Lin Xuan pushed his speed to the limit. His figure was faintly discernible between the ice trees as he sped forward.
However, Cao Shijie had already locked onto him from afar. He was only able to run five or six li before he was stopped.
Lin Xuan abruptly stopped in his tracks. He was on full alert as he coldly stared at Cao Shijie who was fifty meters away from him. His expression was somewhat ugly.
He asked in a low voice, "Cao Shijie, what are you trying to do?"
Cao Shijie stood on top of an ice tree and looked down at Lin Xuan. He coldly said, "Lin Xuan, don't worry. I won't kill you. I just want to make a deal with you!"
"What deal?" Lin Xuan's gaze was vigilant.
Cao Shijie said, "As long as you give me that knife at the last moment, not only will I save your life, I will also let you join the Keelung Sect and become a candidate for the Holy Son!"
"Haha!" Lin Xuan laughed mockingly. "Cao Shijie, what's the point of saying all this? You yourself have betrayed the Keelung Sect. Who knows, you might become a stray dog in the near future. What right do you have to let me join the Keelung Sect and become a candidate for the Holy Son? "
"I've betrayed the Keelung Sect? Haha, hahaha, what a joke! "
Cao Shijie laughed twice and said with a cold expression, "Lin Xuan, you must have heard Mu Qingning's one-sided story to have such thoughts, right?"
"Isn't that so?" Lin Xuan coldly laughed.
"Of course not!" Cao Shijie's gaze was cold as he said somewhat emotionally, "Mu Qingning and the group behind her are simply short-sighted and drinking poison to quench their thirst!
They naively thought that by killing that monster, they could stabilize the situation!
However, once that monster died, the Eight Tribes of the Dragons clan would definitely reappear in this world. They were completely digging their own graves!
And you, Lin Xuan, will become a sinner for all eternity. You will forever be nailed to the pillar of shame of the human race, and your name will go down in infamy for thousands of years! "
Huh?
Lin Xuan couldn't help but be stunned. Regarding Cao Shijie's words, of course, he didn't completely believe them. However, it seemed that there was more to it than met the eye!
"Enough!"
A cold voice sounded.
Lin Xuan turned around and saw that Mu Qingning had appeared behind him.
Mu Qingning looked at Cao Shijie coldly. "Cao Shijie, this matter was voted on by all the higher-ups of the Keelung Sect. You and the people behind you should know what it means to lose a bet!
The Dragon Soul Hall is now too big, and is about to go beyond the control of our seven great forces. If that monster doesn't die, this land will be pushed back again!
A short pain is better than a long pain!
Even if the Eight Tribes of the Dragons clan reappear, they won't be a match for our human race. They will be much easier to deal with than that monster! "
Cao Shijie sneered disdainfully. "Hahaha! Mu Qingning, this is just your wishful thinking! Although the Eight Tribes of the Dragons clan have been suppressed for tens of thousands of years, who knows what their current situation is? What if they didn't decline and instead become stronger? How will we deal with it then? Can you resurrect the Human Emperor? "
"Hmph! Cao Shijie, the Eight Tribes of the Dragons clan have been trapped for tens of thousands of years. Who knows, they might have already perished. Your words are completely speculative! Besides, we may not be able to resurrect the Human Emperor, but we can reforge the Extinction Dragon Rope! What is there to be afraid of just a few remnants of the Dragons clan? "
As Mu Qingning spoke, she inadvertently glanced at Lin Xuan. A strange light flashed in her eyes, as if there was something she didn't want Lin Xuan to know.
Cao Shijie laughed disdainfully. "Hahaha! Mu Qingning, isn't this just wishful thinking on your part? Isn't it just speculation? Well, it's useless to say more. Let's see who's the real deal! Whoever wins, that saber will belong to him! But before that, let me get rid of this kid first! "
Boom!
The moment he finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared.
Lin Xuan's eyelids twitched. A strong sense of crisis surged in his heart. He did not hesitate to activate the Immemorial Golden Body and retreat.
"With me here, you can't kill him!"
Mu Qingning also made her move!
Bang bang!
Two muffled sounds!
Lin Xuan instantly felt a punch on his chest. The huge force caused him to fly backward involuntarily.
At the same time, Cao Shijie was also hit by Mu Qingning's palm. He retreated more than ten meters and coldly confronted Mu Qingning.
Perhaps it was because of Mu Qingning's obstruction that Cao Shijie was unable to exert his full strength. That punch did not break through Lin Xuan's defense.
After Lin Xuan landed, he quickly turned over and stood up. His eyes were alert. He slowly moved behind Mu Qingning, secretly holding a poison gall in his hand.
"You leave first! I'll stop him! "Mu Qingning said to Lin Xuan.
"Okay!"
Lin Xuan turned around and ran without hesitation. He used Space-Piercing Flash repeatedly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Cao Shijie's face was full of hatred. He seemed to want to chase after him, but he was stopped by Mu Qingning. The two of them exchanged blows and soon fought. Within a radius of fifty meters, astral winds scattered, rolling up snow and ice. The momentum was very shocking.
Lin Xuan was expressionless. He ran down the mountain at full speed. He had no interest in the God Astral Realm battle behind him.
Gradually, the commotion behind him faded away.
Lin Xuan slowed down. His eyes flickered and hundreds of thoughts ran through his mind.
From the conversation between Cao Shijie and Mu Qingning, he understood a lot of information, but it made him even more confused.
Generally speaking, it seemed that the Keelung Sect was divided into two factions. One faction wanted to kill the son of the Dragon God and destroy the Dragon Soul Hall.
The other faction didn't want the son of the Dragon God to die. It seemed that it was because the son of the Dragon God had been suppressing the eight divisions of the Dragons clan.
"Could it be that the son of the Dragon God is not in cahoots with the Dragons clan?"
Lin Xuan was very puzzled.
Based on his understanding of the Dragon Soul Hall, this force believed in the Dragon God and existed to repeat the glory of the Dragons clan.
But today, it seemed that there was something he didn't know about.
It would be good if he could find someone to ask.
But he knew that he definitely couldn't ask Mu Qingning.
That woman looked cold, but in fact, she was very scheming and cunning. It would be difficult to get the truth from her.
Lin Xuan was running when suddenly, something fell from his waist.
He stopped and picked it up. It was a memory crystal ball the size of a thumb.
"Hmm? Cao Shijie? Why did he give this to me? "
Lin Xuan's eyes flashed. He quickly realized that Cao Shijie must have given this to him during the chaos.
He probed it with his spiritual energy and quickly understood what was inside.
Cao Shijie might have known that it would be difficult for him to control the direction of the situation, so he placed his hopes on Lin Xuan.
He pleaded with Lin Xuan in the crystal ball, asking him not to kill the son of the Dragon God for the sake of humanity, but he had to kill one person...
"Heh, ridiculous! What kind of person do you take me for? "
After Lin Xuan finished reading, the corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile. With a snap, he crushed the crystal ball.
To him, the Dragons clan of the human race and the Dragon Soul Hall of the Keelung Sect were nothing. They were nothing more than a few major forces of the human race fighting for power.
Was there a true dragon in the Dragon Soul Hall?
