wàng zhuó yǎn qián mián yán qǐ fú de dà shān ． lín xuān yě bù yóu de yǒu xiē gǎn kǎi ， xī rì ， yuàn yuàn jiù shì zhè lǐ de yī fāng lǐng zhǔ ． yǔ ài qī xiāng yù de qíng jǐng hái lì lì zài mù 。[]
望着眼前绵延起伏的大山．林轩也不由得有些感慨，昔日，媛媛就是这里的一方领主．与爱妻相遇的情景还历历在目。[]
Looking at the vast, undulating mountains before him, Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Previously, Yuan Yuan had been the ruler of this very place. The scene of meeting his beloved wife was still vivid in his mind.
lín xuān de yǎn zhōng ． fú xiàn chū yī sī wēn róu zhī sè ， bù guò hěn kuài ． jiù bèi hěn lì suǒ dài tì le 。
林轩的眼中．浮现出一丝温柔之色，不过很快．就被狠厉所代替了。
Lin Xuan's eyes softened with tenderness, only to be quickly replaced by a fierce expression.
yuàn yuàn hái zài wǔ sè líng shān jìng xiū ． cǐ shí cǐ kè ． kě bú shì ér nǚ qíng cháng de shí hòu 。
媛媛还在五色灵山静修．此时此刻．可不是儿女情长的时候。
Yuan Yuan was still deep in her cultivation at the Five-Colored Spirit Mountain. It wasn't the time for personal matters now.
zhè lǐ shì luó jiā de mì mì zǒng tán ， xiǎng bì tā men de dà bù fèn gāo shǒu dōu yīng gāi jǐn jí yú cǐ 。 bāo kuò nà míng yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū shì 。
这里是罗家的秘密总坛，想必他们的大部分高手都应该尽集于此。包括那名元婴后期的大修士。
This was the Luo Family’s secret headquarters. Most of their powerful experts should be gathered here, including that late-stage Immortal婴后期 cultivator.
bù guò méi yǒu guān xì ． zì jǐ yǐ jìn jiē lí hé ， dí rén jiù suàn zài duō ． yǔ zì jǐ fàng duì yě bù guò shì fēi é pū huǒ 。
不过没有关系．自己已进阶离合，敌人就算再多．与自己放对也不过是飞蛾扑火。
But it didn’t matter. Having advanced to the Separation stage, even if his enemies were numerous, they would only be like moths drawn to a flame.
lín xuān zuò shì qíng kě bù xǐ huān tuō tuō lā lā de ． jì yǐ chū shǒu ． jiù yào yǐ léi tíng zhī shì jiāng luó jiā de wēi xié jiě chú 。
林轩做事情可不喜欢拖拖拉拉的．既已出手．就要以雷霆之势将罗家的威胁解除。
Lin Xuan was not one for dragging things out. Once he acted, he intended to eliminate the Luo Family's threat with lightning speed.
yǎn zhōng shǎn guò yī mǒ lì sè ， lín xuān jiān tóu wēi dǒu ， yǐ jìn rù dào le kuí yīn shān mài zhī zhōng 。
眼中闪过一抹厉色，林轩肩头微抖，已进入到了奎阴山脉之中。
A look of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he subtly moved and entered the Qui Yin Mountain range.
zuò wèi xiū shì jìn dì ． cǐ shān mài guǎng kuò yǐ jí ． yāo shòu gèng shì shǔ bù shèng shǔ ， bù guò duì rú jīn de lín xuān lái shuō 、 què fēn háo wēi xié yě wú 。
做为修士禁地．此山脉广阔以极．妖兽更是数不胜数，不过对如今的林轩来说、却分毫威胁也无。
As a cultivator, this mountain range held no secrets for him. He saw these figures as mere targets on the verge of death—what was there to discuss with corpses?
tā bìng méi yǒu yǐn cáng xíng jì ， rán ér kě pà de wēi yā què ràng yāo shòu men āi míng bù yǐ ． duǒ bì táo cuàn shàng qiě lái bù jí ． nǎ hái gǎn zhǔ dòng chū jī 。
他并没有隐藏行迹，然而可怕的威压却让妖兽们哀鸣不已．躲避逃窜尚且来不及．哪还敢主动出击。
With a flick of his right hand, Lin Xuan prepared to swiftly end the lives of his enemies.
qián hòu jǐn jǐn huā le bú dào yí gè shí chén de gōng fu 。 lín xuān jiù lái dào le mò chóu gǔ 。
前后仅仅花了不到一个时辰的功夫。林轩就来到了莫愁谷。
"Whoosh..."
