第三千六百七十四章 太真七修

Until the whispers of those old monsters around her reached her ears, she realized that the new arrival was seen as courting death. Joy faded from Lady Dream's face.

"Of course, how could I have forgotten," she thought to herself. "Though my sister has avenged our great wrong, Lin Xuan has also attracted the attention of a formidable opponent. The rules of the Rain Mist Commercial Alliance are not easily broken."

Unlike Lin Xuan, Lady Dream had no initial right to participate in the Peach Blossom Banquet. She had gone through much hardship and turmoil just to obtain an invitation.

She knew all too well about the alliance's strict regulations since the unexpected incident a million five hundred thousand years ago. The Rain Mist Commercial Alliance strictly prohibited any动手 by cultivators during the banquet.

Resolving grievances was possible, but only in the Arena of Life and Death. To maintain public trust, they enforced these rules with great rigor—any breach would be met with severe consequences.

Lin Xuan faced an immense danger, but Lady Dream's words made it unnecessary for him to regret anything. "Brother," she said, appearing beside Lin Xuan with a swift movement, "how did you end up here? I thank you for avenging me, but this has nothing to do with you. Please leave quickly; if the Rain Mist Commercial Alliance blames anyone, let it be me."

Lin Xuan felt warmth in his heart. After all these millennia, she hadn't changed.

He knew he would face great peril, but Lady Dream's words made him feel no regret. "Sister," he said with a smile, "what are you saying? As sworn brothers and sisters, we should share both joys and sorrows. I may not know the exact nature of your grudge against that Thunder Serpent Sovereign, but his enemies will be mine too. Running away is out of the question. What does Rain Mist Commercial Alliance matter?"

His words resonated with those nearby, who were also old cultivators. They couldn't help being moved by Lin Xuan's sincerity.

To reach the Transcendence Stage was a testament to great wisdom and insight. Lin Xuan’s words revealed his genuine feelings without any pretense or exaggeration.

What a bold little fellow! But his courage truly deserved admiration.

The old cultivators felt ashamed of their own inadequacy, but then came a loud laugh: "Such big talk, don't you fear your tongue will get tangled? You think you can challenge the Rain Mist Commercial Alliance? Surrender now and spare yourself much suffering. Otherwise, you'll face annihilation."

Lin Xuan frowned as he turned to see seven light orbs appearing on the horizon, each containing a long-bearded old cultivator.

His spiritual sense was so acute that he could easily discern their identities. Seven Transcendence后期 cultivators!

The Rain Mist Commercial Alliance's bold move left Lin Xuan in awe.

Meanwhile, the whispers of nearby cultivators filled his ears: "Did I see right? The True Virtue Seven are here."

"Such a big face this little guy has!"

"Heh, what big face? Your words are too biting. The True Virtue Seven hold great power within the Rain Mist Commercial Alliance and are formidable in their own right—seven Transcendence后期 cultivators from the same lineage, skilled in coordinated attacks. They can challenge domain masters if they unite. It's them who came here; no matter how powerful this guy is, he won't escape."

"True fool! Who would dare offend an alliance that spans three realms? The Rain Mist Commercial Alliance’s resources surpass those of even the most prestigious sects in the Spirit Realm."

"Hmph, it matters not now. You shouldn’t gloat. Anything can happen in cultivation. This boy who killed the Thunder Serpent Sovereign isn't simple; he might still have a chance."

"Friend Zhang, I disagree with your words," said Ye. "His strength is undeniable, but comparing him to the True Virtue Seven is absurd—they are on entirely different levels."

"Heh, what use are these arguments? Just watch and see. We're not related to this boy; his fate doesn't concern us," another cultivator retorted.

Various whispers continued, most expressing joy at others' misfortune, indifferent to Lin Xuan's outcome. Lady Dream's face was filled with regret: "I'm sorry, brother. It’s all my fault."

"Don’t worry about it," he said resolutely. "We still have a chance. The Rain Mist Commercial Alliance may be unreasonable, but they rely on power. We will leave this place alive."

Lin Xuan’s confidence was unwavering. Such minor troubles couldn't possibly lead to his downfall.

He looked up as the distant light points rapidly approached.
