Chapter 89: I Rarely Injure People! Wang Ye: I Believe You

Wang Ye, who had one foot stepped into the room, stiffened.

He turned his head stiffly to look at Lin Xuan.

"How about this, kid steps back out? You three just pretend you never saw me?"

Wang Ye twitched the corner of his mouth as he spoke.

Lin Xuan retracted the lightning, turned around, and looked at Wang Ye.

"I always thought your temperament was quite serious; I didn't expect you to be able to joke around too."

Lao Tianshi was also taken aback by Lin Xuan's words, then said with a chuckle.

"Occasionally, occasionally!"

Lin Xuan smiled and sat down on a seat to the side, looking at Wang Ye as he said: "I've seen you before; four years ago, you came to Baiyun Guan with your master's master."

Wang Ye let out a sigh of relief.

He cupped his hands in a salute.

"Junior Wang Ye greets Tianshi, greets Senior, and greets... uh, Daoist."

"No need for formalities, but why are you running over here in the middle of the night instead of resting?"

Lao Tianshi sized up Wang Ye and asked with a smile.

"What else could he be doing? Naturally, he's here to test Tianshi's methods."

Lin Xuan interjected, feeling a bit curious about the Marquis of Wind's Strange Gates on Wang Ye.

Of course, it wasn't out of any ulterior motive, just pure curiosity.

"Yo, if that's really the case, the little fellow has commendable courage!"

Tian Jinzhong, feeling the tingling sensation in his body fade away, looked at Wang Ye with some surprise.

"You really intend to come and test this old Daoist's level?"

"I wouldn't dare!"

Wang Ye hesitated for a moment.

If it were just Tianshi alone, it would be fine, but now that there were two more people, Wang Ye was somewhat hesitant.

"It's 'wouldn't dare,' not 'don't want to.' Shall I let this old Daoist test you?"

Wang Ye really seemed to have that intention, which made Lao Tianshi somewhat curious.

"Then please, Tianshi, grant me your guidance!"

Wang Ye's personality was just like that; although he wanted to retreat because Lin Xuan and Tian Jinzhong were there, upon hearing Tianshi's words, he simply agreed directly.

After finishing his cupped-hand salute, he moved his feet.

As a result, before the Marquis of Wind's Strange Gates could even be deployed, he had already retreated violently out of the room and arrived in the courtyard.

Lao Tianshi's figure was like an Instant Teleportation, arriving directly behind Wang Ye in the courtyard.

"Tianshi is still as vigorous as ever!"

Lin Xuan sighed with emotion.

His movement technique had not the slightest bit of sluggishness.

Tianshi was already over a hundred years old now, yet his movement technique was still this fast.

Just as Lin Xuan's voice fell, the exchange in the courtyard ended.

Calling it an exchange, it was actually just Wang Ye relying on the Marquis of Wind's Strange Gates to try something, only to have a huge chunk of his mana bar used up with only the tiniest bit of effect.

Then, Lao Tianshi walked back, and Wang Ye followed him in, covered in sweat.

"Some methods are very miraculous, but they aren't easy to use. If you want to use the methods of a warlock, it's not without a price."

Looking at Wang Ye's state, Lin Xuan spoke up.

Lao Tianshi turned and sat down; after hearing Lin Xuan's words, he looked at Lin Xuan and stroked the beard on his chin.

"You saw it?"

"It's so obvious, of course I saw it."

As Lin Xuan said this, he looked at Wang Ye.

Wang Ye's expression was somewhat awkward.

"Once one becomes a warlock, one always feels that they can grasp many things."

Lin Xuan's words naturally referred to all the warlocks in this world of Outsiders.

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Daoist, you jest; I am very honest."

"Alright, tell us specifically, what exactly did you come here for?"

Seeing Wang Ye like this, Lao Tianshi shook his head slightly and asked.

"Can I say it?"

Wang Ye looked at Lin Xuan, then looked at Tian Jinzhong.

"What is there that cannot be said? There are no outsiders here."

"Sigh, actually, it's just about the upcoming competition. I just came to see the world, and I know your intentions, Tianshi, so you don't need to worry about my side.

