“ bù zhī dào ?”
“不知道?”
"Don't know?"
lín xuān yǎn jīng wēi mī , liǎn sè yīn chén le xià qù 。 suí ┆ mèng ┆ xiǎo ┆ shuō ,.com
林轩眼睛微眯,脸色阴沉了下去。随┆夢┆小┆說,.com
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as his expression turned grim.随┆夢┆小┆說,.com
tā kě bú shì shén me xīn cí shǒu ruǎn de jiā huo , lián xiāng xī yù zhè yàng de shì qíng zhǐ yǒu chū rù xiū xiān jiè de cài niǎo cái huì qù zuò , lín xuān yòu shǒu tái qǐ , zhèng zhǔn bèi zhuā yī rén lái shī zhǎn sōu hún zhī shù , rán ér jiù zài cǐ kè , yī shēn chuān chā hóng sè zhǎng qún de shì nǚ tái qǐ le tóu lú 。
他可不是什么心慈手软的家伙,怜香惜玉这样的事情只有初入修仙界的菜鸟才会去做,林轩右手抬起,正准备抓一人来施展搜魂之术,然而就在此刻,一身穿插红色长裙的侍女抬起了头颅。
He wasn't a soft-hearted person; such acts of pity and respect were only done by rookies just entering the cultivation world. Lin Xuan raised his right hand, preparing to use Soul Scrying on someone, but at that moment, a maid in a red gown lifted her head.
“ qǐ bǐng qián bèi , gǎn wèn nín shuō de kě shì nà wèi rén zú de nǚ hái zi me ?”
“启禀前辈,敢问您说的可是那位人族的女孩子么?”
"Senior, may I ask if you are referring to that human girl?"
“ bù cuò ……” lín xuān yáng le yáng xià hé , yī liǎn de jù ào zhī sè :“ nǐ zhī dào tā zài hé chù ?”
“不错……”林轩扬了扬下颌,一脸的倨傲之色:“你知道她在何处?”
"Noticed...?"
“ nú bì xiǎo de , jiù zài fāng tíng xuān hòu miàn de nà dòng gé lóu zhī zhōng ……”
“奴婢晓得,就在芳庭轩后面的那栋阁楼之中……”
Lin Xuan raised his chin with an arrogant look: "Do you know where she is?"
“ ó ?”
“哦?”
"The servant knows. She's in the pavilion behind the Fragrant Courtyard..."
lín xuān tīng le cǐ yǔ , zài cì bì shàng shuāng mù , suī rán chéng zhǔ fǔ hěn dà , rán ér tā shén shí fù gài de miàn jī gèng jiā guǎng bó , zhǐ yào zhī dào yí gè dà gài de fāng xiàng , nà jiù hǎo zhǎo le 。
林轩听了此语,再次闭上双目,虽然城主府很大,然而他神识覆盖的面积更加广博,只要知道一个大概的方向,那就好找了。
"Oh?"
hěn kuài , lín xuān jiù yǒu le shōu huò , duì fāng guǒ rán bù gǎn huǎng yán xiāng qī , lín yù jiāo zhèng zài nà lǐ 。
很快,林轩就有了收获,对方果然不敢谎言相欺,林玉娇正在那里。
Lin Xuan closed his eyes again after hearing this, even though the City Lord’s residence was vast, his spiritual sense covered a much broader area. Knowing the general direction would make it easier to find her.
jì rán dé dào le yǒu yòng de xiàn suǒ , lín xuān yě méi yǒu xìng qù làn shā wú gū , shēn xíng yī shǎn , yǐ huà wèi yī dào kuáng fēng xiāo shī yú zhòng rén de shì xiàn 。
既然得到了有用的线索,林轩也没有兴趣滥杀无辜,身形一闪,已化为一道狂风消失于众人的视线。
Soon enough, Lin Xuan had his answer; the other party indeed didn't dare lie. Lin Yu娇 was there.
nà xiē shì nǚ wú bù dà kuāng , jié hòu yú shēng de qìng xìng yǐ jí 。
那些侍女无不大匡,劫后余生的庆幸以极。
With useful clues in hand, Lin Xuan showed no interest in killing innocents and flashed away, disappearing from sight.
huì yǒu rén dà yáo dà bǎi de chū xiàn yú cǐ dì ’ nán dào xī wěi shàng rén fā shēng le bù cè ?
