Chapter 38: Lin Xing's Appearance

As time ticked by, the second - round matches on several other arenas had already started, yet on the "Gen" arena, the contestants still hadn't all arrived.

"Could something have happened?" Finally, a disciple couldn't help but ask.

"I heard that those who get involved with this woman don't end up well. It seems ——"

"Junior Brother Lin must be a gentleman who doesn't fight with a woman and deliberately gave her a break."

...

The discussions grew louder and louder. The elder on the arena could no longer bear the wait. The Spirit Elder had just gone missing, and now a disciple was nowhere to be seen. Could there be a connection between these two events? —— Impossible, impossible. I'm just overthinking, the elder composed himself, thinking that he should wait a bit longer. Maybe the disciple was really held up by something.

He turned to look at the Little Bamboo Peak disciple on the arena, intending to comfort her and tell her not to worry. To his surprise, the woman was even calmer than him. With a long sword in her hand, her eyes closed, her breath rising and falling rhythmically with each breath, and the intervals were exactly the same. Evidently, she had entered an optimal state.

"This, this is another genius!" the elder exclaimed in surprise. Recalling the woman's match yesterday, it seemed that she had also won easily.

This match is definitely going to be worth watching!

It's worth waiting for!!

Suddenly, as if remembering something, the elder rushed off in a hurry. The disciples thought something major had happened, but a minute later, they saw him bringing a stool and sitting down steadily!

"This is too much! We don't have stools!" The disciples grumbled again.

However, the number of people watching the match didn't decrease. Instead, with the end of Lu Xueqi's match, even more people came. Lin Xing's arena became the liveliest one.

"Xueqi, you should watch this match carefully. Your Senior Sister Su's match against Lin... Lin Xing will be of great help to you." When Master Shuiyue said the name "Lin Xing", she seemed a bit unnatural. She glanced at her disciple and then regained her composure.

"Yes, Master," Lu Xueqi replied respectfully.

"If there are no accidents, the champion should emerge from you and your senior sister," Master Shuiyue added, seeing that Lu Xueqi agreed but didn't seem particularly attentive.

"Senior sister?" Lu Xueqi was evidently surprised.

"Indeed, you may not be very familiar with this senior sister. Back then, her talent was as good as yours. If not for that accident, she might have reached my cultivation level by now!"

"Reached the same cultivation level as Master? Senior Sister Su?" A look of surprise appeared on Lu Xueqi's cold face for the first time.

Master Shuiyue didn't answer, her eyes fixed on Su Lingfeng's solitary figure in the arena.

My disciple, during your twenty - year seclusion, was it really for cultivation, or was it just an escape?

"This Lin Xing, I watched his match from afar. I can't be sure about his Daoist magic skills yet. But his swordsmanship ——" A chubby man wrinkled his bitter - gourd - like face, watching from a distance.

"Is his swordsmanship even better than yours?" A beautiful woman teased. This chubby man was probably just sour because he couldn't have what he wanted again.

To her surprise, this vain Fatty Tian actually nodded. His two sesame - sized eyes stared at Lin Xing as if he wanted to devour him.

At this moment, Tian Ling'er interjected, "Father, this man is not only proficient in swordsmanship but also very skilled in water - based magic!"

"How do you know?" The couple asked in unison.

"I, I, I saw it by accident!" Tian Ling'er didn't want her parents to know that she had secretly gone on a date with Senior Brother Qi again.

Su Ru was quite relieved about her daughter and didn't ask further. But Tian Buyi had other thoughts.

"Could Ling'er have a crush on this Lin Xing? But this Lin Xing is indeed more pleasing to the eye than that Qi Hao! Ling'er is still young and might be confused in matters of the heart. It seems I, as her father, should give her a hand!"

Fatty Tian's hatred for Qi Hao was deeply ingrained. A few years ago, Qi Hao came to Big Bamboo Peak to provoke, giving that despicable Cangsong a great sense of superiority. He also gave that Cooling Pearl, making his wife envious for a while. And as for secretly luring his daughter away, it was unforgivable!

How could I give my daughter to Cangsong as a daughter - in - law!

Evidently, Fatty Tian had forgotten that Lin Xing was also from Dragon - Head Peak.

The matches on all the arenas were approaching their end, and everyone's attention shifted to the "Gen" arena. In this match, both disciples were considered to have strong strength, and they were both rather mysterious. No one knew their true capabilities. Thus, the match became even more intriguing.

But where was Lin Xing? Why hadn't he come yet!?

The matches on the other arenas were almost over!

"Oh, right. Wen Min from Little Bamboo Peak doesn't seem to be here either," a disciple suddenly shouted.

However, since that match had been postponed, it didn't draw much attention. With this mention —— So that's how it is! The disciples started to spread the word among themselves.

A wave of gossip quickly spread...

"Eldest Senior Brother, you, you must hold on! Don't take those people's words seriously."

A big, dull - eyed fellow was surrounded by several junior brothers, looking dazed and confused, as if in a daze.

"Wen, Wen Min Junior Sister she ——"

"Senior Brother, it's just a coincidence. Junior Brother Lin is so young. How could he have feelings for Senior Sister Wen?" He Dazhi was quick - witted and immediately tried to persuade his senior brother. In the world of Zhu Xian, an sister-brother love was still hard to accept.

Song Daren's dim eyes suddenly regained focus: "Yes! I'm so stupid. How could Junior Brother Lin ——"

Half - way through his words, Song Daren's eyes suddenly widened, and he fell straight down.

"Senior Brother!" "What happened?" "Wake up, Senior Brother!"

The others couldn't figure it out. He had been fine just now. Why did he suddenly collapse?

Following the direction of Song Daren's gaze, they immediately understood everything.

Two white figures walked side by side. The man was handsome and energetic, with a strange charm on his heroic face. The woman was graceful, her white dress fluttering gently in the wind, so beautiful that words couldn't describe her. Truly, they were a perfect match.

And these two were Lin Xing and Wen Min!

The two walked while laughing continuously, their expressions showing an intimate bond. After walking a short distance into the square, they finally said goodbye reluctantly. Before leaving, they greeted each other repeatedly. Although they couldn't hear what they were saying, anyone could guess from their warm and sweet smiles.

"Eldest Senior Brother! You've had such a hard time ——————"
