The young disciples below all had their mouths agape at this moment. Their faces were filled with disbelief. The huge mountain that had been pressing down on everyone's hearts had actually vanished into thin air so easily.
However, after a short period of time, a loud roar suddenly rang out. Every single one of them stared at Lin Xiu with fiery eyes. To these hot-blooded youths, Lin Xiu was now their idol. With his unparalleled strength, he had swept away all obstacles for the Immortal Martial Continent.
"Immortal Martial Emperor!"
No one knew who was the first to shout. Soon after, cheers rose and fell in succession, resounding in every corner of the mountain range. The Manifestation stage powerhouses looked at each other at this moment, a smile that had not appeared in a long time appeared on their faces.
Many of them even regretted in their hearts. If they knew that Lin Xiu was so strong, they wouldn't have been in such a hurry to establish a new sect. But thinking about it carefully, this might not be a bad thing. Lin Xiu's strength was really too strong. They believed that for a long period of time, the Immortal Martial Continent would welcome a rare period of peace.
Lin Xiu and the Eastern Sea Taoist landed lightly from the sky. Looking at the young disciples who were still excited, Lin Xiu only nodded his head and returned to the high platform.
"Everyone, the threat of the Netherworld Palace has been completely resolved. Nine Nether is dead. In the next period of time, our Immortal Martial Pavilion will send out experts to completely clean up the remaining fishermen of the Netherworld Palace. This is also a training for all of you. When the continent is completely peaceful, everyone will be rewarded according to their contributions." Lin Xiu's voice was extremely calm, but within his words, it seemed to have an extremely infectious power. The disciples below clenched their fists tightly at this moment and began to look forward to the glory of charging and breaking through enemy lines in the future war.
The following grand ceremony went smoothly. No one dared to jump out and cause trouble. After Lin Xiu gave a simple speech to encourage the disciples, he once again returned to his cave abode.
The Eastern Sea Taoist and Lin Xiu were still a little depressed at this moment. Although Nine Nether had completely disappeared, the real threat of the continent had not been resolved. One must know that the reason why Nine Nether was able to achieve what he had today was that the mysterious person behind him was silently providing power.
However, from the looks of it now, the mysterious man couldn't appear in this world with his real body, so he didn't pose much of a threat to everyone. However, the old man of Donghai always had a thought in his mind. Although Nine Nether's power was indeed very strong, there might still be hope for Wukong Daoist to survive.
"Lin Xiu, have you ever thought that since Nine Nether has obtained a sacred relic that can mend the heavens, then maybe Daoist Wu Kong is not completely dead. No matter what, the two of us have to find a way to find out and if possible, save Daoist Wu Kong." The Eastern Sea Taoist knitted his brows tightly and directly told Lin Xiu the speculation in his heart.
The latter also nodded when he heard this. For Lin Xiu, Taoist Wu Kong was his guide on the road of cultivation, and the other party's noble character was indeed worthy of everyone's respect. In order to be able to fish out the mastermind behind the scenes, he actually did not hesitate to use himself as bait. This matter touched Lin Xiu greatly.
"Nine Nether has just been dealt with, and now the stone in our hearts can finally be at ease. Regarding the matter of Taoist Wu Kong, we still have to think about it at length. Although the other party is currently in the gap between the world and the real void outside, he can't exert the strength that he should have at all. And to help Nine Nether successfully break through, he must have paid a big price for this matter. We still have a lot of time to slowly plan." The gaze that the Eastern Sea Taoist looked at Lin Xiu became more and more gentle. In his long journey of tens of thousands of years, he did not know how many talented people he had seen, but no one was as outstanding as Lin Xiu. Not only did he destroy the conspiracy of the Netherworld Palace, but he also saved the people from the disaster and walked an unprecedented path.
"Senior, now that the dust has basically settled, I think it's better for me to return to my hometown and take a look. I've been out for so long and have always been fighting and killing outside. I didn't have time to accompany my wife and child at all. To be honest, I do feel very guilty in my heart." At this time, Lin Xiu suddenly touched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly.
