儒雅男子的表情阴沉了下去，俗话说得好，杀人不过头点地，元婴修士天璇门是惹不起，可他们也并非任人揉捏的软柿子。
The refined-looking man's expression darkened. As the saying goes, killing is just a head tap to the ground; while the Immortal Core Sect Tianxuan couldn't be provoked, they were not soft targets either.
gǒu jí hái huì tiào qiáng ， qī rén tài shèn méi yǒu hǎo xià chǎng 。
狗急还会跳墙，欺人太甚没有好下场。
A desperate dog would jump over the wall. Overstepping boundaries too much wouldn’t have good outcomes.
tiān xuán mén xiū shì rén rén liǎn hán nù sè ， zì jǐ zhè biān jiāng bì yún shān ràng chū nán dào hái bù gòu me ， yǒu xiē xìng jí de yǐ jiāng fǎ bǎo líng qì qǔ chū ， dà bù liǎo yǔ zhè lǎo guài wù pīn gè yú sǐ wǎng pò 。
天璇门修士人人脸含怒色，自己这边将碧云山让出难道还不够么，有些性急的已将法宝灵器取出，大不了与这老怪物拼个鱼死网破。
The Tianxuan sect cultivators all had angry expressions on their faces. Hadn’t they already given up Biyun Mountain? Some impatient ones had already taken out their treasures, ready to fight to the death with this old monster if necessary.
qióng lǎo guài jiāng zhè yī qiè kàn zài yǎn zhōng ， zuǐ jiǎo biān què zhǐ shì lù chū jī cháo de xiào róng ， hún shēn shā qì yǒng dòng 。
穷老怪将这一切看在眼中，嘴角边却只是露出讥嘲的笑容，浑身杀气涌动。
The poor old monster watched everything with a smile of mockery at the corners of his mouth as killing intent surged around him.
kào shān lái le ， tú lǎo sān děng rén yě xìn xīn shí zú ， hēi yā yā bān de shàng pīn le jǐ bù 。 yǎn kàn qì fēn jìng bǐ gāng cái hái yào gèng jǐn zhāng le 。
靠山来了，屠老三等人也信心十足，黑压压般的上拼了几步。眼看气氛竟比刚才还要更紧张了。
Support came from behind; Tu Laosan and others were confident. They stepped forward in a black mass. The atmosphere seemed even more tense than before.
“ qián bèi xī nù ， shī xiōng gāng cái dé zuì ， qiè shēn dài tā zài zhè lǐ xiàng nǐ péi lǐ ， bì yún shān qián bèi kàn zhòng ， wǒ men ràng chū lái jiù shì ， nín yòu hé bì kǔ kǔ xiàng bī ？” què shì xú yīn lián bù qīng yí ， shuō chū le huǎn hé de yán yǔ ， zì jǐ zhè biān rén shù běn lái jiù bù zú duì fāng de sān fēn zhī yī ， rú jīn yòu lái le yī yuán yīng qī lǎo guài wù 。 dǎ qǐ lái kěn dìng shì bàn diǎn shèng suàn méi yǒu ， shèn zhì hái miàn lín zhe miè mén zhī huò 。
“前辈息怒，师兄刚才得罪，妾身代他在这里像你赔礼，碧云山前辈看中，我们让出来就是，您又何必苦苦相逼？”却是徐茵莲步轻移，说出了缓和的言语，自己这边人数本来就不足对方的三分之一，如今又来了一元婴期老怪物。打起来肯定是半点胜算没有，甚至还面临着灭门之祸。
"Senior, please calm down. My senior brother offended you just now, and I will represent him to apologize to you here. If Senior sees Biyun Mountain as something valuable, we will give it up; why must you push so hard?" Xu Yilan moved gracefully forward with a缓和的 tone.
cǐ shí cǐ kè ， shēn wèi nǚ zǐ de tā dào yào lěng jìng yī xiē de 。
此时此刻，身为女子的她倒要冷静一些的。
As women were outnumbered three to one, and an old monster of the Yuan Qi stage had joined their side, they had no chance in battle. They might even face total annihilation.
“ zhè wèi yí dìng jiù shì dà míng dǐng dǐng de yīn xiān zi le ， ń ， mí hěn huì jiǎng huà 。 xiǎng yào lǎo fū fàng guò tiān xuán mén ， yě wú bù kě ， zhǐ yào nǐ men dā yìng wǒ yí gè tiáo jiàn jiù xíng le 。”
“这位一定就是大名鼎鼎的茵仙子了，嗯，弥很会讲话。想要老夫放过天璇门，也无不可，只要你们答应我一个条件就行了。”
At this moment, she needed to remain calm as a woman.