会有人大摇大摆的出现于此地’难道蟋尾上人发生了不测?
The first floor was lavishly decorated, but Lin Yu娇 wasn’t here. She turned her gaze to a staircase corner and walked over.
tā men bù gǎn wàng zì chuǎi mó , rán ér qián tīng hěn kuài jiù yǒu xiāo xī chuán dào cǐ chù , méi cuò , xiē wěi shàng rén yǔn luò diào le 。
她们不敢妄自揣摩,然而前厅很快就有消息传到此处,没错,蝎尾上人陨落掉了。
"Could the master be back..."
chú le jīng è hái shì jīng è , jǐ nǚ xīn zhōng de zhèn hàn shì kě xiǎng ér zhī de , fēn shén qī dà néng , jū rán yě huì luò bài shēn sǐ me , zhè duì yú qū qū níng dān qī de tā men lái shuō , jī hū shì wú fǎ xiǎng xiàng de 。
除了惊愕还是惊愕,几女心中的震撼是可想而知的,分神期大能,居然也会落败身死么,这对于区区凝丹期的她们来说,几乎是无法想象的。
A respectful voice entered his ears as soon as he arrived on the second floor, where a female cultivator dressed like a maid greeted him with a bow.
rán ér shì shí bǎi zài yǎn qián , fǒu rèn yě méi yǒu yòng chǔ , zhè xiē shì nǚ , duì yú xiē wěi shàng rén , zì rán tán bù shàng zhōng xīn shén me , dāng jí shōu shí xì ruǎn , zuò niǎo shòu sàn 。
然而事实摆在眼前,否认也没有用处,这些侍女,对于蝎尾上人,自然谈不上衷心什么,当即收拾细软,作鸟兽散。
She was somewhat vague, barely able to make out who she was looking at.
zài shuō lìng yī biān 。
再说另一边。
But when she lifted her head, shock appeared on her face: "You... Who are you? How did you get here?"
jì rán dé zhī lín yù jiāo bèi cáng yú hé chù , lín xuān yào zhǎo dào tā zì rán yě jiù méi yǒu shén me nán dù yī lù de jìn zhì zhèn fǎ jiē bèi pò chú , hěn kuài , yī zuò měi lún měi huàn de lóu gé chū xiàn zài shì xiàn zhōng 。
既然得知林玉娇被藏于何处,林轩要找到她自然也就没有什么难度一路的禁制阵法皆被破除,很快,一座美轮美奂的楼阁出现在视线中。
This woman wasn’t bad-looking, but Lin Xuan had no interest in chatting with a small maid. He waved his sleeve and a green glow enveloped the girl, causing her to faint.
“ jiù shì cǐ chù ……”
“就是此处……”
The girl sitting by the bed heard the commotion and raised her head, revealing an incredibly beautiful yet sorrowful face—Lin Yu娇’s.
lín xuān shén shí jiǎn shì wú wù , wāng shēn guāng máng yī liǎn , cóng bàn kōng jiàng luò dào le dì biǎo shàng miàn 。
林轩神识检视无误,汪身光芒一敛,从半空降落到了地表上面。
She had been forcibly married off by an ancient demon, and she was already considering suicide. However, all of her magical power was sealed, making self-destruction impossible. Furthermore, there were always maids arranged by the old demon around her, leaving no other way to end her life.
cǐ chù yǐ shì nèi yuàn , zài méi yǒu jìn zhì zǔ gé , lín xuān shēn chū shǒu lái , qīng qīng yī duī ,“ zhī ya ’, yī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ nà mén xiàng lǐ miàn dǎ kāi le 。
此处已是内院,再没有禁制阻隔,林轩伸出手来,轻轻一堆,“吱呀’,一声传入耳朵那门像里面打开了。
Her heart filled with fear, but fortunately, the heavens seemed to hear her prayers. Just as she was about to be married, the old demon’s enemy arrived...
