fù wáng !” tīng tiān shī shàng rén zhè yàng shuō ,.
父王!”听天狮上人这样说,.
"Father!" Hearing what Senior Lion Heaven said,
“ nǐ bié chā zuǐ , wèi fù zì yǒu fēn cùn 。”
“你别插嘴,为父自有分寸。”
"You should not interrupt. I have my own measure."
shī zhēng de yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī lǚ bù gān zhī sè , dàn duì shàng fù qīn yán lì de yǎn shén , yě zhǐ hǎo guāi
师峥的眼中闪过一缕不甘之色,但对上父亲严厉的眼神,也只好乖
Master Zhi's eyes flashed with a hint of reluctance, but when he met his father's stern gaze, he could only obediently close his mouth.
guāi bì zuǐ 。
乖闭嘴。
All eyes were fixed on Lin Xuan.
suǒ yǒu rén de mù guāng , quán dōu luò zài lín xuān shēn shàng 。
所有人的目光,全都落在林轩身上。
"How many questions do you want to ask me?" Lin Xuan glanced at Senior Lion Heaven. "Old guy, stop acting like an old man in front of this young master. I and YuanYuan are deeply in love. What makes you think you have the right to ask me any questions?"
“ wèn wǒ jǐ gè wèn tí ?” lín xuān xié nì le tiān shī shàng rén yī yǎn :“ lǎo jiā huǒ , shǎo zài běn shào yé miàn qián yǐ lǎo mài lǎo , wǒ yǔ yuàn yuàn liǎng qíng xiāng yuè , nǐ yǐ wéi nǐ suàn shén me dōng xī , lún dé dào nǐ lái wèn wǒ wèn tí ?”
“问我几个问题?”林轩斜睨了天狮上人一眼:“老家伙,少在本少爷面前倚老卖老,我与媛媛两情相悦,你以为你算什么东西,轮得到你来问我问题?”
Lin Xuan's principle was to remain low-key, but with things developing to this point, he couldn't avoid making enemies with Senior Lion Heaven.
dī diào shì lín xuān de yuán zé , rán ér shì qíng fā zhǎn dào zhè yī bù , yǔ tiān shī shàng rén jié chóu què yǐ jīng shì bù kě bì miǎn de 。
低调是林轩的原则,然而事情发展到这一步,与天狮上人结仇却已经是不可避免的。
Since they were going to break all pretenses, Lin Xuan didn't bother holding back.
jì rán yào sī pò liǎn pí , lín xuān yě jiù lǎn de liú shén me yú dì 。
既然要撕破脸皮,林轩也就懒得留什么余地。
With these words, everyone in the room was taken aback. Even Meng Ruyan was stunned. She considered herself quite a domineering figure, but compared to her brother, she felt inferior.
cǐ huà yī chū , mǎn zuò cuò è , biàn shì mèng rú yān yě jīng dāi le , tā zì wèn yǐ shì fēi cháng xiāo zhāng
此话一出,满座错愕,便是梦如嫣也惊呆了,她自问已是非常嚣张
Even if his powers rivaled those of Separation and Union, Senior Lion Heaven wasn't an easy opponent. Did he really want to make this a life-or-death grudge?
de rén wù , rán ér yǔ dì di xiāng bǐ , què zì kuì bù rú 。
的人物,然而与弟弟相比,却自愧不如。
"You...
jiù suàn tā de shén tōng kān bǐ lí hé , dàn tiān shī shàng rén yě bù hǎo rě , tā zhēn xiǎng yǔ duì fāng jié
就算他的神通堪比离合,但天狮上人也不好惹,他真想与对方结
Senior Lion Heaven almost couldn't believe what he was hearing. Since advancing to Separation and Union, no one had dared to be so domineering in front of him for many years.
xià bù gòng dài tiān de sǐ chóu me ?
下不共戴天的死仇么?
Do you think just because you're Dream Mother's brother, I can't kill you?
“ nǐ ……
“你……
"Boy, seeking death!"
tiān shī shàng rén jī hū bù xiāng xìn zì jǐ de ěr duǒ , zì cóng jìn jiē lí hé , yǐ duō shǎo nián méi yǒu rén gǎn zài zì jǐ miàn qián zhè yàng xiāo zhāng guò 。
天狮上人几乎不相信自己的耳朵,自从进阶离合,已多少年没有人敢在自己面前这样嚣张过。
He roared, his demonic power surging out and merging with the surrounding primordial energy. A massive light column formed, rushing towards Lin Xuan with overwhelming force.
zhēn yǐ wéi shì mèng rú mā de dì di , zì jǐ jiù bù gǎn shā nǐ ?