“ qián bèi qǐng wēi 。
“前辈请微。
"Esteemed senior, you must be the famous Miss Yulin. Yes, your words are very wise. If you wish to let Tianxuan Sect off, that is fine; just agree to one condition of mine."
“ hěn jiǎn dān ， tīng shuō mí hé zhè wèi xìng zhèng de jiā huo ， nǎi shì shuāng xiū bàn lǚ ， hái shēng le yī kě ài de nǚ ér 。 jīn nián yǐ yǒu shí qī suì le ， duì me ？” qióng lǎo guài níng xiào zhe shuō 。
“很简单，听说弥和这位姓郑的家伙，乃是双修伴侣，还生了一可爱的女儿。今年已有十七岁了，对么？”穷老怪狞笑着说。
"Senior, please listen carefully.
“ bù cuò 。” xú yīn xīn zhōng yī níng ， biǎo qíng nán kàn dào le jí chù 。 zhè lǎo guài wù xiǎng yào zuò shén me 。
“不错。”徐茵心中一凝，表情难看到了极处。这老怪物想要做什么。
"It's simple. I heard that you and this Mr. Zheng are partners in cultivation, and you have a daughter. That’s her great fortune, something others can’t even ask for. Why don't you recognize your kindness?" Old Man Tu Laosan sneered with a mocking tone.
“ lǎo fū de yāo qiú hěn jiǎn dān ， jiù shì jiāng nǐ men de bǎo bèi nǚ ér ， jià yǔ wǒ wèi qiè ， fàng xīn ， lǎo fū zì rán huì shàn dài tā de ， zhè yàng ， wǒ men jiù shì yī jiā rén 。 zì rán bú huì zài wéi nán nǐ men tiān xuán mén le
“老夫的要求很简单，就是将你们的宝贝女儿，嫁与我为妾，放心，老夫自然会善待她的，这样，我们就是一家人。自然不会再为难你们天璇门了
Dugu and Xu Yilan exchanged venomous glances at the cowardly scoundrel.
cǐ yǔ yī chū ， rú yǎ nán zi yǔ xú yīn duì shì yī yǎn ， liǎn sè jiē rú tóng wàn nián hán bīng yì bān ， tā men fū qī ēn ài ， kě zhè me duō nián lái ， què jǐn shēng xià yí gè nǚ ér 。 xiàng lái shì zuò zhǎng shàng míng zhū 。 bǎo bèi dào le jí chù ， zěn me kě néng jià gěi yǎn qián zhè chǒu lòu de lǎo guài wù 。
此语一出，儒雅男子与徐茵对视一眼，脸色皆如同万年寒冰一般，他们夫妻恩爱，可这么多年来，却仅生下一个女儿。像来视作掌上明珠。宝贝到了极处，怎么可能嫁给眼前这丑陋的老怪物。
Who knew about the poor old monster's vicious and lustful nature? He would take advantage of female cultivators, and marrying him might mean being used as a cauldron.
“ qián bèi shuō xiào le ， pào ér nián jì hái xiǎo xú yīn qiǎng xiào zhe dào 。
“前辈说笑了，炮儿年纪还小徐茵强笑着道。
Even if they were willing to be concubines, they wouldn’t accept such an old and ugly face. Although Dugu was only at the Yuan Qi stage, his appearance was horrifyingly grotesque, and their daughter couldn't possibly be given away like that.
“ hái ruò shì fàng zài shì sú ， tā zhè me dà de nǚ hái zi wá ér yě gāi shēng le 。
“还若是放在世俗，她这么大的女孩子娃儿也该生了。
They couldn't agree, but clearly, the other side wasn't going to give up easily. What could they do?
qióng lǎo guài lěng xiào zhe shuō 。
穷老怪冷笑着说。
Just as they were lost in thought, a cold voice rang out: "I've seen shameless people before, but I’ve never seen someone so lacking in face. Moon, what do you think of this guy? Is he trash?"
“ pào ér bù guò yī líng dòng qī de huáng máo yā tou ， rú hé yǒu zī gé fú shì qián bèi zhè zhǒng gāo rén de rú yǎ nán zi bù gù xiōng kǒu qì xuè fān yǒng 。 fēn biàn zhe shuō 。 nǚ ér shì diē niáng de xīn tóu ròu ， jiù suàn yǔ duì fāng pīn le ， tā yě jué bú huì jiāng qí sòng rù huǒ kēng de 。
“炮儿不过一灵动期的黄毛丫头，如何有资格服侍前辈这种高人的儒雅男子不顾胸口气血翻涌。分辨着说。女儿是爹娘的心头肉，就算与对方拼了，他也绝不会将其送入火坑的。
"Master has spoken wisely; the maidservant also finds that old shameless thing disgusting and unpleasant," another light laugh echoed, filled with mockery.
shuí shuō dà dào wú qíng ， měi yí gè xiū xiān zhě ， xīn dǐ dōu yǒu zì jǐ jiān chí de dōng xī 。
谁说大道无情，每一个修仙者，心底都有自己坚持的东西。
The voice came suddenly, surprising everyone as they exchanged glances.
