241: The New Emperor Arrives

Ten minutes later, Lin Xiao was at his wit's end, looking at Gu Xin Yin, who was still crying uncontrollably in his arms.

He hadn't expected that this little one, despite her small appearance, had a truly loud voice, and after crying for a long time, there was no sign of it weakening.

Should he say that she was truly worthy of being the child of two Emperors?

“I say, Little White…”

Lin Xiao raised his hand, rubbing his forehead, and turned to say something to the White Tiger, only to see a spatial passage appear there at some point, with only a tiger tail sticking out.

Upon hearing his words, the tiger tail twitched, then swiftly retracted into the passage, which then disappeared, leaving only the crying Gu Xin Yin and the black-faced Lin Xiao.

“Damn it, what use is this mount to me?”

Lin Xiao cursed under his breath, then his Emperor's Will spread throughout Wuji Palace. After sensing around, he was immediately speechless.

It seemed as if everyone had made a pact today; each was busier than the last, either bustling outside or Cultivating in seclusion within the Palace, or refining this and that.

After looking around, it seemed he was the idlest of them all.

“Oh, right!”

Just then, Lin Xiao seemed to recall something, his eyes instantly lighting up. He then opened the System warehouse, looking at the two Great Emperor Realm summoning cards, a smile playing on his lips.

He had almost forgotten that when he subdued the Dragon, Phoenix, and Qilin two days ago, the System had given him a pile of rewards.

At that time, he was busy so he didn't bother with them, and in the following days, because life was too comfortable, he also forgot. If it weren't for the child being too noisy today, he wouldn't have remembered.

“System.”

Looking at the two summoning cards, Lin Xiao silently chanted in his mind.

“Use two Great Emperor Realm summoning cards.”

“Ding!”

As Lin Xiao's words fell, the System's mechanical voice resounded in his mind.

“Great Emperor Realm summoning card used successfully. Congratulations to the host for obtaining Great Emperor Realm powerhouses Xiao Yan and Lin Dong.”

As the System's broadcast ended, two spatial passages appeared out of thin air. Immediately after, two young men walked out from them and simultaneously bowed to Lin Xiao.

“Xiao Yan (Lin Dong) greets the Palace Master.”

Lin Xiao raised his hand and gently waved, and an invisible spiritual force instantly lifted the two of them. After roughly sizing them up, a faint look of surprise appeared on his face.

No other reason, it was simply that the strength of the two in front of him was somewhat beyond his expectation; they were both Great Emperor of the Fourth Realms, just like him.

Lin Xiao had used summoning cards so many times that he knew the strength of those summoned was always random.

He hadn't expected his luck to be so good this time, directly giving him two Great Emperor of the Fourth Realms.

After a brief moment of surprise, a broad smile appeared on Lin Xiao's face.

“You've come at just the right time.”

Lin Xiao took a step forward, simultaneously handing over the wailing Gu Xin Yin, and said solemnly,

“You two, I'm giving you a arduous task. This child is temporarily entrusted to your care. Return her to me in five days.”

“Yes!”

Hearing this, the two naturally had no objections. After Xiao Yan took Gu Xin Yin, he looked at the latter, who was still crying loudly, and Lin Dong beside him frowned, saying,

“She’s crying, is she hungry?”

“Probably.”

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, then handed the child to Lin Dong. He then flashed and disappeared from the spot, reappearing about three minutes later, but with a small stone bowl in his hand, filled with milky white liquid.

“She should like this.”

Xiao Yan said, bringing the bowl closer. Gu Xin Yin, who had been crying, immediately stopped. Then, her two small hands clasped the rim of the bowl, and she began to drink in small sips.

“Well, I’ll be.”

Seeing this, Lin Xiao's eyes widened instantly, and he said in astonishment,

“You’ve got a trick up your sleeve, Xiao Yan.”

“The Palace Master overpraises me.”

Xiao Yan bowed slightly, a faint smile on his face.

