Chapter 360 Still Too Young [Seeking Monthly Tickets! Seeking Rewards!]

This moment.

The tent became very quiet.

Yunying knew she had let something slip, so she was now even more afraid to breathe, shrinking back and looking extremely terrified.

Yun Chen, standing to the side, was in no better shape. In fact, he was even more extreme than Yun Ying. Not only did he hold his breath, but he also activated the "Concealment" divine rune to minimize his presence. For some reason, seeing his practiced movements, one couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him...

Yun Chen felt a bitter taste in his mouth. He didn't want to go to such lengths, but the key point was that he was the lowest-ranking member of their family. If someone had to be targeted, that person would definitely be him.

Therefore, he could only try to minimize his presence and escape unscathed.

Yun Chen silently chanted, "You can't see me, you can't see me!"

This little trick was useless against Yun Jie. Unless Yun Chen disappeared from this world, he couldn't hide it from Yun Jie. He glanced at Yun Chen, his eyes filled with disdain. Not only was he over two hundred years old, but he was also the lord of a prefecture and an invincible expert, yet he was still so childish!

Noticing his father's gaze, Yun Chen sensed something was wrong. He quickly put on a pleading look, clasped his hands together in front of his chest, and looked pitiful, hoping that Yun Jie would let him off the hook.

However... that's impossible!

Isn't a son just a scapegoat?

Yun Jie gave Yun Chen a subtle look, as if to say, "Sorry, son, your mother is still watching me. For the sake of our family, and for your old man's sake, it's time for you to step up! I'll remember you!"

"Ahem," Yun Jie coughed twice, then, with a righteous air, he shouted at Yun Chen, "What exactly happened, Yun Chen? Hurry up and explain to your mother! You unfilial son!"

"And you! Yunying! What are you snickering about? What did you mean by what you just said? What are you two siblings hiding from us? Today, you must confess to your mother! And of course, me too."

This time, Yun Jie didn't even spare his precious daughter Yun Ying. It wasn't safe for Yun Chen to take the blame alone, so to be on the safe side, the two siblings had to share the burden.

How did the fire end up on me?

Yun Ying, who had been secretly amused, was stunned when she heard Yun Jie's words.

I'm so angry and cold! My dad's even selling me out now! Does he have no regard for our father-daughter relationship at all?

I know, he probably forgot about his daughter now that he has a grandson!

"Hehe," Jiang Yao sneered, crossing her arms in front of her chest, quietly watching the father and his two sons "perform." At the same time, she gave Yun Jie an "approving" look. Not bad, you even sold your precious daughter to protect yourself. It seems you've realized the seriousness of the matter!

Unfortunately... it's too late!

For the next hundred years, don't even think about getting into my bed!

Yun Jie's face fell; clearly, he had overheard Jiang Yao's thoughts. He said sullenly, "My dear wife, isn't a hundred years too long? How about... we shorten it?"

Jiang Yao gave a half-smile, walked gracefully to Yun Jie, grabbed his ear, and then turned to Yun Chen and his sister, saying:

"You two go out first, but don't run away. I still have a score to settle with you later! You two guard the tent for me and don't let anyone else disturb me and your father. Today... I'm going to have a good spar with him!"

Yun Chen and Yun Ying exchanged a glance, then in a flash, they left the tent, their speed resembling that of someone fleeing a disaster.

However, the two siblings were very obedient. Not only did they not run away, but they also stood on either side of the door, acting as doormen.

Meanwhile, their ears perked up slightly, listening intently to the sounds coming from inside the tent. A hint of excitement lingered in their eyes, and their bodies trembled slightly. After so many years! Mom had finally made her move again!

Damn dad, tremble!

"Why is there no sound at all? Hasn't a fight broken out? You stinky Yun Chen, did you hear anything?" Yun Ying frowned slightly and transmitted her voice to Yun Chen.

Yun Chen rolled his eyes at her and transmitted his voice, "Given that situation, how could a fight not have broken out? Since there's no movement, it means that Dad probably set up some kind of soundproof array, which is why it's so quiet."

