"Yun Xiao? He's actually Yun Xiao?"
Gao Xuan's calm words on the verge of death brought a complex emotion to him, but for the onlookers, it was as if a bomb had exploded.
For the past two months, the na Yun Xiao has been as loud as thunder throughout the entire Tenglong Continent. Everywhere one goes, among nurous discussions, this na is inescapable.
The victory at the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield was the most talked-about event for the human side during this period, and every incident was linked to Yun Xiao.
It was this seemingly just-twenty-year-old young boy who, starting from Gushan City, led many human cultivators to turn defense into attack, ultimately striking deep at the heart and destroying the Strange Spirit Clan's earth-shattering conspiracy.
However, after the great battle on Impermanence Island, that young boy nad Yun Xiao disappeared without a trace. Although there were rumors that Yun Xiao returned to the ridian Refining Master Guild to recuperate, as ti went on, various speculations erged.
Among these speculations, a particular theory gradually took the forefront: Yun Xiao, gravely wounded during his fierce battle with the Holy Grade Heavenly Spirit on Impermanence Island, succumbed to his injuries upon returning to the ridian Refining Master Association, and passed away.
Due to Yun Xiao's significance to the entire Tenglong Continent, the ridian Refining Master Association deliberately concealed the news of his death, so as not to dampen the morale of the continent's cultivators.
This rumor, despite its unclear origins, beca increasingly vivid, making many people believe it as if they witnessed Yun Xiao's death themselves.
After all, in over two months' ti, not a single update of Yun Xiao surfaced, not even within the ridian Refining Master Association, where many were unaware of his current situation.
Who would have expected that the person rumored to be dead would stand alive right in front of them today and, in a single move, kill the Gao brothers, late-stage Earth Bending Realm experts?
The most effective way to counter rumors is to speak with facts, and what could be more convincing than standing alive in front of others to prove one's life?
At this mont, no one questioned Yun Xiao's identity. As Gao Xuan said at his death, no other youth on the entire Tenglong Continent could be so young and powerful; he was one of a kind.
Although rumors ntioned Yun Xiao had young companions when he returned from the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield to Impermanence Island, those companions looked fundantally different from Yun Xiao.
Apart from the chubby Ling Wan, Yun Xiao's other companions were either won or Vein Demons. Naturally, the onlookers wouldn't connect these thoughts.
Witnessing such a legendary figure before the start of the ridian Refining Conference left the crowd astonished yet fortunate, with a hint of excitent.
As for the silent Gao brothers, nobody cared now. Even if they held any lingering thoughts, it was rely to lant the brothers' stupidity.
Of all people, they provoked soone at the peak of fa. In their eyes, even Wuyan Palace and Spirit Fighting Comrce wouldn't dare provoke Yun Xiao now.
For these unscrupulous fraudsters, their deaths ant the removal of pests; Yun Xiao was indeed protecting the people by ridding them of harm.
Whoosh!
Yun Xiao naturally ignored the fervent and unusual thoughts of the surrounding onlookers. He extended a hand, and the Waist Storage coiled around Gao Xiang's waist was sucked into his hand.
In the next mont, a bead exuding a faint breeze appeared out of nowhere in Yun Xiao's right palm, identical to the one he had just collected.
"Wind-stabilizing Pearl!"
Seeing the bead, everyone sighed once more. Originally, the Wind-stabilizing Pearl could have been exchanged for with just a middle-tier Earth Rank elixir, yet it cost the Gao brothers their lives. Everything has its cause and effect, and the brothers brought it upon themselves.
"The show's over. Everyone, disperse!"
Having put away the Wind-stabilizing Pearl and the Xuanzhi Pill, Yun Xiao turned slightly with a faint smile, speaking words that left everyone with mixed expressions.
The commotion here had attracted more and more cultivators from the fair, and through word of mouth, nearly everyone in this area knew of Yun Xiao's identity.
Yun Xiao attended the fair this ti to hunt for treasures, and if everyone knew his identity, how could he continue? Though his identity could awe others, it would undoubtedly bring inconvenience.
For instance, so stall owners skilled in flattery, upon learning his identity, might deliberately offer heavenly materials and earthly treasures at significantly lower prices just to gain favor.
For instance, there are others driven by greed. Knowing that Yun Xiao cos from Lianyun Mountain and has acquired many Strange Spirit Crystals at the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield, they intend to make a big profit from him, which is entirely possible.
Such a significant identity naturally prevents Yun Xiao from wandering freely like an ordinary person in this region. Wherever he goes, he inevitably attracts many fervent gazes.
