Chapter 1078 Love is an Unsolvable Mystery

The cultivators were leaving Immortal Sacred Mountain one after another.

No one noticed that on the tops of the mountains, two youths in the prime of their lives were engaging in an ambiguous but sultry voice transmission.

The atmosphere was sensitive.

Although separated by two mountains, they seemed close enough to touch.

Zhao Jingxuan had not expected this at all. She was just worried about Lin Xun, but their chat suddenly took a romantic turn.

She didn’t know what to do with herself as her pretty face was dyed red. In Lin Xun’s eyes, her shy and embarrassed manner had such an exotic charm to it.

He dryly coughed. “Eh, erm…”

For a while, he didn’t know what to say. It felt like there were fluffy clouds drifting about in his heart, making him flustered.

“You idiot!” Zhao Jingxuang blurted out a laugh when she felt a sense of youthful clumsiness in Lin Xun that had never existed before.

“You’re the idiot here.” Lin Xun raised his eyebrows, very upset to be called so.

“Not happy about it, yeah? I’ve never seen such a clumsy idiot like you!” Zhao Jingxuan raised her brows and gave Lin Xun a sidelong glance.

Slender waist, delicate frame, and shiny white skin in a purple dress; a bright and beautiful face adorned with both exasperation and joy; a glare with a hint of mischief.

The ambiguous atmosphere suddenly vanished. Lin Xun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and felt like a weight had been lifted off of him. However, his heart felt a bit empty, like he had just missed out on something.

“Alright, I should go.” Zhao Jingxuan waved her hand and walked down the mountain.

“Just like that?” Lin Xun was stunned.

“You still have something you need to say?” Zhao Jingxuan turned around. When the mountain wind blew by, she gathered her silky hair behind her ears. This small, subconscious action exuded an indescribable beauty.

“Nothing.” Lin Xun hesitantly said, “Well then…take care!”

“You idiot…no, you witless imbecile!”

Zhao Jingxuan angrily glared at Lin Xun. Then, she suddenly laughed, realizing that her heart was in a strange place today.

“I’m really going.” Her voice was crystal clear and pleasant like heavenly music as she once again waved her hand.

“Didn’t your attitude change a little too fast? I offended the Spirit Treasure Holy Land the other day just to see you,” Lin Xun couldn’t help but shout.

Walking down the mountain path, Zhao Jingxuan did not look back.

Her hands crossed behind her back, her pace was light and cheerful, and she was completely unconcerned. “I’m not worried at all. A big idiot like you may experience a lot of difficulties, but you certainly won’t die easily. Even the king of hell won’t dare to accept you.”

“Are you complimenting me or dissing me?”

“What do you think, big idiot!?”

“I’m warning you, although we are good friends, you can’t call me a big idiot! How humiliating would it be for me if other people knew?”

“Heheh, big idiot!”

“You…”

Lin Xun was so angry that his teeth itched with an urge to chase after the misbehaving girl and teach her a lesson.

Meanwhile, Zhao Jingxuan smiled so widely that her eyes narrowed into crescent moons. Her lips curled up in a smug curve.

“That idiot is so clueless about romance! But…that’s quite cute,” she muttered.

If Lin Xun knew what she was thinking, he might just crumble.

How could he, the mighty Demon God Lin, have anything to do with the word ‘cute?’

But in the eyes of a certain person, even the stupidest idiot would be lovable as long as he was her type.

……

Zhao Jingxuan drifted farther and farther away, eventually joining up with the people of Spirit Treasure Holy Land.

Lin Xun retracted his gaze, his face flickering as he recalled what had just happened. Only after a long time did he mutter in annoyance, “What’s wrong with me?”

In the past, he could tease a lofty girl like Ji Xingyao without fear, and chat and laugh with a noble and intelligent woman like Le Caiwei with ease.

But only today, when talking with Zhao Jingxuan, there had always been a strange sense of restriction. He could not relax and seemed very clumsy, a little idiotic even…

Lin Xun was vexed. He inwardly took note to get his revenge the next time they met and let Zhao Jingxuan know what a mighty man he was!

However, as he watched her figure gradually disappear from his vision, his heart felt a little empty for some reason.

He couldn’t help but sigh.

He understood what was going on.

It was just…

What about Xia Zhi?

Inexplicably, Lin Xun remembered Xia Zhi, who had grown into a shockingly beautiful lady. He remembered what she had once said in a serious and calm tone—

“In my absence, you are forbidden from flirting with any women. It is not even allowed if they throw themselves at you.”

Recalling those words, Lin Xun’s vision blurred, and he gnashed his teeth angrily.

“Luckily, I refused to make that promise, or else I may have to be single for the rest of my life…” He exhaled a long sigh of relief.

But his head suddenly ached, remembering that in response to his objection, Xia Zhi had said she would only accept it if he could defeat her, otherwise, he would have no choice but to follow her demand.

In the end, Lin Xun snorted coldly. You’re just a little girl. When you awaken, I will defeat you first!

He decided that in order to avoid being single for the rest of his life, he must treat this matter as a top priority!