fù lì táng huáng de chén shè yìng rù yǎn lián , gè hé jiā jù bǎi shè míng guì wú bǐ , biàn shì shì sú de huáng gōng yǔ qí xiāng bǐ , nà yě shì yuǎn yuǎn bù jí 。
富丽堂皇的陈设映入眼帘,各和家具摆设名贵无比,便是世俗的皇宫与其相比,那也是远远不及。
Although the danger had been temporarily pushed back, the saying went that one could avoid the first day of the month but not the fifteenth. Lin Yu娇 still had no idea what fate awaited her.
zhè méi yǒu shén me xī qí xiū xiān zhě běn jiù shì chāo tuō yú fán rén zhī shàng de cún zài , bié shuō fēn shén qī zhè yàng de dà néng , jiù suàn shì yī xiǎo xiǎo de yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě , zhǐ yào yuàn yì , yě kě yǐ bǐ fán jiān de dì wáng guò dé gèng jiā de xiāo yáo kuài huó 。
这没有什么稀奇修仙者本就是超脱于凡人之上的存在,别说分神期这样的大能,就算是一小小的元婴期修仙者,只要愿意,也可以比凡间的帝王过得更加的逍遥快活。
Her heart was filled with anxiety, but there was nothing she could do about it. Time passed in a state of restless waiting, and the feeling was anything but pleasant.
zhǐ bù guò hěn shǎo yǒu rén zhè me zuò , bì jìng xiǎng shòu shì zàn shí de , ér cháng shēng bù lǎo xiǎn rán jù yǒu gèng dà de yòu huò 。
只不过很少有人这么做,毕竟享受是暂时的,而长生不老显然具有更大的诱惑。
Hearing the noise, Lin Yu娇 lifted her head just as Lin Xuan looked over. Their gazes met mid-air.
bù guò xiē wěi shàng rén què shì yí gè yì shù , shí lì dào le tā zhè ge děng jí , xīn zhōng yě jiàn jiàn yǒu shù , míng bái zì jǐ zhè bèi zi bú lùn rú hé nǔ lì , xiū wèi yě nán zài cún jìn yí bù , jì rán nǔ lì méi yǒu yòng chǔ , nà bù rú jí shí xíng lè , fǎn zhèng yǐ tā fēn shén qī de shí lì , huó gè shí jǐ èr shí wàn nián hái shì méi yǒu shén me dà ài de 。
不过蝎尾上人却是一个异数,实力到了他这个等级,心中也渐渐有数,明白自己这辈子不论如何努力,修为也难再存进一步,既然努力没有用处,那不如及时行乐,反正以他分神期的实力,活个十几二十万年还是没有什么大碍的。
Lin Xuan’s face showed a faint smile, while Lin Yu娇 almost thought she had imagined it or was seeing things due to too much hope for rescue.
suǒ yǐ zhè lǎo jiā huǒ , guò dé bǐ fán jiān de dì wáng gèng jiā shū fú 。
所以这老家伙,过得比凡间的帝王更加舒服。
She blinked, and there stood Lin Xuan in front of her, his face so kind and gentle—it wasn’t just an illusion.
rán ér shàn è dào tóu zhōng yǒu bào , yīn wèi qiáng qǔ lín yù jiāo , què mò míng de yǔn luò zài lín xuān shǒu zhōng shèn zhì zhì sǐ yě hěn hú tú , bù zhī dào zhè yī qiè , wèi de jiū jìng shì shén me 。
然而善恶到头终有报,因为强娶林玉娇,却莫名的陨落在林轩手中甚至至死也很糊涂,不知道这一切,为的究竟是什么。
"Li... Li Senior Brother."
yī lóu de bǎi shè suī rán shē huá , rán ér lín yù jiāo què bìng bù zài cǐ chù , lù chū mù guāng zhuǎn guò , jiù xiàng guǎi jiǎo chù de yī lóu tī zǒu guò qù le 。
一楼的摆设虽然奢华,然而林玉娇却并不在此处,露出目光转过,就像拐角处的一楼梯走过去了。
To be honest, although they had some interactions, they weren’t very familiar. But in this strange world, seeing a fellow cultivator made them feel happy and close.