yǔ bá chú fēn duò shí yù jiàn de qíng jǐng chà bu duō ， cái gāng jiē jìn jiù yù jiàn le jǐng jiè xún luó de xiū xiān zhě 。
与拔除分舵时遇见的情景差不多，才刚接近就遇见了警戒巡逻的修仙者。
A chilling sound echoed in his ears, causing the world around him to tremble. But at that moment, Lin Xuan's eyes widened as disbelief crossed his face.
bù guò jìng jiè què bǐ fēn duò zhí shì gāo chū xǔ duō ， wǔ rén wú yī lì wài quán shì níng dān qī de gāo jiē xiū xiān zhě 。
不过境界却比分舵执事高出许多，五人无一例外全是凝丹期的高阶修仙者。
"What...?"
dāng rán ． jié guǒ hái shì yī yàng de 。
当然．结果还是一样的。
Though he didn’t want to waste time with dying opponents, his gaze swept over the faces of several late-stage Immortal cultivators. He quickly noticed something alarming.
duì rú jīn de lín xuān lái shuō ， zhù jī níng dān shì fēn háo qū bié yě wú 。
对如今的林轩来说，筑基凝丹是分毫区别也无。
The other four seemed unremarkable, but one woman in particular stood out. Her attire was formidable and she was clearly a late-stage Immortal.
dòng dòng shǒu zhǐ jiù jiāng wǔ rén qǔ xià le tóu lú ， yuán shén zé bèi xī rù mó fān zhī zhōng 。
动动手指就将五人取下了头颅，元神则被吸入魔幡之中。
Lin Xuan’s shock wasn’t due to her strength; an ordinary late-stage Immortal posed no challenge.
zhè yī huí ． kě shì tǒng le mǎ fēng wō 、 mò chóu gǔ jǐng zhōng dà zuò 。
这一回．可是捅了马蜂窝、莫愁谷警钟大做。
What caught his attention was the woman's appearance—familiar yet strikingly beautiful. Her lips were like pearls, her skin as smooth as water. She was undoubtedly a vision of beauty, barely in her twenties.
suí hòu guāng huá sì qǐ ， shù bǎi dào dùn guāng jìn rù dào le yǎn lián lǐ 。
随后光华四起，数百道遁光进入到了眼帘里。
She must have cultivated longevity techniques, and they were quite advanced. Unlike ordinary beauties, she had an aura that exuded a sense of ruthlessness. Despite practicing orthodox cultivation methods, the malevolent energy around her rivaled those from the demonic sects.
jiù rén shù lái shuō ． hái yuǎn bù jí zì jǐ gāng gāng suǒ tiāo de fēn duò ． dàn xiū xiān kàn kàn de shì shí lì rú hé ， yǐ duō wèi shèng bù néng shuō méi yǒu yòng chǔ ． dàn xiào guǒ què yuǎn méi yǒu xiǎng xiàng de nà yàng míng xiǎn de 。
就人数来说．还远不及自己刚刚所挑的分舵．但修仙看看的是实力如何，以多为胜不能说没有用处．但效果却远没有想象的那样明显的。
Her unique presence drew attention, but Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted, his voice dry as he spoke:
zhè liǎng bǎi duō míng xiū xiān zhě ． cái zhēn zhèng shì luó jiā zuì hòu de jīng ruì le 。
这两百多名修仙者．才真正是罗家最后的精锐了。
"Red... Red Ling Immortal..."
qí zhōng yǐ níng dān qī xiū shì jū duō 、 jìng zhàn le qī chéng zuǒ yòu ， shèng xià de zhù jī qī xiū xiān zhě wú yī bú shì zī zhì chū zhòng ， dàn zuì xǐng mù dì hái shì zhàn zài qián miàn de sān nán liǎng nǚ ， suī xíng mào gè yì ． dǎ bàn yě dà bù xiāng tóng ． dàn qì shì què bǐ yú rén gāo chū xǔ duō 。
其中以凝丹期修士居多、竟占了七成左右，剩下的筑基期修仙者无一不是资质出众，但最醒目的还是站在前面的三男两女，虽形貌各异．打扮也大不相同．但气势却比余人高出许多。
It was none other than the female ancient cultivator from Yu Xuan Sect. If not for this woman, he wouldn’t have had the experience with Jia Ling Island. His impression of her was profound.
