Amid the surging fame, Lin Xiao and the others safely returned to the Gunlong Sect.
Within the Gunlong Sect, from top to bottom, there was a burst of cheers, the entire Gunlong Sect was almost boiling over.
Jian Wudi had come to the Gunlong Sect and defeated Zhan Lan, sweeping away the Gunlong Sect’s dignity, giving Lin Xiao a show of strength.
This time, Lin Xiao was even more straightforward, with a huge gap in cultivation and age, directly killing Jian Wudi, thoroughly sweeping away the Lingjian Sect’s dignity, it was truly a great relief.
After celebrating with a group of people, Lin Xiao alone came to the peak position of Haoran Mountain.
Climbing to the top of Haoran Mountain again was no longer as difficult as before.
Moreover, the pressure from the formation on this Haoran Mountain was already rapidly diminishing, in the upper half of the mountain, the Haoran righteous qi had become extremely thin.
At the peak position, there was not even a trace of Haoran righteous qi left.
As expected, it would probably not take a month or half a month for this Haoran righteous qi to completely disappear, and the pressure from the formation would also fully dissipate.
This would affect the foundation of the entire sect master, affecting the cultivation of all Gunlong Sect disciples and elders.
Lin Xiao felt a pang of self-blame in his heart, only he knew most clearly that the Haoran righteous qi on Haoran Mountain was gradually disappearing because the Haoran Battle Pupil had disappeared, swallowed by the heavenly eye in his body.
But he was also helpless.
“Gunlong Sect, I will repay you in the future.” Lin Xiao helplessly shook his head and sighed.
Then, he raised his head again to gaze at the distant horizon, a flash of contemplative light in his eyes.
“Central Continent.” A light voice escaped from his mouth, Lin Xiao could not help but ponder.
His goal was to head to the Central Continent, go to Lingchi Island to participate in the Great Continent Spirit Controller Competition, go to the Tianji Tower to rescue his mother.
The Southeast Domain was merely a stopover.
The agreement with Zi Ling to fight Jian Wudi had ended, logically, he could prepare to head to the Central Continent, he no longer needed to concern himself with the struggles in the Southeast Domain.
However, Feng Yourain had not yet been found, so he still could not leave.
The whereabouts of the Temple of Destiny were also too difficult to find, he could only wait for the next move from the Imperial Attacker.
There was also the matter of further elevating his own strength, otherwise, even if he found the Temple of Destiny and found Feng Yourain, it would probably be very difficult to take her away.
“Yourain, I will definitely save you, Mother, I will come to find you soon.” After some contemplation, Lin Xiao lightly exhaled, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate.
This cultivation session lasted half a month.
…
Half a month later, a figure swiftly dashed over.
This figure was none other than Zhan Lan, seeing that Lin Xiao had not entered deep cultivation, he woke Lin Xiao up.
“Senior Brother Zhan Lan?” Seeing the face before him, Lin Xiao puzzledly stood up and asked: “I wonder, what has happened?”
Although he had not entered a critical phase of cultivation, if there was nothing wrong, Zhan Lan probably would not disturb his cultivation, so something must have occurred.
“The first matter is that the formation power on Haoran Mountain is about to dissipate completely, otherwise I would not have come here, but this matter is being arranged by the Grand Elder and the Second Elder.”
Zhan Lan also said directly: “As for the second matter, it concerns the Zi Family.”
“The Zi Family?” Lin Xiao frowned, a bad premonition arising in his heart.
“The Zi Family has been attacked jointly by the Yin Family, the Luo Family, and the Wen Mo, many cities have already been captured, it will not be long before the Zi Family headquarters is attacked.” Zhan Lan said straightforwardly.
Lin Xiao’s expression changed, and he immediately said: “I must go to the Zi Family.”
The Zi Family was Zi Ling’s clan, Zi Huang, Zi Jinchen and others had shown him kindness, if the Zi Family was in trouble, he naturally would not ignore it.
“The Grand Elder knew your intentions, so he sent me to call you.”
Zhan Lan said: “In fact, Zi Ling and experts from the Jiuxiao Sect have already gone to provide aid, however, with three families joining forces, the Jiuxiao Sect and the Zi Family may not be able to hold them off.”
