Chapter 220 Note from Black Glory

It was too late to dodge. At the most critical juncture, Remnant Snow chose to save himself. He made a cross with his arms, protecting his head and chest.

Bang!

An arrow silently pierced through his left arm and tore a hole into his chest.

Blood spurted everywhere while Remnant Snow let out a muffled grunt. He staggered to the ground as a sharp, stabbing pain shot throughout his body. Everything grew darker and he almost slipped into unconsciousness.

Remnant Snow grimaced and gasped for breath. He broke out into cold sweat and shuddered at the thought that the arrow was only an inch away from piercing through his heart.

If he hadnt protected his heart with his left arm

Remnant Snows face was deathly pale, and he couldnt help but shiver from the piercing pain. He didnt dare to think about it any more. He quickly swallowed several different types of medicine to control his injuries. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and endured the pain to get up.

Fortunately for him, his opponent didnt shoot another arrow. Otherwise he would have lost his life.

However, when Remnant Snow surveyed the surroundings again, he couldnt find any traces of his opponent. Clearly, his opponent had taken the chance to escape.

Remnant Snow didnt know whether he should be happy or angry. He stood alone in the downpour, his expression indescribably complex.

This was the first time that he had failed a mission in all his years of being an assassin!

Adding to that, he was defeated by a wounded Human Dipper teenager!

However, Remnant Snow didnt feel ashamed because he knew that he was already very lucky to have survived.

Lin Xun...I will remember you he murmured. Enduring the sharp pain, he turned around and left.

He still hadnt figured out what the little round monster that suddenly appeared was or how it could swallow his strongest arrow in one mouthful.

The rain continued to pour down in buckets. Lin Xun ran awkwardly in the rain with Jiujiu constantly chirping out loud in his arms.

Lin Xun smiled wryly. Im on the verge of collapsing yet the little thing is still cheering happily. What a heartless little thing.

Lin Xun indeed almost couldnt hold on any longer.

He had almost consumed all his strength with the last arrow he fired. Now, he could only rely on his physical strength to run.

Otherwise, how would he have spared Remnant Snows life?

If theres a chance in the future, I will play with him again!

As Lin Xun cast his mind back to what happened, he couldnt help but feel bitter and helpless. It couldnt be helped. I had to fight on my own.

However, Lin Xun was still very satisfied with the battle result. At least the majority of the cultivators dispatched from the dozens of sects and factions suffered heavy damage and he protected his life in the end. The result was already considered very good.

Applause suddenly broke out, which seemed particularly ear-piercing in the rainy night.

Hey hey, hey, really impressive. The students who graduated from Blood Kill Camp indeed have the strength to take on one thousand people as rumored.

Xue Jins figure appeared with a roar of rough laughter. He studied Lin Xun with a hint of a smile and a tinge of admiration in his eyes.

Xue Jin had been watching Lin Xuns movements and performance since the battle that night began.

In truth, Lin Xuns strength and tenacity had far exceeded Xue Jins prediction.

He thought that it would already be pretty good if Lin Xun could hold on half the time he did. But the result proved that Lin Xun could get rid of the trouble even without his help.

Of course, this was as long as a cultivator like Yao Tuohai didnt appear.

Even so, it was already amazing for a teenager at the Human Dipper Stage to achieve that.

At least, Xue Jin knew that no one could win an impossible battle like Lin Xun did among the youngsters in the empire!

Therefore, Xue Jins applause and compliment were not teasing, but genuine.

Lin Xun was able to completely relax when he saw Xue Jin. He felt his body ache badly and was incredibly weak. He couldnt help but grimace as he said, I thought you wouldnt show up tonight!

Xue Jin burst into laughter. Didnt I say earlier that I will show up when you need me? But I found that you didnt even need me to help you tonight.

Lin Xun couldnt help but roll his eyes. I have already killed people and the battle seems to be over. I leave the rest of the matter to you.

