The Prodigies War-Novel

In the cauldron, Zhao Jingxuan's hair draped down her flawless and glistening body like a waterfall. Her slender and fair back was facing Lin Xun, revealing her sexy shoulders, delicate snow-white arms, and alluring and shapely neck.

The view of her back was enough to take his breath away.

In the past, Zhao Jingxuan was always disguised as a man. Her face was bright and luminous, and she radiated confidence. But now, her long hair was loose, and her shoulders were exposed so her graceful beauty was particularly impactful.

Lin Xun immediately looked away, pretending to be calm, But in truth, the image of her stunning body still lingered in his mind.

“Pah! You didn’t let me see, but you are drooling now. You’re shameless. You’re so shameless! You are a beast in human clothing!” Toady seized the opportunity to lash out at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun flew into a rage from the embarrassment, “Am I as bad as you say? If you spew nonsense again, I’m going to kill you!”

Toady rolled his eyes and said disdainfully, “What? Your shameless true face has been exposed, so you want to silence me?”

While the two were quarreling, Zhao Jingxuan was blushing with embarrassment in the cauldron. She bit her shiny red lips and darted a glance at them. When she saw that they both had their backs to her, she hurriedly got out from the furnace to put on clothes.

Unfortunately, Lin Xun turned his head at the same time and anxiously explained, “Miss Zhao, don’t listen to the toad...uhh…”

Before he finished, he froze in a daze. The graceful figure that was getting out of the cauldron like a lotus flower emerging from the water. Her legs were slender, long and soft, and her waist was slim and supple. Her entire body was captivatingly curvy…

“You!” A clear reprimand rang in his ear like a thunderbolt.

His body stiffened, and he quickly looked away.

At the same time, his heart pounded. Any normal man’s blood would be racing after seeing the breathtaking scenery.

However, Lin Xun felt his scalp numb as a murderous intent locked onto him. It was incomparably ice-cold. He didn’t need to guess to know it was Zhao Jingxuan.

“Hahaha, disaster is about to fall on you, kid!” Toady winked with a gloating smile.

Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan yelled out loud at the same time, “Shut up!”

One’s face was red with embarrassment and humiliation while the other’s face was frosty.

Zhao Jingxuan had changed into a purple robe, which concealed her graceful and slender body. But her long jet-black hair flowing down her shoulders coupled with her perfectly beautiful facial features and smooth skin still brought out a glamorous beauty that she had never exposed before.

“Uh—I—I didn’t mean to,” Lin Xun stuttered as he explained.

He had always maintained a calm state of mind and had no desires ever since he started his cultivation path. It was the first time he had laid his eyes on such breathtakingly beautiful scenery. Besides being amazed, he couldn’t help feeling anxious and worried.

“I think you did it on purpose!” Toady added insult to the injury.

Lin Xun was so mad that he was about to skin the toad alive.

Zhao Jingxuan’s emotions were a little complex. In the end, she took a deep breath and said aloud, “Us cultivators should not bother about such trifles. Don’t ever mention this matter again.”

She pretended to be calm and unconcerned, so her words and tone were very awkward.

Lin Xun felt a huge weight off him and he smiled in relief. “That couldn’t be better!”

Unexpectedly, before his voice faded, Zhao Jingxuan viciously glared at him. But her plump red lips, pearly white teeth and furious gaze looked particularly charming and flirtatious to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun almost couldn’t control himself. In the past, Zhao Jingxuan was always disguised as a man and had an aloof and straightforward personality. Although Lin Xun knew she was a woman, he didn’t have other thoughts about her. But she was different now.

She exuded femininity, and her face was stunningly beautiful and elegant. She was like a peerless beauty in the world. Moreover, Lin Xun had inadvertently caught a breathtaking glimpse of her naked body, so he couldn’t help but feel shy and awkward when he faced her.

Toady stroked his chin, his golden eyes darting between the two. Then, he muttered, “I sense that the relationship between you two is a bit weird now. Girl, you risked your life in the battle a few days ago to help Lin Xun, but now you want to tear him to death. It’s so strange.”

He suddenly slapped his forehead and his eyes lit up. “Is this the legendary love-hate relationship?”

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips twitched violently, and Toady was sent flying with a kick.

“What a good kick! So satisfying,” Zhao Jingxuan remarked.

Lin Xun smiled. “I won’t hesitate to get rid of evil for people.”

Toady squatted down in the corner and cursed through gritted teeth, “What a pair of harmonious whores. I finally saw your ugly faces clearly...”