“ nán dào shì zhǔ rén huí lái le ……”
“难道是主人回来了……”
"Junior Sister Lin, you’ve suffered." Lin Xuan scratched his head; he was at a loss for words on how to greet her after such an unusual meeting.
yī gōng jìng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ , lín xuān cái gāng gāng lái dào èr lóu , jiù kàn jiàn yī zuò yā huán dǎ bàn de nǚ xiū xiàng zì jǐ yī fú 。
一恭敬的声音传入耳朵,林轩才刚刚来到二楼,就看见一做丫鬟打扮的女修像自己一福。
"Why are you here, Senior Brother Lin? Where’s the old demon?" Lin Yu娇, though only a Cave Profound cultivator, had been trained enough to sense something wasn’t right. She was in the City Lord’s inner residence now.
zhè wèi yě gòu mó hú , lián rén dōu méi yǒu kàn qīng chǔ 。
这位也够模糊,连人都没有看清楚。
In the main hall, Lin Senior Brother appeared, along with an ancient demon, and there were guests present today. It would be impossible for her to be here; the residence was protected by barriers that could warn of intruders, even if they weren’t very strong.
bù guò dāng tā tái qǐ tóu lú liǎn shàng jiù lù chū le jīng è zhī sè :“ nǐ ……, nǐ shì shuí , zěn me , zěn me lái dào zhè lǐ de ?”
不过当她抬起头颅脸上就露出了惊愕之色:“你……,你是谁,怎么,怎么来到这里的?”
How did he get in? Could it be...
cǐ nǚ zhǎng dé hái suàn bú cuò , bù guò lín xuān zì rán méi yǒu xìng qù tóng yī xiǎo yā huán luō suo , xiù páo yī fú , yī dào qīng xiá juǎn guò , cǐ nǚ jiù yùn guò qù le 。
此女长得还算不错,不过林轩自然没有兴趣同一小丫鬟啰嗦,袖袍一拂,一道青霞卷过,此女就晕过去了。
Lin Yu娇 suddenly thought of a possibility: The old demon had already perished, and only then would his followers scatter. This was the only scenario where Lin Senior Brother could enter here.
tīng jiàn xiǎng dòng zuò zài lǐ shǒu chuáng biān de shào nǚ tái qǐ tóu lú , lù chū yī zhāng jué měi dàn què qī wǎn de miàn ěr , bú shì lín yù jiāo hái néng yǒu nǎ ge 。
听见响动坐在里首床边的少女抬起头颅,露出一张绝美但却凄婉的面尔,不是林玉娇还能有哪个。
This thought excited her so much that she almost trembled with joy, barely able to form coherent words.
bèi yī gǔ mó qiáng qǔ wèi qiè , cǐ nǚ zǎo jiù lián sǐ de xīn dōu yǒu liǎo wú nài hún shēn de fǎ lì bèi jìn gù , xiǎng yào zì bào yuán yīng yě chéng le shē qiú 。
被一古魔强娶为妾,此女早就连死的心都有了无奈浑身的法力被禁锢,想要自爆元婴也成了奢求。
"Li Senior Brother, did your old enemy kill the old demon?"
ér qiě tā de shēn cè , suí shí yǒu lǎo mó ān pái de yā huán gēn zhe , biàn shì xiǎng yòng bié de fāng fǎ qiú sǐ , nà yě shì kǔ wú shàn cè 。
而且她的身侧,随时有老魔安排的丫鬟跟着,便是想用别的方法求死,那也是苦无善策。
It wasn’t surprising for her to be so excited; if this were true, she would finally escape her suffering.
xīn zhōng chōng mǎn le huáng kǒng , hǎo zài lǎo tiān yé huò xǔ shì tīng dào le zì jǐ de yì qiú , zài kuài yào bài tiān dì de yī kè , lǎo mó lái le duì tóu ……
心中充满了惶恐,好在老天爷或许是听到了自己的亦求,在快要拜天地的一刻,老魔来了对头……
Lin Xuan smiled. Sensing her hope and anxiety, there was no need to hide anything: "Yes, Junior Sister Lin, you don't have to worry. The old demon is gone, eliminated by me..."
