Zhu Tian: Becoming a Sword Master from Martial Arts

Chapter 273

Although she wanted to teach Lin Dong a lesson, in fact, Mu Lan was very measured in her actions. She mostly just made Lin Dong feel embarrassed and lose face, but she didn't really use any brutal force.

Anyway, there are only them here, and no one from the Gu family came with them, so there is no need to care about face.

Then, after giving some pointers on Lin Dong's practice, Mu Lan did not linger for too long and left directly. However, before leaving, Mu Lan looked at Lin Dong meaningfully and said with a smile.

"Boy, practice well. Although I have passed this level, there are still others waiting for you."

Looking at Mu Lan's disappearing figure, Lin Dong had a bad feeling in his heart. He always felt that he would have to suffer some pain in the next trials.

Yan, who had been hiding in Lin Dong's body, did not say a word. As the spirit of the ancestral stone, Yan was very sensitive to auras. Naturally, he knew that when Mu Lan pointed his finger at Lin Dong, there were many people's intentions behind it.

Yan was very welcome to this. Lin Dong's journey in the Chaos Demon Sea had been too smooth, so he had to find some trouble for Lin Dong to make him more motivated. Otherwise, he would easily become lazy.

Lin Dong, who had been beaten up, lost all his high spirits. With a strong will in his heart, he took Xiao Diao and others and plunged into the Tianlei Sea.

A few days later, on a huge island in the Tianlei Sea, Lin Dong and his group, who had abandoned the Sea-Suppressing Black Whale, were flying rapidly towards the center of the island.

In the center of this island, there is an ancient city. At this moment, this ancient city is once again filled with the noisy voices of people.

The moment Lin Dong, Gu Yan, Lin Qingtan and others set foot in the city, Lin Dong noticed that the silver tower in his Qiankun bag made a strange movement. Following the guidance of the special fluctuations, Lin Dong suddenly looked up and looked towards the only remaining stone tower attic in the city.

On the most eye-catching attic, there were two figures sitting peacefully at this moment, and the fluctuation came from those two people, or rather, from the silver towers carried by those two people.

After determining the location, Lin Dong did not hesitate and directly led Mu Lingshan, Xiao Diao and others to the location of the attic.

“Haha, I didn’t expect that the owner of the third silver tower key would come from the Tianshang Sea so quickly!”

Just as Lin Dong and the others took a step forward, they heard a faint laugh coming from above the attic. With the blessing of Yuanli, it quickly spread to the surroundings.

As the words fell, Lin Dong could clearly feel that the atmosphere of the entire city was instantly ignited, and the noise all around surged like a tide.

You know, there are three silver towers as the key to open the Thunder Emperor's Cave Mansion. Only when all three silver towers are gathered together can the Thunder Emperor's Cave Mansion be opened.

Two of them fell into the hands of Jiuyoumen and Xuantian Palace respectively. These two major forces were very famous in the Chaos Demon Sea. Most people didn't dare to target them, so they naturally set their sights on the third silver tower.

In addition, the Tianlei Sea is extremely far away from the Tianfeng Sea. Not only does the news from the Tianfeng Sea arrive very slowly, but many powerful people entered the Tianlei Sea as soon as the two silver towers received the news. They are not sensitive to news from the outside world.

It was only through the auction in Tianshang Sea that we learned that the owner of the third silver tower was a very young family head, a little-known ancient family.

Although no one knows how the Gu family managed to win the silver tower, it is obvious that compared with powerful forces like the Jiuyou Sect and the Xuantian Palace, this Gu family is undoubtedly much easier to bully.

Therefore, after hearing someone point out that the third silver tower had arrived at this place, countless powerful men's eyes became excited, and they were eager to speak to the man who had spoken earlier on the stone tower.

"Brother Pang Hao, I don't know who this person is. I have to trouble you to invite him out. After all, opening the cave is everyone's common wish. How can we ruin everyone's business because of him?"

In mid-air, a sturdy man with a big knife on his back flew up and clasped his fists towards the man in black, Pang Hao, and said something. However, the sturdy man spoke politely, but his face full of scars did not show that he was a good person.

Many people around recognized him. Firstly, the man had a very fierce and distinctive look. Secondly, the strong man was also strong and famous, so he was easy to recognize. Many people responded immediately.

"Yes, please trouble the friends of Jiuyoumen to invite this friend out."