真以为是梦如妈的弟弟,自己就不敢杀你?
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted.
“ xiǎo zi , zhǎo sǐ !”
“小子,找死!”
Senior Lion Heaven's wrathful strike could annihilate an advanced cultivator.
tā yī shēng dà hē , kě pà de yāo lì fēng yōng ér chū , yǔ sì zhōu de tiān dì yuán qì xiāng qiǎng - bā , níng chéng le yī jù dà guāng zhù , yǐ pái shān dǎo hǎi de shēng shì xiàng zhe duì fāng fēng yōng ér qù le 。
他一声大喝,可怕的妖力蜂拥而出,与四周的天地元气相羟-扒,凝成了一巨大光柱,以排山倒海的声势向着对方蜂拥而去了。
But Lin Xuan's cultivation was far more profound than that of his peers. He reached out and slapped his waist, a dazzling ball of spiritual light appearing before him.
lín xuān tóng kǒng wēi suō 。
林轩瞳孔微缩。
It was a sword about a foot long, its surface cracked but with immense pressure.
tiān jǔ shàng rén de hán nù yī jī kě yǐ miè shā yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū xiān zhě 。
天榉上人的含怒一击可以灭杀元婴后期的大修仙者。
Lin Xuan grasped the sword without hesitation, his body emitting green light as he infused it with mana. A series of fist-sized talismans appeared on the blade, rotating and flashing before vanishing into Lin Xuan's body. His palm was enveloped in a layer of silver light, with small copper coin-sized scales appearing.
dàn lín xuān xiū wèi de jīng shēn chéng dù , què yào chāo guò tóng jiē xiū shì xǔ duō , tā shēn chū shǒu lái , zài yāo jiān yī pāi , yī tuán cuǐ càn de líng guāng fú xiàn zài yǎn qián 。
但林轩修为的精深程度,却要超过同阶修士许多,他伸出手来,在腰间一拍,一团璀璨的灵光浮现在眼前。
Though this process seemed complicated, it took only an instant.
shì yī bǐng chǐ xǔ zhǎng de duàn jiàn , biǎo miàn liè wén biàn bù , rán ér wēi yā què fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
是一柄尺许长的断剑,表面裂纹遍布,然而威压却非同小可。
Lin Xuan then swung his right hand down forcefully.
lín xuān háo bù yóu yù de tǐ shǒu wò zhù , hún shēn qīng guāng liú lí , jiāng fǎ lì zhù rù jìn qù , yí gè gè quán tou dà xiǎo de fú wén zài jiàn rèn shàng fú xiàn ér chū , suí hòu xuán zhuǎn shǎn shuò , mò rù lín xuān de qū tǐ zhī zhōng , tā de shǒu zhǎng bèi yī céng yín máng bāo guǒ , yí gè gè tóng qián dà xiǎo de lín piàn chū xiàn le 。
林轩毫不犹豫的体手握住,浑身青光流离,将法力注入进去,一个个拳头大小的符文在剑刃上浮现而出,随后旋转闪烁,没入林轩的躯体之中,他的手掌被一层银芒包裹,一个个铜钱大小的鳞片出现了。
Silently, a brilliant silver beam appeared in his vision.
zhè ge guò chéng shuō qǐ lái fán fù , qí shí bù guò yī shùn jiān de gōng fu 。
这个过程说起来繁复,其实不过一瞬间的功夫。
The surface was covered in talismans, clearly not something to be taken lightly.
suí hòu lín xuān yòu shǒu hěn hěn de jiāng cǐ jiàn xiàng xià huī luò 。
随后林轩右手狠狠的将此剑向下挥落。
It collided with the light column emitted by Senior Lion Heaven.
wú shēng wú xī , yī dào cuǐ càn de yín máng chū xiàn zài le shì xiàn lǐ 。
无声无息,一道璀璨的银芒出现在了视线里。
Boom!
biǎo miàn fú wén biàn bù , yī kàn jiù fēi tóng xiǎo kě 。
表面符文遍布,一看就非同小可。
A massive explosion echoed through the air, shaking the entire mountain peak.
suí hòu biàn yǔ tiān shī shàng rén fā chū de guāng zhù zhuàng zài yì qǐ le 。
随后便与天狮上人发出的光柱撞在一起了。
Senior Lion Heaven's anger was evident, but he hadn't used any treasures. Even if Lin Xuan's Magic Fate Sword was rare in the Spirit Realm, the outcome was clear. The light column was quickly devoured by silver sword energy and swept towards him.
hōng !