“ bù shí tái jǔ 。 líng dòng qī yòu rú hé 。 gēn le lǎo fū 。 wǒ zì rán huì zhǐ diǎn tí xié tā de ， cǐ nǎi tiān dà de jī yuán ， zěn me 。 nǐ men tuī sān zǔ sì ， kě shì bù yuàn yì me ？。 qióng lǎo guài de yǔ qì yuè lái yuè bù nài fán le 。
“不识抬举。灵动期又如何。跟了老夫。我自然会指点提携她的，此乃天大的机缘，怎么。你们推三阻四，可是不愿意么？。穷老怪的语气越来越不耐烦了。
The poor old monster’s face turned pale. He released his divine sense to scan the source of the sound but found nothing. This made him both furious and fearful.
“ wǒ shuō zhèng dà mén zhǔ ， qióng lǎo qián bèi kàn shàng nǐ de nǚ ér nà shì tā tiān dà de fú yuán a ， bié rén qiú dōu qiú bù lái de ， wǒ shuō nǐ men fū fù zěn me jiù zhè me bù shí tái jǔ ne ？” tú lǎo sān yě yīn yáng guài qì de kāi kǒu le ， yǔ qì chōng mǎn xìng zāi lè huò 。
“我说郑大门主，穷老前辈看上你的女儿那是她天大的福缘啊，别人求都求不来的，我说你们夫妇怎么就这么不识抬举呢？”屠老三也阴阳怪气的开口了，语气充满幸灾乐祸。
"Who dares to mock me? Don’t you fear being crushed into powder?" he snarled with murderous intent.
xú yīn fū fù wàng xiàng tā de yǎn shén mǎn shì yuàn dú ， zhè hú jiǎ hǔ wēi de bēi bǐ jiā huo 。
徐茵夫妇望向他的眼神满是怨毒，这狐假虎威的卑鄙家伙。
"Powdered to death? With your puny cultivation, hahaha. I haven't heard such an interesting joke in a long time," the clear voice returned, even more bizarre and unpredictable, making it impossible to pinpoint its direction.
fú yuán gè pì ， shuí bù zhī dào qióng lǎo guài xiōng cán hào sè ， duì nǚ xiū rèn yì cǎi bǔ ， jià gěi tā nòng bù hǎo jiù bèi dàng zuò dǐng lú 。
福缘个屁，谁不知道穷老怪凶残好色，对女修任意采补，嫁给他弄不好就被当做鼎炉。
"Come out if you have any guts; hiding like this isn’t what a hero should do."
hé kuàng jiù suàn shì zuò qiè fū fù liǎ yě jué bù yuàn yì ， suī rán shí fāng shì yuán yīng qī ， kě yòu lǎo yòu chǒu ， zhǎng xiàng lìng rén zuò è mèng ， nǚ ér zěn me néng jiāo gěi tā gěi zāo tà ne ？
何况就算是作妾夫妇俩也绝不愿意，虽然时方是元婴期，可又老又丑，长相令人做恶梦，女儿怎么能交给他给糟蹋呢？
"I don't dare call myself a hero, but at least I’m not one of those bullies who use their power to bully others. And failing to locate my whereabouts only proves that your cultivation is insufficient for someone as insignificant as yourself," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
kě bù dā yìng ， duì fāng xiǎn rán yòu bú huì shàn bà gān xiū ， zhè kě rú hé shì hǎo ？
可不答应，对方显然又不会善罢甘休，这可如何是好？
Before the words were fully spoken, a flash of green light appeared in an open space, revealing two figures: a man and a woman, both no older than their early twenties. The girl especially looked younger, her skin as white as jade, slender yet curvaceous, with a face that was strikingly beautiful. A stunning beauty.
zhèng páng huáng wú jì ， yī lěng xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù le ěr duǒ lǐ ：“ jiàn guò wú chǐ de ， kě méi yǒu jiàn guò shuí zhè me bú yào liǎn pí ， yuè ér ， nǐ shuō zhè jiā huo ， shì bú shì lā jī ？。
正彷徨无计，一冷笑的声音传入了耳朵里：“见过无耻的，可没有见过谁这么不要脸皮，月儿，你说这家伙，是不是垃圾？。
Many people were stunned, but the poor old monster’s pupils constricted as he focused on the young man beside him.
