nán dào zì jǐ jìng yào yǔn luò ？
难道自己竟要陨落？
Could it be that he was about to fall?
zhè ge niàn tou shàng wèi zhuǎn guò ， màn tiān de jiàn guāng jù lí tā men yǐ bù guò zhàng xǔ 。()
这个念头尚未转过，漫天的剑光距离他们已不过丈许。()
The thought had barely formed when the sword lights in the sky were only a few feet away from them.
zhè shí hòu gēn běn jiù méi yǒu duǒ shǎn de yú dì ， jì chū bǎo wù fáng yù tóng yàng lái bù jí 。
这时候根本就没有躲闪的余地，祭出宝物防御同样来不及。
There was no time left to dodge, and even if they tried to use their treasures for defense, it would still be too late.
hé kuàng jiàn shí le jiàn guāng de xī lì ， jiù suàn zhēn jì chū fáng yù de bǎo wù ， shí yǒu ** yě bú huì yǒu shén me yòng tú 。
何况见识了剑光的犀利，就算真祭出防御的宝物，十有**也不会有什么用途。
Moreover, having witnessed the sharpness of the sword lights, even if they really did summon defensive treasures, there would likely be little use; ten out of ten chances were that they wouldn't survive.
qī rén de liǎn sè yǐ shì jué wàng dào le jí chù 。
七人的脸色已是绝望到了极处。
The seven of them had reached a point of utter despair.
huí xiǎng gāng gāng de jīng guò 。
回想刚刚的经过。
Recalling what had just happened.
cóng jiāo shǒu dào shēn xiàn xiǎn jìng bù guò shùn xī de gōng fu 。
从交手到身陷险境不过瞬息的功夫。
From the moment they started fighting to being trapped in peril, it was merely an instant's work.
shuō miǎo shā tài guò 。
说秒杀太过。
It wasn't quite a one-hit kill, but it seemed like they hadn't lasted more than a few rounds.
dàn zì jǐ qī rén sì hū zhēn méi yǒu jiān chí jǐ gè huí hé 。
但自己七人似乎真没有坚持几个回合。
Perhaps there were some sudden factors involved, but the disparity in their strength was obvious. This unassuming little fellow turned out to be a peerless powerhouse.
huò xǔ yǒu tū rán de yīn sù ， dàn bǐ cǐ shí lì de chā jù yǐ shì yī lǎn wú yú ， zhè mào bù jīng rén de xiǎo jiā huo ， jū rán shì yī jué shì qiáng zhě 。
或许有突然的因素，但彼此实力的差距已是一览无余，这貌不惊人的小家伙，居然是一绝世强者。
The seven of them regretted it bitterly. Since they had embarked on the path of cultivation, they had endured countless hardships to reach this stage. After finally breaking free from the constraints of lifespan, could it really end here?
qī rén huǐ dé cháng zi dōu qīng le 。
七人悔得肠子都青了。
They were too unwilling to accept such a fate.
zì cóng tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù ， tā men xiū liàn dào zhè yī bù yě shì jīng lì liǎo wú shù de kǔ chǔ ， hǎo bù róng yì zhèng tuō le shòu yuán de shù fù ， nán dào zuì hòu ， jū rán yào zhé yì yú cǐ chù 。
自从踏上修仙之路，他们修炼到这一步也是经历了无数的苦楚，好不容易挣脱了寿元的束缚，难道最后，居然要折翼于此处。
But what could they do?
tài bù gān xīn le 。
太不甘心了。
Their fates were now in someone else's hands. But would he... show mercy?
kě yòu néng rú hé ？
可又能如何？
The seven True Reality cultivators were on the brink of death; even the old monsters watching them were dumbfounded by how quickly the situation had reversed.
xiàn zài de mìng yùn yǐ bèi bié rén bǎ wò ， kě tā …… huì shǒu xià liú qíng me ？
现在的命运已被别人把握，可他……会手下留情么？
They had all thought Lin Xuan was about to fall, but in an instant, it turned out that he was their opponent facing a dire outcome.
tài zhēn qī xiū yǐ mìng zài qǐng kè ， nà xiē páng guān de lǎo guài wù ， hé cháng bú shì chēng mù jié shé 。
太真七修已命在顷刻，那些旁观的老怪物，何尝不是瞠目结舌。
He was too strong.
