It must be said that this place is blessed with beautiful mountains and clear waters, a perfect place to live and cultivate one's mind and spirit. Lin Yaoxie liked it more and more as he looked around. He never expected that Huang Zhongxin would know how to enjoy life so much, finding himself such a wonderful living environment.

Chapter 282 Energy Orb

"Hahahaha... How about it? This is where I live, my lair. So, I've brought you all the way here, so I can't possibly not give you a reward. Come on, come on, go into the center of my lair, there's my big reward for you there."

Having arrived here, Huang Zhongxin, who was leading the way, slowed down his pace and was no longer in a hurry as before.

As he walked along, the subordinates around him looked at Lin Yaoxie with surprise or intense curiosity.

Because this place, as Huang Zhongxin's lair, is extremely secretive and closed off; ordinary people cannot enter such a place.

However, today, his own boss, Huang Zhongxin, actually brought a stranger into this place.

Moreover, this unfamiliar face turned out to be that of a young man who looked quite young.

This young man, to be so respected by his boss, what extraordinary abilities does he possess? Is it really true that the old saying, "Man proposes, God disposes," holds true?

Can you judge a book by its cover? Does someone so young already possess incredible strength?

However, Huang Zhongxin's men, though curious, could only keep their curiosity to themselves and dared not speak out.

Huang Zhongxin was very strict in his discipline, and he wouldn't allow them to disturb him or his guests at will.

Soon, Huang Zhongxin led Lin Yaoxie to a cave that resembled a water curtain cave.

The moment you step inside, you feel like you're floating on air, because of the wonderfully fragrant aroma that fills the air. That fragrance instantly lifts your spirits.

Lin Yaoxie felt that there must be some strange flowers and plants growing here, otherwise they wouldn't be emitting such an extraordinary fragrance.

This is truly a wonderful place! Living here must make every day wonderful. It's so enjoyable...

As Huang Zhongxin led the way deeper and deeper into the interior, the central area came into view before Lin Yaoxie.

A dazzling pearl, resembling a large luminous pearl, floated at the center. This floating pearl emitted a faint, earthy-yellow glow.

It turns, and every now and then a rather bright light flashes out.

0 to 00 requests for flowers.....

Moreover, Lin Yaoxie's eyesight was extremely sharp, and he quickly noticed that every few breaths, tiny wisps of silk would be released from that pearl.

Those tiny strands of thread are no ordinary things; they're definitely a source of energy.

This precious pearl releases energy here continuously every day, which people can absorb, and it will definitely allow people's strength to improve very quickly.

Lin Yaoxie looked at the precious pearl with eyes that seemed to be blazing with fire, becoming more and more excited as he looked at it.

"How about it? This pearl is the greatest treasure in my lair. Although I can't give it to you, you can treat this lair as your own. Living here, you can absorb this energy all day long, maximizing your strength." (Death)

Chapter 283 New Circumstances

To be honest, Lin Yaoxie was also very interested in this energy-emitting orb. However, it's never right to take what belongs to someone else. Even though he really wanted to possess the orb, he didn't take that step.

Anyway, I can cultivate next to this precious pearl in the future, and my strength can improve faster, so there's no need to snatch it away.

"Heh, you're really lucky! You managed to get such a wonderful treasure. Why don't I have one like that? I'm so envious..."

Lin Yaoxie looked at the precious pearl, nodded, and then smiled at Huang Zhongxin.

"Oh dear, according to what you're saying, I'm already quite old, and I've been wandering this world for so many years. Haven't I encountered even the slightest good opportunity? Besides, look at you. You're so young, yet you already possess such formidable strength. You're truly a chosen one, which is what makes people envious."

However, when Huang Zhongxin talked about Lin Yaoxie's strength, it was truly enviable. When Huang Zhongxin was the same age as Lin Yaoxie, he was...

They are nowhere near as powerful as Lin Yaoxie.

Therefore, in comparison, even if I could obtain this very precious pearl, it would be completely incomparable to Lin Yaoxie's life experiences.

If he could switch life circumstances with Lin Yaoxie, he would be 100% willing; he couldn't be happier!

"Yes, that's right. In life, who hasn't had a few special opportunities? By the way, what was that royal guard captain who led a small team to try and eliminate you? I felt like they had a lot of power."

Just then, Lin Yaoxie suddenly remembered something from before: why did another group of people suddenly come to kill Huang Zhongxin? Moreover, those people were not weaklings; they were clearly affiliated with some powerful faction.