"What should I do?"

Yunying looked distressed. It was bad enough that she couldn't see such a wonderful scene, but she couldn't even hear the sound of it.

Yun Chen tentatively asked, "Why don't you try to crack it?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? I won't do it!"

Yun Ying glared at Yun Chen, annoyed.

Yun Chen said dryly, "Never mind then, I'm not curious anyway! Let's wait."

Yun Ying snorted coldly: "What a coincidence, me too!"

at the same time.

Nanyuan City.

The mission Su Yu posted on the Hunter Ranking attracted a lot of interest. Everyone was curious about the information about the Great Xuan Mansion, especially their hidden strength, which attracted a lot of attention from all sides.

If we can get this intelligence, we'll definitely get plenty of resources.

Therefore, members of the Hunter's Pavilion from other major prefectures rushed to Nanyuan.

Some lucky and strong individuals are naturally fine, but some unlucky and weak individuals, when they encounter humans, basically only have two outcomes: one is to die on the spot, and the other is to extract all the information from your hands and then kill you. Either way, it's still death.

Nanyuan, the place where the ruins appeared, was already a focus of the Hunter's Pavilion. Now, with the Lin Xian incident, Xuanjia came, along with several other elders.

Outside the city, Nan Wujiang sent a message to Su Yu's team: "Xuan Jiu, where are you now?"

Su Yu: "In a very safe place."

screw you!

Nan Wujiang cursed loudly.

Huang Jiu answered honestly, "Elder, I am in Nanyuan."

Originally, Xuan Shiqi and Di Shiba didn't want to reveal their exact locations, but that bastard Huang Jiu actually did!

If they didn't tell, they might leave a bad impression on Elder Xuanjia, and he might make things difficult for them in the future. Therefore, they had no choice but to confess.

Xuan Shiqi replied, "Elder, Di Shiba and I are hiding together in a cave twelve kilometers southwest of Nanyuan City."

Xuanjia was first surprised by Huang Jiu's location, then said to Xuan Shiqi and the other two, "Then you two come and meet us quickly. We are 25 kilometers to your north."

These elders were very cautious. Even after arriving, they did not get too close to Nan Yuan, but instead lay in wait dozens of miles away.

"Roger that!"

Xuan Shiqi and Di Shiba quickly left their hiding place and then cautiously headed towards the place where Xuanjia and the others were.

They cannot afford to be careless. It is only their second day in the human realm, and they have heard that a quarter of their men have already perished.

terrible!

The second day isn't even over yet, and a quarter of the people are already gone!

There were over a hundred people, all of whom were above the Mountain and Sea Realm, with a dozen or so at the Sun and Moon Realm. Yet, the losses on the second day were so severe, with thirty people falling, including three at the Sun and Moon Realm.

Because of the heavy losses, the Hunter's Pavilion mobilized its manpower again. This time, they gathered two hundred people, all of whom were at least at the Mountain and Sea Realm. Almost all of them were core members of the Hunter's Pavilion. This time, the Hunter's Pavilion was going all out for the Southern Yuan Ruins.

Of course, the main reason is the three "traitors". They deliberately sent a large number of people to the human realm. As long as all these people are killed in the human realm, it will take the Hunter's Pavilion several decades to recover its strength.

Although they were unaware of each other's existence, Xia Wudi was an exception.

They knew that after this incident, they would have to return to the human race.

Therefore, before returning, they need to weaken the Hunter Sky Pavilion as much as possible, ideally making it disappear from the historical stage. Having been in contact with the Hunter Sky Pavilion for a long time, they have seen through its true nature.

The Hunter's Pavilion is not a good organization. Its existence does more harm than good to the human race. Therefore, weakening the Hunter's Pavilion has become their consensus.

······

Over the next few days, the Hunter's Pavilion, along with Lin Xian, staged a great battle royale, with them being the ones being hunted.

