In the president's office of the Shen Family Medicine Company.
Weak light was on, and Shen Wan'er, with a tired expression, was writing a plan.
Not long ago, she had saved the company from bankruptcy with a prescription from Xiao Lin.
Thanks to the miraculous effect of the prescription, she was able to regain some partnerships on her own.
Even because of Xiao Lin's help, she had met some pharmaceutical companies from Western Nation.
With time, her company would certainly be able to go global!
"Huh~ It's so late already."
After finishing the plan, Shen Wan'er stretched and looked at the time—it was already past ten o'clock at night.
Although she had told Xiao Lin that she would probably sleep at the company tonight, ......
It was actually still early, and the progress of the plan was faster than she had imagined.
Going home wouldn't be a problem.
Thinking about it, Shen Wan'er turned off the computer and stood up.
But suddenly.
Scratch~
The office door was slowly pushed open.
A figure walked in.
Shen Wan'er was startled, clearly not expecting anyone to be here at this hour.
She instinctively looked up at the person, but in that instant, her pupils shrank.
Her expression gradually turned panicked.
A black-robed figure walked in.
By the light, Shen Wan'er could clearly see that the person was holding a black-red blood sword.
"?! Who are you?!"
Shen Wan'er was shocked, her panic turning into a loud cry.
The black-robed man walked forward, letting out an evil laugh: "Hehehe! Who would have thought it's truly a Pure Yin Body! What a treasure I've stumbled upon!"
"Don't worry! I won't kill you! A perfect cauldron like you, I wouldn't let you die!"
Shen Wan'er didn't understand what Pure Yin Body meant.
All she knew was that the person in front of her was definitely not a good person.
"Don't come near me! I'm warning you!"
"Security! Where are the security guards?!"
Shen Wan'er screamed and backed away.
Seeing the black-robed man getting closer, she quickly grabbed things from the table and threw them wildly at him.
Scratch! Scratch! Scratch!
But all of this was futile.
The black-robed man easily sliced through the items thrown at him with his long sword, laughing and mocking: "Stop resisting! Everyone here, except you, has already lost the ability to move."
"Soon, they'll all be dead, and you'll be the lucky one."
"After all, your Pure Yin Body is perfect for dual cultivation and being a cauldron!"
Shen Wan'er had now backed into a corner, and the black-robed man stood in front of her.
Even though she wasn't a martial artist, she could feel the evil aura emanating from him.
Alright, now come quietly and follow me!
The black-robed man let out a sinister laugh and reached out his hand toward Shen Wan'er.
Her body trembled with fear, and she pressed herself against the corner in despair.
Help! Somebody, save me! Why did this happen to me?!
The next second.
Boom!!
"Don't touch her!!!"
With the sound of breaking glass, a voice filled with murderous intent echoed through the room.
Shen Wan'er's despairing eyes lit up immediately with the appearance of that voice. She looked toward the window.
An unexpected figure stood there.
It was.....
"Xiao Lin!!!"
Shen Wan'er shouted in excitement, it was him?!
She didn't even think about how Xiao Lin could suddenly break through the window from dozens of stories high.
All she knew was that right now, Xiao Lin was the only one who could save her!
So she immediately cried out, "Xiao Lin! Save me!"
It seemed that hearing Shen Wan'er's cry had stirred something in Xiao Lin's blood. The next second.
Roar!!
A golden dragon suddenly shot out from Xiao Lin's hand toward the black-robed man.
Seeing this move, the black-robed man instinctively tried to block, but...
Zzzt! Zzzt! Zzzt!
The tremendous power drove the black-robed man backward, smashing him hard into the wall.
"Ugh!!!"
The black-robed man coughed up blood, his lower body completely destroyed.
He weakly and shocked yelled at Xiao Lin, "What!! This is the technique of Dragon King Palace!!!"
"You... you are the young master of Dragon King Palace, Xiao Lin!!!"
