Chapter 94 - 94 93 Encounter

94: Chapter 93 Encounter 94: Chapter 93 Encounter Lin Xuan humbly smiled.

If these people knew he not only successfully escaped but also killed three, he wondered what their expressions would be.

“This brother, I am not sure which direction Hundred Herbs Hall is,” Lin Xuan asked.

“Young brother, you should enter the city and wait for two days.

The task has been escalated, and it’s probably not something that can be completed by just one or two people.”

“Escalated?” Lin Xuan was puzzled, “This means the difficulty of the task has increased.”

However, since he had already come, even if it was difficult, he had to try.

Lin Xuan followed these people into the city.

“I’ll take you to the War Martial Hall first,” the Scarred Man said with a smile as he led the way.

The layout of the city was similar to other cities, but there were no ordinary people inside anymore, all were Martial Artists, with Cultivation varying widely from Body Refinement to Mystical Realm.

Lin Xuan noticed that those with lower Cultivation were mostly engaged in logistical labor, while those with higher Cultivation were responsible for defense.

All the way, Lin Xuan kept looking around, awe in his heart.

Before long, he followed the Scarred Man to the front of a mansion—the halls and pavilions were numerous.

It used to be the City Lord Mansion, but now it served as a combat base.

The Scarred Man said that the Martial Arts Hall was inside.

Soon, the two of them came to the Martial Arts Hall, located in a more secluded and quiet area of the City Lord Mansion.

Entering the War Martial Hall, Lin Xuan found that there were already many people inside.

Most of them were young, with Cultivation at the Eighth Rank of Congealing Veins or above, and even quite a few were at the Ninth Rank.

These were young elites, Disciples from various sects and families.

Lin Xuan’s arrival naturally also attracted the attention of others, and in an instant, numerous gazes fixed on him.

“Eighth Rank of Congealing Veins, so weak, who is this kid?” Many wondered in their hearts.

Lin Xuan’s Cultivation was not particularly outstanding, at least among these people, he was considered one of the weakest, but in terms of actual strength, that was another matter.

“This is Young Hero Lin from the Xuantian Sect, he is also here for the Hundred Herbs Hall task,” the Scarred Man introduced, “Young Hero Lin managed to escape from six Eagle-men, which is how he came to Beiwei City.”

“Managed to escape from six Eagle-men!” Suddenly, those previously contemptuous looks disappeared, and the young people in the hall began to seriously observe Lin Xuan.

“Hmph!” A cold snort came from the front.

Lin Xuan looked up and saw Fan Chong sitting in front, his eyes filled with a dark gleam.

It seemed that everyone also noticed Fan Chong’s unusual reaction, and soon many people had a playful look in their eyes.

“When can we take action?” someone asked, “Are we just supposed to wait here?”

“That’s right, initially this was just a simple rescue mission, only to rescue the trapped people in Hundred Herbs Hall,” said the Scarred Man, “But recently Lishan City went through a big battle, and the situation there has become very perilous, so rescuing the people from Hundred Herbs Hall is likely to be very difficult now.”

“Even if Lishan City is perilous, if we send some elites, it shouldn’t be a difficult task,” one person asked.

“After that battle, the General was poisoned, and the key to the antidote lies in Hundred Herbs Hall, so the Demon Clan will definitely send extra forces,” the Scarred Man sighed.

“I see,” Lin Xuan realized, it looked like this mission was indeed not easy.

“However, everyone rest assured, when the time comes Vice General Mr.

Zeng will lead the elite forces and all of you in the operation.”

“This time, anyone who is able to act will be rewarded with battle points.”

“Battle points!” The youngsters’ eyes sparkled.

They had joined this mission not only for the medicinal herbs but also for these battle points.

Seeing Lin Xuan’s puzzled expression, the scarred man explained, “These battle points can be used to exchange for resources at any martial hall in Xia Country, like secret manuals, divine weapons, and so on.

As long as you have enough points, you can make the exchange.”

Battle points were allocated based on factors like mission completion and performance in killing enemies.

“Exchanging resources at the martial hall!” Lin Xuan nodded, finally understanding why these youths were so excited—it was because they could exchange for various resources.

The martial halls of Xia Country were incomparable to ordinary sects; the items they offered were amassed with the power of an entire nation and nothing was ordinary.

It was then that a girl in a silver robe slowly approached, her slender eyes shining with a cold glow, like gemstones.

As the silver-robed girl walked into the great hall and saw Lin Xuan, a ripple of aura suddenly rose from her.

It was as if an invisible mountain was pressing down, causing all the youths in the hall to tense up, struggling to breathe.

“Spirit Sea Realm!” Everyone gasped, eyes filled with wariness.

The girl in the silver robe seemed young, only about sixteen or seventeen, but the aura emanating from her far surpassed everyone else.

Fan Chong and other ninth-rank martial artists of the Mystical Realm also felt a tremor in their hearts that they could not easily quell.

The Spirit Sea Realm, where nine spirit veins converge to form a Spirit Sea within the body.

Once formed, the body of the martial artist would undergo earth-shattering changes.

However, not every ninth-rank martial artist could enter the Spirit Sea Realm.

Many martial artists have been trapped by this hurdle for decades, which was not uncommon.

Yet, this young girl had managed to break through to the Spirit Sea Realm at such a young age, her talent frighteningly extraordinary.

Fan Chong took a deep breath, guessing that probably only Wan Jianxing from Xuantian Sect could be compared to her.

That silver-robed girl, like a king looking down from above, gazed at the crowd—more specifically at Lin Xuan.

“I never imagined I would encounter you here, Lin Xuan!” The voice of the silver-robed girl was cold and detached, devoid of any warmth.

“Lin Xuan?

She actually knows Lin Xuan!” Fan Chong’s pupils shrunk, and the others exchanged puzzled looks.

“Hello, Xiao Yue Yue!” Lin Xuan strived to remain calm, his heart churned with emotions.

This girl was a member of his family, from the Lin Family of Sword Pond Prefecture, Lin Yue.

“Hmph!” The silver-robed girl, Lin Yue, frowned, and her aura violently surged towards Lin Xuan, as if wanting to devour him.

Lin Xuan’s own aura emerged, sharp and unmatched, as though it could cleave through anything.

“You no longer have the right to call me by that name.” The surge in Lin Yue’s aura receded like a tide, then she gave Lin Xuan a deep look before gracefully departing.

“Sword Pond Prefecture, one day I will return!” The sharp aura around Lin Xuan also gradually faded away.

This scene left the crowd exchanging glances, wondering how this young man could know such a heavenly pride girl, and furthermore, why their relationship seemed somewhat hostile.

Lin Xuan did not explain to the crowd, but the scarred man spoke up about the silver-robed girl’s background—a sixteen-year-old Spirit Sea Realm martial artist, who was also an Artifact Cultivation Master responsible for maintaining all the weapons at the base.

Lin Xuan found a spot to sit down, his heart restless.

Lin Yue’s talent was only considered high grade within the family and not the best of them, but she had already reached the Spirit Sea Realm, which meant that the others were probably even more formidable.

“I have a year and a half left.

I must return to my family before then and secure a spot to enter the Ancestral Land!”
