305: If you don't accept a toast, you will be punished

Lin Xiao successfully entered the mental space through the Heavenly Star Dream-Seeking Art, but the surroundings were filled with mountain scenery. After looking around, he roughly understood the situation.

It seemed Chao Tianxiang, his close friend, was trapped in a mountain range, and the figure appearing not far in front of him was likely the one Mulan was looking for.

The other party had their back to him, seemingly Cultivating. Lin Xiao took two steps forward and tentatively called out.

"Hey."

"Who?!"

As soon as he spoke, the figure was instantly startled. The person, who was originally sitting cross-legged, immediately leaped up from the ground, and their oppressive aura burst forth. After feeling it for a moment, Lin Xiao knew the other party's Realm.

Second Realm Emperor… Seems a bit weak…

Lin Xiao muttered a few words, then shifted his attention to the person herself. This was also a woman, dressed in white robes, with a gentle face, looking quite elegant.

At this moment, her gentle face was full of vigilance. Looking at Lin Xiao, who had suddenly appeared before her, a blade appeared in her right hand and instantly pointed at Lin Xiao. She spoke, "Who are you, and why are you here?"

However, Lin Xiao did not answer her question immediately. Instead, he shifted his attention to the weapon in her hand.

It was a wooden saber, but the aura it emitted was clearly at the Supreme Emperor Weapon level. Coupled with the relevant characteristics he had learned in the System store earlier, he immediately recognized the origin of the saber before him.

The Supreme Emperor Weapon that Chao Tianxiang had stolen!

Seeing this, Lin Xiao felt a sense of relief. As long as it was still in her hands, everything was negotiable.

After organizing his thoughts in his mind, he forced a smile that he believed to be very harmonious and said gently, "Little girl, don't misunderstand. Your name is Wu Meng, right? This Seat has no ill intentions. I came here at the request of your friend, Chao Tianxiang."

"Hm? Chao Tianxiang?"

Hearing this, the woman named Wu Meng was stunned, but she did not immediately choose to believe Lin Xiao. Instead, she spoke again cautiously, "How do you prove it?"

"Uh…"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao remained silent for a moment, then raised the hairpin in his hand and raised an eyebrow, "This, can it prove it?"

As Lin Xiao raised his hand, the other party naturally saw the familiar hairpin at a glance. She was certainly not unfamiliar with it, and her expression immediately changed slightly.

"This is the hairpin I gave to Sister Tianxiang…"

"Right?"

Seeing that the other party's attitude had softened slightly, Lin Xiao quickly seized the opportunity and struck while the iron was hot.

"This can prove my identity, right?"

"No."

As Lin Xiao's voice fell, the other party shook her head again.

"Maybe you snatched this hairpin from my Sister Tianxiang. I still can't believe you."

"… You're taking advantage, aren't you?!"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao's already limited patience instantly vanished. The Ninth Realm pressure that had been suppressed for a long time instantly erupted, directly suppressing the other party.

"Ugh…"

Wu Meng, who had been standing upright, instantly turned pale. Her body began to tremble uncontrollably. At this moment, she felt an immense burden on her, so heavy that she couldn't even move her fingers.

"This, this is…"

Looking at the figure standing with hands down before her, a hint of fear instantly appeared in Wu Meng's eyes.

"High, High-Rank Emperor!"

No matter what, she was also a Second Realm Emperor, but now she was suppressed to the point of losing her combat ability. This would absolutely not happen even if a Mid-Rank Emperor came.

Thus, it was clear that the person in front of her must be a High-Rank Emperor, and perhaps even beyond Seventh Realm, Eighth Realm, or even Ninth Realm was possible.

"Unappreciative."

At this moment, Lin Xiao was also in no mood to maintain a smile. He directly put away the hairpin and snorted coldly, "Listen well, this Seat came to save you at someone else's request. It's best to cooperate; that way, everyone saves trouble. Understand?"

"Understood!"

This time, Wu Meng's reply was exceptionally decisive, without the slightest hesitation.

She understood. In front of such a powerful figure, if the other party wanted to kill her, it would be no different from crushing an ant. Therefore, the other party had no need to deceive her in this way.

"That's more like it."

Seeing that the other party had straightened her attitude, Lin Xiao also withdrew his pressure. Of course, he hadn't released all of it; he had only used a little.

If he went all out, even an Emperor several Realms higher would have to prostrate.

"Alright, tell me."

Lin Xiao casually conjured a grass chair with his foot and sat down, raising an eyebrow, "What's your situation now, and where are you located?"

"Ah?"

Hearing this, Wu Meng was momentarily stunned. As if seeing her confusion, Lin Xiao explained, "This Seat is not currently in front of you, but has entered your dream through a Divine Ability. Now, tell this Seat what the situation is, so I can save you."

"In a dream, huh…"

Hearing this, Wu Meng curiously surveyed her surroundings for a while, then withdrew her gaze and began to honestly recount to Lin Xiao.

As he listened, Lin Xiao's expression also became strange. In the end, he understood why the other party had vanished without a trace.

And after understanding, he couldn't help but sigh.

Strange things really happen everywhere…
