Chapter 376: Mottled Plum Blossom Sword



Is Lin Xun crazy!?

Hua Qinglin has already taken a step back, but he still doesn’t plan to let him go. Does he want to fight to the death with the Hua Clan?

He’s too crazy!

“What is that guy thinking?”

Lin Xun’s bold, unexpected move also puzzled and surprised Shi Yu, Ning Meng and the others.

“Does that kid want to die?!”

Lin Tianlong and others were taken aback at first, but then they laughed coldly. They couldn’t wait until Lin Xun completely enraged the Hua Clan and died as a result.

“Little trash, I’ve already given you face!”

Hua Qinglin suddenly stopped, undisguised killing intent surfacing on his calm and graceful face.

Boom!

Almost at the same time, Third Old Zhu acted without any hesitation. He charged toward Hua Qinglin with murderous intent. He didn’t seem to care about anything and only followed Lin Xun’s orders. It was as though he wouldn’t even frown if Lin Xun wanted him to die.

Even Zhao Tailai, the owner of Sky Martial Arena, stood there blankly, not expecting such a thing to happen. He didn’t know how Lin Xun, a teenager, could be so ruthless and had no care about the consequences. It was completely unexpected.

“Enough. Time to stop!”

However, before Hua Qinglin and Third Old Zhu broke out in a fight, an arc of light descended from the sky.

It was a sword!

The sword was twisted and shaped like a plum blossom branch. The body was dark, jagged, and covered with mottled rust. The sword seemed to have descended from the sky. It pierced straight into the center of the arena between Hua Qinglin and Third Old Zhu.

Instantly, the two halted.

At the same time, the ancient voice rang again, echoing in all directions, making people wonder where it came from. However, fear inexplicably flooded everyone’s hearts when they heard the voice. Their spirits trembled and they dared not utter a word.

The atmosphere suddenly stilled!

As Hua Qinglin looked at the strange sword covered with rust and was shaped like a plum blossom branch, his face morphed into shock, bewilderment and bitterness.

Third Old Zhu kept silent and dared not act rashly.

It seemed as though the sword possessed a demonic force that instilled fear into Hua Qinglin and Third Old Zhu.

In the surroundings of the arena, the influential figures of the older generation fell silent, and their expressions dramatically changed. It was as though they had recognized the sword. The rest might not have recognized the sword, but they realized the seriousness of the situation and their expressions morphed indefinitely.

Lin Xun also didn’t know the origin of the sword, but he seemed to have guessed something as he furrowed his brows in deep thought.

He had disregarded everything and ordered Third Old Zhu to take action not because he wanted to fight to the death with Hua Qinglin. His true motive was to see if he could lure out the influential figure hiding in the dark.

It seemed like he had succeeded.

That strange mottled plum blossom branch sword must be a symbol of some kind of status!

Lin Xun had speculated this because of Zhao Tailai’s sudden appearance. He didn’t know the man, but he suddenly appeared at a critical moment and stopped Hua Qinglin’s retaliation against him.

Additionally, the fact that Zhao Tailai said ‘it’s not only my wishes’, proved that someone had secretly instructed him to do so!

Lin Xun suspected the person was an influential figure from the imperial family! Everything that had happened had vaguely proved it.

“Disperse!” Like a command, the ancient voice rang again.

Hua Qinglin drew a deep breath and bowed his head at the mottled plum blossom branch sword on the ground before turning around and leaving.

“Third Old Zhu, come back,” said Lin Xun.

He had achieved his goal so he could stop now.

Everyone’s expressions were crossed with shock and bewilderment like they had just woken up from a dream. They didn’t expect the duel between two youngsters to end in such a way.

Regardless, the duel had come to an end.

The end meant that the winner had been decided.

Hua Wuyou was no doubt the loser. Even if she wasn’t killed in the end, the battle was no doubt a huge blow to her.

Lin Xun would rise to fame in the Forbidden City after he had shown such strength in the battle. He was bound to become a talented genius that no one can ignore!

Similarly, the Hua Clan had tarnished their reputation. As one of the seven high clans, they had gone back on their word and broke the rules of a duel. Their despicable actions were like a permanent stain.

Hua Qiancheng and Hua Qinglin, two Heaven Ascension cultivators, had appeared in the arena one after another and attempted to kill Lin Xun, who was their junior. Their behavior and actions were too arrogant and tyrannical.

If the incident spread out, it would have a huge impact on their prestige.

However, that was all. After all, the Hua Clan was one of the unshakable seven high clans. The result of the duel and their shameless actions wouldn’t have a substantial impact on them.

……

“Kid, are you happy now?”

When Lin Xun exited the arena, he ran into Zhao Tailai, who looked very displeased and seemed to blame Lin Xun for creating trouble for him.

“No?”

