291: Something unexpected happened

As the Wuji Palace members Underwent Tribulation, all the forces on the Profound Sword Continent could no longer sit still.

Basically, after much deliberation, all the powerhouses made a decision and began to seclude themselves to Breakthrough the shackles that had held them back for countless years due to fear of falling.

They all knew that if they didn't fight with all their might now, they might not even have the chance to fight in the near future.

The Breakthrough of the many powerhouses from Wuji Palace successfully transformed their complacent mindset into a sense of crisis.

For a time, the entire Profound Sword Continent became lively, and looking around, there were dark clouds gathering and thunder striking almost everywhere.

Figures shuttled through these lightning bolts; some succeeded, their Aura reaching a higher level, while others bled across the sky, a generation of powerhouses falling, their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

And while the outside world became lively, in the Black Domain, Lin Xiao had already led the Wuji Palace members back to Black Horn City.

It was still the same courtyard and the same members as before, but compared to before their Breakthrough, everyone's faces showed even greater joy.

A Breakthrough in strength is a good thing no matter where it happens.

Among them, White Shallow and Tong Yuan were the most excited. Feeling the abundant power within their bodies, they wished they could immediately go find Du Meng, Ouyang Jie, Mulan, and others to spar and satisfy their craving.

The shackles that had trapped them for countless days and nights were finally broken, and they were no longer the bottom two among the Title Great Emperors.

Thinking of this, the two subconsciously cast their gazes upon the figure at the head of the table, their faces filled with emotion.

To be honest, when they first joined Wuji Palace, they were quite unwilling, as they had been forced to join under threat of force.

Later, after a period of getting along, they gradually adapted and also felt that having a force to rely on was quite comfortable.

Now, they were truly convinced and submitted. Without the opportunities granted by the other party, they would still be at the Seven Realm Great Emperor level, 100%, not knowing when they would achieve their current cultivation.

“Hmm?”

As soon as Lin Xiao sat down, he felt someone looking at him. Turning his head, he saw the two looking at him and couldn't help but raise a hand to touch his face, asking curiously,

“What, is there something on my face?”

Hearing this, the two shook their heads one after another, then simultaneously raised their cups and spoke with a smile.

“Palace Master, we toast to you.”

“Uh-huh.”

Hearing this, Lin Xiao naturally raised his cup in response. Looking at the lively scene in the courtyard, the smile on his face also grew wider.

The current Wuji Palace could now truly protect itself on the Profound Sword Continent.

If he hadn't existed, the Heavenly Profound Continent would have been directly annexed by the Profound Sword Continent, as the gap between the two was simply too great.

But now, with the accumulation of his many resources, even without him, the strength of Wuji Palace was enough to rival the Sword Tower on the entire Profound Sword Continent.

The mere existence of Tong Yuan and White Shallow alone meant that Wuji Palace feared neither Wan Du Valley nor Jinmu Valley.

As for the commotion outside, he had naturally noticed it. Lin Xiao only paid attention to it for a moment before ignoring it.

What if they Breakthrough? All of them combined wouldn't be enough for him to defeat with one hand.

Besides, the speed at which he helped his own powerhouses Breakthrough was incomparable to that of other forces.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao subconsciously picked up a pastry from the table and put it into his mouth. After swallowing it, just as he was about to pick up his tea for a sip, his hand suddenly paused.

“Hmm?”

Lin Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and his gaze shifted from the teacup to the distant Void Realm. As if he had discovered something, he raised his hand with interest.

“Interesting.”

As he murmured, Lin Xiao's outstretched right hand clenched slightly, and with his movement, an empty space a thousand meters away instantly collapsed. Immediately after, a figure fell out of the space, staggering two steps before regaining his balance.

“Who?!”

The commotion here naturally attracted the attention of others. Tong Yuan and White Shallow disappeared from their original spots after seeing that figure. When they reappeared, they were already beside the latter, surrounding him. The Supreme Emperor Weapons in their hands were unsheathed, their tips pointing at the target, while a overwhelming Killing Intent surged from their bodies.

Such immense pressure and Aura instantly caused the figure in the very center, who had been standing upright, to bend over, with constant creaking sounds.

“Wait, wait, please show mercy!”

Just then, the figure spoke anxiously, and seeing this, Lin Xiao then slowly opened his mouth.

“Bring him over.”

“Yes.”

Hearing this, White Shallow, Tong Yuan, and the others swarmed forward. They quickly subdued the uninvited guest and even used a Seal technique to Seal all the spiritual power within his body, turning him into a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Subsequently, under the escort of the crowd, after a few breaths, this fellow appeared before Lin Xiao, kneeling there.

Only then did Lin Xiao have time to examine the other party.

The person before him was a young woman, appearing to be in her twenties or thirties, with a beautiful face and dressed in a silver feathered armor, which looked quite magnificent.

However, after being suppressed by White Shallow and the others just now, she now had a look of utter despair on her face, appearing quite listless.
