46: Lin Xiao battles the four prodigies

"Of course, while Saints are strong, they are not invincible after all."

"Besides our Lin Clan, there are also seven other Legacies of Great Saint Realm Experts within the Ancient Desolate Small World. These are all opportunities you must seize," Old Ancestor Bai Yun said, shaking his head with a chuckle.

"Seven more?! Old Ancestor, are you saying that besides our Lin Clan, the other seven major powers also each had a Great Saint perish within?" Lin Xiao continued to ask.

"Indeed. The eight Immortal-tier powers of the Ancient Desolate Dao Domain each had a Great Saint Realm Expert perish within the Ancient Desolate Small World," Old Ancestor Bai Yun replied.

"Then Old Ancestor, may I ask what exactly happened ten million years ago? Why did so many Experts from our Ancient Desolate Dao Domain perish within this Small World?" Lin Xiao asked, shocked.

He didn't understand what kind of events could have transpired ten million years ago.

To have erupted into such a large-scale Holy War, where even eight Great Saint Experts died. This number was truly terrifying.

"Jue Tian Palace," Old Ancestor Bai Yun said, his expression solemn as he uttered these three words after hearing Lin Xiao's question.

He then continued, "You will slowly learn about these things later."

"For now, what you need to do is prepare well and then achieve outstanding results in the upcoming journey to the Ancient Desolate Small World," Old Ancestor Bai Yun stated.

Lin Xiao nodded, remembering the three words 'Jue Tian Palace'. "Understood, Old Ancestor. When will the Ancient Desolate Small World open?"

"In two days," Old Ancestor Bai Yun said, then vanished.

"Wait..." Lin Xiao watched Old Ancestor Bai Yun about to leave and quickly shouted, but it was already too late.

"Sigh, he always leaves so quickly," Lin Xiao sighed.

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!"

"Brother Xiao, your cultivation has grown stronger again!"

"Little Brat, your cultivation fluctuations are so strong. How about we fight again?" After Old Ancestor Bai Yun left, the four of them greeted Lin Xiao.

Except for Lin Kuang, who was still a bit mischievous, the others were fine.

Lin Xiao smiled and nodded at Lin Wuyuan and the others. "Ten years without seeing each other, everyone has changed quite a bit."

Then he looked at Lin Kuang. "A fight it is! After ten years of secluded cultivation, my hands are itching," Lin Xiao said with a smile.

He just wanted to test his strength, and now there was a ready-made punching bag delivered right to his door.

"Alright, let's go quickly!" Lin Kuang said, dragging Lin Xiao, intending to rush to the Lin Clan's training grounds.

But halfway there, Lin Xiao stopped him.

"Wait a moment. You can fight me, but you have to agree to one condition," Lin Xiao said with a smile, looking at Lin Wuyuan and the others beside him.

"What condition?" Lin Kuang was stunned.

The others were also somewhat confused and looked over curiously.

"I want all four of you to come at me together," Lin Xiao said.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was stunned.

"What? You said you want to fight all four of us?" Lin Kuang asked, looking at Lin Xiao with a bewildered expression, thinking he had misheard.

"Brother Xiao, isn't that being a bit overconfident?" Lin Haotian also stepped forward, looking at Lin Xiao with a puzzled expression.

Although he genuinely believed Lin Xiao was strong, fighting one against four was a bit too far-fetched, wasn't it?

While he himself was a small fry, Lin Kuang and the other two all had the strength of Peak King Sealing Realm. Their combined efforts could even defeat two Half-Saint Realm Experts.

Lin Wuyuan and Lin Jiuge, however, frowned slightly as they looked at Lin Xiao, feeling that he was looking down on them.

"I'm not kidding. I just want to test how much stronger I've become after these ten years of secluded cultivation. I originally wanted to test it with Old Ancestor, but I didn't expect him to run so fast," Lin Xiao said, looking at everyone with a hint of helplessness.

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod.

"We agree to your request, but after the fight, I want you to fight each of us individually," Lin Wuyuan stepped forward and said.

Lin Jiuge thought this was a good idea and nodded in satisfaction. "Your Highness, what do you think of this plan?"

"Of course," Lin Xiao said with a smile.

It was best if these few agreed. He was only afraid that they wouldn't agree. As for other conditions, they were all negotiable.

"Then let's hurry up," Lin Kuang also thought this was a good idea and urged them from the side.

Soon, everyone arrived at the Lin Clan's training platform.

Because it was still broad daylight, many Lin Clan Disciples were gathered at the training grounds.

When they saw Lin Xiao and his group walking towards them, they couldn't help but excitedly start discussing.

Their eyes revealed endless admiration and fanaticism, if not for...

"Oh my god, it's Young Lord Lin Xiao and his four attendant sequences! Are they here for a duel?"

"Ten years without seeing him, Young Lord's aura has become terrifyingly stronger."

"Don't call him Young Lord, call him Your Highness. Young Lord Lin Xiao is the God Son personally appointed by our Lin Clan Old Ancestor. We must show him respect. We can't get carried away just because he's good to us."

"Oh, oh, oh, I forgot, I forgot. It's Your Highness. I used to call him that out of habit, and it's hard to change."

"Alas, look, Your Highness and his four attendant sequences are all walking onto the arena."

"Hiss, could Your Highness be planning to fight one against four?"

"I think that's possible."

"But can Your Highness win? One against two is understandable, but one against four, isn't that a bit too Heaven-Defying?"

"Yes, Lord Lin Wuyuan and Lord Lin Jiuge, I heard that a few years ago, they teamed up to slaughter two Half-Saints from our Lin Clan's enemy forces. Their strength is unusually terrifying."

"I think so too. Perhaps Your Highness just wants to test the gains from his ten years of secluded cultivation."

"Why do us junior Disciples care so much? Anyway, this is all about His Highness. We just need to watch the show."

"Yes, yes. His Highness has been in seclusion for ten years. I'm really curious about his strength now."

As the discussions spread wider and wider, it wasn't long before countless Disciples from the entire Lin Clan were frantically rushing towards the training grounds, and among them were many Lin Clan Elders.

"Hurry up! I heard Young Lord Lin Xiao is fighting one against four at the training grounds. If we're late, we'll miss it."

"Really? Are you lying to me?"

"Why would I lie to you? Go or don't go, I'm going anyway."

"Don't, let's go together! Can't I just go?"

"If you're going, hurry up. Don't be like the Author, so slow and dawdling with his writing."

... "Your Highness, shall we start now?"

At this moment, on the Lin Clan's training grounds, Lin Wuyuan looked at Lin Xiao and said with a cold expression.

Terrifying Qi swiftly surged throughout his body, and the entire Lin Clan training grounds were instantly covered in ice and snow.
