Chapter 24: I’ve Found a Marriage for You

With just one glance, Long Shigeng felt a chill run through his entire body. That fear, originating from the deepest part of his heart, spread out.

However, Lin Xun didn’t have much of a reaction.

A gust of wind blew past where Lin Xun stood, and he had already disappeared from the spot.

“Not good!”

By the time Long Shigeng looked up, gathering spiritual power in his eyes to see through dozens of li, he saw him standing beside that demonic sword.

Standing beside the demonic sword, Lin Xun looked down and met that pair of beautiful eyes.

At this moment, Jiang Qingshang was still holding a sword seal with both hands, releasing her sword qi with all her might, enveloping the entire Luo City to prevent the pollution of the black mud.

Fine beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead, crystal clear and emitting a faint luster.

Lin Xun couldn’t see through her veil.

But vaguely, Lin Xun felt that the beauty under the veil was definitely not ordinary. That small face was even more adorable; Lin Xun felt it might really be the size of his palm.

Especially that pair of peach-blossom eyes.

Peach-blossom eyes were different from fox eyes and almond eyes.

Peach-blossom eyes were slightly pinkish around the edges, the eye shape resembling a peach blossom, watery, with the outer corners being parallel, slightly drooping, or slightly upturned. When smiling, they curved down like a crescent moon. The black and white of the eyes were not distinct, giving a hazy feeling of being half-drunk.

Not only that, her pupils were like a glacial stream, clear to the bottom, but they also gave a sense of distance.

With just this pair of eyes alone, Lin Xun believed she could enter the Lustrous Beauty Rankings.

Not to mention, at an estimated height of 1.7 meters, her legs were long and slender. Even hidden under her skirt, their outline could be faintly seen.

Her bust was already not small, but because of her slender willow-like waist, it appeared even more prominent.

“The top of the Lustrous Beauty Rankings, truly lives up to her name. The judgment of the LSP [lecherous old perverts] is still trustworthy,” Lin Xun assessed, thinking to himself. “But, in my heart, Qing’er is still the most beautiful!”

It’s just…
What puzzled Lin Xun was, why did he have an inexplicable sense of familiarity with her?

Especially that pair of peach-blossom eyes.

However, Qing’er’s peach-blossom eyes were more of a clear charm, while hers were a cold charm like snow in its pride.

Have I seen her before?
That shouldn’t be right.

“Your Black Dragon Sect, I, Jiang Qingshang, will remember this!”

Jiang Qingshang narrowed her peach-blossom eyes and said coldly. The chill that pierced the heart’s valley was indeed intimidating.

Especially at a time like this, she wasn’t thinking about how to escape danger, but about how to settle scores later.

He had to say, such confidence was indeed rare. And at eighteen years old and already at the Jade-Pu realm, she indeed had the qualifications for it.

“Little sister, I’m not from the Black Dragon Sect. But naturally, this big sister isn’t a good person either.”

Wearing a mask, his secret technique turning him into a black shadow, Lin Xun spoke in the fake voice of a mature older sister.

When Lin Xun wanted to conceal his figure and present himself with a female voice, no one in this world could really tell he was a man.

If Miss Bi Luo had this ability back then, the number one on the rankings wouldn’t have run away carrying a train…

“This big sister was just passing by today and was in a good mood, so I’ll help you out.”

With that, Lin Xun reached out and gripped the hilt of the demonic sword!

The moment Lin Xun gripped the demonic sword’s hilt, the black swamp in the night sky trembled ceaselessly! The demonic sword’s black qi raged wildly. For ten thousand li, the aura of death could be smelled!
The reason a demonic sword was a demonic sword was that one had to suppress its demonic nature and use it for oneself! Otherwise, one would become a sword slave!

And now, the demonic sword had just awakened, and it was reappearing after a million years. One could imagine how great its ‘morning temper’ was!

Everyone thought that Lin Xun would become a sword slave in the next moment!
Indeed, Lin Xun also felt that this demonic sword was eroding his consciousness.

Good heavens, this fellow wants to turn me into its shape…

Although Lin Xun’s strength was far from its peak, his will and divine soul were tough and had not been damaged in the slightest; they were still at their peak level.

In fact, after experiencing the failure of merging with the Dao, Lin Xun’s divine soul was even stronger than before.

