Chapter 11 Lin Feiyan, 3 Choices
"These should be cranes that only true disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect can raise, right? They must be at least at the seventh or eighth level of physical cultivation?"
The cranes cried out, soaring into the sky, causing the trees to tremble.
Xu Yan did not feel any mental pressure. He stared at the approaching man and crane and the thought flashed through his mind.
This crane is exceptionally magnificent, with a bright red crest and its wings spread wide, creating gusts of wind.
In particular, the crane's two claws are as sharp as steel hooks, which could probably easily tear apart tigers and leopards and pierce through metal.
If we are to make a move, we must kill this crane immediately.
Those who travel by crane must not have advanced to the realm of supernatural powers.
This is his chance!
Lin Feiyan stood on the crane, carrying a wooden coffin on her back, which seemed no different from carrying a ball of cotton.
She was dressed in a Taoist robe with water and fire, and had a slender figure, graceful curves, and a beautiful face, looking like a fairy.
But at this moment, her eyes were filled with an overwhelming sadness.
He rose through the ranks of outer disciples of the Feathered Ascension Sect, was promoted to inner disciple, and then advanced to the tenth level of the Divine Transformation Realm of Physical Body.
Having fought hundreds of battles, big and small, along the way, she immediately saw through the guardedness of the knife-wielding youth opposite her.
She gently stroked a blood-red jade pendant in her hand, gazed at Xu Yan with a look of longing, and asked in a hoarse voice:
"What's your name?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan frowned slightly.
The other party's question was somewhat unexpected.
In such a remote and rarely visited place, why did the other party, instead of asking why he killed Yang Song, Yang Ta, and others, care about his name after finding this place?
Xu Yan asked, "What is your relationship with the Yong'an Prince's Mansion?"
"It seems the massacre at that illegal mine was indeed your doing!"
Lin Feiyan concealed the sadness in her eyes, her tone enigmatic.
She was knowledgeable and had a keen eye; with just one glance, she knew that Xu Yan had not advanced to the Divine Power Realm.
However, Xu Yan was able to kill two great masters, Iron Spear Master and Yang Song, which must have relied on other trump cards, probably the magical weapon sword in his hand!
"I am not a member of the Yong'an Prince's Mansion. You need not be wary; we are not only not enemies, but in some ways, we even share a common enemy!"
"You still have a magic sword in your hand, don't you? It was this magic sword that led me to you!"
Lin Feiyan's expression softened as she recounted the whole story, expressing her gratitude to Xu Yan for avenging her brother.
Hearing the twists and turns of the story, Xu Yan sighed and recounted how he was drugged in a black market, sold to a black mine, and how he escaped and sought revenge.
He picked up a longsword wrapped in rags from the corner of the tree hollow and tossed it over casually:
"Since it's your brother's keepsake, it should be returned to its rightful owner!"
Xu Yan never expected that the owner of the half-dead young corpse he saw before leaving the mine had a different background.
The young man's name was Lin Feiyang, and he was Lin Feiyan's older brother, slightly older than her.
His experience was very similar to Lin Feiyang's; both were betrayed and sold into illegal mines as miners.
The difference is that he awakened a cheat code, allowing him to turn the tide against all odds.
Lin Feiyang, probably because of the magic sword treasure, made Yang Song want to kill him, and he had no intention of making him a mine slave.
Indeed, in the world of martial arts, while powerful weapons are formidable, the human heart is the most unfathomable thing.
Just like Xu Yan, after hearing about Lin Feiyang's story, although he sighed repeatedly, he was not truly at ease.
If the opponent makes the slightest move, his magical flying sword will shoot out like lightning.
He's no longer a novice just starting out in the world!
The mid-grade magic weapon flying sword that Lin Feiyan mentioned was something she had obtained from a ruin during her training trip and gave to her brother for self-defense.
Not long ago, the jade pendant in her hand suddenly changed, letting her know that something had happened to her brother.
He rushed back to his hometown in the former northern province and searched for several days, but still found no news of his brother's disappearance.
Today, after hearing from other fellow disciples that the illegitimate son of the Prince of Yong'an had his entire family wiped out at a mine owned by the Prince's mansion, she rushed to the scene to investigate.
there.