zhè xíng shì nì zhuǎn dé yě tài kuài le 。
这形势逆转得也太快了。
Why hadn't his name ever been heard before?
yuán běn rén rén yǐ wéi lín xuān yào yǔn luò ， méi xiǎng dào zhuǎn yǎn jiān què shì tā de duì shǒu ， miàn lín wàn jié bù fù de jié jú le 。
原本人人以为林轩要陨落，没想到转眼间却是他的对手，面临万劫不复的结局了。
Although the Three Realms were vast, such peerless powerhouses shouldn’t be unheard of.
qiáng ， zhè xiǎo jiā huo qiáng dé lí pǔ 。
强，这小家伙强得离谱。
Among the cultivators present, only Fairy Ruyan seemed genuinely surprised. The feeling was akin to returning from hell to heaven.
wèi hé tā de míng hào què cóng wèi tīng shuō 。
为何他的名号却从未听说。
It was simply too wonderful.
sān jiè suī rán miàn jī guǎng bó ， dàn zhè yàng de jué shì qiáng zhě ， yú qíng yú lǐ ， dōu bù yīng gāi shì mò mò wú wén de 。
三界虽然面积广博，但这样的绝世强者，于情于理，都不应该是默默无闻的。
How did my brother train?
zài chǎng de xiū xiān zhě ， wéi yī gǎn dào jīng xǐ de kǒng pà jiù shì rú yān xiān zi le 。
在场的修仙者，唯一感到惊喜的恐怕就是如嫣仙子了。
Even though Dream Ruyan knew that Lin Xuan had always been formidable, killing his peers was as easy as cutting melons and cucumbers.
nà gǎn jué ， jiù yǔ cóng dì yù huí dào tiān táng xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
那感觉，就与从地狱回到天堂相差仿佛。
But he had only advanced from the Separation Realm to the Transcendence Realm in a mere few thousand years!
shí zài shì tài měi miào le 。
实在是太美妙了。
In such a short time, for him to reach this stage of cultivation was already incredibly unbelievable.
dì di tā jiū jìng zěn me xiū liàn de 。
弟弟他究竟怎么修炼的。
Could his power and abilities still keep up?
suī rán mèng rú yān zhī dào lín xuān yí xiàng fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， miè shā tóng jiē cún zài yǔ kǎn guā qiè cài chà bu duō 。
虽然梦如嫣知道林轩一向非同小可，灭杀同阶存在与砍瓜切菜差不多。
No, not just keep up; they were far beyond those of his peers.
kě tā cóng lí hé dào dù jié bì jìng cái qū qū jǐ qiān nián a ！
可他从离合到渡劫毕竟才区区几千年啊！
This could be called nothing but a miracle... no, it couldn't even be described as one.
zhè me duǎn de shí jiān ， jìng jiè néng gòu shēng dào rú cǐ dì bù ， yǐ shì ràng rén gǎn dào fèn wài bù kě sī yì le 。
这么短的时间，境界能够升到如此地步，已是让人感到分外不可思议了。
Apart from admiration, Dream Ruyan felt like she had to bow down to her sworn brother. Of course, there was more joy than anything else.
fǎ lì yǔ shén tōng zěn me yī jiù gēn dé shàng ne ？
法力与神通怎么依旧跟得上呢？
With such power, my brother might really be able to resolve the crisis.
bú duì ， bú shì gēn dé shàng ， shì yī jiù yuǎn chāo tóng jiē cún zài xǔ duō 。
不对，不是跟得上，是依旧远超同阶存在许多。
After all, they only violated Rain Mist Alliance's rules; if he had enough resources and confidence, the other party wouldn't persist in their demands.
zhè chēng zhī wèi qí jì dōu bù wèi guò …… bù 。 qí jì dōu wú fǎ xíng róng zhè zhǒng biàn huà de 。
这称之为奇迹都不为过……不。奇迹都无法形容这种变化的。
But there was a condition: they mustn’t truly break ties with the Rain Mist Alliance. Therefore, no matter what happened, these seven True Reality cultivators couldn't fall.
chú le pèi fú hái shì pèi fú ， mèng rú yān duì zì jǐ zhè jié bài xiōng dì jiǎn zhí yào wǔ tǐ tóu dì diào le 。
除了佩服还是佩服，梦如嫣对自己这结拜兄弟简直要五体投地掉了。
Otherwise, the Rain Mist Alliance would have nowhere to retreat even if they wanted to stop.