Of course, the Eastern Sea Taoist understood this very well, and there was no one in the current continent that could pose any threat to Lin Xiu. Since the other party wanted to return to his hometown and take a good look, of course, he had no reason to stop him.
This banquet held by the Immortal Martial Pavilion lasted for a full three days. No one knew that when night fell, Lin Xiu quietly left the place with Huo Ling'er.
The two of them flew in the air at a speed that was not very fast. At this moment, they could finally slow down and take a good look at the world. Both of them enjoyed this rare moment of tranquility.
"Lin Xiu, I really didn't expect that the young man back then would actually grow to become the hero of the entire continent. I'm proud of you." A smile appeared on Huo Ling'er's face and she held Lin Xiu's hand tightly.
In this regard, Lin Xiu also had a lot of emotions in his heart. Once upon a time, his biggest dream was to be able to rescue his mother so that his family could be reunited and live a happy and peaceful life from then on. He did not expect that in the process of constantly increasing his strength, he also shouldered the responsibility of the entire world and even walked step by step to where he was today.
And to be honest, Lin Xiu now had a bold guess in his heart. Since he had broken through to the current realm, in terms of combat strength, even if he was in the Dao Enlightenment Realm, he would still be able to contend with it. Then did that mean that he now had the ability to awaken Lin Jie from the state of the seal?
Thinking of this, Lin Xiu's heart was filled with anxiety. Huo Ling'er also knew what Lin Xiu was thinking, but she did not say much. For Huo Ling'er, when Lin Xiu encountered difficulties, all she could do was not hesitate to firmly stand behind Lin Xiu. That was enough.
Time passed in the blink of an eye. Even though Lin Xiu was burning with anxiety, in the end, he still resisted the urge to immediately rush back to Huai Ning City. All these years, he had been traveling in the continent through ups and downs, and he really owed Huo Ling'er too much.
Just like this, the two of them rushed to Huai Ning City. Sometimes when they came across a city below, they would land and have a good taste of the city's food. Unknowingly, the relationship between the two of them had become a lot closer.
Lin Xiu and Huo Ling'er had been relying on each other since Lin Xiu set foot on the road of cultivation and had been accompanying each other until now.
Without Huo Ling'er, Lin Xiu would have turned into a pile of bones long ago, and it would be impossible for him to achieve such dazzling achievements. However, Huo Ling'er was also dependent on Lin Xiu. The relationship between the two had long surpassed ordinary love and had risen to a level that no one could describe.
On this day, the two of them looked at the street below, which was constantly shouting. Huo Ling'er even smiled tightly, revealing the appearance of a little girl, and looked exceptionally shy.
Grabbing Lin Xiu's arm, Huo Ling'er took him to a stall selling candied hawthorn, then pointed to the largest skewer on the top, and said to Lin Xiu coquettishly, "Lin Xiu, I heard that you human girls especially like to eat this, I also want to try it."
Of course, Lin Xiu would satisfy this little request of his wife. Without hesitation, he bought the entire candied hawthorn stall, then looked at Huo Ling'er with a face full of joy as she tasted one by one.
Looking at Huo Ling'er like this, Lin Xiu was also extremely satisfied. This kind of quiet life had always been his dream, and he could finally achieve it.
In this way, the two of them finally returned to Huai Ning City after seven days.
The news of Lin Xiu defeating Nine Nether in the Immortal Martial Pavilion, under the intentional promotion of the major forces, had spread throughout the continent.
This also caused the Immortal Martial Continent to fall into an uproar, and many people even worshiped Lin Xiu's longevity tablet in their homes.
As Lin Xiu's hometown, the Golden City was decorated with lanterns and streamers at this moment. Everyone's face was brimming with happy smiles. Being able to live a quiet and peaceful life was something that everyone looked forward to. Moreover, the person who helped them defeat the Netherworld Palace was their fellow countryman, which made everyone in Huai Ning City full of pride.
