Chapter 958: Chapter 968: Similar to the Secret Realm (Part 1)
After being released from the chokehold, Wells, even though he forced himself to calm down, still had lingering fear on his face.
He was the most competitive heir of the Butte Clan, and never before had he experienced such a feeling.
In other words, it was always him giving others fear, death, and such emotions.
Now, after feeling that moment as if someone was going to snap his neck, he really never wanted to experience it again.
At his position, he was afraid of death!
Actually, it can be said that more than ninety-nine percent of people are afraid of death.
Those who aren’t are just a tiny minority.
"Don’t think that just because we have a special relationship that I’d spare him. You should know that he was just trying to kill you!" Lin Xi looked at Avril and said, "And he was so boastful. Hmm, I might as well just kill him!"
As soon as Wells heard this and saw Lin Xi’s movement to reach out, he quickly stood up and backed away in fright.
Due to haste and panic, he stumbled and was about to fall backward.
He really had no strength, and if he fell like this, he’d definitely be bleeding from his head.
"Hmm?"
He was caught by William.
After all, William was also from the Butte Clan and couldn’t watch him be so embarrassed.
Avril pouted, "You better not talk nonsense, who has a special relationship with you!"
"If there’s anyone special, it’s with Zhou Yan, with Shangguan Nishang, with Luo Susu, with Dili Bare..." These were her thoughts, but she didn’t say it out loud.
However, from her eyes, Lin Xi could tell what she meant.
This lace... does she not know the might of men?
"If you kill him, there’s no benefit at all, but if you don’t, you’ll gain many unexpected benefits, like the Holy Land I just mentioned!" Avril continued speaking to Lin Xi.
But Lin Xi seemed not to hear about the Holy Land and asked, "Does the benefits include you?"
"I think you are the greatest benefit!"
"If you offered yourself to me, I’d spare him without a word!"
Avril, "..."
Although Lin Xi had good looks and a nice figure and his skills were so strong, this playboy radish, how could she like him???
Besides, she was lace~~~ and didn’t like men.
She thought this in her heart, yet she didn’t realize a problem.
Which was, before she met Lin Xi, she almost felt repulsed by all men and thought them disgusting, except for William, who protected her, whom she felt a slight fondness for.
But for Lin Xi, what she didn’t realize was that she wasn’t repulsed by him like other men.
"Don’t dream on!"
"You’re so fickle, I’d never give myself to you!!"
Lin Xi smiled, "Really?"
"Really!" Avril nodded instinctively.
"Are you sure?"
"You bastard, can’t I even be sure of myself?"
"Sometimes, people can’t help but fall in love with someone, without realizing it, and I think you have that potential!"
"I think you have delusions, even if other women have such possibilities, it’s impossible for me to love you!"
"Heh!" Lin Xi smiled again.
Avril, "..."
"Just wait and see!" Lin Xi said.
"Fine, I’ll wait and see!" Avril said dismissively.
Dili Bare, unnoticed by everyone, bit her teeth and gave Lin Xi a very displeased glare, as if to say, are you flirting with another woman in front of your wife?
If I had the power, you’d be kneeling on durian tonight!!!
Xie Ziqi chuckled bitterly, just moments ago they were fighting, and now the atmosphere had suddenly changed.
Even William found it a bit baffling!
Is this really the time and place for romance?
The terrified Wells also breathed a sigh of relief, at the same time giving Avril, his half-sister, a complex look.
He didn’t expect she’d save his life.
To know, his initial thought was to take out all five of them.
And pin Avril’s death on these three yellow-skinned people.
He even dismissed his previous thoughts about Dili Bare.
For his heir position, none of these people could stay.
"Alright, stop talking about impossible things, let me tell you about the Holy Land!" Avril said towards Lin Xi.
As soon as she said this, Dili Bare and Xie Ziqi became greatly interested, could it be some fun place?
But by her demeanor, it didn’t seem like a tourist attraction.
William and Wells’ eyes flashed with a hint of eagerness, obviously, they also knew about the Holy Land.
Lin Xi, however, showed a look of disinterest on his face.
These so-called Holy Lands were probably like Secret Realms.
But for families like theirs, Secret Realms held limitless allure, though for him, they really weren’t of much use.
After all, he didn’t need Spirit Stones, Spiritual Objects, nor Cultivation Techniques or anything.
However, he couldn’t just say this, as if the word got out, it would become very strange, and it might even stir up trouble.
"Holy Lands are similar to your Eastern Secret Realms, the Spiritual Qi within far surpasses that outside."
"Of course, in such places, the East seals them with Arrays, while we in the West construct them with Magic."
"Long ago, they were created by some organizations or sects, clans, or something, built by a group of powerful beings together."
"The reason being they felt the depletion of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, thus using Magic and Arrays to select a concealed and spiritually rich place, separating it from the large world, to slow down the rate of Spiritual Qi depletion inside."
"Of course, they all secluded themselves there."
Dili Bare and Xie Ziqi, "..."
"Is this a story?" they thought inwardly.
Lin Xi seriously asked, "So, does that mean there are people inside?"
But if there were people inside, in the Secret Realm at Chuzhou City, going inside, except for some formidable beasts, they saw no sign of a person.
If it weren’t for martial arts manuals and broken palaces, they would surely believe that the Secret Realm had been empty from the start.
Avril knew what Lin Xi meant, she explained, "From what I’ve learned from my family’s ancestors’ records, most Holy Lands nowadays are empty, only a very few still have people!"
"As for empty Holy Lands, it’s not that there were never people; otherwise, where would they have come from."
"Rather, for unknown reasons, everyone inside disappeared."
"Just like the last time we were in that Secret Realm in Chuzhou City."
"There had to be people there before, but for unknown reasons, they all disappeared."
At this point, she paused, pondering, "Maybe those rare inhabited Holy Lands know where those people have gone!"
