6: Kunlun Mirror destroyed, Xiao and Zhang split

“How dare you!”

Xiao Dong’s eyes blazed with fury, and he struggled to get up and resist, but Jiang Lin kicked him back to the ground.

“This… he didn’t even lose control of his Heart-Nature?”

Jiang Lin was a little surprised; this kid was truly patient!

He raised his hand and delivered another slap, then turned to Zhang Wanmeng and said, “Wanmeng, do you feel better now that I’ve punished this kid like this?”

Based on his understanding of Zhang Wanmeng, she would surely despise his actions.

She definitely wouldn’t reply to him.

He just wanted to provoke Xiao Dong with that sentence.

‘You’re being humiliated in front of a woman, and you can still maintain your Dao Heart?’

‘You’re truly an old tortoise!’

On the other side,

Zhang Wanmeng snapped out of her contemplation, hearing Jiang Lin’s thoughts in her mind.

“If only Zhang Wanmeng could speak now and strike a blow against Xiao Dong!”

“But, that’s probably unrealistic; how could she possibly help me…?”

“Sigh, as expected of the protagonist, his Heart-Nature is truly stubborn. It seems I’ll have to kill someone to provoke him. I must destroy the kunlun mirror…”

Zhang Wanmeng was startled. Kill someone?

No, no one can die!

Isn’t it just to provoke Xiao Dong?

And it’s a good chance to gain some favorability!

For the future of Revered Master and the Qin Sect, I’ll have to trouble you!

“Enough, Jiang Lin, I’m fine now. There’s no need to waste time on such a petty person. Isn’t he just looking for compensation? My Zhang Family can afford it!”

The disdain in her words made Jiang Lin pause.

Huh!?

‘Is there something wrong with this foolish woman’s brain… a loose screw?’

Xiao Dong had never mentioned compensation!

‘Shouldn’t you be disgusted by my bullying?’

‘How could you question such an unyielding and tough guy?’

However, ‘you’re on the right track!’

“Pfft… I… don’t… want… your compensation!”

Xiao Dong, lying on the ground, instantly spat blood, his Heart-Nature collapsing.

‘Holy crap, all my words are not as effective as one sentence from the female lead?’

‘As expected, it’s the protagonist’s way of thinking!’

A mirror-like illusion suddenly appeared, so subtle that it was impossible to notice without close inspection.

“Xiao Dong, stabilize your Heart-Nature! The Kunlun Mirror is about to reveal itself!”

“Jiang Lin’s target is your Kunlun Mirror…”

Duan Tianya shouted from within Xiao Dong’s Soul.

“Now’s the time!”

Jiang Lin had been waiting for this moment.

Without hesitation, he gathered all the power of his Nascent Soul Stage and punched the illusion.

Boom!

A massive spatial tremor occurred.

“What happened? Did Jiang Lin make a killing move?”

“Jiang Lin seems to have shattered some kind of spatial Magic Treasure!”

“What kind of spatial Magic Treasure is it? It actually caused such a fluctuation!”

Inside the main hall, everyone looked curiously at the center of the scene.

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for destroying one of the protagonist’s three Golden Fingers, the ‘kunlun mirror’! Reward: 10,000 Villain Points!”

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for escaping the danger of the Blood Loss Gu! Reward: Yuan Yang Holy Body!”

“Yuan Yang Holy Body: Replenishes all the energy consumed by the previous body, resolves the ailments of Medicinal Pill cultivation, and achieves a perfect Yuan Yang physique (virgin body), while also enhancing all male abilities, making you unbeatable in a hundred battles… As a villain, do you feel excited?”

Jiang Lin withdrew his blood-soaked fist and heavily exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi.

The biggest cheat, removed!

The most fatal crisis, removed!

A surge of blood Qi continuously nourished Jiang Lin’s body, making his True Qi even purer…

“Jiang Lin… you… are very good!”

“Within a year… I will certainly pay… a visit…”

Xiao Dong’s eyes were bloodshot, staring fixedly at Jiang Lin, as if he wanted to kill him with his gaze.

Pfft…

A gush of fresh blood spewed out, and Xiao Dong finally couldn’t hold on, falling into a coma.

“As expected of the protagonist, his Heart-Nature is truly strong!”

“Is this a new version of the one-year agreement?”

Looking at the dying Xiao Dong on the ground, Jiang Lin really wanted to go up and finish him off directly.

But Jiang Lin knew that with Medicine Immortal suppressing the situation, he couldn’t kill Xiao Dong!

However, this time would definitely make him suffer!

Jiang Lin bent down and directly pulled off Xiao Dong’s necklace.

