Clear Sky Sect Disciple! (Thanks to 'Please Call Me Handsome' for the 9 recommendation votes~)

"Unspeakable Thing?"

Although Lin Ziyi had read some Cthulhu works and was especially familiar with all sorts of tentacles in them...

Familiarity was one thing, but he had never seen such things in reality. He had no idea what form they actually took.

Tushan Lingling noticed Lin Ziyi's confusion and carefully added,

"Unspeakable, indescribable, incomprehensible... If you ever get the chance, Master, just search it with a search engine and you'll understand..."

Looking at Tushan Lingling's lovely face, Lin Ziyi thought, If I had the chance to use a search engine, would I still search for that thing?

He did not dwell on the matter. Instead, he reached out and pinched Tushan Lingling's chin, revealing a mischievous smile.

"Master is too ordinary a form of address. Can you call me something else?"

Tushan Lingling blinked her shy lashes. "S-Something else? Then... Husband?"

"Oho, not bad!" Lin Ziyi's eyes lit up, but he still shook his head.

"That's still a little too ordinary... How about adding the word 'Brother' after Husband?"

"Husband... Brother?"

Tushan Lingling tried calling him that and found that the address was surprisingly easy to say.

The shyness in her eyes deepened, and her little mouth grew sweeter. "Understood. I'll call you Husband Brother from now on~"

"Mm, not bad at all!"

Lin Ziyi praised her, then suddenly thought of something and asked the system inwardly,

"System, if I leave the auction house now, will I return to where I was before?"

The system's considerate voice quickly sounded.

The host may choose the nearest city for teleportation!

"That is pretty convenient..." Although Lin Ziyi said so, he still instructed the system, "But I'm curious why I appeared on that plain... Let's go back and take a look first."

With a level ninety-five Tushan Lingling protecting him now, he no longer needed to fear those aggressive light cavalrymen.

Ding—The host is about to leave the Misty Auction House... Please prepare yourself.

As the system's voice sounded, Lin Ziyi suddenly felt his hand tightly gripped by a soft, delicate hand.

The next moment, a warm radiance instantly enveloped his entire body!

Lin Ziyi only felt the scenery around him shift, but he no longer experienced the weightless dizziness from when he had entered the Misty Auction House.

In the blink of an eye, the black mist around him dispersed, and Lin Ziyi returned to the plain where sand and grass drifted in the wind!

The moment he and Tushan Lingling appeared, the clashing sounds of armor and weapons rang out around them.

Just as Lin Ziyi expected, soldiers had indeed been stationed where he had previously vanished!

Lin Ziyi looked at the dozen or so soldiers standing ready around him and noticed the hostile gazes beneath their visors!

Before Lin Ziyi could speak, one of the Soldier Captains shouted,

"Who exactly are you? Why have you appeared within our borders? Are you spies sent by Spirit Hall?"

Lin Ziyi had no intention of answering his question, because he could not explain why he had appeared here either.

He had no idea where this place even was...

Lin Ziyi put on an innocent, confused expression. "Can you tell me first which empire this is and where exactly we are?"

Although Lin Ziyi asked sincerely, the Soldier Captain felt that the other party was making a fool of him!

Didn't know where this place was? What kind of joke was that!

As a Soul Master who came and went without a trace, how could he not know this was a military stronghold of the Balak Kingdom? Ridiculous!

The Soldier Captain felt that the young man before him was provoking him, or else treating him like an idiot!

At that thought, the Soldier Captain could not help but sneer.

"Since you refuse to reveal your identities, I'll deal with you as spies!"

As he spoke, the Soldier Captain raised his right hand and swung it forward fiercely!

The soldiers, who had long been itching for a fight, immediately thrust their gleaming silver spears toward Lin Ziyi!

Yet strangely, not a single one of them attacked the beautiful Fox Demon at his side...

Lin Ziyi sneered. "Lingling."

Hearing the young man's eager call, Tushan Lingling's fluffy white tail could not help swaying twice.

However, when facing the attacks around her, her gaze instantly turned cold.

Her immense Soul Power swept out like a white tornado, directly sending the dozen or so soldiers spinning through the air!

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the beast-eared woman, the Soldier Captain's face was already crawling with insects named "terror"!

Their general knew that this young man might be a Soul Master, so he had specifically sent him, a Soul King, to keep the situation under control.

He had thought that even if a Soul King in his fifties could not defeat the other party, he should at least be able to exchange a few moves.

Yet at this moment, the young man had not displayed any strength.

But the terrifying aura emitted by the woman beside him made every hair on his body tremble uncontrollably!

Forget exchanging a few moves—even keeping himself from wetting his pants was already difficult enough!

Who exactly was this woman? What faction did she come from?

Why had such a powerful expert entered their Balak Kingdom?

Seeing the Soldier Captain's deathly pale face, Lin Ziyi smiled in satisfaction.

Borrowing a fox's might to intimidate a dog really did feel great! Well, the dog here meant a useless dog...

"Can you tell me where this place is now?" Lin Ziyi looked at him with a smile.

Hearing the young man ask the same question again, the Soldier Captain finally believed that he truly did not know.

He fell silent for a moment before answering in a trembling voice,

"Th-This is the Lima Plain of the Balak Kingdom... That magnificent fortress city in the distance is the border stronghold, Jialing Pass!"

"Lima Plain? Jialing Pass?"

Hearing those familiar place names, Lin Ziyi, who had recently finished watching the first Soul Land anime, immediately understood where he was.

This was the main battlefield of the future war between the three gods, as well as a public graveyard that would bury the souls of countless soldiers!

Perhaps some indescribable force had guided him here from the shadows...

It might have been one of the reasons he had transmigrated here, but it was probably not the whole reason!

Lin Ziyi did not dwell on it further.

Now that he knew where he was, he could make up a reasonable excuse to brush them off.

Looking at the Soldier Captain, whose body was trembling nonstop, he smiled and sighed.

"What a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple—one family failing to recognize another.

"Look at you. If you'd told me earlier that this was Heaven Dou Empire territory, wouldn't this misunderstanding have been avoided?

"Actually, I'm a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect! Just like you, I'm from the Heaven Dou Empire.

"It's just that I've loved studying teleportation formations since I was young, and I accidentally teleported here from my clan.

"I'm not a spy from Spirit Hall. I'm utterly irreconcilable with Spirit Hall..."

Of course, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena were exceptions!

What Lin Ziyi had not expected was that when the Soldier Captain heard the words Clear Sky Sect, the surprise on his face intensified!

At this time, the Clear Sky Sect was still in seclusion.

Very few Clear Sky Sect disciples walked among the common people, much less ones with such terrifying strength!

A trace of suspicion appeared in the Soldier Captain's eyes.

"Y-You really are a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect? Then, may I see your Clear Sky Hammer?"
