Lin Xuan...
She had only just met him; of course, she couldn't possibly forget him so quickly.
The other party's cultivation level is only at the Perfect Emperor Realm, so why would they accept this kind of mission?
Is he trying to coast through the missions...?
A few thoughts drifted through Duan Nianwei's mind.
She quickly put it out of her mind and stopped thinking about it.
The reason I associate this with simply completing tasks is because there are quite a few people like this in the academy, and these are also the ones who die the fastest.
Every task assigned by the academy is neither easy nor safe.
Completing missions is definitely not an easy task.
but...
Before this, Duan Nianwei had a fairly good impression of Lin Xuan, and she also recognized his talent in Sword Dao.
She glanced at the others and pursed her lips slightly.
"If we ever encounter any remnants of that evil cult, don't stray too far from me."
A cool, clear voice rang in Lin Xuan's ear, the tone soft and gentle.
He glanced at Duan Nianwei subconsciously, only to see her staring straight ahead, as if she hadn't said those words.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but smile and sent a telepathic message back.
"Good."
As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.
Even if he has the ability to protect himself, he wouldn't be so arrogant as to betray other people's good intentions.
Moreover, although this Sword Fairy appears Leng Qing, one can easily tell from a brief interaction that she possesses a strong sense of justice.
Whether it was the guidance she gave us upon our first meeting or the offer of protection she has made now, it is enough to prove that she has benevolence and righteousness in her heart, and more importantly, she has her own way of the Sword Dao, forging ahead on the path of the sword.
This Sword Fairy has a good character...
He would be perfect to be my disciple...
at the same time.
At the headquarters of the Cloud Dynasty Alliance.
"You mean, that kid actually left the academy?"
Jin Yunchao suddenly lifted his eyelids, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold smile appeared on his lips.
"He's got guts; he actually dared to leave."
He can't beat that kid.
But... why is Jin Yunchao so arrogant in the academy?
It's because he has a good older brother.
He is the leader of the Cloud Dynasty Alliance.
The Cloud Dynasty Alliance is subordinate to the Golden Wing Alliance.
The leader of the Golden Wing Alliance is none other than his own elder brother Jin Yunyi.
"That's right, Alliance Leader, that kid accepted a mission in the Mission Hall and has already left our Supreme Institute."
The members of the Cloud Dynasty Alliance quickly replied.
Since that conflict between Jin Yunchao and Lin Xuan, Jin Yunchao, being weaker than Lin Xuan, had to temporarily hold back, but only within the academy.
He could never stand being taken advantage of or wronged, and he held a deep grudge against Lin Xuan.
Therefore, Jin Yunchao sent his men to keep an eye on Lin Xuan's movements early in the morning.
"That brat dared to talk back to me like that the other day, humph... I'll teach him a lesson he won't forget!"
Jin Yunchao pushed aside what was beside him and stood up with a cold smile.
"I've finally waited for him to leave the academy!"
"I never expected he would actually dare to leave the Supreme Institute! Humph! Heaven is truly helping me!"
"Take a few alliance members with you and come with me. This time, I'll make sure he doesn't leave alive, and teach him the price of provoking me!"
A sinister glint flashed in Jin Yunchao's eyes.
He had humiliated himself in his confrontation with Lin Xuan that day, and the matter had been weighing heavily on his mind ever since.
now.
He finally got his chance to retaliate.
"Hopefully, that kid will still be so stubborn then!"
"Let's go!"
Lin Xuan was unaware that someone was heading his way, and of course, even if he did know, he wouldn't care.
The mere Cloud Dynasty Alliance.
He wasn't afraid when he first entered the academy and didn't understand the situation, but now that he's been there for a while and has a general understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of these forces, he's even less afraid.
He, Duan Nianwei, and the others had already arrived at the Great Desert Dynasty.
The Great Desert Dynasty is located in the southern part of the Primordial Domain. It has existed for a long time and is extremely ancient. It has a Great Emperor who is in charge of suppressing the dynasty's fortune.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Emperor-level instructors are everywhere in the Primordial Holy Heaven; that's only because they're in the Primordial Holy Institute.
The Primordial Holy Institute is a gathering place for geniuses in the Primordial Domain, where prodigies abound and powerful figures are as numerous as clouds.