"Hahaha!!! Who would have thought such a person existed in tiny Jianghai!!! I lost!!!"
"But it's okay! That great one will definitely kill all of you!!!"
"That woman with the Pure Yin Body will become the object of desire for everyone!!!"
"Xiao Lin! Even you! Won't be able to protect her forever before she breaks her Pure Yin Body!!!"
After shouting out the key information, the black-robed man breathed his last.
Shen Wan'er's mind was now buzzing.
What just happened?
A golden dragon?
This wasn't the real world, was it?
What's going on?
She tightly grasped Xiao Lin's hand, her voice trembling: "Xiao... Xiao Lin......"
"What is going on here?"
"Who is this black-robed man? Who are you? What was that golden dragon?"
"What is this Pure Yin Body? Is it because of this body that I was targeted by that man?"
"What does all this mean, Xiao Lin? What is happening in our world?"
Xiao Lin looked at Shen Wan'er, whose expression was filled with panic and fear.
His heart was filled with conflict, but.........
The black-robed man was right. Shen Wan'er would only be targeted by more and more people in the future.
Himself..... he must protect her! So, some things had to be revealed!
So..
Xiao Lin tightened his embrace around Shen Wan'er and said seriously, "Wan'er, actually........"
.......
.....
Meanwhile.
In the Heavenly Sword Sect, disciple Liu Jianxing was knelt on the ground in despair. By his feet lay a broken long sword.
He clutched his chest, his mouth full of blood.
"Even... even my sword intent couldn't defeat Mo Tianyun, who has joined the demonic path?"
Liu Jianxing looked at the dead bodies of his fellow disciples and let out a bitter laugh. He had lost.
Lost completely.
"Hehehe~ Liu Jianxing, feel my current power?"
"This is the power bestowed upon me by that great one."
"Join the Night, and you can be like me!"
"Now, I'll give you a chance. Beg for mercy, and I'll spare you and introduce you to that great one!"
Mo Tianyun, holding a black long sword, walked toward Liu Jianxing mockingly.
But upon hearing this, Liu Jianxing didn't beg for mercy. Instead, his expression became even more determined.
He shouted at Mo Tianyun, "The path of righteousness will never fall! You demons! You will all be eliminated!"
Upon hearing this, it seemed Mo Tianyun was angered. He sneered, "Fine! Then hold on to your righteousness!!!"
"And die!!!"
Mo Tianyun tightened his grip on the sword and fiercely swung it toward Liu Jianxing.
The latter slowly closed his eyes.
It was over. At four, he began practicing the sword; at ten, he became the master's direct disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect; at twenty, he became a Pre-deity swordmaster.
Now, at twenty-eight, he had comprehended his sword's intent. The thing that had kept him going until now...
Was to find his missing brother, but now...
Not finding his brother, and he was about to die.
But it was alright. Dying for exterminating demons was also... dying without regrets!
However, before Liu Jianxing could fully reflect.
Boom!
"Ugh!"
A powerful force suddenly slammed into them.
Following that was Mo Tianyun's scream.
Liu Jianxing immediately opened his eyes.
In front of him stood a figure. It was........
"Young master Gu?! Gu Yan?!"
Liu Jianxing exclaimed in disbelief.
Gu Yan didn't turn his head. His angry eyes remained fixed on the slammed-away Mo Tianyun. He threw a bottle of healing medicine at Liu Jianxing: "This is a third-grade recovery medicine from the Gu Family that can slowly restore one's energy."
"Wait a moment to explain the situation. Let me finish off this enemy first!"
Liu Jianxing hurriedly took the medicine and swallowed it, then said, "Alright! Be careful, Gu Yan! Mo Tianyun's strength is no longer what it used to be! He's at least at Xiantian peak!"
"Got it."
Gu Yan nodded and cautiously looked at Mo Tianyun, who had stood up again.
The battle is about to erupt!
