第两千六百四十二章 天缘双魔

The two pursuers were clearly high-ranking cultivators, their遁光 (traces of their flight) moving swiftly. Just a moment ago, they had been at the horizon, but now, the dazzling light flashed several times, revealing Lin Yujiao's face.

In front was a tall and slender young woman with an extremely refined appearance, but her beautiful features were filled with panic—this was none other than Lin Yujiao herself.

A hundred years later, this girl’s cultivation had advanced by one level to the Profound Void middle stage. It seemed she must have encountered some extraordinary fortune over these past decades; otherwise, advancing from the Profound Void stage would not be so easy.

Facing a barrage of fiery light columns, this woman waved her hands, using an unknown secret technique. Her trace of flight suddenly doubled in speed and dodged the opponent's attack with ease.

Suddenly, something unexpected happened. Several dozen feet above her head, spatial fluctuations spread out, followed by a bracelet-shaped treasure appearing.

Of course, its size had increased by several dozen times, far beyond that of an ordinary bracelet.

A dim light column emerged from it. Lin Yujiao didn't have time to dodge and was instantly enveloped by the light column. She suddenly felt her body sink, making her movements sluggish.

In a high-stakes battle, every millimeter counted. Seizing this moment, the dark light and black aura behind caught up, blocking Lin Yujiao in between.

The light condensed into two cultivators at the Profound Void stage: one was an oddly dressed woman with flamboyant makeup, and the other was a tall man wearing yellow robes.

"Two Demons of Good Fortune!"

Lin Yujiao's voice, tinged with hatred but more out of fear, entered my ears. The cold laughter in their voices continued: "Little girl, why struggle? If it weren't for Uncle Wu saying you looked nice and not wanting to kill you, do you think you could have escaped this far?"

"But that's enough. Our patience is limited; if you cooperate, we can spare you much suffering. Otherwise, when my husband and I deal with you, you might lose limbs…"

To be fair, the woman’s voice was quite pleasant, but her tone was filled with a fierce intent. The best outcome would be to subdue Lin Yujiao without a fight; Uncle Wu's reward for capturing her alive would surely be generous.

Unfortunately, all this effort was in vain. How could Lin Yujiao surrender? With a wave of her hand, she summoned a green and emerald sword as her命宝 (life treasure).

This Green Radiance Sword was one of her most powerful treasures, but the man in yellow robes sneered: "A fool who dares to challenge fate."

Before he finished speaking, his hand snapped out, striking himself on the back. A small square seal emitted a burst of golden light, which directly clashed with the Green Radiance Sword.

With a loud bang, the two treasures collided, their golden and green energies intertwining. The golden light grew brighter, eventually overpowering the green aura.

The Green Radiance Sword flew backward, while Lin Yujiao spat out blood, her life treasure broken in just one strike. These demons must be even stronger than rumored.

"Hmph! I told you to surrender; look how much trouble you're in now."

The woman’s laughter echoed, filled with a sense of schadenfreude. With a wave of her hand, a red and bloody magical rope flew out.

"Blood Demon Rope!"

Lin Yujiao's pupils constricted. She couldn't have missed hearing about this famous treasure; it was said that no one in the Profound Void stage or below could escape once bound by it for thousands of years.

But due to her life treasure being damaged, her vital energy was disrupted, and she couldn’t muster any more power. Helplessly, she watched as the Blood Demon Rope approached.

Despair filled Lin Yujiao's eyes, but suddenly, something unexpected happened. The Blood Demon Rope was still several dozen feet away when a silver light flashed in mid-air—a thin silver thread that seemed harmless. But upon collision, this famous treasure was cut into pieces.

Lin Yujiao’s eyes widened in astonishment.

Such an astonishing scene would be hard to believe unless witnessed firsthand.

Could the Blood Demon Rope have been broken?

Impossible!

Unless… Lin Uncle!

She couldn’t think of anyone else with such extraordinary abilities except Lin Xuan.

On the other side, the Two Demons of Good Fortune were stunned. They almost thought they were dreaming.

The intense battle suddenly fell silent.

After a few moments, the woman realized: "Who, who is hiding and destroying my treasure? Aren't you brave enough to face me in open combat?"

"Alas!"

A sigh echoed: "I had no intention of concealing myself; it's your own insufficient cultivation that failed to see through such simple concealment techniques."

Before she could finish speaking, a figure appeared ten feet away from the left. Spiritual light flickered as if the air was disturbed like ripples on a calm lake.

Lin Xuan!

A hundred years of cultivation had brought Lin Xuan further progress in his energy control and mastery of his current realm. He looked ordinary, almost like an ordinary young man.

Even the Two Demons of Good Fortune would doubt whether he was a cultivator or just an ordinary person if it weren't for him floating in mid-air.

Lin Yujiao had no such hesitation; her face lit up with joy as she curtsied to Lin Xuan: "Greetings, Uncle!"

Uncle?

The Two Demons exchanged glances, their expressions clearly showing shock. They knew that Cloud Concealment Sect not only had the two original Supreme Elders but also a remarkable new addition.

It was said that this man named Lin, back when he was at the Spirit Transformation early stage hundreds of years ago, single-handedly challenged and defeated the Elder Immortal of Heavenly Extinction in a duel in Starlight City, becoming famous as the first person to survive a tribulation.

This fame had come and gone quickly. Lin Xuan appeared like a fleeting flower, leaving no trace after that.