Lin Xiu looked at the scene in the city and couldn't help but feel as if it was a lifetime ago. When he left Golden City, he was only a teenager, but after a few years, Lin Xiu now had a pair of children.
When they arrived at the Lin family, the guard at the door saw Lin Xiu and Huo Ling'er and couldn't help but breathe quickly. They were not of the Lin family's bloodline, but experts who came to the Lin family after the Lin family became prosperous over the years.
There were even many Sky Yuan experts who fought to become guests of the Lin family. The current Lin family was no longer the same as before.
And these experts dreamed of seeing Lin Xiu with their own eyes one day. If he could guide them, it would be something that would benefit them for the rest of their lives.
After respectfully inviting Lin Xiu through the door, they hurried to the backyard to report.
But Lin Xiu stopped them. The Lin family was where Lin Xiu grew up, so he was naturally extremely familiar with everything. He looked at those familiar and strange faces, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that everything was very strange.
Lin Xiu left home when he was young and returned when he was old. Although Lin Xiu often returned to the Lin family, he often left in a hurry after staying for a few days. He had never seen many people's faces before. They must be the children of those people of the same generation.
But there were still many people who recognized Lin Xiu. One by one, their faces turned red and they didn't even know what to say. Lin Xiu just nodded slightly to them, then walked toward Yang Yingxi's room.
When he returned to Huaining City this time, Lin Xiu's biggest hope was to be able to wake up Lin Jie from his deep sleep. He was full of guilt for his son.
In order to pursue further strength, he didn't see his son at all during the years when Lin Jie was growing up. Lin Jie's talent was also extremely outstanding. In order to catch up with his father's footsteps, he practiced hard day after day, but fate made a fool of him. Because the bloodline in his body was too strong, it eventually fell into a seal.
Huo Ling'er gently pushed open the door of her room. She didn't disturb Lin Xiu and Yang Yingxi's meeting, but went to find Lin Xiu's mother.
Looking at Yang Yingxi's haggard face, Lin Xiu couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart. The two of them met at the beginning, then fell in love with each other, and finally had Lin Jie. However, Lin Xiu didn't fulfill his responsibilities as a husband and a father at all. For the safety of the whole continent, he kept running around.
Lin Xiu gently stepped forward and held Yang Yingxi in his arms. He looked at her face and couldn't help kissing her forehead gently.
"I'm back."
Yang Yingxi's shoulders were slightly cold, and she buried her forehead in Lin Xiu's arms. Seeing that the person she missed day and night had finally returned, she seemed to have regained her spiritual sustenance.
The two of them looked at each other silently. In the end, Lin Xiu stood up gently and looked at Lin Jie, who was lying on the bed. At this moment, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. Then, he turned his head and said to Yang Yingxi, "I've made a breakthrough in my strength. I don't know if I can successfully wake up Jie 'er."
Yang Yingxi was also extremely excited when she heard this. She stared at her son without blinking.
How she wanted Lin Jie to wake up from the state of a seal and know that her father had successfully smashed the conspiracy of the Netherworld Palace.
After taking a deep breath, a faint blue light suddenly flashed in Lin Xiu's hand. This was the power of the Heaven Mending Holy Artifact.
However, when the green light fell into Lin Jie's body, Lin Xiu's brows furrowed even tighter. Because in the process of probing, he found that the bloodline in his son's body could no longer cause any harm to Lin Jie. However, Lin Jie still couldn't wake up. He had no idea what was going on.
"What happened to Lin Jie? I can feel that the power that devoured his vitality has completely disappeared. Logically speaking, he should have been able to wake up long ago. "Lin Xiu turned his head to look at his wife, full of confusion.
Yang Yingxi also knew nothing about this. Although she took care of her son every day, his cultivation was too low to detect what had happened in Lin Jie's body.
