In a moment of disbelief, Tang Huohuo never imagined that Old Fu, who had always treated him well, would abandon him at such a critical time and run away alone!
Thud!
Even as Tang Huohuo's body fell, Old Fu didn't spare a glance in that direction.
Where could he run?
Chen Anlin once again channeled the spiritual energy within the Spirit Storage Pearl. The sword intent, infused with powerful spiritual force, surged towards Old Fu.
Having lost Tang Huohuo's physical form, Old Fu was already incredibly weak. His intention had been for Tang Huohuo to hold off the enemy while he made his escape.
Unexpectedly, Tang Huohuo proved utterly useless.
“No! Don’t!”
Old Fu let out his final, anguished cry before dissipating into nothingness.
It was done. Chen Gongzi was indeed formidable.
The members of the Wanjian Mountain Manor raised their eyebrows in surprise. They had initially thought that Chen Anlin was merely powerful due to his influence. However, witnessing his strength firsthand changed their perception entirely.
None of those present dared to guarantee they could have captured Old Fu, yet Chen Anlin could.
Moreover, the strange power he wielded was something they had never encountered before, leaving them in awe.
Looking at his son's lifeless body on the ground, Tang Zhan was filled with immense sorrow. “Damn those evil creatures!”
“Tang family head, please accept my condolences,” Xu Xi sighed.
“Thank you, Xu Manor Master. Thank you, Chen Gongzi, for ridding my family of this demon.”
One by one, the members of the Tang family came forward to express their gratitude.
Then, they invited everyone to stay for a meal. Noticing that it was getting late outside, Xu Xi accepted the invitation.
Afterward, under the pretense of an investigation, Chen Anlin examined some of Tang Huohuo's belongings.
The most important item was a pendant. This pendant had properties similar to Bai Yu Xianzi's spatial ring; it could not only store items but also preserve souls.
Inside, amidst some clutter, there was surprisingly a book.
"Compendium of Runes."
This must be the inheritance of that soul.
Chen Anlin tucked it away and turned to Bai Yu Xianzi beside him, saying, "Did you see that? If this person doesn't listen, he ends up dead. Luckily, you were very obedient back then; otherwise, you would have probably scattered into nothingness by now."
"But I helped you quite a bit too," Bai Yu Xianzi pouted.
"Then you should understand some things." Chen Anlin patted her shoulder and replied lightly, "Understand??"
"Oh, what a miserable fate," Bai Yu Xianzi sighed and lay down.
With that situation resolved, the next morning, Chen Anlin and the people from Wan Jian Mountain Manor left the place.
Upon returning to Wan Jian Mountain Manor, Chen Anlin had no intention of staying. After all, the matter was settled; he needed to return to the capital.
However, Guo Xi clearly wanted Chen Anlin to stay a little longer.
"Anlin, since you're with Xuexin now, take her along to the capital! By the way, we've also prepared a wedding house for you here! I'll discuss it with your parents so that you can marry soon."
"Dad, what are you talking about? I don't want to get married yet," Guo Xuexin unexpectedly said with a hint of pride.
Guo Xi nearly jumped up in frustration.
Her daughter really didn't understand; wasn't she afraid of facing many hardships?
Chen Anlin looked at Guo Xuexin with some surprise but said nothing and nodded, "Let's listen to Xuexin."
"Hahaha, good, good."
With Chen Anlin's affirmation, Guo Xi finally felt relieved.
After all, although her daughter had just said that, she believed that under her persuasion, her daughter would come to understand.
Thus, Chen Anlin was led to a residence within Wan Jian Mountain Manor.
The place was quite spacious, featuring rockeries and flowing water—very impressive indeed.
"This is the wedding house for me and Guo Xuexin?"
Truly worthy of a powerful faction; their generosity was remarkable.
As night fell.
Chen Anlin held Xu Xuexin close, fiddling with a broad bean, and said lazily, "You've got quite the nerve today. How did you tell your father that you don't want to get married for the time being?"
Xu Xuexin snorted coldly, "Of course! What's so great about marriage? You have to serve your husband and then raise kids. It's exhausting! I'm still young; I don't want to rush into it."
Chen Anlin was momentarily speechless; she had a point.
"And besides, you haven't even pursued me yet!" Xu Xuexin brought up her most pressing concern.
"Given our situation, do you really expect me to chase after you?" Chen Anlin couldn't help but chuckle.
"Of course! If you don't pursue me, I won't be so easy to marry off to you."
"Then who will you marry? Some honest guy? Poor honest men have it rough enough!"
"You—"
Xu Xuexin shot him a fierce glare. "Don't say such nonsense!"
"Alright, here, this is for you." Chen Anlin handed her the pendant he had received earlier.
"What is this?" Xu Xuexin asked, seeing the pendant for the first time.
It wasn't particularly beautiful; it resembled an ancient bronze jade tablet. She released her aura to examine it and found it rather ordinary.
"Try channeling your soul power and take another look," Chen Anlin suggested.
Xu Xuexin nodded and focused her soul power. This time, she noticed something different.
Inside, there was a hidden world.
The storage space was significantly larger than an ordinary storage bag, and there seemed to be a special energy within it.
Not only was it bigger than a storage bag, but the key point was that it could store soul power.
Xu Xuexin was completely astonished. "This treasure... is it really for me?"