"Hehehe, it's laughable, really. I, Huang Zhongxin, spent the first half of my life serving the emperor, but later, some treacherous people were jealous of me and framed me, causing the emperor to treat me as an enemy. That's why I was hunted down. Fortunately, I always have a backup plan, so I didn't die so quickly..."

After hearing Lin Yaoxie's words, Huang Zhongxin softly said...

Thinking back to my previous life, those were such pleasant and carefree days. But ever since I was framed by a villain, those good days are gone forever. I can only operate in secret, afraid to go out openly and honestly.

Otherwise, one wrong move and you could be dealt with, or even killed, by the royal guards sent by the emperor...

"So, after serving the emperor for so long, you still couldn't escape the tragic fate of being harmed by treacherous people? That's truly a pity."

After hearing Huang Zhongxin's explanation, Lin Yaoxie couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him.

"Of course! You know, there's a saying that goes, 'Serving a ruler is like serving a tiger!' Do you think this saying is a joke? Being by the emperor's side involves a whole bunch of people..."

Chapter 284 Strange Woman

"They're all incredibly shrewd people. Either you're scheming against them, or they're scheming against you. Life is always like walking on thin ice."

Huang Zhongxin sighed and said.

Sometimes things are just like that, and life may seem perfect. You may be blessed with a life of luxury, but at the same time, you may be subjected to mental stress, or even torment.

But as frustrating as it may be, think about it: how many ordinary people in the world long for this kind of life? Because a life without power or influence is truly a miserable one. Even if it involves enduring mental stress and even torment, as long as they have enough to eat and wear, that's more important than anything else.

For most impoverished people in the world, life revolves around the simple goal of having enough to eat and wear. But even this seemingly simple goal requires immense effort, sometimes even costing them their lives…

"Brother Huang Zhongxin, are you back? I heard from my men that you were back, so I rushed over to see you. I'm getting moldy here."

Just then, a young girl suddenly skipped in from outside. Her voice was so clear and melodious. Even before seeing her face, just hearing her voice was enough to make you feel that she was a 100% charming woman!

As a vigorous young man, Lin Yaoxie couldn't help but turn his eyes away from the precious pearl and look back towards where they had come from after hearing the melodious voice of a young woman.

Just then, Lin Yaoxie saw a pretty young girl in a light green dress walking quickly toward Huang Zhongxin.

To be honest, the moment Lin Yaoxie saw this pretty young girl, he was deeply attracted by her beauty.

"What a beautiful young girl, truly a rare beauty... I haven't seen such a beautiful girl in ages, hehehe..."

Lin Yaoxie looked at the pretty young girl and couldn't help but sigh softly.

There's a saying that goes, "Everyone has a love for beauty." It's quite normal for Lin Yaoxie, a fine young man, to exclaim this after not seeing such a pretty and charming girl for a long time.

"Hahahaha... Yes, I'm back. You'll be shocked if I told you, I almost didn't make it back!"

Huang Zhongxin, of course, also heard the voice of the pretty young girl and quickly turned around to greet her.

Yes, this pretty young girl is called Huang Zhongxin237, who calls him "Big Brother," so they must have a very close relationship.

However, upon careful observation, Lin Yaoxie discovered that this pretty young girl bore absolutely no resemblance to Huang Zhongxin, suggesting they were not related by blood. She was likely a god-sister Huang Zhongxin had recognized, or perhaps a sister he had adopted from a young age.

"No way? Brother Huang Zhongxin? You actually encountered great danger? What exactly happened? Brother Huang Zhongxin, your strength is so great, yet you almost didn't make it back. That's terrifying! By the way, who is this person next to you?"

Chapter 285 is alright.

The pretty young girl's brows revealed that she truly cared about her elder brother, Huang Zhongxin. She had just heard Huang Zhongxin say that he almost couldn't come back, and she couldn't help but feel genuinely worried and afraid for him.

"Hehehe, it's all thanks to this young talent beside me that I was able to return safely. By the way, let me introduce you. This young talent is called Lin Yaoxie. He's an extraordinary young man. I've been following him for a long time. Xiaoyun, quickly call Lin Yaoxie 'Big Brother'!"

Just then, Huang Zhongxin also realized what was happening and quickly began to introduce Lin Yaoxie's situation to his adopted sister.

"Greetings, Brother Lin Yaoxie! My name is Huang Xiaoyun. I never expected it was you who helped my brother Huang Zhongxin! Although you look truly handsome, how could such a young man like you possibly save my brother Huang Zhongxin? I really find it hard to believe..."

As Huang Xiaoyun spoke, she quickly walked up to Lin Yaoxie and began to observe him closely, making Lin Yaoxie feel a little embarrassed.

