Chapter 316: Emperor Destiny (1/2)

At this moment, Yun Lintian was thoroughly dumbfounded as his hands were still frozen in the air while holding the teacup… What the hell was going on? Yun Lintian didn't understand at all.

”I don't know.” Yun Lintian replied uncertainly. No matter how he racked his brain up or tried to replay the whole earlier process in his mind several times, he couldn't come up with any clue… Why did the storm occur all of a sudden? And how was it connecting to Lin Zixuan's strange action?

As Yun Lintian thought of this, the earlier violent phenomenon had disappeared unknowingly, as if nothing had happened before.

”Cough!” Lin Zixuan spat out another mouthful of blood before trying to get up with the help of Jiang Yingyue.

”Are you okay, Sister Zixuan?” Han Bingling asked worriedly and used her profound energy to ease Lin Zixuan's injury.

Lin Zixuan waved her hand and wiped the bloodstain out of her lips. She turned her head toward Yun Lintian and said solemnly. ”Look like I can't be your master.”

Her words made everyone startled. She added. ”Remember, you cannot kneel to anyone.”

Yun Lintian subconsciously nodded his head, even though he didn't understand anything at all.

”Yue'er, find a place for your junior brother first.” Lin Zixuan waved her hand and let Jiang Yingyue led Yun Lintian out of the bamboo hut.

After the two left, Han Bingling sat down and poured the cup of tea for Lin Zixuan as she asked. ”What exactly is going on, Sister Zixuan?”

Lin Zixuan took a sip of tea and remained silent for a moment. She answered. ”Have you ever heard about Emperor Destiny?”

”Emperor Destiny… I think I've heard it somewhere before. It is said anyone who possesses this Emperor Destiny is destined to be the world's emperor… Don't tell me….” Han Bingling was startled upon realizing this.

Lin Zixuan let out a slight hum and said. ”Yun Lintian has this destiny. He's destined to be the emperor. Hence, I do not qualify to be his master. Of course, no one in this world has the qualification. What happened earlier is just a warning. If I received the teacup earlier, I would have gone by now.”

Han Bingling sucked in a cold breath as her heart trembled slightly. She didn't expect the little boy she often teased had actually possessed such an unbelievable destiny.

”You have to keep this matter secret. If they know about this, I'm afraid we cannot protect him.” Lin Zixuan said solemnly. Although the worshiping ceremony was unsuccessful, she had already regarded Yun Lintian as one of her disciples. Even though it was just in name only, it was her duty to protect him.

Han Bingling slowly nodded her head with a serious expression. She obviously knew who were 'they' that Lin Zixuan was talking about.

In a small restaurant nearby the Sky Throne Profound Academy, an old man with a long beard had long put down the chopsticks in his hand and stared attentively at the phenomenon in the sky. He watched it until the phenomenon gradually vanished, but his thoughtful expression did not recede in the slightest.

”What happened just now, Master?” A young man, who sat opposite the old man, asked curiously. If Yun Lintian was here, he would immediately recognize this person right away. He was no other than Du Xiangkong that he met in the Fallen Dragon Forest.

The old man retracted his gaze and smiled at his disciple. ”Kong'er. Is it true that you met the young man named Yun Lintian during the second test?”