rán ér wēi jī suī rán zàn shí tuī hòu , kě sú huà shuō , duǒ dé guò chū yī , duǒ bù liǎo shí wǔ , duì yú zì jǐ wèi lái de mìng yùn rú hé , lín yù jiāo yī jiù shì yì diǎn dǐ yě méi yǒu 。
然而危机虽然暂时推后,可俗话说,躲得过初一,躲不了十五,对于自己未来的命运如何,林玉娇依旧是一点底也没有。
"Eliminated by you?" Lin Yu娇 was surprised; although her magical power was sealed, a small part of her spiritual sense could still be released. She couldn’t feel the other person’s cultivation level, but she could sense their realm.
xīn zhōng tǎn tè , rán ér bù yòu wú fǎ kě xiǎng , shí jiān zài jiāo zhuó de děng dài zhōng dù guò , nà zī wèi ér bié tí yǒu duō me de nán áo le 。
心中忐忑,然而布又无法可想,时间在焦灼的等待中度过,那滋味儿别提有多么的难熬了。
Could it be...
cǐ kè tīng jiàn xiǎng dòng , lín yù jiāo tái qǐ tóu lú , qià hǎo lín xuān yě wàng guò lái , yú shì , liǎng rén de mù guāng zài bàn kōng zhōng duì pèng 。
此刻听见响动,林玉娇抬起头颅,恰好林轩也望过来,于是,两人的目光在半空中对碰。
She didn't have much interaction with Lin Xuan, but she knew he wasn’t someone who liked to exaggerate. This revelation shocked her so much that she stuttered.
lín xuān liǎn shàng lù chū dàn dàn de xiào róng , lín yù jiāo zé jī hū yǐ wéi zì jǐ kàn cuò , huò zhě shuō shì tài guò qǐ pàn huò jiù chū xiàn huàn jué le 。
林轩脸上露出淡淡的笑容,林玉娇则几乎以为自己看错,或者说是太过企盼获救出现幻觉了。
"Li... Li Senior Brother... No, should I call you Uncle? Have you advanced to the Profound Realm?"
tā zhǎ le zhǎ yǎn , kě lín xuān de miàn róng què zhēn shí de chū xiàn zài miàn qián 。
她眨了眨眼,可林轩的面容却真实的出现在面前。
Seeing his expression, it was as if she were looking at a monster. It had been over a century since their last meeting, but for cultivators of this level, it felt like just a blink.
nà me de hé ǎi , nà me de wēn hé , jué bú shì zì jǐ yī shí yǎn jīng chū cuò 。
那么的和蔼,那么的温和,绝不是自己一时眼睛出错。
Their original goal in coming to the demon realm was merely to find ingredients for refining a Profound Pill, but even with such a rare pill, advancement wasn't guaranteed.
“ chí ……,……” lín shī xiōng 。”
“持……,……”林师兄。”
But Lin Senior Brother... No, Uncle. He had advanced from the Cave Profound Realm within a hundred years, becoming a powerful cultivator of the Profound Realm. Was he really exaggerating? Seeing someone so formidable, she couldn’t believe her eyes. Her heart was in turmoil.
píng xīn lái shuō , liǎng rén suī rán yǒu xiē jiāo jí , dàn bǐ cǐ zhī jiān , yě bù néng shuō hěn shú xī , rán ér zài zhè yì jiè zhī zhōng , kàn jiàn le tóng mén , xīn zhōng de gāo xìng yǔ qīn jìn , què shì kě xiǎng ér zhī 。
平心来说,两人虽然有些交集,但彼此之间,也不能说很熟悉,然而在这异界之中,看见了同门,心中的高兴与亲近,却是可想而知。
Envy, admiration, and respect—of course, there was also some jealousy.
“ lín shī mèi , nǐ shòu kǔ le 。’, lín xuān náo le náo tóu , zhè zhǒng jiàn miàn de fāng shì , ràng tā yě zhuō yú yán cí , bù zhī dào gāi shuō diǎn shén me 。
“林师妹,你受苦了。’,林轩挠了挠头,这种见面的方式,让他也拙于言辞,不知道该说点什么。
"Yes, I seized this opportunity and advanced to the Profound Realm..."
