388: Chapter 388 Xuan Yin's Frustration

Tianlang Delegation residence.

Study room.

King Xuanyin sat alone before the desk, a virtual projection suspended in front of her.

On the projection, dense text and images unfolded.

They were all about Lin Yun's past.

This was the data urgently sent back from Qilin Kingdom.

She rested her chin on one hand, her brows furrowed into a knot.

The more she looked, the deeper they furrowed.

The first thing that caught her eye.

Was the record of Lin Yun's Martial Arts College Entrance Exam at the age of eighteen.

blood-qi value, 48 points.

The minimum admission standard for Martial Arts University in Qilin Kingdom was 100 points.

He hadn't even touched the threshold, let alone become a Martial Artist.

His peers at the same time, those with good Martial Arts Talent, had even broken through to the Second-Stage.

What did 48 points for Lin Yun mean?

It meant his Martial Arts Talent was as poor as it could get, so poor that it was almost impossible for him to embark on the path of martial arts.

King Xuanyin stared at this number for a long time.

Forty-eight years old, Sixth Order Completion, Spatial Golden Core, Void Barrier Major Achievement, defeating a Seventh-Stage Heavenly Spirit Body.

Such a Prodigy, at eighteen, actually only had a blood-qi value of 48 points?

She had seen countless Geniuses and Prodigies.

Never had anyone's growth trajectory been so contrasting.

Eighteen years old, blood-qi 48, not even considered a Martial Artist.

Thirty years later, Sixth Order Completion, defeating a Seventh-Stage.

Bridging an almost insurmountable chasm.

This span exceeded her understanding of the common principles of martial arts.

King Xuanyin did not continue to dwell on it; she suppressed the shock in her heart and continued to flip through.

At eighteen, Lin Yun married Su Yingxue.

From then on, everything began to change.

He experienced Awakening of the Fertility Holy Body, and his cultivation surged like it was riding a rocket.

In just a few months, he crossed the Martial Artist threshold, his blood-qi value broke through 100, and he officially stepped onto the path of martial arts.

Then, under Su Yingxue's active matchmaking, almost all the renowned beautiful women around Jiangcheng were married by him.

In a few years, Lin Yun broke through to Second-Stage Perfection, and then was admitted to Tianshui Martial Arts University.

He didn't stop his pace after entering the university.

His instructor, Shen Qingqiu.

Wen Yan, who watched him grow up since childhood.

Qiao Shiyu, Feifei, and Bai Lulu from the same cohort.

Senior sisters Zhao Muyi and Zhao Yiyi.

And An Yirou, Yun Shu, Ye Qianqian, Gu Qingcheng, and Liu Rumei from other colleges.

Anyone who had contact with him and caught his eye.

In the end, without exception, they all became his wives.

After arriving at Qilin Planet, the same thing continued to happen.

Qu Yanran, Xiaoxiao, Bu Yaoguang, Hua Liuli, Wang Shuyao, Wang Yulan...

Plus countless other women, all entered the Lin family.

Wherever he went, he married.

The number of wives by his side skyrocketed along with his cultivation.

Now there were sixty-two wives, and as many as seven hundred and ten descendants.

King Xuanyin's fingers tapped unconsciously on the desktop.

Her gaze swept over a line of text and stopped.

"Any outstanding and beautiful woman who has contact with Lin Yun eventually becomes Lin Yun's wife."

She stared at this sentence, unable to move away for a long time.

This sentence was like a needle, precisely pricking the most sensitive part of her heart.

She thought of herself.

She thought of those moments of losing composure in the corridor.

She thought of her chaotic heartbeat when being flirted with by Lin Yun.

She thought of the ripple deep within her Divine Soul mixed with Lin Yun's life Origin.

Isn't this sentence talking about herself?

King Xuanyin suppressed the messy thoughts surging in her heart and asked:

"Is the data true?"

Opposite the virtual image, a woman dressed in black bowed slightly:

"Replying to Your Highness, it is all true."

"To ensure no information was missed, this subordinate specifically used illusion techniques to examine a large group of relevant personnel."

