Chapter 751: Chapter 750: Xiao Naihe’s Revenge

Flowing Water Saint was gone. No one knew where she went, not even Qingfeng Saint. Perhaps she hadn’t told anyone because she didn’t want to drag them into her troubles.

Although she had high hopes for Lin Yun, the current Lin Yun was not yet qualified to confront her family head-on. Perhaps she could only wait for him to grow stronger.

After standing alone on the mountain peak for a while, Qingfeng Saint also departed. With Flowing Water Saint gone, he was now the only one left by Lin Yun’s side.

Lin Yun was completely unaware that Flowing Water Saint had left. At this time, he and Little Ape were already resting in Xi Zijin’s small courtyard. To have survived a full-power strike from a Celestial Saint Realm Saint’s Mark was already a remarkable feat for the two of them.

Sitting by the bed and gazing at Lin Yun, who was asleep on her own bed, a complex look filled Xi Zijin’s eyes. ’This is my private chamber; no other man has ever entered, let alone slept in my bed.’

Quietly watching the sleeping Lin Yun, Xi Zijin’s eyes filled with love. This was the first time in her life she had ever felt love for a man.

While Lin Yun lay unconscious, Xiao Naihe was in a rage, throwing a tantrum in the courtyard Meng Liuli had arranged for him.

His trip to the Eastern Domain had not only cost him the Saint’s Mark his father had given him, but he had also failed to kill Lin Yun. Xiao Naihe’s mind had already become twisted with obsession.

Looking at the two Saint Guards standing before him, Xiao Naihe cursed them without mercy. "You two useless oafs! You’re both at the Earth Saint Realm Cultivation, yet you couldn’t even stop those two. If you had managed to hold back that woman, Lin Yun would be a corpse by now!"

Hearing Xiao Naihe’s furious shouts, the two Saint Guards didn’t dare say a word. They knew his temper well; he was someone who had been born with a silver spoon in his mouth and had only ever cared about himself.

After he had vented for a while, and his anger seemed to have subsided a little, one of the Saint Guards approached Xiao Naihe and whispered something in his ear.

After hearing the man’s words, Xiao Naihe’s eyes widened in shock. He looked at the guard and asked in a low voice, "Is what you’re saying true?"

"Absolutely true," the Saint Guard replied.

"Good. Very good. If that’s the case, then that’s a weight off my mind," Xiao Naihe said.

Then, the Saint Guard continued, "Second Young Master, this matter is beyond our capabilities. Besides, even though we failed to kill Lin Yun this time, we still have one last card to play."

Hearing this, a flicker of confusion crossed Xiao Naihe’s eyes. He looked at the man, gesturing for him to continue.

Seeing this, the man continued, "Second Young Master, we came to the Eastern Domain under the General Pavilion Master’s orders. We hold the authority to decide the terms of the alliance. What if... we were to snatch away the woman Lin Yun loves..........."

As he listened, an extremely sinister look flashed in Xiao Naihe’s eyes. The idea was indeed a good one—to steal the woman by Lin Yun’s side. His thoughts quickly turned to Xi Zijin.

From the moment Lin Yun had appeared, Xiao Naihe had noticed that Xi Zijin treated him differently. Although she hid it well, Xiao Naihe had still caught the hint of love in her eyes.

Thinking of Xi Zijin—her stunning beauty, her seductive figure, and that icy temperament—the mere thought of pinning a woman like that beneath him sent a wave of heat through Xiao Naihe.

"But..." Looking at the guard, Xiao Naihe hesitated. "My father personally decided the terms of this alliance. Not even I have the right to change it."

Understanding Xiao Naihe’s concern, the guard gave a sinister smile. "Second Young Master, while the alliance has been settled, with your status, if you go propose marriage to Meng Liuli for her disciple, can they possibly refuse?"

As this brilliant scheme formed in his mind, a cold smile crept across Xiao Naihe’s lips. ’This move is absolutely perfect.’

’I can get a beauty like Xi Zijin and deliver a vicious slap to Lin Yun’s face all at once. It’s truly more satisfying than simply killing him.’

Laughing out loud, Xiao Naihe couldn’t wait to find Meng Liuli. Accompanied by the two Saint Guards, the three of them soon arrived at Meng Liuli’s residence.

They reached the main hall without any obstruction. The moment he saw Meng Liuli, a flash of lust appeared in Xiao Naihe’s eyes. ’This Meng Liuli is also a rare beauty—mature and enchanting. Although not as beautiful as her disciple, Xi Zijin, she has a unique charm of her own.’

Despite her inner fury at Xiao Naihe’s brazen gaze, Meng Liuli said nothing. She couldn’t afford to offend someone of his status. As long as he didn’t go too far, Meng Liuli planned to let it go and keep the peace.

Taking a seat, Xiao Naihe looked at Meng Liuli and said nonchalantly, "Dream Pavilion Master, I hold great admiration for your beloved disciple, Xi Zijin. I have come to you today to discuss the matter of her marriage to me."

He was direct from the start, not beating around the bush in the slightest.

Upon hearing Xiao Naihe’s words, Meng Liuli’s gaze hardened, and a coldness entered her eyes. She never would have imagined that Xiao Naihe would set his sights on Xi Zijin.

Staring directly at Xiao Naihe, Meng Liuli figured it out after a moment. ’The reason for his decision isn’t that he’s particularly fond of Zijin; at most, he’s only infatuated with her looks.’

’More than anything, he’s likely doing this to get revenge on Lin Yun. After all, the affection Zijin has shown let him know that she’s Lin Yun’s woman—or, at the very least, a woman who loves Lin Yun.’

"You’re doing this for revenge against Lin Yun, aren’t you?" With her own disciple’s future at stake, Meng Liuli decided she would not back down this time. Her voice turned somewhat icy as she spoke.

Meng Liuli had clearly shown her displeasure, but Xiao Naihe paid it no mind. After his guard’s suggestion, Xiao Naihe was now more convinced than ever that this plan was brilliant—even more satisfying than killing Lin Yun.

’Just imagine it: a man whose own woman is stolen from him. Even if he continued to live, isn’t that a fate worse than death?’

"Dream Pavilion Master, what do you mean by that? Do you think that someone of my status, Xiao Naihe, is not worthy of your disciple? Or perhaps you believe that your Eastern Domain Spiritual Light Pavilion is no longer a branch of the Spiritual Light Main Pavilion?" A playful, mocking smile on his face, Xiao Naihe grinned at Meng Liuli.

Their eyes met. Xiao Naihe was blatantly using his status to pressure her. A fire of rage was already burning in Meng Liuli’s heart, but just as Xiao Naihe had said, the Eastern Domain Spiritual Light Pavilion was indeed a branch of the Spiritual Light Main Pavilion.