“ lín shī xiōng , nǐ zěn me huì zài cǐ chù , nà xiē wěi lǎo guài ne ?’, lín yù jiāo hǎo dǎi yě shì dòng xuán qī xiū xiān zhě , zhè xīn xìng zì rán shì mó liàn dào yí dìng chéng dù , zuì chū de gāo xìng guò hòu , hěn kuài jiù chá jué chū yǎn qián de qíng kuàng yǒu diǎn bú duì tóu 。
“林师兄,你怎么会在此处,那蝎尾老怪呢?’,林玉娇好歹也是洞玄期修仙者,这心性自然是磨练到一定程度,最初的高兴过后,很快就察觉出眼前的情况有点不对头。
"Opportunity?"
zì jǐ rú jīn kě shì zài chéng zhǔ fǔ de nèi zhái zhī zhōng 。
自己如今可是在城主府的内宅之中。
Lin Yu娇 laughed inwardly; her new Uncle Brother was truly humble. How could such an advancement be just a coincidence? Everyone else had it easier. The Profound Realm was a turning point; once you entered, you were considered a powerful cultivator. So this realm was particularly difficult to break through. Lin Senior Brother’s casual mention of it seemed too dismissive.
qián tīng , lín shī xiōng mào kè , gǔ mó , hái yǒu kě néng hùn rù , bì jìng jīn tiān qíng kuàng tè shū , hè kè yún jí cǐ chù , rán ér nèi zhái què shì bù kě néng de , yǒu jìn zhì shǒu hù , suī rán zhè xiē jìn zhì bù suàn hěn qiáng , dàn dōu yǒu yù jǐng de xiào guǒ , yí dàn yǒu wài rén chuǎng rù , xiē wěi shàng rén mǎ shàng jiù huì xiǎo de 。
前厅,林师兄冒刻,古魔,还有可能混入,毕竟今天情况特殊,贺客云集此处,然而内宅却是不可能的,有禁制守护,虽然这些禁制不算很强,但都有预警的效果,一旦有外人闯入,蝎尾上人马上就会晓得。
But she couldn’t show any sign of doubt on the surface. Even when he was still at the Cave Profound Realm, Lin Senior Brother could defeat Sword Venerable on horseback; his strength far surpassed that of other cultivators in the same realm. Advancing to the Profound Realm now must be even more formidable. Her sister might not be able to match him either. In other words, he was the real top expert of their sect, though without the title of Venerable Elder, his power was undeniable. Such a presence couldn’t be offended.
tā jiū jìng shì zěn me jìn lái de , nán , nán dào shuō ……
他究竟是怎么进来的,难,难道说……
Moreover, if it weren't for Lin Senior Brother, she would have been forced to marry that disgusting ancient demon as his concubine. Lin Xuan saved her from such a fate; her gratitude knew no bounds. She couldn't afford to upset him by saying anything disrespectful.
lín yù jiāo tū rán xiǎng dào yí gè kě néng le , nà jiù shì xiē wěi shàng rén yǐ jīng yǔn luò , wéi yǒu zhè zhǒng qíng kuàng xià , shù dǎo hú sūn sàn , lín shī xiōng cái yǒu kě néng jìn rù dào zhè lǐ de 。
林玉娇突然想到一个可能了,那就是蝎尾上人已经陨落,唯有这种情况下,树倒猢孙散,林师兄才有可能进入到这里的。
"Congratulations, Uncle Brother! Thank you for your great kindness. I can’t perform the courtesy ritual due to the restrictions placed on me, but please don’t take it amiss..."
xiǎng dào zhè lǐ , lín yù jiāo yī zhèn jī dòng , jiāo qū dōu yīn wèi xīng fèn ér fā qiú , shèn zhì lián huà ’ dōu bù zěn me shuō dé quán le 。
想到这里,林玉娇一阵激动,娇躯都因为兴奋而发求,甚至连话’都不怎么说得全了。
"Uncle Brother?"
