Chapter 1934: The tenth sun of Immortal Astral, Killing in the Wind and Snow! (Third Update)

"Benefactor, it's really you! I've been looking for you for so long, it's truly you!!" The flower-shirted youth turned, his gaze sweeping over the crowd below, then looking at Wang Lin in mid-air.

"Where are you? Brother, which one is my benefactor?"

Wang Lin silently watched the madman before him. He could clearly see that there was no memory of him in the other party's eyes. With a soft sigh, Wang Lin slowly descended, standing in front of the madman.

"Madman…" Wang Lin spoke softly.

"Madman? You're the madman, how dare you insult this king? Let me tell you, this king is very powerful!!" The flower-shirted youth glared, shouting at Wang Lin.

"Uh… you wouldn't happen to be my benefactor, would you?" The madman rubbed his eyes, circling Wang Lin a few times. The green-clothed youth was no longer embracing him, but stood respectfully by his side.

"Alright, even if you are, fine. Now that I've seen my benefactor, I ask you, who beat my Xiao Huahua's grandfather into that state? Was it him!" The flower-shirted youth pointed at the frowning Imperial Advisor in the distance, roaring his question at Wang Lin.

"Daofei, if you cause trouble again, I will lock you up once more! This is the Grand Investiture Ceremony. Luo Gong failed his challenge against your benefactor and it has nothing to do with the Imperial Advisor. Retreat!" From within the Immortal Dao Hall, the Immortal Emperor's voice, seemingly tinged with anger, rang out.

"Ah?" The flower-shirted youth was stunned, seemingly unable to sort things out for a moment. He blinked, then grabbed the green-clothed youth who was following him.

"Help me sort this out, I'm a bit confused… Xiao Huahua's grandfather wasn't beaten by the Imperial Advisor, so who beat him? He challenged benefactor? I'm a bit confused… quickly analyze it for me."

The green-clothed youth had a bitter expression, looking at Wang Lin, then at the flower-shirted youth, and spoke in a low voice.

"Your Highness, let's go… Ah, I remember now, we have a furnace of Medicinal Pills still in Alchemy. If we go back late, I'm afraid the Medicinal Pills will be ruined. These are the Medicinal Pills you wanted to give to Heavenly Venerate Haizi."

"Medicinal Pills? Oh right, I'm still doing Alchemy!" The flower-shirted youth paused, as if just remembering, and immediately turned to leave. But his footsteps halted, he turned back, looked at the green-clothed youth, and roared.

"No, Xiao Huahua's grandfather was beaten, I still remember that! You… you… Hmph, Xiao Hong, stop playing dead, find out who beat Xiao Huahua's grandfather for this king, and this king will reward you!"

The flower-shirted youth vigorously fanned himself, shouting loudly at Xu Ligou, who was pretending to be dead in the distance.

Xu Ligou suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up high, his face full of fawning flattery, and quickly ran over. Like a mortal constable, his gaze first swept over the bitter-smiling old man of the Luo family, then looked at Wang Lin.

However, the moment his eyes met Wang Lin's, Xu Ligou's body suddenly trembled. This tremor came from the depths of his Soul. He stared blankly at Wang Lin, as if having a dreamlike sensation, as if he had seen the other party somewhere before, once so familiar… "Evil Star… Master…" Xu Ligou murmured subconsciously, as if some memory was about to awaken, but just then, he was grabbed by the shoulder by the flower-shirted youth and violently shaken.

With this shake, Xu Ligou suddenly sobered up, his face pale, and he pointed at Wang Lin's body, retreating repeatedly.

"It's him, it's him, Your Highness, it was he who injured Xiao Huahua's grandfather!"

"Oh, so it was you!" The flower-shirted youth roared, no longer fanning himself. He stepped forward, grabbing Wang Lin's neck with both hands, a fierce expression on his face.

"I'm going to strangle you, strangle you!"

Wang Lin closed his eyes, hiding the sorrow within them. He knew that the madman had no memories of the Immortal Cave Realm.

"Daofei, get down!" An angry voice came from within the Immortal Dao Hall. At the same time, the Immortal Emperor's figure walked out of the grand hall. With a wave of his right hand, the flower-shirted youth, who was pinching Wang Lin's neck, immediately shot backward like a willow catkin. The green-clothed youth and Xu Ligou quickly followed, not daring to stay there alone.

"Black Armored Forbidden Soldiers, escort him out of the Imperial Palace, he is not allowed to enter!" The Immortal Emperor frowned, letting out a low shout.

"You just wait, you dared to injure Xiao Huahua's grandfather, this king remembers this…" The flower-shirted youth's voice gradually faded. When Wang Lin opened his eyes and looked back, the madman's figure was gone, only the lingering light of a Teleportation Formation remained.

"Daofei has been like this since he returned, sometimes his memory is blurry, sometimes clear. Perhaps when he is clear, he can recognize you." The Immortal Emperor sighed softly. At this moment, he seemed not like a Great Heavenly Venerate, nor an Immortal Emperor, but a brother.

Wang Lin remained silent, not speaking. He had come to Ancestral City just to see the madman. Now that he had seen him, even if the other party had lost his memory, he had no regrets, and a desire to leave had formed in his heart.

"The challenge ceremony does not need to proceed. Wang Lin, you were able to pass the seventeenth level of Heavenly Venerate Nirvana. Today, I confer upon you the title of the forty-ninth Soaring Heavenly Venerate of the Immortal Clan!

