Ten Thousand Dragons Technique

Chapter 445: Lin Xuan’s Luck Is Amazing!

The Fang family had thought Lin Xuan was the culprit, but now, they were dumbfounded. They discovered that his cultivation was indeed only that of an eight-star Martial General. With such a low cultivation level, how could he possibly have killed Fang Fan, who was a three-star Grandmaster?

Unless this kid can fight across six realms... But that’s absolutely impossible. No one can fight across six cultivation stages. It seems we’ve found the wrong person!

The other people in the crowd were in an uproar.

"Is he really just an eight-star Martial General? In that case, it couldn’t have been him."

"Yeah, the Fang family must have made a mistake."

"The Fang family is a joke. How could they get something like this wrong?"

"Then who on earth killed Fang Fan?"

On the Ye family’s side, everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief. To be honest, they had been nervous to the extreme just a moment ago, but it now seemed to be a simple misunderstanding. The matter of Fang Fan’s death likely had nothing to do with Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan, on the other hand, was rather surprised. I’m the one who killed Fang Fan. I originally thought the Fang family had found a clue and came for me. I was even planning to summon the Snake King and unleash a massacre. I can’t believe they’ve stopped suspecting me. What happened? Could something have gone wrong at the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower? Otherwise, the Fang family should have found me long ago.

Lin Xuan furrowed his brow. Since the Fang family isn’t making a move, there’s no need for me to summon the Snake King.

One of the Fang family elders wasn’t ready to give up. "Could it be that the kid has a powerful Spiritual Artifact on him?" he suggested. "Should we capture and interrogate him?"

Just as Clan Leader Fang hesitated, a figure flew over from the distance. It was an elder from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion. His arrival shocked the countless onlookers.

The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion was a Treasure Hunting Sect with incredibly formidable techniques. Filled with masters, it was also considered a first-class power.

The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion is here too? Are they just here to watch the show? the crowd wondered.

The elder from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion moved to stand directly with the Ye Family. Although he didn’t say a word, his stance was perfectly clear: he was supporting them.

Seeing this, the crowd erupted in another clamor. When did the Ye Family find a backer as powerful as the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion? This was truly enviable.

Even the members of the Ye Family were somewhat stunned. They had never had any significant relationship with the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion. However, they didn’t offer any explanation. It was better to let people misunderstand. Their Clan Leader was injured, and the Ye Family’s strength had greatly diminished. For a long time, covetous rivals had been waiting for a chance to make a move against them. Now, they could use the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion’s reputation to intimidate their enemies.

Only Lin Xuan knew the truth. The Dragon-Seeking Pavilion is here to protect me. I’m their Young Master.

Seeing the man from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion side with the Ye Family, many from the Fang family frowned. The lead Grandmaster of the Fang family shook his head and said, "It’s not the boy. Let’s go. Staying any longer will just be embarrassing."

Clan Leader Fang nodded and, with a great wave of his hand, led the Fang family away. His expression, however, was incredibly ugly. This time, they had made a complete fool of themselves. They had originally thought it was Lin Xuan, but he was just an eight-star Martial General. How could an eight-star Martial General possibly kill Fang Fan? The whole affair had become a massive joke.

Those other clans and sects are probably mocking us behind our backs right now. The prestigious, first-class Fang family! We couldn’t even identify our real enemy! What a disgrace!

Thinking of this, Clan Leader Fang gritted his teeth in anger. He said coldly, "Continue the investigation. We must find out who killed Fang Fan."

「On the other side.」

The elder from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion also departed swiftly. The Ye Family’s crisis was resolved. Madam Ye and the others breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Ruxue looked at Lin Xuan and said, "Kid, you’re really lucky that the people from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion came. Otherwise, with the Fang family’s arrogance, they might have just attacked you directly."

Lin Xuan laughed. "It’s not that I’m lucky; it’s the Fang family that’s lucky. They’re fortunate they didn’t make a move. Otherwise, I would have made them disappear without a trace."

