The situation is bad!

Bai Fengliu, a senior investigator of the Windspeaker Clan, was often responsible for spreading various news so his senses were much more sensitive than that of ordinary cultivators.

He instantly sensed that a storm targeting Lin Xun was about to come!

The reason was very simple: Lin Xun had risen too fast.

Half a year ago, his name was unheard of, and no one in the West Infinity World knew about his existence, but in just a few months, he strongly rose, showed off his extraordinary abilities and set off countless storms.

First, he fought an epic duel against the mysterious masked girl in Flame Capital, and then, he became enemies with the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan and became involved in a large-scale hunt and chase that attracted worldwide attention.

Now, under the watchful eyes of everyone, he defeated Sha Liuchan by himself and almost killed Qing Lianer...

Everyone knew that Demon God Lin was from the lower domain, so it was hard for them to believe that someone of his background could rise so fast, become a peerless genius, and gain such renown!

Therefore, it was easy to imagine what cultivators thought when rumors came out that Demon God Lin held remarkable items, including an unrivaled saint treasure.

Who did this? Lin Xun scrunched his brows, thinking it over. It was hard to identify the culprit because he had offended too many people ever since he arrived in the Ancient Wasteland Domain and there were too many suspects, for example, Xie Yutang, Sha Liuchan, Qing Lianer and Zhongli Wuji...

After hesitating for a long while, Bai Fengliu finally couldnt help asking, Little Brother Lin, do you...really have a saint treasure?

Lin Xun shot a sidelong glance at him and said, What do you think?

Bai Fengliu shook his head at once. I dont know, but whether you have a saint treasure or not, your current situation doesnt look optimistic. Tomorrow, the Dao Lantern Festival will start, yet something like this happened at this critical moment. Its clearly deliberate!

Lin Xun nodded as a cold light flashed in the depths of his black eyes. No matter who it was, if anyone planned to take advantage of the Dao Lantern Festival to deal with him, then they would have to pay a price for it!

Ultimately, you rose too fast, Yue Jianming remarked with a pensive look mixed with envy.

But he very quickly quelled his emotions and said seriously, Its easy to dodge a spear thrown in daylight, but difficult to defend against an arrow shot in the dark. The person who released the news is no doubt sinister and ruthless. They grasped the right time and made you become a target of everyone with almost no effort. When the Dao Lantern Festival starts, someone will definitely not be able to resist the temptation and jump out to attack you.

Bai Fengliu sighed, Its more than that. Everyone knows that Lin Xun comes from the lower domain. He has no backer and no support. He is alone. Anyone who wants to deal with Lin Xun wont have anything to worry or fear.

That was the truth. If Lin Xun was a successor from an ancient sect in the West Infinity World, then everyone would first weigh the consequences of dealing with him even though he possessed rare items and a saint treasure.

But clearly, Lin Xun didnt have such a background!

Seeing the two look so worried, Lin Xun was speechless for a moment before he reassured them, Whoever they are, at the Dao Lantern Festival, I already plan to kill Zhongli Wuji. If anyone else dares to jump out, then I can just kill them too.

He might have spoken casually, but his words seemed extremely domineering and murderous.

Immediately, both Bai Fengliu and Yue Jianming felt a chill, knowing that Lin Xuns killing intent had been ignited.

After a moment, Bai Fengliu scratched his head and said, Why do I suddenly feel pity for your opponents?

Yue Jianming agreed, I think so too.

In Star Cliff City, there seemed to be a storm gathering.

The rumors about Lin Xun caused too great of a sensation as they spread.

If it happened in the past, then many people would have scoffed at such rumors and never believed it.

But now, many cultivators had confirmed that Demon God Lin was truly a peerless figure. His strength was so fierce that even Sha Liuchan and Qing Lianer were no match for him.

His reputation also has been rising steadily, and he received various unexpected praises.

However, as the rumors about him spread, more and more people began to believe that he had received great blessings and opportunities and even possessed an unrivaled saint treasure. Otherwise, how could he, a young man from the lower domain, have such a terrifying combat power?

What kind of blessings and opportunities can actually transform a boy from the lower domain into a peerless genius who can suppress his peers?

Countless cultivators interests arose, and they made all kinds of speculations, thinking that Lin Xun had either obtained some kind of heaven-defying inheritance or some kind of cultivation treasures.

Some even suspected that Lin Xun had received the legacy of a Saint. Otherwise, where did he find an unrivaled Saint treasure?

In short, as all sorts of speculations and discussions circulated, it imperceptibly put ideas into the heads of many cultivators.

Even some genius figures donned unusual expressions as they discussed the rumor. Although they didnt openly say anything, many thoughts were swirling in their minds.

It makes sense. A young man from a lower domain has transformed into a peerless genius like a dragon scale becoming a dragon. I would find it more strange if he achieved this without any great opportunity or blessing.

