第三千六百七十章 再续前缘

What Lin Xuan needed to do now was make the Rain Mist Business Alliance realize that he wasn't easily provoked. If they really pushed him to his limits, it would result in a mutual defeat.

After weighing the pros and cons, he believed they wouldn't actually want to exterminate him.

After all, such an effort would be extremely unwise.

With thoughts swirling in his mind, Lin Xuan didn't rush to escape. Even if Yaoshan was vast with numerous restrictions, without someone guiding him, it would only make his situation worse the more he fled.

Even if he could truly escape, Lin Xuan wouldn't leave this place.

It wasn't out of pique; rather, once he did so, Rain Mist Business Alliance's endless pursuit would begin.

Facing a power that spanned three realms, running away wouldn't solve anything. It would only backfire.

Moreover, the Peach Blossom Banquet was something Lin Xuan didn't intend to give up on.

So even though his opponent had already sent out a sound transmission talisman to summon reinforcements, Lin Xuan waited there anyway.

He showed no fear, walking as if he owned the place.

...

Such composure couldn't help but earn admiration from those observing cultivators, despite their disinterest in the matter. They were merely spectators, but Lin Xuan's calmness was still praiseworthy.

Looking around, murmurs filled his ears:

"Where did this young man come from? Is he really a late-stage Golden Transformation cultivator? Why can't we see his cultivation realm?"

"Humph, what’s so surprising about that? At our level, hiding one's cultivation realm isn’t difficult. The key is the strength he displays is hard to fathom; he easily killed Lightning Snake Venerable in just three moves. He’s too powerful."

"Powerful as he may be, can you really call him a newborn calf unafraid of tigers? This kid doesn't know what awaits him."

"Disaster, friend, your words are exaggerated. A late-stage Golden Transformation cultivator cannot be described as a newborn calf. He must understand the rules of life and death battles. His actions show he has his reasons."

"Reasons, perhaps because there are close relatives or friends involved in this battle, and the situation is unfavorable for him," another voice said.

"What reason is that? Life and death are predetermined; wealth and honor come from heaven. Participating in a life-and-death battle is a voluntary choice. No third party can interfere regardless of the outcome. This rule was set by Rain Mist Business Alliance, and it has never been broken over countless years."

"Alas, this young man’s specific age may be unclear, but he's definitely very young. Reaching this level proves his talent. With time, even if he doesn't become a top-tier figure like an Immortal or Demon King, he has the potential to become a domain powerhouse. Unfortunately, today is destined for him to wither here."

"Friend, I don’t think he will fall," said another voice disagreeing. His expression was full of admiration as he looked at Lin Xuan.

"Ah, it's Daoist Zhang from Cloud Ascension Mountain. I heard your divination skills are superb, but this time, you might have made a mistake."

"Why so?"

"The Rain Mist Business Alliance hosts the Peach Blossom Banquet; their rules can't be changed to satisfy everyone. This young man’s strength may be extraordinary, but it hasn’t reached the domain level. Do you think such an existence could make Rain Mist Business Alliance hesitate and break their word?"

"..."

"Enough, let's wait for a result. I’m curious why this young man remains so calm. He must know what he has done to deserve his fate. I don't believe he isn’t worried," the first voice said curiously.

...

Various discussions continued, but they didn't use sound transmission techniques, and Lin Xuan’s divine sense could clearly hear every word.

Most people were pessimistic about his future; even if he claimed no worries, that was a lie.

But fear was useless. Fear only made others underestimate him. So Lin Xuan showed remarkable composure as he casually walked towards Fairy Yuanyan.

Dream Yuanyan was stunned.

She had come to the battle with the intention of certain death against Lightning Snake Venerable. She knew their strength gap, but she didn't refuse when offered a life-and-death battle because she needed to avenge her sister’s death.

Her achievements today were inseparable from Sister Yuanying's efforts.

Unfortunately, Sister Yuanying had passed away at an early age due to shallow blessings.

Dream Yuanyan and her sister had a very close relationship. This was one of the greatest regrets in her life.

Originally, it could only be buried deep within her heart, but unexpectedly, she got the chance to reunite with her sister after coming to the Spirit Realm.

No, more accurately, Sister Yuanying had been reborn.

For cultivators, reincarnation was uncertain. Once entering the Six Realms Wheel of Life and Death, everything became unpredictable, severing ties with past lives.

However, there were exceptions. There could be errors during reincarnation.

And how such an error affected things depended on luck.

---

Mostly, it was bad, but occasionally, it made someone lucky.

Due to this error, they gained endless benefits, like retaining memories from their past life.

Dream Yuanying was one of the fortunate ones.

After rebirth, she retained all her past-life memories and had extraordinary talent. With abundant resources in the Spirit Realm, her cultivation progressed rapidly.

When Fairy Yuanyan ascended to the Spirit Realm, Sister Yuanying was already a Profound Knowledge cultivator.

And fate was so coincidental—perhaps there was an unseen force—that when Fairy Yuanyan separated from Lin Xuan during her ascension, she unexpectedly reunited with her sister in an accident.

Their reunion brought immense joy. After all their efforts, both sisters were now in the Spirit Realm.

Though the path of cultivation remained arduous, it was sweet to Dream Yuanyan.

She had thought they would live happily forever.

But misfortune struck soon after.

One day, Sister Yuanying ventured out to find a treasure.

The item wasn’t rare for her strength but required some time. The location wasn't dangerous either, so Dream Yuanyan never worried about her sister and shut herself in her cave.

However, the unpredictable nature of cultivation meant that something inexplicable happened.

Sister Yuanying never imagined this outing would be her final farewell to her sister; she died without understanding what had happened.
