After fighting Han Chenhua, the other party has been out of contact ever since?
Don't you want to read what you're saying? You're practically stating it outright!
Not to mention, Lin Xiuyuan had only just broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment before entering the secret realm.
Back then, when faced with Han Chenhua's challenge, this disciple said that the chances of winning weren't very high, right?
Good grief, after entering the secret realm... the other party simply vanished without a trace?
Moreover, he can even face off against the chief disciple of the Ghost Spirit Sect head-on.
Together they dealt him a severe blow on the spot, causing the Ghost Spirit Sect to collapse and leaving behind dozens of corpses...
For a moment, Wang Yangshan didn't know how to describe his feelings.
Wang Yangshan looked at Lin Xiuyuan with a strange expression, hesitated for a long time, and finally blurted out, "Did you make a mistake while cultivating in the secret realm? Are you a little... confused?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan was so angry that he almost spat out blood. What kind of time is this, and his master is still so unreliable?
Lin Xiuyuan took a deep breath, cupped his hands, and said, "Master, what about the other group of people who came out with me? They've already gone to the Hall of Affairs. I came to find you ahead of time. For now, I ask that you help me obtain the spiritual item as soon as possible. As long as I successfully break through to the Purple Mansion stage, I guess this mess won't be pinned on me anymore!"
Wang Yangshan sighed helplessly. It seemed that this was indeed true!
But isn't this too bizarre?
Aside from being possessed, he really couldn't figure out how his disciple could have made such a big leap in just a few years.
However, the signs of possession were quite obvious. Unless both parties were cultivators of the same realm, his divine sense, being a whole realm higher, could easily detect whether the other party had been possessed!
But why?
Wang Yangshan shook his head, suppressing the distracting thoughts in his mind. If things were really as Lin Xiuyuan said, then it was quite serious!
The Han family is powerful; they might actually have a way to get rid of Lin Xiuyuan.
Fortunately, the Han family shouldn't find out so quickly. As long as he pulls some strings, protecting Lin Xiuyuan shouldn't be a problem.
The key question is whether there is clear evidence for this matter?
Otherwise, even if they were in the midst of a battle within a secret realm, the Han family would have plenty of ways to make things difficult for Lin Xiuyuan.
"Is he missing without a trace, or did you kill him yourself? Are you sure no one saw it?"
Wang Yangshan straightened his expression, completely recovering from his astonishment and shock, and looked at Lin Xiuyuan, asking in a deep voice.
His gaze carried a hint of sternness.
At the same time, an extremely strong divine sense emanated from Wang Yangshan and enveloped him!
For a moment, Lin Xiuyuan felt an inexplicable and immense pressure, both in his mind and body.
He was slightly taken aback, glanced at Wang Yangshan, and his thoughts raced.
Suddenly, his expression relaxed, and he said, "There's no news of him. No one should have seen me fight him... No, no one should have seen it. Only my two junior sisters, Zhong Jiajia and Pi Shujun, left before we fought."
Then, Lin Xiuyuan calmly cupped his hands and said, "It was indeed not this disciple who killed Han Chenhua. I don't know why he has disappeared without a trace!"
Upon hearing Lin Xiuyuan's words, Wang Yangshan's expression suddenly darkened, and he looked at Lin Xiuyuan with even colder eyes.
Accompanied by the powerful divine sense that swept over him, an immense pressure enveloped Lin Xiuyuan, causing alarm bells to ring in his mind and a strong sense of crisis to rise within him.
But under such sharp gaze and powerful divine pressure, Lin Xiuyuan maintained a calm expression throughout.
A few breaths later.
The terrifying pressure suddenly dissipated.
Wang Yangshan's expression returned to calm, a hint of appreciation flashing in his eyes, but then a sense of concentration welled up within him as he said, "Very good. Your soul showed no fluctuation whatsoever. I estimate you should have no major problems dealing with the Enforcement Hall."
"But there's still the hurdle of the Heart-Questioning Array... I'll look into that later and see if we can avoid it."
"As long as this matter does not give the Han family an excuse, they will not be able to target you in the sect in the future. After all, you are a prodigy of the Lingxiao lineage, and the elders of the Lingxiao lineage will surely take care of this matter."
"On the contrary, even if we can protect you now, the Han family will have a reason to easily cause trouble for you within the sect and hinder your path in the future!"
Wang Yangshan stood up, his expression grave, and said, "You stay in my cave for now, just in case. Although the Han family probably won't know about this so soon, since someone has gone to the Hall of Affairs to report, we should receive the news soon..."
"I need to verify your merits as soon as possible, obtain the auxiliary spiritual item, and immediately go into seclusion to break through to the Purple Mansion stage. Once you reach the Purple Mansion stage, even if there is evidence of this matter, you will be fine, but punishment will be inevitable!"
"By the way, don't you have a high-grade Jade Marrow Pill? And I can get you a high-grade Jade Marrow Pill very quickly, which should be enough to break through to the Purple Mansion stage, right? After all, verifying merits is a bit troublesome, and other auxiliary spiritual items haven't been easy to obtain yet. I'll give you some spiritual items first?"
Lin Xiuyuan pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "This disciple still wants to wait until I obtain the spiritual item before attempting a breakthrough. Besides, this disciple's aptitude is not particularly high. Only by being fully prepared can we be absolutely certain of success, after all, it is the Purple Mansion Pass! If it is truly impossible, then using a slightly inferior spiritual item to assist in attempting a breakthrough is also acceptable."
Seeing this, Wang Yangshan narrowed his eyes, feeling that it wasn't as simple as Lin Xiuyuan had described. However, this was a personal path, and he shouldn't interfere too much. So he nodded and took a step forward.
Lin Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He was genuinely afraid that Wang Yangshan would investigate further, which would have been difficult to explain later.
