Chapter 950 A Youngster Who Took a Wrong Step in Life?Chapter 950 A Youngster Who Took a Wrong Step in Life?
The murky river in front of the ship heaved, producing giant snow-like waves.
Shun Baixuan’s clothes and long hair fluttered around him as he proudly stood in the sky. An arrogant smile rose from the corners of his lips as he nonchalantly said, "Go, call out Demon God Lin. I will duel him!"
On the ship, Kou Xing and the others were stunned.
They were surprised that an extremely arrogant-looking youngster would pop out shortly after they defeated the Sacred Fire Sect group.
However, unlike before, they now clearly understood the identity of ‘Young Master Lin Xia’. He wasn’t a Geomancer, but the famous Demon God Lin of the West Infinity World!
As native practitioners of the West Infinity World, they were all too aware of how famous Demon God Lin was. He was an absolute powerhouse whose mere mention would make many experts’ expressions change.
Moreover, they had just witnessed Lin Xun slaughter Sacred Fire Sect experts. Due to these various reasons, their expression turned strange when they saw Shun Baixuan appear and boldly challenge Lin Xun.
Is he be brain-damaged?
That can’t be. He looks like a normal person so why does he seem so foolish and reckless?
Due to these thoughts, they could not help but display pitying expressions as if they were looking at a brain-damaged idiot.
Shun Baixuan immediately noticed the weird atmosphere and was taken aback. What’s with those gazes? How detestable!
He loudly scolded, "What are you guys still standing around for? Hurry up and go! You’d better be prepared for trouble if you anger this young master!"
However, Kou Xing and the others were not only unafraid but instead looked at him with even more pity. This fool clearly knew that Young Master Lin Xun was present but still talked so big. He seemed to be tired of living.
Green Face frowned and asked, "Could he be here to gain fame?" After all, even being defeated by Young Master Lin Xun is something you can brag about."
"That seems to be the case. Such people are the worst. In order to become famous, they can cast aside their integrity. The ethos of the cultivation world is ruined by such people." Scarlet Silk did not hide his contempt.
"The world is getting worse and the people of today lack morals. This guy must be blinded by fame," Kou Xing earnestly evaluated with a serious face.
Shun Baixuan’s eyes widened, almost unable to believe his ears. These people were...criticizing him?
He nearly vomited blood from anger. He was regarded as the ‘Demon King of Chaos’ that everyone was afraid of and no one dared to disrespect.
However, he was now being viewed as a clown without integrity who blindly sought fame!
Were these people tired of living?
Shun Baixuan’s expression immediately darkened!
In the distance, Luo Jia could not help but display an odd expression as she struggled not to laugh. She never imagined that Shen Baixuan would be criticized so badly before he could even meet Lin Xun.
He’s probably going crazy, right?
Luo Jia knew that although Shun Baixuan was domineering and arrogant, he felt it was beneath him to make things difficult for people he didn’t acknowledge. Hence, she wasn’t worried that he would hurt them.
Shun Baixuan shouted, "Shut up!" A terrifying and intimidating aura surged from him as wisps of bright golden light emerged. It bathed him in a golden glow, making him resemble a godly being.
Kou Xing and the others stiffened. However, they weren’t scared but surprised. This fool seemed to have some capability which was probably why he had dared to come to the Boundary River to challenge Young Master Lin.
"Friend, I advise you to hurry up and leave. There are many ways to gain fame in this world, and there’s no need to resort to a method that will only make a fool of yourself."
Kou Xing tried to give some advice.
"You...you’re saying I’m making a fool of myself?" Shun Baixuan pointed at himself in disbelief. Golden light flared from him as he resisted the urge to kill them.
"Although it might be hard to swallow, good medicine is often bitter. I’m saying this for your sake. Listen to my advice, you’re still young so don’t abandon the minimum integrity of cultivators in order to become famous. Although it might make you famous, you’ll have to face criticism from others."
Kou Xing believed that Shun Baixuan was angry because he was embarrassed that they had seen through his intentions.
Kou Xing could not help but inwardly sigh. Young people nowadays are becoming more and more boastful and easily irritable.
"Friend, hurry up and leave. The consequences will be dire if Young Master Lin is alerted."
"You're still young, so don't do something so foolish. A single mistake could ruin you forever. You mustn't be stubborn and make the wrong choice."
Green Face and Scarlet Silk also spoke out in sincerity.
Wrong choice...wrong choice…
Shun Baixuan was flabbergasted. His face turned green with anger, and his hands and legs trembled uncontrollably in rage as a terrifying killing intent spread from him.
Their words made him feel a strong murderous impulse. It was infuriating. How could they treat him as a youngster who was about to make a mistake? If word of this spread, everyone would make fun of him!
Luo Jia could no longer sit by and watch the entertainment. Her pupils shrank, realizing that Shun Baixuan was about to lose control. Once he went crazy, someone would certainly be hurt!
Miss Le, who had been watching like a bystander, also inwardly shivered as she became wary and alert.
