Everyone’s mouths gaped wide with shocked disbelief.

This was because Yang Yundu had been slapped by Yue Jianming, whom he regarded as his backer!

It was too unexpected. Yang Yundu had always been the person whom Yue Jianming trusted the most. Why would he slap him instead of standing up for him when he saw him being bullied?

Moreover, it was a real slap in the face, a loud and crisp slap. Seeing Yang Yundu stumbling backwards was enough to show the force of the slap!

Even Lin Xun was just as surprised, and he couldn’t help but sweep a ruminative glance over Yue Jianming.

“Senior Brother Yue, you…”

The successors of the Thousand Illusions Sect all cried out in bewilderment.

As for Yang Yundu, he stood there stupefied, clutching his red and swollen cheeks.

“I am just saving you.” Yue Jianming sighed softly. Even though he was just standing there casually, his imposing figure and charming appearance had a humbling effect.

As he was speaking, he looked at Lin Xun and said, “Thank you fellow cultivator for going easy on my junior brother. I want to apologize on behalf of him.” He bowed slightly with an apologetic expression on his face, looking very sincere.

Everyone became more and more shocked and dumbfounded. In their hearts, Yue Jianming was a divine being-like man. His name was known throughout the Fire Spirit Province, and he shone with boundless radiance.

But now, he was apologizing to an unknown youngster!

They found it hard to accept.

Mo Feng and the others were so struck dumb in the distance that they almost forgot to breathe.

They came to watch a good show, but why did Yue Jianming offer an apology before the show started?

“Big Brother Lin Xun, Senior Brother Yue Jianming is apologizing to you.”

Xia Xiaochong’s innocent face lit up with surprise. Yue Jianming was a peerless genius whom she admired greatly.

“Yes, I heard it,” Lin Xun said helplessly. He never thought that Xia Xiaochong would be so excited to see Yue Jianming like a little fan meeting their idol.

“Senior Brother Yue, why…did you apologize to him?” Yang Yundu stuttered, unable to read the situation and unable to accept what was happening in front of him.

“I told you a long time ago that there is a kind of person in this world who can’t be insulted. This fellow cultivator in front of you is one of them. After your rude behavior, even if he killed you, you deserve it.” Although Yue Jianming was speaking to Yang Yundu, he was still looking at Lin Xun apologetically.

Lin Xun was a little surprised that a remarkable talent of the Fire Spirit Province would act so humble towards him.

But he had a feeling that Yue Jianming was most likely treating him like that because he had noticed something from him.

Yang Yundu’s expression morphed indefinitely. He had been scolded to the point that he wanted to bury his head. His heart was filled with indescribable frustration and indignation.

Why couldn’t he insult an unknown boy who appeared out of nowhere?

He couldn’t understand it.

Not only Yang Yundu, but the other successors of the Thousand Illusions Sect were all taken aback. They never thought that Yue Jianming would think so highly of Lin Xun.

Why mustn’t he be insulted?

Could this guy have a very unusual background?

In the distance, Mo Feng and the others were also shaken. They couldn’t believe Yue Jianming’s treatment towards Lin Xun because it suggested that the youngster had an incredible background or that his strength was incredible. Only one of those two reasons could make Yue Jianming treat him in such a way.

Other than that, there was no other reason!

That disheartened them and made them feel defeated. If the youngster was that terrifying, how could they get revenge in the future?

Yue Jianming suddenly spoke, “Fellow cultivator, can I talk to you for a moment?”

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes imperceptibly and nodded. “That’s fine.”

He had already guessed that Yue Jianming didn’t come to apologize to him nor to teach Yang Yundu a lesson in front of him.

“I am Yue Jianming, an official successor of the Thousand Illusions Sect, can I ask for your name?”

The two moved away to a lush green hill not far away and Yue Jianming introduced himself.

“Lin Xun,” Lin Xun answered.

“Oh, Fellow Cultivator Lin. I wonder if it is the opportunity in the depths of Ziniu Mountain that brought you here?”

Yue Jianming’s eyes were bright, and his manners were polite and respectful like a gentleman.

“No.” Lin Xun’s answer surprised Yue Jianming slightly.

He then said with a smile, “It seems like you also know that, even if there is a great opportunity in the depths of Ziniu Mountain, it comes at the risk of terrifying dangers. This trip may be a disaster rather than a blessing.”

Lin Xun knew that Yue Jianming had misunderstood him to be lying about his purpose in Ziniu Mountain, but he didn’t bother to explain to him. “Fellow Cultivator Yue, did you call me aside to talk about this?”

Yue Jianming smiled. Seeing that Lin Xun was a little annoyed, he immediately cut to the chase. “In half a year, the Dao Lantern Festival that happens once every ten years will kick off on Cangwu Mountain in the West Infinity World.”

