My Wife Divorced me At the Start but I Gained a Billionfold Repayment System

Chapter 139: Breaking the Qilin Race’s Spine

“Impossible. There has never been any such thing as a member of my Qilin Race becoming a Mount.”

“If Fellow Daoist wishes to humiliate my Qilin Race, then my Qilin Race does not mind going to war with you!”

When Lin Wangu heard this, he immediately spoke with a furious expression.

The dignity of the Qilin Race had been obtained through the blood paid by countless ancestors. If he agreed to let an outsider use a Qilin as a Mount, would that not be the same as destroying everything those ancestors had paid for?

Therefore, no matter what, this matter was absolutely impossible!

Hearing this, Lu Xunxian roughly understood the situation.

Since the Qilin Race’s spine was so proud, he would break it, then reshape it.

“This Venerable One is merely informing you. I did not come here to discuss this with you.”

“If you refuse, then This Venerable One does not mind erasing your Qilin Race from the Ten Great Races of the Immortal Realm!”

The moment his words fell, the powerful aura belonging to the Peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm suddenly erupted from Lu Xunxian’s body.

Feeling Lu Xunxian’s aura, Lin Wangu’s expression abruptly changed.

Although he had also seen that Lu Xunxian was at the Peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm, for some reason, he felt that Lu Xunxian was more than a hundred times stronger than him.

The other five elders all arrived beside Lin Wangu and looked toward him with shared hatred.

“Clan Chief, this person has gone too far. Let us fight him to the death!”

“That is right. If today’s matter spreads, our Qilin Race will lose all face in the Immortal Realm.”

“We implore the Clan Chief to activate the Clan-Protection Grand Formation and kill him!”

“All of you, shut up!”

Lin Wangu took a deep breath and interrupted the five elders. Then he looked at Lu Xunxian and said, “Fellow Daoist, my Qilin Race absolutely cannot accept your actions.”

“If you insist on doing this, then today, do not even think of walking out of my Qilin Race alive!”

The moment his words fell, several beams of light rose into the air within the Qilin Race’s territory. An invisible domain unfolded along with them, instantly enveloping Lu Xunxian, Lin Wangu, and the others.

This was clearly the Qilin Race’s Clan-Protection Grand Formation.

After activating the Clan-Protection Grand Formation, Lin Wangu also gained some confidence. He looked at Lu Xunxian and spoke with a confident tone.

“Fellow Daoist, this formation is my Qilin Race’s Clan-Protection Grand Formation. Even a Peak Immortal Emperor would not dare say they could survive under this formation.”

“If you swear a Heavenly Dao Oath that you will no longer capture members of my Qilin Race as Mounts, I can allow you to leave this place.”

In a one-on-one battle, he could not be certain that he was Lu Xunxian’s match.

But now that he had the assistance of the Clan-Protection Grand Formation, his chances of taking down Lu Xunxian had reached a terrifying sixty-eight percent.

Hearing this, the five elders around him also looked at Lu Xunxian with confident expressions.

Unfortunately, they did not see the slightest fear on Lu Xunxian’s face. He remained as calm as ever.

“You think a mere top-tier Immortal Formation can threaten This Venerable One? Are you looking down on This Venerable One?”

Lu Xunxian shook his head gently. The instant he sighed, he brought one foot down.

In an instant, an invisible wave of Dao Resonance erupted from Lu Xunxian’s body. Wherever it passed, space collapsed and all things ceased to exist.

The top-tier Immortal Formation that Lin Wangu had been so proud of was like a sheet of white paper before Lu Xunxian’s power, easily destroyed.

“What!”

Lin Wangu’s face was filled with disbelief, and the five elders around him also wore ugly expressions.

They clearly had not expected Lu Xunxian’s strength to be powerful to this extent. Was this still an Immortal Emperor?

Or had Lu Xunxian already stepped into the realm of Dao?

Thinking this, Lin Wangu’s mind churned with countless thoughts. In the end, he still made up his mind and said through gritted teeth.

“Fellow Daoist, I can agree to your request.”

“But it is limited only to that one Qilin. If Senior wants more Qilins, then do not blame me for dragging you down with me even if it costs both sides everything.”

“If I self-detonate, I imagine Senior would also be gravely injured.”

Since his goal had already been achieved, Lu Xunxian did not push too far.

After all, if a Peak Immortal Emperor self-detonated, he might truly be able to leave Lu Xunxian with minor injuries.

“Very well. I promise you that I will only take this one Qilin as a Mount.”

“Then I ask Senior to swear a Heavenly Dao Oath, lest you go back on your word afterward.”

Lu Xunxian had not expected Lin Wangu to actually demand that he swear a Heavenly Dao Oath. His expression immediately turned cold.

“I have already given you face by agreeing. Swear a Heavenly Dao Oath? In that case, I do not mind destroying your Qilin Race.”

“Lin Wangu, I imagine you do not wish to see the Qilin Race exterminated, do you?”

“You... Very well. I hope Fellow Daoist will keep your promise.”

Lin Wangu sighed and finally compromised helplessly.

Presumably, the senior before him should be a man of his word and would not violate his promise.

After finishing this matter, Lu Xunxian planned to go to Lin Chongtian’s side to see how the situation was.

Seeing Lu Xunxian leave, Lin Wangu and the five elders finally let out a sigh of relief.

“Clan Chief, are we not going to avenge this? If today’s matter spreads, how will the other nine Great Races view our Qilin Race?”

Second Elder Lin Jianyuan’s expression was ugly as he asked.

But Lin Wangu glared at him with a single look.

“Avenge it? With what?”

“Our Clan-Protection Grand Formation was shattered by a single stomp from him.”

“If all of us attacked together, I fear we would all die at his hands in less than fifteen minutes.”

“Do you think dignity can compare to survival?”

Hearing this, Lin Jianyuan and the other four elders all had extremely ugly expressions, but none of them had anything to say.

They naturally knew that the Clan Chief was right, but they simply could not swallow this resentment.

As the Clan Chief, Lin Wangu naturally knew what they were thinking, but he did not say much. With a raise of his hand, he issued an order.

“Today’s matter absolutely must not spread outside. If it does, the offender will be dealt with directly according to clan rules!”

“Yes, Clan Chief!”

Lin Jianyuan and the five elders agreed. Then they issued the order, forbidding today’s events from spreading.

After Lin Jianyuan and the five elders left, Lin Wangu’s expression became slightly grave.

He was extremely curious where such a mighty figure had come from in the Immortal Realm.

Or had Lu Xunxian descended from the Dao Realm?

But no matter what, the fact was that his Qilin Race was no match for Lu Xunxian. He could only hope that after Lu Xunxian took in that Qilin, he would not come looking for trouble again.

“What? The Clan Chief is not going to pursue this matter?”

When Lin Yuan heard this news, his face was filled with fury.

After all, he had been used as a Mount by a mere human! And it had happened in full view of everyone.

If they could not deal with Lu Xunxian, how could he possibly have any dignity left before his clansmen in the future?

At the side, Lin Jianyuan’s expression was similarly ugly, but he still stopped Lin Yuan.

“Enough. Even the Clan Chief is no match for that person. What else do you want to do?”

“In short, this matter ends here. If you continue to pursue it, you will be dealt with according to clan rules without exception!”

After saying this, Lin Jianyuan ignored Lin Yuan’s deathly pale expression and turned to leave.

Only after a long while did Lin Yuan swallow this grievance with extreme unwillingness. But no one noticed that a strange purple flame flashed through his eyes.
