第三千八百三十六章 举手之劳

"This is indeed troublesome." The giant tree and the Shadow Demon fell into silence.

"Humph, what to fear? I have already said that there's a way to handle it."

Seeing their morale drop, the large man in black armor with an angry expression spoke up.

"Oh, Brother Copper, do you have any hidden trump cards left? It's almost time; are we still supposed to keep this from everyone?"

The petite woman raised her eyebrows slightly and opened her mouth with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"I am not keeping secrets. This unexpected aid must be used at the critical moment as our Great Lord personally instructed."

"What, instructions from our Great Lord Void? That explains it. But what kind of means are we talking about?"

Hearing this, the woman's anger dissipated, and her expression turned to joy.

Great Lord Void is one of the six Heavenly Exiles, a true demon primordial being known as the Illusory Demon. He fell at his hands.

The Heavenly Exiles all possess abilities that can reach heaven and earth. Since he has already noticed the battle in the Windtrace Realm, a mere domain-level existence isn't something to worry about.

"Humph, Great Lord Heaven Crystal's two envoys; you should have heard of their names."

"What? The Twin Fiends of Heaven Crystal! When did they arrive in the Windtrace Realm?" The demon with the tree-like appearance exclaimed.

"These two are close attendants of our Great Lord Void. They are strong beings at the domain level, and if they assist us, a mere Spirit Realm cultivator won't be a match for them," the Shadow Demon spoke thoughtfully.

"Because of the sequential array in the Immortal City, our progress here has been slow. Our Great Lord Void is already very displeased, so he sent the two envoys from Heaven Crystal to assist us. The goal is to ensure everything goes smoothly and capture Quemu City. We didn't expect them to be needed here," the man in black armor said with a serious expression.

"Ah, I see. But what about sending the Twin Fiends of Heaven Crystal to deal with that unknown cultivator? How can we ensure success without their aid if they fail?" The petite woman spoke with concern.

"Do not worry about it; I am certain of my plan. I have prepared other means even without their help," the man in black armor said, his voice rumbling with confidence.

"Brother Copper's assurance gives us peace of mind," the petite woman responded, visibly relieved.

"I do indeed have a plan, but cooperation from several fellow daoists is needed. After all, our opponent isn't weak; we must work together to ensure Quemu City falls."

"We understand, Fellow Daoist. We are not unaware of the situation and will certainly cooperate to aid you," the other cultivators responded.

Meanwhile, far away in a mysterious valley, unknown miles distant.

The sky was blue like a wash, and the scenery around was beautiful. However, continuous cries of battle filled the air.

In front, spiritual light flashed wildly as demonic energy surged. Countless cultivators and Heavenly Exiles met head-on, continuously unleashing theirtreasure法 (note: "treasure法" is not a standard term, typically it's just "treasure" or "法宝" refers to magical treasures in Buddhist context) against each other in a fierce exchange.

Despite the large number on the Spirit Realm side, they were clearly at a disadvantage.

Lin Xuan sighed; this situation was all too familiar. The conditions in the Windtrace Realm were worse than he had anticipated after years of warfare. Both human and beast races had suffered significant losses, even with the aid of great arrays, barely holding their ground.

Although Lin Xuan didn't plan to be a savior, he wouldn't stand idly by if he encountered Heavenly Exiles. He would naturally take the opportunity to eliminate them, as his strength was enough to handle such matters effortlessly.

With one effort, Lin Xuan single-handedly turned the tide and annihilated an entire army of Heavenly Exiles.

Now facing another headache-inducing situation, Lin Xuan couldn't ignore it. With a wave of his sleeves, a stream of spiritual light emerged, transforming into a green beam that dispersed to reveal hundreds of flying swords.

"Quick!"

Lin Xuan pointed with his finger.

Instantly, the flying swords fell like rain, swarming and piercing forward.

Though the process seemed complex, it took only an instant. When the flying swords appeared, both sides realized they were surrounded by formidable enemies.

Startled, their minds raced to release their spiritual senses.

"Human cultivators!"

The Spirit Realm cultivators rejoiced at this discovery, while the Heavenly Exiles were shocked and dismayed.

Unfortunately, this realization came too late; there was no time for them to react. The flying swords seemed to have eyes, sparing human cultivators but automatically identifying Heavenly Exiles.

All Heavenly Exiles were exposed without a trace of concealment. With each sword strike, a storm of blood and gore erupted.

---

In just a few breaths, thousands of Heavenly Exiles were decimated by Lin Xuan's swift actions.

No survivors remained.

Whim…

A gentle breeze swept through the area, leaving it eerily quiet as if needles could be heard falling.

The surviving Spirit Realm beings, human or beast, wore expressions of disbelief.

Was a True Immortal here? In just a moment, they had been defeated so thoroughly that their enemies were wiped out entirely. And only one person acted.

Watching his actions, it seemed effortless. Who would have believed such an incredible scene if not for witnessing it firsthand?

The cultivators were too stunned to thank Lin Xuan immediately.

A grumpy cultivator might have been enraged, but with Lin Xuan's nature, he wouldn't dwell on such trivial matters.

With a smile, he didn't bother greeting anyone and flew off, his aura turning green as he sped away into the distance. The other cultivators only realized their mistake when he was gone.

They quickly bowed deeply in gratitude to Lin Xuan for saving them.

A life-saving favor is not something to be taken lightly.

Though they didn't know Lin Xuan's name or origin, this act of kindness left a lasting impression on everyone.

Because of Lin Xuan, they lived. Because of him, their lives continued. So when they regained consciousness, they expressed gratitude accordingly.

---

All these events were not lost on Lin Xuan's spiritual senses. A smile played at the corners of his lips as he thought about repaying kindness; these people had decent character and weren't unworthy of his help.

The distance to Quemu City wasn't far. With his speed, three days should be enough.