dāng rán ， gèng duō de shì jīng xǐ 。
当然，更多的是惊喜。
With this thought, Dream Ruyan felt extremely anxious. She tried to remind Lin Xuan not to be too ruthless, but it was already too late. The Nine Palaces Instant Sword was less than three feet away from their heads.
dì di rú cǐ shí lì ， shuō bù dìng zhēn néng gòu huà jiě wēi jī 。
弟弟如此实力，说不定真能够化解危机。
They were indeed on the verge of death without any exaggeration.
bì jìng zhǐ shì pò huài le yǔ lán shāng méng de guī jǔ ， ruò shì yǒu zú gòu de běn qián yǔ bǎ wò ， duì fāng yě bù kě néng bù yī bù ráo de 。
毕竟只是破坏了雨岚商盟的规矩，若是有足够的本钱与把握，对方也不可能不依不饶的。
As they saw a certain outcome of death, at this moment, an eerie spatial fluctuation suddenly arose.
dàn zhè yǒu yí gè qián tí ， jiù shì wàn wàn bù néng zhēn tóng yǔ lán shāng méng sī pò liǎn pí ， suǒ yǐ bù guǎn rú hé ， yǎn qián de tài zhēn qī xiū kěn dìng bù kě yǐ yǔn luò 。
但这有一个前提，就是万万不能真同雨岚商盟撕破脸皮，所以不管如何，眼前的太真七修肯定不可以陨落。
The space became blurry, and then the Nine Palaces Instant Sword actually pierced into thin air. The seven people, including the Elder with Long Eyebrows, all disappeared.
fǒu zé yǔ lán shāng méng xiǎng bà shǒu dōu méi yǒu tái jiē le 。
否则雨岚商盟想罢手都没有台阶了。
"What...?"
niàn jí zhì cǐ ， mèng rú yān yě shì xīn zhōng dà jí 。 xiǎng yào tí xǐng lín xuān bù kě zuò nà gǎn jìn shā jué zhī shì ， kě lái bù jí le ， jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jù lí qī rén de tóu dǐng ， yǐ bù zú sān chǐ 。
念及至此，梦如嫣也是心中大急。想要提醒林轩不可做那赶尽杀绝之事，可来不及了，九宫须臾剑距离七人的头顶，已不足三尺。
The sudden change left everyone dumbfounded. Even Lin Xuan's face was as gloomy as if it were about to rain.
shuō tā men mìng xuán yī xiàn yǐ shì fēn háo yě bù dài kuā zhāng dì 。
说他们命悬一线已是分毫也不带夸张地。
"Teleportation Technique!"
yǎn kàn jiù shì yí gè shēn sǐ yǔn luò de jié guǒ ， ér jiù zài zhè shí ， yī gǔ guǐ yì de kōng jiān bō dòng zhòu qǐ 。
眼看就是一个身死陨落的结果，而就在这时，一股诡异的空间波动骤起。
His expression became unprecedentedly serious.
kōng jiān yī zhèn mó hú ， suí hòu jiǔ gōng xū yú jiàn jū rán cì dào le kōng chù ， bāo kuò zhǎng méi lǎo zhě zài nèi de qī rén quán dōu bú jiàn le 。
空间一阵模糊，随后九宫须臾剑居然刺到了空处，包括长眉老者在内的七人全都不见了。
This was spatial law, and it could instantly transfer others elsewhere in an instant. Those who could use such a power wouldn't be the waste like these seven True Reality cultivators; they would definitely be genuine top-grade experts.
“ zhè ……”
“这……”
Although not necessarily on par with Immortal Wandering Demons or Beast Kings, they were no less than his older brother and sisters.
tū rán de biàn gù ， ràng suǒ yǒu rén chēng mù jié shé 。 biàn shì lín xuān de liǎn sè ， yì shì yīn yù dào le jí chù ， jiù gēn yào xià yǔ xiāng chà fǎng fú 。
突然的变故，让所有人瞠目结舌。便是林轩的脸色，亦是阴郁到了极处，就跟要下雨相差仿佛。
A formidable enemy!
