Too terrifying!

Although Lin Xun didn’t say anything, his aura was akin to a killing god that had walked out from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

Everyone knew that the scroll’s contents had been so astonishing that it nearly made Lin Xun lose control of his killing intent.

Thud!

Amidst the incomparably tense and oppressive atmosphere, the North Light Lin Clan Head, Lin Huaiyuan, fell to his knees and slammed his head onto the ground. “Clan Leader, please give the North Light Lin Clan one final chance!”

Everyone was stunned. Lin Huaiyuan’s actions were earth-shattering!

He was Lin Xun’s elder and uncle and was considered an influential figure in the Forbidden City. Despite this, he was currently kneeling to his nephew!

If word of this spread, Lin Huaiyuan would become a laughing stock and even Lin Xun would be implicated.

After all, it was far too unbecoming for a younger clan member to force an elder to kneel and beg.

“Clan Head!”

“Clan Head, you can’t do that!”

The North Light Lin Clan higher-ups panicked as they hurriedly tried to dissuade him. However, Lin Huaiyuan ignored them, refusing to remove his head from the ground.

Even Spirit Vulture and Lin Zhong were surprised. The implications of this were far too unusual, so how would Lin Xun respond?

Lin Xun was silent for a moment. In the end, he calmly said, “I can give the North Light Lin Clan a chance. However, those who have conspired with outsiders must be harshly punished!”

He looked away from Lin Huaiyuan and fiercely glared at every single North Light Lin Clan higher-up in the hall, causing them to feel uncomfortable.

“Now, it’s time for you guys to atone for your crimes. Those who voluntarily confess will receive a lighter punishment, but those who stubbornly refuse will be killed without mercy!”

Each word was said with a noticeable pause and powerfully echoed across the hall.

“Thank you Clan Leader for being forgiving!”

On the ground, Lin Huaiyuan understood that this was the best outcome he could hope for.

He rose to his feet and said, “Clan Leader, although I wasn’t the person who started this, it was my inaction that allowed it to grow. I hope that you will allow me the chance to personally settle this matter to make it up to you.”

Lin Xun asked, “How do you plan on doing that?”

Lin Huaiyuan gritted his teeth as his expression hardened. “Kill those who should be killed, and punish those who should be punished. I would rather kill or punish by mistake than risk a single guilty person escaping!”

“Excellent, I will give you this chance.”

Lin Xun stared at Lin Huaiyuan for a moment before he nodded and agreed.

The North Light Lin Clan higher-ups in the hall were shattered and dumbfounded. They never imagined that Lin Huaiyuan would be the one to raise the butcher knife at them…

……

Four hours after Lin Xun returned to Mind Cleansing Peak.

In the North Light Lin Clan, four Steward Elders had been secretly executed, and thirteen Elders had been stripped of their positions and locked in Mind Cleansing Peak’s restricted zone to reflect.

Nine Guest Stewards, seven Guest Elders, nineteen disciples, sixty-three attendant guards…were all given varying punishments.

Lin Huaiyuan seemed to be strongly intent on showing his stance and obtaining Lin Xun’s forgiveness. Hence, he acted swiftly, decisively, and showed no mercy.

When everything was done, Lin Huaiyuan seemed to lose all of his energy and practically crumpled into his chair with a blank and sorrowful expression.

The great culling was devastating to the North Light Lin Clan, and it was impossible for them to recover without substantial time.

However, this was already the best outcome for them!

At the very least, there were still many young saplings in the North Light Lin Clan who would hopefully strengthen the clan in the future.

If Lin Xun were to have done it instead…

Lin Huaiyuan did not dare to imagine the outcome.

“Lin Wenjing, ah, Lin Wenjing, you’ve bore yourself a great son…with such a successor, it might not be impossible for the Lin Clan to regain its former glory from five hundred years ago and become one of the high clans again…”

Lin Huaiyuan mumbled, his brows filled with exhaustion and emotion.

“Milord!”

