Chapter 437: Dragon-Seeking Pavilion: Greetings, Young Master!
Bai Qianqian would absolutely not allow the Fang Family to threaten Lin Xuan. She looked at Wu Qiming and said, "Tower Master Wu, handle this quickly."
"How should I handle it?" Wu Qiming was on the verge of tears.
He couldn’t afford to offend Lin Xuan, nor could he afford to offend the Fang Family! Now the young master of the Fang family had died here. How was he going to explain this?
"I don’t care. In any case, you must not reveal that it was Lin Xuan who did it," she stated firmly. "No matter how strong the Fang Family is, they are just a clan on Dragon Island. Lin Xuan, however, is a supreme guest. If anything were to happen to him, the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower will not spare you. You understand what’s at stake, don’t you?"
"I understand." Wu Qiming sighed and ultimately chose to stand on Lin Xuan’s side. He said, "Neither I nor my son will say a word about this matter."
"What about them?" Bai Qianqian glanced toward the other young masters, several of whom were from prominent families, now shivering with fear.
Wu Qiming looked at them and said, "Give them Forgetfulness Pills. This elixir can erase their memories of the past few days. By then, they won’t remember a thing. We’ll say that a mysterious person broke into the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower and had a conflict with Fang Fan, which resulted in Fang Fan being killed. As for who this person is, we have no idea."
It was the only way. Bai Qianqian nodded and said, "I’ll go get the Forgetfulness Pills now."
While Bai Qianqian and the others handled the scene, Lin Xuan arrived at the auction hall of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower. In a corner, he saw a familiar, absolutely beautiful figure that could attract countless gazes even from the shadows. At that moment, many people at the auction were secretly observing her.
"Senior Sister Ye," Lin Xuan walked over and said with a smile, "Long time no see."
"Junior Brother Lin, you’re here! That’s wonderful." Ye Qingwu, who had been extremely anxious, finally broke into a smile upon seeing Lin Xuan.
"Junior Brother Lin, please wait a moment. I still have a few things to handle here," she said.
"Are you waiting for the Five-Colored Glazed Elixir? I have it right here," Lin Xuan said, taking out the elixir.
Ye Qingwu exclaimed, "How is it with you?"
Lin Xuan fabricated an excuse. "I came to the Ten thousand Treasures Tower and ran into Bai Qianqian. It turns out she was transferred here as the Vice Tower Master, and she gave me this Five-Colored Glazed Elixir. She said it was the item your Ye Family won at auction and asked me to bring it to you."
"Qianqian, is she here too?" Ye Qingwu was surprised. She had met Bai Qianqian before at the Alchemy Master’s conference but didn’t expect her to have come to Dragon Island as well.
"She is, but she’s a bit busy right now and probably doesn’t have time to see you. Perhaps you two can meet some other time," Lin Xuan explained. "Senior Sister Ye, let’s leave here first."
Lin Xuan wanted to get Ye Qingwu away from this place of conflict. Ye Qingwu carefully stowed away the Five-Colored Glazed Elixir, and the two of them left the auction.
After exiting the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, Lin Xuan asked Ye Qingwu for the address of the Ye Family’s residence. "I still have some matters to attend to," he said. "I’ll come directly to the Ye Family estate to find you later."
After speaking, Lin Xuan turned and left. Ye Qingwu didn’t even have time to ask any questions and could only call out from behind, "Then be careful!"
Lin Xuan waved his hand and quickly departed. He intended to head to the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion.
The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion was a faction established by a Great Emperor from his Lin Family many years ago for the express purpose of finding Dragon Dao Treasures. Now, thousands of years later, the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion still existed. Lin Xuan planned to leverage its power to help him find Dragon Dao Treasures to enhance his Myriad Dragon Physique. The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion was a colossal entity on Dragon Island and could also be used to contend with the Fang Family. In any case, it would kill several birds with one stone.
The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion held an extraordinary and mysterious status on Dragon Island. Not only was it filled with countless experts, but they also possessed a special skill: the ability to find treasures. Many people on Dragon Island frequently came to the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion to request its experts to help them on treasure hunts.