bú yòng shuō ． tā men jiù shì luó jiā zuì hòu de yuán yīng qī zhǎng lǎo le gǎn shòu dào lín xuān de wēi yā fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， luó jiā dì zi qīng cháo ér chū ， xiǎng yào yī yōng ér shàng jiāng tā miè chú 。
不用说．他们就是罗家最后的元婴期长老了感受到林轩的威压非同小可，罗家弟子倾巢而出，想要一拥而上将他灭除。
He was confident in his recognition but found it hard to believe she would be here.
lín xuān bù jǐn bù huāng ． zuǐ jiǎo biān fǎn ér lù chū xiào róng 、 duì fāng zhè me zuò ， yǒu rú sòng yáng rù hǔ kǒu duì zì jǐ lái shuō ． bù jǐn fēn háo hài chù yě wú ， fǎn ér nán lì yú jiāng duì fāng gěi yī wǎng dǎ jìn le 。
林轩不仅不慌．嘴角边反而露出笑容、对方这么做，有如送羊入虎口对自己来说．不仅分毫害处也无，反而喃利于将对方给一网打尽了。
Was it a case of mistaken identity?
xīn zhōng zhè yàng xiǎng zhe ． lín xuān yòu shǒu tái qǐ ， fǎn zhèng zhè xiē jiā huo zài tā de yǎn zhōng ． jiē shì jí jiāng yǔn luò ， yǔ sǐ rén hái yǒu shén me hǎo luó suo ． lín xuān zhǔn bèi sān xià wǔ chú èr jiù jiāng dí rén miè chú 。
心中这样想着．林轩右手抬起，反正这些家伙在他的眼中．皆是即将陨落，与死人还有什么好罗嗦．林轩准备三下五除二就将敌人灭除。
Lin Xuan’s thoughts raced, quickly dismissing that notion.
wū 。。。
呜。。。
The world is vast and full of wonders; similar appearances aren’t uncommon. But the match between their auras made it seem too coincidental.
lìng rén zhàn lì de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， shà shí jiān ， tiān dì wèi zhī biàn sè ． rán ér jiù zài cǐ kè 、 tā què dèng dà le yǎn zhū ， liǎn shàng fú xiàn chū bù néng zhì xìn zhī sè 。
令人战栗的声音传入耳朵，霎时间，天地为之变色．然而就在此刻、他却瞪大了眼珠，脸上浮现出不能置信之色。
Firstly, he had faced Red Ling before, familiar with her power fluctuations. He was confident in his recognition.
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
This wasn’t by chance. The woman before him was undoubtedly the arrogant Red Ling Immortal.
suī bù xiǎng yǔ jiāng sǐ zhī rén luó suo ， dàn lín xuān mù guāng hái shì zài jǐ míng yuán yīng qī xiū shì de liǎn shàng sǎo guò ． kě zhè yī kàn què kàn chū wèn tí lái le ． lìng tā dà jīng shī sè 。
虽不想与将死之人罗嗦，但林轩目光还是在几名元婴期修士的脸上扫过．可这一看却看出问题来了．令他大惊失色。
As for why she was here, it wasn’t hard to explain. From Ye Pin’er’s account, Lin Xuan knew about the disaster on Jia Ling Island.
qí yú sì rén dào méi shén me ， kě wéi dú zhōng jiān nà míng nǚ zǐ ， yī shēn fēng wèi què fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， zhèng shì yuán yīng hòu qī de xiū xiān zhě 。
其余四人倒没什么，可唯独中间那名女子，一身锋为却非同小可，正是元婴后期的修仙者。
The spatial storm had destroyed the entire island, but at critical moments, vortexes appeared in the sky. Although perilous, there were still chances of survival.
dāng rán ， lìng lín xuān jīng è de bú shì tā de shí lì 。
当然，令林轩惊愕的不是她的实力。
Ye Pin’er made that choice, arriving in Jianyun Continent.
qū qū yuán yīng hòu qī ． suī bù néng shuō shì lóu yǐ ， dàn miè shā yě qīng sōng yǐ jí 。
区区元婴后期．虽不能说是蝼蚁，但灭杀也轻松以极。
Red Ling’s cultivation was far superior, making her descent unremarkable. The only thing Lin Xuan couldn’t understand was why she would be with Luo Family cultivators and seemed to have become their senior elder.
lín xuān zhī suǒ yǐ dèng dà le yǎn zhū ． shì yīn wèi cǐ nǚ de róng mào shí zài …… zěn me shuō ne ， yǎn shú 。
林轩之所以瞪大了眼珠．是因为此女的容貌实在……怎么说呢，眼熟。
This puzzled him greatly.
