When Kings Do Not Meet

"Buzz!"

The space rippled slightly, and two figures appeared out of thin air.

"Huh? Has everyone been evacuated?"

Looking down at the empty Crimson Basin, Lin Dong was about to speak when an Ancient Symbol flashed between his brows, and a flood of information surged into his mind.

Ying Xiaoxiao and Wang Yan have entered the Half-step Life Mysterious Stage... Most of the Yuan Sect disciples have been slaughtered... Yuan Cang, along with over two hundred remaining disciples of the Yuan Sect, are hiding in various places... The Dao Sect is currently pursuing them...

"Not a single remnant of the Yuan Sect can be spared."

Lin Dong subtly rubbed his temples.

"The Ice Master that Senior Fen Tian mentioned is actually Ying Huanhuan, right? Ying Huanhuan is the Reincarnation of the Ice Master."

Suddenly, a clear and melodious, cool voice rang in my ears.

"Hmm, how did you know?"

Lin Dong collected his thoughts and nodded slightly.

"Intuition."

A graceful figure, with an aloof and ethereal air, uttered two words in a cold voice.

With a girl's innate intuition, she had long noticed that the Dao Sect Little Princess who had been behaving intimately with Lin Dong was no ordinary person. However, she did not expect that she was a Reincarnator, and the Reincarnation of the Ice Master, the head of the Eight Masters.

"Your intuition is pretty accurate. What's the next step?"

Lin Dong smiled, offered no further comment, and casually changed the subject.

The special skill of having a harem is for kings not to meet, and only a fool would mention another woman in front of one woman.

"I'm going to the Supreme Pure Immortal Pool, the place where an ancient powerful figure with some connection to my Nine Heavens Supreme Pure Palace passed away. His Remains deep in the earth, forming an energy pool with mild medicinal properties."

"Because I forcibly broke through to the Life Mysterious Stage, I have some hidden injuries left in my body. I want to use the power of the Supreme Pure Immortal Pool to repair these injuries."

The quick-witted Ling Qingzhu continued speaking.

"I'll go with you. Everything is fine with most of the sects right now."

Lin Dong stared intently at Ling Qingzhu, his eyes filled with aggression.

"Whatever you want."

Seemingly unable to bear such scorching gazes, Ling Qingzhu turned her head away, twisted her delicate body, and transformed into a streak of green light, disappearing into the sky.

"Hmm, at the Life Mysterious Stage, Minor Achievement and the Minor Achievement Immortal Talisman Master, my cultivation has now officially surpassed hers, right?"

Lin Dong stroked his chin and thought for a while before speeding up to catch up.

Deep within the Chaotic Demon Region, an unnamed valley stands alone, within which a pool of water displaying seven colors radiates extremely rich energy fluctuations.

"I need to go into the pool to heal my wounds. You stay outside and keep watch for me."

On the mountain wall, a barefoot beauty standing on Green Lotus spoke thus.

"No rush, let's deal with those two rats following us first."

Lin Dong reached out to stop Ling Qingzhu, turned his gaze to a shadowy spot outside the valley, and laughed, "You two have been following us all the way, aren't you going to show yourselves?"

"Heh heh, this kid has such keen senses."

As the eerie laughter subsided, two figures emerged strangely from the shadows.

The two middle-aged men in black robes bore a resemblance and were reasonably handsome, but the lewd smiles on their lips ruined their overall image. They were both looking at Ling Qingzhu with lewd expressions.

The occasional powerful fluctuations emanating from their bodies indicated that the two were by no means weak.

"The two of them should be the infamous Yang Brothers, Yang Zhan and Yang Wei. Both are Half-step Life Mysterious Stage experts and are extremely fond of women. They are wanted by the Super Sect because they preyed on young and beautiful female disciples of the major sects in the Eastern Xuan Region."

"Therefore, they had no choice but to seek refuge in this extremely dangerous Chaotic Demon Region. I heard that the two of them also happened to enter another famous Ancient Treasury in the Chaotic Demon Region — the Martial Emperor Ancient Treasury, and obtained the inheritance of the Ancient Expert Martial Emperor, which is quite troublesome."

Ling Qingzhu frowned slightly, clearly quite disgusted by the two people's offense.

"Heh heh, I didn't expect the name of the Yang Brothers to have spread throughout the entire Eastern Xuan Region. Hey kid, hand over the beauty beside you, and we two brothers will spare your dog's life."

The middle-aged man in black robes on the left let out a strange laugh.

"You're asking for it!"

Ling Qingzhu clenched her jade-like hand, and a three-foot-long azure weapon enveloped in a dense azure light appeared in her palm, exceptionally sharp.

"Let me do it. It'll be a good opportunity to test my combat strength after the breakthrough. Wait a few minutes, I'll be done soon."

Lin Dong smiled and stepped into the air, saying, "Giving up the beauty isn't out of the question, as long as you can withstand one of my moves, how about it?"

"Kid, you? Do you think you're qualified? It's good to be a hero and save a damsel in distress, but don't get yourself into trouble."

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhan, the eldest of the Yang Brothers, burst into laughter.

"Of course, it's me!"

The black-clad youth, standing with his hands behind his back, straightened his body, and an immense and terrifying pressure immediately spread rapidly across the field like a tidal wave, causing the Yang Brothers to blush and subconsciously take two steps back.

Life Mysterious Stage, Minor Achievement!

"A true expert at the Life Mysterious Stage?!"

The exclamation fell, and the Yang Brothers, who quickly stopped in their tracks, felt a sinking feeling in their hearts. Damn it, they had probably kicked a hornet's nest this time.

The reason the Yang Brothers were able to roam freely in the Chaotic Demon Region for so many years was that they never provoked those they shouldn't have, lest they bring about their own demise.

The young man in front of me, a powerful cultivator in his early twenties at the Life Mysterious Stage, is not only incredibly strong, but also possesses a terrifying background, undoubtedly ranking among the top eight.

Getting involved with such a prodigy means endless trouble and disaster.

"Your Excellency, we brothers have been very rude just now. Please forgive us. We will leave now."

Realizing what had happened, Yang Wei and his companion gave an embarrassed smile and hurriedly bowed and apologized.

"No need for apologies. I've heard that you two brothers possess the Martial Emperor's Martial Emperor Canon, and I'd like to test my skills against you. If you can withstand one of my moves, I'll let you go."

Lin Dong waved his hand with a smile, but his cold words were so domineering that there was no room for refusal: accept or die.

"Very well, then I'll have to offend you!"

Yang Wei and his companion exchanged a glance and both nodded fiercely.

Both of them are Half-step Life Mysterious Stage experts, biological brothers, with a shared understanding and are skilled in combined attacks. In addition, they possess powerful martial arts such as the Martial Emperor Canon.

Having spent many years in the Eastern Xuan Region, his combat experience is incredibly rich.

With the two of them working together, how could they possibly be unable to withstand even a single move from a novice Life Mysterious Stage, Minor Achievement? Why not grit their teeth and kill him completely? At that time, wouldn't the beauty obediently fall into their hands? At worst, they could just hide in the Chaotic Demon Region and never come out.

"Hehe, let's do it! Let's kill this idiot together!"

A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Yang Brothers, and their overwhelming Origin Energy surged outwards, then quickly merged together, transforming into a tall, somewhat blurry gray shadow behind them.

"Martial Emperor Canon, Shattering Fist!"

With a roar, the two brothers, who were of one mind, simultaneously threw a punch.
