152: Chapter 151 First-Grade Rune 152: Chapter 151 First-Grade Rune “Speak carefully!” the Tong Family Master said sternly. Uncle Cheng then told everything he knew. When the elders heard that the Cang Family Disciples had taken action, they were all furious. “Are you saying this young man named Lin Xuan not only killed a Fourth-stage Demon Beast but also severely injured Cang Ji and Cang Qi?” “Is he really in the Spirit Sea Second Realm?” “That’s impossible, how could such a genius emerge from a backward place like Yunzhou?” The elders clearly didn’t believe it because someone from the Spirit Sea Second Realm couldn’t possibly achieve such things! “Don’t jump to conclusions,” the Tong Family Master said somberly, “Although he was born in Yunzhou, he might have a powerful master.” “Master? What kind of expert could there be in Yunzhou?” an elder scoffed. “It doesn’t have to be someone from Yunzhou,” the Tong Family said. “Some great masters like to wander around; it’s not impossible that they went to Yunzhou.” “Ask Lin Xuan to come out,” said the Tong Family Master. Uncle Cheng’s body flashed, turning into a streak of light as he hurried toward the inner courtyard. Several elders stood still, many of them sneering inwardly, “I want to see what kind of young man he is, boasting so highly!” With Uncle Cheng’s skill, it didn’t take long for him to arrive at Lin Xuan’s residence. “Eh?” Uncle Cheng was surprised, as he sensed a special aura in the room. He stepped forward and pushed on the door, only to find another force pushing him back. “An array?” Uncle Cheng was even more astonished— he didn’t expect a martial artist in the Spirit Sea Second Realm to possess such an advanced defensive array. “Could he really have a master behind him?” Uncle Cheng hesitated, afraid to act rashly. With the defensive array present, the person inside must be cultivating. If he acted recklessly, he might disturb Lin Xuan, causing him harm. In the past, a backlash would just be a backlash; to face a family crisis, the sacrifice of a martial artist in the Spirit Sea Second Realm was nothing. But now, since Lin Xuan might have an Old Monster behind him, offending him could bring a huge crisis to the family. “Sigh, let the Cang Family handle this crisis!” Uncle Cheng decided to retreat and planned to leave. Creak! Just as he thought to leave, the door unexpectedly opened. “Young Hero Lin!” Uncle Cheng turned around, somewhat startled. Lin Xuan clasped his hands and smiled. He had just completed the Soul Seal and sensed Uncle Cheng’s presence, so he came out. “May I know why the senior is looking for this junior?” Lin Xuan asked. Uncle Cheng looked at the young man in front of him, marveling internally. He couldn’t see through this young man anymore. Just yesterday, he could use a secret technique to sense Lin Xuan’s cultivation level and aura, but now, he couldn’t detect anything. Lin Xuan sensed Uncle Cheng’s probing, smiled slightly, and said nothing. After forming the Soul Seal, his Soul Power had improved again, now fully reaching the level of a First-Grade Rune Master. If he wished, ordinary people could not discern any information about him. Unless someone also practiced Soul Power or their cultivation was much higher than his, they wouldn’t be able to see. With a thought, Lin Xuan exhibited the cultivation of the Spirit Sea Second Realm. Feeling the change in Lin Xuan, Uncle Cheng took a deep breath and then said, “The family head has asked for you to come over.” “For me?” Lin Xuan was slightly startled. “It’s about the Cang Family,” Uncle Cheng explained. Lin Xuan nodded. He followed Uncle Cheng, his Soul Power circulating, probing the surroundings. As they reached halfway, he sensed something outside the door. Immediately, his expression changed. “Uncle Cheng, Tong Lan and the others are in danger!” After saying this, Lin Xuan’s body flickered, and he quickly left. In the Spirit Sea Realm, martial artists generally did not practice Soul Power unless they were inscribers like Lin Xuan. After entering the Three Spirit Realms, martial artists began to cultivate Soul Power, but without special methods, the Soul Power would not be particularly strong. Moreover, as Lin Xuan’s cultivation and horizon expanded, he gained a deeper understanding of martial artists. For instance, Uncle Cheng in front of him, though his aura was strong, was still at the Spirit Sea Realm level and had not advanced to the Three Spirit Realms. Even in the Xuantian Sect, many elders had not entered the Three Spirit Realms. Only a minority had entered the Three Spirit Realms. Unable to sense the situation outside, Uncle Cheng could only follow behind Lin Xuan. Outside the Tong Family home, Tong Lan stepped back again, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. “Haha, you are truly useless!” Cang Lei laughed loudly, “Your Tong Family doesn’t have anyone capable of fighting!” “Hmph, if Brother Chen were here, you wouldn’t have the nerve to be so presumptuous!” Tong Yu supported Tong Lan, fuming. “Tong Chen? He’s just a poisoned weakling!” Cang Lei roared with laughter, “Even if he were well now, he wouldn’t stand a chance against my older brother!” “Nonsense!” Tong Yu shouted indignantly, “If Brother Chen weren’t injured, he would definitely beat your brother until he lost his teeth!” “You’re asking for it!” Cang Lei, furious, threw a punch. His older brother, Cang Bao, and Tong Chen were known as the twin prodigies of Guangning City, but Tong Chen had always been a step ahead of his brother. Since Tong Chen had been injured, his brother’s cultivation had surged forward, making him the leading youth in Guangning City. And now, the Tong Family was once again using that invalid to challenge his older brother, how could he not be furious? Whoosh! This punch, carrying fierce thunder and lightning, came crashing down. Tong Yu’s Second Realm cultivation couldn’t resist it, and Tong Lan, having suffered internal injuries, probably couldn’t handle this fierce punch either. The Cang Family’s disciples sneered with their arms crossed, while the Tong Family’s disciples were frantically worried, some of the weaker ones even covering their eyes. From afar, the Tong Family elders watching in secret turned pale and some couldn’t help but prepare to intervene. However, at that moment, a golden shadow appeared before everyone’s eyes, quickly rushing toward the thunderous fist. Boom! A loud noise erupted, and thunder and lightning filled the sky, crackling violently. Blue energy swept across the area at a visibly fast speed, leaving scorch marks wherever it passed. Crackle! Crackle! Tong Yu covered her mouth in shock. Beside her, Tong Lan was pressed down by a hand; he didn’t need to fight anymore because someone was standing in front of him. “Brother Lin!” Tong Lan exclaimed joyfully. The Tong Family’s disciples opened their eyes, while the disciples from the Cang Family were thrown into disarray. Cang Lei’s pupils contracted; the power of his punch was broken, and the thunder and lightning had no effect. This had never happened before in his cultivation journey. In front of him, a hand was chopping at his wrist, directing all his punching force into the ground beside them. There, a large, charred hole appeared, bottomless. Cang Lei looked up and saw a handsome young man, looking at him with a vaguely amused expression. “Who are you?” Cang Lei gritted his teeth and asked. “Lin Xuan.” The voice was very calm. “What? You are Lin Xuan!” Cang Lei cried out in shock, disbelievingly staring at the young man before him. In his mind, anyone capable of defeating people like Cang Qi must be an older youth. But here, this person was very young, and his cultivation… Was only at the Spirit Sea Second Layer Heaven!
