Martial Arts, the Fairy's Cultivation

The words of the white-clad fairy startled everyone. No one expected that her first words after appearing would be directed at Yue Shan, indicating that she was up to no good.

"Your Mightiness......"

Mu Zi stood there, and although her oppressive aura was not released to those present, it already made them somewhat breathless. Yue Shan, who was the first to bear the brunt, was trembling with fear, as if he were facing a chilling, ancient iceberg, and almost couldn't help but kneel down in the face of her imposing presence.

Yue Shan was startled to realize that the person in front of him was someone he could not afford to offend. If she harbored murderous intent at this moment, he would probably die without a burial place in an instant!

"I wonder how I, Yue, have offended you. Please tell me."

Mu Zi calmly withdrew her gaze, turned to look at Lin Dong behind her, and spoke in a calm and unperturbed manner, as if stating a fact.

"He is mine. Anyone who touches him is my enemy."

As soon as she finished speaking, the silence was so profound that you could hear a pin drop. Countless gazes in the room instantly focused on the man behind the white-clad fairy, their eyes flashing with various emotions, and everyone fell silent without prior agreement.

Feeling somewhat uncomfortable under the gaze of countless eyes, Lin Dong was just then when the little sable's teasing cry echoed in his mind.

"Good heavens! That woman, as cold as ice, was actually backing you up. I never knew you had such abilities, kid. I really underestimated you..."

Just as the little sable was marveling at the sight, it noticed that the white-clad woman's gaze was extremely deep. Her eyes, like an ancient, icy pool, seemed to be able to see through everything, making the little sable suspect that she had sensed its presence. It immediately felt a chill in its heart and dared not utter another word.

How terrifying...

"You've finally emerged from seclusion."

Looking at the stunningly beautiful woman before him, Lin Dong was not as optimistic as Xiao Diao. He was self-aware and did not believe that he had much charm to make such a goddess fall in love with him through a chance encounter.

The other party's move this time is most likely for other reasons.

But no one else knew the complicated entanglement between the two. When the fairy turned her head, it became the invisible proof of the declaration she had just made.

Mu Zi shifted her gaze from Lin Dong and said calmly, "If any of these people have ever bullied you, tell me, and I will take action."

Such a protective attitude immediately made everyone feel uneasy. Looking at the unfathomable white-robed fairy, even those who had a good relationship with Lin Dong couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

As for the Blood Wolf Gang and Yue Shan, needless to say, they were all terrified, fearing that if Lin Dong nodded, the woman would slap them to death.

"Wait! This is all a misunderstanding!"

Yue Shan was so frightened that he completely abandoned the demeanor of a top expert in Yan City. His muscular, rugged face forced a fawning expression as he earnestly explained:

"Brother Lin Dong, I, Yue Shan, have never intended to target you. Everyone knows that I, Yue Shan, have always believed in making money through harmony. We're all from Yan City; we'll run into each other again soon. Why fight like this?"

"If the Lin family wants to expand their influence in Yan City, the Blood Wolf Gang will be the first to support them. Anyone who dares to cross the Lin family is disrespecting me, Yue!"

......

Looking at the burly man's obsequious manner, Xia Wanjin couldn't help but twitch his lips. That old bastard Yue Shan really knew how to change his tune depending on the wind. Just now he wanted to force Lin Dong to hand over the opportunity, but now he was calling him "little brother" with a very respectful attitude.

As the largest underworld force in Yan City, the Blood Wolf Gang has been bullying and oppressing people for years. The name of Yue Shan, the Mountain Breaker, was earned through real killing. When did they start talking about making money through harmony?

His initial arrogance followed by his later obsequiousness is laughable.

However... Yue Shan seemed to feel that his sincerity was not enough. Seeing that Lin Dong had not yet expressed his opinion, he looked at the back of the Blood Wolf Gang and his gaze fell on a young man and a young woman.

"Yue Feng, Yue Ling, come and pay your respects to Brother Lin Dong. You two became acquainted after what happened on the arena..."

Two young figures at the Heavenly Origin Realm looked at Yue Shan in astonishment, pointing at themselves: "Father, should we worship too?"

"right."

"Alright, Chief Yue, let's skip this." Seeing the two siblings hesitating as they were about to step out, Lin Dong couldn't help but speak up. If it had been any later, things might have taken a strange turn.

"Since the Blood Wolf Gang is willing to make money peacefully, it would seem that I, Lin Dong, would be intolerant if I continued to hold a grudge over the previous minor friction."

"I just hope Chief Yue remembers what I said today and doesn't try to trip up the Lin family behind their backs, otherwise..."