“ dà nuó yí shù ！”
“大挪移术！”
If his assumptions were correct, this would be the most terrifying existence he had faced since embarking on the path of cultivation.
tā de liǎn sè shǐ wú qián lì de níng zhòng qǐ lái le 。
他的脸色史无前例的凝重起来了。
Previously, although he had once offended the Ice Spirit Constrictor Snake, these two females hated him to the bone. But as the True Demon Ancestor, there were still many considerations in the Spiritual Realm, and he never faced their true forms.
zhè kě shì kōng jiān fǎ zé ， ér qiě hái shì yī shùn jiān jiāng qí tā rén zhuǎn yí dào bié chù 。 néng gòu shǐ yòng zhè zhǒng shén tōng de ， jué bú huì shì tài zhēn qī xiū zhè zhǒng fèi wù ， ér shì huò zhēn jià shí de dǐng jí qiáng zhě 。
这可是空间法则，而且还是一瞬间将其他人转移到别处。能够使用这种神通的，绝不会是太真七修这种废物，而是货真价实的顶级强者。
This time was different.
suī rán wèi bì néng yǔ sàn xiān yāo wáng xiàng bǐ ， dàn jiào zhī zì jǐ de dà gē èr jiě yě bù xiāng bó zhòng dì 。
虽然未必能与散仙妖王相比，但较之自己的大哥二姐也不相伯仲地。
Being able to use the Teleportation Technique meant that the peerless powerhouse who came here wouldn't be a fragment or avatar; it would definitely be the original form itself.
qiáng dí ！
强敌！
If facing a peer like Dragon Brother Nai, could he have any chance of victory?
ruò shì suǒ liào méi cuò 。 zhè jiāng shì zì jǐ tà shàng xiū xiān zhī lù hòu ， suǒ miàn duì de zuì kě pà de cún zài le 。
若是所料没错。这将是自己踏上修仙之路后，所面对的最可怕的存在了。
Lin Xuan secretly evaluated his chances in his heart.
yǐ qián ， suī rán yě céng jīng dé zuì guò bǎo shé bīng pò 。 liǎng nǚ hèn zì jǐ rù gǔ ， dàn zuò wèi zhēn mó shǐ zǔ ， zài líng jiè bì jìng yǒu zhū duō gù jì ， zì jǐ cóng wèi miàn duì tā men de běn tǐ 。
以前，虽然也曾经得罪过宝蛇冰魄。两女恨自己入骨，但做为真魔始祖，在灵界毕竟有诸多顾忌，自己从未面对她们的本体。
The result was zero.
ér zhè yī cì bù tóng 。
而这一次不同。
Even at late-stage Transcendence Realm, the gap between top-grade experts and ordinary beings was as vast as heaven and earth.
néng gòu shī zhǎn dà nuó yí shù ， nà wèi jué shì qiáng zhě lái dào zhè lǐ de ， kěn dìng bú huì shì fēn hún huà shēn ， bǎi fēn zhī bǎi běn tǐ qīn zhì 。
能够施展大挪移术，那位绝世强者来到这里的，肯定不会是分魂化身，百分之百本体亲至。
Those who became top-grade experts were all capable of easily defeating their peers.
jiǎ rú miàn duì nài lóng dà gē zhè ge děng jí de qiáng zhě ， zì jǐ néng fǒu yǒu qǔ shèng de bǎ wò ？
假如面对鼐龙大哥这个等级的强者，自己能否有取胜的把握？
A level jump challenge?
lín xuān zài xīn zhōng qiāo qiāo héng liáng qǐ lái le 。
林轩在心中悄悄衡量起来了。
Other great powers might not know, but for Dragon Brother Nai, it was a common occurrence in his growth process.
jié guǒ shì yì diǎn yě wú 。
结果是一点也无。
Lin Xuan's mouth twitched slightly.
nǎ pà tóng yàng shì dù jié hòu qī ， dàn dǐng jí qiáng zhě yǔ pǔ tōng cún zài de chā jù què yǒu rú yún ní 。
哪怕同样是渡劫后期，但顶级强者与普通存在的差距却有如云泥。
Finally, he had attracted the attention of a peerless figure.
néng gòu chéng wéi dǐng jí qiáng zhě ， nǎ yí gè yòu bú shì néng gòu qīng qǔ tóng jiē cún zài ne ？
能够成为顶级强者，哪一个又不是能够轻取同阶存在呢？
Was he afraid?
yuè jí tiǎo zhàn ？
越级挑战？
Yes, to some extent.