“ shào yé shuō dé yǒu lǐ ， xiǎo bì yě hěn tǎo yàn zhè lǎo bù xiū de dōng xī ， bú yào liǎn pí 。” yòu yī qīng xiào de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ lǐ ， duì qióng lǎo guài ， chōng mǎn le tiáo kǎn zhī yì 。
“少爷说得有理，小婢也很讨厌这老不羞的东西，不要脸皮。”又一轻笑的声音传入耳朵里，对穷老怪，充满了调侃之意。
Although slightly larger in appearance, the youth was equally astonishingly youthful. Wearing an evening blue robe, his ordinary looks belied the overwhelming spiritual pressure emanating from his body.
nà shēng yīn lái de tū rán ， suǒ yǒu rén jiē dà gǎn yì wài ， bù yóu de miàn miàn xiāng qù le qǐ lái 。
那声音来得突然，所有人皆大感意外，不由得面面相觑了起来。
中期元婴!
qióng lǎo guài gèng shì liǎn sè dà biàn ， tā fàng chū shén shí ， xiàng chū shēng yīn de dì fāng sǎo qù ， kě jū rán shén me yě méi yǒu xiàn 。 zhè ràng tā jīng nù zhī yú ， yǐn yǐn de yě gǎn dào yǒu xiē wèi jù 。
穷老怪更是脸色大变，他放出神识，像出声音的地方扫去，可居然什么也没有现。这让他惊怒之余，隐隐的也感到有些畏惧。
The poor old monster's face turned pale. There shouldn’t be any other old monsters of the Yuan Qi stage in Youzhou besides the Supreme Elder of Leiyun Manor. How did this mysterious expert suddenly appear?
“ shì shén me rén ， gǎn xì nòng lǎo fū ， jiù bù pà fěn shēn suì gǔ 。” tā yǎn zhōng xiōng guāng shǎn guò ， mǎn liǎn nù qì de kāi kǒu le 。
“是什么人，敢戏弄老夫，就不怕粉身碎骨。”他眼中凶光闪过，满脸怒气的开口了。
Lin Xuan’s appearance surprised and delighted the Tianxuan sect cultivators, even though they didn't recognize him. He clearly wasn't an enemy.
“ fěn shēn suì gǔ ？ jiù píng nǐ nà diǎn wēi mò dào héng ， hē hē ， lín mǒu kě shì hǎo jiǔ méi yǒu tīng guò zhè me yǒu yì si de xiào huà le 。” nà qīng lǎng de shēng yīn zài cì chuán lái ， kě zhè yī huí ， gèng jiā de gǔ guài ， piāo hū bù dìng ， shèn zhì lián fāng xiàng yě fēn biàn bù chū lái 。
“粉身碎骨？就凭你那点微末道行，呵呵，林某可是好久没有听过这么有意思的笑话了。”那清朗的声音再次传来，可这一回，更加的古怪，飘忽不定，甚至连方向也分辨不出来。
Only Xu Yilan's gaze swept over Lin Xuan as she exclaimed in surprise: "You, you are Brother Lin!"
“ yǒu běn shì de ， jiù gǔn chū lái ， tōu tōu mō mō de ， suàn shén me yīng xióng hǎo hàn ？”
“有本事的，就滚出来，偷偷摸摸的，算什么英雄好汉？”
"Ha ha, I never expected Miss Yulin to recognize me," Lin Xuan smiled.
“ lín mǒu bù gǎn wàng chēng yīng xióng ， dàn zhì shǎo yě bú shì nǐ zhè zhǒng zhàng shì qī rén de huài dàn ， hái yǒu ， xiàn bù liǎo wǒ de xíng zōng ， zhǐ néng zhèng míng gé xià xiū wèi bù gòu ， duì nǐ zhè zhǒng xiǎo jiǎo sè ， lín mǒu hái bù shǔ yú tōu tōu mō sī
“林某不敢妄称英雄，但至少也不是你这种仗势欺人的坏蛋，还有，现不了我的行踪，只能证明阁下修为不够，对你这种小角色，林某还不属于偷偷摸撕
"After so many years, your appearance hasn’t changed at all, Brother Lin. I didn't dare to recognize you either; I can hardly believe it now that you've not only condensed an Immortal Core but also become a mid-stage cultivator in such a short time. Miss Yulin felt as if she was dreaming, marveling at the shocking cultivation of this person.
huà yīn wèi luò ， zhǐ jiàn mǒu kōng kuàng de dì fāng ， qīng guāng yī shǎn ， liǎng gè
话音未落，只见某空旷的地方，青光一闪，两个
"This isn’t anything special. I’ve also successfully condensed a Dan Pill; how is your brother?" Lin Xuan’s mood was naturally good after unexpectedly meeting an old friend. Although the poor old monster was also at the Yuan Qi stage, he wasn't someone who could be easily intimidated by Lin Xuan, who dared to face even the Soul Splitting Realm. He chatted casually.