This was Sha Liuchans reaction after hearing the news.

Zhuo Kuanglan from the Feather Sword Sect couldnt maintain calm anymore and asked, Junior Brother Xie, you and Lin Xun come from the same place, is the rumor true?

I Xie Yutang opened his mouth, but no words came forth. He didnt know how he should answer the question or what stance he should take.

A sullen look came to his face. Whether he denied it or admitted it, it would be no different from praising Lin Xun!

Junior Sister Lingxi, did that friend of yours really obtain some kind of incredible blessing or opportunities as rumored?

Even the Longevity Land successors couldnt help but ask Bai Lingxi.

Do you think that some so-called opportunity or blessing can help create everything he has achieved today? Bai Lingxi asked in response.

There was a trace of irritation on her beautiful and ethereal face. The path of cultivation is to cultivate your own mind. The so-called opportunity and blessing are nothing more than icing on the cake. The most important is still whether ones own mind is steady enough.

Everyone clearly didnt think so.

Only Yu Lingkong complimented her with a smile on his face, Junior Sister Lingxi is right. The rise of any peerless figure cant be just brought about by an opportunity. If not, why do we have to travel thousands of miles to participate in the Dao Lantern Festival?

He spoke casually but it exuded superiority and pride.

Everyone nodded. Indeed, Yu Lingkong was definitely blessed by the heavens in terms of opportunities.

After all, the Yu Clan had a real saint in charge!

Moreover, he enjoyed a transcendent status in the Longevity Land and was deeply favored by the elders of the clan. If he wanted any opportunities or treasure, then there was always a high chance of him getting them.

However, he didnt achieve the status that he had today because of blessings and good luck!

In this world, there was no lack of people with noble backgrounds and exceptional talents. But the majority would be influenced by other factors due to their bad nature and achieve nothing in the end, becoming arrogant and spoiled young masters and ladies. They would make little to no accomplishments on their cultivation paths and could only rely on the power and might of their clans to lord over other people.

Such people would never become peerless figures no matter how great of an opportunity or blessing they were given.

To everyones surprise, Yu Lingkong suddenly changed the subject, However, the fact that Lin Xun can achieve what he has today must be due to the help of opportunities and blessings beside his own self.

Everyone was shocked.

Even Bai Lingxi was taken aback.

Yu Lingkong continued, Otherwise, as a boy with no backing, support, and background, it is absolutely impossible for him to come to the Ancient Wasteland Domain by himself, let alone become a peerless figure in the West Infinity Word.

Someone couldnt help asking, Senior Brother Yu, so do you also believe in the rumors about Demon God Lin?

Yu Lingkong smiled. Whether I believe it or not, the facts are there. When the Dao Lantern Festival starts, we can confirm the truth.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Only Bai Lingxi felt a flurry of worry. Even Yu Lingkong agrees with the rumors, and his opinion will have an unimaginable impact on Lin Xun. This doesnt bode well for him!

Haha Granny Jin He smiled scornfully in a secluded courtyard upon hearing the news about Lin Xun.

She had experienced too many things in her life, so she could conclude straight away that someone wanted to exacerbate the situation by deliberately releasing the news, hoping to use someone else's knife to kill Lin Xun.

What despicable means. But its clear that the person who did this must not have the strength to compete with Lin Xun. Otherwise, they wouldnt resort to such a trick.

But having said that, its still very effective. It will put the kid Lin Xun in a bit of a pickle. Granny Jin He hit the nail on the head right away.

However, Ji Xingyao felt rather uncomfortable when she heard that.

She couldnt help furrowing her beautiful brows. Why did you suddenly mention that guy? Even if he is in a predicament, what does it have to do with me? I cant wait to see him make a fool of himself!

Granny Jin He said patiently, Miss, dont you think that now is the best time to recruit Lin Xun? He has no one to depend on, and no one to turn to. Hes all by himself. If we offer to take him in as a disciple of the sect, then that will not only solve his troubles, but our sect will also gain a peerless disciple. Its the best of both worlds.

Ji Xingyao snapped, Impossible! That bastard is too insufferable and shameless. I have already decided to teach him an unforgettable lesson at the Dao Lantern Festival. How can we recruit him into the sect? Dont even think about it again!

Granny Jin He smiled helplessly, muttering to herself, Back in Flame Capital, Lin Xun has indeed crossed the line with his action. Miss has never been treated like that in her life. Its just a pity that we lost out on the opportunity to take in such a superb seedling

In the early morning of the next day, dawn was piercing the sky and a peculiar wave of energy suddenly appeared between the sky and the earth, spreading outwards and soon engulfing the entire Star Cliff City.

Immediately, all the cultivators in the city were alarmed.
