章節 18: 18. Disciple Acceptance
"Ah?"
Jiang Xue hadn't recovered yet, her mind still filled with images of Chen Xuan violently kicking people's heads to pieces.
Although it was bloody and brutal, since it was against the people from the Blood Vulture Dojo, it felt incredibly satisfying!
Chen Xuan repeated with a smile, "I asked you, where is the Blood Vulture Dojo?"
Jiang Xue, still not fully comprehending, asked, "Wh-what for?"
Chen Xuan replied calmly, "To destroy it."
Jiang Xue quickly said, "I'll take you there."
Under Jiang Xue's guidance, the two of them arrived at the Blood Vulture Dojo, where they were immediately stopped at the entrance by the members of the hall.
One of them laughed and said, "Oh, isn't this our future Mistress of the Dojo? And who is this pretty boy you've brought along..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Chen Xuan crushed him with his bare hands, turning him into a cloud of blood mist that dispersed into the wind.
The members of the Blood Vulture Dojo froze for a moment, and then, like madmen, rushed into the hall to call for reinforcements.
However, before they could act, Chen Xuan's figure blurred and disappeared from sight.
Wherever he went, the members of the Blood Vulture Dojo exploded into blood mist, their remains hanging in the air. But not a drop of blood touched Chen Xuan.
"Who are you, daring to cause trouble at my Blood Vulture Dojo!"
A lean man in light clothing with sunken eyes, his face twisted with rage, glared at Chen Xuan. Glancing at the blood that covered the ground, his fury intensified, and murderous intent shone in his eyes.
Chen Xuan said indifferently, "The one who's going to take your life."
"Arrogant…"
Before the man could finish, Chen Xuan raised his hand, striking with a palm in midair.
Boom!
Luo Jiu instantly turned into a puddle of blood.
Chen Xuan let out a cold chuckle and once again vanished, reappearing next to Jiang Xue as if nothing had happened.
[Ding! Jiang Xue feels curious + surprised, Emotion Points +100]
Chen Xuan casually said, "Let's go. From now on, the Blood Vulture Dojo is erased from Eagle City."
So quickly?
Jiang Xue was too stunned to speak.
An entire martial hall, guarded by a powerful expert in the Form Creation Realm, was wiped out effortlessly!
If the Eagle Martial Dojo had offended him, wouldn't the same thing happen?
Jiang Xue's face turned pale, her mind numb as she followed behind Chen Xuan like a walking corpse.
However, her emotions were captured by Chen Xuan's system, earning him a large amount of emotion points.
It felt amazing!
Upon returning to the Eagle Martial Dojo, Jiang Xue quickly informed everyone that Chen Xuan had single-handedly annihilated the Blood Vulture Dojo in mere moments.
Everyone was overjoyed and wanted to celebrate.
Seeing how happy everyone was, Jiang Xue bit her lip as if she had made up her mind about something.

"Lin Xiao, how could you keep something so big from me?"
At the Lin family residence in Qingyang Town, a woman in her thirties, with soft, elegant features, was furiously confronting a man. Despite her gentle appearance, she was filled with anger.
Next to her stood a man in his forties, fists clenched tightly and brow furrowed.
"Father has already gone to Lin City. This matter concerns the reputation of the Lin family, and the Lin clan will not stand by idly," the man said, though even he lacked confidence in his words.
Liu Yan retorted, "What if they do?"
Lin Xiao hesitated, "If they do…"
"Lin Xiao, even though Qingtan is not our biological daughter, I've always treated her like my own. I can't just watch her walk into disaster!"
Wiping away tears, Liu Yan stood up abruptly.
"What are you planning to do?"
"Qingtan can't stay with the Lin family anymore. It's too dangerous."
"Q-Qingtan, why are you here?"
As the couple argued, Lin Xiao noticed someone standing at the doorway—it was Lin Qingtan. Dressed in light-colored clothing, her delicate face made her look incredibly sweet.
With a smile, Lin Qingtan shook her head resolutely.
"Father, Mother, I'm not leaving. No matter what happens, I'll stay with you."
"Qingtan, it's my fault. I couldn't protect you," Lin Xiao said, slumping into his chair with a heavy heart. He slammed his fist onto the table, shattering it into pieces.
Lin Qingtan walked over, saying, "Father, you've already done your best."
Lin Xiao suddenly spoke, "Qingtan, if your grandfather can't convince the Lin clan, you must escape. Don't worry about us."
Lin Qingtan shook her head, "Father, don't worry. Everything will be fine."
That night, after Lin Xiao and Liu Yan had fallen asleep, Lin Qingtan quietly got up and tiptoed outside. She entered the nearby woods and crushed a jade token engraved with black patterns.
In the next moment, a slim, shadowy figure mysteriously appeared.
The shadow was cloaked in a black robe, exuding an indescribable, chilling aura.
As soon as the shadow appeared, a faint voice echoed through the forest, "Qingtan, have you made up your mind?"
"I am willing to become your disciple, but I have one condition!" Lin Qingtan said, biting her lip.
"Is it about the marriage in two years?"
"You know?"
"Haha, when that person came, I sensed it."
"Then why didn't you stop him?"
Lin Qingtan reflexively asked.
The shadow laughed, "At the time, you weren't my disciple yet. Why would I interfere?"
In truth, she had her own reasons. She had been waiting for the perfect opportunity to ensure that the disciple she had sought for hundreds of years would willingly accept her as a master.
Lin Qingtan paused, then asked, "So, you can stop him?"
"He's just at the Nirvana Realm. No matter how talented he is, in two years, he won't surpass me."
The shadow spoke with confidence.
What? He's at the Nirvana Realm!
Lin Qingtan felt a wave of fear. She had heard that in the entire Great Yan Empire, there were only a handful of people at the Nirvana Realm. Even the strongest in the royal family was only at the First Stage Nirvana Realm!
The Lin family patriarch was also merely an ordinary Nirvana Realm practitioner. Despite that, he was powerful enough to elevate the Lin family to one of the four great families in the empire.
That man was that powerful?
But why was he after her?
The shadow, noticing Lin Qingtan's silence, spoke again, "If you become my disciple, someone like him—I'd destroy him with just one finger!"
Is she really that powerful?
Lin Qingtan didn't hesitate. "Alright, as long as you promise to help me deal with him, I will become your disciple!"
Under her cloak, the shadow's face broke into a pleased grin.
"Deal?"
"Deal!"
"Good! Then perform the disciple ceremony."
Without delay, Lin Qingtan performed the ceremony, and the shadow didn't mind the simplicity of it. Looking at her newly acquired disciple, whom she had sought for so long, she smiled warmly.
"So, can you make me stronger than Brother Lin Dong?"
"Your talent far surpasses Lin Dong's."
"Really?"
"I never lie."
The shadow nodded before adding, "However, his character and mindset are extraordinary, rare for someone his age. You can't match that. Also, it seems there are many secrets surrounding him, ones I can't even fathom."
"Enough about that. Can you help me surpass him or not?"
"Don't worry. With me around, it won't be difficult!"
Hearing this, Lin Qingtan finally let out a sigh of relief. Clenching her small, white fists, she thought to herself:
Brother Lin Dong, this time, let me protect you!