yī nán yī nǚ 。
一男一女。
"Brother," Xu Yilan's expression turned somber: "Over a hundred years ago, during the celestial anomalies, the Yin Spirit was driven out by the combined efforts of twelve states' cultivators. My brother just condensed his Dan Pill and hadn't stabilized yet when he encountered a mid-stage Ghost King on his way. To protect me, he"
kàn shàng qù dōu bù guò èr shí chū tóu nián jì ， tè bié shì nà shào nǚ ， kàn shàng qù gèng jiā de nián qīng yī xiē ， jī fū yíng bái rú yù ， shēn cái miáo tiáo què yòu bù shī fēng yú ， yī zhāng qiào liǎn gèng shì qīng lì wú bǐ ， hǎo yī wèi jué sè měi nǚ 。
看上去都不过二十出头年纪，特别是那少女，看上去更加的年轻一些，肌肤莹白如玉，身材苗条却又不失丰腴，一张俏脸更是清丽无比，好一位绝色美女。
Lin Xuan sighed. Xu Xi had once been the top disciple of Tian Shan Sect, with far superior talent to Lin Xuan himself. He couldn’t believe that someone who lived for over a hundred years was gone.
bù shǎo rén dōu biǎo qíng yī dāi 。 rán ér qióng lǎo guài de shuì kǒng què wēi suō le qǐ lái 。 tā de mù guāng quán dōu jí zhōng zài páng biān nà shào nián shàng miàn 。
不少人都表情一呆。然而穷老怪的睡孔却微缩了起来。他的目光全都集中在旁边那少年上面。
He was generous and righteous, but
suī rán bǐ nà nǚ zì kàn shàng qù shāo dà yī diǎn 。 kě tóng yàng nián qīng dé lìng rén yà rán ， yī xī qīng shān ， róng mào píng fán ， kě hún shēn shàng qù ， què yǒu qiáng dà zhì jí de líng yā sàn chū lái 。
虽然比那女字看上去稍大一点。可同样年轻得令人讶然，一夕青衫，容貌平凡，可浑身上去，却有强大至极的灵压散出来。
"Dead are the dead; Miss Xu, you should grieve less," said Lin Xuan.
yáo yīng zhōng qī ！
尧婴中期！
"You're welcome, Senior. I have one more request," Xu Yilan suddenly bowed deeply before Lin Xuan in a grand manner.
qióng lǎo guài de liǎn sè nán kàn wú bǐ 。
穷老怪的脸色难看无比。
"Don't be so formal. Do you wish me to intervene to resolve this crisis?"
zhè yōu zhōu chú le léi yún shān zhuāng de tài shàng zhǎng lǎo 。 bù yīng gāi méi yǒu yuán yīng qī lǎo guài ， zěn me huì yǒu zhè me yī wèi mò shēng gāo shǒu mào chū lái ？
这幽州除了雷云山庄的太上长老。不应该没有元婴期老怪，怎么会有这么一位陌生高手冒出来？
"I don’t dare ask Senior to fight an equal opponent; I only hope that Senior will spare my daughter and allow us to offer some compensation, Master," Xu Yilan said pitifully.
ér lín xuān de chū xiàn ， zé ràng tiān xuán mén xiū shì yòu jīng yòu xǐ ， suī rán tā men yě bù rèn shí ， kě duì fāng míng xiǎn bú shì dí rén yī biān 。
而林轩的出现，则让天璇门修士又惊又喜，虽然他们也不认识，可对方明显不是敌人一边。
Lin Xuan nodded inwardly. This woman was smart. According to common sense, this was the best solution.
wéi yǒu xú yīn de mù guāng zài lín xuān liǎn shàng sǎo guò ， què “ a ” de yī shēng lù chū le yòu jīng yòu xǐ zhī sè ：“ nǐ ，” nǐ shì lín dà gē
唯有徐茵的目光在林轩脸上扫过，却“啊”的一声露出了又惊又喜之色：“你，”你是林大哥
After all, an Immortal Core cultivator couldn’t be easily provoked; even if the poor old monster retreated today, he might still seek revenge in the future.
“ hē hē ， méi xiǎng dào mí hái rèn de wǒ 。” lín xuān wēi xiào zhe kāi kǒu le 。
“呵呵，没想到弥还认得我。”林轩微笑着开口了。
Lin Xuan smiled but didn't speak yet when the rough voice of the poor old monster interrupted: "Forget it. You Tianxuan Sect has no good things to offer; considering this friend's favor, I won’t take your daughter. Quickly pack up and leave."