“Young man, there are nothing but challenges on the path of great dao. Don’t let beauty cloud your mind.”

The only one left on Immortal Sacred Mountain was the spirit servant. He saw all the changes in Lin Xun’s expression and could not help but give his advice, with the appearance of someone who had been in the same shoes.

Lin Xun was pulled out from his contemplation.

“Senior, you understand this kind of stuff?” he asked in surprise. It felt out of character for the spirit servant, who was a wisp of the Immortal Sacred Mountain’s Law Power and will, to preach about this matter.

“Humph! Although I’ve never eaten pork, I have seen a pig!” said the spirit servant disdainfully.

Lin Xun found it even more bizarre to hear such a vulgar analogy from the mouth of a majestic incarnation bathed in divine aura.

He almost choked and couldn’t help but ask, “Senior, I didn’t expect you to know so much. Why don’t you tell me, what is love?”

The question was asked jokingly, but the spirit servant was unexpectedly solemn as he replied, “You should know that ‘love’ is the most difficult thing to comprehend and is unsolvable.”

Only a few words, but they were deafening. Lin Xun was thunderstruck.

The spirit servant waved his hands. “Those are not my words. I’ll leave them for you to figure out later.”

“Love is difficult to comprehend and is unsolvable…” Lin Xun repeated as he recalled scenes from his memory, which caused him to sigh with new realizations.

“Let’s go, time is running out.” The spirit servant swung his sleeve, and they instantly vanished into thin air.

The vast Immortal Sacred Mountain was restored to its previous silent state. Only an immortal and indestructible breath permeated every inch of the ancient rock cliffs, undergoing the flow of time as it witnessed the world change.

……

“Senior Uncle Ma, we were thwarted badly by that Demon God Lin. More importantly, he regards Senior Yun Qingbai as an enemy!” On the way out of Immortal Forbidden Land, Kong Ling was speaking indignantly with the flames of hatred burning in her eyes, “No matter what, we must kill him.”

She recalled the scene when she had been defeated by Lin Xun, and her feathers had been burnt clean. As a descendant of the Five Colored Peacock Clan, she had felt so humiliated and on the verge of collapsing.

“There’s no need to rush. He can’t escape.”

The old man leading the group had an indifferent expression. His name was Ma Yuanqing, an old monster of the King stage.

His gaze swept ahead as he continued, “Look, many of those ancient clans are itching to put Lin Xun to death as well.”

Ahead of them, ancient lineage cultivators were leaving in densely packed groups. There were people from Spirit Treasure Holy Land, Heaven Axis Holy Land, and other clans of the East Victory World, as well as from Longevity Land, Azure Sea Sect, and similar great powers from other worlds.

“I have no doubt that we can kill him. I’m only worried that the other clans will beat us to it. There are too many forces aiming for him.” Kong Ling frowned.

Ma Yuanqing guffawed. “Hahaha, it doesn’t matter who kills Demon God Lin so long as we make sure that he is really dead.”

“But I’ve heard that he has a real Saint Treasure in possession and that he surely has many valuable secrets since he can become so powerful…”

Not waiting for Kong Ling to finish, Ma Yuanqing waved his hand dismissively. “That’s not a problem. The proof is in the pudding, we just need to make sufficient preparations.”

Speaking of preparations, Ma Yuanqing fell into deep thought.

Right outside Immortal Forbidden Land was the mysterious and unpredictable Star Chess Sea, which did not allow them to act recklessly. Therefore, in order to kill Lin Xun, the battlefield had to be on the other shore.

Crossing Star Chess Sea, one would arrive at Mysterious Ice Frost Plains. However, they only needed to restrict their power within the Star Chess seashore and seal any way out so as to intercept and kill Lin Xun.

But Ma Yuanqing knew the other groups likely had the same plan.

Moreover, Demon God Lin was not so easy to handle.

He had once killed a True King expert with his Saint Treasure and even heavily injured Ancestor Su Kong of Spirit Treasure Holy Land who was at the second longevity tribulation King stage.

That being the case, one had to take the most prudent approach if they wanted to deal with Demon God Lin!

Of course, Ma Yuanqing wasn’t worried about not being able to kill Lin Xun. He knew very well that the other clans would have the same mindset as their Omega Sword Sect and would each send out their most powerful forces.

Under these circumstances, what he needed to focus on was who would be the first to kill Lin Xun and seize his possessions!

Suddenly, a resentful roar echoed in the distance, interrupting Ma Yuanqing’s thoughts.

“Causing me to be expelled from the Little Giants List Competition? I’ll make sure that bastard Lin Xun dies an ugly death!” The speaker clearly did not hide his killing intent as his voice rumbled through the sky.

Everyone was startled. Looking over, it was Gou Yanzhen of Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan!

The corners of Ma Yuanqing’s lips rose into a sneer. This unlucky idiot blew himself up and now blames Demon God Lin for it.

“But this is for the best. As repulsive as the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan is, their attacks are crazy. This time…Demon Lin is doomed!”

Ma Yuanqing’s eyes flickered with a ruthless glint. He had a premonition that a storm targeting Lin Xun was about to gather on the other side of Star Chess Sea.