Everyone said please, but they couldn't hide the greedy looks in their eyes. After all, compared to the two behemoths, Xuantian Palace and Jiuyou Gate, the remaining unknown Gu family seemed to be the easiest to control.

Lin Dong, who had just entered the city, listened to the sounds coming from all around and his face turned cold. Gu Yan, who was standing beside him, stared at Pang Hao in the distance with murderous eyes.

Now, Gu Yan, not knowing whether it was because of Lin Dong's help, had made rapid progress in her cultivation and had also entered the Great Perfection State of Shengxuan Realm. As for Gu Mengqi, whose strength was superior to hers, she had also reached the Perfection State of Shengxuan Realm.

Lin Qingtan wrinkled her nose slightly and muttered unhappily.

"Brother Lin Dong, I want to beat him up!"

Unlike Lin Dong who was cautious, Lin Qingtan was much more domineering and direct in his actions because he had Bo Xuan and the entire Dark Palace protecting him from behind. After all, the Dark Palace had the background, with three warriors of the Samsara Realm in charge. Even the powerful clans of the demon clan and the sea beast clan had to give them some face.

"No hurry, let him jump for a while. Then, Master Diao will tear him apart with his own hands. You must be tired of living by scheming against Master Diao!"

Before Lin Dong could say anything, Xiao Diao responded in a cold tone.

He is no longer the reckless Yanxia Amiao of the past. As an adult celestial demon marten who is married and waiting to have children, he has to take care of his family. Therefore, the little marten listened to Gu Mengqi's advice, kept a low profile, and carefully entered the Tianlei Sea. Finally, he waited until the end to compete for the reappearance of the Thunder Ancestral Talisman.

First show the enemy your weakness and make them think that Xiao Diao is not here. When these people relax their vigilance and forget about Xiao Diao, you can effectively prevent these people from uniting to deal with Xiao Diao.

Doing so would not only greatly increase the probability of seizing the Thunder Ancestral Talisman, but would also be safer. After all, Xiao Diao would have no problem protecting himself, but not everyone in their team had the combat power of the Wheel-Turning Realm, and being besieged by a group of people would still be very dangerous.

As a result, Xiao Diao, who always behaved arrogantly, finally kept a low profile for once and walked in quietly, but was pushed to the forefront by that damn guy. He was simply courting death.

In fact, Pang Hao did this because he had his own ideas, or it could be said that the Nine Nether Sect had its own considerations. As the owner of the third silver tower and the third person to arrive, Lin Dong, Xiao Diao and the others were not aware that the silver tower could guide each other at close range, but Pang Hao was very clear about it.

Moreover, unlike the group of casual cultivators around who knew little about the situation, the Jiuyou Sect had good intelligence. At least, they knew something about the Gu family. A small family that could make Qiankun Cave Heaven and Xiefeng Cave Heaven give in voluntarily must be something strange.

Therefore, when the rumor came out that the two beauties of the Gu family were getting married at the same time, the Jiuyou Sect naturally believed it. Moreover, Xiao Diao's strength should be as strong as the rumor said, enough to rival the Wheel-Turning Realm.

Therefore, Jiuyoumen directly regarded the Gu family as the biggest competitor of this trip. Regardless of whether Xiaodiao came to Tianlei Sea or not, Jiuyoumen had already made plans to eliminate the Gu family from the beginning.

In order to kick Lin Dong, Xiao Diao and the others out first, Jiuyou Sect even contacted Xuantian Palace in advance and formed a secret alliance to deal with the Gu family together, thus ensuring that by then, there would be no competitors in the cave of the reincarnation masters that would deter them.

"Haha, you must be the new patriarch of the famous Gu family, right? I never thought that the rumors would be true. Not only did the Gu family let a person from another family take charge of the family, but they also let a young man who was not even at the Shengxuan realm take charge of the power. It's really eye-opening!"

Pang Hao said this with a smile, but his tone was full of ridicule towards the Gu family and disdain towards Lin Dong. As Pang Hao's voice fell, countless people followed Pang Hao's gaze and looked at Lin Dong and his group.

Facing the countless gazes around him, Lin Dong's eyes flashed with a bit of coldness. This Pang Hao's methods were indeed effective. With one move, he made them the target of public criticism. It even directly angered him, and they wanted him to fight to the death with them.

One has to admit that Lin Dong was indeed irritated. It wasn’t just anyone, but the three giants of Yuan Sect who made Lin Dong have to endure or even retreat after being irritated.