轰!
Senior Lion Heaven's face showed shock and anger as he realized how unexpected this result was.
jù dà de bào liè shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ , zhěng gè shān fēng , fǎng fú dōu hěn hěn de chàn dǒu 。
巨大的爆裂声传入耳朵,整个山峰,仿佛都狠狠的颤抖。
But being a veteran of Separation and Union, though he cursed inwardly, he wasn't afraid. He slapped his waist, and a black shield appeared, swirling into a bird-like light that enveloped him.
tiān shī shàng rén suī rán xīn zhōng fèn nù , dàn bì jìng méi yǒu dòng yòng bǎo wù , ér lín xuān shǒu zhōng de mó yuán jiàn jí biàn ná dào líng jiè , yě tóng yàng shì fēi cháng xī hǎn de , shèng fù zì rán shì méi yǒu xuán niàn 。
天狮上人虽然心中愤怒,但毕竟没有动用宝物,而林轩手中的魔缘剑即便拿到灵界,也同样是非常稀罕的,胜负自然是没有悬念。
Silver sword energy struck the surface, but it didn't break through.
nà guāng zhù yī shǎn , jiù bèi yín sè jiàn qì tūn mò , suí hòu hōng lōng lóng de xiàng zhe duì fāng xí juǎn guò qù
那光柱一闪,就被银色剑气吞没,随后轰隆隆的向着对方席卷过去
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed. Such an outcome was expected; even if a supreme treasure were as formidable as they came, it couldn't kill someone at Separation and Union stage instantly.
le 。
了。
His goal with this move was merely to intimidate.
tiān shī mǎn miàn cuò è , yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yòu jīng yòu nù zhī sè 。
天狮满面错愕,眼中闪过又惊又怒之色。
After all, in the cultivation world, strength spoke louder than words.
zhè jié guǒ shí zài shì tài chū hū tā yù liào le 。
这结果实在是太出乎他预料了。
No fair deals could be made without equal power.
bù guò tā bì jìng shì lí hé qī de lǎo guài wù , suī rán xīn zhōng àn jiào bù hǎo , dàn yě bìng bù hài pà , shēn shǒu zài yāo jiān yī pāi , yī qī hēi rú mò de dùn pái jiù fēi lüè chū lái 。
不过他毕竟是离合期的老怪物,虽然心中暗叫不好,但也并不害怕,伸手在腰间一拍,一漆黑如墨的盾牌就飞掠出来。
Lin Xuan's actions seemed rash but were actually meticulously planned.
yí gè pán xuán , jiù huà wèi yī céng niǎo guāng jiāng tā bāo guǒ zài lǐ miàn 。
一个盘旋,就化为一层鸟光将他包裹在里面。
Indeed, after his first strike, Senior Lion Heaven's anger dissipated, replaced by disbelief.
suí hòu yín sè jiàn qì rú yǐng suí xíng de hōng zài chūn miàn 。
随后银色剑气如影随形的轰在春面。
"Impossible. Could you possibly be holding a supreme treasure?"
niǎo guāng kuáng shǎn , rán ér què bìng méi yǒu pò kāi 。
鸟光狂闪,然而却并没有破开。
"Hmph, what kind of treasure is this? It has nothing to do with you," Lin Xuan coldly replied.
lín xuān yǎn jīng wēi mī , zhè yàng de jié guǒ , yě shì yì liào zhōng de shì , bì jìng jiù suàn tōng tiān líng bǎo zài biāo hàn , yě bù kě néng miǎo shā lí hé 。
林轩眼睛微眯,这样的结果,也是意料中的事,毕竟就算通天灵宝再彪悍,也不可能秒杀离合。
"Young man, even if you have a treasure, can you really stand on equal footing with me? Don't show too much arrogance or else I will definitely eliminate you at any cost."
