“ qǐ zhǐ shì bù róng yì ？”
“岂止是不容易？”
"Is it just not easy?"
lín xuān yáo le yáo tóu ， liǎn shàng lù chū jǐ fēn kǔ xiào zhī sè ， zì jǐ de shén tōng ， zì jǐ qīng chǔ ， rú guǒ huàn yī míng lí hé qī xiū xiān zhě ， kǒng pà zǎo jiù bèi zhè yāo qín tūn mò 。
林轩摇了摇头，脸上露出几分苦笑之色，自己的神通，自己清楚，如果换一名离合期修仙者，恐怕早就被这妖禽吞没。
Lin Xuan shook his head, a bitter smile playing on his face. He knew his own abilities well; if another Separation and Union stage cultivator were here, this demonic bird would have long been devoured.
jí biàn shì tā ， yě tóng yàng bèi zhuī dé láng bèi yǐ jí ， hǎo zài xiàn zài yǐ jīng yǒu le tuō shēn de zhǔ yì 。
即便是他，也同样被追得狼狈以极，好在现在已经有了脱身的主意。
Even for him, the chase was extremely difficult, but he now had an idea to escape. "No need to say it, I know in my heart."
“ chēng bú yòng shuō ， lín mǒu xīn zhōng yǒu shù 。”
“称不用说，林某心中有数。”
Having used Soul Searching Technique, Lin Xuan naturally knew where Wanyou Island was. For cultivators, harming others while benefiting oneself was perfectly normal, especially since they were at odds with each other. With no reason for politeness, he decided to use the strategy of diverting the floodwaters.
yòng guò sōu hún zhī shù ， wàn shòu dǎo de wèi zhì ， lín xuān zì rán qīng chǔ ， sǔn rén lì jǐ duì xiū xiān zhě lái shuō ， nà shì zài zhèng cháng bù guò ， hé kuàng shuāng fāng hái shì dí duì guān xì ， jì rán rú cǐ ， nà hái yǒu shén me hào kè qì ， zì rán shì shī yǐ nà huò shuǐ dōng yǐn zhī jì 。
用过搜魂之术，万兽岛的位置，林轩自然清楚，损人利己对修仙者来说，那是再正常不过，何况双方还是敌对关系，既然如此，那还有什么好客气，自然是施以那祸水东引之计。
"Your misfortune is well-deserved."
wàn shòu lǎo ér ， huó gāi nǐ dǎo méi 。
万兽老儿，活该你倒霉。
Lin Xuan's lips curled into a cold smile as he turned and led the fierce demonic bird towards its nest.
lín xuān zuǐ jiǎo biān guà zhe yīn lěng de xiào yì ， fāng xiàng yī zhuǎn ， yǐn zhe nà xiōng lì de mó niǎo ， fēi xiàng le duì fāng de lǎo cháo 。
林轩嘴角边挂着阴冷的笑意，方向一转，引着那凶厉的魔鸟，飞向了对方的老巢。
Meanwhile, on Wanyou Island, Baihu City was larger than Hongye Island. The city was grander and more imposing, though there were fewer cultivators here. This was because Wanyou Venerable's character was extremely cruel, so few people wanted to do business with him. However, there were many evil cultivators, who sought refuge from their crimes.
yǔ cǐ tóng shí ， wàn shòu dǎo 。
与此同时，万兽岛。
Wanyou Venerable accepted all comers, gradually strengthening his power. Of course, these evil cultivators could not commit crimes around the island; Wanyou Venerable understood that rabbits did not eat grass beside their burrows.
bái hǔ chéng 。
白虎城。
As they say, without rules, there is no order. Even though Wanyou Island was a mix of good and bad, it still had laws, albeit more severe ones.
yǔ hóng yè dǎo xiāng bǐ ， cǐ dǎo de miàn jī hái yào shāo dà yī xiē ， xiān chéng de xiū zhù ， yě yuè fā de gāo dà wēi é ， bù guò xiū shì de shù liàng què méi yǒu nà me duō 。
与红叶岛相比，此岛的面积还要稍大一些，仙城的修筑，也越发的高大巍峨，不过修士的数量却没有那么多。
Violating them could result in severe beatings or even soul extraction. There were dedicated law enforcers in the city to maintain order.