“ lín shī xiōng , mò fēi xiē ní shàng rén yǔn luò ’ bèi tā de lǎo duì tóu gěi shā diào le 。”
“林师兄,莫非蝎尼上人陨落’被他的老对头给杀掉了。”
Lin Xuan scratched his nose; although he knew the rules of the cultivation world, their last meeting had been as equals. Now they were a generation apart, and it felt strange. But Lin Xuan didn’t decline the title; this was normal.
yě nán guài cǐ nǚ jī dòng , ruò shì rú cǐ de huà , zì jǐ jiù dé tuō kǔ hǎi le 。
也难怪此女激动,若是如此的话,自己就得脱苦海了。
As for the restrictions, Lin Xuan paid them no mind. He walked over and inserted his sleeve into the air, sending out a green glow that entered Lin Yu娇’s head. She immediately felt as if she were in a furnace, with an overwhelming magical power directly breaking down her internal barriers.
lín xuān xiào le : gǎn jué dào duì fāng de qǐ pàn yǔ tǎn tè , dāng rán méi yǒu bì yào yǐn mán shén me :“ bù cuò , shī mèi nǐ bù yòng dān xīn shén me , xiē wěi shàng rén yǐ jīng hún fēi pò sàn diào le , bèi wǒ miè chú ……”
林轩笑了:感觉到对方的企盼与忐忑,当然没有必要隐瞒什么:“不错,师妹你不用担心什么,蝎尾上人已经魂飞魄散掉了,被我灭除……”
P.S.: In the book review section, I saw a friend named Pavilion ask when the legendary eruption would happen. Yes, there will be one, but please wait a few more days. I’m quite busy these days; my cousin’s wedding required me to help out, and it has taken up much of my time. The eruption will definitely come soon.
"Don't know?"
Lin Xuan's eyes narrowed as his expression turned grim.随┆夢┆小┆說,.com
He wasn't a soft-hearted person; such acts of pity and respect were only done by rookies just entering the cultivation world. Lin Xuan raised his right hand, preparing to use Soul Scrying on someone, but at that moment, a maid in a red gown lifted her head.
"Senior, may I ask if you are referring to that human girl?"
"Noticed...?"
Lin Xuan raised his chin with an arrogant look: "Do you know where she is?"
"The servant knows. She's in the pavilion behind the Fragrant Courtyard..."
"Oh?"
Lin Xuan closed his eyes again after hearing this, even though the City Lord’s residence was vast, his spiritual sense covered a much broader area. Knowing the general direction would make it easier to find her.
Soon enough, Lin Xuan had his answer; the other party indeed didn't dare lie. Lin Yu娇 was there.
With useful clues in hand, Lin Xuan showed no interest in killing innocents and flashed away, disappearing from sight.
The first floor was lavishly decorated, but Lin Yu娇 wasn’t here. She turned her gaze to a staircase corner and walked over.
"Could the master be back..."
A respectful voice entered his ears as soon as he arrived on the second floor, where a female cultivator dressed like a maid greeted him with a bow.
She was somewhat vague, barely able to make out who she was looking at.
But when she lifted her head, shock appeared on her face: "You... Who are you? How did you get here?"
This woman wasn’t bad-looking, but Lin Xuan had no interest in chatting with a small maid. He waved his sleeve and a green glow enveloped the girl, causing her to faint.
The girl sitting by the bed heard the commotion and raised her head, revealing an incredibly beautiful yet sorrowful face—Lin Yu娇’s.
She had been forcibly married off by an ancient demon, and she was already considering suicide. However, all of her magical power was sealed, making self-destruction impossible. Furthermore, there were always maids arranged by the old demon around her, leaving no other way to end her life.
Her heart filled with fear, but fortunately, the heavens seemed to hear her prayers. Just as she was about to be married, the old demon’s enemy arrived...

She blinked, and there stood Lin Xuan in front of her, his face so kind and gentle—it wasn’t just an illusion.
"Li... Li Senior Brother."
To be honest, although they had some interactions, they weren’t very familiar. But in this strange world, seeing a fellow cultivator made them feel happy and close.
"Junior Sister Lin, you’ve suffered." Lin Xuan scratched his head; he was at a loss for words on how to greet her after such an unusual meeting.
