Chapter 1821: Provocation at the Door



Chapter 1821: Provocation at the Door

Lin Xun thought for a moment and just nodded. He didn’t hide anything from her nor did he say anything.

Liu Qingyan knitted her beautiful brows together and sighed.

Lin Xun invited her to sit down and poured her a cup of tea before asking, “Can you tell me who is trying to harm you on this ship?”

Liu Qingyan was silent for a moment, then she answered, “Since you asked me directly, I shouldn’t keep anything from you. However, this matter involves the internal strife of Heavenly Sound Pavilion...”

Lin Xun interrupted with a smile, “Just think of it as a chat. Unless necessary, I will not do anything beyond my ability.”

Liu Qingyan nodded.

On Whirlwind Ship, Heavenly Sound Pavilion had two quasi-Emperors, seven supreme Saint-Kings and dozens of Saint-King elders.

In addition, there were true disciples, guards, and servants.

Regarding the matter of Liu Qingyan being targeted, one of the two quasi-Emperors had already expressed their stance and their dissatisfaction with Liu Qingyan.

This person was Hua Dian, a Grand Elder of Heavenly Sound Pavilion.

Among the seven supreme Saint-Kings, four were Hua Dian’s loyal followers and they were all on the same side.

Liu Qingyan’s master Zhuang Yunzhi and another supreme Saint-King called Xiao Yunkong were on Liu Qingyan’s side.

After learning this, Lin Xun quickly thought about it and asked, “In other words, the other party has a quasi-Emperor and four supreme Saint Kings, while on your side are two supreme Saint-Kings, your master and Xiao Yunkong?”

Liu Qingyan nodded.

Lin Xun continued to ask, “What about the other quasi-Emperor and the last supreme Saint-King? What are their positions?”

Liu Qingyan sighed, “I guess they just want to stay out of this and watch from the sidelines.”

The quasi-Emperor was called Liang Chuan and Bu Feiyu was the supreme Saint-King.

They were considered as neutral characters.

At this point, Lin Xun completely understood that the situation was extremely unfavorable to Liu Qingyan.

The fact alone that the other side had a quasi-Emperor already exerted enough pressure on Liu Qingyan and her master Zhuang Yunzhi!

After contemplating for a moment, Lin Xun’s dark eyes flashed and he asked, “Miss Qingyan, may I be so bold as to ask you, if things get worse and even your master can’t protect you anymore, what would you do?”

Liu Qingyan was taken aback by the question, and the expression on her beautiful face changed indefinitely. “No matter what, I won’t make things difficult for Master.”

She answered in a calm voice, but it made Lin Xun’s heart sink to the bottom of his chest. If conflict broke out, then Liu Qingyan would not hesitate to sacrifice herself to save her master!

Liu Qingyan’s countenance turned serious. “Senior, you can know about the matter, but you can’t get involved. They will do anything to help Kong Yu to force me to surrender.”

Lin Xun sighed emotionally to himself. Even in her predicament, she is still thinking for an outsider ‘Yu Xuan’ and is concerned about his safety.

He nodded. “I understand.”

Liu Qingyan stood up, said goodbye, and returned to her room.

Lin Xun sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard, deep in thought.

He was not afraid of quasi-Emperors because he was confident that he could kill them even without exposing his identity.

However, once the other party died, there was bound to be trouble.

He was thinking about how to avoid making the other party suspicious of him even in the worst case scenario.

“It’s really hard to keep a low profile...”

After a long moment, he smiled wryly.

“Fine. Miss Qingyan is an old friend of mine. How can I let her be bullied? If she is driven into a corner, then don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

A chilling light flashed in Lin Xun’s dark eyes.

On the surface, the matter seemed to be an internal struggle within the Heavenly Sound Pavilion, but Lin Xun knew that, although Kong Yu, a disciple of the Primordial Dao Court, was not around, he had sent a group of experts to infiltrate the Whirlwind Ship.

They were also threats!

“Primordial Dao Court…”

Lin Xun suddenly smiled.

Back when he was in the Kunlun Dominion, he had killed countless disciples of major forces including Kun Jiulin. How would he be afraid of Kong Yu?

“You better not mess with me.”

Lin Xun indeed had the intention to hide his identity, keep a low profile, and preferably not draw any attention.

However, there was still a limit to his tolerance!

For example, when he first arrived in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, was he not surrounded by enemies? Did he not fight his way out in the end?

Tolerating did not necessarily mean being cowardly!

If this was the case, what was the point of cultivating?

……

From this day on, in his spare time after practicing the World-Guarding Nine Cauldrons Scripture and tempering the five viscera spirits, he would craft some formation artifacts such as formation flags, plates, and talismans.

Whirlwind Ship was a giant boundary ship and its entire body, both inside and out, was covered densely with powerful dao rune arrays. It consumed almost half a million dao crystals every day in order to fly across the Ancient Nebula Road.

