46. Qing Tan Returns

"Have you heard? The Lin family was ravaged by two terrifying beasts!"

"Who hasn't heard? It's the talk of Qingyang Town!"

"Not only that, I heard that a powerful White-Headed Pleasure Ape violated all the women in the Lin family."

"What a brutal beast."

"A shame, too. I heard there were some fine ladies in the Lin family, and that beast just took advantage."

"Ugh, why am I not that ape..."

"??"

The news quickly spread to Yan City and across the entire Great Yan Country. This was precisely Chen Xuan's intention, meant to lure Lin Qingtan out from hiding and finish the Lin family once and for all.

Not long after, Lin Qingtan, training in the nearby mountains, overheard the gossip from a villager gathering herbs.

She was filled with rage and stormed over to her master, Bo Xuan.

"Master, that vile man attacked my family! They say he even defiled the Lin women. You must help me destroy him!"

Bo Xuan laughed confidently, "I promised you, didn't I? I'll help you." She waved a hand, summoning a figure from the trees. A man wearing a ghostly mask emerged, emanating a powerful aura of yuan energy. The mask gave him an eerie, fearsome air.

The masked man approached Bo Xuan and bowed. "Master."

"Chen Kui, this is your junior apprentice sister. Go with her to handle this," Bo Xuan ordered.

"Yes, Master." Chen Kui nodded.

Lin Qingtan hesitated, "Master, can he win?"

Bo Xuan chuckled, "Your senior brother Chen Kui is already at the Eight Yuan Nirvana level. Handling a boy at the Five or Six Yuan Nirvana level should be no trouble."

Confidently, Bo Xuan instructed Chen Kui, who was also a wanted name on the Eastern Mystics' sects blacklist.

Feeling assured of Chen Kui's power, Lin Qingtan grabbed his arm, and they quickly headed for the Lin family in Qingyang Town.

At the Lin residence in Qingyang Town, Chen Xuan had set up a barrier and was lying comfortably in bed, preparing to draw on his system points.

Noting his energy level was still high, he decided to continue his spree of draws.

"System, ten draws!" Chen Xuan commanded.

Ding! Thank you for participating; better luck next time.

"Huh? Two in a row?"

He continued, receiving mostly minor skills and low-level martial arts techniques, all disappointing. He was about to try another round when he sensed a strong aura approaching from the rear of Qingyang Town. It felt like an Eight Yuan Nirvana Realm—a formidable power even among the elite sects.

Chen Xuan appeared outside, glancing up at the sky, where two figures descended onto the Lin estate.

One was a slender woman in a pale green dress, her face a mask of suppressed rage. She was Lin Qingtan. Beside her stood her senior, the Eight Yuan Nirvana Realm expert Chen Kui.

With a trembling hand, Lin Qingtan pointed. "Senior Brother Chen Kui, destroy him!"

She barely asked who he was and instantly demanded an attack—direct and fierce.

Ding! Lin Qingtan has generated anger; emotion points +200.

"Leave it to me!" Chen Kui responded confidently, taking a step forward as a terrifying wave of yuan energy radiated from his body, causing everyone in Qingyang Town to retreat into their homes, trembling.

Gripping a large black serrated blade marked with ghostly faces, he pointed it at Chen Xuan, declaring, "Your life is mine!"

Chen Xuan looked at Chen Kui calmly. "You shouldn't have meddled."

"Hmph! Who are you to tell me what to do?" Chen Kui sneered, feeling a vague sense of familiarity with Chen Xuan but brushing it off. Confident he could finish this in under ten minutes, he lunged with his serrated blade charged with yuan energy.

But Chen Xuan's yuan energy surged as he activated his King's Fist at full power. His aura suddenly rocketed to the ninth Nirvana level.

Ding! Lin Qingtan has generated surprise; emotion points +100.

"Ninth level? Impossible!" Chen Kui gasped.

Though they were now closely matched, Chen Kui realized it wouldn't be easy to win quickly.

Even more so, he was shocked that such an ability existed, allowing one to surge by three levels in power. He was filled with greed—if he could obtain this skill, he'd dominate any rivals in the Eastern and Northern Mystics Sects

Without holding back, he unleashed his full strength, focusing all his efforts on overpowering Chen Xuan, determined to seize his soul-extracting banner that emitted a terrifying dark energy around Chen Xuan.

This treasure was his for the taking.
