Xian Ni: The God of Killing Returns, Marries Li Muwan at the Beginning

Lin Che rushed forward, trying to grab that familiar yet unfamiliar figure, but his fingertips passed straight through the old man's shoulder without leaving a trace of touch.

"master!"

Lin Che called out again, his voice trembling with disbelief.

The Yellow Dragon Immortal before them still had his head bowed, and the sound of his chains binding him was particularly clear in this void.

No matter how Lin Che shouted or reached out to touch it, it was as if he was confronting a phantom.

Lin Che suddenly realized that he was not physically present at this moment. His spiritual energy was sluggish, but his spiritual consciousness was unusually clear.

This was clearly a result of his consciousness being drawn into the Cultivation Alliance, or rather, a wisp of soul sealed within that portrait from back then, allowing him to see this location.

"Master, look at me! I'm Lin Che!"

Lin Che's eyes turned bloodshot with anxiety. He reached out to pull at the black iron chains binding Huanglong Zhenren. The moment his fingertips passed through the chains, a sharp, painful ripple of consciousness emanated from them.

Master Huanglong seemed completely unaware, simply raising his head slowly. His deeply lined face was expressionless, his lips moving slightly.

Lin Che knelt on the ground, clenching his fists: "I'm sorry, Master. I'm incompetent and have caused you suffering."

"Little guy... is that you?"

Master Huanglong seemed to sense Lin Che's aura and slowly said, "Little fellow, you have done very well. At such a young age, you have already reached the Shattered Nirvana Realm. I am proud of you."

"Besides, my cultivation has reached the Five Signs of Decay of Heaven and Man, and I am the fifth generation Vermilion Bird Holy Emperor of the Vermilion Bird Holy Sect. They wouldn't dare to do anything to me."

Lin Che clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot, and said, "At this moment, I swear that I will definitely rescue my teacher in the future. Anyone who harms my teacher will be annihilated and never be reincarnated!"

"Where did this junior come from, daring to provoke my Cultivation Alliance? Get out of here!"

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out, and a burst of energy possessing the power of a Celestial Realm expert swept past, instantly shattering Lin Che's entire divine sense.

"Che'er!"

Before he finished speaking, the surrounding darkness suddenly surged, and Huanglong Zhenren's figure began to become transparent, while the sound of the chains gradually faded away.

Lin Che suddenly opened his eyes, reaching out to try and grasp the last glimmer of light, but in the end he only grasped a cold void.

The next second, his consciousness was suddenly pulled by a tremendous force, the darkness before his eyes receded, and he fell back into the brightly lit room.

The fingertip was still on the portrait, in which the Yellow Dragon Immortal looked exactly the same as before, as if the thrilling scene just now was nothing more than a fleeting dream of the mind.

Lin Che gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at the people in front of him: "Cultivation Alliance, I swear at this moment that I will make you ants be annihilated!"

…………

Qinglongzi glanced at the completely dissipated divine consciousness, snorted disdainfully, and said, "Lu Yun, you really have taken on a good disciple."

"It's truly impressive that you were able to use your divine sense to get here. But unfortunately, your strength is still too weak. In the face of absolute power, you're nothing more than an ant trying to shake a tree."

With one hand behind his back, Qinglongzi continued, "Lu Yun, the Luo Tian Star Region is preparing to attack our Cultivation Alliance Star Region. Originally, Senior Long Panzi wanted you to take charge of the overall situation, but now it seems that there is no need for that."

Master Huanglong said calmly, "Qinglongzi, you will pay the price for your arrogance."

"cost?"

Qinglongzi appeared in front of him instantly, grabbing his neck with his right hand, a barely perceptible glint of coldness flashing in his eyes. "You? If it weren't for the fact that Lin Che's top-tier Void Treasure is related to you, you wouldn't be in this state now."

"Lu Yun, Lu Yun, I have better advise you not to go against us. Even if some senior is protecting you, you should understand the allure of the Nirvana Treasure."

"Even a powerful figure like Senior Long Panzi cares quite a bit about this. Do you really think that brat Lin Che can rescue you?"

Qinglongzi tightened his fingertips, the iron chain drawing red marks from Huanglong Zhenren's neck, but he seemed unconcerned, staring intently into the other's eyes, his voice filled with suppressed greed.

"Stop giving me this nonsense! I'm asking you, were the top-tier Void Treasures and those endless secret techniques and supernatural abilities that Lin Che possessed given to him by you back then?"

Master Huanglong let out a muffled sound, but a mocking smile curled at the corner of his mouth: "What? Are you jealous?"

"nonsense!"

Qinglongzi's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he roared angrily, "How could a mere brat who couldn't even glimpse Nirvana back then possibly obtain such a treasure?"

"Besides you, you old codger from the Vermilion Bird Holy Sect, who else could pull off such a feat!"

Qinglongzi increased the pressure on his hands, his eyes turning bloodshot as he said, "I'll ask you one more time, did you give those things to me? Where are they hidden? Are there any more?"

Master Huanglong slowly closed his eyes, remaining silent no matter how the other party pressed him for answers.

The clanging of chains echoed in the dimly lit cell. Seeing that he was unmoved by either soft or hard tactics, Qinglongzi laughed in anger.

"Fine, very well! You think I can't find out just because you don't tell me? Once I catch that brat Lin Che, skin him alive, and search his soul, I'll still find out the answer!"

After saying that, Qinglongzi suddenly released his grip, and Huanglong Zhenren coughed violently, but his face remained as calm as ever.

Qinglongzi glared at him for a long time, finally suppressing the urge to attack immediately, and coldly snorted: "You'd better pray I don't find any concrete evidence, otherwise..."

Qinglongzi didn't say anything more, turned around and left with a flick of his sleeve. Only Huanglong Zhenren's heavy breathing and the occasional soft clatter of the iron chains remained in the cell.

Master Huanglong sighed and said, "Che'er..."

...............

In the quiet room, Li Muwan, dressed in thin clothes, stepped in and gently snuggled into Lin Che's arms, inhaling the masculine scent emanating from him.

"Husband, what's wrong? You look so worried. Has something happened?"

Li Muwan pursed her thin lips and asked with a puzzled expression.

Lin Che didn't hide anything and told Li Muwan everything he had just seen.

Upon learning that her husband had seen her master, Huanglong Zhenren, Li Muwan's pretty face showed a look of shock.

“I never imagined that my master would have fallen to such a state. Husband, we must rescue Master Huanglong.”

Lin Che gently kissed Li Muwan's cherry lips and whispered, "Don't worry, I will definitely save Master."

"Anyone who harms Master deserves to die. If anything happens to Master, I don't mind making the entire Cultivation Alliance perish with him!"
