Chapter 1032

“Demon God Lin from the West Infinity World showed off his brilliance once again this month. A few days ago, he broke the records of five towers in one sitting!”

“The records that Yun Qingbai set ten years ago have been beaten by a younger and stronger young man than he was back then!”

“In the past years, countless cultivators in the world have been asking whether anyone in the world could surpass Yun Qingbai, who is regarded as the number one person below the king stage.”

“Now, Demon God Lin appeared out of nowhere and answered that question for us!”

“Demon God Lin, a young man with no impressive background and no sect, has set off many storms across the West Infinity World, broke out of the encirclement of the Heaven Axis Holy Land and now, he is shining brightly in Baiyujing! Can his legendary path continue?”

“We are all full of anticipation!”

The top news of the Genius Legend Bulletin was written in a lengthy paragraph that was full of passion by the Windspeaker Clan.

The area was filled with endless uproars from the cultivators.

As the news said, it was unimaginable that a young man who belonged to no sect and who had no backing managed to create such miracles and write his own legends in the Ancient Wasteland Domain where all talents shone brilliantly!

However, the most unbelievable matter was that Demon God Lin continued to rise in an unstoppable manner under the suppression of countless ancient sects and clans. His brilliance had never been dimmed once.

“From now on, I will admire only Demon God Lin!”

Many young cultivators’ eyes lit up with reverence.

“Hmph, it’s the taller trees in the woods that get their tops destroyed. Even if Demon God Lin is remarkable, he hasn’t fully grown up and he could easily meet with misfortune!” someone snorted sourly.

“Damn, I respect Demon God Lin’s way of doing things. He has the guts to oppose so many ancient clans and sects at the same time. Who else in this world would have the courage comparable to Demon God Lin?”

The discussions continued.

A wave of dizziness swept over Lin Xun. He knew very well that after the news came out, whether it was the Heaven Axis Holy Land, the Omega Sword Sect, or other sects and forces who had an enmity with him, they would try to eliminate him like he was a thorn in the flesh.

The nail that stuck up gets hammered down. Now that he was always in the limelight, he was destined to draw a lot of attention.

They couldn’t possibly all be friendly!

“I finally understand why cultivators in the world love and hate the Windspeaker Clan so much...” Lin Xun’s lips twitched in a wry smile.

His reputation and name would spread further after he became the top news of the Genius Legend Bulletin.

This was also a kind of prestige.

But at the same time, it would also draw a lot of malicious attention onto him!

“From now on, who in the world wouldn’t know who you are?” Xiao Qinghe grinned at him.

Lin Xun grumbled, “Stop talking nonsense, let’s hurry up and leave.”

“Hey, why are you not happy? Any other cultivator would go crazy with joy if they achieved the fame that you have! Are you tired of fame?” Xiao Qinghe chuckled.

Not in the mood to joke around, Lin Xun frowned. “Without any backing or anyone to rely on, I am just like duckweed on the water. I will be swept away if a stormy wave comes. At present, fame does more harm than good to me.”

As he was speaking, he stepped away, hoping to leave the city as soon as possible.

“It seems like that guy hasn’t been blinded by his fame and achievements… Maybe that’s a real genius of heaven. He thinks of fame and riches as nothing more than floating clouds, and he only focuses on his own path...” With this thought, Xiao Qinghe quickly caught up with Lin Xun.

……

Outside Wuling City, Lin Xun was surrounded by undulating mountains and flourishing forests. Everywhere was a primitive scene.

The Three Clear Mountains where Spirit Treasure Holy Land was established was in the depths of this vast mountain range.

“Do you still plan to visit your friend?” Xiao Qinghe asked.

The Spirit Treasure Holy Land was also an ancient sect. Lin Xun’s disguising art might be superb, but if he dared to show up on Three Clear Mountains, the old monsters of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land could definitely see through his disguise and identify him.

“So, I’m going to ask you for a favor,” Lin Xun said with a smile.

“Me?” Xiao Qinghe was taken aback.

“Yes, it’s not convenient for me to show up in person so I want to ask you to go to Spirit Treasure Holy Land for me.”

“But...” Xiao Qinghe hesitated before finally saying, “I don’t mind, but you have to tell me who your friend is.”

“Zhao Jingxuan, a successor of Spirit Treasure Holy Land.”

Xiao Qinghe’s expression suddenly changed. “It’s her!”

Lin Xun frowned in surprise. “What? Do you know her?”