However, it was precisely because it was covered with countless restriction dao rune arrays that the ship was extremely solid and stable and could dispel many unpredictable dangers as it traveled through the starry sky.

Lin Xun reckoned that the array restriction power that enveloped the ship was strong enough to withstand attacks of the quasi-Emperor Stage.

Unfortunately, Whirlwind Ship was ultimately just a boundary ship and not a complete restriction array.

Otherwise, whoever controlled the restriction array power of this boundary ship also held the lives of everyone on the ship.

Lin Xun did not hope to control Whirlwind Ship, so he was content with just taking care of his own turf.

In the next few days, Lin Xun became rather busy with setting up arrays in this quiet and tranquil courtyard.

Liu Qingyan was surprised to see this because she did not expect Senior Yu Xuan to be a dao rune master.

Seven days later.

Lin Xun dusted his hands as a satisfied smile spread across his face.

In the courtyard, he set up a large dao rune restriction array for both defense and confinement called the Galaxy Restriction Array.

When in operation, it could communicate with the power of the stars, and even a supreme Saint-King, once trapped in it, would struggle to escape.

Lin Xun had used up one million dao crystals worth of divine materials and ingredients to construct the restriction array!

It was an eye-watering amount. The past Lin Xun would never be able to afford it.

However, he had made a fortune in the Great Yu Secret Realm from killing all the big shots.

In terms of dao crystals alone, it was around nine million!

He also owned heaps of divine materials, herbs, and rare treasures.

Lin Xun could be called wealthy now and would not have to worry about dao crystals.

“Miss Qingyan, please keep this jade talisman safe.”

Lin Xun found Liu Qingyan and handed her a specially made jade talisman. “If there’s an emergency, just crush this talisman and I will be notified right away.”

“Thank you Senior.” Liu Qingyan accepted it with gratitude.

She had never thought much of Yu Xuan and only regarded him as a senior. She never expected him to truly help or protect her.

But after this period of exchange, she found that Senior Yu Xuan, at least in terms of acting as a ‘bodyguard,’ was very diligent.

Of course, that was all.

She knew that if she was really in danger, the only person she could depend on was her master Zhuang Yunzhi. After all, their enemies were too strong.

They were so strong that she did not dare to have hopes for Yu Xuan.

She even was worried whether her master could survive...

Of course, Lin Xun knew that Liu Qingyan, like her master, just regarded him as an ordinary bodyguard.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t explain anything to her, so he just smiled and left.

The same day, Lin Xun called Qiu Kui and Dong Ye to tell them that he no longer needed them to serve him.

Although they did not know the reason, the two still agreed and quickly left.

That evening, a man in a blue robe came to the courtyard and shouted from the outside. “Junior Sister Liu, Senior Sister Wu Yunlian invites you to the Treasure Alms.”

Wu Yunlian?

Liu Qingyan, who was playing the zither in the room, tensed up upon hearing the invitation. Why would it be her?

Before she could reply, Lin Xun spoke from the courtyard, “Miss Qingyan is in closed-door cultivation. I’m afraid she won’t be going out for a while. Please go back.”

Outside the courtyard, the man in blue frowned, “Are you Yu Xuan from the Imperial Yu Clan? I’m talking to Junior Sister Liu, you’d better not interrupt!”

Even Liu Qingyan addressed Yu Xuan as a senior, but the man in blue actually called him by his name and showed no respect to him.

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows, thinking about the note he received a few days ago. Could it be that he thinks I will be scared after being warned and threatened?

He stood up and walked out the courtyard.

“Senior…”

Liu Qingyan’s heart tensed up, and she was about to dissuade him when Lin Xun waved his hand, smiled, and told her to leave it to him.

“Young man, have your parents not taught you to respect your elders?”

Lin Xun opened the courtyard door and spoke calmly.

The man in a blue robe looked at him blankly and pointed to himself. “Are you lecturing me?”

Lin Xun crossed his arms and leaned against the door while looking the man in blue up and down. “You little trash, you are so disrespectful and aggressive. If you were in the outside world, I would have killed you already. You better disappear from my sight now.”

The blue-robed man flew into a rage. “Yu Xuan, do you really think of yourself as a top figure?”

Lin Xun sighed, glanced around and muttered to himself, “If word gets out that a kid dares to bully me, then the elders and ancestors of the Yu Family will definitely call me a spineless coward...”

The man in blue robe sneered, “Yu Xuan, you are on Whirlwind Ship, a territory of the Heavenly Sound Pavilion. I am already respecting you by letting you stay here. If you know what’s good for you, then you’d better not play with fire!”

His voice was full of threat.

Lin Xun had no idea what gave the blue-robed man the courage to be so domineering.

“If I beat you up now, I will definitely be seen as bullying the weak. So, I will be the bigger person and spare you this one time.”

Bang!

Lin Xun slammed the courtyard gate shut.

The blue-robed man stood stunned. Is Yu Xuan really giving in?
