Lin Lei felt aggrieved as well. “Father, Desolate Martial headed to the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain because of a Dao child that served him. It was just a coincidence that he saved us…”
“You’re still quibbling!”
Lin Zhan’s expression darkened. Suddenly, he reached out and pulled out the halberd in front of the bed!
That action shocked Lin Lei and Lin Luo.
Even Fairy Ling Long was shocked. She hurried forward and stood in front of Lin Lei, hollering, “Lei’er, admit your mistake!”
“Even if Desolate Martial didn’t do it to save you and your sister, you shouldn’t have left him there alone. Since I gave you the teleportation jade talisman, you could have brought him back with you.”
When Lin Lei saw that his father was truly enraged, he replied hurriedly, worried that the latter’s injuries would be aggravated, “Father, I know my mistake now. Please don’t be angry.”
Fairy Ling Long chid in as well, “Don’t get anxious. After all, we don’t know for sure if Desolate Martial is dead. There might still be hope.”
“What hope can there be?”
Lin Zhan’s anger did not subside as he pointed at Lin Lei. “He also said that Immortal Kings of the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain have already sensed it. By the ti the Immortal Kings descend, how will Desolate Martial who’s only at the Perfected Immortal realm survive?!”
“Even if Desolate Martial has a treasure like the teleportation jade talisman, it’ll be difficult for him to release it with Immortal Kings present!”
Everyone present fell silent—all of them knew that Lin Zhan was not wrong.
Lin Luo reached out and stroked Lin Zhan’s back gently, comforting him carefully, “Father, perhaps Desolate Martial will be blessed by the heavens and might just survive.”
Fairy Ling Long’s heart skipped a beat. “I thought of sothing. The appearance of Desolate Martial should be the variable in my divination. If even my Six Ren Divine Calculation can’t divine his existence, there must be sothing extraordinary about him.”
At that thought, she took out a ssenger talisman from her storage bag and said in a deep voice, “Go check out news of Desolate Martial in Langfeng City of the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain. Report to imdiately if anything happens.”
For an Immortal Kingdom like the Battle Kingdom, there was a group of cultivators who specialized in gathering information from all over the place.
Fairy Ling Long looked at Lin Zhan begrudgingly and sent a voice transmission with her spirit consciousness, “Lei’er did sothing wrong in a mont of desperation because he was worried about you. Why are you so angry?”
Lin Zhan harrumphed coldly. “He was saved by that person but he wasn’t grateful at all. Instead, he ca back alone. If Desolate Martial were to die in Langfeng City, it would be indirectly caused by Lei’er. For such a grave sin, even if I…”
“Even if you?”
Fairy Ling Long interrupted him. “Why? Are you going to kill Lei’er as compensation? Notwithstanding the fact that there’s still no news of Desolate Martial, even if he died, things don’t have to co to this.”
Lin Zhan remained silent.
After a while, Fairy Ling Long sent a voice transmission with her spirit consciousness once more and asked in confusion, “I rember that when Su Zimo ascended, there were two true bodies.”
“However, one of the true bodies with the Dragon Phoenix bloodline was destroyed by King Yun You and only the Creation Green Lotus was spared. What’s up with Desolate Martial?”
Lin Zhan frowned. “I’m not sure either. From the looks of it, Desolate Martial seems to be much stronger than Su Zimo’s Creation Green Lotus.”
Fairy Ling Long said, “Yes, he’s now the Sect Master of the Fiend Domain’s Tianhuang Sect. Even Feng Cantian is under his lead.”
At the ntion of Feng Cantian, Lin Zhan’s expression softened and he revealed a smile. “To think that Brother Feng isn’t dead but was imprisoned in the Great Jin Immortal Kingdom instead. Now that he’s free, he advanced to the Grotto-heaven realm in the Fiend Domain and beca an Immortal King!”
At that point, Lin Zhan sighed softly in a dejected manner. “It’s been a long ti since we last t. Unfortunately, my injuries have yet to recover and I can’t leave.”
“Of those old friends who ascended from Tianhuang Mainland back then, there’s probably only the three of us left after so many years, sigh.”
Fairy Ling Long consoled him, “Thankfully, Su Zimo and other promising descendants of Tianhuang Mainland are now here. They might be able to accomplish what we have yet to.”
“I hope so.”
Lin Zhan replied.
Suddenly, as though he recalled sothing, a cold glint flashed through Lin Zhan’s eyes as he sent a voice transmission, “Right, why was it such a coincidence back then that King Yun You appeared to kill Su Zimo just as he was ascending?”
“King Yun You definitely doesn’t have the ability to do so.”
Fairy Ling Long said in a deep voice, “An expert must have guided him from behind the scenes and used a supre secret skill to divine the heavenly secrets. He calculated the ti and landing spot of Su Zimo’s ascension and thereafter, tried to murder the latter.”
“Even I can’t achieve that level of precision. I rely vaguely divined that Su Zimo had a calamity and hence I was slightly late to arrive back then.”
Lin Zhan asked directly, “Who in the Heavenly World can do this?”
“That person might not even be from the Heavenly World.”
Fairy Ling Long said, “The trichiliocosm is vast and boundless with countless extraordinary people. There are many people who can do this. In the Heavenly World, there is indeed soone who can do this, but…”
“But what?”
Lin Zhan asked.
Fairy Ling Long said, “Apart from King Yun You, there was a second person who tried to kill Su Zimo. He was unfamiliar and not the person from the Heavenly World I was referring to.”
“Could he have used so secret skill to change his appearance?”
Lin Zhan asked.
Fairy Ling Long shook her head. “No, our cultivation realms are similar. If he was using a secret skill, I would have sensed it.”
Lin Zhan said deeply, “In that case, the person beside King Yun You should be from outside the Heavenly World.”
Fairy Ling Long seed to be in deep thought as a look of worry flashed through her eyes. “What I’m worried about right now is another situation.”
“What do you an?”
Lin Zhan’s expression changed—he could tell that Fairy Ling Long was implying sothing.
Just as Fairy Ling Long was about to explain, a shout sounded from outside the hall. It was anxious and trembled slightly, as though sothing major and shocking had happened!
“Reporting…”
“There’s news from the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain!”
Everyone in the chamber was invigorated.
Fairy Ling Long, Lin Lei and Lin Luo stood up one after another with nervous expressions.
Lin Lei was even more uneasy.
He knew that Desolate Martial was most likely dood.
Once they received the news, he would definitely be severely punished by his father!
In the blink of an eye, a guard charged into the hall and panted, bowing to Lin Zhan and the others.
“There’s no need for formalities! How’s Desolate Martial?”
Fairy Ling Long asked directly.
The guard said, “Desolate Martial has already left Langfeng City!”
“What?”
Lin Lei’s heart skipped a beat as he asked in disbelief, “He left alive?”
The guard nodded. “It’s said that an Immortal King descended at that ti. Desolate Martial withstood an attack from the Immortal King and killed the City Lord of Langfeng City, Song Xuan, right under his nose!”
Psst!
Lin Lei and Lin Luo gasped in shock.
The guard continued, “Thereafter, more than ten Immortal Kings descended. Desolate Martial summoned the Hell Suppression Tripod and broke through the void, entering a spatial tunnel to leave the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain.”
Lin Lei and Lin Luo were dumbfounded by now.
Desolate Martial managed to withstand a single attack from an Immortal King and even kill Song Xuan right in front of the latter?
Thereafter, he escaped from under the noses of more than ten… Immortal Kings?
Sothing like that happened after the two of them left?
