Chapter Fifty-Four: Enormous Harvest

  Lin Xi felt a weakness in his heart when he saw Lin Ru Yun's corpse, and he almost didn't dare to open his eyes to look. But with one grit of his teeth, Lin Xi still glanced over.

  Lin Ruyun's face was pale and motionless, like a dead person. However, this time, after calming down, Lin Xi immediately felt something different.

  Lin Ruyun looked as if she was dead, but upon closer inspection, one could discover the pulse on her wrist and an extremely faint tremble. If one didn't look carefully, it would be impossible to notice.

  The dead must have no pulse!

  Aunt!

  Lin Xi finally couldn't help but walk over quickly, a flush of excitement rising to his face. He had originally thought that his aunt was already dead. But now, he suddenly discovered that there was still a glimmer of hope, and how could he not be excited?

  Lin Ruyun lay in the iron coffin, motionless. Her breathing was still faint and her body extremely cold, but no matter what, that faint pulse at least gave Lin Xi a glimmer of hope.

  Shasha!

  A series of footsteps came from behind. The Sixth Elder, Han Shizhong, followed the Great Elder and walked in from outside the hall. Behind Lin Xi, he slowed down his pace.

  "Lin Xi, I've already asked a captive Leng Yang Sect elder. One of the three elders is a Qi-refining realm technique called the Soul Searching Great Method. This technique is extremely vicious, those who are affected will lightly have their memories scrambled and become foolish, while heavily affected ones will have their souls scattered and even divine medicine can't save them. I hope you don't hold too much hope."

  The old man said in a low voice.

  Although it's not quite timely to say this now, the elder still wants to mention something to Lin Xi. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

  He didn't want Lin Xi to be too hopeful and suffer a second blow later on.

  "Elder, don't say any more. I know what I'm doing. As long as there's still a glimmer of hope, I won't give up on Auntie."

  Lin Xi said in a low voice.

  His eyes were clear and his expression was firm, apparently he had not lost his mind.

  The old man's eyes flashed a worried look, and he blinked, hinting with his eyes, glancing at the Sixth Elder Han Shizhong beside him.

  Han Shizhong nodded in agreement and took two steps forward, saying:

  "This is the Gate of Frosty Iron Coffin, which I found in the Liuyang Sect. It's a Red Flame Palm practice that has reached a certain level of fire, used to blend water and fire, and enhance one's power. The three elders can be placed inside this Frosty Iron Coffin to preserve their physical bodies for a period of time. However, it won't last too long. As martial artists, we have great strength, but we are still human, and if we don't eat or drink, we will die. The current state of the three elders is that they can't take in any food or water, and I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for much longer."

  Han Shizhong did not forget to take credit even at this time.

  At this time, Lin Xi only felt an extremely cold feeling coming from under his hands. His heart was shocked and he finally came back to his senses.

  Lin Xi knew at this time that Da Zhang Lao was probably still not at ease with himself. To avoid both of them thinking too much, he simply said:

  "Elder, rest assured. I know the importance of timing. - Han Shizhong, this cold iron coffin will be kept in Lieyang Mountain for now. Also, I'm assigning you a task. Take full responsibility for guarding this coffin, use every method you can think of to find as many ice blocks as possible and put them inside the coffin to lower the temperature."

  The lower the temperature, the less consumption of all aspects of the human body. When it reaches a certain level, it will achieve an ice-sealing effect. This maximally preserves Lin Ruyun's physical body.

  These were all simple truths for Lin Xi.

  "Han Shizhong obeyed. Don't worry, I will definitely do my best to preserve Lin Changlao's body." Han Shizhong was overjoyed.

  Lin Xi is willing to reuse him, and this is also an opportunity. Following someone who can kill the Red Lotus Sect, the future is simply boundless. More importantly, Lin Xi is not even eighteen years old yet!

  Han Shizhong could totally imagine how bright Lin Xi's future would be.

  He didn't take advantage of Lin Xi's challenge to the Red Lotus Sect to escape or do something else. Instead, he followed him all the way to Lieyang Mountain, just because he saw the infinite potential in Lin Xi.

  Han Shizhong was betting, he bet the fate of his second half life on Lin Xi. His years were already high, wanting to reach the Lei Ming period, or the legendary Lian Qi realm, almost hopeless in this life.

  But if Lin Xi stepped into the Refining Qi Realm, then as his follower, he would eventually step into that realm one day.

  This is Han Shizhong's true ambition and revenge in his heart!

  At that time, if Lin Xi lost, it would be a dead end. There was no loss for him either. But the fact proved that he actually won the gamble.

  Currently, no matter what is said, Han Shizhong will not leave Lin Xi. With a keen sense of smell, he has an endless supply of martial arts legend flavor on Lin Xi's body.

  Lin Xi nodded and walked straight out of the main hall, without even looking back.

  The old man let out a sigh of relief and followed him out of the great hall.

  Although it's a bit cruel, Lin Xi who has now regained his sanity is actually beneficial to the entire sect.

  Facing the strong wind, standing on the mountain of fierce sun, looking down at the past, with a panoramic view all around.

  As a large sect with hundreds of years of foundation, Lieyang Sect's accumulated wealth and sect treasures are not something that Wulei Sect can compare to. Just this mountain gate alone is much more majestic and atmospheric.

