Chapter 208: You're Really Not Polite!

Yao Chen had traveled to many places and met many people in his lifetime.

With Xiao Yan's talent and determination, even in the Central Plains, he would be considered an exceptional genius.

But in the remote Northwestern Region, there appeared someone even more outstanding than Xiao Yan.

From the current perspective, as long as Lin Xiu is given enough time, achieving the level of Dou Venerate in the future is definitely not a problem, and there's even a chance for Dou Saint.

Moreover, everyone at the Jia Nan Academy regards him highly from top to bottom.

It wouldn't hurt to owe him a favor once, and if his request isn't too unreasonable, this old man might just accept a bit of a loss.

Thinking this way, Yao Chen saw Lin Xiu smile.

"Medicine Sovereign..."

This kid is quite polite, Yao Chen thought when he heard Lin Xiu speak, but his smile froze the next moment. "That white flame is a Heavenly Flame, right? Can you lend it to me temporarily?"

Lin Xiu looked at him with a faint smile.

"You're really not polite!"

Yao Chen's smile stiffened. The Chilling Bone Flame was his precious gift left for Xiao Yan to upgrade the Flame Mantra.

"You haven't even practiced the Flame Mantra. You have the Sea Heart Flame and yet you're not satisfied, not afraid of playing with fire and burning yourself."

But Yao Chen immediately thought of something else.

Even if Lin Xiu had perfected the Flame Soul Separation Technique, the Heavenly Flame in front of him was hardly different from an ordinary flame.

However, the Chilling Bone Flame was absolutely something he couldn't give away.

Next to him, Xiao Yan was a bit anxious, completely unexpected that Lin Xiu would actually seize this opportunity to ask for the Heavenly Flame. This was problematic.

"Lin Xiu, that indeed is the 11th-ranked Heavenly Flame on the Heavenly Flame Ranking, known as the Chilling Bone Flame. But I can't lend it to you; my Soul needs it to rely on."

This kid has high talent and strong strength, but after all, he has a short cultivation time and little experience. Yao Chen showed regret, feeling that he could get away with it.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan first breathed a sigh of relief.

Senior Brother saved the teacher and would certainly not let the teacher fall into danger for the sake of the Heavenly Flame.

"Medicine Sovereign, I understand what you mean. As long as I help you obtain a container to house your Soul, you can lend me the Heavenly Flame, right?"

Lin Xiu's rhetorical question made both the master and disciple feel uneasy.

Is he determined to target the Chilling Bone Flame?

Yao Chen stared at Lin Xiu for two seconds. "If it's just an ordinary container, it won't do. I still hope to regain my former glory."

He emphasized heavily on the word "former."

"Alright."

Lin Xiu nodded.

"If you can truly refine a body that satisfies me, borrowing the Chilling Bone Flame is also acceptable."

Once said, the words couldn't be taken back. Seeing Lin Xiu's persistence, Old Yao continued along with his words.

As soon as he finished speaking, Old Yao retreated into the ring amidst Xiao Yan's anxious and puzzled gaze.

"Teacher, how could you agree to Senior Brother's request? If he produces a body, won't you have to lend him the Chilling Bone Flame?"

In Xiao Yan's mind, the Chilling Bone Flame rightfully belonged to him. If not for his insufficient strength and the danger of devouring, he would have long ago swallowed it to evolve the Flame Mantra.

"What are you panicking for? Acquiring a body suitable for soul storage is not something that can be easily obtained. Moreover, this body can help restore my strength to its previous level. I've only seen such a body in relation to the Flame Mantra. He doesn't even practice the Flame Mantra, so how could he refine it? Do you think I just casually agreed?"

In Xiao Yan's mind, Old Yao's voice rang out like a rapid-fire barrage, buzzing in Xiao Yan's head.

In his haste, Xiao Yan had forgotten this point entirely.

After being scolded, Xiao Yan came to his senses.

"Don't think I have no concerns. If you don't strive to improve, I will also consider lowering the standards for the body."

