How powerful was the Thirty-Six Lotus Realms?

Despite that, she had been killed while using this move that she was also most proud of, deprived of all vitality and becoming a rain of ashes!

She had also died at the hands of Kong Yin’s killer, a mere supreme Saint-King.

In just a second, heaven and earth sank into heavy silence.

Jintian Xuanyue and Kong Yu’s group stopped dead in the middle of their fierce battle out of pure shock.

The difference was that Jintian Xuanyue’s shock contained unconcealable joy, while Kong Yu’s group looked lightning-struck as if they had just become orphaned.

When two quasi-Emperors joined forces, they should be able to virtually dominate all supreme Saint-Kings in the world!

However, the reality here was that Kong Yin and Qu Rao had been killed by Lin Xun one after another, and in a head-on fight at that. Who would not be horrified by this?

Ancestor Burning Flame and the other big names who had been watching from the shadows all gawked with their mouths agape.

They could feel their livers rupturing as a great terror took over them! To think that the prey they had set their sights on in Donglai Treasure Pavilion was actually such a heaven-defying savage…

“Why did you guys stop?”

Lin Xun’s question echoed in the sky.

Although his clothes were tattered, his spine was straight as a sword. While the corners of his lips were stained with blood and his face was pale, he exuded an oppressive might just by standing there.

Clank!

With a smile, Jintian Xuanyue wielded her sword and resumed attacking.

Kong Yu’s group, however, was already too scared to fight any longer.

“Run!” They fled without hesitation.

The experts of the Xing Clan were even more terrified as they trembled from head to toe. They couldn’t care less about Kong Yu at the moment and also chose to escape with each one fleeing faster than the other.

“If I let you guys go, then you’ll become trouble in the future…” sighed Lin Xun, who then vanished with a flicker.

The next moment, he appeared in front of Kong Yu.

“Don’t kill me! I’ll pay you anything!” shrieked Kong Yu.

Poof!

His scream was still echoing when the Broken Blade cleaved him in half. In his final moment, Kong Yu had fear and disbelief written all over his face.

He, who had set foot on the path of cultivation as a pureblood descendent of the Imperial Kong Clan and then been accepted into Primordial Dao Court, had always been worshiped and respected wherever he went.

Who could have thought that there were people in this world who had no regard for his noble identities and would kill him without any hesitation at all?!

Operating at an extreme speed, Lin Xun couldn’t bother with a dead man like Kong Yu as his priority was to kill all the enemies as fast as possible.

Poof poof poof…

In the time that followed, one expert after another was taken down while they fled, including Kong Yu’s powerful escorts as well as the experts of the Xing Clan.

Lin Xun didn’t care who it was as he chased and killed them!

His current strength allowed him to slaughter even quasi-Emperors in a direct confrontation, let alone these cultivators who were on the same stage.

He killed them as easily as tearing paper or slaughtering chickens!

Jintian Xuanyue wanted to assist, only to find out along the way that she wasn’t needed anywhere…

Meanwhile, Ancestor Burning Flame and the others had been drenched in cold sweat. They had decided very early to run away from the scene, lest Lin Xun notice and include them in his hit list.

In actuality, Lin Xun currently had no energy to spare for the little fish.

A few moments passed.

Xing Liushui, the head of the Xing Clan, arrived in front of the majestic and prosperous Lin’an City after teleporting nonstop at his maximum speed. Just as he was about to enter the city…

Swish!

A broken blade appeared in front of him. If it wasn’t for the fact that he had managed to stop in time, then he would have crashed into it and suffered something unimaginable.

“Fellow Daoist, our clan was merely following orders. We have no intention to be your enemies, so please be lenient just this once,” pleaded Xing Liushui in a trembling voice, his face as white as a sheet.

“If it was me who had fallen into a disadvantaged situation this time, would you be lenient?” asked Lin Xun.

Xing Liushui stiffened. The answer was so obvious that he would look fake to even think of denying it.

Poof!

Lin Xun took almost no time to attack. With a flash of the Broken Blade, Xing Liushui was beheaded in front of Lin’an City

Lin Xun left right after.

“Heavens!”

“The leader of the Xing Clan was killed!”

As a port city, Lin’an City had a constant stream of people coming and going, so the bloody execution was naturally seen by many cultivators.

A tide of shocked exclamations filled the scene, and it didn’t take long for the news to spread into the city, triggering an uproar.

“Xing Liushui and his clansmen were acting together with a group of experts from Primordial Dao Court, but he just got beheaded. Does this mean those Primordial Dao Court experts have already died as well?”

Many people gasped in astonishment. They had seen Kong Yu leading Xing Liushui and his group out of the city in a furious manner, so what had just happened outside the gates immediately reminded them of that.

“How terrifying! Who is that person?”

Many felt chills in their hearts. Xing Liushui was a peak supreme Saint-King. In the Qing State, he was regarded as a big shot who could make the wind and rain come and go as he pleased.

Yet, such a person had been killed in front of his own lair!

When Ancestor Burning Flame and those like him who had secretly followed them out to watch the bustle returned, they brought back even more explosive news.

“Yu Xuan executed two quasi-Emperors, Kong Yu’s group, and a bunch of experts from the Xing Clan!”

“Yu Xuan, a young supreme Saint-King, has the power to kill opponents who were an entire stage above him!”

