Chapter 15

"Lin Xuan, Brother Lin Xuan!"

Lin Xuan, who was about to reach the Life and Death Arena, paused completely when he heard the voice.

The next second, he quickly turned around.

He saw a graceful figure coming like the wind, instantly throwing herself into his arms.

The young woman was slender and graceful, already showing signs of maturity. Lin Xuan, a man with two lifetimes of experience, felt a slight stirring at that moment.

Of course, this fleeting thought was not enough to shake Lin Xuan's state of mind.

"Little Yu'er, why are you here? How is your health? What realm have you cultivated to?"

Lin Xuan quickly shifted his attention, asking the questions he cared about most.

Lu Xun, who had been chasing after Yu Bing, frowned at this scene, a flash of murderous intent disappearing from his eyes.

"Hmph... what a waste of a good appearance, to actually be a Useless Body for ten thousand years. Never mind, seeing as you're about to die, I can't be bothered to argue with you."

Lu Xun muttered in his heart, trying his best to soothe his mind.

At this time, Yu Bing felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing Lin Xuan's inquiry.

However, she didn't answer, but anxiously said, "Brother Lin Xuan, quickly stop the challenge! I'll personally go to the Duties Pavilion to explain."

"So you already know!"

Lin Xuan's heart also warmed, but he shook his head. "Little Yu'er, don't worry, I'll be fine. That Niu Fang, I'll kill him."

Lin Xuan spoke with confidence, which made Lu Xun feel displeased.

"What makes you think you can? Just because you're a Useless Body?"

Before Yu Bing could speak, Lu Xun spoke first.

Only then did Lin Xuan notice Lu Xun. Seeing the same clothing on him as Yu Bing, he frowned.

"Who are you? What are you doing following my wife? Planning something untoward?"

Lu Xun glared, momentarily stunned.

Yu Bing's pretty face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lin Xuan. Then, she said, "Brother Lin Xuan, this is Senior Brother Lu Xun, the eighth direct disciple under the master, who entered the sect three years ago, is in the Spirit Solidification Realm, and has a ninth-grade talent."

Lu Xun regained his composure, his eyes becoming arrogant as he looked at Lin Xuan indifferently.

"So trash, only Spirit Solidification Realm after three years? And you think you can plot against my wife?"

"Let's go, let's stay away from him, what a piece of garbage."

Lin Xuan pulled Yu Bing away, completely ignoring Lu Xun's face, which had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Brother Lin Xuan..."

Yu Bing glared at Lin Xuan playfully, her pretty face flushed with embarrassment.

However, she didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Xun and followed Lin Xuan.

"Brother Lin Xuan, let's go to the Duties Pavilion..."

"Uh, no need, Little Yu'er. You don't know how strong I am now. Killing a Body Tempering late stage is just a piece of cake."

"You don't know, this Niu Fang has been targeting me ever since I started receiving pills. He's long been asking for death. If he wants to die, then I, as his brother, will grant his wish."

Lin Xuan interrupted Yu Bing.

"But Brother Lin Xuan, he's at the Body Tempering late stage, and he's cultivated two martial skills, one Yellow Grade low-rank minor accomplishment, and one Yellow Grade mid-rank proficient..."

Yu Bing was still worried.

But Lin Xuan interrupted her again, "Relax, his meager achievements are nothing to me. He's been in the sect for several years and is still at this level. He's simply trash!"

"Little Yu'er, don't worry about it. Just watch me kill him. After that, we'll also be a handyman elder, an official..."

Yu Bing was not reassured and frowned deeply. "Brother Lin Xuan, why... are you so confident?"

"That's because I'm already at the Body Tempering mid-stage, and I've mastered two martial skills. Tell me, am I strong or not?"

Lin Xuan said boastfully.

He wasn't afraid to reveal himself. The Soul Suppressing Pagoda was his trump card, and no one could possibly detect it.

So what if he had a Useless Body? Isn't it normal for trash to defy expectations?

The Divine Firmament Holy Land protected him very well, and this Holy Land had a very good reputation and favored geniuses even more.

Being timid, hiding, and concealing himself would only greatly reduce the resources he could obtain.

On the contrary, the more monstrous you revealed yourself to be, the more vigorously the Holy Land would cultivate you.

After all, a strong person could obtain too many benefits for the Holy Land.

Strangling geniuses and blocking their rise would only lead a sect into a desperate situation and lead to its decline.

A large sect like the Divine Firmament Holy Land would never restrict the development of geniuses, and would even strongly support and absolutely protect them.

"What? How is that possible?" Yu Bing covered her delicate red lips in shock.

"Did you think you were an unparalleled genius?"

Lu Xun's voice rang out again, laced with a hint of anger.

"Do I need your input when I'm talking to my wife? You're like a persistent ghost."

Lin Xuan glanced at him.

"You..." Lu Xun was so angry he was trembling, but since this was the Holy Land, he really wanted to cut this thing down with his sword.

"With me, anything is possible. A useless body for ten thousand years, ha... the world misunderstands me."

Lin Xuan smiled confidently, raising his hand to gently stroke Yu Bing's nose.

This intimate gesture almost made Lu Xun explode again, but fortunately, he held back.

He couldn't win with words, and he couldn't win in a fight, he was also very tired.

"Really? Brother Lin Xuan?"

Yu Bing didn't know what to say at this moment; her intuition told her that Lin Xuan would never lie to her.

But even though she hadn't been cultivating for long, she still found it hard to believe.

Even she was only at the peak of the Body Tempering mid-stage, one step away from the Body Tempering late-stage.

She hadn't even started learning martial skills yet, having spent all her time cultivating these past few days.

"Of course it's true, when have I ever lied to my wife?"

Lin Xuan smiled gently.

Yu Bing's pretty face flushed even more, but she nodded firmly: "Yes, I believe you, Brother Lin Xuan."

Then, she took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and her eyes turned a shade colder.

"Don't worry, Brother Lin Xuan. With me here today, even if you lose, that Deacon Niu won't be able to do anything to you. Otherwise, I will kill him."

At this moment, Yu Bing's gaze was incredibly firm, and these were the most severe words she had ever spoken in her life.

Lin Xuan's heart felt warm; with a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?

"Alright, killing him would only dirty your hands. You still haven't told me if your body's problem has been resolved yet?"

Lin Xuan reached out and touched Yu Bing's small head.

"Not yet!"

Yu Bing shook her head, and Lin Xuan's heart tightened immediately, his confidence in Liu Ruyan greatly diminished.

"But Brother Lin Xuan, don't worry. Master will take me to the Land of Extreme Heat tomorrow to use the Earth Fire Power to suppress the cold current in my body."

"Master said that it's the supreme power brought about by my special constitution. Suppressing it within my body will allow me to slowly absorb and refine it, which will speed up my cultivation."

"And the Three Sect Trials are in a month. The Divine Firmament Holy Land has been at the bottom for many years, and now they're placing all their hopes on me."

"This trip to the Land of Extreme Heat will also be a good opportunity for me to hone my martial skills and increase my combat experience. I probably won't be back until just before the trials."

Hearing that there was a solution, Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, but he became curious about the Three Sect Trials.

"Where is Lin Xuan?"

Just then, Niu Fang's voice suddenly came, and he could only suppress the doubts in his heart