The border between Daxia Prefecture and Dajin Prefecture.

"Elder, let's abandon Lin Xian. Just now, we lost three more brothers! We've already lost enough because of him!"

These words immediately resonated with many. "That's right, I think we should give up on Lin Xian. With this kid around, we're just a moving target. Judging from their expressions, they won't stop until they bring Lin Xian back!"

Someone complained, "This is unbelievable! I wonder if this kid has really discovered some ruins, that these people are chasing us so relentlessly."

"Hey kid, have you found any ruins or not?"

Lin Xian glanced at them indifferently. Even surrounded by "enemies," he showed no fear. "I have no obligation to tell you that this clause is not included in our deal."

"you!"

The crowd was furious, but Xuanjia stopped them with a look.

Xuanjia said to "Lin Xian" in a friendly tone, "Lin Xian, although this is not a clause in our deal, we hope that you can be honest with us and clarify things to the outside world. Regardless of whether it is true or not, just say that you did not find the ruins and that what happened that day was a misunderstanding. Otherwise, not only will we be in danger, but you will be in danger as well."

Lin Xian glanced at Xuanjia with disdain: "Danger? Isn't it because you're all useless? I told you to take me to the Great Xuan Prefecture, but you've led me almost all the way to the Great Jin Prefecture! How am I supposed to get back now? Let me tell you, if I die, you won't get any information, and you'll have to bear the wrath of my great-grandfather and the Xuanwu Army!"

Nan Wujiang's expression froze. Damn it, this kid Su Yu is really good at using someone else's power to bully others!

At the same time, it also vividly demonstrates Lin Xian's ignorance. Anyone who has been to the Battlefield of the Heavens knows that using Lin Dong and the Xuanwu Army to threaten the Hunter's Pavilion is nothing but a joke, but who told Lin Xian to have never been there?

Therefore, apart from Xuanjia knowing Lin Xian's true identity, the others did not have much doubt about Su Yu's words. On the contrary, they thought it was normal. Isn't this how people with status and background threaten others? They've seen it all before.

However, faced with Lin Xian's arrogant attitude, the other elders were not as easy to talk to as Xuanjia.

Elder Huang Yi shouted, "Lin Xian! Do you think your great-grandfather and the Xuanwu Army can threaten our Hunter's Pavilion? Don't put on airs in front of us! You'd better put away your young master act, or we won't tolerate you!"

Elder Xuanbing coldly said, "We've lost so many men protecting you; you should pay us! Tell us, just how much power is the Great Xuan Palace hiding?!"

Lin Xian scoffed, "Do you think I'm stupid? If I told you, would I even have a chance to survive?"

Elder Xuanbing frowned slightly: "We can assure you that we will not kill you."

"Tch, who would believe that? Besides, not killing me doesn't mean I'm safe. I may not have traveled far from home, but I'm not stupid!"

Huang Yi glared menacingly at Lin Xian and roared, "Don't be so ungrateful! Do you really think we wouldn't dare kill you?"

Lin Xian shrank back, his expression tense, and said, "You...you mustn't do anything rash! If you kill me, you won't know anything!"

Huang Yi and the others exchanged glances, a hint of a smile in their eyes. Very good, this kid is panicking. It seems he's not so fearless after all.

However, only Xuanjia knew that this kid was incredibly audacious. You might think he was afraid, but who knows what mischief he was up to now.

Actually, although Su Yu was bold, he couldn't possibly be that brave. He had already contacted Zhang Jing beforehand, and now Zhang Jing was leading his men to follow them from a distance. If things went wrong, they would take immediate action. That's what gave him the right to be so arrogant!

Elder Xuanbing's expression softened slightly. Since Huang Yi was playing the bad cop, he would play the good cop. He said helplessly, "We didn't want this either, but look how many people we've lost because of you! We elders also need to give our subordinates an explanation..."

"But……"

Lin Xian looked very conflicted and hesitant, repeatedly trying to speak but stopping himself; he was wavering.