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun said with a smile, “Unless you tell me why you came forward and stopped everything.”

“Don’t waste your breath!” Zhao Tailai said impatiently, “Go, go, go! Kid, you’ve already brought me so much trouble. You’re a pest that I can’t afford to anger, but do you think I can’t hide?”

Lin Xun smiled bitterly as he was shooed away.

Before he left, Zhao Tailai suddenly said aloud, “If you want to create trouble, go to Qinglu Academy. I would be impressed if you could turn it upside down.”

Lin Xun’s eyes lit up. “Elder, did someone tell you to pass on those words to me?”

Zhao Tailai ignored him, turned around, and walked away.

Lin Xun stood there, lost in thought.

Turn the world upside down?

Before he stepped into the Forbidden City, an influential figure from the imperial family had sent him a letter and told him that he could turn the world upside down!

Lin Xun connected everything that he had experienced, and he had a feeling that everything was related to the influential figure from the palace.

“This duel is indeed not that simple. No wonder it attracted the attention of so many clans and forces…” Lin Xun said ruminatively.

……

Precious Laughter House.

Ninth Heaven Pavilion.

They were at the same place and only Shi Yu, Ning Meng, Gong Ming, Ye Xiaoqi and Lin Xun were present, but the atmosphere was much more lively than that day.

How could men gather without any drinks?

It was similar to how women always exchanged makeup tips when they got together.

To celebrate Lin Xun’s victory, Shi Yu brought out his father’s precious Ice Flame Jade Dew. There were two full jars, and the value was difficult to estimate.

They drank to their heart’s content, and the atmosphere was joyous.

Lin Xun’s battle could be called the most sensational event that occurred in the Forbidden City this year. His friends were very proud of the fact that Lin Xun had become victorious in the battle.

After three rounds of drinks and five courses of food, Shi Yu said tipsily, “When I left Sky Martial Arena, I ran into Bai Lingxi and Zhao Yin. Do you know what Bai Lingxi said about the battle?”

Everyone couldn’t help but be curious. Bai Lingxi was considered the strongest and most talented maiden in Blood Kill Camp. Moreover, she had a very impressive background and had achieved third place in the national exam. They were very interested in her opinion.

“She said Lin Xun is the same as before.” Shi Yu chuckled.

“What does that mean?” Ning Meng furrowed his brows.

“Abnormal!” Shi Yu looked at him like he was looking at an idiot.

Everyone burst into laughter, but Lin Xun was a little stunned and couldn’t help but say, “In terms of abnormality, she should be better than me, right?”

Shi Yu smiled playfully. “You two should have a showdown one day. Perhaps, a relationship will be formed in the process. If you can win Bai Lingxi’s heart, your Lin Family will rise in no time!”

Ning Meng and others laughed teasingly.

Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged.

Then, he had a drinking contest with Shi Yu, and made his friend collapse on the table after five rounds.

Seeing this, Ning Meng, Gong Ming and Ye Xiaoqi were about to retreat, but Lin Xun stopped them and had a drinking contest with each of them.

In the end, the youngsters all lay there drunk on the ground, mumbling nonsense.

Regardless of their status and power, they were still very young and at the peak of their youth.

In the years to come, they might go their separate ways, make friends with different people and seek different cultivation paths, but the friendships they had formed in their teenage years would always stay with them.

……

On the same night.

Chi Cangmei walked along a bustling street, her brows slightly wrinkled as scenes from the Sky Martial Arena flashed in her mind.

An inexplicable irritation rose in her heart. Lin Xun is growing too fast! The most terrifying and troublesome thing is that there is an invisible, colossal force hiding behind him.

“Say, who is better between Lin Xun and Cangfeng?” Chi Cangmei suddenly asked.

The Cangfeng she mentioned was naturally Chi Cangfeng.

The old servant behind her said after a while, “Lin Xun is a little inferior. Young Master Cangfeng possesses the bloodline of the Violet Sea Golden Lotus, and within three years, he can set foot into the Heaven Ascension Stage. Very few of his peers can compare with him. Although Lin Xun defeated Hua Wuyou, he is still inferior in terms of his cultivation foundation, background, and talent.”

Chi Cangmei shook her head. “What you said is biased. It’s obvious that you are biased towards Cangfeng. Cangfeng will set foot into the Heaven Ascension Stage within three years, but Lin Xun will also improve in those years!”

She took a deep breath and said, “On the contrary, I have a hunch that if Lin Xun doesn’t die in three years, the so-called heavenly prides and demonic talents in the Forbidden City won’t be able to conceal his brilliance anymore!”

A thunderous uproar in the distance caught Chi Cangmei’s attention.

She scrunched her brows and noticed that the battle between Lin Xun and Hua Wuyou was being broadcast on a rune transmission light screen.