“ zhè me duō nián guò qù ， lín dà gē ， bù ， qián bèi de xiàng mào què méi yǒu gǎi biàn yī sī yī háo ， yīn ér yě yǒu xiē bù gǎn xiāng rèn de ， méi xiǎng dào zhè me duǎn shí jiān ， nín bù jǐn níng jié yuán yīng chéng gōng ， ér qiě hái chéng wéi le zhōng qī de xiū xiān zhě xú yīn xiàn zài dōu gǎn jué yǒu xiē zuò mèng ， yǎn qián zhī rén de xiū liàn dù jiǎn zhí tài guò jīng shì hài sú 。
“这么多年过去，林大哥，不，前辈的相貌却没有改变一丝一毫，茵儿也有些不敢相认的，没想到这么短时间，您不仅凝结元婴成功，而且还成为了中期的修仙者徐茵现在都感觉有些做梦，眼前之人的修炼度简直太过惊世骇俗。
Xu Yilan was overjoyed and about to agree when Lin Xuan stopped her with a wave.
“ zhè bù suàn shén me ， mí bù yě níng dān chéng gōng ， zěn me yàng ， lìng xiōng hái hǎo me ？” néng yǔ gù rén yì wài chóng féng ， dù xuān xīn qíng zì rán bù cuò ， nà qióng lǎo guài suī rán yě shì yuán yīng qī xiū xiān zhě ， dàn duì lín xuān zhè zhǒng lián dǎo jī fēn hún yě gǎn yìng káng de měng rén lái shuō ， jiǎn zhí gēn lóu yǐ chà bu duō 。 gēn běn jiù bù fàng zài xīn zhōng ， páng ruò wú rén de liáo qǐ tiān lái le 。
“这不算什么，弥不也凝丹成功，怎么样，令兄还好么？”能与故人意外重逢，杜轩心情自然不错，那穷老怪虽然也是元婴期修仙者，但对林轩这种连祷机分魂也敢硬扛的猛人来说，简直跟蝼蚁差不多。根本就不放在心中，旁若无人的聊起天来了。
"Senior speaks easily, but do you think yourself an important figure? Do you ask for my permission before staying in Biyun Mountain?"
“ jiā xiōng ”。 xú yīn de liǎn shàng shǎn guò yī sī àn rán ：“ shù shí nián qián ， tiān dì yì biàn ， yīn hún zài tiān yún shí èr zhōu xiū shì de lián shǒu wéi jiǎo zhī xià 。 huī fēi yān miè ， sǎn bīng yóu yǒng ， sì chù táo cuàn ， nà shí hòu ， jiā xiōng gāng gāng níng dān ， jìng jiè shàng wèi wěn gù ， jiù yǔ yī zhōng qī de guǐ wáng xiá lù xiāng féng ， wèi le bǎo hù wǒ ， tā yǐ jīng ”
“家兄”。徐茵的脸上闪过一丝黯然：“数十年前，天地异变，阴魂在天云十二州修士的联手围剿之下。灰飞烟灭，散兵游勇，四处逃窜，那时候，家兄刚刚凝丹，境界尚未稳固，就与一中期的鬼王狭路相逢，为了保护我，他已经”
"Do you intend to fight on their behalf?" the poor old monster’s expression turned furious.
lín xuān tàn le kǒu qì ， xǔ xiè dāng nián céng shì tiān shān pài xí dà dì zǐ ， zī zhì yuǎn shèng yú jǐ ， méi xiǎng dào cái huó le yì bǎi yú suì nián jì 。
林轩叹了口气，许械当年曾是天山派席大弟子，资质远胜于己，没想到才活了一百余岁年纪。
"Not exactly. Biyun Mountain was once the residence of Lin Xuan's former red-haired friend; I just don’t like this kind of guy wanting to take over," said Lin Xuan, raising his head with a mocking smile and an even more arrogant expression.
cǐ rén háo shuǎng zhàng yì 。 kě xī ，
此人豪爽仗义。可惜，
The words caused the cultivators present to gasp in surprise. This mysterious Yuan Qi stage expert clearly didn't consider the poor old monster important.
“ wáng zhě yǐ yǐ ， xú xiǎo mèi mí yào jié āi cái shì
“亡者已矣，徐小妹弥要节哀才是
Was there any grudge between them?
“ duō xiè qián bèi guà huái 。 wǎn bèi hái yǒu yī bù qíng zhī qíng ” xú yīn tū rán yíng yíng xià bài chōng lín xuān xíng qǐ le dà lǐ lái 。
“多谢前辈挂怀。晚辈还有一不情之情”徐茵突然盈盈下拜冲林轩行起了大礼来。
Facing Lin Xuan's challenge, the poor old monster remained calm. In his memory, he had never met this person before; such fearless behavior suggested that he might indeed have extraordinary abilities.
