Chapter 39 A Powerful Man's Night Visit: The First Signs of Storms
Lu Lingxi's gaze suddenly deepened, as if she had caught an unusual aura in the distance. She parted her lips slightly, her tone filled with undisguised solemnity.
“There… there is a powerful spiritual energy fluctuation, which is approaching us at an alarming speed. Its strength is so great that even from a distance, I can feel the oppressive aura.”
She frowned slightly, trying to gauge the depth of that power with her own senses, but could only vaguely determine: "This person's cultivation level is probably beyond our easy comprehension. At least... it should be at the Spirit Emperor realm, or even higher. My cultivation is still shallow, and I cannot fully comprehend it."
Nalan Rongzhi leaned lazily against the edge of the roof, his fingers gently stroking his chin. His eyes were indifferent, and his tone was full of absolute confidence, as if all the living beings on the Holy Spirit Continent were nothing more than ants in his eyes, which he could easily crush.
"A mere Spirit Venerable is nothing more than an insignificant speck of dust. The word 'trash' is quite fitting when applied to him."
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi glanced at Nalan Rongzhi, a complex emotion rising within her—no wonder he was so confident, given his immense strength. But she quickly withdrew her gaze, refocusing on the increasingly approaching, powerful force in the distance.
The figure, like a ghost in the night, moved silently between the rooftops, finally landing in the front courtyard of Lu Ling's residence.
Following closely behind, several figures caught up at a speed no less than the former. They were dressed in magnificent robes and all exuded powerful spiritual energy fluctuations, their cultivation having reached the Spirit King and Spirit Emperor realms.
Lu Lingxi suddenly stood up, her slender eyebrows furrowed tightly, and a sharp light flashed in her eyes. She said softly, "They've finally arrived."
Nalan Rongzhi, who had been standing silently to the side, also moved. With a gentle twist, his right hand naturally wrapped around Lu Lingxi Yao's soft and slender waist, and he floated down leisurely from the roof.
Zhi Xia, who was engrossed in watching the show, suddenly heard light footsteps. Her eyes lit up as if she had discovered something extremely interesting. She quickly turned around and went to greet them, excitedly saying...
"Miss, you've missed a great show! Guess who's in Miss Qingyue's room right now?"
Zhi Xia's face was filled with undisguised excitement, and her voice carried a hint of urgency and mystery, as if she was about to reveal the world's biggest secret.
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi slowed her pace, raised her eyebrows slightly, and pretended to be infected by Zhixia's anxious emotions, asking curiously, "Oh? Who caused such a big reaction from you?"
Zhixia leaned closer, lowered her voice, but her eyes gleamed with schadenfreude. "It's the eldest son of the Lin family—Lin Chujie! What a twist of fate! I used to worry unnecessarily, thinking he and our young lady were a match made in heaven. I never imagined he was such a despicable person in private! Now it seems our young lady was truly wise to see through his true colors early on and stay away from this scumbag. It's truly gratifying!"
Lu Lingxi smiled indulgently, then walked to the door. Without hesitation, she suddenly raised her right foot and kicked the door hard. With a loud 'bang,' the door opened and shook a few times before finally opening wide, revealing everything behind it.
At this moment, Lu Lingqingyue's outer clothes had been removed by Lin Chujie, leaving only her inner lining, and her bare shoulders were partially exposed.
Hearing the loud noise, Lin Chujie suddenly raised his head, his gaze shooting like an arrow towards the open door, looking at the figure standing in the doorway with surprise—Lu Lingxi Yao.
However, just as Lin Chujie was about to unleash a torrent of abuse, his gaze involuntarily drifted past Lu Lingxi Yao and landed on the extraordinary-looking man behind her.
He stood there, tall and straight, with a handsome face, like a fox spirit who had stepped out of a painting, exuding a purity and elegance untouched by the world.