When Lin Xuan arrived, he found the place incredibly lively. He saw a long queue outside the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion, but he didn’t line up. Instead, he walked directly toward the entrance.
Those in line shook their heads and sighed.
"Who is this kid? How dare he barge directly into the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion?"
"Is he courting death?"
"The rule of the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion is that everyone has to queue, whether you’re a mere martial artist or a powerful grandmaster."
"Otherwise, you’ll have your legs broken and be thrown out."
"Just watch. This kid’s going to get his legs broken and tossed out."
The experts inside the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion naturally noticed him and were furious. Someone dared to violate their rules? Truly courting death. An elder rushed over, preparing to attack Lin Xuan and break his legs.
But Lin Xuan simply took something out. It was a dragon-shaped jade pendant.
When the elder saw it, his eyes widened in disbelief.
That’s the Dragon-Seeking Jade! It’s an item that only the lineage of the founding ancestor possesses. Could this person be a descendant of the founder?
Thinking of this, the elder became incredibly respectful and personally invited Lin Xuan inside.
The onlookers who were originally ready to watch the spectacle were left dumbfounded.
"What the hell? How did he get invited inside?"
"Who on earth is that kid?"
"This is ridiculous!"
"Am I dreaming?"
"I remember, a year ago, even the young master of the Fang Family had to queue up respectfully here!"
"What’s this kid’s identity?"
The crowd erupted in an uproar.
Inside the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion, everyone was just as shocked. Even the Dragon Seeking Pavilion Master was alarmed.
Someone has come with the Dragon-Seeking Jade. Could it be a descendant of the founding ancestor?
In the main hall, the Pavilion Master and a group of elders surrounded Lin Xuan, incessantly studying the jade pendant.
It was real.
It was truly the Dragon-Seeking Jade.
"Young Master, we have been waiting for you," they said, kneeling down one by one.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
"Please, rise." Lin Xuan helped the Pavilion Master and the others to their feet. "I have come to see you about two matters. First, help me find Dragon Dao Treasures. I need to absorb Dragon Dao Power to enhance my strength. Second, I just killed a young master of the Fang Family. I need your help to handle the situation and resist the pressure from their family. Of course, if you can’t handle it, that’s fine too. I can manage on my own."
Lin Xuan’s Black Water Profound Snake was a powerful trump card, and he didn’t want to use it unless absolutely necessary. If he could use the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion to counter the Fang Family, that would be for the best. If not, he would use the snake.
The Dragon Seeking Pavilion Master promptly agreed. "Young Master, rest assured. I will immediately mobilize the full power of the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion to find treasures for you. As for the Fang Family, you can also rest easy. If they dare to make a move on you, Young Master, we will destroy them. Our Dragon-Seeking Pavilion is a first-class power on Dragon Island, even stronger than the Fang Family."
"That’s good to hear," Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
"Young Master, take this token." The Pavilion Master gave Lin Xuan a golden token. "This is the Dragon-Seeking Gold Medal. To see this token is to see me. With it, you can command anyone in the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion at any time."
Lin Xuan accepted the Dragon-Seeking Gold Medal. Afterwards, he departed for the Ye Family.
「On the other side.」
At the top floor of the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, the young masters who had taken the Forgetfulness Pills fainted. A short while later, they awoke.
What happened? Why are we here? Why can’t we remember what happened before?
The young masters looked completely bewildered. Suddenly, they noticed the corpse not far away!
It was Fang Fan’s body.
Fang Fan was dead!
Who killed Fang Fan?
At this moment, the young masters were dumbfounded.
"Who would be so audacious?"
"To actually kill Fang Fan!"
"Aren’t they afraid of the Fang Family’s retaliation?"
"Just watch, the Fang Family will definitely seek revenge!"
「On the other side.」
「The Fang Family.」
When the Fang Family received this news, they were stunned. Their family was a first-class power on Dragon Island; even other first-class families wouldn’t dare to provoke them lightly. Who would dare to kill their family’s young master? This had to be a joke. They simply didn’t believe it.
