Even a fierce character of noble rank such as Prince Yunyong, Zhao Xu, had obeyed his orders. How would an ordinary person possess such impressive power?

“Zhao Tailai must be a big shot from the imperial palace. Could it be that the imperial family also wants to step in and support the Lin Clan in this competition?”

The spies all trembled in their hearts, knowing that the situation had changed.

The Lin Clan was so weak and powerless that they were seen as inferior to even the lower aristocratic clans. Everyone thought that they had a death wish to challenge the high clans.

However, if the Lin Clan had the support of the imperial family, it was another story!

“The situation has changed, quickly spread the word!”

“Hurry, tell the clan elders that the imperial family has interfered in the incident, adding waves to the current situation!”

The spies took action one after another, sending messages throughout their respective clans and sects.

Zhao Tailai’s appearance had a significant meaning!

They had thought that Lin Xun was gutsy to disregard everything and challenge the high clans since that was the same as asking for death. But it turned out that they had underestimated Lin Xun’s ability.

……

“Continue the operation.” Lin Xun calmly signaled Lin Zhong and the others to continue to seize the Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion.

From his conversations with Zhao Tailai, he already knew that the emperor and empress were paying close attention to him. So, although Zhao Tailai’s action had surprised him a little, it wasn’t completely unexpected.

If Zhao Tailai failed to resolve the matter, he wouldn’t only be embarrassing himself!

“How could this be…”

Qin Ziming repeated the same words as though his soul had left his body. He almost had a breakdown from the heavy blow.

They failed even with his wife’s status as an imperial family member, but the most unbelievable thing was that Prince Yunyong, whom they depended on, had also backed down.

Qin Ziming still couldn’t understand what sort of powerful figure that Lin Xun had invited here that could make even Prince Yunyong bow his head.

Based on that, how would Qin Ziming dare to fight back?

He could only helplessly watch Lin Zhong, Xiaoke, Third Old Zhu and Lin Huaiyuan walked into the Auspicious Sun Treasure Pavilion in a grand and mighty manner.

The place would soon return to the Lin Clan!

Everything went on in an orderly manner, without the slightest obstacle.

The spies observing everything in secret couldn’t help but feel anxious. Why hadn’t the reinforcements of the Zuo and Qin Clans appeared?

Did that mean Lin Xun had easily settled the storm?

As though they had heard the questions in their minds, an ear-splitting rumble pierced the sky.

An old man with a fluttering white beard trod across a golden rainbow, coming their way. Clad in a black robe, he had the air of a transcendent being.

From a glance, it was as though an immortal was descending upon the earth.

In the blink of an eye, he had already landed and strode towards Qin Ziming. As he opened and closed his eyes, there seemed to be frightening lightning roaming within them.

“Qin Xuandu, a Cyclic Derivation Cultivator of the Qin Clan!”

The spies quivered with shock. The sage-like being was a famous figure of the Cyclic Derivation Stage with a remarkable cultivation base.

“The Qin Clan has come, what sort of waves will it cause this time?”

Everyone’s eyes widened.

“Elder, you’re finally here!” Qin Ziming almost shed a tear of joy. He felt he had grasped a straw in the great ocean. Qin Xuandu’s arrival finally gave him a pillar to rely on.

“Unstable mood and a disorderly body of qi. How can you let a little boy from the Lin Clan make you look so distraught?” Qin Xuandu reprimanded Qin Ziming with a fierce frown.

Feeling wronged, Qin Ziming was about to explain when Qin Xuandu exclaimed in surprise, “Oh, the prince is also here!”

Prince Yunyong stood there motionlessly without any emotion on his face. It was as though he was in deep meditation and didn’t hear the greeting.

Qin Xuandu’s brows furrowed a little in embarrassment. Then, he snorted to himself. Prince Yunyong might have a special status and identity, but it’s not enough to make our Qin Clan fear him.

“Are you Lin Xun?” Qin Xuandu studied Lin Xun.

As for Zhao Tailai, he simply ignored him. He recognized him as a member of the imperial family, but he only viewed him as the owner of the Sky Martial Arena.

“That’s correct,” Lin Xun answered indifferently.

“Do you know what you have done? You sent people to kill so many members of the Qin Clan today, and you took away many properties of the Qin Clan!” Superiority oozed from Qin Xiandu’s imposing manner.

Lin Xun chuckled. “Stop talking nonsense. It’s fine if you want to fight, but if it’s just you, it likely won’t be enough.”

Lin the Brave is so crazy and arrogant. He even said that Qin Xuandu himself won’t be enough to defeat him! The spies felt their hearts twitch.

In the entire Forbidden City, who else apart from Life Death Stage Kings would dare to challenge Qin Xuandu like that?