An attendant walked in with a letter and reported that it had just been delivered and was requested to be given to Lin Huaitang.

The corners of Lin Huaiyuan’s mouth twitched as indescribable pain welled up in his heart.

Lin Huaitang was his younger brother and had been killed by Lin Xun’s battle pet!

“Wait a minute!”

Just as Lin Huaiyuan was about to open the letter, his expression changed slightly as if realizing something. In the end, he carefully put it away instead.

After which, he hurriedly left for Mind Cleansing Hall.

……

“That’s about it.”

In Mind Cleansing Hall, Lin Xun had just given a quick recount of the events he had experienced in the Spirit Burial Sea.

Although he had simplified most of it, Xiaoke, Lin Zhong, and Spirit Vulture were deeply shocked by the tale and were unable to compose themselves for some time.

He had swept through the Deva Secret Domain like an unstoppable hurricane, slaughtering so many members of the various clans that even the saints and saintesses would rather avoid him.

Later on, he had taken on four of the apex saints alone and defeated them all, becoming the ultimate winner of the Deva Secret Domain!

Even after turning against Spirit Treasure Holy Land and being trapped by the Life Death Stage Kings from the various clans, Lin Xun still managed to escape unharmed!

He was subsequently tossed into the South Dark Sea where he was once again surrounded in Yunpeng Market. Despite this, he managed to use the Grand Universe Ark to slip into the Dao Burial Sea Mound and escape once again.

In addition, more than one of the old monsters had lost their lives amidst the process!

It sounded like a heart-pumping and unbelievable fairytale. If Lin Xun had not personally told them about it, even the highly intelligent Spirit Vulture would not have dared to believe it, let alone Lin Zhong and Xiaoke.

After knowing that Lin Xun currently possessed perfect Heaven Ascension stage cultivation and was near invincible among his peers, Lin Zhong and the others were utterly dumbfounded.

This was a true heaven pride!

In half a year, he had leaped from the Spirit Sea stage into the Heaven Ascension stage, and stepped into the legendary supreme path, allowing him to tower over his peers like a king. He was the strongest among the strongest that could suppress all opponents in the same cultivation stage!

If word of this spread, the Forbidden City would be turned upside down by the astonishing news.

Who would dare to imagine that a Spirit Sea stage youth from half a year ago would return as a great cultivator who was also a supreme king among those of the same cultivation?

“No wonder he’s such a freak. It turns out…that even Life Death Stage Kings can’t kill him…how terrifying, I doubt you could find many such heaven-defying monsters even in the ancient era…”

The Scarlet Eagle King’s heart churned wildly as it finally understood how terrifying Lin Xun was. This also made it grow increasingly respectful and obedient toward him.

“He’s only a teenager, and yet he’s already become a supreme king in the Heaven Ascension stage. Moreover, he has obtained a great blessing from the Deva Secret Domain…serving such an expert doesn’t seem to be bad at all…”

The Scarlet Eagle King suddenly had an epiphany. If it grasped this opportunity to follow Lin Xun, then it would also obtain unimaginable benefits when he proved his dao in the future!

This was the moment that the Scarlet Eagle King was fully convinced. It could see a huge gold mine in Lin Xun and believed that following him would benefit it tremendously.

As the saying went, when a person obtained the dao, even chickens and dogs could fly together with him to the heavens!

Lin Xun’s peerless feats made the Scarlet Eagle King desire the eventual coming of that day.

“Even if I didn’t return, I believe that given Mister Spirit Vulture’s intelligence, you would not have allowed what happened today to continue, right?”

Lin Xun suddenly looked at Spirit Vulture.

Spirit Vulture smiled faintly and bowed his head. “I have indeed made preparations and commanded Third Old Zhu to secretly be on standby. However, I also did not wish to give the command unless there was no other choice. After all, these are the internal affairs of your Lin Clan and the interference of an outsider like me will ultimately leave too many future problems.”

“It’s fortunate that you returned on time and such an event will never happen again.”

