In front of Xiao Chen, Nangong Guan directly sent a message to the other three, telling them that their Master, Jun Wuya, had accepted a disciple, and that they had a Junior Brother as well. Soon, Zhou Song, Wu Huan, and Xiao Xiao all replied. The contents of their letters were the same, telling Nangong Guan that they would come to Nangong City as soon as possible.
Because Xiao Chen was Jun Wuya's disciple, Zhou Song and the other two, like Nangong Guan, attached great importance to Xiao Chen.
After receiving the three's replies, Nangong Guan smiled faintly, and Xiao Chen let out a sigh of relief. If that was the case, then his and Yang Song's plan should be able to succeed.
Now, all they needed to do was wait for Zhou Song and the other two to arrive. That evening, Nangong Guan prepared a banquet. No matter what, she and Xiao Chen wouldn't leave until they were drunk.
Facing Nangong Guan's enthusiasm, Xiao Chen didn't refuse. Everyone gathered together, drinking and chatting. The atmosphere was very lively, and it didn't disperse until late at night.
Nangong Guan's enthusiasm for Xiao Chen's group caused many of the Family Nangong members to hear some rumors. After all, Nangong Guan had always called Xiao Chen 'Junior Brother'.
Since Nangong Guan's Master was Jun Wuya, Xiao Chen was definitely Jun Wuya's disciple.
After guessing this, the Family Nangong members treated Xiao Chen with great respect, not daring to be impudent.
The night passed in silence. Xiao Chen's group had a good night's rest. After all, it was just a Family Nangong, so they didn't need to worry about their safety.
The next morning, Xiao Chen began to cultivate as usual. However, it was at this time that Nangong Guan personally came to visit him. Seeing Xiao Chen cultivating in the courtyard, Nangong Guan laughed loudly and said, "Brother, you've been cultivating for a long time.
"Junior Brother is really hardworking. No wonder Master loves Junior Brother so much."
It was true that Jun Wuya doted on Xiao Chen. Otherwise, he would not have given his personal token to Xiao Chen.
Hearing Nangong Guan's words, Xiao Chen stopped what he was doing and smiled. "Eldest Senior Brother."
Upon seeing this, Nangong Guan strode forward and intimately patted Xiao Chen's shoulder. She then pulled Xiao Chen to a nearby stone bench and sat down. Her expression became serious as she spoke.
"Junior Brother, I've been thinking about something all night. How do you plan to deal with Yuan Lin and the others?"
Nangong Guan took the initiative to talk about Yuan Lin and the others. Hearing this, a cold light flashed through Xiao Chen's eyes, but he did not directly answer. Instead, he looked at Nangong Guan and asked, "What does Senior Brother think we should do?"
After all, Yuan Lin was one of the Five Sword Leaders of the Sword Sect. Killing him might be troublesome, so Xiao Chen wanted to hear Nangong Guan's opinion. If Nangong Guan had some misgivings, then Xiao Chen would not force him. He would just lock him up until the Sword Sect's matters were settled.
In truth, according to Xiao Chen's opinion, Yuan Lin could not be left alive. However, this was the Family Nangong, so Xiao Chen had to consider Nangong Guan's opinion. Moreover, Nangong Guan had been very good to him, so Xiao Chen did not want to make things difficult for her.
However, Xiao Chen's worries were clearly unnecessary. After hearing his words, killing intent flashed through Nangong Guan's eyes. She then said in a deep voice, "Kill him. If Junior Brother wants to stabilize his position as the Sword Sect's Sect Master, someone like Yuan Lin cannot be left alive. I think we should just kill him and get rid of future troubles."
Xiao Chen was originally worried that Nangong Guan would have some misgivings and would not be willing to kill Yuan Lin, but after hearing her words, Xiao Chen was clearly wrong.
In truth, Xiao Chen did not understand Nangong Guan. Nangong Guan was famous for being overbearing, and she was not a person who was afraid of trouble. Although Yuan Lin's status was not ordinary, in Nangong Guan's opinion, this person could not be left alive and must be killed quickly.
When Nangong Guan proposed to kill Yuan Lin, she had weighed the pros and cons. After all, Yuan Lin was a member of He Ying's faction, and He Ying would never allow Xiao Chen to become the Sect Master. Thus, killing Yuan Lin was equivalent to cutting off He Ying's arm, which was definitely beneficial to Xiao Chen.
As for whether this would anger He Ying or not, Nangong Guan did not consider it at all. After all, from the current situation, it was impossible for Xiao Chen and He Ying to coexist peacefully.
If Xiao Chen wanted to become the Sword Sect's Sect Master, he would first have to defeat He Ying, so whether or not he killed Yuan Lin did not matter much to Xiao Chen.
Thus, he might as well kill Yuan Lin directly to avoid any more complications.
Nangong Guan supported Xiao Chen's decision to kill Yuan Lin. Hearing her words, Xiao Chen nodded and said, "Then we'll do as Senior Brother says."
"Good, then I'll leave this matter to Senior Brother. Junior Brother, you can rest assured." Nangong Guan nodded and said.
In truth, helping Xiao Chen become the Sword Sect's Sect Master was beneficial to Nangong Guan and Family Nangong. It was because of this that Nangong Guan spared no effort in helping Xiao Chen.
After chatting with Xiao Chen for a while, Nangong Guan directly left.
Since she had already decided to kill Yuan Lin, Nangong Guan directly went to Family Nangong's dungeon. In the dungeon, Nangong Guan saw Yuan Lin.
His cultivation was sealed, and he was locked in a dark and damp dungeon. When he saw Nangong Guan, Yuan Lin calmed down and raised his head to look at Nangong Guan. A trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, but it was only for a moment before he spoke indifferently.
"Nangong Guan, what's wrong? Are you going to make a move?"
Yuan Lin clearly guessed his fate. Hearing his words, Nangong Guan did not hide anything and replied indifferently, "I can't let you live, so you should go on your way. Don't worry, He Ying will be back soon to accompany you."
Hearing Nangong Guan's words, Yuan Lin suddenly laughed loudly. However, his laughter was somewhat sad.
"Haha, I didn't expect, I really didn't expect that brat to be Jun Wuya's disciple!" Yuan Lin shouted loudly.
Knowing that he was going to die, Yuan Lin's only regret was that he didn't know that Xiao Chen was Jun Wuya's disciple.
It was because of this accident that caused He Ying's plan to fail completely, and he, Yuan Lin, was on the verge of death.
Facing Yuan Lin's laughter, Nangong Guan's expression did not change in the slightest. She only said indifferently, "There are many unexpected things. The only thing you did wrong was to block my junior brother's path."
As she spoke, Nangong Guan pointed a finger, and a golden light shot out, instantly piercing through Yuan Lin's forehead.
As one of the five Sword Heads of the Sword Sect, Yuan Lin died in Family Nangong's dark dungeon. With his cultivation sealed, Yuan Lin was naturally powerless to fight back.
After easily killing Yuan Lin, Nangong Guan's expression was still indifferent. She turned around and left the dungeon, then said to the other experts of Family Nangong who came with her, "Kill everyone else as well."