"Why are you here, Senior Brother Lin? Where’s the old demon?" Lin Yu娇, though only a Cave Profound cultivator, had been trained enough to sense something wasn’t right. She was in the City Lord’s inner residence now.
In the main hall, Lin Senior Brother appeared, along with an ancient demon, and there were guests present today. It would be impossible for her to be here; the residence was protected by barriers that could warn of intruders, even if they weren’t very strong.
How did he get in? Could it be...
Lin Yu娇 suddenly thought of a possibility: The old demon had already perished, and only then would his followers scatter. This was the only scenario where Lin Senior Brother could enter here.
This thought excited her so much that she almost trembled with joy, barely able to form coherent words.
"Li Senior Brother, did your old enemy kill the old demon?"
It wasn’t surprising for her to be so excited; if this were true, she would finally escape her suffering.
Lin Xuan smiled. Sensing her hope and anxiety, there was no need to hide anything: "Yes, Junior Sister Lin, you don't have to worry. The old demon is gone, eliminated by me..."
"Eliminated by you?" Lin Yu娇 was surprised; although her magical power was sealed, a small part of her spiritual sense could still be released. She couldn’t feel the other person’s cultivation level, but she could sense their realm.
Could it be...
She didn't have much interaction with Lin Xuan, but she knew he wasn’t someone who liked to exaggerate. This revelation shocked her so much that she stuttered.
"Li... Li Senior Brother... No, should I call you Uncle? Have you advanced to the Profound Realm?"
Seeing his expression, it was as if she were looking at a monster. It had been over a century since their last meeting, but for cultivators of this level, it felt like just a blink.
Their original goal in coming to the demon realm was merely to find ingredients for refining a Profound Pill, but even with such a rare pill, advancement wasn't guaranteed.
But Lin Senior Brother... No, Uncle. He had advanced from the Cave Profound Realm within a hundred years, becoming a powerful cultivator of the Profound Realm. Was he really exaggerating? Seeing someone so formidable, she couldn’t believe her eyes. Her heart was in turmoil.
Envy, admiration, and respect—of course, there was also some jealousy.
"Yes, I seized this opportunity and advanced to the Profound Realm..."
"Opportunity?"
Lin Yu娇 laughed inwardly; her new Uncle Brother was truly humble. How could such an advancement be just a coincidence? Everyone else had it easier. The Profound Realm was a turning point; once you entered, you were considered a powerful cultivator. So this realm was particularly difficult to break through. Lin Senior Brother’s casual mention of it seemed too dismissive.
But she couldn’t show any sign of doubt on the surface. Even when he was still at the Cave Profound Realm, Lin Senior Brother could defeat Sword Venerable on horseback; his strength far surpassed that of other cultivators in the same realm. Advancing to the Profound Realm now must be even more formidable. Her sister might not be able to match him either. In other words, he was the real top expert of their sect, though without the title of Venerable Elder, his power was undeniable. Such a presence couldn’t be offended.
Moreover, if it weren't for Lin Senior Brother, she would have been forced to marry that disgusting ancient demon as his concubine. Lin Xuan saved her from such a fate; her gratitude knew no bounds. She couldn't afford to upset him by saying anything disrespectful.
"Congratulations, Uncle Brother! Thank you for your great kindness. I can’t perform the courtesy ritual due to the restrictions placed on me, but please don’t take it amiss..."
"Uncle Brother?"
Lin Xuan scratched his nose; although he knew the rules of the cultivation world, their last meeting had been as equals. Now they were a generation apart, and it felt strange. But Lin Xuan didn’t decline the title; this was normal.
As for the restrictions, Lin Xuan paid them no mind. He walked over and inserted his sleeve into the air, sending out a green glow that entered Lin Yu娇’s head. She immediately felt as if she were in a furnace, with an overwhelming magical power directly breaking down her internal barriers.
P.S.: In the book review section, I saw a friend named Pavilion ask when the legendary eruption would happen. Yes, there will be one, but please wait a few more days. I’m quite busy these days; my cousin’s wedding required me to help out, and it has taken up much of my time. The eruption will definitely come soon.