Unexpectedly, Qin Xuandu said calmly, “Young man, we all know what happened last night. To be honest, I doubted whether you actually defeated Lin Xixi since you are only at the Heaven Ascension Stage.”

“But regardless of whether it is true or not, out of respect for you and to be safe, I will not be the only one taking action.”

As he grinned, a streak of cold, bright lightning flashed across his eyes. “You should be able to die with no regrets since you have earned our respect.”

He had an immortal-like demeanor, but when he said those words, his murderous intent was revealed, surging to the sky and stirring the clouds!

Instantly, a deathly silence and stifling oppressive atmosphere filled the area.

“So terrifying!” The spies shuddered.

“So does that mean your Qin Clan has made up their mind to kill me this time?” Lin Xun looked very calm.

“If possible, we will try our best to capture you alive.” Qin Xuandu smiled. “After all, you are a young rune founder. It will be a waste for you to die. It would be better for you to work for the Qin Clan. At least you will have some value in your life.”

He saw Lin Xun as meat waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping board.

Lin Xun slightly narrowed his dark eyes, but before he could say anything, Qin Xuandu added, “Of course, if you surrender to our Qin Clan now, I can guarantee that you will become an elder of our Qin Clan. Your status and the treatment you receive will not be worse than mine. Also, we will protect your Lin Clan. We can even ask the Life Death Stage Kings of our clan to personally train you.”

Uproar broke out in the outside world.

The Qin Clan was one of the high clans, a behemoth force in the empire. Many top cultivators longed to join the Qin Clan and become one of their elders.

The conditions and benefits that Qin Xuandu stated for Lin Xun to join the Qin Clan were unbelievable. He not only promised him a high position within the clan, but also the protection of the Lin Clan. He was willing to even ask Life Death Stage Kings to give him guidance on his cultivation. Many cultivators would go crazy to hear such tempting conditions.

“Damn it, comparing yourself to others only makes you angry, but if it were me, I would immediately accept the offer. I can train with Life Death Stage Kings of the Qin Clan! Wouldn’t my success in the future be guaranteed?”

Some spies beat their chests with jealousy.

Unfortunately for them, they were not Lin Xun.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but scoff out loud. “Receive advice from the Life Death Stage Kings of the Qin Clan? Can they guide me? It makes more sense for me to guide them.”

Everyone thought that Lin Xun was saying that out of anger.

No one knew that he had grasped the Sacred Combat Art and the Nine Pure Sacred Light Art from the Five Elements Holy Island. Life Death Stage Kings would be ecstatic to receive cultivation guidance from him.

After all, those were inheritances of the Saint Path!

Even the words Saint Path could capture the attention of any Life Death Stage Kings.

“Haha, kid, you are too ignorant. Never mind, you are a stubborn one, so don’t blame our Qin family for being ruthless.” Qin Xuandu sighed, feeling regret for Lin Xun.

“Look, you talked so much nonsense but in the end, you still have to resolve the situation by fighting. Why did you talk so much nonsense then?” Lin Xun shrugged.

“Quickly call your helpers! My time is precious. Can we just fight to our heart’s content now?” Lin Xun sounded very impatient.

Qin Xuandu couldn’t stop his face from darkening, and a terrifying cold glint flashing in his eyes despite his self-restraint and shrewdness.

He said coldly, “I heard that there are also Cyclic Derivation cultivators on the Mind Cleansing Peak, so why don’t you summon them all too.”

He thought that Lin Xun was so confident and fearless because he had other people supporting him.

“No need, I can deal with you all alone,” Lin Xun said dismissively.

“Okay! Very good! Because you said that, I am going to make you understand that arrogance can sometimes bring you closer to death!” Qin Xuandu smiled coldly.

A peal of laughter rang in the distance. “I already told you that the kid Lin Xun is arrogant and tyrannical! Don’t waste time talking to him. Just capture and kill him.“

Rumble!

Following the loud laughter, the ground quaked, as if an ancient dragon was galloping their way from afar. In everyone’s imagination, the coming person had to be mighty and strong.

But the person turned out to be a slender and graceful woman with a bright and beautiful face.

However, as her foot hit the ground, there was a deafening rumble as though a mountain was slamming the earth. Her delicate and slim body seemed to unexpectedly contain an erupting volcano-like power.

“Zuo Baoying, a Cyclic Derivation cultivator from the Zuo Clan!”

All the spies gasped. This woman was not inferior to Qin Xuandu in terms of strength. She was known as a female Luocha. She had killed countless people, and her hands were stained with blood.

“Two great cultivators of the Cyclic Derivation Stage! The kid is doomed. But I didn’t think the Zuo and Qin Clans would be so ruthless as to dispatch two Cyclic Derivation cultivators as their first move. They clearly don’t intend to leave a way out for Lin Xun!”

Everyone was either astounded, excited or gloating. They never expected the situation to develop into such a state.