At least, the Pang Hao in front of him was not qualified, so the price for the other party to anger him would be very high, especially since Lin Dong was very angry at this moment!

"Your Excellency has a good method!"

Under those fiery and greedy gazes, the anger on Lin Dong’s face gradually withdrew, and he even revealed a smile and praised softly.

"Haha, Master Gu is also one of the owners of the Silver Tower Key. Why don't you come up and sit down with us so we can discuss the matter of opening the cave?"

Pang Hao said with a faint smile, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and out of the corner of his eye he was observing the strong men around him who were already beginning to stir.

Although they did not know the true strength of Lin Dong and his group, but at least it seemed that Lin Dong and his group were not easy to mess with. Each of them had a strength above the Shengxuan realm, and most of them were at the Shengxuan realm or above.

Such a team of seven people is obviously not a bone that can be easily gnawed. They all want to wait for others to go up and consume some energy before they go up to fight for it.

At this time, we need to wait for someone to take the first step to break the deadlock. By then, this group of greedy and powerful people will surely rush forward one after another, for fear that they will be snatched away if they are too late.

The woman in white sitting next to the black-clothed young man Pang Hao did not make any expression. She just picked up the teacup and took a sip silently. However, her gaze also stayed on Lin Dong, and there was some intriguing depth in her eyes.

Lin Dong did not immediately respond to Pang Hao's invitation, but glanced at the people around him with disdain, then sneered and said.

"You think you can deal with me with these people? You are a dreamer. It's a pity that you don't have this kind of martial arts. Otherwise, you would be invincible!"

"Pfft!"

The woman in white couldn't help but laugh when she heard that. She then stood up slowly, glanced at Gu Yan, Gu Mengqi and Lin Qingtan with her beautiful eyes, and spoke softly.

“I never thought that the famous Lin Dong, the head of the Lin family, would be so sharp in his words. This surprised Xiang Xuan.”

"Why, Miss Liu Xiangxuan from Xuantian Palace can't sit still either, do you want to join in the fight?"

Lin Dong was furious and was confronting everyone he saw. He didn't care about having one or two more opponents. Ever since Xiao Diao showed up, they had already had many opponents.

It is estimated that those powerful people in the Death Profound Realm have already formed a secret alliance, and these fools in front of them who are unaware of the truth have also been used.

"Haha, Master Lin, you are joking. This is a matter between you men. Xiang Xuan is just a weak little girl. I dare not interfere. Otherwise, I will be torn to pieces by you."

Liu Xiangxuan laughed sweetly, a sound like a silver bell, which made Pang Hao's face change slightly. He stared at Liu Xiangxuan beside him with a bit of coldness. This was different from what they had discussed before.

But before Pang Hao opened his mouth to ask, Liu Xiangxuan took the initiative to move away from him and expressed her opinion with a smile.

"As for today's matter, I, Xuantian Palace, will give Patriarch Lin a favor and not get involved. However, I would like to ask Patriarch Lin to give Xiang Xuan a favor and answer some of her questions afterwards, okay?"

answer the questions?

Lin Dong was suspicious, always feeling that Liu Xiangxuan's intentions were not pure. However, Xuantian Palace had stated that it would not interfere in their fight. Although it might seem like the fisherman was the winner while the snipe and the clam were fighting, it was good news for Lin Dong. At least the pressure would be much less.

However, even so, Lin Dong did not agree outright. The main reason was that Liu Xiangxuan's attitude was a little abnormal, and who knew what the so-called "answer some questions" would be.

“I would like to thank Miss Liu, but Lin Dong may not know all of Miss Liu’s questions, nor may he be able to answer them. If I cannot answer them, I hope Miss Liu will not blame me.”

"Don't worry, Xiang Xuan won't embarrass Patriarch Lin. These are all news about Patriarch Lin's family. They are not secrets. Patriarch Lin will definitely be able to answer them."

Liu Xiangxuan smiled faintly and responded softly. She was not a reckless man or a fool like Pang Hao. To be able to become the Holy Maiden of Xuantian Palace, Liu Xiangxuan was an extremely smart woman.

Liu Xiangxuan could even sense that the purpose of Xuantian Palace Master choosing her to be the Saint was not pure, so she had to find another backer.

And what backer could be compared to the Sword Saint who has friends all over the world and is known as the strongest person in the four mysterious realms?
Others may not know, but after receiving the news, Liu Xiangxuan studied it carefully. The strength of the Sword Saint is terrifyingly strong!
