The wings of the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle spanned more than ten feet, and its body was entirely covered with glistening azure scales. It swooped down with mighty force and incredible speed and whirled dusk, rocks, and dirt into the air.
Many nearby people drew back, and their expressions changed at the oppressive power.
The cold and stern woman did not need to make a move to curb the imposing manner of a good number of cultivators. Her mount alone was enough to induce fear in them.
Lin Xun and the others were in the same area, but they did not retreat.
“Who is she?”
“No way, do you not know Fairy Ling Hua from Mysterious Metropolis Sect?”
“Fairy Ling Hua? Could it be the supreme genius maiden who emerged in the world recently?”
“That’s her!”
Nearby people discussed spiritedly, darting glances of admiration at the woman sitting astride the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle with elegance.
Every ancient-era eccentric genius possessed a background and foundation that instilled fear in cultivators.
For example, Fairy Ling Hua might be standing alone, but no one dared to underestimate her!
“You really came to die.”
Ling Hua shot a look at Lin Xun and the others. “I don’t want to trouble you but it’s best if you disappear from my sight.” She spoke casually, yet her voice was filled with authority.
“Do you want to occupy this area by yourself?” Toady raised his eyebrows, his anger mounting. This woman is arrogant.
“It’s not about occupying the area, but I just don’t want to associate with you, do you understand?” she uttered coldly.
In fact, except for Lin Xun and the other two, no one within a radius of tens of feet dared to come close to Fairy Ling Hua, deterred by her oppressive power.
But now, she directly threatened Lin Xun and the others to leave. Many people trembled inwardly at her arrogant and bossy attitude.
It had to be said that the woman was terrifyingly strong. The unbearably oppressive aura she emitted had already forced many cultivators to draw back.
Her Azure Scaled Sky Eagle was just as domineering and proud, looking at the other heroes with disdain. The bolts of lightning flowing around its wings were tearing space apart.
All the cultivators in the area had long retreated far away, leaving Lin Xun and the other two turning a deaf ear to her words.
A look of iciness flashed in Ling Hua’s eyes. The Azure Scaled Sky Eagle rushed upwards, and its entire body emitted blinding lightning bolts. Its sharp talons flickered cold in the air as it stretched out to latch onto Lin Xun.
It was like a hawk grabbing a rabbit and trying to tear it apart!
Toady and A’lu were already infuriated and if Lin Xun hadn’t stopped them, they would have taken action long ago. But the other party was so unrelenting that they couldn’t stand it any more.
However, Lin Xun, who was previously unbothered by everything, was the first to move. He made a grabbing motion in the air.
His movements were too fast. He instantly caught hold of the sharp talons of the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle.
The eagle could not break out of his firm grip no matter how hard it struggled.
Huh?
Ling Hua’s eyes narrowed.
Lin Xun applied strength to his arm to lift the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle and hurled it towards the ground.
Ling Hua lurched and was almost sent flying across the air with the eagle. But she instinctively flung herself away and somersaulted into midair.
Bang!
The ground quaked, and a large crater was blasted into the earth. The Azure Scaled Sky Eagle was hit so hard that its wings were destroyed and its neck almost snapped.
It let out a shrill and agonizing cry.
Then, it lay insensible on the ground!
Blood poured from it while Lin Xun stood expressionlessly and tossed the unconscious divine bird away like trash.
A cloud of dust and smoke exploded into the air.
Uproar broke out in the nearby area; everyone was shaken to the core. No one imagined the young man who had been quiet all along to be so ruthless.
Although Ling Hua managed to escape the blow, her face turned frighteningly cold and a wave of killing intent burst forth from her.
“It’s him, Demon God Lin!” someone cried out in astonishment.
A chill struck Ling Hua’s heart. She paused for a moment and when she looked at Lin Xun again, her gaze had completely changed.
Demon God Lin!
That name seemed to possess magical powers as everyone’s attention was instantly drawn and the atmosphere went deathly still.
Whoever hadn’t heard of the name Demon God Lin in this world by this point would definitely be laughed at.
All cultivators’ expressions changed when they learned that the young man was the famous Demon God Lin. His feats and achievements had shaken the Ancient Wasteland Domain several times before.
“No wonder he’s so fearless. It turns out that he’s Demon God Lin,” muttered someone.
Not long ago, Demon God Lin had defeated ancient-era eccentric genius Jin Xiaoming and caused a sensation in the world!
“Among the younger generation, Demon God Lin is the only one unafraid of facing ancient-era eccentric geniuses,” someone sighed.
Once they confirmed Lin Xun’s identity, everything that had happened made a lot more sense.
Fairy Ling Hua might be terrifying, but her opponent is Demon God Lin!
I can’t believe her beast dared to anger Demon God Lin. Does it want to die?
In the distance, an uneasy look crossed the face of the gray-haired man. He thought of how he mocked Lin Xun and the others earlier.
