The battle was over. The people of the Keelung Sect had either died or fled. Those who didn't die or didn't manage to escape in time had all become Lin Xuan's captives.
"Lin Xuan, are you alright?"
Shui Qianxun, Ji Xueyan, Ji Wenfeng, and the others gathered around and looked at Lin Xuan with strange gazes.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was very miserable. His entire body was emaciated, and it was as if a layer of skin was draped over his skeleton.
If they hadn't seen Lin Xuan's transformation with their own eyes, perhaps no one would have recognized him.
"I'm fine. Thank you all for today's matter!" Lin Xuan said in a hoarse voice.
Shui Qianxun smiled strangely and said, "Lin Xuan, you look like an old skeleton of the Bone Demon Sect now. You're comparable to Li Tianxiao."
Lin Xuan smiled helplessly and said, "I've used up a lot of energy. I'll leave the rest to you. I need to recover first."
"Mm, don't worry about it. However … "Shui Qianxun hesitated and asked," Do you want to take this opportunity to counterattack the Heavenly Secret Courtyard and completely pull out this nail? "
Lin Xuan glanced at the people around him and saw that after the battle, their side had suffered heavy casualties. Everyone was exhausted and their morale had declined.
He shook his head and said, "Forget it. The Keelung Sect isn't a small sect after all. We don't know much about the layout of the Heavenly Secret Courtyard. It's better to be cautious. If we want to drive the Keelung Sect out of Heavenly Tripod City, we don't necessarily have to fight to the death. "
As he said that, he looked at the captives of the Keelung Sect with a playful smile.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, but they quickly recovered and smiled knowingly.
As long as they did something to these captives, it wouldn't be difficult to drive the Keelung Sect out of Heavenly Tripod City.
Lin Xuan couldn't be bothered with the rest of the matters, leaving them all to Cao Tianying, Yan Hui, and the others.
Earlier, even though utilizing the Devil Lotus Seal to slaughter was extremely satisfying, the price he paid was extremely great as well. Not only had he exhausted all his energy of creation, he'd even exhausted 80% of the vital energy in his body. Moreover, his Origin Palace was completely empty, causing his body to practically become an empty shell.
At this moment, he had already lost 90% of his strength. If someone harbored ill intentions, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't fail miserably.
He temporarily bid farewell to the crowd and walked into a small courtyard in the depths of the Hundred Swords Sect.
Under his orders, the disciples of the Hundred Swords Sect brought 30 Class 2 Ferocious Beasts in cages and placed them in the courtyard.
Lin Xuan sat down cross-legged and impatiently started casting the [Spirit Infusion Seal]. He devoured the essence of the beasts one by one, trying his best to replenish the lost blood essence in his body.
As time passed, the Ferocious Beasts disappeared one by one, while Lin Xuan's emaciated body began to gradually recover. His vital energy became abundant.
After devouring the majestic vital energy of the 30 Class 2 Ferocious Beasts, his body finally recovered to its peak state.
The sky was already bright as the sun rose from the east, illuminating the earth with its rays.
Lin Xuan stood up and exhaled. He felt the abundant energy in his body and finally felt a sense of security.
He looked up at the floating clouds in the sky and sorted out everything that had happened during this period of time in his mind.
During this period of time, his pace had been very fast, so fast that it was somewhat beyond his expectations. It even felt a little surreal.
Subduing the Snow Leopard Army, subduing the Hundred Swords Sect, becoming the Sect Master of the Magic Lotus Sect, announcing the video of Chong Shen Hall, and defeating the geniuses and elites of the Keelung Sect.
All these things were rapidly strengthening his strength and increasing his prestige.
In a very short period of time, he had gone from being a stray dog wanted by two super forces to an upstart in the martial arts world who had skyrocketed to the Ninth Heavens. He now had great fame and strength.
If it were an ordinary person, they would have been immersed in countless praises and envy, unable to extricate themselves.
However, Lin Xuan was not an ordinary person. He came from the lowest rung of society and had lived two lives. He had wisdom and determination that ordinary young people did not have.
He knew very well that although he looked like a cluster of flowers and brocade, all of this was like a castle in the air. It was all an illusion.
In this world where martial arts were respected, only one's own strength was the most real thing.
He had been able to get to where he was now, seemingly smoothly, but in fact, he was treading on thin ice. Every step he took was filled with danger. One wrong step and he could be consigned to eternal damnation.
The main reason was that his foundation was too shallow. He could not afford to lose and could not afford to make a single mistake.
Now, he had won a big battle against the Keelung Sect, but this was far from the end. It was just the beginning.
With the Keelung Sect's strong foundation, it would not be long before they made a comeback. Moreover, they would definitely be more ferocious and their methods more unpredictable.
More importantly, he had relied on too many external forces to get to where he was today, and these forces might not be reliable forever.
"It's time to calm down and settle down for a while. A weak foundation will always be a big problem. "
Lin Xuan exhaled lightly, and a trace of determination flashed between his eyebrows.
Next, he planned to go into seclusion for a period of time to completely digest all the resources in his hands and transform them into his own strength. This would allow his strength to reach a higher level and strengthen his foundation.
Of course, before he went into seclusion, he still had some things to arrange.
He glanced at Wu Huan, who was guarding the door. Wu Huan immediately walked over respectfully and bowed. "Master, what orders do you have?"
"Let Cao Tianying, Yan Hui, Jing Wushang and the others wait for me in the Assembly Hall."
"As you command!"
Wu Huan accepted the order and left.
Lin Xuan stood up and wanted to go into his room to wash up. However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered a beautiful figure in white pacing back and forth outside the courtyard. Her beautiful little face was full of worry.
Mu Qingxue?
Lin Xuan's eyes moved, and he walked out.
Seeing Lin Xuan come out, Mu Qingxue's delicate body trembled. Her beautiful eyes looked at him with a complicated expression. Her dark red little mouth opened and closed, but she did not speak.
Lin Xuan saw that her face was a little haggard and her eyes were a little red and swollen. He could not help but feel sorry for her.
He slowly walked forward and raised his hand to tuck a strand of her messy hair behind her ear. He said softly, "Xue 'er, it's been hard on you."
"Lin Xuan! You big bad guy! Wuwuwu! "
Mu Qingxue's eyes reddened. She threw herself into Lin Xuan's arms, her small fists pounding on Lin Xuan's chest as she sobbed softly.
Lin Xuan bitterly smiled and hugged the beauty tightly in his arms. He sighed softly.
He and the Keelung Sect were already irreconcilable. The conflict between them was irreconcilable. Mu Qingxue was stuck between the two sides, and her situation was the most difficult.
On one side was the sect that had taught her martial arts, and on the other side was the man she loved. It was really too difficult for an eighteen -year-old girl to choose.
"Lin Xuan, I don't know what to do. Wuwuwu! I really don't know what I can do! Wuwuwu! "
Lin Xuan looked at the beauty in his arms and sighed inwardly. This girl who had always been strong had finally revealed her weak side. She was so weak that it made his heart ache.
He smiled warmly and said, "Xue 'er, we still have a long way to go in life.
I, the Keelung Sect, and everything in this world may just be a scenery in your martial arts career.
Some choices may be difficult, but if you look back three to five years later, or thirty to fifty years later, it may not be so difficult.