This was the scene that greeted Lin Xun when he walked out of his room.
He was slightly taken aback at the sight of Luo Jia before he looked toward Shun Baixuan. Lin Xun could not help but feel amused at the latter’s stormy expression which looked as if he was on the verge of vomiting blood.
Kou Xing and the others had evidently tried to give ‘good advice’ because they believed Shun Baixuan wasn’t a match for Lin Xun.
None of them could have anticipated that they would trigger him instead.
The aura displayed by Shun Baixuan honestly amazed Lin Xun, who felt that it was comparable to the likes of Yu Lingkong.
He was undoubtedly also a supreme heaven pride. From his posture, it was clear that he was an extremely arrogant and conceited individual.
Swish!
Shun Baixuan's eyes flashed fiercely as they instantly locked onto Lin Xun. His gaze was as intimidating as a sharp blade as he gnashed his teeth in anger and said, "Are you Demon God Lin? Your appearance is timely. A little later and your companions would have suffered!"
Lin Xun frowned. "You're here to cause trouble?"
He glanced at Luo Jia as he spoke. The Sword Saint successor from the Earth Emperor World's Milou Palace had left an extremely deep impression on him.
However, he was uncertain why she had also appeared here.
"Luo Jia greets the Young Master." In the distance, Luo Jia transmitted. There was a hint of helplessness in her voice as she began explaining everything to Lin Xun.
That was how Lin Xun found out that Shun Baixuan was eyeing his treasures and wanted to snatch them away.
"Young Master, he isn’t bad by nature. Please excuse him if he has offended you." Luo Jia sighed softly.
She could not help but feel somewhat depressed that she had to explain such things to Lin Xun.
Lin Xun merely smiled in response. Since the other party was eyeing his treasures and came to snatch them, he would not show mercy if they were to fight!
"Demon God Lin, my aim is very simple. I heard that you’re pretty strong and am itching to spar with you. If I win, let me play with your Saint treasure for a while. If I lose, I’ll let you do whatever you want. How does that sound?"
Shun Baixuan was clearly feeling impatient and immediately stated his purpose. He was already struggling to control his anger.
Being belittled, scolded, and mistaken in such a manner was something he would not tolerate.
He needed catharsis and Lin Xun was undoubtedly an excellent outlet.
Lin Xun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What if I refuse?"
What a crazy and domineering guy. To think he could act so arrogantly and justified despite being the one to come here and challenge Lin Xun.
"You have to agree even if you don’t want to. The choice isn’t yours!" Shun Baixuan was clearly displeased. "Even if you’re scared, you still have to fight!"
Kou Xing and the others were shocked. This brain-damaged fool was so stubborn. It was honestly remarkable.
Shun Baixuan would be furious if he knew their thoughts. He had never experienced such slander since he started cultivating.
Miss Le suddenly said, "When did the descendants of the Shun Clan become so overbearing?" There was a hint of iciness in her voice.
Shen Baixuan bellowed, "Don't try to use my background against me. As far as I'm concerned, my clan’s reputation is a burden, and I don't need it!" If his ancestors heard this, they would probably break open their coffin lids in anger.
Even Miss Le was stunned for a while. In her memory, this was definitely not how experts from the Shun Clan behaved. It would be praise to call him a bastard.
Luo Jia smiled bitterly because she knew Shun Baixuan was telling the truth. He was indeed a lawless and fearless Demon King of Chaos. Even his clan members didn’t know what to do with him and had to clean up after his messes countless times over the years.
"Lin Xun, are you going to fight or not? Aren't you known as a demon god? Bring out the backbone of a demon god and come fight!" Shun Baixuan’s cold eyes flashed fiercely, giving off an oppressive pressure.
"If you want to fight, at least wait until Lin Xun recovers. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a real win even if you beat him." Miss Le seemed to have partially discerned his character.
Shun Baixuan was taken aback. A long time passed before he angrily said, "Fine, I'll wait. Is one incense stick enough?"
These words substantially improved the crowd's impression of him. Although he was arrogant, his character was upright and he didn’t wish to take advantage of others.
To everyone's surprise, a chilling voice suddenly rang out.
"No need to go to all that trouble. I'll play with you." Xia Zhi appeared, dressed in a large black cloak. An aura of elegant yet quiet darkness rippled from her.
Lin Xun inwardly cursed. Xia Zhi was already displeased that she had been interrupted earlier and was now unhappy with Shun Baixuan to the extent that she had voluntarily stepped forward.
Meanwhile, Luo Jia’s pupils shrank as her heart shook violently. It's her!
She immediately recalled the bloody scene that occurred on the dao altar during the Dao Lantern Festival. A girl had descended like a god of darkness, who could kill in a single strike. She slaughtered Mu Jianting, Li Qinghuan, and the other supreme heaven prides as if they were mere chickens, overwhelming Luo Jia with fear.
Although she looked like a delicate girl, she was definitely far more dangerous and terrifying than Demon God Lin!