Old Yao added.

Giving Xiao Yan this pressure was also one of the reasons why he agreed to Lin Xiu's request.

Sure enough, Xiao Yan was full of motivation and promised Old Yao in his heart that he would diligently cultivate and refine his body as soon as possible.

Yao Chen fell silent, no longer saying much.

At the same time, Hai Bo Dong and the others gradually gathered around.

"Elder Lin."

"Junior Brother."

They greeted Lin Xiu first.

"Senior Brother, let me introduce you. This is Hai Bo Dong, the Grand Elder of the Miteer Family..."

Xiao Yan stood aside and introduced Hai Bo Dong, Jia Xing Tian, Fa Ma, and others one by one.

All three of them held high positions in the Jia Ma Empire, but in front of Lin Xiu, they humbled themselves.

They all understood that the young man before them was not as immature as he appeared.

"Hello."

Lin Xiu nodded slightly, then turned his head. "Xiao Yan, you guys go ahead and talk."

He walked towards Lin Xiu Ya and the others.

"Where did you go earlier?"

Just as he approached, Yan Hao couldn't help but ask,

"I arrived early. I was eating over there before."

Following Lin Xiu's pointed finger, Yan Hao saw Zi Yan still eating, her purple hair quite eye-catching.

Because their attention had been focused on the battle earlier, they hadn't paid much attention to what was happening below.

"You two were just down there eating?"

Yan Hao was dumbfounded.

Upon hearing his exclamation, Lin Xiu Ya, Lin Yan, and the others were also stunned.

They had been fighting for their lives above, while Lin Xiu had been calmly watching from below.

"How did you manage to sneak in?"

Lin Xiu Ya couldn't help but ask.

Although Misty Cloud Sect had organized the wedding, their security measures were quite strict, making it difficult for unfamiliar faces to infiltrate.

"I met an acquaintance."

Without going into details about Young Master Lin, Lin Xiu changed the subject, "I'll be staying at Misty Cloud Sect for a while. When you go back, tell Grand Elder not to worry about me."

Yan Hao and the others nodded, accepting the instruction.

They had come this time partly because Lin Xiu was here, and partly because Xiao Yan had promised Pills.

"Elder Lin, when you return to the Black-Corner Region, Luo Sha Gate welcomes you as our guest anytime."

Seizing the opportunity, Su Mei quickly spoke. Her eyes were full of charm, with a direct and unabashed gaze.

Based on Lin Xiu's displayed strength today alone, his future dominance over the Black-Corner Region was already a certainty.

Tie Wu and Old Man Yin Gu hastened to express their sentiments.

"Yes, indeed. My Wild Lion Gang has collected many Dou Techniques. Elder Lin, if you have the time, you're welcome to come and appreciate them."

"And Dark Sky Sect welcomes Elder Lin to visit."

The Academy had always maintained its foothold nearby.

However, with Blood Sect and Eight Gates successively annihilated by Lin Xiu, they couldn't predict the future of the Black-Corner Region.

At least they didn't believe they could withstand Lin Xiu's onslaught.

"Don't worry, the Academy also hopes for harmonious relations."

Lin Xiu was very satisfied with their attitude.

If he wanted to deal with these three, it would be a simple matter of a palm strike.

But without these three, their forces would inevitably be in chaos. Since they had taken the initiative to show goodwill towards him, there was no need to eradicate them completely.

"Elder Lin, rest assured, we have always held respect for the Academy."

Su Mei hastily reassured, feeling as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her heart, making her feel much lighter.

The other two glanced at each other, also seeing the relief in each other's eyes.

After discussing matters with Lin Xiu Ya and Yan Hao, Lin Xiu descended below.

"Where is she?"

Scanning the empty seats, Lin Xiu looked towards Zi Yan.

"She left when you were dealing with Protector Wu."

Zi Yan replied.

Lin Xiu was stunned. This was the Queen of the Snake People Tribe, and she actually wanted to disavow responsibility?!