bié de dà néng bù xiǎo de ， dàn nài lóng dà gē zài chéng zhǎng de guò chéng zhōng ， yě shì jiā cháng biàn fàn de 。
别的大能不晓得，但鼐龙大哥在成长的过程中，也是家常便饭的。
Lin Xuan never concealed his fear; any existence would be scared if they were in his position.
lín xuān zuǐ jiǎo yǒu xiē fā kǔ 。
林轩嘴角有些发苦。
Fear wasn't shameful; what mattered was that Lin Xuan wouldn't retreat.
zhōng yú rě lái le jué shì rén wù 。
终于惹来了绝世人物。
A formidable enemy? So what?
hài pà me ？
害怕么？
He had thought about this from the beginning. Only by making such an existence wary could he have a chance to reconcile with the Rain Mist Alliance.
ń ， yǒu yì diǎn ba ！
嗯，有一点吧！
Let them know that if pushed too far, they would be willing to fight to the death.
lín xuān cóng bù yǎn shì xīn zhōng de kǒng jù ， rèn hé cún zài yǔ zì jǐ yì dì ér chǔ ， dōu bù kě néng yì diǎn dōu bù hài pà de 。
林轩从不掩饰心中的恐惧，任何存在与自己易地而处，都不可能一点都不害怕的。
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan's expression became more resolute.
pà bìng bù kě chǐ ， guān jiàn shì lín xuān bìng bú huì tuì suō 。
怕并不可耻，关键是林轩并不会退缩。
He loudly said: "Since you've come here, why not show yourself? Your Teleportation Technique is truly impressive. Would you like to spar with me?"
qiáng dí yòu rú hé ？
强敌又如何？
Lin Xuan's voice was calm, but his tone was incredibly arrogant.
yī kāi shǐ zì jǐ jiù xiǎng guò ， yǒu kě néng miàn duì de 。
一开始自己就想过，有可能面对的。
It seemed as if he was on par with this peerless powerhouse.
zhǐ yǒu ràng zhè zhǒng cún zài gù jì ， cái yǒu tóng yǔ lán shāng méng hé jiě de zī gé 。
只有让这种存在顾忌，才有同雨岚商盟和解的资格。
The people present were all shocked and secretly admired Lin Xuan's courage.
ràng tā men míng bái ruò jiāng zì jǐ bī dé tài jí le ， yǒu běn shì tóng tā men yú sǐ wǎng pò 。
让他们明白若将自己逼得太急了，有本事同他们鱼死网破。
Buzzing whispers filled the air:
nǎo hǎi zhōng niàn tou zhuǎn guò ， lín xuān de biǎo qíng ， biàn dé jiān dìng qǐ lái le 。
脑海中念头转过，林轩的表情，变得坚定起来了。
"Teleportation Technique. In the Three Realms, only a few can master it. Could Rain Mist Alliance... be that great person arriving here?"
yáng shēng tǔ qì ：“ dào yǒu jì rán lái dào zhè lǐ ， yòu hé bì lìn sè yī jiàn ne ， dà nuó yí shù ， dào yǒu shī zhǎn dé hǎo shēng liǎo de ， kě fǒu yǔ lín mǒu qiē cuō qiē cuō 。”
扬声吐气：“道友既然来到这里，又何必吝啬一见呢，大挪移术，道友施展得好生了得，可否与林某切磋切磋。”
"I don't know either. The Rain Mist Alliance has been passed down from ancient times; there are countless late-stage Transcendence Realm experts. But even for these seven True Reality cultivators, they're just ordinary high-ranking officials. There are only three true Great Elders, each a peerless powerhouse. We just don’t know which one came."
lín xuān shēng yīn píng hé ， dàn kǒu qì què dà dé lí pǔ 。
林轩声音平和，但口气却大得离谱。
"I don't know either, but no matter who it is, he can't be matched by little Lin Xuan. If he's smart, he should surrender now."
yǐn yǐn yǔ zhè wèi jué shì qiáng zhě píng qǐ píng zuò 。
隐隐与这位绝世强者平起平坐。
"Surrender? Ha! I think that kid won't do that."
zài chǎng de rén sǒng rán dòng róng ， dōu àn àn pèi fú lín xuān de dǎn sè 。
在场的人耸然动容，都暗暗佩服林轩的胆色。
"Not doing so will only lead to mutual destruction. Don’t think defeating the seven True Reality cultivators makes you anything special; in front of those three great persons, you're just a chicken and dog. Defying them is too foolish."
wēng wēng de yì lùn shēng yě zài bù tíng chuán rù ěr duǒ ：
嗡嗡的议论声也在不停传入耳朵：
"I wonder what happens to that Lin youngster, but for us, this is definitely an opportunity."
