The Sovereign’s Ascension

lt during the fight with the Bloodwolf King was real.

“Brother Lin, you’ve hidden yourself well.
If we did not run into Mo Luo, I’m afraid that we still wouldn’t know your true strength.
It has far exceeded our expectations and I apologize if we were rude earlier.” Zuo Yun’s eyes blazed with a trace of fighting spirit.
He now considered Lin Yun as a rival and no longer looked down on him.

The other Primal Origin Sect disciples were deeply stirred.
They very much agreed with Zuo Yun’s words and they also had a trace of fear in their eyes when they looked at Lin Yun.

“I’m flattered,” Lin Yun replied.

“No,” said Zuo Yun, “I don’t praise people easily.
I’m greatly shocked by your strength.
Both killing the two wandering cultivators and defending us against Mo Luo have deeply surprised me.

Was it that exaggerated? He only managed to kill the middle-aged man by surprise because he combined the Seven Profound Steps and his punch empowered by sword intent.
As for the other middle-aged man in black, it was all thanks to the Dragon Blooded Horse’s Thunder Charge that Lin Yun was able to finish him off.

As for Mo Luo, the former didn’t take him seriously when they fought.
After all, Lin Yun’s origin energy was utterly exhausted after using the Flicking Divine Sword.
Honestly, it was all thanks to Xin Jue’s timely arrival that they were fine.

Otherwise, he would have had to rely on the Dragon Blooded Horse to escape.
Lin Yun had an exact gauge of his strength, meaning that he would never underestimate or overestimate himself.

“I’ll be taking my leave now if there’s nothing else,” Lin Yun replied with a smile and stood up.

“Wait,” Zuo Yun suddenly called out.

“What’s the matter?” asked Lin Yun.

“It’s fate that we met and we’ll probably meet again half a year from now.
How do you feel about sparring for a little?” Zuo Yun’s eyes blazed with fighting spirit since he now considered Lin Yun a worthy opponent.

There might be a difference of two stages in their cultivation, but Lin Yun’s origin energy density wasn’t any weaker than his own.

Lin Yun got on the horse and smiled, “There’s no rush.
You’ve just undergone a series of injuries, so I don’t wish to take advantage of you.
We’ll fight again when we meet in the future.” Lin Yun patted the Dragon Blooded Horse on the back, causing it to dash into the forest.

“What an arrogant fellow.” Zhang Ping and the others commented out of indignance that Lin Yun did not give Zuo Yun the opportunity to spar.
If others faced such a straightforward rejection, they would definitely not be able to take it well.

“He has the capital to be arrogant.
We all underestimated him.
Let’s find out more about him when we get back.
He’s definitely not a nameless person in the Sword Firmament Pavilion,” smiled Zuo Yun.

Lin Yun did not stop after leaving.
Zuo Yun wanted to fight him because the latter couldn’t see through him, which meant that Zuo Yun wanted to find out how strong Lin Yun was.
But Lin Yun had already seen through Zuo Yun completely.

The two should be evenly matched if they fought and none of them would have an advantage in the fight.
Furthermore, Zuo Yun might exhaust him purely by relying on his physique and cultivation.
However, Lin Yun could also defeat Zuo Yun instantly with his strongest attack.

There were too many possibilities, so Lin Yun did not find any meaning in a fight.
When night descended, Lin Yun jumped down from the Dragon Blooded Horse.
With a smile on his face, he took out the two interspatial pouches that he had taken from the wander cultivators.

Mo Luo’s subordinates were strong, so their wealth should bring him a pleasant surprise.
He didn’t spend too much time thinking about it and took everything out from the interspatial pouches.

There were many items in the pouches – martial techniques, pellets, spiritual jades, profound artifacts, and many other random things.
Lin Yun wasn’t surprised by how messy everything was since wandering cultivators harvested their wealth by robbing others.

So it was troublesome for Lin Yun to sort through everything.
But Lin Yun wasn’t complaining about this since he was broke.
In fact, the thousands of spiritual jades made him rejoice.

“These fellows must have killed many different sect disciples.” Lin Yun exclaimed inwardly.
It was easy to accumulate wealth by killing and taking other people’s pouches.
It was no wonder that they would take the risk of being hunted down by the sects.
Unfortunately for them, all their hard work belonged to him now.

“What’s this?” Lin Yun found a crimson fruit in the pile of miscellaneous items.
The crimson fruit released a glow as if it was burning.
Lin Yun could even vaguely sense a similarity it had with the Bloodwolf King.

His face turned grave when he saw it and wondered if it was obtained from the Bloodwolf Tribe.
If it really was from the Bloodwolf Tribe, should this be with Mo Luo? What’s the story behind this? Lin Yun’s heart began to throb when he thought about it.
