Chapter 1348 Hatred (3)
The carriage gradually arrived at the foot of Moonlight Peak. Yun Lintian hopped down with Linlin and Qingqing on his shoulders.
“Thank you.” He said to Chu Mi with a smile.
“I’ll go first, Big Brother Yun.” Chu Mi knew that Yun Lintian had something to discuss with his master. She didn’t plan to stay here further and quickly left with the carriage.
Watching the carriage go away, Yun Lintian raised his head to look at the familiar mountain with a hint of nostalgia. Two years ago, he arrived here in order to earn a quota of the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm, but who would have thought that he would end up knowing many precious people here?
Although his master, Lin Zixuan, and his other senior sisters couldn’t help him much on his profound path, they never gave up on helping him. This touched his heart deeply.
Without thinking further, Yun Lintian took a step forward, walking along the path toward the mountain peak.
“This place didn’t change at all.” Yun Lintian looked at various trees and emitted a faint moonlight with a smile. For some reason, he felt like he had returned to his second home in this world.
After walking for a while, he finally arrived at the peak where a few bamboo huts could be seen arranged neatly nearby a small river.
At this moment, a beautiful woman sat by the river, looking at the sky calmly. Her long hair fluttered gently along a spring breeze, giving off a peaceful vibe to anyone who saw her.
When Yun Lintian walked over, she slowly turned to look at him. A smile appeared on her face as she said. “You’re back.”
Yun Lintian’s heart warmed upon hearing this. He bowed his head and said. “Disciple Yun Lintian deserves to be punished for returning late.”
The woman, Lin Zixuan, got up from the ground and said gently. “What are you talking about? My disciple went out to save the world. How could I have the heart to punish you?”
Yun Lintian was slightly surprised. Normally, Lin Zixuan rarely made a joke like this… It seemed she had changed throughout the years.”
As he was surprised, Lin Zixuan had already arrived before him. She looked up and down briefly and said softly. “Welcome back. You’ve worked hard during this period.”
Yun Lintian smiled brightly and said jokingly. “It wasn’t hard at all, Master. I merely waved my hands a few times.”
Lin Zixuan let out a chuckle, startling Yun Lintian with her charming smile.
“Junior brother?” At this moment, Jiang Yingyue walked over with a bamboo basket full of mushrooms and said in surprise.
“Big sister. You’re still as beautiful as usual.” Yun Lintian greeted her with a warm smile.
“It’s good that you’re back.” Jiang Yingyue said with a gentle smile. Although she hadn’t seen Yun Lintian for a long time, she was aware of his action, as Murong Xue always told her about it. She knew how hard he worked during this period.
Seeing Yun Lintian come back safe and sound, Jiang Yingyue could finally put her heart with ease.
Yun Lintian turned to look at Lin Zixuan and took a deep breath before saying. “Master, I have a gift for you.”
Lin Zixuan looked at Yun Lintian in doubt.
Before she could say anything, the Gate of Beyond Heaven appeared beside Yun Lintian, and a figure was thrown out, crashing to the ground with a loud thud.
The expressions of Lin Zixuan and Jiang Yingyue changed drastically when they saw this figure. He was no other than Weilan Tianjun! 𝓫𝓭𝓸𝓋𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂
Weilan Tianjun’s current appearance could be described as extremely miserable. His eyes looked like pits of dead water. His skin was caked with dry blood, his face looked as haunted as a monster’s, and his body was so thin to the point only bones could be seen.
No one would believe that he was once the revered Azure Palace Master if they saw him right now.
During this period, he was tortured by the Soul Devouring Worm inside his body. Because he couldn’t use any profound energy, his condition was several times worse than Lin Zixuan’s back then.
“Ugh…” Weilan Tianjun could feel the change in environment, but he had no ability to see it as his eyes were blind.
Lin Zixuan calmly looked at Weilan Tianjun, a person she yearned to kill day and night. Her eyes which were filled with gentleness earlier were now turned terrifyingly cold.
Her entire body emitted an icy killing intent that could make everyone shudder in fright.
Perceiving the killing intent, Weilan Tianjun quivered and asked in a horse voice. “W-Who are you?… Yun Lintian?”
“Let me help you.” Yun Lintian waved his hand, sending a small vine to wrap around Weilan Tianjun’s eyes.
A moment later, the wound on Weilan Tianjun’s eyes was recovered, as well as his sight.
He quickly looked around and saw Lin Zixuan. His face immediately turned pale. “Y-You… Lin Zixuan!”
At this moment, he wished he could die right away. The scene where he put the Soul Devouring Worm inside Lin Zixuan’s body and prevented everyone from helping her appeared in his mind like a movie.
He’d rather face Yun Lintian than Lin Zixuan. After all, Yun Lintian had no deep enmity with him, while Lin Zixuan had a deep hatred for him.
“I’ll leave him to you, Master.” Yun Lintian said and exchanged a glance with Jiang Yingyue, preparing to leave.
However, Lin Zixuan suddenly said. “No need to leave. I will end soon.”
Yun Lintian and Jiang Yingyue looked at each other in surprise. They thought Lin Zixuan would definitely torture Weilan Tianjun, returning what he did to her, but it didn’t seem to be the case now.
“Weilan Tianjun.” Lin Zixuan said calmly, making Weilan Tianjun shudder. There was no joy or hatred in her eyes. The earlier killing intent had also vanished.
“If it was before, I would certainly let you know how I lived through the years.” Lin Zixuan said further. “However, the hatred I had for you is now completely gone… Do you know why?”
Weilan Tianjun’s facial muscles shuddered, but he didn’t utter a sound.
“It’s because my disciple has already done it for me.” Lin Zixuan said calmly. “He’s not only destroying your father and your people but also your prestige that you care so much… From today onward, the Azure Palace you’re proud of will become a remarkable historical downfall. People in the latter generations will learn how incompetent you are.”
Weilan Tianjun’s eyes widened in shock. As someone who cared about fame and dignity, this was undoubtedly the most vicious punishment…