zhū yù wèi chún ， shuǐ zuò fū ， cǐ nǚ kān chēng rén jiān jué sè ． kàn nián líng yě bù guò èr shí chū tóu ．
珠玉为唇，水做肤，此女堪称人间绝色．看年龄也不过二十出头．
But soon, he chuckled. Why think so much about it? He had been a mere late-stage Immortal when they met; he couldn’t even resist her. Back then, he could only retreat and hide from her relentless pursuit.
xiǎn rán shì xiū liàn yǒu zhù yán shén tōng ． ér qiě shì pǒ wèi dǐng jiān de nà zhǒng 。
显然是修炼有驻颜神通．而且是颇为顶尖的那种。
Now, having advanced to the Separation stage, Red Ling was no longer his match. A late-stage Immortal wasn’t something he would take seriously.
rán ér yǔ pǔ tōng de měi rén bù tóng ． cǐ nǚ méi mù rú huà ， kě shén sè jiān ． què zì dài yǒu yī gǔ shā fá ． tā xiū liàn de nǎi shì zhèng dào gōng fǎ ， kě hún shēn de lì qì què bù bìng bǐ nà xiē mó dào de jù xiāo xùn sè 。
然而与普通的美人不同．此女眉目如画，可神色间．却自带有一股杀伐．她修炼的乃是正道功法，可浑身的戾气却不并比那些魔道的巨枭逊色。
As the saying goes: "Better to offend an old man than a young one." The humiliation she had inflicted on him could now be repaid with interest.
bié yàng de qì zhì ， zuì néng xī yǐn yǎn qiú 、 kě nà lín xuān de tóng kǒng què wēi wēi shōu suō ． shēng yīn dōu xiǎn de yǒu xiē gān sè 。
别样的气质，最能吸引眼球、可那林轩的瞳孔却微微收缩．声音都显得有些干涩。
With this thought, Lin Xuan’s face lit up with excitement and a sinister smile. In the cultivation world, there was no such thing as forgiveness; it was about seeking revenge for grievances.
“ hóng …… hóng líng xiān zi 。．
“红……红陵仙子。．
The Luo Family cultivators initially planned to overwhelm their opponents quickly but found that their original strategy was too naive.
zhèng shì yù xuán zōng nà wèi nǚ gǔ xiū ， ruò bú shì cǐ nǚ ． zì jǐ yě bú huì yǒu yāo líng dǎo de jīng lì ． lín xuān duì tā ， yìn xiàng zì shì shēn kè yǐ jí 。
正是玉玄宗那位女古修，若不是此女．自己也不会有妖灵岛的经历．林轩对她，印象自是深刻以极。
Indeed, there was only one enemy.
zì xìn bú huì rèn cuò ， dàn cǐ nǚ chū xiàn zài zhè lǐ wèi miǎn tài bù kě sī yì 。
自信不会认错，但此女出现在这里未免太不可思议。
But this enemy was beyond imagination.
nán dào shuō shì róng mào xiàng shì zhī rén me ？
难道说是容貌相似之人么？
Though he hadn’t moved or fully released his pressure, the lower-stage cultivators felt Lin Xuan’s profound depth. However, several late-stage Immortal experts were pale with fear, their backs drenched in cold sweat and unable to move.
lín xuān nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ． dàn hěn kuài jiù jiāng zhè yī tiáo fǒu le 。
林轩脑海中念头转过．但很快就将这一条否了。
If they hadn’t misjudged, the opponent...
tiān xià zhī dà 、 wú qí bù yǒu ． róng mào xiàng shì ， bìng bù xī qí ． dàn yě bù guò shì xíng sì ér yǐ ． lián qì zhì yě rú cǐ wěn hé ． wèi miǎn ràng rén gǎn jué yǒu xiē bù kě sī yì 。
天下之大、无奇不有．容貌相似，并不稀奇．但也不过是形似而已．连气质也如此吻合．未免让人感觉有些不可思议。
The opponent was a Separation stage cultivator.
cǐ qí yī 。
此其一。
How could this be? Separation stage cultivators were already the pinnacle of human existence; why would they come to this remote region?
qí èr ， lín xuān yǔ hóng líng jiāo guò shǒu ． duì tā shēn shàng de fǎ lì bō dòng fēi cháng shú ， zì xìn zhè yì diǎn hái shì bú huì rèn cuò 。
其二，林轩与红陵交过手．对她身上的法力波动非常熟，自信这一点还是不会认错。
Was it because of a conflict with Bai Xuan Pavilion that their identities had been exposed, drawing the attention of major powers in Jianyun Continent?