Xiao Qinghe’s expression twisted more strangely. Staring at Lin Xun, he said, “Can you first tell me what is your relationship with her?”

“Friends,” Lin Xun answered without any wavering.

“Are you two really just friends?” Xiao Qinghe questioned again.

Lin Xun sensed the suspicion in Xiao Qinghe’s questioning. He thought for a moment before he answered, “Yes, we are friends.”

Some things were hard to explain to Xiao Qinghe.

“That’s good.”

Xiao Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief. “I know Zhao Jingxuan, but it’s not because of how beautiful or amazing she is, but it’s because of a particular someone.”

“Who?” Lin Xun frowned.

“Yan Zhanqiu!” Xiao Qinghe paused at every word.

The name seemed to have some sort of magical power as Xiao Qinghe assumed a solemn expression when he spoke.

“Who’s that?”

“You have just come to the East Victory World so you might not know who Yan Zhanqiu is, but to other cultivators of the East Victory World, he is a legend-like, supreme genius.”

Xiao Qinghe’s voice was heavy, as though the name Yan Zhanqiu brought him great pressure.

“He is a disciple of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land and is from the Yan Clan, an ancient Saint family. He is currently ranked third on the Absolute Apex Giants List in the East Victory World!

“He was born with a dragon scale dao rune pattern on his back, and he inherently possesses the grand dao power of the Eight Heavenly Dragons. He has only practiced in the Spirit Treasure Holy Land for thirty years, but he has already earned the title of Invincible True Dragon.

“I heard from an old monster of the sect that Yan Zhanqiu has dragon blood flowing through his veins, and his maternal clan is very likely related to the bloodline of the ancient true dragon!”

Lin Xun’s eyes widened in astonishment.

Yan Zhanqiu not only had remarkable strength but a terrifying background. He came from the Yan Clan, a Saint family, and his mother’s family was very likely connected with the true dragon bloodline.

He now trained in one of the best ancient sects, Spirit Treasure Holy Land. His background and origin alone overshadowed those of the majority of the so-called geniuses in the world.

“Around six years ago, my senior brother Mi Hengzhen dueled with Yan Zhanqiu. No one knew what was happening or the outcome of the battle. But after it, my senior brother sighed that Yan Zhanqiu was indeed a dragon-like character and that he couldn’t help but admire him!”

Xiao Qinghe’s expression turned complex. “That was the first time that I heard my senior brother give such a high assessment to a person of his generation.”

Lin Xun couldn’t help but ask in puzzlement, “He might be a superb genius cultivator, but what does that have to do with Zhao Jingxuan?”

Xiao Qinghe’s expression turned strange again. “It’s very simple. Three years ago, I heard that a disciple from the Hidden Holy Land went to the Spirit Treasure Holy Land to propose marriage to Zhao Jingxuan. Do you know what happened after that?”

He answered before Lin Xun opened his mouth, “Yan Zhanqiu, who was in closed-door cultivation at the time, heard the news and abandoned his training. Despite the obstruction of many higher-ups of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land, he still attacked the Hidden Holy Land disciple without a word, and he almost beat the guy to death!”

Lin Xun’s expression tensed up. He vaguely guessed the reason.

“After that, he announced that whoever dared to be after Zhao Jingxuan in the future had to pass him first. He wouldn’t give face to even the king of heavens!”

Xiao Qinghe sighed, “This incident caused such a huge disturbance back then. Cultivators who did not know who Zhao Jingxuan was at first also would never forget that name after that.”

It was only at this point that Lin Xun finally understood why Xiao Qinghe asked him about his relationship with Zhao Jingxuan.

It turned out that Yan Zhanqiu was Zhao Jingxuan’s protector.

“But, what is the relationship between Yan Zhanqiu and Zhao Jingxuan?” Lin Xun asked with a frown, but he already had a speculation in his heart.

“It’s hard to say. Some people say that apart from cultivating, Yan Zhanqiu cares only about Zhao Jingxuan.

“Some people also say that Yan Zhanqiu regards Zhao Jingxuan as his future partner and that he does not allow other people to get near her.

“In short, we can conclude that the relationship between Yan Zhanqiu and Zhao Jingxuan is not that simple. Otherwise, why would Yan Zhanqiu, a heaven-defying monster-like character, care so much about Zhao Jingxuan?”

