"Spread the news. Tell everyone that I, Ling Xian, am protecting the Wang Clan."
At those words, the man began to sweat profusely. He knew that the Zhao Clan had kicked a steel board. Then, he didn't dare to stay any longer and rolled out of the study room like a ball.
This made Gong Suo Xin shake her head and laugh. But in the next second, her smile disappeared and she said coldly, "Master Ling sure is powerful. You can even protect the Wang Clan."
"Am I … not qualified to say that?"
Ling Xian softly grinned. He wasn't being arrogant. He was merely stating a fact.
A fact that was hard to believe, yet real.
Gong Suo Xin was silent. She knew that Ling Xian was right. If he could destroy the Hall of Demons, why couldn't he protect the Wang Clan?
With his capabilities today, he had the right to say that!
"You truly have the capability to protect the Wang Clan. But does the Wang Clan need your protection?" Gong Suo Xin glared at Ling Xian, her expression was cold.
"Why are you doing this?"
Ling Xian smiled warmly, "I know you are stubborn and you don't want to owe me any more favors. But the Wang Clan is in trouble internally and externally. Why are you forcing yourself?"
"Without you, I can solve those problems." Gong Suo Xin's expression remained cold, but her tone softened.
"But, it will be troublesome."
Ling Xian softly grinned, "With my name here, no one will dare to cause trouble. This is a simple matter. Why make a big fuss?"
Hearing this, Gong Suo Xin was silent.
She knew that Ling Xian was right. With his name here, unless her enemies don't want to live anymore, they won't dare to make an enemy out of her.
After all, he single-handedly destroyed the Hall of Demons. Who dares to go against him?
"Oh well, I owe you another favor."
Sighing, Gong Suo Xin retracted her coldness and returned to her flirtatious self. She grinned, "The more I owe you, the more favors I will owe you. How about I give myself to you?"
Then, she walked over and drew circles on Ling Xian's chest with her slender fingers. Her breath smelled like orchids, "As long as you nod, we … can consummate our marriage tonight."
Hearing this flirtatious statement, Ling Xian bitterly chuckled. Even with his calmness, his entire body was heated up by Gong Suo Xin.
"Stop fooling around. Let's talk business."
Ling Xian scolded in a low voice. He thought Gong Suo Xin would stop there, but she was getting bolder and bolder. She reached her hand into his chest.
Her soft, boneless hands caressed his chest, making him feel unbearably hot.
He had no choice but to appear on another chair in a flash and said, "Stop fooling around. We have important matters to attend to."
"What could be more important than our wedding night?" Gong Suo Xin smiled. Her smile was alluring and captivating.
"I have found a way to unlock the Lock of Eternity." Ling Xian ignored her teasing and took out the Inhibition Breaking Chains from his storage pouch.
Instantly, Gong Suo Xin's body quivered, "Really?"
"When have I ever lied to you?"
Ling Xian softly grinned and raised the chains in his hand, "This item is called the Inhibition Breaking Chains. It can break the Lock of Eternity inside your body."
"If I can break it, then I will owe you another favor." Gong Suo Xin's eyes rolled around. There was some flirting and some desire.
"Okay, let's begin."
Ling Xian erased his smile and said in a low voice, "Open your mind."
Hearing this, Gong Suo Xin closed her eyes and tried her best to relax. She did not resist.
Seeing this, Ling Xian pointed between her brows. The thin chains turned into red light and entered her ocean of consciousness.
Different from most people's oceans of consciousness that are bright, Gong Suo Xin's ocean of consciousness was pitch black. Like an endless abyss, there was no light.
But before her eyes, there was light. There was hope.
The moment the Inhibition Breaking Chains entered her ocean of consciousness, it displayed its miraculous power. It chased away the endless darkness and her ocean of consciousness returned to normal.
Time passed by little by little.
After around two hours, the Inhibition Breaking Chains turned into red light and disappeared. The restraining power of the Lock of Eternity was also gone.
Next, Gong Suo Xin exploded with a wave of energy. Like waves slapping against the shore, it expanded in all directions.
Ling Xian wasn't surprised at this.
Instead, he was ecstatic. Though Gong Suo Xin was trapped by the Lock of Eternity and could not increase her cultivation level, she never gave up after all these years and continued to train every single day. All of this energy she gained from training was hidden inside her body.
Now that the Lock of Eternity was gone, this accumulated energy naturally exploded and helped her soar!
HOMMM!
Heavenly energy filled the air and Gong Suo Xin's Qi climbed. Very quickly, she broke through to the choosing realm and stopped at the intermediate stage.
This made Ling Xian very happy. He didn't think that not only would he solve the Lock of Eternity, he would also help her break through to the intermediate stage. This was something worth celebrating.
"My talent is finally back …"
The corner of Gong Suo Xin's lips curled up and she revealed a happy smile. She landed before Ling Xian and grinned, "Tell me, how do you want me to repay you?"
Then, she suddenly whispered into Ling Xian's ear, "I have nothing but my pure body. I wonder if you want to try it?"
Hearing this, Ling Xian smiled helplessly and appeared behind her.
"Stop fooling around. Let's talk business."
Ling Xian spoke, "I came back with a few goals. One is to lift the Lock of Eternity for you. Two is to find a way to break through. Three is because someone asked me to find a woman."
Pausing, he continued, "I have completed the first goal. You don't need to worry about the second. I hope you can help me with these three."
"Find a woman?" Gong Suo Xin's eyes darted around and she teased, "Could it be your lover?"
"What are you thinking? If I don't agree to this, I won't get the Inhibition Breaking Chains." Ling Xian bitterly smiled.
"I see. Then tell me. I will help you with this." Gong Suo Xin agreed.
"Announce to the world that I want to take a woman as my apprentice. There are no restrictions on her age or talent. The only condition is that she must have three red moles under her feet."
Ling Xian spoke in a low voice. This was the best idea he could come up with.
There were far too many people in the Taoism community. Finding one person was like finding a needle in a haystack. It was impossible. Only by relying on his current fame could he make the person with a red mole take the initiative to approach him. That was the only way.
With his fame today, it would be hard for anyone to say no.
After all, he was now the ruler of the Taoism community. With such a powerhouse as his Master, who wouldn't be tempted?
"Not a bad idea. Leave it to me."
Gong Suo Xin smiled brightly, "With your fame now, I bet once the news gets out, countless women will come knocking on my door."
Hearing this, Ling Xian grinned. He was about to say something when he was interrupted by a knock on the door.
"Come in." Gong Suo Xin raised an eyebrow.
A guard slowly walked in. His face was full of shock as if he couldn't digest the shocking news.
Seeing this, Gong Suo Xin frowned, "Could it be that the Zhao Clan and the Cui Clan are attacking together?"
"No, no, the Cui and Zhao Clan leaders are outside, but …" The guard shook his head in a hurry and uttered out a statement full of shock.
"But they said they are here to apologize."
