Chapter 728 -728: Everything that Should Come has Come

鈥淔ang Lin, I know your identity, the Qian Country鈥檚 Purple Mist Sect. Even if you escape today, your Qian Country and the Purple Mist Sect will still exist. My rage will descend on Qian Country, descend on the Purple Mist Sect. Are you willing to see the destruction of the Qian Country and the Purple Mist Sect?鈥 The Xuan Emperor coldly stated.

Upon hearing this, a shudder ran through Fang Lin鈥檚 heart and his expression turned particularly ugly.

鈥淗ahaha! The so-called Xuan Emperor is so base and shameless, truly eye-opening!鈥 Fang Lin laughed heartily, his expressions brimming with ridicule. Nevertheless, Fang Lin had to admit, the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 threat was effective, he truly did not want to see the Purple Mist Sect and Qian Country suffer because of him.

Quite a few of the martial artists from Xuan Country also appeared surprised, as the Emperor was using Fang Lin鈥檚 origins in Qian Country and the Purple Mist Sect as a form of blackmail, which was hardly a respectable thing to do.

Especially someone of the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 stature, should be beholden to their status in acting. Even if he held such ideas, he should have acted covertly, rather than saying these words openly.

鈥淐an we really guess the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 intentions?鈥

...

鈥淭here鈥檚 really nothing to guess, just Qian Country and the Purple Mist Sect. How would the Xuan Emperor even bother about them?鈥

鈥淭hat鈥檚 right, they can be crushed with a flick of the finger, so threatening Fang Lin is nothing significant.鈥

Many people whispered amongst themselves, some furrowing their eyebrows.

鈥淵our Majesty, Fang Lin is a Pill Refiner for our Pill Alliance. Aren鈥檛 you pushing him too far by putting pressure on him like this?鈥 Chen Yongnian emerged, addressing the Xuan Emperor with some dissatisfaction.

Chen Yongnian had not shown himself earlier, nor did he come later, he had chosen this particular moment, marking the perfect timing.

Now was the ideal opportunity for him to protect Fang Lin. Faced with the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 pressure, only the Pill Alliance was capable of protecting Fang Lin.

潡堭潣凁潣潣?co

The Xuan Emperor, though powerful with the vast Xuan Country at his disposal, couldn鈥檛 challenge the Pill Alliance head-on.

The Xuan Emperor slightly furrowed his brows, glancing at Chen Yongnian with a less forceful tone, he said, 鈥淓lder Chen, this matter doesn鈥檛 concern you or the Pill Alliance. This boy is a sworn enemy of my royal family and must be eliminated. I urge you to step back and not to get involved.鈥

Chen Yongnian shook his head, refusing to step back. He was joking. Fang Lin was a promising talent, who possessed both Alchemy and Martial arts skills with boundless potential. If he stayed in the Pill Alliance with single-minded dedication, after a few years, it was highly possible that the Pill Alliance would have a heavyweight combatant.

Moreover, the Lord of the North Town Hall had already shown interest in Fang Lin. There was a strong possibility that Fang Lin would become a disciple of his. By then, Chen Yongnian would have also benefited from this connection.

鈥淵our Majesty, this matter is not irrelevant to me. After all, Fang Lin is ultimately a Pill Refiner registered in my Pill Alliance and has caught the eye of the Lord of the North Town Hall. If you kill him, I鈥檓 afraid there will be a lot to explain to the Lord of the North Town Hall,鈥 Chen Yongnian said, his words conveying a mix of both softness and firmness.

The Xuan Emperor鈥檚 expression tightened as he stared at Chen Yongnian, 鈥淓lder Chen, please step aside. Even if the Lord of the North Town Hall were to personally come here today, Fang Lin would still be unable to escape.鈥

No sooner had he finished speaking than the Xuan Emperor鈥檚 expression changed, directing his gaze towards a particular spot. The powerful people present also felt something and looked over.

A woman in a black dress arrived with two lovely young maids.

鈥淭he Lord of the North Town Hall!鈥

鈥淢y God! Another big figure has arrived!鈥

鈥淚鈥檇 heard earlier that the Lord of the North Town Hall was coming. I didn鈥檛 expect it to be true.鈥

Chen Yongnian鈥檚 face lit up with joy. Although he was in charge of Xuan country鈥檚 Pill Alliance, there was still some disparity between his status and that of the Xuan Emperor.