bìng fēi jī yuán qiǎo hé ， yǎn qián zhī nǚ ． jué duì shì nà wèi xiāo zhāng bá hù de hóng líng xiān zi 。
并非机缘巧合，眼前之女．绝对是那位嚣张跋扈的红陵仙子。
But that was impossible. A hundred years had passed since the events in Xuan City, and everything had faded into history.
zhì yú tā wèi hé lái dào cǐ chù ， zǐ xì xiǎng xiǎng ， qí shí méi yǒu shén me bù kě jiě shì de 。
至于她为何来到此处，仔细想想，其实没有什么不可解释的。
Even if their identity was revealed, sending several late-stage Immortals would suffice; it couldn’t possibly attract a Separation stage cultivator’s attention—such beings rarely got involved in trivial matters.
cóng yè píng ér de kǒu zhōng ． lín xuān yǐ jīng zhī dào yāo líng dǎo fā shēng de zāi huò 。
从叶瓶儿的口中．林轩已经知道妖灵岛发生的灾祸。
Their minds were filled with shock and disbelief. They didn't even consider the possibility of a conflict with Bai Xuan Pavilion.
kōng jiān fēng bào huǐ qù le zhěng gè yāo líng dǎo 、 hǎo zài wēi jī shí kè ． tiān kōng zhōng què chū xiàn le xǔ duō xuán wō 。
空间风暴毁去了整个妖灵岛、好在危机时刻．天空中却出现了许多漩涡。
After all, while Bai Xuan Pavilion was the dominant force in Youzhou, its influence in Jianyun Continent was negligible; it had no late-stage Immortal cultivators, let alone a Separation stage one.
suī rán wēi jī sì fú ， dàn jìn rù lǐ miàn wèi shǐ méi yǒu shēng cún xià qù xī wàng de 。
虽然危机四伏，但进入里面未始没有生存下去希望的。
But now, such thoughts were meaningless. The enemy was their foe.
yè píng ér zuò chū nà yàng de xuǎn zé ， lái jiàn le yún zhōu dà lù ．
叶瓶儿做出那样的选择，来剑了云州大陆．
Thinking about facing a legendary Separation stage cultivator, several old experts felt dread and lost all hope of victory.
hóng líng xiān zi xiū wèi bǐ tā gāo dé duō 。 néng huà xià lái gèng méi yǒu sī háo xī qí zhī chù 。
红绫仙子修为比她高得多。能话下来更没有丝毫稀奇之处。
"Senior Elder..."
wéi yī ràng lín xuān bù jiě de shì ， cǐ nǚ zěn me huì yǔ luó jiā xiū shì hùn zài yì qǐ ， kàn yàng zi ， gèng fǎng fú chéng le tā men de dà zhǎng lǎo 。
唯一让林轩不解的是，此女怎么会与罗家修士混在一起，看样子，更仿佛成了他们的大长老。
A yellow-robed elder’s voice rasped out.
zhè zhe shí ràng rén bù jiě 。
这着实让人不解。
If they met an ordinary formidable opponent, at least they could try to escape. But a Separation stage cultivator...
bù guò hěn kuài ． lín xuān jiù yǎ rán shī xiào ， zì yǐ xiǎng nà me duō gàn shén me 。
不过很快．林轩就哑然失笑，自已想那么多干什么。
They had no intention of fleeing; such actions would only provoke the enemy further, leading to quicker death.
xī rì zì jǐ zhǐ shì xiǎo xiǎo de níng dān qī xiū xiān zhě shū shū wǎng shǒu dǎ 、 yù jiàn hóng líng suī bú shì sī háo fǎn kàng zhī lì yě wú ， dàn píng xīn lái shuō ． què shí dǎ cǐ nǚ bù guò ． suǒ yǐ zhǐ néng tuì bì sān shè ． bèi tā zhuī dé dōng duǒ xī cáng de 。
昔日自己只是小小的凝丹期修仙者书书网手打、遇见红陵虽不是丝毫反抗之力也无，但平心来说．确实打此女不过．所以只能退避三舍．被她追得东躲西藏的。
What should they do?
rán ér shì yì shí yí ， rú jīn zì jǐ yǐ jìn jiē lí hé ． hóng líng suī rán méi yǒu yuán dì tà bù ， dàn qū qū yuán yīng hòu qī de dà xiū xiān zhě ． míng xiǎn bù fàng zài zì jǐ yǎn zhōng 。
然而事易时移，如今自己已进阶离合．红陵虽然没有原地踏步，但区区元婴后期的大修仙者．明显不放在自己眼中。
All they hoped for was that Senior Elder would have a way out. Otherwise, this time, the Luo Family might face total annihilation.
sú huà shuō ． níng qī lǎo ． mò qī shǎo ， xī rì tā dài gěi zì jǐ de qū rǔ ， xiàn zài zhèng hǎo lián běn dài lì de bào yī bào 。
俗话说．宁欺老．莫欺少，昔日她带给自己的屈辱，现在正好连本带利的报一报。
To their surprise, Senior Elder’s reaction was even more dramatic than theirs.