He closed his eyes and fainted.

Trembling, Xue Jin frantically stepped forward and held Lin Xuns body. After a brief examination, his expression altered slightly.

He could sense that Lin Xun was on the verge of running out of fuel. Adding to this, his chest was badly wounded. He couldn't imagine how Lin Xun could survive until now in that state.

Xue Jin fell silent for a moment as he looked at Lin Xuns pale, handsome face and his lips clamped together firmly. Then, his eyes flashed a complicated look and he sighed, Never mind, Ill do one more favor for you.

As he was speaking, he carried Lin Xun and disappeared into the rainy night.

It was unknown when the rainstorm that enveloped Haze City had come to a stop, revealing the specks of particularly bright stars in the dark night sky.

In a magnificent and exquisite courtyard in Jadelight Pavilion.

Qi Xiaokong was sitting alone in a pavilion in the courtyard, drinking leisurely. He enjoyed drinking alone deep in the night.

Qi Xiaokong was the leader of the Jadelight Pavilion and also the Qi Clan. He had a high status and was a well-known influential figure in Haze City.

I wonder how the matter tonight is going, Qi Xiaokong suddenly asked aloud.

On the side of the pavilion stood an old servant. He was taken aback by the question but he quickly responded with a smile, Master, you dont need to worry about such a trivial matter. Dozens of forces were dispatched together. I believe the boy had long been killed.

Qi Xiaokong smiled. It might be a trivial matter, but the nature of it is different. I just hope that they handle the matter cleanly and dont let it spread out, so as not to damage our reputation.

The old servant agreed, Of course.

Qi Xiaokong gave an acknowledging nod and didnt mention the matter again. For an important and influential man like him it was indeed a trivial matter to kill a child from a poor background.

At that moment, the sound of panicked footsteps outside the courtyard made Qi Xiaokong wrinkle his brows. Go and see what is going on.

The old servant quickly took the order and left. Before long, when he returned, there was a black note in his hand.

The paper of the note was extremely special. It was entirely jet black like the purest and darkest night and was marked with a detailed Black Glory Flower pattern.

Master, this is a note that someone sent here and they insisted it be handed to you, the old man reported.

Qi Xiaokong swept an inadvertent glance over the note but his pupils rapidly shrank and his body stiffened when he saw the Black Glory Flower pattern.

He grabbed the note, opened it, and saw the single sentence written on it, Tonights matter is over.

It was a simple sentence without any threatening words, but Qi Xiaokongs eyes were fixed on the sentence. His imposing and graceful face had turned grave.

The sentence was indeed simple but when it appeared on a black paper marked with the Black Glory Flower, it felt like an unquestionable order!

Qi Xiaokong was reminded of many rumors when he saw the flower. His heart trembled uncontrollably and his expression changed indefinitely.

Black Glory Note!

Qi Xiaokong had never thought that he would receive such a note. He couldnt compose himself.

The old servant looked a little bewildered. He sharply noticed that Qi Xiaokongs expression had turned strange. He couldnt help but feel apprehensive. Could the mysterious black note have some sort of terrifying background?

His master was one of the top influential figures in Haze City yet he seemed incredibly fearful of a note. This was too unbelievable!

After a long while, Qi Xiaokong took a deep breath, slowly put down the black glory note and muttered, Who said that kid is from a poor background? Who said it!?

His voice sounded like an angry roar as he reached the end of the sentence and his face grew grave. The old servant trembled and was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

Father, tonights operation has failed! said an exasperated voice.

At that moment, a figure suddenly pushed open the courtyards gate and stormed in.

It was Qi Yunxiao. He rushed into the pavilion in three or two steps and said anxiously, Father, that boy Lin Xun is still alive. We must take action. We must not let him live or our Jadelight Pavilion will lose face!