wú tā ， wàn shòu zūn zhě xìng gé bào nüè yǐ jí ， zì rán méi yǒu rén nà me duō rén yuàn yì lái zhè lǐ zuò shēng yì 。
无他，万兽尊者性格暴虐以极，自然没有人那么多人愿意来这里做生意。
Despite this, Baihu City, while not as bustling as Linhai City, still housed thousands of cultivators.
bù guò xié xiū shù liàng què shì jí duō ， bù shǎo è guàn mǎn yíng de xiū xiān zhě ， dōu xǐ huān lái zhè lǐ xún qiú bì hù 。
不过邪修数量却是极多，不少恶贯满盈的修仙者，都喜欢来这里寻求庇护。
However, not everyone followed the rules. For instance, Wan Menghao disregarded all norms since his father was Wanyou Venerable. Moreover, he was one of his favorite sons.
ér wàn shòu zūn zhě yě shì lái zhě bù jù ， yí bù bù zhuàng dà le tā xiá xià de shí lì 。
而万兽尊者也是来者不拒，一步步壮大了他辖下的实力。
"Can my father's laws punish me?"
dāng rán ， zhè xiē xié xiū bù néng zài wàn shòu dǎo zhōu biān zuò è ， tù zi bù chī wō biān cǎo de dào lǐ ， wàn shòu zūn zhě hái shì dǒng 。
当然，这些邪修不能在万兽岛周边作恶，兔子不吃窝边草的道理，万兽尊者还是懂。
Despite this, Wan Menghao had no other vices; he just liked to be a ladies' man and forcibly take beautiful women.
sú huà shuō ， méi yǒu guī jǔ ， bù chéng fāng yuán ， wàn shòu dǎo suī rán lóng shé hùn zá ， què yī yàng yǒu fǎ lìng cún zài 。
俗话说，没有规矩，不成方圆，万兽岛虽然龙蛇混杂，却一样有法令存在。
He had dozens of concubines and maids, constantly seeking out the most beautiful women in the world. Whether they were ordinary people or cultivators did not matter as long as they were beautiful.
ér qiě gèng jiā yán kù 。
而且更加严酷。
It was because of his promiscuous nature that he had caused such an incident on Hongye Island last time—trying to snatch Dongfang Mingyu but ending up beaten by Lin Xuan, leaving him with a pig's head. Fortunately for him, being a fool brought good fortune; Lin Xuan, known for his ruthless nature, merely beat him into a pig's head.
yí dàn wéi fǎn le ， qīng zé bào dǎ ， zhòng zé chōu hún liàn pò 。
一旦违反了，轻则暴打，重则抽魂炼魄。
Wan Menghao returned home and complained to his father, who, despite his own indiscretions, could not publicly allow his son to forcibly take a woman in broad daylight. It would be too scandalous if he lost face or risked expansion plans.
chéng zhōng shì yǒu zhuān mén de zhí fǎ xiū shì de 。
城中是有专门的执法修士的。
Compared to his incompetent son, Wanyou Venerable understood the benefits of keeping him in line.
suǒ yǐ zhì shǎo cóng biǎo miàn shàng kàn ， wàn shòu dǎo yī yàng zhì xù jǐng rán 。
所以至少从表面上看，万兽岛一样秩序井然。
Seeing that his father was unhelpful, Wan Menghao could only rest at home and recover from his injuries. Over these few months, he had managed to cultivate himself. However, as they say, a dog cannot change its ways; soon after recovering, his heart began to stir again.
bái hǔ chéng suī rán bù jí lín hǎi chéng fán huá ， dàn jū zhù de xiū shì yī yàng chéng qiān shàng wàn 。
白虎城虽然不及临海城繁华，但居住的修士一样成千上万。
Especially today, when his father left the island with some trusted subordinates, ostensibly related to Hongye Fairy. The thought of her made Wan Menghao's heart itch, but he dared not forcibly take her since she was his father's choice.
bù guò yě bú shì suǒ yǒu rén dōu zūn xún fǎ zé ， bǐ rú shuō wàn mèng háo jiù shì suǒ yǒu de guī jǔ wèi wú wù bì jìng tā lǎo diē jiù shì wàn shòu zūn zhě 。
不过也不是所有人都遵循法则，比如说万孟豪就视所有的规矩为无物毕竟他老爹就是万兽尊者。
In truth, both father and son were no good; they were a pair of rogues.