Lin Zhong and Xiaoke were taken aback. Only now did they find out about the many secret arrangements Spirit Vulture had made.

“This is a Dao-Refining Seaspirit Flower. It can neutralize the Demon Tribulation Poison in your body.”

Lin Xun took out a sealed jade box and handed it to Spirit Vulture with a smile. “I look forward to the day when your cultivation recovers.”

The usually calm and collected Spirit Vulture suddenly seemed to lose his composure. His pupils shrank, and his lips trembled as he received the box with shaky fingers. This showed just how shaken he was.

All those years ago, he had been a mighty Heaven Ascension cultivator who also possessed peerless wisdom and was a strategic genius. He had been a dazzling existence with a bright future that would make anyone envious.

However, ever since he was afflicted by the Demon Tribulation Poison and his cultivation was crippled, all of this had vanished into nothing!

He had become a cripple who was chained to his wheelchair and could only drift about without purpose. He had originally believed that he would live out the rest of his life in this manner. Who could have imagined that Lin Xun would give him a ‘new lease of life?’

To Spirit Vulture, the Dao-Refining Seaspirit Flower was akin to obtaining being reborn and a second chance for him to run on the path of cultivation again!

“I will repay everything you’ve given me!”

Spirit Vulture left this single sentence behind before he went into closed cultivation. It was said with sincerity, solemness, and a calm decisiveness.

“Lin Xun, thank you.” Xiaoke was also filled with emotion. Spirit Vulture was like a father to her, and she understood how hard his life had been for many years. How could she not feel happy and emotional when Lin Xun gave Spirit Vulture a new chance to cultivate?

“Instructors, this is for you.”

Lin Xun took out another jade box that contained a jasper blade. It was a powerful ancient treasure that had originally belonged to the Jade Qilin Clan saint.

He had also prepared presents for Lin Zhong, Third Old Zhu, and Xia Zhi which he had carefully selected from the many battle spoils he had collected from the Spirit Burial Sea. Each gift was precious and priceless in its own way.

Lin Xun asked, “Right, why has Xia Zhi gone into closed cultivation again?”

Lin Zhong explained, “A month ago, Miss Xia Zhe suddenly said that she wanted to go into closed cultivation. After which, she seemed to fall into a deep slumber and has not awakened since then.”

Lin Xun thought for a while and soon understood. Xia Zhi had begun her second cycle of obliteration.

She practiced the mysterious and terrifying Nine Cycles of Obliteration Art. Every cycle of obliteration was akin to cutting off all of her previous cultivation and turning it into enormous potential as she began cultivating from scratch again.

It was comparable to reincarnating and cultivating anew and was an unbelievably magical process.

“I wonder if she will lose all of her memories during the second cycle of obliteration…” Lin Xun rose, intending to see Xia Zhi.

There were not many people who Lin Xun cared about in this world, and Xia Zhi was undoubtedly the most important among them.

The thought of her cutting off her past each cycle and restarting from the beginning made Lin Xun feel somewhat worried and uneasy.

But before Lin Xun could leave, Lin Huaiyuan suddenly rushed over with an unopened letter and handed it to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun accepted it, opened it, and took a look, only for killing intent to flash in his black eyes.

The contents of the letter were simple. The West Creek, Cloud Weight, and Flying Peak branch clans had sent an invitation to Lin Huaitang to meet at the West Creek Lin Clan to discuss the matter of ruling Mind Cleansing Peak at ten o’clock at night!

Evidently, they believed that Lin Huaitang’s ‘coup’ would succeed and had already prepared to meet up and discuss their future plans on how they would rule over Mind Cleansing Peak.

Unfortunately, they were still unaware that Lin Xun had returned, and Lin Huaitang no longer had any chance to receive this invitation…

“I originally wanted to let you guys keep hopping about for a few days but since this is the case, let us end everything tonight!”

Crackle!

The letter burned to ashes in Lin Xun’s hand and was blown away by the wind.