Qi Xiaokong abruptly raised his head, his eyes terrifying like a wild beast wanting to devour someone. He couldnt help roaring inwardly. He sprang up and lashed out, slapping his face. The slap drew blood from his nose and cheeks and sent him flying.

Bastard! Trash! If that kid dies tonight, dont even think about living! he roared.

Qi Yunxiao was utterly stunned. He stared at his father in disbelief, puzzled why he was so furious.

The old servant hurriedly consoled him, Master, Young Master Yunxiao dont know anything. If he had known that the situation was this serious, he definitely wouldnt be this reckless.

Qi Xiaokong also knew that he shouldnt lose his temper. He inhaled deeply, suppressing his anger. Then, he said through gritted teeth, From now on, dont go out to create trouble for Lin Xun. I will kill whoever dares to ignore my order!

He turned around and left.

The single sentence on the black glory note had made Qi Xiaokong realize that their so-called operation of killing the chicken to warn the monkey had hit a wall!

Qi Yunxiao clasped his red and swollen face, feeling wronged and confused. Although he didn't know the reason for his fathers change of attitude, he guessed that it was related to Lin Xun.

Could that guy have some sort of impressive background?

For the first time, Qi Yunxiao realized that he didnt know much about Lin Xun.

A similar situation happened in the Yuan Family, Zheng Family, Zhou Family and several other forces in Haze City at the same time.

The forces who had participated in the operation to deal with Lin Xun that night, all, without exception, received a mysterious black glory note.

Then, every force fell into panic. Many even held a meeting overnight to discuss the matter.

All that was due to a black glory note. There was only a single sentence on the note: Tonights matter is over and this must not be leaked.

It seemed ordinary, but it was filled with a mysterious magical power. It caused a wave of panic to sweep over the dozens of forces.

In the end, they reached a unanimous conclusion: The youngster called Lin Xun wasnt an ordinary child from a poor family like they had thought!

A behemoth shrouded in the darkness of the empire had to be behind him!

Terror.

Panic.

Anxiety..

Worry.

All sorts of emotions spread among the forces.

In the governors office, Liu Wujun fell silent for a moment when he received the news.

Only after a long moment did he sigh out loud, Those idiots actually treated a youngster, who is connected with the Black Glory Sacred Hall, as a child of a poor background! What is wrong with their heads?!

Haze Academy.

Wei Lingzhen was stunned for a while when he heard about the news. Then, he said with a complicated expression, Brother Dongtu, it seems it will be very difficult for you to recruit this boy into the army again.

Du Dongtu didnt take it seriously, instead he burst into laughter, As long as he is alive, that will be enough. The rich and powerful forces have been taught a lesson after suffering such a big loss. At least, they wont dare to act so wild and unrestrained when they target the poor again.

Wei Lingzhen said ruminatively, But you should know that, even if Lin Xun really came from a poor family, his identity has become completely different with this relationship.

Du Dongtu nodded and then said with a frown, Its just that it might not necessarily be a good thing to be connected to them.

Wei Lingzhen chuckled, Thats not for us to be concerned about.

The Wen Clan.

Wen Mingxiu almost couldnt believe what she heard.

Lin Xun had survived the siege of cultivators dispatched by over a dozen forces.

Hahaha, Mingxiu, you did a good job this time. Our Wen Clan didnt do anything to that kid and avoided huge trouble!

Wen Changtian, the clan leader of the Wen Clan, threw his head back and laughed loudly. He praised Wen Mingxiu again and again.

Wen Mingxiu couldnt help but ask, Father, what actually happened?

Wen Changtian casually repeated the news he just received. Then he exclaimed emotionally, I didnt expect it, I really didnt expect it!

Wen Mingxiu was utterly dumbstruck. Her emotions tossed and turned in her heart like the sea, unable to calm down.

For the first time, she realized that not only Blood Kill Camp was standing behind Lin Xun

If Lin Xun knew that the impact of him slaughtering so many enemies couldnt be compared to a black note, how would he feel?
