Chapter 88: Xuan: Celestial Master, this kid cannot be left alive

~8 min read 1,499 words

"News from the Yaoxing Society?"

Xu Si took a glance and discovered it was a report from the Yaoxing Society.

And in the picture above, it was indeed Lin Xuan.

There was also a big monk turning around and sprinting away.

"One million? I don't have money."

Feng Baobao leaned over to look, though it was unclear if she understood it.

But she had still heard Zhang Chulan's words.

Xu Si also clicked his tongue.

As the person in charge of the Huabei District, one of the seven major districts, there was funding available, and quite a lot of it.

One million was a small sum relative to the budget, but relative to them, it was certainly not a small sum.

As a Temporary Worker, the subsidy Feng Baobao received for a single mission was only four digits, or five digits if it was overly dangerous.

The reason was, by Nature, to keep everything looking as normal as possible and not attract attention.

"Xu Si, you said you'd help me get it."

Feng Baobao touched her pocket, knowing she didn't have enough money.

Xu Si felt a headache upon hearing this and turned his head to look at Xu San.

Xu San pretended not to see.

"Ahem, Baobao, I said I'd help you ask about it."

"You said you'd help me get it."

Feng Baobao directly rewrote history; although it had just happened, Feng Baobao now wore an expression of righteous indignation while telling a lie.

"I..." Xu Si looked at Feng Baobao's vacant gaze and twitched the corner of his mouth.

"I'll try my best!"

"That's good, it's up to you!"

Feng Baobao nodded in satisfaction and sat back to the side to play on her phone.

The other three looked at each other.

"This grandson is truly crooked; he sold it to Baobao for tens of thousands, yet he actually swindled the guy out of over a million. Xu San, notify the brothers down the mountain to arrest this big monk.

This grandson is committing fraud, and the amount is extremely huge."

Xu Si said through gritted teeth.

"That's not necessarily true. Do you think this person is someone without an eye for quality?"

Xu San, however, saw something in this news.

Although Lin Xuan was young, his strength was so great that he shouldn't be someone easily fooled like that.

"So, could this Bead Bracelet really be a treasure?"

Zhang Chulan rubbed his chin and ventured a guess.

"Hmm, that should be the case, so Baobao didn't see it wrong."

Xu San said this while looking at Feng Baobao, who was playing a game to the side, rubbed his chin, and then looked at Xu Si.

Xu Si looked embarrassed under their gaze.

It was he who had forcibly taken Feng Baobao away.

"That old monk looked like a swindler!"

Xu Si defended himself.

"Brother Si isn't wrong; that old monk is indeed a swindler, and he might not even know the true nature of this Bead Bracelet."

Zhang Chulan hurriedly said.

Xu Si gave Zhang Chulan an appreciative look.

However, they all became interested in the Bead Bracelet in Lin Xuan's hand.

……

"He's here!"

Wang Ai looked at Wang Bing and said.

"I saw him!"

Wang Bing said with his head lowered, his body trembling slightly.

Just as the drawing of lots was about to end, Wang Bing saw Lin Xuan.

In fact, Wang Bing and Lin Xuan had only met once, and they hadn't even exchanged more than two or three sentences.

But now, after seeing Lin Xuan, he was still trembling all over with fear.

"You're afraid!"

Wang Ai frowned at Wang Bing, completely forgetting that he himself had pretended not to exist when he saw Lin Xuan.

"Yeah!"

Wang Bing nodded very honestly.

He was just afraid!

"He won't participate in this competition, and his strength has already reached the level of the older generation. If you don't provoke him, nothing will happen."

Wang Ai had to try to put Wang Bing's mind at ease.

But whether Wang Bing could take it in was unknown.

Contrary to the atmosphere here was the situation with Lu Jin.

Lu Linglong and her friends came to see Lu Jin and spoke about seeing Lin Xuan after the drawing of lots.

"Is Senior Brother really not participating?"

Lu Linglong asked curiously.