“To prevent any mishaps, our Jiuxiao Sect also plans to send people to support and show goodwill to the Zi Family.”
“Of course, it is mainly because of your relationship with Zi Ling that the sect made this decision.” Zhan Lan said truthfully.
Everyone knew about the relationship between Zi Ling and Lin Xiao, and Zi Ling was also the one who would replace the Saint Spirit Vein, in the future, she was most likely to marry Lin Xiao, at that time, the Zi Family and the Gunlong Sect would be united by marriage.
If the Zi Family was in trouble, the Gunlong Sect naturally would not stand by.
Lin Xiao could also understand the sect’s intentions, with his personality, if the Zi Family was in difficulty, he definitely would not stay away.
And with his talent, even if he went alone, the sect definitely would not feel at ease.
It was better to directly show aid and befriend the Zi Family.
Furthermore, Lin Xiao could also guess that it was related to the matter of replacing the Saint Spirit Vein.
But he did not think too much about it.
In any case, the sect was considering things for him.
Lin Xiao was about to express his gratitude when he saw Zhan Lan continue: “You are a Reverse Emperor genius, a once-in-a-millennium rarity, the sect making this decision for you is no exception, no need for excessive polite words, come with me now, there are already eight elders waiting below.”
“Eight elders?” Lin Xiao was slightly shocked, the Gunlong Sect was sending eight elders to go with him?
“Good!” He immediately nodded, and Lin Xiao dashed down with Zhan Lan.
After leaving Haoran Mountain, Lin Xiao and Zhan Lan arrived at a mountain peak.
On this mountain peak, there were ten figures, among them two were Yun Jing and Zhong Moyang, the other eight elders, Lin Xiao had only seen half of them.
But he was certain that these people all had cultivations at the ninth level of Martial Monarch realm, and for a few, he could not even probe their depths.
“Grand Elder, Second Elder, fellow elders!” Lin Xiao cupped his hands towards the group and saluted.
Nodding, Yun Jing spoke: “The matter, you must already know about it, these days, the Southeast Domain has been somewhat unsettled, not only the Zi Family, many other families have also started wars, you must be careful on this trip.”
Lin Xiao nodded.
“These are two Martial Emperor battle seals that we two refined recently, take them with you.” In Yun Jing’s hand, he took out two special tokens.
“Thank you, Grand Elder and Second Elder!” Lin Xiao’s eyes brightened, and he quickly received the Martial Emperor battle seals.
Adding Dongfang Kaiyuan’s Martial Emperor battle seal, he now had three in hand, unless he encountered a true Martial Emperor, probably no one could take him down.
Of course, a Martial Emperor battle seal required a huge amount of effort from a Martial Emperor, so Lin Xiao was naturally very grateful to the two.
“This time, the eight elders and Zhan Lan will go with you, all eight elders are powerhouses at the ninth level of Martial Monarch realm, two have already been at the ninth level for a hundred years, and two are half-step Martial Emperors.”
Yun Jing said: “With them accompanying, we feel more at ease.”
Hearing this, Lin Xiao was shocked in his heart, two powerhouses who had been at the ninth level of Martial Monarch for a hundred years, two half-step Martial Emperors, plus four ordinary ninth-level Martial Monarch elders, this lineup was too formidable, was it not?
“Thank you, fellow elders, for your assistance.” Lin Xiao quickly cupped his hands towards the group of elders and politely saluted.
“Hehe, a Reverse Emperor genius, truly something unseen before, to protect the Dao for a Reverse Emperor genius once, that is our honour.” An elderly man with white hair laughed.
“We old bones, stepping into Martial Emperor is already hopeless, if we do not go out and about, we will probably just sit around waiting to die.” Another elder said.
“Witnessing the growth of a Reverse Emperor genius, others may not even have this opportunity.” Another elder also laughed.
“In not long, you will surpass us, at that time, if we want to help, we probably will not have the chance.” Yet another elder said.
The expressions of several people all appeared very calm, not minding at all being dispatched, on the contrary, they were more willing to travel with Lin Xiao.
Then, after instructions from Yun Jing and Zhong Moyang, Lin Xiao, along with the eight elders and Zhan Lan, boarded a Yutian Boat, activated it, and set off for the Zi Family.