ér qiě tā yòu shì zhū duō ér zi zhōng zuì dé chǒng de yí gè 。
而且他又是诸多儿子中最得宠的一个。
With his father gone and several key subordinates accompanying him, only a few cultivators remained on the island. Who would dare challenge this young lord?
lǎo diē zhì dìng de fǎ zé ， nán dào hái néng chéng fá dào zì jǐ tóu shàng me ？
老爹制定的法则，难道还能惩罚到自己头上么？
Thus, Wan Menghao drove his beast carriage into the city, hoping to find some beautiful women to take.
bù guò píng xīn lái shuō zhè jiā huo dào yě méi yǒu qí tā de è xí ， jiù shì tān huā hào sè ， xǐ huān qiáng qiǎng měi nǚ 。
不过平心来说这家伙倒也没有其他的恶习，就是贪huā好色，喜欢强抢美女。
The sky was clear and blue, like a fine jade. After using his father's miraculous elixirs, Wan Menghao looked handsome in his fan, sitting on his beast carriage. However, he was just a flower pillow stuffed with hay.
tā de jī qiè bì nǚ ， zú yǒu shàng bǎi zhī duō ， piān piān hái rén xīn bù zú dào chù shōu luó shì jiān de jué sè 。
他的姬妾婢女，足有上百之多，偏偏还人心不足到处收罗世间的绝色。
He did not come here for the scenery but to look around for beautiful women.
bù guǎn fán rén hái shì xiū xiān zhě dōu bù zài hū ， zhǐ yào shì měi nǚ jiù xíng le 。
不管凡人还是修仙者都不在乎，只要是美女就行了。
Suddenly, Wan Menghao's eyes lit up as he spotted an oddly dressed woman. Her appearance was merely passable, but her voluptuous figure was unforgettable. Moreover, she wore very revealing clothes, making her easy prey for evil cultivators like him.
zhèng yīn wèi tā fēng liú chéng xìng de xìng zi ， shàng cì zài hóng yè dǎo cái gàn chū nà me lí pǔ de shì 。
正因为他风流成性的性子，上次在红叶岛才干出那么离谱的事。
Wan Menghao was overjoyed and immediately commanded his beast carriage to approach. She was only at the Condensation Core stage, and this was on his father's territory; there would be no repeat of last time.
xiǎng yào qiǎng dōng fāng míng yù ， què pèng shàng lín xuān zhè dà dīng zi ， bèi dǎ chéng zhū tóu 。
想要抢东方明玉，却碰上林轩这大钉子，被打成猪头。
As he thought these thoughts, Wan Menghao, a typical case of healed wounds forgetting pain, suddenly noticed a bright streak of light approaching from afar. It quickly closed the gap and came to his side at an incredible speed.
hǎo zài shǎ rén yǒu shǎ fú ， miàn duì tā zhè zhòng cǎo bāo bān de wán kù zǐ dì ， yǐ lín xuān hěn là de xìng zi ， yě xīng bù qǐ shén me shā yì zhǐ bǎ tā suí biàn dǎ chéng zhū tóu liǎo shì 。
好在傻人有傻福，面对他这种草包般的纨绔子弟，以林轩狠辣的性子，也兴不起什么杀意只把他随便打成猪头了事。
Lin Xuan had already seen this woman clearly. His face lit up with joy. Heaven was treating him well.
zhè jiā huo huí qù yǐ hòu ， zì rán shì zhǎo lǎo diē kū sù ， hǎo zài wàn shòu zūn zhě suī rán shàng liáng bù zhèng xià liáng wāi ， tóng yàng yī dǔ zi de nán dào nǚ chāng ， kě zuò wéi yī dǎo zhī zhǔ ， biǎo miàn shàng de wén zhāng hái shì yào mǒ guò ， ér zi dà tíng guǎng zhòng qiáng qiǎng mín nǚ wèi miǎn tài lí pǔ 。
这家伙回去以后，自然是找老爹哭诉，好在万兽尊者虽然上粱不正下粱歪，同样一肚子的男盗女娼，可作为一岛之主，表面上的文章还是要抹过，儿子大庭广众强抢民女未免太离谱。
With enough time before reaching her, Lin Xuan slowed down. "Hey... You?"