But now that the Lord of the North Town Hall had arrived personally, things were different. The two of them were on par in terms of both status and power.

As long as the Lord of the North Town Hall intended to protect Fang Lin, even if the Xuan Emperor wanted to stubbornly persist, he would find it difficult to do so.

鈥淟ord of the North Town Hall, the events occurring within my Xuan country seem to have nothing to do with your North Town Hall. May I ask what brings you here?鈥 The Xuan Emperor asked bluntly, his tone somewhat dismissive of the Lord of the North Town Hall鈥檚 arrival. Anyone could hear it.

鈥淴uan Emperor, you can鈥檛 kill this boy. He is my chosen disciple, and now belongs to my North Town Hall. If you want to kill him, are you disregarding me?鈥 The Lord of the North Town Hall stated coldly.

Since the Xuan Emperor didn鈥檛 show any courtesy, she wouldn鈥檛 be overly polite to the Xuan Emperor either. After all, they were both high-ranking individuals, neither superior nor inferior to each other.

The 32 Hall Masters of the Pill Alliance were part of the Alliance鈥檚 executive class and were hardly inferior to the Xuan Emperor.

Of course, if it came to a real fight, whether the Lord of the North Town Hall was a match for the Xuan Emperor was another matter altogether.

But the key was not strength, but status and the identity of the Lord of the North Town Hall.

Being one of the thirty-two hall masters of the Pill Alliance, she was enough to make the Xuan Emperor wary. If he was audacious enough to disregard even the Lord of the North Town Hall, the consequences might not be as simple as just killing Fang Lin. If he annoyed the great entity that was the Pill Alliance, the Xuan Emperor might lose his throne the very next day.

Fang Lin, standing below, felt slightly relieved when he saw Chen Yongnian step forward. Then, when he saw the Lord of the North Town Hall rushing over, he felt even more secure.

The Giant Turtle Demon King, seeing people standing up for Fang Lin, also remained silent. It did not want to get overly involved in these matters. Protecting Fang Lin was only because of the Old Dried Corpse鈥檚 orders.

If it wasn鈥檛 for the Old Dried Corpse鈥檚 request, it wouldn鈥檛 have cared whether Fang Lin was alive or dead.

The Xuan Emperor was now in an awkward situation. With only Chen Yongnian, he didn鈥檛 have to worry too much, even with the protection of the Giant Turtle Demon King, he was still confident of killing Fang Lin.

But with the arrival of the Lord of the North Town Hall, it was different. If she was around and he forcefully took action, that would mean challenging the Pill Alliance.

鈥淴uan Emperor, don鈥檛 worry, I鈥檓 here to help you kill this boy.鈥 Just then, another voice rang out.

Upon hearing this voice, both the Lord of the North Town Hall and Fang Lin鈥檚 expressions deteriorated.

It was a man in a purple robe with a stern face. It was the Lord of the Western Town who had a dispute with Fang Lin.

鈥淗ehe, indeed, those who should come, have come,鈥 Fang Lin said with a laugh, although the laugh looked extremely bitter.

The Xuan Emperor, seeing the Lord of the Western Town appear and taking a stand with him, immediately revealed a smile.

鈥淗aving the Lord of the Western Town鈥檚 assistance pleases me greatly,鈥 the Xuan Emperor said.

The Lord of the Western Town nodded slightly, then his gaze fell on Fang Lin below, a cruel, cold smile playing around the corners of his mouth.

鈥淔ang Lin, you鈥檝e stolen my precious medicine, killed my disciples of the Western Town. Your crimes are monstrous. If you are aware of the grave magnitude of your sins, you may take your own life on the spot. I will leave your body intact,鈥 the Lord of the Western Town said coldly, appearing to be extremely dominant.

鈥淚ndeed, if you take your own life, it will not involve the Qian Country and the Purple Mist Sect. Your sacrifice for the conservation of the Purple Mist Sect and the Qian Country will bring you peace in death,鈥 the Xuan Emperor said indifferently. Their words made it seem as if Fang Lin was already a dead man.
