Chapter 217 - Like Blood

The Green-haired Man offered some information, which was all very basic; he knew nothing else.

But this was quite normal, as he was just a clone, and the fact that he knew this much was already impressive.

After listening, Lin Xuan felt a tremor in his heart; he realized that the Black Dragon Sect was too powerful, as even a mere Hall Master could sweep across several countries.

Moreover, he learned that there was a branch called the Purple Demon Hall, very similar to the Purple Extreme Demon Palace.

Lately, the Netherworld Hall had been very active, and with the suspicious sect like the Purple Extreme Demon Palace, could it be that the Black Dragon Sect wanted to make a comeback?

Lin Xuan was alarmed.

If such a force were to revive, it would certainly spell trouble for the entire continent.

It wasn’t just any force, the Black Dragon Sect was no benevolent group; their revival would undoubtedly lead to a great war.

Thinking about these things now was pointless.

He might as well work on strengthening his own power first.

Lin Xuan sighed and then began to cultivate after storing the Green-haired Man away.

Five days passed in a blur.

On this day, the Bald Man arrived at the Volcano Cultivation Room with a few followers.

They asked about Lin Xuan’s cultivation time and then patiently waited outside.

The passing Martial Artists looked puzzled, with many secretly guessing that the Xing Family was waiting for some important figure.

However, when they saw the Bald Man greeting Lin Xuan, they almost bit their tongues.

For a moment, many Martial Artists were very curious about Lin Xuan’s identity.

“Spirit Sea Fourth Layer Heaven cultivation, is it so ordinary that the Xing Family would be so humble?”

Many were puzzled.

“Mr.

Lin, everything is inside, please take a look,” the Bald Man handed over a Storage Ring.

Lin Xuan swept it with his Soul Power and found all the Spirit Grass he had been searching for, nodding with satisfaction.

“By the way, do you know where in Fire State I could find High Grade Fire Attribute Spiritual Medicine?” Lin Xuan inquired.

“High-grade Fire Attribute Spirit Grass?” The Bald Man was slightly taken aback, then spoke, “Is there a piece of news, but I’m not sure if it’s true or false?”

“Speak,” Lin Xuan said in a deep voice.

“Well, there’s been a rumor going around the city these past few days, that about five hundred miles north of Flame City lies a volcano where the rosy light reaches the sky and a strange fragrance wafts in the air.

Many speculate that it might be a Supreme Elixir.”

“Rosy light, strange fragrance?” Lin Xuan stroked his chin, believing the rumor somewhat.

“Xing Datou, your Xing Family really has fallen, to grovel before some Spirit Sea Fourth Level trash.”

A mocking voice came, grating on the ears.

The Bald Man suddenly looked up, speaking coldly, “Lie Wu, how dare you disrespect Mr.

Lin, you’re courting death!”

“Mr.

Lin?

What kind of bullshit title is that?” The voice was disdainful.

Lin Xuan looked up, his gaze cold as he glanced toward the front.

There stood a Red Robed Youth with a folding fan in hand, looking disdainfully at the Bald Man and Lin Xuan.

“Spirit Sea Sixth Layer Heaven, is that the basis of your arrogance?” A slight smile played on Lin Xuan’s lips.

“Hmph, it’s enough to deal with you!

Crushing you is as easy for me as crushing an ant!” The Red Robed Youth waved his fan, speaking arrogantly.

“Lie Wu, you really are seeking death!” Xing Datou chuckled coldly, “Mr.

Lin of ours is a Second Grade Rune Master.

You better kneel and apologize!”

“Second Grade Rune Master!” The surrounding Martial Artists were stunned.

That was a status comparable to a Soul Fusion Realm Expert!

“Really?

He’s too young, isn’t he?” The crowd was somewhat incredulous.

Lie Wu was startled, then burst into laughter.

“Xing Datou, can’t you live without bragging?

If he’s a Second Grade Rune Master, then I’m a Soul Fusion Realm Expert!”

