But all cultivators present were secretly envious of Lin Xun.

In the Upper Nine Realms, Holy Maiden Lin Xue was a goddess-like existence, not just because of her breathtakingly beautiful appearance that made people feel inferior but also because her foundation and strength earned her a place in the top ten of the Genius Gold Rankings. Many heroes in the world had to bow their heads to her.

Moreover, she had a cold and detached personality that made it difficult for people to get close to her.

But she actually took the initiative to talk to Lin Xun. This rarely happened. How could the others not be jealous of him?

Lin Xun was obviously taken aback by her request. He turned around and asked, “Miss, can you give me a reason to agree?”

Many people rolled their eyes. Demon God Lin, you are a well known figure in the world, but you are so insensitive and unromantic!

Do you need a reason to agree to a request from such a stunning woman with extraordinary talent and elegance?

But many other people were secretly impressed. He is so strong-willed and unyielding! Even a beauty can’t shake him at all!

Holy Maiden Lin Xue was also taken aback by his question, and then she answered in a clear voice, “Fellow Cultivator Lin’s name has been known to me for a long time, and I have been looking forward to meeting you. Is this a good enough reason?”

Lin Xun chuckled, “Then please come.”

He could feel that Lin Xue had no hostile or bad intentions. If he refused, he would be too cold-hearted and unreasonable.

Seeing this, a thought struck the other cultivators and they talked over one another, “Fellow Daoist Lin, we also admire you very much, can you…”

“Don’t even think about it!” Toady interrupted and cruelly refused their requests.

Everyone was speechless. This is discrimination!

But there was nothing they could do about it. Who would have the guts to break in forcefully?

……

Stupa Tower spanned eighteen floors

“I didn’t think you would still be running around and taking care of my affairs after all these years. Thank you for your hard work. Come on, let me toast to you.”

Lin Xun was almost moved to tears when he learned that Toady, during the four years he was trapped at the bottom of Underworld River, had never given up searching for the whereabouts of Ancient Buddha Son to avenge him.

He raised his cup and toasted Toady!

“We are brothers; you are too polite.” Toady returned the toast and downed the drink.

When he saw Lin Xun, was he not also overjoyed?

“It takes a fight for people to get to know each other well. If I offended you just now, I hope you will forgive me.” Lin Xun raised his cup at Chi Lingxiao.

Before this, Chi Lingxiao was visibly uncomfortable and awkward like he was sitting on a bed of thorns. The arrogance and pride in his heart prevented him from facing Lin Xun properly.

At the same time, he could not hold his head high in front of Lin Xun after the tragic defeat.

But when Lin Xun took the initiative to apologize and toast to him, Chi Lingxiao stared at him blankly for a minute.

Only after a long while did he take a deep breath and raise his cup as a toast. “Brother Lin is straightforward and forgiving. It is I who should be apologizing.”

Lin Xun smiled.

The two chugged the alcohol.

“Hahaha, Big Brother, you might not know, but Chi Lingxiao was a famous demon king who always created chaos back then. I’ve known him for so long, but I have never seen him act so coy.” Toady burst out laughing.

“Toad, will you die if you don’t speak for a second?!” Chi Lingxiao snapped.

“I won’t die, but it will be very painful,” Toady answered seriously before he was in stitches again.

Today was a very good day for him.

Not only did he reunite with Lin Xun, but he also helped a close friend avert a crisis, and now he could sit and joke around with his close friends. The feeling...

…was bliss!

“You are all some of the most outstanding talents in the world. It is a great honor to meet you all. I also would like to raise this cup as a toast,” Holy Maiden Lin Xue said aloud, her voice as clear and soothing as a babbling brook, and more beautiful than the celestial sounds of nature.

Her jet black hair cascaded down her like a waterfall, her eyebrows were dark as ink, and her soft lips were a captivating red shade. Her clear and bright eyes crinkled in a faint smile, which dispelled the coldness all over her like a spring breeze.

Lightly holding the cup in her slender and fair hands, her every movement and gesture were alluring and graceful.

She was indeed worthy of being hailed as a goddess by countless heroes in the Upper Nine Realms.

Everyone raised their cups and drank to their heart’s content.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became much warmer and harmonious than before.

“Over the past few years, I have traveled all over the world and searched many areas in the Upper Nine Realms. I almost lost my life several times. Fortunately, I am finally reunited with my big brother.”

After three rounds of drinks, Toady was slightly tipsy and couldn’t help but cry emotionally.

Only then did Lin Xun learn that, some time after he appeared in Kongzhe Mountain, Toady had come to the danger-ridden Stupa Brahma Land and became trapped in one of the dangerous places.

He had only escaped not long ago, so had been unaware that Lin Xun was still alive.

“Unfortunately, there is still no news whatsoever from that barbarian A’lu. I am really worried about that boorish guy...” Toady could not continue.