tā zhè cì chū shǒu , bù guò shì gěi duì fāng yí gè zhèn shè 。
他这次出手,不过是给对方一个震慑。
Senior Lion Heaven's words were vicious, but there was evident trepidation behind the threat.
bì jìng xiū xiān jiè shì kào shí lì shuō huà de 。
毕竟修仙界是靠实力说话的。
After all, supreme treasures were legendary and incredibly powerful. This young man seemed to be far more formidable than ordinary cultivators. Combined with his power, it already posed a significant threat.
bù guǎn jiāo yì tán pàn , dōu bì xū zài shì jūn lì dí de shuāng fāng jiān cái néng zhǎn kāi , fǒu zé gēn běn jiù méi yǒu shén me gōng píng kě yán 。
不管交易谈判,都必须在势均力敌的双方间才能展开,否则根本就没有什么公平可言。
Moreover, if they really fought, Meng Ruyan wouldn't sit idly by; she would definitely intervene.
lín xuān zhè yàng zuò , kàn shì lǔ mǎng , qí shí què yǒu zhe shí fēn jīng xì de dǎ suàn 。
林轩这样做,看似鲁莽,其实却有着十分精细的打算。
"Hmph, I have no grudge with the Lion King. But YuanYuan is my wife, and your actions are too overbearing," Lin Xuan's tone had softened significantly.
guǒ rán yī jī zhī hòu , tiān shī shàng rén nù qì quán xiāo , qǔ ér dài zhī de shì nán yǐ zhì xìn zhī sè “ bù kě néng , nǐ shǒu lǐ ná zhe de , mò fēi shì tōng tiān líng bǎo ?”
果然一击之后,天狮上人怒气全消,取而代之的是难以置信之色“不可能,你手里拿着的,莫非是通天灵宝?”
Though this enmity was now established, it didn't necessarily mean they would fight here. Deep down, Lin Xuan had other plans.
“ hēng , zhè shì shén me bǎo wù , yǔ gé xià sì hū yě méi yǒu guān xì 。” lín xuān lěng lěng de kāi
“哼,这是什么宝物,与阁下似乎也没有关系。”林轩冷冷的开
"Spouse?" Senior Lion Heaven sneered. "Do you think you can marry the Peacock without parental consent or a matchmaker?"
“ xiǎo zi , jiù suàn nǐ yǒu yī jiàn líng bǎo yòu rú hé , zhēn yǐ wéi jiù néng yǔ lǎo fū píng qǐ píng zuò , wéi rén bú yào tài guò zhāng yáng bá hù , fǒu zé zhēn rě huǒ le lǎo fū , jiù suàn fù chū yī xiē dài jià , yě yí dìng jiāng nǐ cóng zhè shì jiān miè shā 。”
“小子,就算你有一件灵宝又如何,真以为就能与老夫平起平坐,为人不要太过张扬跋扈,否则真惹火了老夫,就算付出一些代价,也一定将你从这世间灭杀。”
"We are cultivators; we don't need to be bound by worldly conventions," Lin Xuan replied with disdain.
tiān shī shàng rén è hěn hěn de shuō , rán ér wēi xié bèi hòu , què míng xiǎn yǒu dài yǒu jǐ fēn jì dàn de wèi
天狮上人恶狠狠的说,然而威胁背后,却明显有带有几分忌惮的味
"Hmph, that's not how it works. The Peacock has the Five-Colored Fairy as her adoptive mother, a figure of great renown among us demons. If you want to marry her daughter, shouldn't you make some gesture?" Senior Lion Heaven spoke with righteous indignation, clearly leading Lin Xuan into a trap.
dào zài lǐ tou 。
道在里头。
After testing him, he knew this young man was not easily provoked and decided to use his wits instead of brute force.
bì jìng tōng tiān líng bǎo , nǎi shì chuán shuō zhī wù , wēi lì fēi tóng xiǎo kě , zhè lín xiǎo zi de shí lì , sì hū yě yuǎn shèng guò yì bān de dà xiū xiān zhě , liǎng zhě jié hé , yǐ jīng néng gěi tā zào chéng yí dìng de wēi xié le 。
毕竟通天灵宝,乃是传说之物,威力非同小可,这林小子的实力,似乎也远胜过一般的大修仙者,两者结合,已经能给他造成一定的威胁了。
"Gesture?" Lin Xuan's brows furrowed in surprise.
hé kuàng liǎng rén zhēn dòng shǒu , mèng rú yān nǎ huì zuò shān guān hǔ dòu , kěn dìng yě huì chū shǒu 。
何况两人真动手,梦如嫣哪会坐山观虎斗,肯定也会出手。
"Correct. As the king, I brought three dowries for my son. Whether it succeeds or fails, they show sufficient sincerity. If you want to marry YuanYuan, what kind of dowry do you bring?"