Since you are known as 'White Hair,' and you obtained the white hair refined from the Heavenly Lion Beast, I bestow upon you the title of White Hair Soaring Heavenly Venerate!

All Soaring Heavenly Venerates of Our Immortal Clan have one opportunity to enter the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground for enlightenment. There, you will obtain great good fortune, laying a solid foundation for your future as a Great Heavenly Venerate!

Even in the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground, your cultivation will increase significantly. Such an opportunity, even for those of the Immortal Emperor's Bloodline, is only available three times in a lifetime. As for Cultivators not of the Immortal Emperor's Bloodline, they can only be granted such an opportunity upon becoming a Soaring Heavenly Venerate!

This matter is extremely rare, Wang Lin. You and I had some misunderstandings before. I hope that they can be resolved now. You should cultivate well in the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground, so as to strive to become the Sixth Sun of the Immortal Clan as soon as possible!

Furthermore, become a pillar of the Immortal Clan and re-establish the Immortal Ancestor's might!" The Immortal Emperor's expression was extremely sincere. He looked at Wang Lin, his gaze distantly sweeping towards the Teleportation Formation.

"I only have this one younger brother." The Immortal Emperor sighed softly.

"Go to the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground. I will have Daofei go there as well. Perhaps you can help him slowly recall the past. When I found him, there was also a woman beside him. That woman has now also awakened and is cultivating in the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground." The Immortal Emperor's expression was gentle as he looked at Wang Lin.

"Many thanks, Your Majesty the Immortal Emperor. This Wang's visit was only for the investiture. Now that the investiture is complete, it is time to depart. Should I return to Ancestral City in the future, I will then go to the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground." Wang Lin cupped his fist towards the Immortal Emperor, refusing the reward of going to the Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground.

The Immortal Emperor fell silent, nodded, and no longer persuaded him.

The Grand Investiture Ceremony concluded as the midday sun shone brightly. As the Cultivators in the plaza before the Immortal Dao Hall respectfully departed, Wang Lin also left the Imperial Palace, declining the Immortal Emperor's offer to reside within the palace. He walked out of the Imperial Palace alone and departed via a Teleportation Formation.

He did not stay at the Li Residence either, but instead took Hailong and Liu Jinbiao back to their inn room in the East City.

"I saw him… even if he lost his memory, he seems very happy now, and that's enough…" Wang Lin stood by the window of the room, gazing at the darkening sky outside. He had been standing there all afternoon.

"It's time to leave… Fine, I'll take Xu Ligou and leave this Immortal Clan Ancestral City… to the… Ancient Clan!" Wang Lin sighed softly. He was a little tired. In the Immortal Clan, he had experienced many things and now possessed his current status and cultivation, but all of this seemed insignificant compared to his old friend losing his memory.

"Perhaps I have some misunderstandings about the Immortal Emperor…" Wang Lin mused in silence, recalling the scenes of the investiture. In reality, his resistance to the Immortal Emperor had no reason, only an intuition.

"But no matter what, I cannot go to that Immortal Ancestor's Seclusion Ground. Misunderstanding or not, caution and vigilance cannot be changed by a few words." As Wang Lin pondered, the sky outside the window slowly darkened, and snowflakes began to fall. The snow, in the lamplight from the eaves, resembled goose feathers, dancing brightly before disappearing into the shadows beyond the light's reach.

The wind and snow arrived silently. When it was at its heaviest, a soft knock came from Wang Lin's inn room.

The sound was unhurried and very gentle.

"Heavenly Venerate Haizi." Wang Lin turned around. The door was gently pushed open, and Heavenly Venerate Haizi stood there smiling, her long hair flowing freely. There were still some unmelted snowflakes on her hair, giving this exquisitely beautiful woman an unusual charm.

"Having come to Ancestral City, why not visit Emperor Mountain… Emperor Mountain now has no red leaves, but it has snow. Wang Lin, I am here on Master's orders to invite you to Emperor Mountain."

"Since Great Heavenly Venerate Jiudi invites, I naturally must go." Wang Lin smiled faintly.

In the wind and snow, the bright moon was obscured. On the streets, perhaps due to the increasingly heavy snow, figures hurried by, gradually becoming fewer and fewer. Wang Lin and Heavenly Venerate Haizi walked along the street, facing the snow. Behind them, four long lines of footprints were left, but they were soon faintly covered by snowflakes.

"Aside from specific areas, Ancestral City cannot be freely teleported to due to Restrictions. Not far ahead is a Teleportation Formation of my Emperor Mountain. We'll reach Emperor Mountain soon.

Looking at your figure just now, you seemed to have a desire to leave. When will you go?" Heavenly Venerate Haizi looked at Wang Lin beside her and spoke softly.

"After coming down from Emperor Mountain, I will leave…" Wang Lin said calmly, the snow crunching under his feet.

The surroundings were silent, with only the sound of the snow, as if even the wind had vanished. This was a long street, with dark houses on both sides, devoid of any light, making the street seem somewhat eerie, subtly exuding a chilling aura, as if even the snow had changed, concealing a hidden killing intent!

Wang Lin's forward steps suddenly halted. A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and a strong sense of crisis abruptly struck him. Heavenly Venerate Haizi also tensed, stopping her steps and abruptly looking around.

"There's a fluctuation of a confining Seal!"

"No one knew I was coming for you!" Heavenly Venerate Haizi immediately explained.

Wang Lin remained silent, but the coldness in his gaze towards the distance intensified.

The wind and snow grew fiercer… Third update complete, please give your monthly votes!!