On the blood-colored ship, the descendants of the Thousand Beast Spirit Mountain glanced at each other in dismay. They did not think that Demon God Lin would be one of the cultivators they told to move out of the way earlier!
All of a sudden, some people were frowning, while others were curling their lips disapprovingly.
Only Liang Xueyin’s expression was as indifferent as always.
“Are you Lin Xun? I misjudged and didn’t see how amazing you are,” Ling Hua said aloud, but her expression was still cold and stern. “But no matter who you are, don’t you think you went too far by wounding my mount?”
Toady raged, “Bitch, you insulted us and made sarcastic remarks about us along the way. Then, after we arrived here, you tried to force us to leave. We didn’t bother to argue with you about all that, but then you tried to push your luck. Are you not ashamed?”
A’lu was even more direct. “Brother, I want to try eagle meat.” He stared at the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle on the ground.
Lin Xun previously chose to ignore her because he didn’t want to draw too much attention just before they entered the Supreme Realm. But that did not mean he was afraid of trouble. Since the other party refused to back down, if he continued to ignore her it would be seen as a sign of weakness and others would think he was easy to bully!
“Do you want to eat it? That’s easy!” With a swipe of his finger, Lin Xun sliced the neck of the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle and sprayed blood everywhere like a spring.
Everyone trembled inwardly. He really is a demon god. He killed his opponent’s mount in a slight disagreement and even planned to eat it!
“You must die!” Ling Hua screamed in rage. Her mount was beheaded before her eyes. This was the greatest humiliation and insult.
Boom!
However, just as she was about to retaliate, an old man with silver hair and a beard appeared out of thin air, standing right in front of her. “Miss, it’s best not to get into a fight with someone just before entering the Supreme Realm.”
The old man exuded the terrifying aura unique to the king stage. His appearance made many people’s faces turn pale.
However, many people were unafraid.
This was because each of them was secretly accompanied and protected by more powerful figures than them!
“Uncle Yun, how can I take it when he killed my mount?” Ling Hua’s face was as cold as frost, but her eyes were blazing with murderous rage.
“It’s just a beast. It’s nothing compared to the fortunes in the Supreme Realm,” the old man spoke indifferently.
The scene was very strange. Even though a king-level expert had arrived, he was only dissuading Ling Hua from taking action and showing no intention of helping her.
But those who were in the know would know that, in the present world, whoever wanted to bully Lin Xun would first have to consider the consequences of doing so!
After all, the incident of a mysterious woman storming six ancient sects and clans by herself and forcing them to bow their heads was still being circulated in the world to this day!
“Fine, I will remember this!”
Ling Hua inhaled deeply and glared at Lin Xun coldly. “Cherish the time you have. When we enter the Supreme Realm, I will settle this matter with you!”
Her voice was so cold and filled with hatred that even the surrounding air froze and many people felt chills.
She turned around and left the area.
“Young man, it’s not easy to survive in the Supreme Realm. You better watch out.”
The old man swept a glance over Lin Xun, and a chilling fierceness flashed like lightning in his eyes. He hated the fact that he couldn’t kill Lin Xun right away.
Just as everyone speculated, it was not that he couldn’t, but that he didn’t dare to!
Of course, he was not afraid of Lin Xun, but of the mysterious woman behind him.
“Old man, when we return as kings from the Supreme Realm, let’s see if you still speak to us like that!” Toady sneered.
The old man scoffed and also left.
The little drama came to an end.
But no one dared to treat Lin Xun and the other two like they did before, so much so that very few people approached the area again!
Originally, after learning about Lin Xun’s identity, many were interested in conversing and making friends with him.
After all, once they entered the Supreme Realm, even if they couldn’t work together, they might be able to avoid conflict with each other.
But this thought was extinguished when a strong enmity was formed between Lin Xun and Ling Hua.
Although Demon God Lin was strong, he had many enemies, so they would also have to consider the risks of becoming his friend.
As a result, the area became deserted.
However, Lin Xun was glad to have some peace and quiet. He ordered Toady and A’lu to butcher the Azure Scaled Sky Eagle, planning to barbecue it for dinner since they had nothing else to do.
Some cultivators in the distance were at a loss for words as they watched him. Demon God Lin is too gutsy. Does he not know that this would further anger Fairy Ling Hua?
Many people turned to look at Ling Hua, and as expected, her pretty face turned sullen and she emitted endless murderous intent.
But Lin Xun and the other two seemed completely unaware.
Toady was skewering the flesh, A’lu was starting the fire and Lin Xun was preparing the condiments. The three divided the labor and soon started barbecuing.
Ling Hua retracted her gaze, worried that she would not be able to control herself from storming over there and killing him!
At that moment, an expert from the Golden Crow Clan quietly approached her. “Miss Ling Hua, my young master invites you over.”
Ling Hua raised her eyes and looked at the area closest to the City of Enlightenment.
A golden-clad man was leaning back on a throne that looked like it was constructed from real gold.
