"Yanran, I've made you suffer these past few years."
Lin Xuan hugged the girl's delicate body tightly and said tenderly.
Zhao Yanran didn't say anything and only shook her head slightly. She hugged Lin Xuan even tighter, as if this man would disappear if she let go.
But at this moment, the shrew jumped out again and interrupted the two of them.
She snorted coldly and said sarcastically, "Hmph, Zhao Yanran, you're really a slut who can sleep with anyone. You're so shameless in public. You're a disgrace to the Zhao family!"
Zhao Yanran heard this and seemed to finally remember that they were on the street. She blushed and reluctantly wriggled out of Lin Xuan's arms.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel even more annoyed at this moment. He looked coldly at the shrew and said, "Reckless thing! Since you're in a hurry to reincarnate, I'll fulfill your wish! "
"Brother Lin, don't!"
Zhao Yanran hurriedly stopped Lin Xuan.
"Hmm?" Lin Xuan was stunned and asked, "Who is this woman?"
Zhao Yanran said helplessly, "She's Zhao Dongzhi, the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family on the Dragon King Island of the Blackwater Alliance. She's the same ancestor as the Zhao family of the Golden Roc Fort. Brother Lin, let's go in. Don't bother with her. "
Zhao Dongzhi snorted disdainfully and said harshly, "Hmph, who's the same ancestor as a slut like you? You're just a lowly bastard! Also, your wild man killed my guard. I will definitely ask the Patriarch to uphold justice for this matter. You can just wait to be expelled from the clan! "
Zhao Yanran's pretty face darkened and said coldly, "Zhao Dongzhi, don't go too far! I've tolerated you for a long time. If you continue to pester endlessly, don't blame me for being rude! "
"Hmph! So what if you're rude … "
Bang!
Before Zhao Dongzhi could finish speaking, a powerful fist instantly smashed into her head. The protective light barrier formed by the Tier 4 Spirit Talisman shattered with a bang. Following that, Zhao Dongzhi's head exploded like a watermelon, brain juice splattering everywhere.
A strand of her soul flew out of her body. She looked at her own body in disbelief, then looked at Lin Xuan. She screamed in fear and hurriedly ran away.
Without a doubt, the one who made the move was Lin Xuan.
Seeing that Zhao Dongzhi's soul was about to escape, he snorted disdainfully. He casually waved his hand and sent out a strand of baleful soul energy to annihilate Zhao Dongzhi's soul.
"This kind of disgusting fly, if I don't swat her to death, I'd be letting her down," Lin Xuan said indifferently.
"Big Brother Lin … sigh." Seeing this, Zhao Yanran sighed softly.
"Don't worry, Big Brother Lin Xuan will take care of everything. You don't have to go back to that Dragon King Island's Zhao Family. Just follow me to the North Barren." Lin Xuan smiled.
"Mm."
Zhao Yanran nodded and smiled sweetly at Lin Xuan.
Although she and her brother, Zhao Kun, had sought refuge in Dragon King Island's Zhao Family for the past few years, they didn't have a good time. The siblings were ostracized and targeted by the Zhao Family. They suffered all kinds of supercilious looks and cold treatment.
A year ago, Zhao Kun narrowly escaped death and made a great contribution to the Zhao Family. However, he was only rewarded with this River Suppression Tower.
Even so, many people in the Zhao Family couldn't stand it and often came to the River Suppression Tower to find trouble.
As for this Zhao Dongzhi, just because her husband, Qiao Dongjun, looked at Zhao Yanran a few more times, she hated Zhao Yanran to the bone. Every few days, she would come to the River Suppression Tower to find trouble. If it weren't for Zhao Yanran's good management, the River Suppression Tower would have collapsed long ago.
However, people had no choice but to lower their heads under the eaves. Although Zhao Yanran hated the Zhao Family to the extreme, she could only grit her teeth and endure.
Now that Lin Xuan had returned, she seemed to have found her backbone. With regards to Zhao Dongzhi's death, she only felt endless joy. The gloominess of the past few years was swept away.
She instructed a few River Suppression Tower's stewards, "Deal with the body and send someone to the island to send a message. Ask my brother to come back immediately!"
"Yes, Miss."
A few stewards immediately busied themselves.
"Big Brother Lin, follow me. Take a look at the things I have prepared for you." Zhao Yanran smiled mysteriously and pulled Lin Xuan's big hand and Megatron's small hand as if there was no one around. They walked into the River Suppression Tower.
"Oh? I wonder what good things Yanran has prepared for me? "Lin Xuan asked with interest.
"You'll know in a while," Zhao Yanran said excitedly.
