Reading the first sentence, a chill suddenly ran down Lin Tianyun’s spine. He could feel a sinister aura coming through the handwriting. Especially the words “Devil Sovereign.” Lin Tianyun instantly believed this person was a true devil.
“To anyone who picked this book up, it seems fate brought us together. Before anything else, I would like to introduce myself a bit… Two thousand years ago, I was the number one devil in the world. You cannot imagine how many lives died under my hands, but it doesn’t matter now.”
Lin Tianyun’s face sank as he continued to read.
“I was hunted by a group of righteous hypocrites and ended up in this place. Since you came here, I believe you have already found yourself in a dead-end situation. Hehehe… Don’t worry, I have no ill intention of harming you.”
“Because my injuries are too severe, I decided to use the last bit of my strength to leave my legacy behind. As long as you inherit my power, no one in this world could be your opponent!”
The writings seemed to have a seductive power that instantly attracted Lin Tianyun’s full attention. He quickly flipped to the next page and read the contents.
“Have you seen the Frozen Heart Lotus in the middle of the pond? As long as you take it away, everything underneath it will be yours. Come on! Do your best.”
Lin Tianyun had no idea that he was stimulated by magic left behind by the so-called Devil Sovereign. All he knew right now was to get out of this place as soon as possible and return to his mother’s side.
Without thinking further, Lin Tianyun turned to look at the Frozen Heart Lotus in the pond, and he discovered there was a large iron chest hiding beneath it. This chest must be something the Devil Sovereign left behind.
Lin Tianyun slowly walked to the pond and hesitated for a moment before trying to step into it. The moment his foot touched the water, a bone-freezing coldness immediately pierced into his body, going straight to the bones and spreading to every corner of his body.
His instinct immediately kicked in as he pulled his foot up and used the tiny bit of profound energy he had to relieve the cold.
“What should I do?” Lin Tianyun’s expression was ugly. With his current strength, it was impossible for him to get into the pond. Let alone reaching the Frozen Heart Lotus’s position.
***
Two days passed in a blink of an eye since Lin Tianyun went missing. The hunting group under Qin Ye’s lead had decided to return first as the snowstorm grew increasingly heavy.
When they returned to the town, everyone saw a beautiful figure standing at the entrance, looking at them with expectation. This person was naturally Lin Qianxue.
Qin Ye’s heart tensed up when he saw this. The thing he feared the most in this life was a beautiful woman’s tear. He didn’t know what to tell her about her son’s incident. He blamed himself for being careless, leaving Lin Tianyun alone.
Lin Qianxue’s face gradually turned anxious. She quickly moved forward and scanned the crowd, trying to find Lin Tianyun’s figure.𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍．𝒆𝒕
Lin Musong curled his lips when he saw this scene. He pretended to put on a sad expression as he stepped forward. “Looking for your son? I’m sorry to tell you this. He’s already dead.”
As if a thunderbolt struck her mind, Lin Qianxue’s body froze on the spot. She looked at Lin Musong with eyes wide open in disbelief. “You…”
Qin Ye could see Lin Musong’s intention at a glance. He immediately came forward to prevent Lin Musong from saying anything further.
“Please calm down, Miss Lin. Little Brother Tianyun is not dead yet. He was missing during the night raid two days ago. I believe he must hide somewhere in the mountain. We will organize people to look for him tomorrow.” Qin Ye said sincerely. At the same time, he used this chance to appreciate Lin Qianxue’s peerless appearance. Undoubtedly, this woman was the most beautiful person he had ever seen since his birth.
On the side, Xu Yan was jealous when she saw this scene. However, in order to make a good impression on Qin Ye. She managed to hold back and calmly said. “That’s right. He should be alive somewhere.”
“Alive? Heh, don’t make me laugh, Xu Yan. You should be aware that it’s impossible for a person with little to no strength like him to survive under that harsh condition. Not to mention he fought with the Winter Wolf when he went missing. I’m afraid he has become those wolves’ food by now.” Lin Musong snorted coldly.
“No…That’s not true….” It was as if her world shattered. Tears immediately flowed out of Lin Qianxue’s eyes as she refused to believe it.
Qin Ye was uncomfortable to see this. He took a deep breath and said concernedly. “Please go back first, Miss Lin. I will take my people to look at him as soon as possible.”
“No!” Lin Qianxue suddenly turned fierce. Her face became icy, causing everyone at the scene to startle in shock.
A deep blue light flashed through Lin Qianxue’s eyes, and her body gradually floated into the air before shooting toward the Eternal Cold Mountain Range.
“That… She is a Heaven Profound Realm expert!” The middle-aged man who took care of Lin Tianyun uttered in disbelief. One had to know that the strongest person in Greenwood Town was only at the peak of the Spirit Profound Realm. How come such an expert becomes someone else’s servant?
Qin Ye’s eyes widened as he stared at Lin Qianxue’s departure back. Fortunately, he didn’t offend her. Otherwise, he didn’t know how he died. Thinking of this, he hurriedly turned to his people. “Everyone, go back and take a rest first. We will set off again tonight!”
Since their young master said this, everyone had no objection and hurriedly returned to the Qin family manor.
Meanwhile, Lin Musong stared at the air with his eyes almost popped out of the sockets. He couldn’t believe the usually weak woman, Lin Qianxue, was actually a terrifying expert.
A chill ran down his spine when he recalled everything he did on her and her son… She would definitely kill him, right?