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ ， lín xuān liǎn shàng liú lù chū xīng fèn zhī sè ， xiào róng yě biàn dé yīn hán qǐ lái le ， zài xiū xiān jiè ， kě méi yǒu yǐ dé bào yuàn yī shuō 、 zhè lǐ liú xíng de shì yǒu yuān bào yuān ． yǒu chóu bào chóu zài shuō lìng yī cè 。
想到这里，林轩脸上流露出兴奋之色，笑容也变得阴寒起来了，在修仙界，可没有以德报怨一说、这里流行的是有冤报冤．有仇报仇在说另一侧。
She covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes full of disbelief as she trembled uncontrollably.
luó jiā xiū shì yuán běn xiǎng yǐ duō wèi shèng ， sān xià wǔ chú èr de jiāng rù qīn de wài dí gěi miè chú ．
罗家修士原本想以多为胜，三下五除二的将入侵的外敌给灭除．
Was it fear?
kě fēi jìn yǐ hòu ， cái fā xiàn zì jǐ yuán xiān de xiǎng fǎ shí zài shì tài tiān zhēn le 。
可飞进以后，才发现自己原先的想法实在是太天真了。
But such reactions seemed too exaggerated for a late-stage Immortal.
bù cuò 、 dí rén zhǐ yǒu yí gè 。
不错、敌人只有一个。
At least, she had the advantage in terms of escape opportunities compared to them.
rán ér què qiáng dà dào bù kě xiǎng xiàng de dì bù 。
然而却强大到不可想象的地步。
No one could fathom Red Ling’s emotions at that moment.
suī rán méi yǒu dòng shǒu ． wēi yā yě méi yǒu wán quán shì fàng chū ． kě sú huà shuō ． yóu yì diǎn kě kuī mào 、 dī jiē xiū shì hái hǎo ， zhǐ shì jué de lín xuān shēn bù kě cè ． jù tǐ jiǎo jiè rú hé ， què gǎn shòu bù qīng chǔ 。
虽然没有动手．威压也没有完全释放出．可俗话说．由一点可窥貌、低阶修士还好，只是觉得林轩深不可测．具体搅界如何，却感受不清楚。
While extraordinary events happened frequently in the cultivation world, this scene was beyond comprehension.
rán ér jǐ míng yuán yīng lǎo guài wù ． zé yí gè èr gè liǎn sè cāng bái dào jí chù 。
然而几名元婴老怪物．则一个二个脸色苍白到极处。
Red Ling almost doubted her own eyes.
bèi shàng lěng hàn zhí liú ． liǎng tuǐ yě ruǎn dé mài bù kāi bù ， rú guǒ méi yǒu kàn cuò ． duì fāng …
背上冷汗直流．两腿也软得迈不开步，如果没有看错．对方…
How could it be possible!
duì fāng shì lí hé qī de xiū xiān zhě 。
对方是离合期的修仙者。
The cultivator before her looked ordinary, but she knew him well. If not for that hateful brat, she wouldn’t have been sucked into a spatial rift and ended up on Jia Ling Island, enduring countless hardships.
zhè zěn me kě néng ne ， lí hé xiū shì ， yǐ jīng shì rén jiè zhì gāo de cún zài le ， zěn me huì lái yōu zhōu zhè mán huāng zhī suǒ 。
这怎么可能呢，离合修士，已经是人界至高的存在了，怎么会来幽州这蛮荒之所。
Counting the years, over two hundred had passed.
nán dào shì tā men yǔ bài xuān gé chōng tū ． zuì zhōng shēn fèn bào lù ． yǐn lái yún zhōu gè dà shì lì de gàn shǎo 。
难道是他们与拜轩阁冲突．最终身份暴露．引来云州各大势力的干少。
If not for this chance encounter, she would never have returned to the human world.