“ xū yòng duō lǐ ， xú xiǎo mèi kě shì xī wàng wǒ chū shǒu huà jiě yǎn qián de wēi jī ？”
“需用多礼，徐小妹可是希望我出手化解眼前的危机？”
He was beginning to feel a retreat, as even an ordinary mid-stage cultivator wasn't something he could easily contend with. A wise man doesn’t fight what they can’t win.
“ wǎn bèi bù gǎn qiú qián bèi yǔ yī tóng jiē xiū shì wèi dí ， zhǐ shì xī wàng qióng qián bèi kàn zài nín fèn shàng ， néng gòu fàng guò xiǎo nǚ ， wǒ fū fù èr rén gǎn jī bù jìn ， yuàn yì zuò yī xiē bǔ cháng 。
“晚辈不敢求前辈与一同阶修士为敌，只是希望穷前辈看在您份上，能够放过小女，我夫妇二人感激不尽，愿意做一些补偿。
Alright, since you also see Biyun Mountain as valuable, I’ll give it up for now. After some hesitation, the poor old monster finally spoke weakly and turned to leave.
xú yīn chǔ chǔ kě lián de kāi kǒu 。
徐茵楚楚可怜的开口。
"Wait a moment; I didn't say you could go. In front of me, whether to stay or leave is not your choice."
lín xuān bù yóu de àn àn diǎn diǎn tóu ， cǐ nǚ dào yě cōng míng ， píng xīn lái shuō ， àn zhào cháng lǐ ， zhè yǐ shì zuì hǎo de jiě jué fāng shì 。
林轩不由得暗暗点点头，此女倒也聪明，平心来说，按照常理，这已是最好的解决方式。
The cold words echoed in his ears. He had just said this to the Tianxuan Sect leader, but now it was coming back to him.
The refined-looking man's expression darkened. As the saying goes, killing is just a head tap to the ground; while the Immortal Core Sect Tianxuan couldn't be provoked, they were not soft targets either.
A desperate dog would jump over the wall. Overstepping boundaries too much wouldn’t have good outcomes.
The Tianxuan sect cultivators all had angry expressions on their faces. Hadn’t they already given up Biyun Mountain? Some impatient ones had already taken out their treasures, ready to fight to the death with this old monster if necessary.
The poor old monster watched everything with a smile of mockery at the corners of his mouth as killing intent surged around him.
Support came from behind; Tu Laosan and others were confident. They stepped forward in a black mass. The atmosphere seemed even more tense than before.
"Senior, please calm down. My senior brother offended you just now, and I will represent him to apologize to you here. If Senior sees Biyun Mountain as something valuable, we will give it up; why must you push so hard?" Xu Yilan moved gracefully forward with a缓和的 tone.
As women were outnumbered three to one, and an old monster of the Yuan Qi stage had joined their side, they had no chance in battle. They might even face total annihilation.
At this moment, she needed to remain calm as a woman.
"Esteemed senior, you must be the famous Miss Yulin. Yes, your words are very wise. If you wish to let Tianxuan Sect off, that is fine; just agree to one condition of mine."
"Senior, please listen carefully.
"It's simple. I heard that you and this Mr. Zheng are partners in cultivation, and you have a daughter. That’s her great fortune, something others can’t even ask for. Why don't you recognize your kindness?" Old Man Tu Laosan sneered with a mocking tone.
Dugu and Xu Yilan exchanged venomous glances at the cowardly scoundrel.
Who knew about the poor old monster's vicious and lustful nature? He would take advantage of female cultivators, and marrying him might mean being used as a cauldron.
Even if they were willing to be concubines, they wouldn’t accept such an old and ugly face. Although Dugu was only at the Yuan Qi stage, his appearance was horrifyingly grotesque, and their daughter couldn't possibly be given away like that.
They couldn't agree, but clearly, the other side wasn't going to give up easily. What could they do?
Just as they were lost in thought, a cold voice rang out: "I've seen shameless people before, but I’ve never seen someone so lacking in face. Moon, what do you think of this guy? Is he trash?"
"Master has spoken wisely; the maidservant also finds that old shameless thing disgusting and unpleasant," another light laugh echoed, filled with mockery.
The voice came suddenly, surprising everyone as they exchanged glances.
The poor old monster’s face turned pale. He released his divine sense to scan the source of the sound but found nothing. This made him both furious and fearful.
"Who dares to mock me? Don’t you fear being crushed into powder?" he snarled with murderous intent.
"Powdered to death? With your puny cultivation, hahaha. I haven't heard such an interesting joke in a long time," the clear voice returned, even more bizarre and unpredictable, making it impossible to pinpoint its direction.
"Come out if you have any guts; hiding like this isn’t what a hero should do."