"He's not participating; if he were to participate, it would purely be bullying people."

Lu Jin shook his head immediately upon hearing this.

"What a pity, I was still hoping to spar with Senior Brother!"

Lu Linglong rubbed her hands together, looking expectant.

Once these words were out, everyone else stared straight at Lu Linglong, and even Lu Jin's eyes twitched a few times.

"Don't talk about now, even if the you of today ran into that kid from four years ago, you wouldn't be able to take a single slap from him."

Lu Jin said, shaking his head.

"Senior Brother wouldn't have the heart to hit me!"

Lu Linglong put her hands on her hips, looking smug.

"Linglong, him not hitting you just means you haven't provoked him yet; if you did provoke him, you might just get a spanking!"

Zhi Jinhua looked at Lu Linglong's smug expression and poured cold water on her to make her calm down.

"Little Hua, I know you're envious, but envy is useless."

Lu Linglong's expression and tone didn't change at all upon hearing this.

"Alright, all of you put in some effort for tomorrow's competition."

Old Master Lu Jin spoke, and the group of juniors naturally dared not be negligent, answering one after another.

Looking at this group of juniors, Lu Jin thought of Lin Xuan and couldn't help but shake his head.

The Triple Inverse Life is one thing; although it has been modified many times and the first stage is not dangerous, the difficulty of practicing it is still very high.

On the other hand, the Heaven-Reaching Talisman might be simpler to learn.

But the key is that this group of juniors cannot handle such a thing.

If he really taught these juniors the Heaven-Reaching Talisman, it would be harming them.

Conversely, for Lin Xuan, he doesn't worry about it bringing danger after learning it, but the guy doesn't even look down on it.

The Talisman techniques of the Quanzhen Longmen Sect are not weaker than those of the Shangqing Maoshan or Longhu Mountain, and might even be stronger.

But Lin Xuan clearly has no interest in the Talisman Dao.

But thinking about it, that makes sense; given Lin Xuan's current situation, he truly doesn't need to learn any Talisman Dao.

Just the means he has already displayed, Talismans would at most be icing on the cake.

……

The Longhu Mountain Grand Rite of Heaven and Earth is about to begin, and all parties have their own ideas.

Wudang did not have any seniors come along this time, and Wang Ye is thinking about one thing by himself.

After mastering the Feng Hou Qi Men, or rather, as a warlock, one will subconsciously use the means they have learned to predict what will happen next before doing anything.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a warlock's instinct.

And this time, after understanding the cause and effect of the matter, Wang Ye discovered that this matter is of great importance.

Of course, Wang Ye didn't dare to use his Inner Scene or the means he learned to predict anything regarding Lin Xuan.

After all, Lin Xuan left a deep impression on Wang Ye; after mastering warlock means, Wang Ye had tried it once, and then almost died.

Using warlock means to understand Lin Xuan is like trying to analyze the entire world.

Such a thing is an unsolvable matter for Wang Ye.

Fortunately, it is a little better this time, but not by much.

"What will happen when two factors capable of influencing the entire world gather together?"

Wang Ye thought for a moment, and when the sky turned dark, he set off directly toward the Tianshi's residence.

After quietly flying down, Wang Ye poked his head out to look around.

"Since you've come, come on in!"

The voice of Lao Tianshi rang out.

Wang Ye was not surprised when he heard this; after all, he had never harbored any delusions about being able to hide anything from Lao Tianshi.

However, as soon as the door opened, Wang Ye saw Lin Xuan and Tian Jinzhong with green-blue electric light flashing in their hands, as well as Lao Tianshi sitting quietly on the other side.

"It's Wang Ye."

Lao Tianshi looked at Wang Ye and said cheerfully.

"Tianshi, this kid stumbled upon this matter; it seems he cannot be left alive."

Lin Xuan tilted his head slightly, looking at Wang Ye as he spoke.

In an instant, Wang Ye felt all the hairs on his body stand up.

A chill shot straight from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