“It was just a stroke of luck.”

“…”

Hearing this, Lin Xiao vaguely felt as if he had heard these words somewhere before, but after thinking for a while and not recalling, he shook his head and cast it out of his mind, turning to walk towards the hammock.

“Then I’ll trouble you two. I’ll go to sleep for a bit.”

Lin Xiao had wanted to sleep earlier, but that little girl had been so troublesome that he couldn't sleep at all. Now it was fine; with someone to take care of her, he could finally enjoy a comfortable nap.

When Lin Xiao woke up again, it was already dusk, and the orange-yellow sunlight shone down, changing the color of the entire Wuji Palace.

“Comfortable.”

Lin Xiao stretched lazily and then sat up from the hammock. He then saw two figures sitting at the stone table not far away, none other than Xiao Yan and Lin Dong.

What attracted Lin Xiao the most was the tiny figure hopping and bouncing on the ground, wearing a belly wrap, slowly walking forward. She seemed a bit unpracticed, but it was indeed Gu Xin Yin.

“Hmm?”

Lin Xiao was also stunned to see this, and then his mouth immediately twitched.

Goodness, as expected, good genetic inheritance truly makes a difference. Children born to two Emperors are truly Geniuses.

How long had it been? She could even walk now. To describe her in a phrase often used by the Disciples, she was truly a Prodigy.

“Palace Master x2”

Upon seeing Lin Xiao awake, the two also greeted him. Lin Xiao waved his hand, then came and sat at the table. He casually picked up some grapes nearby, popped them into his mouth, and said indistinctly,

“Oh, right, you two can go open up an Immortal Cave for yourselves on Middle Peak later, or in a Secret Realm, whichever you prefer.”

“Yes.”

After reminding the two, Lin Xiao opened the System warehouse again.

After summoning the two of them earlier, he had remembered this matter. At that time, the System had given him quite a few rewards. Since he was bored now, he decided to see what they were.

After clicking open the warehouse, the first thing that came into view was a shimmering silver long staff, with five small characters engraved in the middle of the staff body: “As-You-Wish Iron Rod.”

“Good stuff.”

Lin Xiao took it out and meticulously caressed it on his lap. Feeling the cool touch emanating from it, his face was filled with delight.

Although this was of the same type as the Celestial White Jade Pillar and the Jia Hai Purple Gold Beam, their uses were different.

The Celestial White Jade Pillar felt heavier to Lin Xiao, while the Jia Hai Purple Gold Beam was lighter. As for the As-You-Wish Iron Rod in his hand, he felt it had the best hand-feel.

He had to say, the System really understood him. All the weapons it sent were staves. According to this situation, he might even be able to collect the entire series next time.

While caressing the staff, Lin Xiao's attention returned to the warehouse. Next, five Emperor Spirit Pills appeared before his eyes.

These could be used to help Emperors Cultivate and break through bottlenecks, so they were naturally good things. He would keep them for now and could use them later to help Bone Cultivator and others improve their strength.

Lin Xiao skipped over the Medicinal Pills, and then several large characters appeared before him.

Teleportation Array Crafting Technique.

Good stuff!

The moment Lin Xiao saw this, this thought popped into his mind. In the Tianxuan Continent, there was no such tool as a teleportation array that could transport people in large quantities to a designated location.

Therefore, even Great Emperor Realm powerhouses could only travel honestly. But with this, it would be much more convenient.

Lin Xiao took a look; the difficulty of manufacturing the teleportation array was not very high. Although the Materials were rare, for Wuji Palace, which controlled the resources of the entire Tianxuan Continent, it was not a problem at all.

Lin Xiao decided that he would promote this during the next general meeting.

“Finally, it’s…”

Lin Xiao shifted his gaze to the last item slot. Looking at the pure white Talisman with densely packed characters on it, his eyes narrowed slightly. He looked at the words below and murmured,

“Tongtian…Immortal Talisman.”