Lie Wu was incredibly arrogant, his laughter bringing tears to his eyes.

However, his laughter quickly faded, and his reasonably handsome face turned extremely unsightly.

Because he saw Lin Xuan slowly donning a silver-white robe; the two golden lines on the chest were like sharp blades piercing into his heart.

“You, you…” Stammering, Lie Wu found himself at a loss for words.

The surrounding Martial Artists also showed shocked expressions, looking at Lin Xuan with disbelief.

This must be the youngest Second Grade Rune Master they had ever seen.

“Lie Wu, apologize to Mr.

Lin now!” the Bald Man commanded coldly.

The Red Robed Youth struggled with his expression and stood frozen on the spot for a moment.

“Hmph, a Second Grade Rune Master, what’s so great about that?” A voice tinged with frivolity rang out.

The crowd was astonished; someone dared to challenge a Second Grade Rune Master—how audacious!

Xing Datou frowned, just about to scold the voice harshly, but Lin Xuan stopped him.

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, a strangely attractive man appeared.

He was dressed in purple clothes, with a handsome face and pale skin, while his lips were as red as blood.

Many wiped the cold sweat from their brows, feeling a palpitation.

“It’s someone from the Purple Extreme Demon Palace,” Zhao Xue communicated, “Third among the younger generation of the Purple Extreme Demon Palace, as red as blood!”

Lin Xuan was secretly on guard; his intuition told him that the man opposite was very dangerous.

“Lord Xue, your timing is impeccable!” Lie Wu seemed to have seen a savior and hurriedly walked over to the man known as Blood.

“Now that I am here, you will be safe!” the blood-red lips of Blood did not move, yet a yin and soft voice emitted from them.

“Hmph, what’s so great about a Second Grade Rune Master?

In front of Lord Xue, they’re nothing!” Lie Wu became arrogant again.

“Is that so?” Lin Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he stared at Lie Wu.

“Buzz!” Lie Wu’s body trembled, feeling dizzy.

The scene around him changed dramatically; countless swords pierced through his heart, and the pain was *********.

Slap!

A hand rested on him, pulling him back from the illusion.

Lie Wu was sweating profusely, his face incredibly pale, looking at Lin Xuan in horror.

“Your opponent is me.” Blood’s lips curved into an evil smile, even more vivid, as if about to drip blood.

Ding!

Bang!

Crack!

The two men’s gazes met and sparked in mid-air, causing the very void to tremble.

“Both of you, fighting is forbidden in the cultivation area, please restrain yourselves!”

A vast wave of Spiritual Power came through, as heavy as Ten Thousand Mountains, pressing down on everyone’s hearts.

“It’s a Soul Fusion Realm Expert!” someone whispered.

Lin Xuan’s eyes shone; he sensed that the power had not fully descended, but merely served as a warning.

After having crossed hands with the Great Elder of the Cang Family, Lin Xuan knew all too well how terrifying a Soul Fusion Realm Expert could be.

He did not want to engage with such a person now, nor did he have any reason to offend Flame City’s Volcano Cultivation Room.

“My apologies, I, Lin, will take my leave.”

Lin Xuan said aloud and then left with Zhao Xue.

Elsewhere, Blood’s eyes followed Lin Xuan, revealing a hint of coldness.

“Let’s go, don’t delay matters!” Blood smirked wickedly.

Lie Wu nodded, “My father has prepared everything; why not come back with me, Lord Xue?”

Blood shook his sleeves and turned into a cloud of Blood Mist to depart.

After they left, the people around breathed a sigh of relief.

“That unusual man was so frightening!” someone said while patting his chest.

“That young man called Mr.

Lin is not simple either!

A Second Grade Rune Master so young, he’s definitely a demonic talent!”

“I heard a Divine Medicine appeared in the north, do you think these people will show up?”

“Of course!” someone replied excitedly, “I need to prepare, I can’t miss out on such an opportunity!”

Having left the Cultivation Room, Lin Xuan and Zhao Xue departed the city, heading toward the volcanoes in the north.