Lin Chujie's heart tightened suddenly, and a look of disbelief flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by a strong fire of jealousy. He had never been so aware of his own shortcomings, especially at this moment. Facing Nalan Rongzhi's extraordinary appearance, he felt as if he had been ruthlessly placed in a humble corner. He had always prided himself on being dashing and handsome, but now, that confidence seemed so pale and powerless in front of Nalan Rongzhi.
Jealousy spread like a venomous snake in his heart. He would not allow, nor would he be willing to accept, anyone surpassing him in any way, especially in appearance.
With a deep and powerful roar, Lin Chujie gathered all his strength, his longsword crackling with lightning and filled with boundless rage. He leaped up like a cheetah pouncing on its prey, swiftly thrusting towards Nalan Rongzhi.
"Out of control."
Nalan Rongzhi said indifferently, his tone full of disdain. He moved his finger slightly, and the sword suddenly seemed to encounter an invisible pressure, or as if it had touched a hard barrier. With a crisp "crack!", in Lin Chujie's astonished gaze, his treasured sword shattered inch by inch before his eyes, turning into countless tiny iron fragments that scattered all over the ground.
As Nalan Rongzhi slowly closed his long, slender fingers, Lin Chujie's body began to tremble violently. Every muscle seemed to be squeezed by an indescribable force, and pain surged like a tidal wave. His face quickly lost its color, turning pale and distorted. Large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, contrasting sharply with the bloodstains on his lips from biting them in an attempt to endure the pain, making him look exceptionally ferocious and terrifying.
His eyes were wide open, filled with fear. He tried to struggle, but found that all his efforts were in vain. Finally, the pain that was almost tearing him apart exceeded the limit of his endurance. He screamed hoarsely with all his might.
"Stop! Stop it now!..."
Lu Lingxi looked outside the door and complained inwardly: Those people are really slow.
Nalan Rongzhi seemed to sense something and slowly released his hand, allowing Lin Chujie to breathe, panting heavily! However, his body seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move an inch.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze swept by, bringing a familiar and comforting scent. A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Chujie's eyes, which quickly turned into uncontrollable excitement.
"Uncle! Help me, Uncle!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lingxi chuckled softly. Her eyes narrowed slightly as she thought to herself: No wonder the Lin family is so arrogant in Guiyun City. It turns out they have a powerful backer. But who exactly is this powerful figure behind them? This makes me quite curious.
Just then, a gentle breeze carrying a faint scent from outside quietly drifted in, and then a man in his early thirties entered the room. He was tall and elegant, with a warm smile on his lips, but his eyes shone with an unusual light.
When he saw Nalan Rongzhi inside the room, he was immediately stunned by his unparalleled beauty. His eyes instantly turned greedy, and the smile on his face gradually became lewd.
He walked up to Nalan Rongzhi and said very respectfully, "May I ask how this young master is addressed?"
Nalan Rongzhi ignored him and looked directly at Lu Lingxi Yao. "Yao Yao, what do you think should be done about this trespassing?"
Lu Lingxi's gaze swept lightly over everyone present, her eyes devoid of any warmth. A barely perceptible curve appeared at the corner of her lips, but it was not out of a smile; rather, it was a faint mockery and disdain.
"I think neither of these two is any good. They're just wasting air by living in this world. They might as well be dead."
The man wasn't angry; he still had a smile on his face. "Who is this young lady, daring to speak so arrogantly in front of me?"
A mysterious smile played on Lu Lingxi's lips. "Who it is doesn't matter. All you need to know is that now that you're here, don't even think about going back..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lu Lingxi raised her left hand slightly, and there seemed to be a strange smell in the air, but it quickly disappeared.
Lu Zixuan's expression instantly turned serious. He reacted quickly, covering his face with his sleeve and nimbly leaping back two steps to maintain a safe distance.
A flicker of surprise and wariness crossed his eyes. "What...did you do?"
Lu Lingxi's smile deepened, becoming even more playful. She didn't answer directly, but instead parted her lips slightly, leaving behind a meaningful sentence: "You'll understand soon enough."
Lu Zixuan immediately said to the people behind him, "Quickly cover your mouths and noses and keep your distance from her!"