“Unlike in the past, many young geniuses and talents of the younger generation will participate in the Dao Lantern Festival. It is said that Saintess Wu Lingcong from the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, the number one sect of the West Infinity World, will also attend the festival.”

“During this period before the battle of the great age comes, this is going to be a grand event for the young generation in the West Infinity World!” Yue Jianming looked at Lin Xun. “I wonder if Fellow Cultivator Lin will be interested in joining us?”

Cangwu Mountain, Dao Lantern Festival!

If many talented people in the West Infinity World would participate in the event as Yue Jianming said, then the significance of the lantern festival couldn’t be simple!

However, Lin Xun had come from the lower domain world, so he had no idea what the Dao Lantern Festival involved. He hadn’t even heard of the Cangwu Mountain, so he wouldn’t agree to attend so rashly.

Lin Xun asked, “Fellow Cultivator Yue, may I ask, why did you invite me to participate in this grand event at our first meeting?”

Yue Jianming gave a surprised smile at first before a blazing light rushed out from his eyes. “Would you believe it if I said that I knew you were extraordinary the moment I laid eyes on you?” He stared directly at Lin Xun.

Then, a smile of confidence spread across his face. “I dare to say that you aren’t below me in terms of strength, you might even…surpass me!”

Lin Xun narrowed his dark eyes, and immediately said casually, “Fellow cultivator, you are over-praising me.”

Yue Jianming chuckled, “Fellow cultivator, you are too modest.”

He took out a palm-sized jade tablet that was engraved with obscure runes and presented it to Lin Xun with both hands. “This is a badge for participating in the Dao Lantern Festival, please accept it regardless of whether you plan to participate or not. It is a little token from me.”

After a pause, he continued, “Of course, I did this partly because of my own selfishness. I hope I can appear at the Dao Lantern Festival with Fellow Cultivator Lin and face the genius figures from the world together.”

“In short, I am looking for an accompanying companion.” Yue Jianming chuckled at himself, seeming very honest and frank.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows. Yue Jianming clearly came prepared. He is not only full of sincerity but also very respectful.

Lin Xun was a little caught off guard being treated in such a way.

After pondering for a moment, he took the badge and said, “Then I would like to thank you in advance.”

“I look forward to that day.” Yue Jianming couldn’t be happier. After he finished speaking, he bid farewell and left with the group of successors from the Thousand Illusions Sect.

As Lin Xun watched them leave, he fiddled with the jade badge in his hand, deep in thought.

“Could Yue Jianming have invited me so sincerely just so he could have someone to accompany him?”

“Cangwu Mountain, the Dao Lantern Festival...If I have some free time then I should go and take a look at the brilliance of the younger generation in the West Infinity World!”

“There’s also the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms that claims to be the number one sect in the West Infinity World. It seems that a Saint-level sage is watching over that sect. I also wonder what kind of peerless figure Saintess Wu Lingcong is.”

Lin Xun had also detected an imperceptible look of admiration flicker across Yue Jianming’s eyes at the mention of the name of Wu Lingcong.

Wu Lingcong had to be remarkable to be able to make Yue Jianming admire her and to be training in the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms, the number one dao sect in the West Infinity World.

Without further delay, Lin Xun put away the jade badge and continued onwards with Xia Xiaochong.

But before that, he suddenly appeared in front of Mo Feng and the others with a flash, almost scaring them out of their wits so that they screamed out in horror.

“Everyone, was the show good?” Lin Xun asked with a smile.

The faces of Mo Feng and the others altered from fear to hatred to other complex expressions as they looked at Lin Xun.

Someone gritted his teeth and summoned the courage to ask, “What do you want?”

Lin Xun thought for a moment and only uttered a brief sentence, “Watch what you do,” before he turned around and left.

It wasn’t until Lin Xun and Xia Xiaochong disappeared that someone asked angrily, “He’s so arrogant, what did that guy mean by that? Does he think he can bully our Spirit Pearl Sect?”

“He is telling us that he only wanted to teach us a lesson in retaliation for what we had done before. If we continue, then he won\'t hold back anymore!”

Mo Feng’s face was overcast, and his heart was filled with an indescribable sense of frustration and defeat.

He had completely given up on getting revenge on Lin Xun after seeing Yue Jianming’s attitude towards Lin Xun.

Everyone was silent, emotions churning in their hearts.

“Actually, it’s not a big deal. We made a mistake before, but he only repeatedly teased us and showed no intention to kill us. In my opinion, this matter is over now,” Wen Feiran reassured the others. She could tell that everyone was very down and upset.

“Is it over...” Mo Feng sighed. He had truly given up on revenge, but after this little incident, he realized what was meant by the saying that there was always someone better.

He realized how ridiculous they had been!
