Yuan Lin died at Nangong Guan's hands. As for the other Sword Sect experts who came with Yuan Lin, they naturally couldn't escape either. Soon, Yuan Lin and his group died in the Family Nangong's dungeon.
After killing Yuan Lin and his group, Nangong Guan's expression didn't change in the slightest, as if nothing had happened.
After leaving the dungeon, Nangong Guan once again went to look for Xiao Chen. Yang Song was also there, so Nangong Guan told Xiao Chen and Yang Song about Yuan Lin and his group. Hearing this, the two of them didn't say anything.
Yuan Lin's death didn't matter. He deserved to die, or rather, he had to die. After all, he had always been an obstacle to Xiao Chen's control of the Sword Sect. Now that Yuan Lin had died, He Ying had lost an arm.
Not many people knew about Yuan Lin's death, and his body was secretly disposed of. It was likely that no one in this world would be able to find Yuan Lin and his group's bodies.
In the next few days, Xiao Chen and his family waited in Nangong City for the arrival of his three senior brothers and sisters.
While Xiao Chen was living comfortably in the Family Nangong, He Ying, who was in the Sword Sect, was feeling very depressed these days.
It wasn't because of anything else, but because Yuan Lin and his group's Life Tablets had all shattered. Their Life Tablets shattered, which meant that Yuan Lin and his group were dead.
He Ying didn't expect this at all. After all, Yuan Lin and his group had gone to kill Xiao Chen, but now, Xiao Chen's group was dead. He Ying didn't know what had happened to Yuan Lin and his group. What was going on?
He Ying didn't know what had happened to Yuan Lin and his group. The last time Yuan Lin sent him a message, he said that he had found Xiao Chen's whereabouts and was going all out to pursue him. After that, Yuan Lin didn't contact him again.
After Yuan Lin's death, He Ying naturally suspected Cang Xing. However, during this time, Cang Xing had always been in the Sword Sect, and his subordinates didn't do anything out of the ordinary. Therefore, it was impossible for Cang Xing to kill Yuan Lin.
He Ying couldn't figure out what had happened, but he had a bad premonition these days. He Ying didn't know why, but he couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Could it be that brat had a helper?" He Ying sat alone in the backyard...
Yuan Lin was ordered by him to kill Xiao Chen, and then he died mysteriously. This matter was most likely related to Xiao Chen. However, how could Xiao Chen kill Yuan Lin? With Yang Song? This was absolutely impossible. Although Yang Song was strong, he was only on par with Yuan Lin. He didn't have the ability to kill Yuan Lin.
Moreover, this time, Yuan Lin took a lot of experts with him as a precaution. In terms of numbers, he should have more experts than Xiao Chen. Therefore, it was even more impossible for Yang Song to kill Yuan Lin.
But if it wasn't Yang Song, who could it be?
He Ying kept guessing in his heart, but he still couldn't figure it out. The people he sent to South Yuzhou had not returned with any news.
He Ying was very depressed, but Cang Xing was very relaxed. He was also sitting in the backyard, and Cang Xing had a faint smile on his face.
Yang Song had already told him about Yuan Lin's matter. Knowing that Yuan Lin was killed by Nangong Guan, Cang Xing was naturally happy.
Although Yuan Lin was one of the Five Sword Leaders of the Sword Sect, and his death was indeed a loss to the Sword Sect, but since they weren't on the same side, no matter how strong Yuan Lin was, it wouldn't be good for Cang Xing.
Not only would it not be good, but it would also cause a lot of trouble for Cang Xing. Therefore, Yuan Lin's death might be a loss for the Sword Sect, but it was definitely good news for Cang Xing.
Moreover, not only did Yuan Lin die, Yang Song also told Cang Xing that now, they only had to wait for Zhou Song and the others to arrive at the Family Nangong. At that time, Xiao Chen would rush to the Sword Sect.
At that time, with the support of Nangong Guan, Zhou Song, and the others, plus Cang Xing's cooperation, the possibility of Xiao Chen becoming the Sect Master of the Sword Sect was very high.
Things were developing in a good direction. Regarding this, Cang Xing's heart was naturally very relaxed. Now, he only had to wait for Xiao Chen to return to the Sword Sect. Then, everything would be settled.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen had already waited in Nangong City for five days. On this day, outside Nangong City, a middle-aged man wearing a grey robe slowly walked into the city.
This middle-aged man was travel-worn, giving people the impression that he was a Ranger, but his eyes were incomparably bright.
Walking alone into the inner city, the middle-aged man's expressionless face gradually revealed a trace of a smile, and he softly muttered, "Little Junior Brother, I didn't think that Master would accept a true disciple. I just don't know what's so special about this Little Junior Brother of mine that even Master would have a whole new level of respect for him."
This middle-aged man was impressively Xiao Chen's Third Senior Brother, Wu Huan.
Unlike Nangong Guan, Zhou Song, and Xiao Xiao, Wu Huan came from an ordinary background, and he had never joined any forces. He had only ever taken Jun Wuya as his Master. However, Wu Huan's life could be considered a legend. He was a Rogue Cultivator who did not belong to any Sect, but Wu Huan's luck was quite good.
Relying on all kinds of resources, Wu Huan really became a famous Powerhouse in the Great Thousand World despite being a Rogue Cultivator. His strength was on the same level as Nangong Guan, He Ying, and Cang Xing.
Wu Huan liked to travel all over the world and had no fixed residence, so when he received Nangong Guan's message this time, he was the first to arrive. After all, Wu Huan did not have anything to worry about, and he could leave whenever he wanted.
When he arrived at the Family Nangong's gate in the inner city, he saw Wu Huan. The few Family Nangong Powerhouses guarding the gate did not recognize him at first, but when they notified Nangong Guan, she personally came out to greet him. Of course, Xiao Chen was also with her.
In the main hall, Nangong Guan strode in with Xiao Chen, and when she saw Wu Huan sitting in the hall, she laughed loudly and said, "Haha, Third Junior Brother, I knew that you would be the first to arrive."
"It's not strange that I can come and go freely by myself," Wu Huan said with a smile.
As he spoke, Wu Huan's gaze fell on Xiao Chen. The two of them looked at each other, sizing each other up.
The feeling that Wu Huan gave Xiao Chen was that he was a very ordinary person. Compared to his Eldest Senior Brother Nangong Guan, Wu Huan did not seem to have any sense of existence, except for his extremely bright eyes.
Sensing Wu Huan's gaze, Nangong Guan also opened her mouth and introduced, "Third Junior Brother, this is Master's only Last Disciple, and also our Youngest Junior Brother, Xiao Chen."
Following Nangong Guan's introduction, Xiao Chen also cupped his hands and bowed to Wu Huan, "Xiao Chen greets Third Senior Brother."