"From Lin Yun's enlightenment teacher, classmates, and neighbors, to the professors, classmates, and alumni of Tianshui Martial Arts University."

"Cross-verification of multiple people's memories ensures that every piece of information is true and accurate."

King Xuanyin was silent for a moment:

"Continue."

The woman in black continued to report:

"According to our investigation, Lin Yun was a martial arts good-for-nothing since childhood, and no one thought highly of him before he was eighteen."

"It wasn't until after the Martial Arts College Entrance Exam ended that he met an expert and was taken as a Disciple."

"Under the guidance of his Revered Master, he immediately married Su Yingxue and underwent Awakening of the Fertility Holy Body."

"Afterwards, with Su Yingxue's assistance, he began to marry wives on a large scale."

"Su Yingxue has extremely high standards and only picks the most outstanding women; if it weren't for that, Lin Yun would have married even more."

King Xuanyin's eyes flashed slightly:

"His Revered Master? Has anyone seen him?"

The woman in black shook her head:

"No one has seen him."

"Everyone has only heard of such a Revered Master, but no one has ever seen him with their own eyes."

"This person is extremely mysterious and never shows his face."

King Xuanyin leaned back in her chair, tapping her fingers on the armrest.

Thump, thump.

The study was quiet for a long time.

She looked at the report again.

Her gaze fell once more on that key piece of information.

"Any outstanding and beautiful woman who has contact with Lin Yun eventually becomes Lin Yun's wife."

Her brows furrowed a little tighter.

The identity of that Revered Master remained a mystery. Who exactly is he?

Why did he know about the Fertility Holy Body that had never appeared before?

And why does he never show his face?

Is he afraid of being discovered, or is he unable to appear himself?

Countless guesses crossed King Xuanyin's mind, but none of them stood up to scrutiny.

She temporarily set this thought aside and pulled her attention back to the investigation results in front of her.

But uncontrollably, she thought of herself again.

She thought of those scenes of interacting with Lin Yun.

At this moment, they were as clear as if they were right in front of her.

Especially the tone and look in his eyes when he said, "Aren't you afraid of playing with fire and getting burned, Big Sister?"

...

King Xuanyin shook her head vigorously, shaking those scenes away.

Then she couldn't help but start thinking further.

If Su Xin were to have more contact with Lin Yun, what would happen?

Fairy Suxin.

Tai Su Dustless Ice Jade Dao Body.

A perfect person.

Cold and detached, untainted by the mortal world.

Her Physique, Dao Heart, and Divine Soul strength were all slightly higher than her own.

If she had contact with Lin Yun, would her reaction be the same as hers?

Would it be stronger?

Or would she be completely unaffected?

King Xuanyin was curious, but she could only be curious.

Su Xin had returned to the Moon Palace, leaving decisively.

She left right after the banquet ended, not even staying an extra day.

The time Lin Yun had contact with her was at most that brief verification on the competition field, and those few distant glimpses at the banquet.

The time was too short, so short that she couldn't tell if Su Xin had been affected at all.

If Su Xin had also been affected, then the influence of Lin Yun's Fertility Holy Body would far exceed her estimation.

...

King Xuanyin felt some annoyance; why was she so proactive?

Why did she stick to him so many times?

If she had kept her distance like Su Xin, would she not have had these troubles?

But it was too late for her to regret now; she had already made contact and had fallen for it.

She had no way to deal with Lin Yun's aura within her Soul.

She had already fallen.

King Xuanyin rubbed her temples.

She let out a long breath:

"Alright, I understand. Continue to keep an eye on the movements in Qilin Kingdom, and report at any time if there are any new developments."

The woman in black bowed: "Yes."

The virtual projection extinguished, and the study became quiet again.

Only the moonlight leaking in from the window and her soft breathing remained.

King Xuanyin leaned back in her chair, looking at the darkening sky outside the window, the same sentence echoing repeatedly in her mind.

"Any outstanding and beautiful woman who has contact with Lin Yun eventually becomes Lin Yun's wife."