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Jingxuan stormed over and gave him a beating. Only then did she feel full of energy. “Where did you find this guy? He seems to like being beaten up.”

Lin Xun burst into laughter when he saw Toady writhing on the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face.

Zhao Jingxuan couldn’t help but smile sweetly.

Only Toady almost burst into tears. He secretly vowed to break up the harmonious, violent couple otherwise his life was doomed in the future!

……

Zhao Jingxuan and Toady had completely recovered during the closed-door cultivation, and their cultivation had also improved as a result

Especially Zhao Jingxuan. The emperor had suppressed her cultivation base at the initial Heaven Ascension Stage for over ten years. Otherwise, she would have long reached the Cyclic Derivation Stage!

However, after surviving the hardship, she finally made a step forward and broke through into the mid Heaven Ascension Stage. It was only a bit of progress, but it still brought transformation-like changes to her.

She speculated that average Saint-level figures would be no match for her now.

Her changes reminded Lin Xun of something she said before entering the Deva Secret Realm: She was confident in facing off against Cyclic Derivation cultivators with the help of the Nine Dragons Cauldron.

After her breakthrough, her strength no doubt soared.

Lin Xun couldn’t help smacking his lips.

“What’s the matter? You haven’t seen the fierce characters in ancient times. They were all true abnormal beings. Some had even walked the Saint path when they were born. They were known as innate saints!” Toady spat out.

“In comparison, your so-called Saints and Saintesses may be considered geniuses in today’s world, but they would be nothing in ancient times.”

“Stop exaggerating!” Lin Xun slapped the back of Toady’s head.

Toady flew into a rage and cursed.

“I also heard that the ancient times were a terrifying period. Countless geniuses and freaks were born then. Some were spirits born from heaven and earth. They were like the children of the heavens and were born with unbelievable foundations.” Zhao Jingxuan’s words immediately made Toady grin proudly.

“This girl is more knowledgeable. From what I know, the ancestor of the Six-Eared Macaque Clan was born from a mysterious rock of heaven and earth, and it possessed earthshaking divine powers.”

Toady suddenly cleared his throat with a cough and grinned smugly. “There is also our Three-legged Golden Toad Clan that was born from the energy and qi of heaven and earth. There are only a handful of people in this world that are stronger than us in terms of foundation.”

“Stop exaggerating again. Why have I never seen your powerful strength then?” Lin Xun slapped the back of the toad’s head again

Toady fumed, “If I hadn’t lost my memories of my previous life, I would have ascended the pinnacle of the great dao and transcended worldliness. How could I be bullied by a shameless and heartless human being?”

“Are you a descendant of the Three-Legged Golden Toad? Amazing! In ancient times, the clan was said to be auspicious and able to seek good fortune and avoid calamity due to their ability to identify everything in the world,” Zhao Jingxuan said ruminatively.

The fact that Jin Duyi was from the Three-Legged Golden Toad Clan took her by surprise.

The clan was almost extinct in the present world, and there was almost no trace of it in the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

“Impressive! So impressive! Miss Zhao is intelligent and well-educated!” Toady gave a thumbs up. “I happen to be looking for a companion. Miss Zhao, do you want to consider it...”

With a boom, Lin Xun sent him flying with a punch.

“The toad still wants to eat swan meat?” Lin Xun sneered.

Toady smoldered with resentment and anger. When I rise, I will deal with that bastard Lin Xun!

After that, they talked about the chase a few days ago and also about the assassin who had attacked Lin Xun twice in a row.

Zhao Jingxuan fell silent when she learnt that the assassin was most likely either Xiao Ran or Gong Yangyu.

After a long moment, her eyes were as clear as water. “If you know who the culprit is, then what are you going to do?”

“Get rid of the trouble once and for all.” Lin Xun’s answer was simple but decisive.

“I will help you.”

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingxuan didn’t show any conflicted emotions and stated that she would help him.

“That doesn’t seem right. You are all successors of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land. I don’t want you to kill one another. I will solve it alone,” Lin Xun said solemnly.

“I know what to do.” Zhao Jingxuan smiled without explaining further. She then changed the subject, “According to my speculation, we might be able to find who the culprit is if we make a trip to Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain.”

“Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain?”

“Yes, that’s the Deva’s legacy. The true great opportunity of the secret realm will appear there. A few days ago, the top figures of various clans were already waiting there.”

“Okay, let’s go then!” Lin Xun’s black eyes flashed with a cold glint. His fighting spirit was ignited.

On the same day, they left the mountain range and rushed towards the mysterious Violet Cloud Sacred Mountain with Zhao Jingxuan leading the way.