Afterwards, if I encounter any experts, I can also help out a bit."

Wang Ye smiled awkwardly and then stated his purpose.

Lao Tianshi's expression was surprised, and then he looked at Lin Xuan.

"See, I told you, warlocks are all like this."

Lin Xuan spread his hands, but after turning his head to look at Wang Ye, a smile appeared on Lin Xuan's face.

"Since you are a warlock, I wonder if you have tried to understand my situation?"

Upon hearing these words, Wang Ye's expression changed.

"It seems you really have tried it; how did it go?"

Lin Xuan was actually quite curious.

"I can't say, but you don't need to worry about this in the future anyway."

Wang Ye hesitated for a moment before saying.

"I see, I understand roughly."

It seems it is very difficult even for a warlock to understand his own situation; even Wang Ye, who has mastered the Wind Hou Strange Gate, cannot do it.

Lin Xuan thought to himself, and did not continue to speak.

"Although warlock methods are peculiar, they should not be used too much. Little Wang Ye, go back and ask Li Shiye later, and you will know."

Lao Tianshi offered a word of advice.

"Eh, you can rest assured about that, I am still very honest."

Wang Ye said hurriedly.

"You are honest?"

Lao Tianshi's expression was strange, and he waved his hand.

"I should be going too; I will come back tomorrow after the competition ends."

Lin Xuan also stood up directly.

"Sorry for the trouble."

It was getting late, and Lao Tianshi did not stop him.

Then, Lin Xuan and Wang Ye left together.

"This child?"

"I don't know where he learned those warlock methods; they shouldn't be Wudang methods, but Lin Xuan seems to have seen something."

Lao Tianshi spoke upon hearing this, then looked at Tian Jinzhong.

"How is your situation?"

"It's alright; I can indeed feel the circulation of Qi."

Hearing the Tianshi ask this, Tian Jinzhong nodded and stated his feelings.

A portion of the meridians should have been repaired.

However, the newly repaired meridians certainly cannot be left to the circulation of Qi at will.

"Hmm, I will have someone send you back."

The Tianshi nodded upon hearing this, let out a sigh of relief, and stood up to say.

……

On the other side.

Lin Xuan and Wang Ye were walking side by side; Wang Ye was hanging his head, clearly feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Lin Xuan asked.

"Look at how you ask that. In this Outsider world, those who aren't afraid of you could probably be counted on one hand. Besides, you really gave me a fright just now.

I thought you were going to take action and finish me off."

Wang Ye patted his chest and said.

"There's no benefit in finishing you off."

"Eh? Does that mean if there were a benefit, you could finish me off?"

Wang Ye subconsciously took two steps to the side.

"I rarely take action to hurt people!"

Noticing Wang Ye's movement, Lin Xuan shook his head slightly.

"I believe you!"

Wang Ye nodded immediately, but what appeared in his mind was the incident from four years ago.

The dozens of people from the Quanzhen Sect who died, they probably believed it too.

Moreover, Wang Ye also thought of the scene of thunder across the sky and the Inner Elixir he saw that day.

Lin Xuan turned his head to look at Wang Ye, then shook his head slightly.

"Alright, I'm off first!"

Waving his hand, Lin Xuan prepared to turn.

"That, are you also going to participate in this competition?"

Wang Ye hesitated for a moment and called out.

"Why? After trying it with the Tianshi, you want to try it with me?"

Lin Xuan turned his head, a smile appearing on his face.

"Of course not!"

Wang Ye shook his head immediately and stepped back two more paces.

"It's just that, I was thinking, if you participate, I will withdraw from the competition as soon as possible."

"Then you can rest assured, I won't participate, so I won't bully you all."

Lin Xuan waved his hand, "Also, don't use honorifics; I'm a few years younger than you, just call me Lin Xuan."

After speaking, Lin Xuan stepped forward and walked toward his residence.

Wang Ye raised his hand and scratched his face.

Although he said it like that, the scene he saw at Baiyun Guan four years ago made it impossible for him to treat it with a calm heart.