qiǎng le yuán běn yě jiù qiǎng le ， piān piān hái dǎ bù guò bèi bié rén gěi chū shǒu jiào xùn le ， zhè zhǒng chǎng zi ， jiù suàn shì wàn shòu zūn zhě ， yě wàn wàn méi yǒu liǎn huí qù zhǎo de 。
抢了原本也就抢了，偏偏还打不过被别人给出手教训了，这种场子，就算是万兽尊者，也万万没有脸回去找的。
The young lord, eager to approach and forcibly take a beautiful woman, froze when he saw his enemy. He almost thought he was hallucinating. Lin Xuan smiled widely at him.
fǒu zé zǎo shā le dǎ ér zi de xiū shì yòu rú hé ， zì jǐ hái bú shì lún wèi quán dōng hǎi de xiào bǐng ， hái tán shén me kuò zhāng ， tán shén me yě xīn bó bó zhè yàng de shǎ shì tā zì rán bú huì qù zuò 。
否则枣杀了打儿子的修士又如何，自己还不是沦为全东海的笑柄，还谈什么扩张，谈什么野心勃勃这样的傻事他自然不会去做。
"Oaf, long time no see."
bǐ qǐ nà bù chéng qì de ér zi ， wàn shòu zūn zhě zì rán míng bái qí zhōng de lì bì 。
比起那不成器的儿子，万兽尊者自然明白其中的利弊。
As he spoke, he raised his right hand and slapped Wan Menghao across the face with all his strength. No magical power was used, but the force was immense. With Wan Menghao's strength, he could not dodge; one cheek immediately turned red and swollen.
jiàn lǎo diē bù bāng máng ， wàn mèng háo yě wú fǎ kě xiǎng ， zhǐ hǎo zài jiā lǐ yǎng shāng 。
见老爹不帮忙，万孟豪也无法可想，只好在家里养伤。
The burning pain was intense.
zhè shù yuè yǐ lái ， dào yě suàn xiū shēn yǎng xìng kě xī sú huà shuō ， zhè gǒu shì gǎi bù liǎo chī shǐ de ， zhè bù shāng gāng gāng yī hǎo ， zhè xīn yòu kāi shǐ bù ān fèn 。
这数月以来，倒也算修身养性可惜俗话说，这狗是改不了吃屎的，这不伤刚刚一好，这心又开始不安分。
Wan Menghao was shocked, angry, and anxious, but fear was more prominent in his eyes. Last time in Linhai City, he had developed a psychological shadow from being beaten by Lin Xuan. Moreover, as a fool, he knew better than to challenge an opponent who was clearly stronger.
yóu qí shì jīn tiān yī zǎo lǎo diē yǐ dài zhe xīn fù shǒu xià lí kāi le wàn shòu dǎo ， jù tǐ zuò shén me tā bù qīng chǔ ， hǎo xiàng shì yǔ hóng yè xiān zi yǒu guān de 。
尤其是今天一早老爹已带着心腹手下离开了万兽岛，具体做什么他不清楚，好像是与红叶仙子有关的。
He waved his sleeve, sending out a shield to protect himself before releasing a sound transmission talisman.
xiǎng dào hóng yè xiān zi ， zhè jiā huo yòu shì yī zhèn xīn yǎng ， kě xī cǐ nǚ shì bèi lǎo diē kàn zhòng ， tā zì rán bù gǎn bàn qiǎng 。
想到红叶仙子，这家伙又是一阵心痒，可惜此女是被老爹看中，他自然不敢半抢。
No, not that; instead, a yellow light shot out of his hand, moving slowly but quickly into the sky, then exploded with a loud bang. The brilliance was even more dazzling than fireworks, visible for miles around.
"Is it just not easy?"
Lin Xuan shook his head, a bitter smile playing on his face. He knew his own abilities well; if another Separation and Union stage cultivator were here, this demonic bird would have long been devoured.
Even for him, the chase was extremely difficult, but he now had an idea to escape. "No need to say it, I know in my heart."
Having used Soul Searching Technique, Lin Xuan naturally knew where Wanyou Island was. For cultivators, harming others while benefiting oneself was perfectly normal, especially since they were at odds with each other.
