Chapter 1658
Lin Yuyao is proud and arrogant. She was born with the bloodline of the Holy Qilin and cultivated the Holy Qilin Dharma Form when she reached the Myriad Manifestations Realm. How could such a talented girl be willing to rely on marriage to maintain the status of Qilin City?
This humiliation was unacceptable to her.
Even if she doesn't accept it, the facts are beyond her control.
So she had a backup plan in mind: even if she had to form a marriage alliance, she would never marry someone like a worthless piece of trash. She would choose a powerful and devoted partner who would protect Qilin City.
Lin Yuyao was filled with a myriad of thoughts and mixed feelings.
However, she soon followed her older brother and Chen Xuan as they swooped down to land.
Inside the Northern Underworld Immortal Palace, there were three long tables, which were filled with all kinds of spiritual fruits and fine wines.
Many of these were things that even the Lin Yuqiong siblings had never tasted before—these were all collected by Chen Xuan after he killed the Celestial Immortals and nearly a thousand Anti-Void Immortals wandering in the outer void.
These things were insignificant to Chen Xuan, but quite rare to Lin Yuqiong and Lin Yuyao.
Gu Ying served as a servant, and the atmosphere in the room was very harmonious. Everyone chatted and discussed various topics.
After Chen Xuan appeared, he only revealed the aura of the perfected Yuan Shen realm and did not show the strength of the newly broken-through Extreme Dao Reversal Void realm.
Even so, his strength has already been recognized by Lin Yuqiong and her brother.
It should be noted that the resources they receive in Qilin City are extremely abundant, while Chen Xuan's origins are merely minor stars, yet his rate of progress surpasses that of the two of them.
This made the brother and sister very satisfied with Chen Xuan, and they felt that the journey that took nearly twenty years was worthwhile.
After several rounds of drinks, everyone was slightly tipsy.
Lin Yuqiong began to intentionally or unintentionally talk about the subtle relationship between the current Holy Land and the Ten Holy Cities and Quasi-Holy Cities.
Chen Xuan was incredibly intelligent. He had already analyzed the situation when Lin Yuqiong changed the subject, but he just smiled knowingly and didn't say anything more.
However, when he heard that Qilin City was being secretly threatened by several surrounding holy cities, and had even been attacked and war had broken out, he became slightly concerned.
After all, there are several talented young people from his Xuanxiao World studying under a master in Qilin City. If Qilin City is destroyed, the first batch of young geniuses from Xuanxiao Star who have gone through the Star Trial will probably perish as well.
"Oh? Is there such a thing?"
Chen Xuan looked at Lin Yuqiong and asked, "Can you tell me more about the subtle relationship between the ten holy cities, and the open and covert struggles among the ten holy lands?"
As one of the ten holy cities and an established holy city, Qilin City possesses an extremely vast network of information channels, far exceeding what a novice cultivator like Chen Xuan could access.
Upon hearing Chen Xuan's question, Lin Yuqiong naturally answered without hesitation and immediately began to recount her story.
Chen Xuan quickly gained a general understanding of the open and covert struggles and mutual comparisons between the Holy Land, the Holy City, and the Quasi-Holy City.
Although the outer void is boundless and vast, top-tier resources are extremely limited. Without sufficient status and strength, one will be marginalized or even replaced.
After understanding the situation, Chen Xuan already had a plan in mind.
Qilin City and Gu God Star are both places he needs to plan for the future.
For disciples of the Zhengyi Sect on Gushen Star, if they have enough strength to seek a master in the outer realms in the future, Qilin City is undoubtedly the best place and springboard.
But if Qilin City were to be destroyed... Chen Xuan's heart stirred slightly, and a thought arose in his mind to help it overcome the difficulties.
But he wouldn't bring it up himself; he had to wait for the other party to offer sufficient compensation and conditions.
After all, adding flowers to brocade is far less practical than providing charcoal in the snow.
Seeing that Chen Xuan had not made a statement, Lin Yuqiong and her younger sister exchanged a glance.
Although Lin Yuyao was anxious about the situation in Qilin City, she was ultimately a proud and arrogant genius girl who couldn't bring herself to ask Chen Xuan for help; her pride wouldn't allow her to do so.
Subsequently, Lin Yuqiong continued to recount the power struggles and checks and balances among the ten holy cities, mentioning that the top three holy lands had numerous disciples, profound foundations, and even rumors that they possessed supreme imperial weapons to suppress their fortunes, making them impossible to shake.
