Lin Ziyi spoke frankly and bluntly. That was how much fear she had for the old Sect Leader of the Xuanhuo Sect.
Otherwise, when facing Li Shou who came to her door to bully her sisters, she would have killed him long ago instead of worrying so much.
Lu Xuan smiled. At the critical moment earlier on, he was about to trigger the Chaos Heaven Stabilizer Bell. But at the most crucial time, Lin Ziyi made a move. Hence, he suppressed the Chaos Heaven Stabilizer Bell.
Lin Ziyi did not care about Li Shou, and Lu Xuan only had some worries about him, which was not at the level of fear yet.
Among those at the Consolidation Realm, Li Shou’s Cultivation Base was at the bottom. If they really were to fight, Lu Xuan would not be able to do anything to Li Shou, but Li Shou could not do anything to Lu Xuan either.
With the Chaos Heaven Stabilizer Bell, whether he used it to protect himself or retreat, Lu Xuan was absolutely confident.
“This doesn’t feel right. He’s still close!” Lin Ziyi knitted her eyebrows together. Within her senses, Li Shou had not gone far. He only just distanced himself from the Holy Nun Gate’s entrance. “It may seem that his mind is set on killing you. If you leave the Holy Nun Gate, death will dawn upon you!”
Lin Ziyi instantly understood Li Shou’s thoughts. Li Shou was sure that Lu Xuan would leave the Holy Nun Gate, and when that happened, he would attack Lu Xuan again.
Lu Xuan’s range of perception was not inferior to Lin Ziyi’s. What Lin Ziyi could detect; he could also detect.
Moreover, Li Shou was not trying to conceal himself at all. He was just sitting over there in the open and assuming a posture that implied that he wanted Lu Xuan dead.
“It looks like he really wants to kill me!” Lu Xuan smiled with a hint of elegance on his face. Likewise, he did not care about the threat in the distance.
“It’s alright. If he’s willing to wait, we’ll let him wait!” Lin Ziyi sneered.
“Even until the day the world crumbles, he will not dare to come in. He’s just someone who cringes before the strong and bullies the weak!”
However, Lu Xuan shook his head and said, “I’m afraid that he is not simply waiting. He’s setting up a ‘pocket array’. The person he is really waiting for is the Sect Leader of the Xuanhuo Sect!”
With just a faint guess, Lu Xuan predicted his opponent’s thoughts. Li Shou was also aware that he was no match for Lin Ziyi. Hence, breaking into the Holy Nun Gate to get him was impossible.
However, he could wait outside, and since the area was already beyond Holy Nun Gate territory, Lin Ziyi had an excuse to attack him.
If Lin Ziyi were to perform a hostile act outside the Holy Nun Gate, that would be a real offense. Then, the Holy Nun Gate would have to face the Xuanhuo Sect’s wrath.
Among the Four Great Holy Lands, the weakest and least profound was none other than the Holy Nun Gate. If the Xuanhuo Sect found a reason to attack, the Holy Nun Gate would probably perish.
It was precisely because of this that Lin Ziyi just gave her opponent a small punishment and a stern warning. Otherwise, she would have beheaded him long ago.
Li Shou was also well aware of this and that was why he was camping right outside the Holy Nun Gate.
“Bring it on then! As if I’m afraid of them!”
Lin Ziyi said that she did not care, but she was still a little worried in her heart.
That was the current number one ace in the Tempest Ocean Realm who could defeat everyone in the current world.
Whether Cultivators of mankind or kings among monsters, none could rival him.
She had once fought with the leader of the Xuanhuo Sect briefly. As a result, she retreated as she was defeated. That was the reason why she had a deep fear of the leader of the Xuanhuo Sect.
Over the years, Lin Ziyi did not expand her power and had been lazing in the Holy Nun Gate for long periods of time. Apart from her own personality, there was a little part in her that was thinking about avoiding the Xuanhuo Sect’s leader.
She still understood the principle of low-key development!
“The situation right now allows no delay. When the Xuanhuo Sect’s leader arrives, what if he asks you to hand me over?” Lu Xuan said solemnly. “Hence, the best solution right now is my departure. By doing so, they will have no excuses anymore!”
“How can I let that happen? If I leave you alone just because I was threatened, what would people think of me?”
Lin Ziyi immediately widened her eyes and rejected his proposal.
Lu Xuan smiled bitterly. Lin Ziyi’s temper was still the same. Even though she was a woman, she was bolder and loyal than most ordinary men.
However, it was precisely because of this that Lu Xuan and Lin Ziyi had become good friends in their previous life. They were even together in foreign worlds.
Such people may sometimes act recklessly, but most of the time, they were still very reliable teammates. He does not have to worry about being betrayed and stabbed in the back.
Lu Xuan restrained his emotions and said, “Lady Lin, the other party is clearly exploiting your character. They want to use you as an opening to their plan. You must not be held back by them. The most important thing for you right now is to improve your cultivation base. You still have plenty of time to prepare yourself to face that old man in the future!”
Lu Xuan would never let Lin Ziyi take risks because he had achieved great success in his cultivation. At this stage, whether the earth, his family on earth, or his two younger sisters who joined the Holy Nun Gate, they all needed to rely on Lin Ziyi’s prestige to restrain those eager to strike them.
At this stage, Lin Ziyi was everyone’s greatest amulet. Most certainly, Lu Xuan could not let Lin Ziyi take risks.
Besides, it was only Li Shou. Lu Xuan was still confident in shaking him off!
“I will not use my own life to make a joke. I’m sure that I can lure him away while staying safe and sound!” Lu Xuan said.
Lin Ziyi looked at Lu Xuan seriously. Naturally, she understood that what Lu Xuan said was the most sensible idea so far.
If they keep on with such rigidity, that old guy who was hiding in the dark and wanting to strike her down was definitely going to make a move.
“Since that’s the case, I shall hinder you no further. But rest assured, if that old man dares to cross the line and attacks Shanshan and Guoguo, I’ll make sure that he doesn’t succeed even it means fighting him to the death!” said Lin Ziyi. Evidently, she knew what Lu Xuan’s real concerns were.
“Thank you, Lady Lin. After I bid farewell to my two younger sisters, I will leave immediately. After that, you can announce that I have left, and then Xuanhuo Sect will have nothing left to threaten you!” Lu Xuan said.
“Alas, even a newcomer is thinking so comprehensively for me. You’re my friend now. Make sure you come back alive. If nothing works out, you can just come back to the Holy Nun Sect!” Lin Ziyi sighed and said.
Most certainly, she did not know that the reason Lu Xuan planned so much was that he had a bond with her in his previous life. It was for the friendship they shared back in the past.
Lu Shanshan and Lu Guoguo rushed over after hearing the news.
“Xuan, this is too dangerous. I don’t agree with this!” Lu Shanshan said with a straight face.
“I don’t agree either!”
Lu Guoguo also stared at him with her eyes wide open. She looked sulky and was disagreeing with his proposal in its entirety!
“Relax, I’m fine. You must trust your brother, for I’m a man who creates miracles!”
