me for ten years. Otherwise, when the birthday banquet is over, death will come for you. Think about this carefully!”

The feminine voice drifted away and the Marquis of Rising Sky’s figure vanished.

It was only then that everyone realized the reason that the Marquis of Rising Sky, who was always surly, did not take action in the face of Lin Xun’s provocation.

His true purpose was to make Lin Xun work for him!

No wonder he would suddenly provoke Lin Xun. It turns out that he thinks highly of the other person’s ability after he repaired the Sword of Apocalypse...

The Rune Master Association headquarters, the Divine Workshop, and Qinglu Academy have offered very generous rewards and were very sincere in recruiting Lin Xun.

However, the Marquis of Rising Sky used power and strength to force Lin Xun into submission. He is too domineering!

Understanding dawned on Lin Xun. After a while, he shook his head and said to Bai Lingxi, “Let’s go in too.”

He walked towards the palace and didn’t glance at the blood-stained dragon beast’s corpse on the ground.

Bai Lingxi couldn’t help but ask, “Are you not worried?”

“I’m not worried, just very angry.”

Lin Xun shrugged and said, “I was bullied like that for no reason. If I have the chance, I don’t mind having a life-and-death duel with the Marquis of Rising Sky to see who is more daring.”

Bai Lingxi nodded and didn’t say anything else.

Soon after the two left, a clamor of discussion broke out.

“The Marquis of Rising Sky clashed with Lin Xun the moment he came back. This is too unexpected.”

“Haha, Lin Xun often stirs up a storm in the Forbidden City and is always in the limelight, but he is unlucky to encounter a fierce character like the Marquis of Rising Sky.”

“He is indeed unlucky, but given his current status and identity, the Marquis of Rising Sky can’t possibly make him submit.”

“Interesting, a bloody conflict has happened before the empress’ birthday banquet even started. It will be extremely lively.”

“Yes, even the Marquis of Rising Sky has come back. How would the banquet be an ordinary birthday banquet?”

“Let’s go. It will be clear when we enter the palace.”
