If one lacked life force, then they would plunder the life force of others. This was the method that Yuan Huan had come up with to alleviate the situation.

"Impossible!" Lin Xiao immediately rejected the idea. If he continued to live on like this, then he might as well die.

Yuan You spread out his hands, indicating that this was the only solution he could think of. If you can't do anything to cultivators, you can choose a spirit beast. You can't die so easily, don't forget what you promised me.

In short, his mind was in a mess, and he didn't even know when he left the water realm. By the time he had reacted, he was already standing in the middle of the lake, with the lake water submerged behind his waist. Many people were taking pictures of him, pointing at him.

He took a deep breath to ease the turmoil in his heart, then turned around to leave, leaving the dripping water on his lower body.

Was there really no other way?

Lin Xiao gritted her teeth and took out her phone. She wanted to contact Zhuge Ce, but she remembered that she didn't have the latter's contact information. He found Zhuge Ce's contact information through Shi Que but couldn't get it.

For the past few days, he had been walking muddle-headedly, neither tired nor tired, with no clear direction. Sometimes he would walk to a city where ordinary people were tired, sometimes he would be treated as a beggar, sometimes he would go to a cultivator city, and under the disgusted gazes of passersby, he would walk aimlessly.

There were also people who recognized Lin Xiao and posted his photos online. Many people treated him as a joke and there were also people who felt sorry for him. A perfectly fine person was currently in such a state. Of course, there were still people who were taking actions.

Just as Lin Xiao arrived at an area that resembled a volcano, a sharp sword appeared in front of him. The sword's edge was as white as snow as it pierced towards Lin Xiao's head.

The originally dejected and lifeless Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly glowed with light. He did not know when the Divine King's sword had appeared in his hand, but he still managed to slice apart the figure in front of him that was sneakily attacking him.

The eyes of one of the black-clothed men were filled with disbelief and unwillingness as he slowly fell to the ground. Lin Xiao coldly squatted down and placed her palm on his chest. An invisible energy surged into Lin Xiao's body.

Lin Xiao tightly shut his eyes and took in a deep breath. As that surge of energy flowed into his body, the aura within his body actually began to rise.

"Since you want to kill me, then you should be prepared to be killed. Gabriella is infamous, and I can be considered as someone who has a clear conscience."

When Lin Xiao stood up again, his appearance had returned to his thirties. His temples were no longer gray, and only a calm expression was revealed on his face.

And at his feet, the killer had already turned into a mummy.

Lin Xiao lifted his head and surveyed his surroundings. This was the Earth King's Valley, he had actually unknowingly arrived at the Earth Demon Region.

Earth Demon Domain …

He thought of Mountain Phoenix City, where there was a colossal monster called the Thousand Goblins Court.

Counting the time, it was about time for the top ten competitors to leave Mountain Phoenix City. Their days of cultivation in the Immortal Spirit Pool and the cultivation grounds of the Lord Dragon Emperor were almost over.

Lin Xiao glanced at Wang Gu, his eyes shining with an indescribable light. If he wore the full face of the Human-faced Ghost Mage, would it be able to solve his problem?

In the next moment, he was shocked by his own thoughts. Not to mention whether he could solve the problem, whether he could wear the mask or not was still a big problem.

If his body was taken away by the soul inside the mask, then this body would no longer be him, and what difference would there be between this and death?

In the end, Lin Xiao didn't choose this path. However, the Earth King Valley was remembered in his heart. If he had to do it one day, why would he care so much?

Of course, survival was important. No matter what way one lived, who would want to die?

As she thought of this, Lin Xiao let out a sad laugh, her smile containing a hint of loneliness. He actually had the same thought as her.

In the end, Lin Xiao no longer paid any more visits. The result was the same. He headed straight back to the Dragon City, intentionally exposing his whereabouts along the way and also offending two of the Jade Descend Jiuyou's assassins. These two assassins were much stronger than the previous ones.

He tried his best to take care of the two killers and then absorb their life energy. Finally, he returned to his original appearance, and his body returned to its previous vitality. However, his life force was still being drained, and he knew that he would soon return to his old age.

Lin Xiao's mind was a bit unsteady. When he saw that his appearance had returned to how it was a moment ago, he almost had the thought of using the lives of others to prolong his life.

Lin Xiao had returned, and his appearance was that of a young man. This caused Ye Qing and Mu Qi to be wild with joy. The two of them thought that he had already found a way to resolve this issue.

Lin Xiao looked at the dark circles around Mu Qi and Ye Qing's eyes and opened his mouth slightly. In the end, he did not say anything and only smiled as he nodded his head.

"That's great, we finally settled it. Lin Xiao, how did you do it?" Mu Qi heaved a long sigh of relief as a long-awaited smile appeared on his face.

"I went to look for you."

"Ethereal Opening?" Ye Qing cried out, and she immediately understood that it was Ye You who had helped Lin Xiao. Ye Qing cried out, and she immediately understood that it was Ye You who had helped Lin Xiao.

After understanding the situation, the two girls breathed a sigh of relief. They bid Lin Xiao farewell and returned to their rooms to sleep. The two of them hadn't rested for the past few days, and the library was littered with ancient books. They were too lazy to clean it up.

After Lin Xiao tidied up the messy study room, she found a painting on the floor. It must have fallen out of the book bed.

It was a painting of a woman. The woman only had her back to him, and beneath her feet was a pill furnace.

The woman's back was very beautiful, but this cumbersome pill furnace was at the woman's feet. It seemed very out of place, affecting her beauty.

He put the painting back on the shelf. At that moment, his cell phone rang. It was a call from a monster box.

Shi Que's voice immediately sounded from his phone. It was the first time he had heard Shi Que's voice sounding so anxious.

"Lin Xiao, did you see the official news?"

Official news? Lin Xiao thought for a moment. Didn't the official news just send out the results of the competition and a ranking for the smelting trial? Was this worthy of Shi Que's worry?

He quickly realized that Shi Que was referring to a new development. It seemed like the authorities had released a new development not too long ago and it was related to him. Otherwise, Shi Que wouldn't have informed him so quickly.

After knowing that Lin Xiao hadn't looked yet, Shi Que said, "Hurry up and take a look. I'll wait for your news."

With that, he ended the call, not wanting to waste any of Lin Xiao's time. Shi Que's actions aroused his curiosity.

He tapped open the demon box. The hottest event was actually the one that stood up for him. The other users had added him to the hottest list. He did not know whether to laugh or cry.

Thinking of this, he suddenly sensed something. Could it be that the movements in the Thousand Monster Court were related to this?

The next page was filled with updates from the government. In just ten minutes, it had been forwarded more than a thousand times.

As for the title, it caused Lin Xiao to be dumbstruck. After a long time, he still hadn't recovered from his shock. He had been charged with a heinous crime by the Thousand Monster Court.

"Xiu Si Lin Xiao coveted the dragon clan's treasure and was forced to hand it over because of a warning. Such actions are disrespectful to the dragon clan."