“ dà nuó yí shù ， fàng yǎn sān jiè ， néng gòu zhǎng wò de cún zài yě qū zhǐ kě shǔ ， yǔ lán shāng méng …… nán dào shì nà wèi dà rén lái dào zhè lǐ le 。”
“大挪移术，放眼三界，能够掌握的存在也屈指可数，雨岚商盟……难道是那位大人来到这里了。”
"Opportunity? What do you mean?"
“ nǐ wèn wǒ ， wǒ yòu nǎ lǐ xiǎo de ， yǔ lán shāng méng chuán chéng zì shàng gǔ ， dù jié jí bié de gāo shǒu yì shì shǔ bù shèng shǔ ， dàn jí biàn shì tài zhēn qī xiū ， qí shí yě zhǐ suàn pǔ tōng de gāo céng bà le ， zhēn zhèng de tài shàng zhǎng lǎo ， jǐn yǒu sān gè ， měi yī wèi ， dōu shì jué shì qiáng zhě ， zhǐ shì bù zhī dào zhè yī cì ， lái de shì nǎ ge 。”
“你问我，我又哪里晓得，雨岚商盟传承自上古，渡劫级别的高手亦是数不胜数，但即便是太真七修，其实也只算普通的高层罢了，真正的太上长老，仅有三个，每一位，都是绝世强者，只是不知道这一次，来的是哪个。”
"You’re too slow. With the identity of those three great persons, they wouldn’t easily intervene. Witnessing it firsthand might bring some enlightenment; isn’t that a blessing?"
“ nǐ wèn wǒ ， wǒ yòu nǎ lǐ xiǎo de ， dàn bù guǎn shì nǎ yī wèi lái dào cǐ chù ， yòu qǐ shì xiǎo xiǎo yí gè lín xuān kě yǐ kàng héng de ， tā ruò shì cōng míng ， xiàn zài jiù yīng gāi shù shǒu jiù fù 。”
“你问我，我又哪里晓得，但不管是哪一位来到此处，又岂是小小一个林轩可以抗衡的，他若是聪明，现在就应该束手就缚。”
PS: A new week, please vote for recommendation tickets, very much needed! Thank you all!
Could it be that he was about to fall?
The thought had barely formed when the sword lights in the sky were only a few feet away from them.
There was no time left to dodge, and even if they tried to use their treasures for defense, it would still be too late.
Moreover, having witnessed the sharpness of the sword lights, even if they really did summon defensive treasures, there would likely be little use; ten out of ten chances were that they wouldn't survive.

A formidable enemy? So what?
He had thought about this from the beginning. Only by making such an existence wary could he have a chance to reconcile with the Rain Mist Alliance.
Let them know that if pushed too far, they would be willing to fight to the death.
With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan's expression became more resolute.
He loudly said: "Since you've come here, why not show yourself? Your Teleportation Technique is truly impressive. Would you like to spar with me?"
Lin Xuan's voice was calm, but his tone was incredibly arrogant.
It seemed as if he was on par with this peerless powerhouse.
The people present were all shocked and secretly admired Lin Xuan's courage.
Buzzing whispers filled the air:
"Teleportation Technique. In the Three Realms, only a few can master it. Could Rain Mist Alliance... be that great person arriving here?"
"I don't know either. The Rain Mist Alliance has been passed down from ancient times; there are countless late-stage Transcendence Realm experts. But even for these seven True Reality cultivators, they're just ordinary high-ranking officials. There are only three true Great Elders, each a peerless powerhouse. We just don’t know which one came."
"I don't know either, but no matter who it is, he can't be matched by little Lin Xuan. If he's smart, he should surrender now."
"Surrender? Ha! I think that kid won't do that."
"Not doing so will only lead to mutual destruction. Don’t think defeating the seven True Reality cultivators makes you anything special; in front of those three great persons, you're just a chicken and dog. Defying them is too foolish."
"I wonder what happens to that Lin youngster, but for us, this is definitely an opportunity."
"Opportunity? What do you mean?"
"You’re too slow. With the identity of those three great persons, they wouldn’t easily intervene. Witnessing it firsthand might bring some enlightenment; isn’t that a blessing?"
