Chapter 296: The Actions of the Bloodwind Spirit

The word spread, and Liu Shuqin was hailed as a miracle worker.

And Lin Nuo? He was the man behind the miracle worker.

Though he consistently denied it, Liu Shuqin and the other immortals insisted that his modesty was just a facade; all his refusals were just humble words.

He was like, “No f.u.c.k way!”

Now things had spiraled out of control.

Liu Shuqin’s prescription was now regarded as a divine remedy, and everyone in the city who knew how to brew medicine was busy concocting it. With the help of fire users to manage the flames, the medicinal tea was ready in no time.

The cursed citizens drank the tea, and the traits of the Blood Splitting Curse on them began to disappear, leading them steadily away from the brink of death.

Timely medicinal tea—saving the people from dire straits!

The rescued citizens were overflowing with gratitude, showering Lin Nuo and Liu Shuqin with high praises, and their names quickly spread throughout the city.

The dark clouds dissipated, dawn broke anew, and with the fierce beasts outside the city defeated, citizens dodged a great calamity. Everything was looking up.

Naturally, this reached Yu Sha’s ears. The soaring black bird had witnessed scene after scene in the city.

And the Bloodwind Spirit within the city had relayed the information to Yu Sha as well.

With gritted teeth, Yu Sha angrily destroyed nearby shrubs.

“That kid again! This Lin Nuo kid, I seriously underestimated him!”

Last time it was Zifeng Valley brought down by Lin Nuo, and now it’s the same dude! Who is he to be able to decipher his Blood Splitting Curse?

This frustration? I can’t just swallow it!

“What are you planning to do, Master Yu Sha?”

The old wizard approached Yu Sha, tapping his bony staff on the ground, and said,

“Through this Blood Splitting Curse, absorbing the blood essence of the citizens, you’ve made significant gains. So this journey isn’t in vain. Let’s get the Bloodwind Spirit back, and then we can plan further.”

“No, I can’t just leave like this; my Bloodwind Spirit is still highly useful.”

Yu Sha sneered, initially thinking of playing it step by step. Now that the Blood Splitting Curse was lifted, his long-term plan was falling apart; it called for some aggressive tactics.

Now that the Lin family’s blood essence was significantly absorbed, the Bloodwind Spirit’s power rapidly escalated. Time to make a move.

“After all, I’m strong. I definitely need to settle this score with Lin Nuo,” Yu Sha chuckled coldly.

“What do you plan to do?”

“Right now, the Bloodwind Spirit has a very strong Blood Splitting Curse. We just can’t let it spread like before; otherwise, it’ll get fragmented. I don’t believe their medicine can still work.”

“Are you going to use it against Lin Nuo? There’s also that female doctor; I remember she was around during the Sacred Altar battle.”

“That female doctor is merely following Lin Nuo’s instructions; at the core, it’s still all about him.”

Yu Sha said,

“By the way, I need to draw him out; that would be to my advantage. Next, I need all the masters to set up a formation.”

Yu Sha began pondering a new strategy. Now that he had absorbed enough blood essence, it was crucial to confront Lin Nuo early.

If Lin Nuo remained, it would be a big headache later on; it was best to eliminate him while he had the chance after the blood essence absorption.

……

Lin Fei stormed back to the Lin family estate, filled with rage.

Now Lin Nuo was the city’s savior, earning the people’s admiration and praise while Lin Fei was only seen as a clown. The more he thought about slandering Lin Nuo, the more he faced public scorn.

Now, in his moment of anger, he tried to smear Lin Nuo, but his previously built good character crumbled into dust.

He was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Lin Nuo was basking in glory, and there was nothing he could do against that kid.

“Young Master, it’s time for dinner.”

“Dinner? Dinner? I’m not in the mood, get lost!”

Lin Fei grumbled angrily. Everyone was saying Lin Nuo was the hero for creating the antidote. Who knew if he’d orchestrated the whole thing? Maybe he released the curse himself, then subtly gave hints, saving everyone to gain fame?

Very possible! Who knows what disgusting schemes Lin Nuo had? Yet everyone was praising him, and no one cared to investigate the truth.

If he found evidence, he would absolutely ruin Lin Nuo’s reputation.

“Young Master.”

At that moment, a servant approached Lin Fei from behind.

“I said I’m not eating!”

Lin Fei snapped. The servant’s hand landed on his shoulder, and suddenly something seemed to invade his body. His vision turned white; consciousness began to fade…

……

Upon hearing the servant’s report, Xia Hanmo already knew the good news concerning the city and that her son Lin Nuo was the one who had eradicated the blood curse.

“Indeed! As long as Nuo’er is here, everything will be resolved!”

Xia Hanmo smiled in relief, eagerly wanting to celebrate with Lin Nuo and was about to rush out the door to find him.

However, she suddenly heard crashing noises from within the Lin family estate, accompanied by various spirit techniques and winds barreling her way.

What was going on?

Before she could react, wooden pillars in the corridor of the Lin family estate began collapsing rapidly.

Xia Hanmo reacted quickly and ran out of the corridor, stopping at an open area at the corridor’s edge, still unaware of the calamity unfolding.

At that moment, someone flew and crashed to the ground, severely injured. Gradually, Xia Hanmo spotted figures up ahead.

It was Lin Fei, the Lin family’s eldest son, engaged in combat with cultivators and immortals within the estate.

His strength had skyrocketed astonishingly; the cultivators were no match for him, and the immortals had depleted their magical energy in previous battles to save people, making them unable to withstand Lin Fei.

“Fei’er, what happened to you? Don’t harm my son!” Lin Yuan shouted, confused about why Lin Fei was attacking the cultivators.

Most cultivators had been afflicted by the Blood Splitting Curse and hadn’t fully recovered, struggling to deal with Lin Fei.

“What foul thing has possessed him? He’s lost all reason! Perhaps the cursed water source in the estate is to blame.”

One immortal said sternly,

“We must stop him.”

“High Immortal, stopping him is one thing, but please be gentle; he can’t take your hits!”

“We’ll find a way to restrain him.”

Having Lin Yuan’s orders, the immortals hesitated to strike hard, fearing they would kill Lin Fei, and tried to bind him with spirit techniques.

Yet it was unsuccessful, and Lin Fei broke through. The immortals, affected by the Blood Splitting Curse, had overwhelming cursed energy; their skins erupted, and blood began to flow.

Then, possessed by the Bloodwind Spirit, Lin Fei spotted Xia Hanmo on the open ground and dashed towards her, unleashing a palm infused with fierce cursed energy that struck her.

Before Xia Hanmo could react, she was hit by the cursed energy, afflicted by a severe Blood Splitting Curse, and her body showed the symptoms of splitting skin and bleeding.

Well, that’s about right.

The target was struck; their medicine would struggle to eliminate this intense Blood Splitting Curse, and under its influence, she would soon perish.

It hadn’t planned to take her life immediately, but the goal was to imbue her with a strong cursed energy, drawing Lin Nuo outside the city and ultimately trapping him to eliminate him.

Just as the Bloodwind Spirit was about to drag the fallen Xia Hanmo away, a shadow suddenly flew in and landed a punch on its face.

Bang!

The Lin family estate exploded a massive hole.