She saw her brother's mutilated body, which had been dead for several days and had been disposed of, hanging in the mine shaft.
At that moment, her eyes turned red, and she vowed revenge!
The jade pendant in her hand was a treasure she obtained along with the magic sword. When the two are close together, there is a subtle connection between them.
She traveled north to escort her brother's body back to his hometown. While passing through the northern foothills of the Black Rock Mountains, she noticed the unusual jade pendant and came looking for him.
From Xu Yan's hiding place and a few simple conversations, she confirmed that Xu Yan was not the murderer of her brother, but rather that Xu Yan had avenged her brother.
This is also why she didn't make a move when she saw Xu Yan.
Of course, her rationality also saved her life!
Just then, the crane beneath her feet let out a cry, and Lin Feiyan said:
"Let's go downstairs and talk. I, Lin Feiyan, am clear about my debts and grudges. You've avenged my brother, so I'll give you a chance!"
As she spoke, carrying the coffin on her back, she lightly jumped and landed steadily from more than ten meters in the air without making a sound, demonstrating her amazing martial arts skills.
Xu Yan kept his Swift Wind Demon Blade in hand and, using the wooden stakes he had set up earlier, leaped down the tree hole like a monkey.
Seeing that Xu Yan was still carrying the precious sword, Lin Feiyan didn't say anything, but secretly nodded in approval of Xu Yan's caution.
If my elder brother had been so cautious, or had had the chance to escape from a desperate situation, he wouldn't have lost his life at the hands of such a villain!
However, the astonishingly long sword in Xu Yan's hand surprised her.
"I am an inner disciple of the Feather Transformation Sect, with a cultivation level of the tenth level of the Divine Transformation Realm. You killed my brother's enemy and returned his belongings. I will give you three choices; you may choose one as your reward!"
"First, I will teach you the three major martial arts of the outer sect of the Feathered Ascension Sect."
"Secondly, I will introduce you to the Marquis of Yingwu's household to secure a good social standing for you."
"Thirdly, I will definitely advance to the Divine Power Realm in the future, become a true disciple, and hold the power of life and death. If you are willing, you can follow me and serve me."
"If you are fortunate enough, you may have the opportunity to advance to the realm of supernatural powers and look forward to immortality in the future."
Lin Feiyan looked at Xu Yan and slowly spoke.
From the first glance, she could tell that Xu Yan was not from a noble or aristocratic family.
As Xu Yan jumped down from the tree hole, she could tell his cultivation level in the blink of an eye.
Fourfold Realm of Strength and Softness!
Xu Yan, who came from a common background and was not very old, possessed such cultivation, which aroused her interest in his talent.
She said so much about the third option; anyone paying attention could tell that she wanted to recruit Xu Yan.
Or rather, it's giving Xu Yan a real chance to rise to prominence.
"I choose the first one!"
Xu Yan made his choice without much thought.
Lin Feiyan paused, looking puzzled, and then asked:
Why?
"The immortal sects are lofty and far removed from me, so I will refrain from getting involved for the time being. I have no desire for power, and the Marquis's mansion is not suitable for me."
"I am satisfied with obtaining the martial arts techniques. Of course, if you would allow me to pass on these three martial arts to my cousin as a way of repaying my aunt's family for their kindness in raising me, then I would be very grateful!"
Xu Yan said with a calm expression.
Marquis Yingwu was a marquis from the former capital of Bei Province, Yuan'an City, who was renowned for his military exploits.
Xu Yan was taken to live in Yuan'an City by his aunt when he was young. Although nobles and commoners rarely had any contact, he had heard of this Marquis.
His surname is indeed Lin.
It seems that both Lin Feiyan and Lin Feiyang came from the Marquis of Yingwu's family.
However, if Lin Feiyang is the heir or young master of the Marquis's mansion, why is he not protected by guards when he travels?
In this world, the powerful and wealthy wield immense power, which is of course built upon their control of vast resources and military might.
Human traffickers are extremely shrewd; unless they're completely out of their minds, they won't mess with powerful and wealthy families.
It seems there's more to this than meets the eye.
Since Lin Feiyan didn't bring it up, he naturally wouldn't ask any further questions.
