The Supreme Dragon Emperor

Wu Gui scared to death

Seeing Lin Xiao seemingly safe and sound, Wu Gui let out a relieved sigh. But he still had wits about him said, "Brother Lin, you'll still have to tread carefully. You've no idea how malicious the people at the Mount Youming are. It could be highly likely Hu Su did furtive harm to you. Come and let me have a thorough check."

"No, thanks," Lin Xiao said, not knowing how to react properly.

Hu Su even failed to lay his fingers on the margin of Lin Xiao's clothes, let along to harm the latter on the sly, no matter how insidious he could be.

Wu Gui got confused, then a tinge of agony flashed across his countenance. Supposing Lin Xiao didn't give him any credence, Wu Gui gritted his teeth and said, "Well, then please wait for me for a second, I'm inviting my master to come over and check on you."

"Lin Xiao was the apple of the master's eye now. And the master just bid him attach attention to Lin Xiao the other day. However, just after a few days, I had him bullied by some thugs here in the sect," Wu Gu thought to himself.

As a matter of fact, Wu Gui dare not report issues like this to Li Taixuan. However, he still decided to do it at the risk of a punishment for the sake of Lin Xiao's health.

Lin Xiao was about to say something in response when a disciple's voice went off outside, "Good...Good afternoon, Esteemed Patriarch."

Lin Xiao heard that, so did Wu Gui. The latter went ghostly pale immediately. Somehow, he dashed into the internal room and hid there.

Being confused by Wu Gui's erratic behavior, Lin Xiao burst into a smile. It was kind of weird Wu Gui sneaked off upon his master's arrival like a mouse to a cat. Was Li Taixuan truly that scaring?

Shaking his head, Lin Xiao opened the door himself and got bewildered.

The visitor standing outside was scruffy and dusty — that was indeed Li Taixuan. However, one could hardly sense any trace of authority in him today.

Lin Taixuan didn't notice Lin Xiao's facial expression. He went in, shut the door, and started the conversation by saying, " Martial Uncle, I'm dreadfully sorry. I failed to find any cultivation methods for the Refining Divine Realm. And...and I even have to ask for a favor."

Not until then did Lin Xiao know that it was because of his cultivation that Li Taixuan had been stressed out like that. It felt so warm that a sense of overwhelming gratitude popped up in Lin Xiao. Hence Li Taixuan's image became even more respectable than before in Lin Xiao's eyes.

Li Taixuan dared not lift his head out of remorse, hence he was unable to pick up on the changes of Lin Xiao's attitude toward him. Of course, he was indeed way to flustered to get around to observing the surroundings, otherwise, he could have easily found Wu Gui hiding in the internal room.

Right then in the internal room, Wu Gui went slack-jawed on hearing the way his master referred to Lin Xiao.

"Martial Uncle? How come my master called someone as his martial uncle in such a high regard? Could it be said there is anyone else in this room?" Wu Gui wondered.

After Wu Gui came back to himself, he started looking around.

Right at that moment, he heard Lin Xiao speak, "What's up?"

"Those four Martial Law Gestation Elixirs. Today is the deadline for returning them. And Shan Chengfeng popped over to the Council Chamber for the pills. It is only you who are able to deal with it," Li Taixuan's said in a respectful tone.

On hearing that, Wu Gui felt dehydrated. It seemed that his master was truly talking to Lin Xiao.

Did it mean...

Wu Gui covered his chest with his hand, feeling as if his heart had broken into a sudden stoppage.

It was hardly the end. The conversation went on out there.

"Have you got the Hedao Fruits?" Lin Xiao asked.

"Martial Uncle, yes. we've successfully fulfilled our mission," Li Taixuan responded.

Wu Gui captured the above line super clearly — his very own master Li Taixuan referred to Lin Xiao as his martial uncle.

Analogous to a lightning carving through the nocturnal canopy, Wu Gui suddenly figured out the reason why his master attached so much importance to Lin Xiao. It was all because of his identity.

Wu Gui thought to himself in stupefaction, "Lin Xiao turned out to be my master's martial uncle. By extension, am I supposed to call him the Great Master?"

"Being only 16-year-old, Lin Xiao boasted such an awe-inspiring background. Once it was disseminated far and wide, let alone the Taixuan Sect, it would out of question cause a stir in Chijing Prefecture!" Thinking of this, Wu Gui turned ghostly pale all of a sudden.

Recalling himself audaciously opposing the Great Master in the past, Wu Gui got overwhelmed with a boom in his mind. Then a wave of quiver rushed across him.

After a long time, Wu Gui finally came back to himself. Stroking his head with his trembling hand, Wu Gui was delighted to find that his head was still in place. "How fortunate I am! I didn't get executed for opposing the Great Master," Wu Gui thought.

Wu Gui craved another listen to the conversation, but all quieted down outside. He leaned out to have a look only to find that the outer room was empty. The struck-dumb Wu Gui lost track of them.

He had a deep breath. But he almost stumbled when he was about to step forward. Concise as it was, the shocking news still scared Wu Gui to death.

Right then, Li Taixuan already walked Lin Xiao to the entrance of the Furnace Hall.