“Be good. At most, you’ll become my shape.”

Lin Xun smiled and tightened his grip on the demonic sword’s hilt.

“Boom!”

With Lin Xun as the center, the sonic boom of the black qi was like C4 dropped into a lake! Violent ripples spread out.

In an instant, the black mud disappeared, the ten-thousand-li aura of death also dissipated, and that demonic sword even nuzzled against Lin Xun’s embrace like an affectionate little bird.

It was a good thing the demonic sword couldn’t speak, otherwise, it might have been shouting “Daddy…” while nuzzling.

Lin Xun raised his palm and slapped this demonic sword on the head. This demonic sword actually bent before Lin Xun aggrievedly, like a little girl clutching her skirt with her head down, her head still twitching with grievance.

“Not good! Quick, go! Everyone, go!”

The moment Lin Xun completely tamed the demonic sword, the Black Dragon Sect’s Master felt that things were not good. He sacrificed a magic treasure, broke open the void, and quickly fled with his son.
Seeing their own Sect Master in such a panic, how could the others remain calm? They quickly drilled into the void rift that their Sect Master had broken open.

Unfortunately, Lin Xun swung his sword in the direction of the Black Dragon Sect! The dark night was actually torn apart by this one sword strike, and the sky broke into an early dawn!

The void was directly shattered by this simple sword strike, and the void passage shattered.

“Ah!”

The moment the entrance to the void rift shattered, a mixture of screams came out.

As for the Black Dragon Sect cultivators who survived this sword strike, they were either exiled to the void or crushed by the pressure of the void.

Those who could escape were probably only the Ascension realm Long Shigeng and the Immortal realm elder. Some Jade-Pu and Nascent Soul realm cultivators might also live if they were lucky.

And those Black Dragon Sect cultivators who had not yet entered the void rift were turned into a blood mist and absorbed by the demonic sword.

When a person picks up a knife, they must have the resolve to be cut by the knife.

Lin Xun had always believed so.

Since they wanted to sacrifice a million people to awaken the demonic sword, then they had to be prepared to die under the demonic sword.

As for the cultivators of the Violet Mist Holy Land, they were originally seriously injured from the Black Dragon Sect’s sneak attack. Although that sword qi was not directed at them, it also aggravated their injuries. They fainted directly, falling into the jungle like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

It was only a height of a hundred meters. It was impossible for them to fall to their death, at most a broken bone.

Carrying the demonic sword, Lin Xun walked step by step towards Jiang Qingshang. Jiang Qingshang did not retreat. Although her spiritual power was nearly exhausted, she still gripped the longsword in her hand, and there was not a trace of fear in her eyes!

Lin Xun even felt that she was looking for an opportunity to kill him.

Still thinking of killing me at a time like this, this woman is a bit crazy…
“Sister Jiang!”

As Lin Xun took another step, the young woman who had finally arrived with the help of Tianji City’s secret treasure gave a light shout, jumped off her handkerchief, and spread her arms to block in front of Jiang Qingshang.

A pair of almond eyes looked warily at Lin Xun, who was carrying the demonic sword. Although the young woman’s body was trembling, she still mustered the courage to stare at him.

“You little girl are also quite interesting. You’re weaker than the woman behind you, yet you want to protect her?” Lin Xun, who hadn’t planned on doing anything in the first place, said with a smile. “What’s your name?”

“T-Tianji City! Sikong… Sikong Wangxing!”

“So you’re from Tianji City. My impression of Tianji City is… wait! What’s your name… Sikong Wangxing???”

Suddenly, hearing the young woman’s name, Lin Xun froze on the spot.

Lin Xun’s heart raced violently. In Lin Xun’s mind, a scene he would never forget reappeared… He remembered, this happened before his junior sister joined the sect…
“Little Xun, you cultivate all day. I, your master, am afraid you’ll die alone. I’ve found a marriage for you. The other party’s grandfather has also agreed. When she turns sixteen, you two will get married.”

“Boring.”

“Eh, Little Xun, don’t go! Remember, that girl is called Sikong Wangxing, Sikong Wangxing of Tianji City. The Dao companion I’ve chosen for you. She’s very cute. Little Xun, wait for your master…”

…