After all, being observed so closely by a delicate fairy like you, you're bound to feel a little strange inside.

Huang Xiaoyun actually circled around Lin Yaoxie twice while observing him... It was as if she were looking at some rare animal, which made Lin Yaoxie laugh.

"Hehehe, little girl, is this how you observe people? I'm not some rare animal, why are you observing me like this? It's making me a little embarrassed by your observation. Cough cough... You're not observing me for so long because I'm very handsome, are you?"

Lin Yaoxie is Lin Yaoxie after all. Even if he felt a little embarrassed, he could still joke around with Huang Xiaoyun.

However, this joke also carries a hint of the truth. Because Lin Yaoxie is, in fact, a very handsome and dashing man.

"Pah! I've seen countless handsome men, and you're nowhere near my level! Speaking of which, did you manage to scare the enemy who attacked my brother Huang Zhongxin to death with your terrifyingly thick skin?"

Huang Xiaoyun wasn't exactly a naive girl after all; she quickly found herself joking around with Lin Yaoxie in a rather unserious manner. To be honest, this side of Huang Xiaoyun was actually more charming to Lin Yaoxie, though he didn't know why…

"~Hahahaha...Xiaoyun, don't be so frivolous. Your Brother Lin Yaoxie is incredibly powerful. To be honest, his strength is absolutely formidable! Extremely powerful!"

When Huang Zhongxin heard his little sister talking to Lin Yaoxie in such an inappropriate manner, he couldn't help but interject with a laugh.

"Absolutely powerful? Extremely powerful? Brother Huang Zhongxin? Could it be that this young and handsome guy is actually stronger than you?" At this moment, Huang Xiaoyun finally became a little more serious and walked to Huang Zhongxin's side to ask slowly.

Chapter 286 You're Right

"Yes, yes, Brother Lin Yaoxie's strength is only greater than mine, not inferior to mine. If it weren't for Brother Lin Yaoxie's powerful help, I really wouldn't have been able to come back. By the way, didn't you always say you wanted to go out and train? How about you go with Brother Lin Yaoxie?"

Just then, as Huang Zhongxin explained Lin Yaoxie's situation to the little girl, he remembered the little girl's initial desire to gain experience.

Honestly, if someone as powerful as Zhong Fen could lead Huang Xiaoyun out to explore the world and gain experience, that would be a really good thing.

Being able to follow Lin Yaoxie would definitely be of great benefit to Huang Xiaoyun!

"What? Brother Huang Zhongxin? You really hate your little sister Xiaoyun that much? How come you just brought a stranger back and immediately want to give your adorable, invincible, stunningly beautiful little sister Xiaoyun to someone else?"

However, when Huang Xiaoyun heard her elder brother Huang Zhongxin's suggestion, she did not immediately agree.

"Hey, hey, hey, you little girl, do you know how rare it is to meet a young talent like Brother Lin Yaoxie? If you miss this opportunity today, you may never meet such a good person to guide you again!"

However, Huang Zhongxin clearly hoped that Lin Yaoxie would lead his little sister. Having Lin Yaoxie lead her was arguably better than having him lead her himself.

Lin Yaoxie already possesses such formidable strength at such a young age. If he were to casually guide the little girl, wouldn't she be able to progress incredibly quickly? Perhaps even raise her strength to a level close to his own in a very short time?

This kind of opportunity is truly rare; it's the kind you absolutely can't miss. Once you miss it, who knows if you'll ever encounter it again?

"Okay... Brother Lin Yaoxie, did you hear that? It wasn't me, Huang Xiaoyun, who begged you to take me under your wing, it was my brother, Huang Zhongxin, who begged me to let you take me under your wing. Don't get any bad ideas!"

This Huang Xiaoyun always liked to make such unserious jokes, which made Lin Yaoxie both annoyed and amused.

"Alright, alright, whatever you say is right. I'm not going to talk to you anymore. If you're willing to follow me, I certainly won't treat you badly."

Lin Yaoxie would certainly not refuse such a delicate fairy to go on her adventures with.

After all, there's a saying that goes, "Even heroes can't resist the charms of a beautiful woman." Even the most powerful hero in the world would find it hard to resist the urge to get close to a stunning beauty.

Now that it wasn't Huang Zhongxin who brought it up first, instead of Huang Zhongxin himself, that's even better.

To avoid giving people the impression that something is amiss if I were to say it myself, which would be quite unfortunate.

Honestly, Lin Yaoxie also longed for a fairy-like girl like Huang Xiaoyun to accompany him on his journey. The life of a lone wolf was easy, but easy as it was, it just lacked flavor…

Chapter 287 Quite Powerful