Seeing Lin Xuan and Zhao Yanran enter, the surrounding guests could not help but discuss animatedly. They looked at Lin Xuan's back with curiosity and reverence.
"Who is this person? He's so intimate with Miss Zhao! "
"Tsk! You're really ignorant! Miss Zhao only has one man, and that's Lin Xuan, the sect leader of the River Sect! "
"So this person is Lin Xuan! What tyrannical strength! "
"Lin Xuan? Why does this name sound so familiar? "
Someone in the crowd pricked up his ears to listen for a while before quietly retreating …
Not long after, the news of Lin Xuan's return spread around Fish Dragon Town and even the entire Jiang District.
As for Lin Xuan, some people who did not leave the town might only remember him as the sect leader of the River Sect six years ago.
However, some well-informed people connected him to the Northern Wilderness' Sage King and the gravedigger of the Daqian dynasty.
Such a powerful person's appearance in Jiang District naturally caused a huge commotion.
Black Iron City, on the ninth floor of the Dragon-sealing Pagoda.
An old man with a simple face and a celestial aura sat cross-legged in the middle of the formation. He held a tortoiseshell with mysterious patterns in his hands as if he had turned into an eternal stone statue.
Suddenly, the old man opened his eyes, and two threatening rays of light flashed across them.
At that moment, hurried footsteps were heard from the staircase.
"Venerable One, we're here to see you!"
"Come in!" Venerable One Qing Xuan said calmly.
The next moment, four experts walked in and bowed respectfully to Venerable One Qing Xuan.
One of the old men said excitedly, "Venerable One, good news! Lin Xuan has appeared! He's now at the River Suppression Tower in Fish Dragon Town. Many people have seen him! "
Another person also said excitedly, "Venerable One, Lin Xuan has always been elusive. We've sent out countless people but still couldn't catch him. Xingyun and the others haven't returned yet. I'm afraid they've also failed.
Now that Lin Xuan has come to our Keelung Sect's doorstep, we can't let him escape this time! I request to bring people to battle. We must capture Lin Xuan! "
"When a lion fights a rabbit, it must use all its strength! I suggest that the four of us Guardians of the Transcendent State act together. This time, we must make sure nothing goes wrong! "
"That's right! This old man thinks so too! "
Now that the people of the Keelung Sect were divided, and each palace and court was doing their own thing, the headquarters could only dispatch a few people.
However, the remaining people were Qing Xuan's loyal subordinates. They agreed with Qing Xuan's philosophy and were very enthusiastic about reforging the divine weapon, the Extinction Dragon Rope. They believed that once the divine weapon was reforged, the Keelung Sect could quickly rise again.
However, Qing Xuan's reaction to their excited words was a little strange.
There was no joy on Qing Xuan's face. Instead, he looked a little worried and sighed.
One of the Guardians saw that something was wrong with Qing Xuan and asked in confusion, "Venerable One, now that Lin Xuan is about to be captured, our big plan is about to succeed. Why are you sighing?"
Venerable One Qing Xuan shook his head and said bitterly, "I'm sighing because I'm afraid a great calamity is about to befall our Keelung Sect."
"What? Why does Venerable One say that? "
Everyone couldn't help but be shocked.
Venerable One Qing Xuan looked at the floating clouds outside the window and said faintly, "Lin Xuan may be young, but he has a tenacious heart and is more cunning than others. He always does things flawlessly. More importantly, he has an unprecedented heaven-defying luck. If we underestimate this kind of person, we will suffer a great loss.
Now that he has appeared in Jiangzhou without any disguise, at the doorstep of our Keelung Sect, do you think this is just a coincidence? "
"This … Venerable One, don't you think too highly of Lin Xuan? Maybe he has been used to everything these years and has become arrogant and conceited. That's why he doesn't disguise himself. "One of the Guardians said unconvinced.
Venerable One Qing Xuan sighed and said, "I hope so."
"Venerable One, what should we do next?" One of them asked.
Qing Xuan pondered and said, "No matter if he is arrogant or confident, with his current performance, it is very likely that he will target our Keelung Sect headquarters. Immediately send an order to all the palaces and courtyards. Have everyone above the Heavenly Transformation Realm come to Black Iron City and wait for orders! This time, we will act quietly and see what tricks he has up his sleeve! "
"This …"
The four Guardians looked at each other in dismay.
With the Keelung Sect's current situation, no one could say for sure how many of the palaces and courtyards were willing to listen to orders.
Moreover, with such a lineup, wasn't it making a mountain out of a molehill to deal with a mere late-stage Heavenly Transformation Realm martial artist?