Another major Golden Finger, the nine heavens teleportation shuttle!

Unfortunately, the Chaos Pearl was inside Xiao Dong’s Dantian, so there was no way to take it out.

Otherwise, he could have taken all three of his Golden Fingers in one go!

On the main seat, Xiao Yuan’s heart was bleeding.

Although he didn’t know what had happened, seeing the Xiao Family’s future hope beaten like this truly pained him.

This dissolute scoundrel was truly ruthless!

If only he had known, he wouldn’t have brought Xiao Dong out today.

He had still been thinking of seeing Xiao Dong’s demeanor, hoping it could make the Zhang Family’s Dao Child change her mind.

He hadn’t expected to mess things up and instead cause Xiao Dong to suffer such a great loss.

When he woke up, he must advise him well, to never provoke this bully, Jiang Lin.

Before he fully developed, he had to stay far away…

“Ding! Favorability +5!”

Hearing the increase in favorability, Zhang Wanmeng wasn’t very happy.

Because everything before her was caused by herself.

The “God of War” Xiao Zhan from back then had shown great kindness to the Zhang Family.

Although the Zhang Family had been protecting the Xiao Family all these years,

this time, they had truly harmed Xiao Zhan’s direct descendant.

Just then, Jiang Lin’s thoughts once again reached Zhang Wanmeng’s ears.

“It’s done! A good start!”

“Now, Zhang Wanmeng’s role isn’t that big anymore. Although I don’t know why she cooperated so much this time, I must keep my distance from the future crazy person!”

What?

“Future crazy person”… What is that?

Keep her distance?

Jiang Lin wants to keep his distance from her!

Indeed!

These two years of flattery were all a disguise!

That’s right!

He was using her to deceive the world.

He wasn’t a dissolute at all!

He was just using his superb acting skills to deceive her.

This led to the Qin Sect’s intelligence System, one of the best in Nine Heavens, completely ignoring him, thereby affecting the focus of the entire Nine Heavens intelligence organization’s investigation, which was entirely placed on his Genius younger brother.

What a brilliant move, a ‘light under the lamp’ strategy!

However, excuse me, Young Master Jiang!

Fortunately, I have the Heavenly Dao System and have seen through you!

You want to get rid of me now? I’m afraid you won’t have the chance!

For Revered Master’s nirvana pill, and to compensate for the mental distress you’ve caused me over the past few years,

I can’t possibly let you go!

“Young Master Jiang, this matter is over. You said earlier that the Epiphyllum in Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion has bloomed; let’s go together…”

Zhang Wanmeng decided to take the initiative, but Jiang Lin didn’t give her a chance, directly saying, “Wanmeng, I suddenly remembered I have something to do today, so I’ll leave first!”

With that, Jiang Lin threw down two Top-Grade Spirit Stones and then, leading his subordinates, disappeared from the Xiao Family’s guest hall.

Xiao Zhan’s old subordinates, the Bloodthirsty Guards, those madmen, were rushing this way…

Looking at Jiang Lin’s retreating figure, Zhang Wanmeng’s expression was extremely grim.

‘Do you really think your arrogant disguise is completely stable?’

‘You don’t need to numb me anymore?’

‘Jiang Lin, don’t think you can escape!’

‘You’ve used me for so long; it’s time to pay some price!’

‘How can someone the Qin Sect Saintess wants to capture possibly run away?’

Coming back to her senses, Zhang Wanmeng looked at Xiao Dong, who was like a dead fish on the ground, a hint of complexity flashing in her eyes.

This young man was like a stone in a latrine, both smelly and hard.

He didn’t even understand the most basic sense of timing and judgment!

He insisted on clinging to a marriage contract, leading to his current miserable state!

“Patriarch Xiao, this incident was caused by me. Tomorrow, I will have my Family send another batch of resources and superior Medicinal Pills for healing. Also, your Xiao Family’s Secret Realm is unstable; I will have them send another Formation Plate. From now on, my Zhang Family and your Xiao Family are even!”

Xiao Yuan hurriedly stood up, excitedly saying, “Esteemed Niece, what do you mean by this? Even if we can’t be in-laws, how can the friendship between our Families be severed just like that?”

Zhang Wanmeng coldly glanced at the shattered fragments on the ground, snorted softly, and turned to leave.

“It’s over, it’s over!”

Xiao Yuan slumped onto his chair, his face filled with dejection.

This whole affair today was a case of trying to steal a chicken but losing the rice!

He had offended the Zhang Family, angered Jiang Lin, and Xiao Dong was severely injured.

And, some Magic Treasure was broken…

It was a huge loss!