Lin Xun’s heart also sank.

They had parted ways with A’lu in the Burning Immortal World because he wanted to search for the Ancient Land of All. Several years had passed since then, but they still hadn’t heard anything from him to this day. How could Lin Xun and Toady not be worried?

“Brother Lin, given your current reputation in the Upper Nine Realms, if Brother A’lu knows that you are here, he will definitely come as soon as possible,” Chi Lingxiao said aloud, trying to ease the atmosphere.

Toady muttered, “That guy is looking for the Ancient Land of All. I have been all over the Upper Nine Realms all these years, but I have never heard of a place called the Ancient Land of All.”

“Ancient Land of All?” Holy Maiden Lin Xue said suddenly, “I have heard of it before.”

Lin Xun and Toady quickly turned to look at her.

“In the Thunder Jolt Realm lies a heaven-defying place that is comparable to the True Dragon’s Lair, and it is called the Ancient Land of All.

“I only left the Thunder Jolt Realm not too long ago and I heard some reliable information. It is speculated that the seal of the Ancient Land of All has yet to completely fade and we will need to wait at least two years before we could enter and explore this mysterious place.” Holy Maiden Lin Xue did not conceal anything and told them everything she knew.

Toady frowned. “So, does this mean that the barbarian A’lu has not had the chance to enter it yet?”

Holy Maiden Lin Xue explained, “Not necessarily. The seal has loosened, but it has not completely faded. If one got a hold of some secrets about the Ancient Land of All, then it may not be impossible to enter it.”

After the conversation, Lin Xun and Toady both decided to wait a while and if they still heard no news about A’lu then they would personally make a trip to the Thunder Jolt Realm.

“There is one more thing that I hope to confirm with Brother Lin.” Holy Maiden Lin Xue’s clear eyes glowed with a hint of curiosity. “A few days ago, there were rumors everywhere that Brother Lin suppressed Yun Qingbai, who is first on the Genius Gold Rankings. I wonder if the rumors are true.”

Even a peerless figure such as Holy Maiden Lin Xue had been paying close attention to this matter, unable to figure out the accuracy of the rumors.

Chi Lingxiao, who was drinking with Toady, stopped and pricked up his ears.

“It is indeed true, but it is not as exaggerated as the rumors said. At that time...”

Lin Xun did not hide anything and gave them a condensed version of the event.

Even so, Holy Maiden Lin Xue and Chi Lingxiao spaced out in astonishment.

The news is true!

“Hey, if I had known about this earlier, how would I have dared to provoke Brother Lin?” Chi Lingxiao smiled wryly.

Everyone knew how terrifying Yun Qingbai was, but Lin Xun was able to chase him down!

Toady gave a thumbs-up. “Big brother, impressive!”

Lin Xun sighed helplessly, “No matter what, Yun Qingbai is indeed very powerful. I had an advantage over him at the time, but he still managed to escape...”

“Yun Qingbai is at the fifth longevity tribulation stage though. It’s already amazing that Brother Lin could force him to flee in panic.” Holy Maiden Lin Xue’s eyes glimmered. “What’s more, luck is also a kind of strength.”

Lin Xun laughed, “Speaking of luck, Yun Qingbai’s luck isn’t bad. At least he was able to escape even though I had exhausted all my means.”

Then, the topic shifted to Ancient Buddha Son. Everyone was aghast to learn that he had been brutally murdered by Yun Qingbai and had his innate power and talent seized.

Ancient Buddha Son, an ancient-era eccentric genius from the Earth Treasury Temple, was an incredibly mysterious and terrifying expert, but he was killed at the hands of Yun Qingbai. This news, once spread, would no doubt set off storms across the Upper Nine Realms.

And if the news spread beyond the Supreme Realm to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, it likely would be the beginning of conflict between the two ancient sects—the Omega Sword Sect and Earth Treasury Temple.

Chi Lingxiao could not help but ask, “Brother Lin, is there a feud between you and Yun Qingbai.”

“Yes, blood feud,” Lin Xun responded very calmly.

The expressions of Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue tensed. No one ever knew that there was a blood feud between Demon God Lin and Yun Qingbai!

“But...but everyone says that you and Yun Qingbai possess the same kind of grand dao power. How did...this feud start?” asked Chi Lingxiao.

“When I was born, my innate talent power was stolen by someone, and this someone was Yun Qingbai.” Lin Xun’s expression remained surprisingly calm.

This was the first time he had spoken out about the deepest secret buried in his heart!

In the past, he was not strong enough and his situation was worrying and bleak, so he had no choice but to suffer in silence and bury the hatred in his heart.

But now, times had changed.

He was no longer afraid of Yun Qingbai.

He wanted to make this secret known to the world through the mouths of Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue!

What would the world think when they learn that the unrivaled swordsman whom they either fear or admire was actually a despicable and shameless thief?
