Hearing Lin Wudao's words, Lin Xiao knew that he must have sensed Chen Xiaoyao's presence.

"Senior, he's targeting you!"

Lin Xiao didn't need to use telepathy anymore and spoke directly.

"Hehe! Lin Wudao, you old bastard, long time no see."

Chen Xiaoyao made no attempt to hide and stepped directly out of the Heavenly Demon Ring, coldly staring at Lin Wudao.

The moment the two appeared, sparks flew in the air.

"You're still alive?" Lin Wudao had only intended to test the waters, but he hadn't expected Chen Xiaoyao to actually be there.

"Hehe! Thanks to this young friend, he gave me a precious elixir of immortality."

"As for you, after all these years, your cultivation has not improved but has actually declined quite a bit. I don't think you have much lifespan left."

Chen Xiaoyao said in a calm tone.

"An elixir of immortality, you're really lucky."

Lin Wudao's tone remained icy.

"So, my apprentices died at your hands?"

Lin Wudao abruptly changed the subject.

"Hmph! I don't have that kind of ability. This was all done by the Coffin of Burial. If you want revenge, you've probably come to the wrong person."

Chen Xiaoyao said.

He knew about the Burial Coffin, and Lin Wudao naturally recognized it as well.

He dared not confront the Burial Coffin head-on, and Lin Wudao naturally dared not either.

As expected, Lin Wudao's expression changed drastically upon hearing this name.

"The Coffin of Burial Heaven? Hmph, you encountered something like that and still survived? Do you think I'm an idiot?!"

Chen Xiaoyao nodded and said, "You look like an idiot. Why would I, with my status as the Emperor, lie to you?"

"Your disciples are really unlucky. They originally wanted to kill young friend Lin, but they were captured by the Burial Coffin."

"You probably know about this thing; they can't survive without it."

Upon hearing this, Lin Wudao fell into deep thought.

Even with his arrogance and conceit, the Coffin of Burial Heaven dared not confront such a forbidden entity head-on.

Since that's the case, I won't seek revenge on those disciples.

However, he still wanted to avenge his youngest apprentice.

Thinking of this, Lin Wudao looked coldly at Lin Xiao.

"Since my disciples died at the hands of the Burial Coffin, then so be it. But my little disciple Zhou Ping did indeed die at your hands, didn't he? Lin Xiao."

"That's right! Dean Lin, you're trying to avenge your disciple?"

"However, if you ask me, this grudge can be left unresolved. I was just looking for a successor when I had nothing else to do, but your disciple is blocking my way. I had no choice but to kill him."

Lin Xiao said it casually.

These words sound as if Lin Wudao is a bad teacher, and that his disciples are all useless.

"You!!!" Lin Wudao, who had never been angry in many years, broke his composure at this moment.

His anger surged, and a terrifying killing intent seemed to materialize as he slashed at Lin Xiao.

"Lin Wudao, have you forgotten what you promised?"

A middle-aged man suddenly appeared behind Lin Wudao and put his hand on Lin Wudao's shoulder.

In an instant, Lin Wudao, who was furious, calmed down.

Chen Xiaoyao's expression changed slightly upon seeing this person.

"It was you?"

"I never expected you to actually get involved in things. I thought you had stopped caring about anything!"

Chen Xiaoyao also knew Lao Gui, although they weren't close, he knew that was the name.

"Sigh! Young people these days are getting more and more mischievous. They can't stay out of the way and not get involved."

Old Ghost shook his head helplessly.

He then looked at Lin Xiao, his gaze hardening.

"Oh! Interesting. I didn't expect you to have such good fortune that you went to that place and gained their approval. Tsk tsk, no wonder you dare to act so recklessly in the city."

"However, you'd better watch out, kid. Behave yourself from now on and wait for the Burial Ground to close, or just leave."

Old Ghost spoke to Lin Xiao with extreme politeness.

He saw the Heavenly Dao Academy runes hidden on Lin Xiao's forehead.

As the person in charge of the Corpse Burial City, I have lived here for so long.

It's fair to say that he knows a great deal about the ancient burial grounds, and he likely has some understanding of the Heavenly Dao Academy as well.

They also knew what it meant to be a person who had received the Heavenly Dao Academy's inheritance.

That's why Lao Gui reminded Lin Xiao.

"Don't worry, senior. You know my character. I never go looking for trouble."

Lin Xiao said with a smile.

"Hmm! Good to know!" Old Ghost didn't want to say anything more.

Then he looked at Lin Wudao.

"Let's go, let's have a drink with the old man."

Lin Wudao tried to resist, but he felt that he could not break free from the hand on his shoulder no matter what he did.

Left with no other choice, he could only sigh.

"Yes, senior!"

The next second, Old Ghost and Lin Wudao left.

"Hmph! This old bastard looks like he doesn't have much time left. If you run into him again, he'll definitely fight to the death to kill you."

"It seems I need to make proper preparations."

Chen Xiaoyao's expression turned extremely solemn as he spoke.

He then looked at Lin Xiao and asked, "Boy, could you lend me some of the spiritual liquid in your gourd?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"Sure, but you can only have one sip."

After Lin Xiao finished speaking, he took out the Purple Gold Gourd and refined everything inside.

Feeling the weight of the gourd, he then poured out some of the spiritual liquid inside.