  "After that, the Thunder Five Sect will move here. This Lying Yang Mountain will be renamed Wu Lei Mountain and serve as our sect's mountain gate and dojo."

  Lin Xi faced the gale and said in a deep voice.

  "Yes, sir!"

  The two old men and Han Shizhong were overjoyed upon hearing this. Although they had the same intention, only Lin Xi, as the leader, had the right to make such a decision.

  The Great Elder had this idea in order to prevent the resurgence of Lieyang Sect. If Lieyang Mountain was still around, they would reassemble and rebuild Lieyang Mountain once again, which would be extremely disadvantageous for the Five Thunder Sect.

  As for Han Shizhong, he had already known his decision when Lin Xi proposed putting the cold iron coffin here.

  The majestic mountain of Lieyang has a magnificent momentum, with many temples. No matter how you look at it, it is more grand and spectacular than the original Wulei Mountain.

  Wulei Sect has such a mountain gate, and later changed "sect" to "religion", it was easy to become a classic!

  At this time, the disciples of Wu Lei Sect have all arrived at Lieyang Sect. One by one, they are all sorting out the various wealth and treasures of Lieyang Sect.

  Chi Lian Zong died too suddenly, and no one expected this result. As a result, the wealth of Lie Yang Zong was completely intact on the mountain. Whether it was elixirs, medicinal materials, silver notes, or various gold and silver items, everything remained untouched.

  Even many of the disciples' clothes were all left on the mountain.

  The Wu Lei Sect disciples were divided into teams, continuously carrying out goods and then registering them in a book by the disciples. Everything was going on in an orderly manner, obviously thanks to Han Shizhong's proper command.

  During the time Lin Xi was unconscious, some results had already been sorted out. Just as the three of them walked out of the main hall, a core disciple seized the opportunity and immediately came forward to greet them.

  "Head of the sect, two elder, the investigation has yielded results. This is the number, please head of the sect and several elders to review."

  The core disciple held up both hands and handed over a stack of account books.

  "Not yet handed over for the master's review."

  Han Shizhong immediately glared at him. At this time, Lin Xi naturally had to show his status as the master of the house.

  Lin Xi didn't stand on ceremony, picked up an account book and started reading. The contents of the account book were very miscellaneous, all sorts of trivial things were recorded. Lin Xi flipped through a few pages and immediately saw what was behind.

  "One hundred and thirty-seven bottles of Red Flame Dan, three bottles of Thunderclap Dan, eight hundred thousand taels of gold, one billion taels of silver. Three hundred million silver notes!"

  Lin Xi's pupils constricted as he read this, and his heart fiercely skipped a beat.

  What is a major sect? What is called being wealthy and arrogant?

  That's it!

  The Wu Lei Sect has been doing quite well in secular business and is considered to be wealthy. But compared to the Lie Yang Sect, it's like a drop of water in the ocean, not even worth mentioning.

  800,000 taels of gold, 10 million taels of silver, and 300 million silver notes!

  This wealth alone is enough for the Five Thunder Sect disciples to live a life of luxury and practice their skills without doing anything else for several hundred years.

  Liyang Sect has a deep root and lush leaves, operating for over a hundred years. These wealth also don't know how long they have accumulated, but were taken advantage of by Lin Xi and the Five Thunder Sect.

  One hundred and thirty-seven bottles of Scarlet Flame Elixir, I don't know if it's enough for the Five Thunder Sect to cultivate how many masters. Lin Xi doesn't even need to go to Beast Mountain Range anymore.

  As for Leiming Dan, there is no doubt that it was brought by Chuliang Zong for his own use. Just looking at the mere three bottles, one can also tell how precious this kind of elixir is.

  Not to mention the ones recorded in the account book, the medicine storage of Lieyang Sect has accumulated a large number of medicines that are piled up like mountains. The medicines in the storage of Lieyang Sect are different from those of Wulei Sect and absolutely cannot be found with less than ten years of fire refining.

  Over a hundred years of fire-refined medicinal materials, piled up in heaps that can't be counted!

  "This is great... what a huge profit!"

  Lin Xi gazed at the thin curtain, muttering to herself in her heart.

  Behind him, the breathing of Da Zhang Lao and Han Shizhong was also somewhat abnormal.

  At such a close distance, with both of their abilities, it was naturally impossible not to see clearly. Both of them realized what such a large sum of wealth meant for the Five Thunder Sect.

  To put it bluntly, what about those disciples who scattered after the Five Thunder Sect underwent a huge change?

  With these riches, it would be easy to establish an even larger and more powerful Thunderclap Sect. In comparison, the previous seven hundred disciples of the Thunderclap Sect were nothing, even if they all scattered.

  "This is terrible...!"

  Han Shizhong muttered to himself.

  In order to please Lin Xi, these accounts, he had not reviewed before. Although knowing that the harvest would be considerable, he did not expect it to be so enormous.

  "We've robbed a major sect of all its treasures!"

  Han Shizhong had an idea in his mind, and a sense of absurdity rose up in his heart. But this feeling was so real, it couldn't be any more real.

  "In the place where the master of Lieyang Sect fell, we found these two things. However, as disciples, we cannot make decisions on our own and dare not keep them private. Please take a look, Master."

  The core disciple holding the account book suddenly said again. It seems that if the words are not shocking, they will not stop until death.
