The Prodigies War

Chapter 1339 Who?

Caicai was momentarily taken aback before she cautiously replied, "Yes, Young Master."

Although Caicai's cultivation hadn't progressed much over the past few years, she had gained plenty of experience.

After all, it took more than luck to survive in the cutthroat Supreme Realm.

She immediately identified that the black-clothed youth was a King expert, and his cultivation was at least at the fifth longevity stage!

In the present Burning Immortal World, fifth longevity stage experts were considered top-tier elites that no one dared to mess with.

"How much do you have?"

The black-clothed youth looked at Caicai with interest.

Caicai did some calculations and earnestly answered, "About a hundred pounds."

"Here are ten king-grade herbs. I believe it's enough to buy all of your Fire Cloud Dew."

The black-clothed youth casually took out a storage bag and passed it to Caicai.

He stared at the young lady before him. What a beautiful and innocent face that grows more likable the more one looks at it.

Moreover, she seemed to give off a refreshing and pure aura. It was a feast for the eyes.

The black-clothed youth was confident that he had seen many stunning women over the years, but all of them now appeared a little tacky when compared to the pure young lady in front of him.

"Thank you, Young Master."

Caicai nodded as she propped up her earthen jar and offered it to him.

The black-clothed youth didn’t even glance at the jar as he received it. Instead, he continued to stare at the young girl as he said, "I lack a personal maid. If you’re willing, you may follow me in the future."

There was an aloof arrogance in his tone as if it would be a great honor to follow him.

Caicai was taken aback. She shook her head and said, "I’ll have to turn you down, but thank you for your kindness."

It was only then that she realized the other party wasn't looking to purchase Fire Cloud Dew but was instead recruiting her as a maidservant.

The black-clothed youth was stunned. With his current status and cultivation, tons of women would willingly throw themselves at him with a mere gesture.

However, he had been rejected!

Moreover, the other party was merely a girl at the Cyclic Derivation stage.

The black-clothed youth had a large man at his side. Upon hearing Caicai’s response, his face was immediately filled with displeasure and hostility as he coldly glared at the foolish young lady.

The black-clothed youth waved his hand, signaling to his attendant not to scare the little beauty before he smiled and said, "How about this, Miss, I’ll give you some time to consider. I do not wish to make things difficult for you, but since you’ve already received ten king-grade herbs from me, it won’t be good to reject me, right?"

His heart was filled with disdain. A hundred pounds of Fire Cloud Dew was at most worth eight king-grade herbs. He was certain that the young lady would understand what he meant.

"Young Master, I’ll return them to you. I won’t sell the Fire Cloud Dew."

With a deep breath, Caicai displayed a serious expression as she returned the storage bag to the black-clothed youth.

The black-clothed youth was stunned as his brows furrowed slightly.

The girl’s response made him somewhat unhappy. Who did she think she was to repeatedly reject him? contemporary romance

The burly attendant could no longer hold back and icily said, "Hmph, Young Miss, you’re being a little tactless. You do not have any reason to refuse after receiving something from my Young Master!"

It was a great blessing for a girl who hadn't even stepped into the King stage to be fancied by his Young Master and yet she was acting like a fool!

Caicai's pretty face paled as she nervously bit her cherry-colored lips.

She was a descendant of the Cloud Weaver Clan, which was characterized by their peaceful and kind natures and were often regarded as timid.

Caicai clenched her teeth and said, "I'm friends with Young Master Lin. He will be very angry if he finds out that you guys are treating me like this."

After hearing such a weak-sounding response, the black-clothed youth and his attendant couldn't help but chuckle. The young lady clearly didn’t know how to threaten anyone and appeared very naive.

The black-clothed youth playfully asked, "Tell me then, where is this Young Master Lin from? Why haven't I heard of him in the Burning Immortal World?"

Caicai earnestly answered, "Young Master Lin is Lin Xun."

Lin Xun!

The name immediately caused the black-clothed youth’s and his attendant’s hearts to shudder as their expressions changed slightly.

Was there anyone who didn’t know Demon God Lin?

In his first year in the Burning Immortal World, he killed so many people in Burning Immortal City that rivers of blood filled its streets.

He had also uprooted and demolished the territories of powerful factions such as the Golden Crow Lineage, Thousand Beast Spirit Mountain, Mysterious Metropolis Sect, and Sea Soul Clan. It was an event that shook and horrified the entire Burning Immortal World.

Later on, Demon God Lin entered the Upper Ninth Realm with the cultivation of the Supreme King stage!

It was naturally impossible for the black-clothed youth and his attendant to be unaware of Lin Xun's terror.

Although there had been no news of Lin Xun for the past nine years in the Burning Immortal World, his name and feats were still circulating in the Burning Immortal World to this day.

Over the years, many people speculated that Demon God Lin had encountered disaster after reaching the Upper Nine Realms. After all, he had too many enemies, and it was impossible for him to match the experts from the powerful ancient factions.

However, there were also those who thought otherwise.

