Chapter 913 Lin Xiao
Soon, the bodies of the two men were burned.

It was as if it had never existed.

Song Wanning was also preparing to leave.

Constantly traveling is quite tedious, so she would choose to rest and recuperate in each city she visited.

However, the current situation made her feel that things were not going well, so she decided to leave first.

However, before Song Wanning could leave the city, suddenly the array around the city rose up, and terrifying waves swirled around her.

Countless cultivators looked up, their eyes filled with terror.

"Is this a city-protecting formation?"

"Why is the city's protective formation activated?"

"It wasn't activated during any of the previous major battles!!!"

Everyone was shocked and looked up in fear.

Suddenly, a hand pierced through the clouds and attacked downwards.

However, the moment they touched the formation, they were thrown back.

Then a deep, resonant voice suddenly rang out.

"What, so afraid of me? You've even activated the city's protective formation?"

The voice carried a hint of casual mockery, and a touch of sharpness.

Song Wanning looked up and immediately met a huge eye.

Those eyes were unfathomable, with a wisp of gray shimmering in their deep blue pupils.

It looks very dark.

Not only Song Wanning, but everyone else also met that eye, their hearts skipped a beat, and a chill ran down their spines.

Just then, a figure appeared; it was the city lord.

A Grand Luo Golden Immortal cultivator.

"Lin Xiao, stop your insolence! Surrender immediately, or the sect will not let you off easily!"

The city lord stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the eye in the sky, his killing intent barely contained.

The surrounding cultivators all felt an unprecedented suppressive force.

Song Wanning's gaze sharpened, thinking that she had stumbled upon a contest between two Grand Luo Immortals, which was a good opportunity to observe and learn.

She tried to minimize her presence and focused intently on the sky.

The eye suddenly shrank, shrank, and shrank again.

A moment later, a figure descended from the sky; it was the person in the portrait.

Song Wanning raised an eyebrow.

Were those guards crazy?

Searching for a Primordial Golden Immortal at the inn?
Do they think it will work?

Even if we do find it, what can we do about it?

Song Wanning chuckled softly, feeling utterly bewildered.

However, the two started fighting as soon as they disagreed.

To avoid being caught in the crossfire, both fought outside the city's protective formation.

The immense contrast in immortal power made the cultivators' blood boil with excitement.

It's a rare opportunity to witness a battle between two Grand Luo Immortals.

Everyone was so engrossed in watching the two figures that they couldn't bear to miss them, their eyes glued to the two figures.

...

"boom-"

The two clasped hands together, then retreated in unison.

The city lord snorted, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his lips.

Lin Xiao also suffered internal injuries, and his eyes became extremely dull.

He gazed at the city lord with a wry smile, a mocking smirk playing on his lips.

"That's fine for today, but you won't be so lucky tomorrow!"

He burst into laughter as he spoke, looking extremely arrogant.

Enraged, the city lord attacked Lin Xiao again.

But Lin Xiao suddenly turned around and disappeared from everyone's sight in the next instant.

The city lord did not give chase. He frowned solemnly, glanced at the cultivators in the city, and then returned to the city lord's mansion.

The city's protective array remained open, seemingly protecting everyone's safety from the unseen forces. No one dared to voice any further complaints, after all, it was saving their lives.

Everyone quickly dispersed, and they were all discussing the matter in small groups.

Song Wanning stood still for a long time before turning around and walking towards the outside of the city.

Fortunately, she paid the city entrance fee and was able to leave smoothly.

So she left the city without the slightest hesitation.

She quickly put the matter out of her mind.

Four days later, as Song Wanning was passing by a swift-flowing river, she heard a familiar sound.

"Hey, come here!"

The voice carried an overwhelming pressure, relentlessly crushing towards Song Wanning.

The other party must have used some method to conceal their presence, because Song Wanning didn't notice.

She instantly became alert and abruptly looked in that direction.

Then I heard a "Huh?"

The voice held a hint of doubt, perhaps astonishment that Song Wanning could withstand the pressure without being affected at all.

Upon making eye contact, Song Wanning recognized the person as Lin Xiao, the same aggressive man from before.

Lin Xiao didn't recognize Song Wanning. Seeing her standing there dumbfounded, he chuckled softly.

"What are you standing there for? Come and help me."

His tone was very matter-of-fact, even as if he knew it very well.

A sense of dissatisfaction rose in Song Wanning's heart. She had no intention of getting involved in these people's affairs, lest she be retaliated against.

But when she wanted to leave, Lin Xiao disagreed.

"Hey, little girl, didn't you see I'm injured? Don't you have any sympathy at all?"

There was a hint of helplessness in the other person's tone.

"Come here, I won't hurt you."

He beckoned to Song Wanning and gave what he considered a handsome smile.

Song Wanning's lips twitched. This man actually used his good looks on her.

Unfortunately, she had seen too many beauties, and this person was not particularly stunning.

She kept walking, knowing that it was really time to leave.

But then Lin Xiao muttered, "It seems those novels were right; the cultivation world is full of heartless bastards, not a single one is kind..."

This sentence felt strangely familiar to Song Wanning.

This tone is somewhat similar to that of an intruder.

Then, considering what novel it was, Song Wanning's heart sank.

Was she so lucky that she encountered another intruder?
Her eyes flickered slightly, she changed her pace, and strode towards Lin Xiao.

"Hey, why are you back again?"

"Is it because they don't want me to die?"

Lin Xiao had a smile on his lips, and even though his injuries were extremely serious, he still looked indifferent.

Song Wanning glanced at him and asked coldly, "Which city lord injured you like this?"

At the time, the city lord and he were evenly matched, but no one expected Lin Xiao to be so badly injured.

But the next moment, Lin Xiao sneered.

"Pshaw, him? He doesn't even deserve it!"

Lin Xiao's eyes were full of mockery, but he also guessed that Song Wanning had witnessed everything that happened back in the city.

No wonder I didn't want to save him.

It seems they're afraid of getting into trouble.

He suddenly tilted his head: "Why did you change your mind again?"

This question means asking her why she saved people again.

Song Wanning glanced at him again.

"Isn't it all to tell you that there are good people in the cultivation world too!"

Especially those good people who could kill you—there are plenty of them!
She gave Lin Xiao a meaningful look.

Lin Xiao suddenly laughed out loud, his eyes filled with amusement as he looked at Song Wanning.

"You're so funny!"
