149: Ji Kunchang

"System, is my Xueli baby not dead?" Lin Yang asked in his mind.

"No idea, Master."

The System stated that it currently had no function to investigate the life or death of others.

Lin Yang rolled his eyes in annoyance.

This darn System, when it was supposed to be useful, it was utterly useless.

"Is the one approaching Lin Yang?"

Just as Lin Yang was secretly wondering if Nangong Xueli had miraculously survived the destruction of the Academy, a sudden shout came from the sky not far away.

Lin Yang looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a black-haired young man in black clothes and pants slowly stepping through the air.

"Get lost! Don't disturb this Saint's thoughts!"

However, Lin Yang, whose heart was currently preoccupied with Nangong Xueli's safety, naturally had no intention of talking to this suddenly appearing stranger, so he impatiently waved his hand, intending to drive the other party away.

"Ding!"

However, not long after this black-clothed youth appeared, the System suddenly sent a red message.

"Detected the appearance of a Luck Child from the Upper Realm."

"Master has the following two choices:"

"Option One: Slay the Luck Child and receive a one-time reward of 6666 Luck Points!"

"Option Two: Become sworn brothers with him, making the Luck Child willingly become a subordinate, and receive a monthly reward of 1800 Luck Points!"

"Please make a choice within the time it takes for one stick of incense to burn."

"If no choice is made after the time limit, the System will default to Option One for the Master."

"Ah, this guy is a Luck Child from the Upper Realm?"

Hearing the System's prompt, Lin Yang had to re-examine the black-clothed youth before him.

With sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome face, and a majestic stride like a Dragon, he exuded an imposing aura, naturally radiating a unique temperament.

"What do you want with Lin Yang?"

Given the two different task options provided by the System, Lin Yang decided to first find out what this Luck Child from the Upper Realm wanted with him before making a decision.

After all, although choosing the first option and directly acting was convenient, and the reward of 6666 Luck Points was very tempting.

But if he could complete the second option...

That would be 1800 Luck Points every month for free!

A single full meal versus full meals every day.

Lin Yang could still distinguish which was better.

"Capture him and bring him back to the Upper Realm."

Hearing Lin Yang's question, the black-clothed youth responded with a cold expression.

"Capture him?"

Hearing this, Lin Yang's eyebrow twitched slightly, and he said with a half-smile, "Lin Yang is the Holy Emperor Sect's Saint, born with a Saint Body, the leader of the younger generation in the Central State, the most handsome man in the Lower Realm. You want to capture him and bring him back to the Upper Realm?"

"Can you even defeat him to say such a thing?"

"Of course!"

The black-clothed youth's words were concise and powerful, showing great confidence.

"Interesting. So, you're very good at fighting?"

Seeing this, Lin Yang also became somewhat interested in this overconfident Luck Child from the Upper Realm.

"I'm super good at fighting!"

The black-clothed youth crossed his arms, smiled coldly, pointed his thumb at himself, revealing a wild and unrestrained posture.

"What good is being good at fighting? To get by, you need influence and background. Which Dao lineage are you from in the Upper Realm?"

Seeing how arrogant the black-clothed youth was, Lin Yang smiled and continued to inquire about his origins.

"My name is Ji Kunchang, a descendant of the Ji Imperial Clan in the Upper Realm, ranking third among my generation. You can call me Third Prince, I can handle it," Ji Kunchang said with a wicked smile and a raised corner of his mouth.

"So it's a little punk!"

As soon as Lin Yang heard that this Luck Child from the Upper Realm was a descendant of Emperor Anlan, his eyes immediately turned cold.

Because...

He and the Ji Imperial Clan of the Upper Realm had a great feud.

Ji Bai, the born Supreme of the Ji Family, had died by his hand.

Moreover, he had previously used the power of a drop of blood to severely beat Emperor Anlan, the Old Ancestor of the Ji Imperial Clan.

Based on these two points, Lin Yang estimated that he probably wouldn't be able to complete the second option given by the System.

The second option, that was 1800 Luck Points every month!

What a pity...

"Where is your Sub-Emperor attendant?"

Before preparing to act, Lin Yang asked for final confirmation.

Back then, when Ji Bai descended to the Lower Realm, he was accompanied by a powerful attendant.

The Ji Kunchang before him might also have one or even several powerful attendants hidden nearby.

His emperor belt transformation time was limited, only lasting five minutes.

He had to clarify the situation before acting, making sure to capture Ji Kunchang and his attendants in one fell swoop!

Otherwise...

Since Aili had not accompanied him on this outing, once the transformation time expired, he would be in great danger.

"My relationship with my Family is strained. This time when I descended to the Lower Realm, my Family didn't arrange any attendants for me," Ji Kunchang said.

"No attendants?"

Lin Yang paused, blinking his eyes, half-believing, half-doubting.

"Then you came to the Lower Realm to capture Lin Yang to avenge that Ji Bai?"

After a moment of thought, Lin Yang probed again.

"Who has time to avenge that useless younger brother? If the Family hadn't forced me to the Lower Realm, I wouldn't bother with these trivial matters," Ji Kunchang pouted.

Lin Yang: "..."

"Among my peers in the Upper Realm, I am already unrivaled. I heard that Lin Yang of the Lower Realm has a Heavenly Saint Body, unmatched combat power, slaughters my Supreme Bone younger brother like a dog, and later even used forbidden power to beat my Old Ancestor. I was overjoyed when I heard this!"

When mentioning Lin Yang, Ji Kunchang also spoke with some excitement.

"Overjoyed..."

Lin Yang's mouth twitched slightly.

What the heck, what kind of person is this Luck Child from the Upper Realm?

His younger brother and Old Ancestor were beaten, yet he seemed very happy about it.

"That's right, overjoyed!"

Seeing Lin Yang's somewhat strange expression, Ji Kunchang spoke again: "A Lower Realm Prodigy as powerful as Lin Yang is truly something I've never seen in my life, and I'm very interested in him."

"I think he might even be able to be my opponent!"

"Coincidentally, the Family ordered me to descend to the Lower Realm to capture Lin Yang, so I came down with the flow."

Hearing Ji Kunchang's words, Lin Yang pondered.

It seems that the second option given by the System might not be impossible to complete...

"So... you came to the Lower Realm to find Lin Yang not to fight him to the death, but to challenge him, wanting to defeat him?"

After a moment of thought, Lin Yang probed again.

"Exactly!"

Ji Kunchang nodded.

"In that case, why are you waiting here in the Celestial Immortal Academy's ruins? Why don't you go directly to the Holy Emperor Sect to find him?" Lin Yang asked curiously.

"The Holy Emperor Sect has a Great Emperor, I wouldn't dare go!" Ji Kunchang said with an arrogant expression.

Lin Yang: "..."

Damn it!

He could say he didn't dare with such righteous indignation.

As expected of a Luck Child from the Upper Realm!

Truly unique!

This brother, I, Lin Yang, will definitely befriend him!