dàn yě bù kě néng a ， qiě bù shuō xuān yuán chéng shòu biàn ， yǐ jīng guò qù le bǎi nián chén guī chén ， tǔ guī tǔ ， wǎng shì zǎo yǐ huà zuò yún yān 。
但也不可能啊，且不说轩辕城寿变，已经过去了百年尘归尘，土归土，往事早已化作云烟。
In these two centuries, she had become a late-stage Immortal.
jiù suàn zhēn de shēn fèn bào lù ， duì fāng pài jǐ míng yuán yīng zhǎng zǒu dài jīng ruì lái yě jiù xíng le ． wú lùn rú hé 、 yě bù kě néng jīng dòng lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ． nà zhǒng děng jí de cún zài ， qīng yì shì bú huì guò wèn shì shì de 。
就算真的身份暴露，对方派几名元婴长走带精锐来也就行了．无论如何、也不可能惊动离合期修仙者．那种等级的存在，轻易是不会过问世事的。
With effort, there might still be a chance of reaching Separation stage someday.
xīn zhōng yòu shì jīng yí ， yòu shì chà yì ， yī shí piàn kè ， jǐ rén dǎo shì wán quán méi yǒu wǎng bài xuān gé shēn shàng qù xiǎng de 。
心中又是惊疑，又是诧异，一时片刻，几人倒是完全没有往拜轩阁身上去想的。
But even if that happened, it was uncertain when.

毕竟拜轩阁虽是幽州霸主．但放到云州，却不值一捉．连元婴期修仙者都没有，又怎么可能与传说中的离合修士扯上关系呢但现在追究这些已没有意义。
It could take another few hundred years.

对方非友是敌。
Yet, while he succeeded before her, this brat had already reached the Separation stage.

一想到要面对传说中的漓合、几名老怪物心中就直打鼓、丝毫战意也无。
This was impossible!

都说天无绝人之路，可这一次，真的是老天也要灭亡我罗家么？
Two centuries ago, he was just a late-stage Immortal.
“ dà zhǎng lǎo ……”
“大长老……”
Though his abilities were far beyond those of his peers, Red Ling couldn’t believe that in two centuries, one could advance from late-stage to Separation stage.
Looking at the vast, undulating mountains before him, Lin Xuan couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. Previously, Yuan Yuan had been the ruler of this very place. The scene of meeting his beloved wife was still vivid in his mind.
Lin Xuan's eyes softened with tenderness, only to be quickly replaced by a fierce expression.
Yuan Yuan was still deep in her cultivation at the Five-Colored Spirit Mountain. It wasn't the time for personal matters now.
This was the Luo Family’s secret headquarters. Most of their powerful experts should be gathered here, including that late-stage Immortal婴后期 cultivator.
But it didn’t matter. Having advanced to the Separation stage, even if his enemies were numerous, they would only be like moths drawn to a flame.
Lin Xuan was not one for dragging things out. Once he acted, he intended to eliminate the Luo Family's threat with lightning speed.
A look of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes as he subtly moved and entered the Qui Yin Mountain range.
As a cultivator, this mountain range held no secrets for him. He saw these figures as mere targets on the verge of death—what was there to discuss with corpses?
With a flick of his right hand, Lin Xuan prepared to swiftly end the lives of his enemies.
"Whoosh..."
A chilling sound echoed in his ears, causing the world around him to tremble. But at that moment, Lin Xuan's eyes widened as disbelief crossed his face.
"What...?"
Though he didn’t want to waste time with dying opponents, his gaze swept over the faces of several late-stage Immortal cultivators. He quickly noticed something alarming.
The other four seemed unremarkable, but one woman in particular stood out. Her attire was formidable and she was clearly a late-stage Immortal.
Lin Xuan’s shock wasn’t due to her strength; an ordinary late-stage Immortal posed no challenge.
What caught his attention was the woman's appearance—familiar yet strikingly beautiful. Her lips were like pearls, her skin as smooth as water. She was undoubtedly a vision of beauty, barely in her twenties.
She must have cultivated longevity techniques, and they were quite advanced. Unlike ordinary beauties, she had an aura that exuded a sense of ruthlessness. Despite practicing orthodox cultivation methods, the malevolent energy around her rivaled those from the demonic sects.
Her unique presence drew attention, but Lin Xuan’s pupils constricted, his voice dry as he spoke:
"Red... Red Ling Immortal..."
It was none other than the female ancient cultivator from Yu Xuan Sect. If not for this woman, he wouldn’t have had the experience with Jia Ling Island. His impression of her was profound.
He was confident in his recognition but found it hard to believe she would be here.
Was it a case of mistaken identity?
Lin Xuan’s thoughts raced, quickly dismissing that notion.