It is also the place where the essence of the Primordial Domain converges.
If we look at the entire vast Eastern Continent, those at the Thearch Realm can definitely be considered among the top powerhouses.
Lin Xuan and his group's destination this time was Ten Thousand Paths City in the Great Desert Dynasty.
This is an ordinary city of the Great Desert Dynasty.
According to the source of the mission information, it is said that the young master of that remnant of the demonic cult has appeared in this city and left traces.
This is why he was found by the students of Holy Heaven.
Unfortunately, all three students at the Venerable Realm ultimately perished at his hands.
After the group entered Ten Thousand Paths City, the gray-robed student who was traveling with Lin Xuan looked around, his eyes shifting slightly, and suddenly turned his head to make a suggestion.
" Ten Thousand Paths City is so vast that finding someone's whereabouts is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Why don't we split up and inquire around? If we find any news, we can immediately send a message to the others, okay?"
The man in black robes next to him clenched his fist with one hand and clapped his hands with the other, as if he had suddenly realized something and was overjoyed.
"You're right, I agree!"
That makes sense...
However, if they disperse, their fighting strength will also be dispersed...
The woman in yellow frowned slightly but remained silent.
Duan Nianwei glanced at him indifferently, her gaze sweeping over the people in the city, without responding to his words.
Seeing that the two women remained silent, the gray-robed man immediately turned his gaze to Lin Xuan and spoke with a forced smile.
"Junior brother, what do you think?"
Lin Xuan glanced at him indifferently, seeing through his little schemes in an instant. He couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to such petty thoughts.
Their ulterior motives were crystal clear.
Both of them are Venerable. If they were to unfortunately encounter that young master of the Demonic Sect, even if they couldn't defeat him, they could still escape.
However, if he acts alone, Lin Xuan, a mere Emperor Realm, will be left isolated.
In the eyes of others, his strength was such that going up against that young master of the demonic sect would be nothing short of suicide.
hehe...
Sending someone to their death?
If they stay together, it remains to be seen whether the person being protected will include themselves.
But if they split up and encounter the remnants of the Devil Race race, who might die? Ha...
However, since the other party was actively seeking death, Lin Xuan had no reason to refuse.
"I don't care."
Upon hearing Lin Xuan agree to their suggestion, the woman in yellow beside him became somewhat anxious.
Her brows were furrowed tightly as she looked at Lin Xuan with disapproval.
This guy...
What was he really thinking?
Didn't he realize that this would put him in a dangerous situation?
Tsk...
The gray-robed student and the black-robed student exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of anticipation in each other's eyes.
"Since that's the case, then it's settled."
"We'll split up and search for any remaining traces of the Devil Race."
They almost eagerly followed up on Lin Xuan's words, as if afraid that someone might change their mind.
Seeing that they were about to separate, the woman in yellow looked at Lin Xuan, who was only at the peak of the Perfect Emperor Realm and all alone, and rubbed her temples in frustration.
She hesitated for a moment, but eventually spoke up.
"Would you... like to come with me?"
"No need, I can protect myself." Lin Xuan shook his head and refused.
He never responds coldly to those who show him kindness, and what he says is the truth.
Sword Fairy Duan Nianwei hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.
But she swallowed her words and simply tossed a Jade Slip at Lin Xuan.
"This is my own communication Jade Slip. It can penetrate barriers that ordinary communication Jade Slip cannot. If you encounter any danger, send me a message, and I will come immediately."
She gripped the sword in one hand, her face slightly cold, and her tone devoid of warmth.
Those who haven't met her would certainly think she's extremely aloof, cold, and arrogant.
But in reality, after only a few brief encounters, Lin Xuan had already discovered that this Sword Fairy was a person with a cold exterior but a warm heart.
He didn't refuse; after accepting the communication Jade Slip, he nodded to Duan Nianwei.
Thank you.
Even if he didn't need it, there's no denying that Duan Nianwei meant well.
Thinking this, Lin Xuan smiled slightly.
This Sword Fairy is really good to me.
Holding the communication Jade Slip in his hand, he chose a direction and left the place, dispersing as he had just said to search for traces of the remnants of the demonic cult.
only...
He hadn't walked far, and not much time had passed, when Lin Xuan realized that he seemed to be being watched.
interesting.