Xiao Qinghe then reminded him, “So, I advise you not to have other thoughts about that woman. Even as a friend, you should know your place and not provoke a powerful enemy like Yan Zhanqiu.”

Lin Xun sighed, feeling a little sour for no reason.

He hadn’t seen Zhao Jingxuan in years. He never thought that she would now have a protector.

Has she found her true love yet?

Or is she and Yan Zhanqiu already together?

Lin Xun’s thoughts were a little muddled and confused. He started to hesitate in whether he wanted to go and see Zhao Jingxuan now.

If he suddenly appeared in front of her, then would it bother her or bring her unnecessary trouble?

Also, after years of not seeing each other, she could have changed and not be the same anymore.

The image of a woman disguised as a man surfaced in Lin Xun’s mind. Not only was she graceful and beautiful, but her smile could also light up a room.

He felt more and more bitter and conflicted.

“Lin Xun, you...is there really nothing between you and Zhao Jingxuan?”

Xiao Qinghe asked suspiciously when he saw Lin Xun silent and his expression constantly changing.

“Stop talking nonsense!” Lin Xun glared at him, while he secretly took a deep breath, suppressing the unusual emotions in his heart.

“Then do you still want to visit your…friend?” asked Xiao Qinghe.

“Yes, why not? Do I have to change my mind because of Yan Zhanqiu?” Lin Xun smiled.

He realized that he had been overthinking everything.

Before he confirmed the relationship between Zhao Jingxuan and Yan Zhanqiu, it would be meaningless to think too much. He would just be bringing unnecessary worry to himself.

Moreover, now that he calmed down and thought about it carefully, there was no special relationship between him and Zhao Jingxuan. At best, they could be called friends who had been through ups and downs together.

As for whether this relationship could develop further...

He didn’t know.

In other words, he had never considered this all these years because he was not clear whether he liked Zhao Jingxuan romantically or whether they were just friends.

But no matter what, he had to see her!

“Ha, you’re right!”

Xiao Qinghe slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, “I forgot that you are Demon God Lin. I was worried over nothing!”

Then, he suddenly exclaimed excitedly, “Actually I’m really looking forward to it. You can take Zhao Jingxuan away from Yan Zhanqiu, and you can also use the opportunity to curb Yan Zhanqiu’s arrogance!”

Lin Xun stared at him speechlessly. This guy is so eager to see the world in chaos!

Not long after that, the two appeared in a mountain range surrounded by mountains and wilderness.

“I’ll wait for you here.” Lin Xun stopped.

In less than one thousand miles was Three Clear Mountains where the Spirit Treasure Holy Land was located.

“Wait to hear back from me.” Xiao Qinghe happily agreed.

As a successor of the Moon Sun Sacred Palace, he believed that it was not a big deal for him to visit Zhao Jingxuan and ask her to come out to catch up with Lin Xun.

……

On the peak of a steep, rocky mountain, Lin Xun sat in a daze, staring at the sea of clouds in the distance.

Memories from when he first met Zhao Jingxuan to all the times they spent together flooded his mind.

Zhao Jingxuan was captivatingly beautiful. She was bright, pure, natural and graceful. Her every frown, her every movement, and her every gesture was as refreshing as the spring breeze.

Lin Xun felt relaxed and free when he was with her. He could talk about anything to her without restraint.

Lin Xun had met many amazing women. The graceful and talented Liu Qingyan, the perfectly beautiful Bai Lingxi, and the intelligent and elegant Le Caiwei...

They each had their own beauty and elegance.

But Zhao Jingxuan was the only one who made Lin Xun feel extremely comfortable and at ease.

Every woman was unique, but Zhao Jingxuan was especially different to Lin Xun.

As for Xia Zhi…

Lin Xun’s heart tightened inexplicably, and then a wry smile came to his face, seemingly helpless.

“After many years…everyone changes, but...I wonder if Miss Zhao is also different from before...” murmured Lin Xun

The sea of clouds in the distance rolled endlessly, and under the slowly setting sun, glowed an array of mesmerizing colors.

Lin Xun appeared calm and composed on the outside, but his heart was rippling like the sea and his mind was bombarded by an endless stream of thoughts.

Huh?

When he activated his spirit sense, he detected rays of bright lights streaking across the sky thousands of miles away.

Lin Xun abruptly got up, his black hair blowing around his face and his moon-white robe rattling in the howling mountain wind.

In the distance, a sea of clouds hung around the sky, ablaze with the fire of the setting sun.
