After sending Jiang Xue out of the room, Lin Langtian ultimately did not make a move on her.

It wasn't that Jiang Xue's beauty wasn't alluring enough, but rather that at Lin Langtian's current cultivation level, a woman was no longer judged solely by her beauty.

Although Jiang Xue was beautiful, even not inferior to Lin Ke'er of the Lin Clan, her talent was ultimately too poor. She was already quite ordinary in the Great Yan Dynasty, and even more unremarkable if placed on the entire Tianxuan Continent.

Furthermore, Lin Langtian was not the type to take advantage and then shirk responsibility. Even if they had become intimate, given Jiang Xue's aptitude, the gap between them would only widen in the future, making it highly unlikely they would end up together.

This was not what Lin Langtian hoped for.

For the current Lin Langtian, the ideal woman in his heart was likely among the top prodigies of the Tianxuan Continent.

Although he had rejected Jiang Xue, after pondering for a moment, Lin Langtian finally agreed to her request with a wry smile.

Firstly, the beauty's affection ran deep. Although Lin Langtian adhered to the principle of being cautious and low-key, he was not heartless. He couldn't just stand by and watch the Eagle Martial Arts School be destroyed.

Secondly, there was a martial art within the Blood Vulture Martial Arts School that greatly interested him.

As for the third point, Lin Langtian vaguely remembered that Yin Yin was a reincarnator of the Lord of Life and Death!

Although Lin Langtian didn't want to curry favor with the Lord of Life and Death, as by the time they awakened, it would be close to the grand finale, it wouldn't hurt to forge a good connection in advance.

"Fine, let's just consider it a warm-up..."

Three days later, when Lin Langtian opened his eyes, warm sunlight was already streaming in through the window, scattering into light spots that illuminated the room.

Stretching, Lin Langtian rolled out of bed. As his body moved, the sound of thunderous Spiritual Power surged within him.

This was a sign of his Spiritual Power increasing. These past few days, as he continuously absorbed the sealed Spiritual Power within the Golden Spirit Wheel realm, he was getting closer and closer to becoming a Four-Seal Talisman Master.

Lin Langtian casually performed a set of boxing movements in the room to warm up his body. When a light sheen of sweat appeared on his forehead, he stopped. His gaze then shifted to the door, which was suddenly pushed open gently.

Then, Jiang Xue walked in slowly, holding a basin of water. Her bright, beautiful eyes fixed on Lin Langtian, and a faint blush still lingered on her clear, pretty face.

"You're up?" Jiang Xue's voice was soft. She placed the basin on the table, wet a towel, wrung it out with her delicate hands, and then handed it to Lin Langtian.

She looked like a very obedient young wife.

"Heh heh, thanks." Lin Langtian smiled and took the warm towel, which still carried a faint scent of her body.

These past few days, Jiang Xue had been serving him like a maid. Although Lin Langtian had tried to refuse, she seemed to feel guilty and insisted on doing so, so Lin Langtian could only let her.

Jiang Xue extended her slender, jade-like hands and obediently took back the hot towel after he had wiped his face. The smile on her face was exceptionally gentle.

This was also the first time she had ever served a man like this. No one would have guessed that her heart was pounding violently at this moment.

"Senior Sister!"

Just as the room was filled with a tender atmosphere, an urgent shout suddenly came from outside. Jiang Xue hurriedly turned and rushed out of the room. Afterward, Lin Langtian heard some voices.

"Senior Sister, this is bad! The Blood Vulture Martial Arts School has suddenly brought people and surrounded our school!"

In the room, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow and shook his head. Then, he got up and walked out of the room, smiling at Jiang Xue, whose face was pale, by the door. "Let's go, let's go take a look."

With that, he led the way out of the martial arts school.

Seeing him like this, a touch of color returned to Jiang Xue's cheeks. Suppressing the panic in her heart, she took a deep breath and quickly followed.

Outside the Eagle Martial Arts School, it was now completely surrounded. Most of the people there had the same emblem on their chests – the emblem of the Blood Vulture Martial Arts School.

Large numbers of people also emerged from various parts of the Eagle Martial Arts School, their gazes filled with intense hatred as they looked at the outsiders.

At the main entrance of the martial arts school, Jiang Lei stared with a somber expression at the dense crowd from the Blood Vulture Martial Arts School. After a moment, he said in a deep voice, "Master Luo Jiu, are you so impatient to drive my Eagle Martial Arts School out of Great Eagle City?"

"Stop the nonsense. Three days have passed. Jiang Lei, what have you decided?" Luo Jiu, the leader of the Blood Vulture Martial Arts School, snorted coldly.

"The Eagle Martial Arts School is my life's work, and I cannot let it go!" Jiang Lei clenched his heavy sword with both hands, his voice firm.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame this Master for being ruthless. Today, I will deal with you directly!"

As his voice fell, Luo Jiu swung his hammer, a ferocious glint in his eyes.

He no longer intended to hold back like last time. His figure flashed, and he charged down like a vulture. His heavy hammer, carrying extremely fierce power and Primal Energy fluctuations, slammed down fiercely towards Jiang Lei.

"Clang! Clang!"

The heavy sword and heavy hammer collided, erupting in sparks. Waves of fierce Primal Energy fluctuations erupted like ripples, actually cracking the ground.

"Haha, Jiang Lei, you're still no match for me. The gap between Minor Accomplishment of Shaping Realm and Major Accomplishment is not as simple as you think!"

The two figures crossed paths, Primal Energy surging. The heavy hammer almost completely suppressed the heavy sword. Every clash caused the heavy sword to tremble violently, and blood began to flow from the palm gripping the sword.

"Clang!"

With another fierce collision, a loud bang echoed as the heavy sword was directly blasted away.

Seeing this, a ferocious glint flashed in Luo Jiu's eyes. His heavy hammer, enveloped by his powerful Primal Energy, slammed down towards Jiang Lei's chest. Judging by the momentum, if it hit, his entire chest would be blown apart.

"Die!"

Luo Jiu's face contorted with ferocity as he swung his hammer. However, just as his hammer was about to hit Jiang Lei's body, a sharp gust of wind suddenly broke through the air, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound.

"Who?!"

The sudden gust of wind made Luo Jiu's expression turn cold. He swung his hammer back fiercely, colliding heavily with the sharp energy that sliced through the air.

"Clang!"

Sparks flew, but this time, the collapse Luo Jiu expected didn't happen. Hidden within the gust of wind was an incredibly powerful force. As Primal Energy surged, it forcefully repelled his heavy hammer strike.

The immense force from the heavy hammer made Luo Jiu's heart tighten. He spun his heavy hammer, protecting himself as he retreated rapidly.

Raising his gaze, he saw a young, tall figure had appeared before Jiang Lei at some unknown time.

This figure was handsome and elegant, with an extraordinary aura.

What surprised Luo Jiu even more was that he couldn't feel the slightest fluctuation of Primal Energy from this person, as if they were a calm lake surface.

This situation meant either a powerhouse far beyond him or someone utterly insignificant.

Looking at the young face, Luo Jiu pondered for a moment before classifying Lin Langtian as the latter. He then spoke coldly.

"Kid, who are you? Why are you interfering in the affairs between my Blood Vulture Martial Arts School and the Eagle Martial Arts School!"