“Yu Xuan once appeared in Donglai Treasure Pavilion…”

“Yu Xuan…”

Breaking news swept through Lin’an City like a storm, setting off waves of shock

The divine material of unknown origin that had been anticipated by all and sundry was finally brought on stage as the grand finale.

However, as Pu Lanzhi carefully composed an introduction in her head, there was an unexpected raucous scene in the auction hall.

“What? The Xing Clan’s leader is dead?”

“It even involved experts of Primordial Dao Court?”

“Yu Xuan is too ferocious…”

The hall was restless as countless shocked cries rang out, which washed away the anticipation for the final auction item.

Pu Lanzhi was stunned to learn that the pair of cultivators, whom she had originally deemed to be in big trouble, had actually done an earth-shattering deed!

This drew a wry smile from her.

The grand finale was supposed to be the focus of attention, but now…it was completely messed up.

……

In the vast mountain range outside the city.

Upon meeting up with Jintian Xuanyue, Lin Xun said like nothing big had just happened, “Time to head to Cloud State.”

Then, he summoned the Grand Universe Ark with a wave of his hand. The ship carried the two and sailed away through the air.

“Young Master, this is the loot from earlier.”

On the ship, Jintian Xuanyue handed a storage ring to Lin Xun with an expression of heartfelt respect.

When she had been defeated by him on Whirlwind Ship, she had been unable to assess his true depths.

Now, she finally had a clear idea. Yu Xuan had already reached a height in the Supreme Saint-King Stage that she needed to look up to!

Lin Xun keenly sensed the change in Jintian Xuanyue’s attitude, but he made no comment and started inspecting the storage ring.

The spoils of war for defeating Kong Yu’s group were extremely generous. There were all sorts of divine materials, aeth herbs, ores, and divine treasures that would amount to over ten million dao crystals according to the exchange rate of the black market!

As they said, a horse could not get fat without extra rations, and a man could not get rich without a shady income!

“We’ll split the money after selling all these,” said Lin Xun casually.

A stunned look mixed with complicated emotions flashed in Jintian Xuanyue’s clear eyes. She then declined, “How could I, your attendant, have a share in your loot?”

Lin Xun laughed, “What attendant? Since you fought alongside me, of course you must take half the earnings. This has always been a rule that I, Li…well, Yu Xuan, follow.”

He almost had a slip of the tongue and said his real name.

Jintian Xuanyue’s heart trembled as an indescribable joy arose. Is this…how it feels when your effort is recognized?

“Hm?” Lin Xun suddenly stood up and walked out of the cabin.

The next second, the Grand Universe Ark came to a stop.

In the far horizon in front of them, a green-clad woman stood with an umbrella in her hand. There was something glamorously demonic about her as the umbrella was the blinding red color of blood and her clothes fluttered among the misty clouds.

“I hope I have not offended you by coming uninvited,” said Qing Ying, her voice soft and indistinct.

“What brings you here, Miss Qing Ying?” Lin Xun’s eyes slightly narrowed.

Since he had just fought two quasi-Emperors, his strength was greatly depleted, not to mention his injuries.

Therefore, the unannounced visit of Qing Ying, who was shrouded in a mysterious aura, put him on guard.

In the presence of this woman, Lin Xun was even more serious than when he had faced Kong Yin and Qu Rao!

Seemingly noticing his wariness, Qing Ying directly stated her intentions, “I would like to make a deal with you, Young Master.”

Lin Xun’s interest was piqued. “I’m all ears.”

Qing Ying got straight to business, “I wonder if you’ve heard of a person called Lin Xun?”

In this instant, Lin Xun keenly perceived Qing Ying’s gaze on him, as though she was closely observing his reaction.

His expression didn’t shift one bit as he replied, “The most wanted criminal on the Ancient Nebula Road? Of course I’ve heard of him.”

“Mhm,” said Qing Ying, who fell into a long silence before continuing. “If you have the chance to meet him in the future, please tell him Qing Ying of Fog Obscured Alms wishes to see him, and that when I do, I will tell him something that will only prove beneficial to him.”

“I see.” Lin Xun then asked, “That man has disappeared for many years. What makes you think that I will be able to meet him one day?”

Qing Ying responded, “Intuition.”

Lin Xun’s lips twitched imperceptibly. In the end, he shook his head with a wry smile. “Alright then, I’ll do as you’ve requested.”

“You have my gratitude, Young Master,” said Qing Ying, who flipped her hand and took out an exquisite, clear copper mirror. “Inside this mirror is a map which you can use to find me. Once you fulfill my request, I will likewise reward you with something that you won’t be able to refuse.”

Lin Xun smiled musingly, “Something I’m unable to refuse?”

Qing Ying said, “Whether you believe it or not, what’s the harm in waiting for it, right?”

Lin Xun nodded straightforwardly. “Very well, then I’ll also trust my intuition with this one.”

Buzz!

Qing Ying snapped her fingers, and the thin copper mirror flew toward Lin Xun.

“I’m looking forward to meeting you next time, Young Master.”

After saying that, Qing Ying turned around. Her green dress fluttered in the sea of clouds. Her scarlet umbrella was like a canopy that blocked all the sunlight and concealed her face.

She was as mysterious as the fog!
