"Youwei, it's not that Eldest Senior Brother doesn't believe you, but this Xiao Cheng is no ordinary person; he has some hidden cards," Lin Xiao said, gently stroking the ends of his junior sister's hair.
Just moments ago, as he was sizing up Xiao Cheng, the system had sent him a prompt—
'The target carries the soul signature of someone from another world.'
He was not unfamiliar with this prompt!
The same message had appeared in his mind when the giant lizard first showed up!
Combined with what Xiao Cheng had just said, he could be completely certain now!
This Daoist of the Kunlun Sect, much like the giant lizard Ye Chen had previously slain, was a so-called Reincarnator!
This is already the second Reincarnator to appear. There is indeed a bug in the rules of this world!
Well, although I don't yet know why two Reincarnators have inexplicably appeared, cutting down and harvesting these 'leeks' is precisely the duty of a Destiny Big Villain like me!
With this thought, Lin Xiao focused his will, and the Immortal Sword within its box unsheathed with a resonant hum!
A light as dazzling as stars flashed by, and the magnificent 'Shadow Moon' Immortal Sword settled steadily into his palm!
"Eldest Senior Brother, let Weiwei do it!"
Chu Youwei gently stroked the back of her Eldest Senior Brother's hand, her exceptionally beautiful and elegant face flushing with a shy blush, "This... this is Weiwei's personal matter. I'm already very, very happy that you're willing to stand up for Weiwei!"
"Ah, you silly girl."
Lin Xiao shook his head and said with a wry smile, "From a young age, you've always been polite and reserved with everyone, never willing to trouble others, but—"
He reached out and gently pinched his Third Junior Sister's cheek, "Am I just 'anyone' to you? Hmm?"
Under the gaze of her 'god-like' Eldest Senior Brother, Chu Youwei's cheeks turned even redder, her enchanting, petal-like lips tightly pursed as she stammered, "Of course not! To Weiwei, Eldest Senior Brother is... the most important person!"
"Hahaha, that's right."
Lin Xiao reassured her with a smile, unconcerned by the onlookers, and planted a kiss on the young woman's forehead. He said tenderly, "Youwei, remember, in Eldest Senior Brother's heart, you, Senior Sister Yurong, and Junior Sister Yingying are all the same! From now on, you can be closer to Eldest Senior Brother, just like them."
"Ahem, anyway, what I want to tell you is, Youwei, just like Yingying and Yurong..."
Looking at the gentle young woman before him, who had always admired and revered him, never daring to overstep or disturb him in the slightest, Lin Xiao also felt a surge of heartfelt tenderness. He said earnestly, "You are also Eldest Senior Brother's wings! Do you understand?"
"Eldest Senior Brother... Weiwei understands!"
At this, the young woman was already in tears, her eyes red and watery. She could no longer care about anything else and tightly hugged the man she had longed for all her life!
Just as the senior brother and junior sister were locked in a tender embrace, their affection palpable, an enraged voice thundered from a distance,
"Hey, hey, hey, what in the world are you two doing!? Are you done yet? Our scores aren't settled!"
Xiao Cheng's expression was incredibly grim as he ground his teeth.
"Alright, Weiwei, stay here and don't move. Eldest Senior Brother will go and kill this man first."
Lin Xiao patted his junior sister's hand, about to leave, but she grasped his hand again, "Eldest Senior Brother... your marriage to Senior Sister Yurong is imminent. Regardless, this Xiao Cheng is an invited guest. If you kill him, I fear you'll earn an unrighteous reputation."
"Haha, that's my little Youwei, always more considerate than others, but—"
Lin Xiao arched an eyebrow, a glint of sharpness flashing in his handsome eyes, "Who said killing someone must involve destroying their physical body?"
Before Chu Youwei could say more, the man she had looked up to all her life had already moved, vanishing as if carried by the wind.
「Meanwhile, on another side.」
The female cultivators of the Cihang Sword Sect were also growing uneasy.
"Saintess, we have considerable ties with both the Kunlun and Qinglan Sects. Should we go and try to mediate?"
"Yes, Saintess! This Daoist Brother Lin is charming and courteous, and he even gave us honey water earlier! We should help him!"
"Exactly! This Xiao Cheng clearly provoked this confrontation with malicious intent. In contrast, Chief Lin was merely protecting his junior sister! What fault is there in that?"
"BOOHOO... Chief Lin is truly... too gentle... Ah, I'm speechless!"
"We're so envious of Fairy Chu!"
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Lin Tianxin, however, gazed at the battlefield with a calm expression, "When we descended the mountain this time, Master repeatedly instructed us not to get involved in disputes. Have you all forgotten?"
"Besides! From what I observe, this Chief Lin's Sword Intent is vast and profound, and his cultivation level has also faintly reached the Nascent Soul Realm. Xiao Cheng's Immortality Divine Skills were indeed terrifying earlier, but he is not necessarily Chief Lin's match!" Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel⸺fire.net
"The duel between these two will be of great benefit to you all! Watch closely!"
「On the plaza before the mountain gate.」
The two most powerful experts from the Righteous Path sects stood in confrontation.
An invisible, terrifying killing intent, originating from them, suddenly swept across the entire field!
"Lin Xiao, your junior sister's sonic cultivation technique indeed has some skill, but it still couldn't harm this Daoist. Do you know why?"
Looking at the Eldest Senior Brother of Divine Phoenix Peak—dressed in white like snow, his robes fluttering in the wind—Xiao Cheng narrowed his eyes and initiated the conversation.
He held some respect for an opponent who could make Ye Chen, the protagonist of the original novel, suffer a defeat.
Therefore, before utterly crushing his opponent, he didn't mind exchanging a few words to gauge his true strength.