"Don't follow , or you'll end up like the Gao brothers!"
Seeing that as soon as he stepped forward a few paces, many figures began tailing him, Yun Xiao's face darkened. He turned his head and pointed at the Gao brothers, his eyes carrying a hint of coldness.
At these words, the cultivators who intended to follow and build rapport halted their steps abruptly, their eyes even showing a trace of fear.
Yun Xiao is quite notorious, and much of his reputation is tied to killing. Not to ntion his deed of slaying Strangers Spirits at the Slaughter Spirit Battlefield, many of the top talents from human forces have also died by Yun Xiao's hands.
For example, Su Jian of the Spirit Fighting Comrce, and Long Xiwawa from Wuyan Palace, each of these individuals are super talents that even the top four forces must treat seriously, yet they all fell at Yun Xiao's hands.
Not to ntion the Gao brothers in front of us, who were fierce earlier but ultimately beca two soundless corpses. These people could not be sure if the young man would possibly act again to kill if they followed.
Although fighting is forbidden at the Lianyun Mountain Trade Fair, Yun Xiao's identity and strength an that even if he kills them, Lianyun Mountain may not handle it bureaucratically?
None of the cultivators who co to the Lianyun Mountain Trade Fair are fools. Sensing that the young man dislikes being followed, they realized that perhaps he doesn't want more people to know his true identity.
Indeed, Yun Xiao just wants to enjoy this trade fair at Lianyun Mountain with the identity of an ordinary person, which would definitely spare him a lot of trouble.
Having thus convinced the group of cultivators, seeing no one else following him, he let out a big sigh of relief, disappearing into the crowd within a few flickers.
The trade fair at Lianyun Mountain is vast, and incidents in a small subsection would not quickly spread throughout the fair. After so ti, Yun Xiao resud his leisurely stroll through the area.
If seen from a high altitude, one would notice this trade fair is divided into two major street-like areas, with two trading streets running down the sides, connecting and forming an oval.
And when Yun Xiao managed to shake off the enthusiastic crowd from behind and moved to another section, he noticed a sowhat familiar figure.
...
Lin Xuanhao, a young master from the Lin family in Yujiang City in the Southern Domain of the Tenglong Continent. When Yun Xiao first arrived on the Dragon Continent, the first person he encountered was him.
At that ti, due to the spatial power of the Boundary Tower, Yun Xiao was brought to a height of a hundred zhang and then slamd down, inadvertently saving this Lin family young master from being bitten by a spotted bamboo leopard.
Later, while recovering from his injuries at the Lin family, Yun Xiao discovered the conspiracy of Lin family foster son Lin Xuantian and eventually, with his strength alone, thwarted the plot, removing the potential problems for Lin Xuanhao.
Finally, Lin Xuanhao and Yun Xiao traveled together to Yuyang City to participate in the Spirit Fighting Conference hosted by the Spirit Fighting Comrce. It was at this conference that Yun Xiao first made an enemy of the Spirit Fighting Comrce.
To avoid implicating Lin Xuanhao and the Lin family, Yun Xiao parted ways with Lin Xuanhao after leaving Yuyang City. Over the years, for such an acquaintance, he had long put aside excessive impressions.
Whether inspired by Yun Xiao's prowess or not, when Lin Xuanhao returned to Yujiang City from Yuyang City, he went into an intense closed-door cultivation mode.
This kind of diligent cultivation indeed significantly improved Lin Xuanhao's abilities.
In just a few years, not only did his ridian Qi Cultivation level advance from the Spiritual Vein Realm to the Seeking Origin Realm Early Stage, but he also luckily activated a Fire Attribute Ancestor Vein, becoming a genuinely recognized ridian Refining Master.
Although currently Lin Xuanhao's ridian Refining Level is only at the Spiritual Rank Advanced, he is younger than Yun Xiao. Given ti, his prospects are boundless.
As for the Tenglong Continent, the ridian Refining Master Association is certainly the most knowledgeable about the art of ridian Refining, and it has been Lin Xuanhao's most aspired holy land since becoming a ridian Refining Master.
Previously, Lin Xuanhao had been planning that once he broke through to the Earth Rank Low Level ridian Refining Master, he would co to participate in the disciple selection at Lianyun Mountain to beco a direct disciple.
However, news received more than a month ago made Lin Xuanhao revise his plans and decide to co directly to Lianyun Mountain, as he could hardly wait any longer.
However, having just arrived at the Lianyun Mountain range, Lin Xuanhao encountered so difficulty at the trade fair. Though already a cultivator at the Seeking Origin Realm Early Stage, in this place, it was still sowhat inadequate.