"I don't dare call myself a hero, but at least I’m not one of those bullies who use their power to bully others. And failing to locate my whereabouts only proves that your cultivation is insufficient for someone as insignificant as yourself," Lin Xuan said with a smile.
Before the words were fully spoken, a flash of green light appeared in an open space, revealing two figures: a man and a woman, both no older than their early twenties. The girl especially looked younger, her skin as white as jade, slender yet curvaceous, with a face that was strikingly beautiful. A stunning beauty.
Many people were stunned, but the poor old monster’s pupils constricted as he focused on the young man beside him.
Although slightly larger in appearance, the youth was equally astonishingly youthful. Wearing an evening blue robe, his ordinary looks belied the overwhelming spiritual pressure emanating from his body.
中期元婴!
The poor old monster's face turned pale. There shouldn’t be any other old monsters of the Yuan Qi stage in Youzhou besides the Supreme Elder of Leiyun Manor. How did this mysterious expert suddenly appear?
Lin Xuan’s appearance surprised and delighted the Tianxuan sect cultivators, even though they didn't recognize him. He clearly wasn't an enemy.
Only Xu Yilan's gaze swept over Lin Xuan as she exclaimed in surprise: "You, you are Brother Lin!"
"Ha ha, I never expected Miss Yulin to recognize me," Lin Xuan smiled.
"After so many years, your appearance hasn’t changed at all, Brother Lin. I didn't dare to recognize you either; I can hardly believe it now that you've not only condensed an Immortal Core but also become a mid-stage cultivator in such a short time. Miss Yulin felt as if she was dreaming, marveling at the shocking cultivation of this person.
"This isn’t anything special. I’ve also successfully condensed a Dan Pill; how is your brother?" Lin Xuan’s mood was naturally good after unexpectedly meeting an old friend. Although the poor old monster was also at the Yuan Qi stage, he wasn't someone who could be easily intimidated by Lin Xuan, who dared to face even the Soul Splitting Realm. He chatted casually.
"Brother," Xu Yilan's expression turned somber: "Over a hundred years ago, during the celestial anomalies, the Yin Spirit was driven out by the combined efforts of twelve states' cultivators. My brother just condensed his Dan Pill and hadn't stabilized yet when he encountered a mid-stage Ghost King on his way. To protect me, he"
Lin Xuan sighed. Xu Xi had once been the top disciple of Tian Shan Sect, with far superior talent to Lin Xuan himself. He couldn’t believe that someone who lived for over a hundred years was gone.
He was generous and righteous, but
"Dead are the dead; Miss Xu, you should grieve less," said Lin Xuan.
"You're welcome, Senior. I have one more request," Xu Yilan suddenly bowed deeply before Lin Xuan in a grand manner.
"Don't be so formal. Do you wish me to intervene to resolve this crisis?"
"I don’t dare ask Senior to fight an equal opponent; I only hope that Senior will spare my daughter and allow us to offer some compensation, Master," Xu Yilan said pitifully.
Lin Xuan nodded inwardly. This woman was smart. According to common sense, this was the best solution.
After all, an Immortal Core cultivator couldn’t be easily provoked; even if the poor old monster retreated today, he might still seek revenge in the future.
Lin Xuan smiled but didn't speak yet when the rough voice of the poor old monster interrupted: "Forget it. You Tianxuan Sect has no good things to offer; considering this friend's favor, I won’t take your daughter. Quickly pack up and leave."
Xu Yilan was overjoyed and about to agree when Lin Xuan stopped her with a wave.
"Senior speaks easily, but do you think yourself an important figure? Do you ask for my permission before staying in Biyun Mountain?"
"Do you intend to fight on their behalf?" the poor old monster’s expression turned furious.
"Not exactly. Biyun Mountain was once the residence of Lin Xuan's former red-haired friend; I just don’t like this kind of guy wanting to take over," said Lin Xuan, raising his head with a mocking smile and an even more arrogant expression.
The words caused the cultivators present to gasp in surprise. This mysterious Yuan Qi stage expert clearly didn't consider the poor old monster important.
Was there any grudge between them?
Facing Lin Xuan's challenge, the poor old monster remained calm. In his memory, he had never met this person before; such fearless behavior suggested that he might indeed have extraordinary abilities.
He was beginning to feel a retreat, as even an ordinary mid-stage cultivator wasn't something he could easily contend with. A wise man doesn’t fight what they can’t win.
Alright, since you also see Biyun Mountain as valuable, I’ll give it up for now. After some hesitation, the poor old monster finally spoke weakly and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment; I didn't say you could go. In front of me, whether to stay or leave is not your choice."
The cold words echoed in his ears. He had just said this to the Tianxuan Sect leader, but now it was coming back to him.