“ hēng , zài xià yǔ shī wáng běn wú yuān wú chóu , kě yuàn yuàn shì wǒ de ài qī , shì nǐ men xíng shì , qī rén tài shèn le xiē 。” lín xuān yě shì dǎ shé suí gùn shàng de zhǔ ér , yǔ qì míng xiǎn hé huǎn le xǔ duō 。
“哼,在下与狮王本无冤无仇,可媛媛是我的爱妻,是你们行事,欺人太甚了些。”林轩也是打蛇随棍上的主儿,语气明显和缓了许多。
Meng Ruyan's face turned extremely dark as she remained silent. This old lion had deep cunning.
suī rán zhè chóu shì jié dìng le , dàn què bù yí dìng yào zài zhè lǐ fān liǎn dòng shǒu , lín xuān de nèi xīn shēn
虽然这仇是结定了,但却不一定要在这里翻脸动手,林轩的内心深
The three dowries he brought were all against nature and impossible for even her brother to produce in the moment. Using such a method to pressure Lin Xuan was truly despicable.
chù , yǐ lìng yǒu yī fān bié de móu suàn le 。
处,已另有一番别的谋算了。
"What does this mean?" Lin Xuan coldly asked, showing no emotion on his face.
“ ài qī ?” tiān shī shàng rén de zuǐ jiǎo biān lù chū yī sī jī cháo zhī yì :“ wǒ wèn nǐ , nǐ yǔ
“爱妻?”天狮上人的嘴角边露出一丝讥嘲之意:“我问你,你与
Senior Lion Heaven observed with a hint of satisfaction; it was only a pretense of calmness.
kǒng què jié wèi shuāng xiū dào lǚ , kě yǒu fù mǔ zhī mìng , méi shuò zhī yán ?”
孔雀结为双修道侣,可有父母之命,媒妁之言?”
"Meaning? Are you asking knowingly or genuinely unsure. I'm saying that if you want to marry the Peacock, you need to bring some decent dowries and not be outdone by me," Senior Lion Heaven's smile revealed his wicked intentions as he looked at Lin Xuan.
"Father!" Hearing what Senior Lion Heaven said,
"You should not interrupt. I have my own measure."
Master Zhi's eyes flashed with a hint of reluctance, but when he met his father's stern gaze, he could only obediently close his mouth.
All eyes were fixed on Lin Xuan.
"How many questions do you want to ask me?" Lin Xuan glanced at Senior Lion Heaven. "Old guy, stop acting like an old man in front of this young master. I and YuanYuan are deeply in love. What makes you think you have the right to ask me any questions?"
Lin Xuan's principle was to remain low-key, but with things developing to this point, he couldn't avoid making enemies with Senior Lion Heaven.
Since they were going to break all pretenses, Lin Xuan didn't bother holding back.
With these words, everyone in the room was taken aback. Even Meng Ruyan was stunned. She considered herself quite a domineering figure, but compared to her brother, she felt inferior.
Even if his powers rivaled those of Separation and Union, Senior Lion Heaven wasn't an easy opponent. Did he really want to make this a life-or-death grudge?
"You...
Senior Lion Heaven almost couldn't believe what he was hearing. Since advancing to Separation and Union, no one had dared to be so domineering in front of him for many years.
Do you think just because you're Dream Mother's brother, I can't kill you?
"Boy, seeking death!"
He roared, his demonic power surging out and merging with the surrounding primordial energy. A massive light column formed, rushing towards Lin Xuan with overwhelming force.
Lin Xuan's pupils constricted.
Senior Lion Heaven's wrathful strike could annihilate an advanced cultivator.
But Lin Xuan's cultivation was far more profound than that of his peers. He reached out and slapped his waist, a dazzling ball of spiritual light appearing before him.
It was a sword about a foot long, its surface cracked but with immense pressure.