Yue Shan repeatedly assured him, his righteous and earnest attitude making anyone who didn't know better think that Lin Dong was his long-lost relative.

Seeing this, Lin Dong also felt a little bored. "Chief Yue, I still prefer your unruly attitude from earlier."

"I heard that Wei Tong of the Blood Robe Sect offended the Lin family and even agreed to a life-or-death duel next month. If Brother Lin Dong speaks up, I can step in to resolve this feud," Yue Shan said, his eyes gleaming.

In terms of relationships, Wei Tong and the Blood Robe Sect were still subordinate forces of his Blood Wolf Gang. Logically, Yue Shan should have sided with the former, but who could blame him when Wei Tong had a powerful backer for the life-or-death duel? He could only consider himself unlucky.

But Lin Dong shook his head: "No need. I will resolve the grudges of the Blood Robe Sect myself."

Lin Dong's tone carried a hint of killing intent. He was no saint; anyone who threatened the Lin family was better off dead. A life-or-death duel with Wei Tong on the arena suited his purposes perfectly.

and......

Lin Dong glanced at the white-clad figure standing quietly before him, then looked away immediately. He knew perfectly well that the reason Yue Shan and the others were behaving this way was not due to his own strength.

Although it feels good to have someone backing you up, Lin Dong doesn't want to stand behind a woman—he's not the kind of gigolo who likes to live off women.

Moreover, is there really no price to pay for this gigolo lifestyle?

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased, Mu Zi shifted her gaze away from Yue Shan and the others, which made the latter feel as if he had been granted a pardon. Unconsciously, he realized that his back was soaked with cold sweat, as if he had just walked through the gates of hell.

"I don't want today's events to get out."

The white-clad fairy's voice, as beautiful as heavenly music, echoed in everyone's ears, yet they dared not be negligent. She continued, her voice clear and melodious:

"If anyone utters even a single word of it, this is the consequence—"

Before she finished speaking, Mu Zi raised a slender hand and grasped the cliff behind her. Instantly, a vast expanse of purple light roared out, accompanied by a deafening roar. The mountain, thousands of feet high, was completely reduced to ruins in an instant!

No longer glancing at the horrified crowd of Yan City, Mu Zi appeared before the slightly dazed Lin Dong, grabbed him, and soared into the sky, disappearing swiftly into the distance under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Mu Zi's jade-like feet seemed to step into the air. She glanced indifferently towards the center of Yan City, a flash of purple light in her eyes. A muffled groan echoed from afar, and then she and Lin Dong transformed into a white rainbow, disappearing from everyone's sight...

Yan City, City Lord's Mansion.

A middle-aged man with a fair complexion still showed signs of shock on his face. If a sharp-eyed person were to notice, they could see a fleeting trace of blood at the corner of his mouth.

"Lord Shi, what are you doing...?"

The gray-robed old man beside him opened his sleepy eyes and looked at the middle-aged man's even paler face, a look of extreme shock appearing in his eyes.

The person in front of me had entered the third realm of creation several years ago. Such a level of powerhouse is extremely rare in the entire Tiandu County. It is truly unimaginable that the strange woman who suddenly appeared could make the former so disheveled with just a glance!

"That person must have realized we were spying on them and gave us a warning. That's really something..."

City Lord Shi smiled wryly. Offending such a powerful figure was his own fault. Having stayed in Yan City, a remote place where powerful figures were scarce, he had gradually lost his sense of awe. Fortunately, the other party did not seem to care, otherwise, today would have been a disaster.

"Master Yan, your spiritual perception is extremely sharp; how were you able to sense that person's cultivation level?"

The gray-robed elder shook his head slightly and sighed, "The city lord seems to overestimate me. My talisman mastery is only at the fourth level; how could I possibly discern the true strength of such a powerful figure?"

In Yan Xuan's spiritual perception, the mysterious white-clad woman who appeared seemed to be non-existent; if not seen with the naked eye, it would be impossible to know that there was a person there.

Such an unfathomable being, could it truly be one of the Three Realms of Creation...?

"Order the Black Armor Guards to block the news," City Lord Shi ordered in a deep voice after a moment of silence.

He had originally planned to report the mysterious expert's whereabouts to the royal family, but after the brief contact, the pressure from the woman in white was even greater than that from some of the old monsters in the royal family. Such a person, the consequences of angering her were something that he, a mere city lord of Yan City, could not bear!

"A time of great turmoil."

The middle-aged man gazed at the purple clouds that blanketed the sky, his eyes gradually becoming deep and thoughtful.

The Great Yan Dynasty is unlikely to be peaceful from now on...