Regardless of what the people thought, Lin Xun was indeed a celebrity in the Immortal Burning World.

"What a joke. I acknowledge that Lin Xun is a formidable individual, but how can such a person be friends with a little girl like you?"

The burly attendant displayed a disdainful expression, thinking that Caicai was trying to use a childish trick to scare them off.

By this juncture, the black-clothed youth also returned to his senses. With a slightly cold expression, he said, ''Let’s put aside all that for the moment. Nine years have already passed since Lin Xun left, and he probably lost his life long ago in the Upper Nine Realms. Miss, do you think that using this to threaten me will make me afraid of using force against you?"

There was a touch of grimness in his voice.

Caicai's hands and feet turned cold as a chill spread throughout her. She never imagined she would encounter such a disaster right before she was about to leave the Supreme Realm.

The black-clothed youth's and his attendant’s attitude made her feel a sense of helplessness and despair. Given her cultivation, how could she possibly escape unscathed?

Rumble!

At this moment, a strange rumbling suddenly spread in the sky above Burning Immortal City, and a spatial tunnel appeared soon after.

For a time, the cultivators inside and outside Burning Immortal City stopped what they were doing and gazed at the tunnel in unison.

Someone yelled in excitement, "The experts who traveled to the Upper Ninth Realms are returning!"

After nine years, the experts who were qualified to reach the Supreme King stage were returning to the Burning Immortal World. How much stronger had they grown over these past nine years? How many of them had died in the Upper Nine Realms and would never be able to return?

Everyone stared at the tunnel in nervous anticipation.

The black-clothed youth and his attendant were also startled by this scene.

The black-clothed youth noticed that Caicai had revealed a hopeful expression, her crystal-like eyes glowing brightly. "Miss, you can’t possibly believe that there's still hope for Lin Xun to return, right?"

It rather upset him.

Caicai pursed her lips in silence.

Rumble!

A radiant figure finally walked out from the spatial tunnel. It was a silver-robed man with a horn on his head. Dao light flowed around him as if he were a god descending upon the mortal coil.

As soon as he appeared, a powerful pressure emanated from him and spread across the sky, causing many experts’ expressions to turn horrified as they struggled to breathe.

Even the black-clothed youth’s expression abruptly changed.

Strong!

Was this the power of the Supreme King stage?

The black-clothed youth subconsciously clenched his fists. Although his cultivation was at the fifth longevity stage, he hadn’t ascended to the Supreme stage.

It was a fact that haunted and frustrated him, which he often resented and agonized over.

Someone uttered in a trembling voice, "It's the ancient-era talent of the Silver Rhinoceros Clan. I never imagined that he would possess such terrifying strength..."

To the experts of the Burning Immortal World, the Supreme King stage was akin to a godly existence that lived in a completely different world from them!

To everyone’s surprise, the Silver Rhinoceros Clan expert didn’t leave after emerging and instead stood to one side.

Omm!

The tunnel shone brightly as another figure stepped out. It was a woman whose graceful and slender figure was bathed in a faint golden mist.

Her presence was also alarmingly terrifying!

"My god... Isn't that the saintess of the Golden Tapir Clan? Her aura is far too frightening..."

Another flurry of agitation swept across the area.

Meanwhile, the black-clothed youth's expression became increasingly gloomy as he felt deep regret and agony. He had been a single step from entering the Upper Nine Realms, but ultimately lost the chance to become a Supreme King expert.

It was a regret that would haunt him forever.

Supreme King experts emerged from the tunnel one after another. All of them were powerful experts possessing supreme elegance.

For a time, Burning Immortal City and its surrounding areas were filled with cries of astonishment that rose and fell like waves.

The only peculiar thing was that every Supreme King expert would stand to the side after emerging as if they were waiting for someone.

This made the crowd grow increasingly expectant. Which Supreme King expert could make so many Supreme King experts wait here like this?

"Your Young Master Lin still hasn’t appeared after so long. Do you still believe there’s a chance he survived?"

The black-clothed youth glanced at Caicai.

Caicai’s expression dimmed, but she remained steadfast. "Young Master Lin is a good person. A good person will definitely survive and return."

A good person?

The black-clothed youth snorted. Since when had Demon God Lin ever been a good person? It was the most ridiculous thing he had ever heard!

All of a sudden, the burly attendant excitedly exclaimed, "Young Master, it's the Young Lord!"

The black-clothed youth immediately looked up and saw a handsome figure with a head of silver hair and a red dot between his brows walk out from the spatial tunnel. It was the Young Lord!

"The Young Lord also reached the Supreme stage and has returned alive!"

The black-clothed youth also become excited and happy.

However, he and his attendant were soon stunned because the Young Lord, who was as almighty as a god in their hearts, also stood to the side like the other Supreme King experts.

"This..."

The master attendant duo looked at each other.

Even the Young Lord needed to wait in such a humble manner?

Who was this person whom so many Supreme King experts were waiting for?