"Yeah, right," Ye Ruxue said, completely speechless. How strong was the Fang family’s lineup? It had so many Grandmasters, and an even more powerful one leading them! That lineup is enough to sweep through anything! How could Lin Xuan, a mere eight-star Martial General, possibly withstand it?

Madam Ye, however, was puzzled. "What I’m curious about is why the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion would help us," she said. "Our Ye Family has never had much of a relationship with them."

"Indeed, that is strange," Ye Ruxue added, equally confused.

"Of course, it was because of me. The people from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion came to protect me," Lin Xuan stated once more.

At these words, everyone from the Ye Family was stunned. Madam Ye was dumbfounded. Ye Ruxue was dumbfounded. Ye Qingwu was also dumbfounded.

The people from the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion came to protect Lin Xuan? This was too incredible to believe. But soon, Ye Ruxue burst out laughing.

"Lin Xuan, you’re really full of it! Even if you’ve mastered the Anomalous Fire and are an alchemy genius, you still couldn’t order around the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion. Your titles of Champion Marquis and General Long Ming don’t mean anything here."

Madam Ye didn’t believe him either. Her face darkened. It’s one thing for this boy to boast once, but does he have to keep going on and on without end?

She warned him coldly, "Young Master Lin, do not speak such nonsense. You have already provoked the Fang family; do not provoke the Dragon-Seeking Pavilion as well. Otherwise, no one in heaven or on earth will be able to save you!"

With that, she turned and walked into the residence, ignoring Lin Xuan completely.

For the next few days, Lin Xuan stayed with the Ye Family. He spent an hour each day helping Clan Leader Ye expel the poison from his body. The rest of the time, he either cultivated on his own or spent it with Ye Qingwu. The two of them would chat, eat together, or go out shopping. Gradually, Lin Xuan gained a better understanding of Dragon Island.

During this period, Ye Ruxue came to invite Lin Xuan out several times, but he refused her every time, which drove her to the brink of madness.

「One day.」

When Ye Ruxue came to invite Lin Xuan again, she found two other people with him: a middle-aged man and an exquisitely beautiful woman.

Ye Ruxue was taken aback. How does Lin Xuan know other people on Dragon Island? Isn’t this his first time here? Logically, he shouldn’t know anyone besides us.

She felt something was strange, so she quietly moved closer to eavesdrop.

What she heard startled her.

The two visitors were, of course, Tower Master Wu and Bai Qian Qian from the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower.

"I heard the Fang family came looking for you earlier. It really scared me to death," Bai Qian Qian said. "But thankfully, they didn’t find out it was you. Otherwise, if the Fang family knew you were the one who killed Fang Fan, they definitely wouldn’t have let it slide."

Tower Master Wu added, "Although we’ve cleaned up all the clues at the Ten Thousand Treasures Tower, the Fang family is still a first-class family. They might be able to find some trace. So, Young Master Lin, you must be careful."

Lin Xuan replied, "Don’t worry. If the Fang family really dares to make a move, I’ll make them disappear without a trace."

"Lin Xuan, can you stop bragging? This is about your life!" Bai Qian Qian stomped her foot in exasperation. How can you boast about something so important? If the Fang family really finds out, you’ll be doomed!

Tower Master Wu also thought Lin Xuan was boasting. How could Lin Xuan possibly stand up to the Fang family?

"Young Master, please be careful. If anything happens, be sure to notify us immediately."

Lin Xuan nodded, indicating that he understood.

「On the other side.」

Ye Ruxue’s face had gone pale. Heavens, what did I just hear? It was Lin Xuan who killed Fang Fan! This is explosive news!

She turned and ran.

"Mother! This is bad!" Ye Ruxue cried out as she returned.

Madam Ye jumped in fright. She was starting to dread those words. She asked nervously, "What is it now?"

"Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan he..."

"What about Lin Xuan?"

"Lin Xuan killed Fang Fan!" Ye Ruxue blurted out the earth-shattering secret she had overheard.

Hearing this, Madam Ye became furious instead. "Have you learned to lie now, too? Are you trying to trick me? How could Lin Xuan, an eight-star Martial General, possibly kill Fang Fan!"

Madam Ye simply didn’t believe it.