The world is vast and full of wonders; similar appearances aren’t uncommon. But the match between their auras made it seem too coincidental.
Firstly, he had faced Red Ling before, familiar with her power fluctuations. He was confident in his recognition.
This wasn’t by chance. The woman before him was undoubtedly the arrogant Red Ling Immortal.
As for why she was here, it wasn’t hard to explain. From Ye Pin’er’s account, Lin Xuan knew about the disaster on Jia Ling Island.
The spatial storm had destroyed the entire island, but at critical moments, vortexes appeared in the sky. Although perilous, there were still chances of survival.
Ye Pin’er made that choice, arriving in Jianyun Continent.
Red Ling’s cultivation was far superior, making her descent unremarkable. The only thing Lin Xuan couldn’t understand was why she would be with Luo Family cultivators and seemed to have become their senior elder.
This puzzled him greatly.
But soon, he chuckled. Why think so much about it? He had been a mere late-stage Immortal when they met; he couldn’t even resist her. Back then, he could only retreat and hide from her relentless pursuit.
Now, having advanced to the Separation stage, Red Ling was no longer his match. A late-stage Immortal wasn’t something he would take seriously.
As the saying goes: "Better to offend an old man than a young one." The humiliation she had inflicted on him could now be repaid with interest.
With this thought, Lin Xuan’s face lit up with excitement and a sinister smile. In the cultivation world, there was no such thing as forgiveness; it was about seeking revenge for grievances.
The Luo Family cultivators initially planned to overwhelm their opponents quickly but found that their original strategy was too naive.
Indeed, there was only one enemy.
But this enemy was beyond imagination.
Though he hadn’t moved or fully released his pressure, the lower-stage cultivators felt Lin Xuan’s profound depth. However, several late-stage Immortal experts were pale with fear, their backs drenched in cold sweat and unable to move.
If they hadn’t misjudged, the opponent...
The opponent was a Separation stage cultivator.
How could this be? Separation stage cultivators were already the pinnacle of human existence; why would they come to this remote region?
Was it because of a conflict with Bai Xuan Pavilion that their identities had been exposed, drawing the attention of major powers in Jianyun Continent?
But that was impossible. A hundred years had passed since the events in Xuan City, and everything had faded into history.
Even if their identity was revealed, sending several late-stage Immortals would suffice; it couldn’t possibly attract a Separation stage cultivator’s attention—such beings rarely got involved in trivial matters.
Their minds were filled with shock and disbelief. They didn't even consider the possibility of a conflict with Bai Xuan Pavilion.
After all, while Bai Xuan Pavilion was the dominant force in Youzhou, its influence in Jianyun Continent was negligible; it had no late-stage Immortal cultivators, let alone a Separation stage one.
But now, such thoughts were meaningless. The enemy was their foe.
Thinking about facing a legendary Separation stage cultivator, several old experts felt dread and lost all hope of victory.
"Senior Elder..."
A yellow-robed elder’s voice rasped out.
If they met an ordinary formidable opponent, at least they could try to escape. But a Separation stage cultivator...
They had no intention of fleeing; such actions would only provoke the enemy further, leading to quicker death.
What should they do?
All they hoped for was that Senior Elder would have a way out. Otherwise, this time, the Luo Family might face total annihilation.
To their surprise, Senior Elder’s reaction was even more dramatic than theirs.
She covered her mouth with her hands, her eyes full of disbelief as she trembled uncontrollably.
Was it fear?
But such reactions seemed too exaggerated for a late-stage Immortal.
At least, she had the advantage in terms of escape opportunities compared to them.
No one could fathom Red Ling’s emotions at that moment.
While extraordinary events happened frequently in the cultivation world, this scene was beyond comprehension.
Red Ling almost doubted her own eyes.
How could it be possible!
The cultivator before her looked ordinary, but she knew him well. If not for that hateful brat, she wouldn’t have been sucked into a spatial rift and ended up on Jia Ling Island, enduring countless hardships.
Counting the years, over two hundred had passed.
If not for this chance encounter, she would never have returned to the human world.
In these two centuries, she had become a late-stage Immortal.
With effort, there might still be a chance of reaching Separation stage someday.
But even if that happened, it was uncertain when.
It could take another few hundred years.
Yet, while he succeeded before her, this brat had already reached the Separation stage.
This was impossible!
Two centuries ago, he was just a late-stage Immortal.
Though his abilities were far beyond those of his peers, Red Ling couldn’t believe that in two centuries, one could advance from late-stage to Separation stage.
