"Such powerful sword intent! This, this is a Sword Domain!"
Elder Qingfeng's pupils contracted sharply. With a wave of his hand, he quickly retreated with the woman and the others.
Boom!
The next moment, the entire great hall collapsed with a roar. This commotion naturally drew attention from all sides. In an instant, countless figures appeared around Elder Qingfeng and the others.
"Elder Qingfeng, has something happened?" a middle-aged man asked, looking at the collapsed hall before cupping his hands towards Elder Qingfeng.
As he felt the gazes from all around, Elder Qingfeng cupped his fists and bowed, "I apologize for disturbing everyone. A disciple merely had an episode, there is no major harm."
The crowd exchanged glances and their expressions relaxed slightly. Soon, everyone bowed and turned to leave.
"His identity cannot be revealed for now. If the foreign races find out, with our sub-branch's strength, it would be difficult to guarantee his safety," Elder Qingfeng said in a low voice as the others departed.
Elder Mingyue and the others nodded in agreement. If the person inside was indeed related to the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House, then such an identity would be extremely significant. If the foreign races knew, they would undoubtedly send powerful experts.
At that time, not only Li Xuan might not be saved, but even the members of their sub-branch might not survive.
"The sword intent has vanished. Should we go in and take a look?" Steward Liu asked.
"Let's go in and see," Elder Qingfeng pondered for a moment and then nodded.
The next moment, several people entered the palace. As the dust settled, Li Xuan's figure reappeared in the eyes of Elder Qingfeng and the others.
Li Xuan was still sitting on the chair, his eyes slightly closed. His aura began to surge.
Seeing this, Elder Qingfeng waved his hand, and a barrier instantly enveloped them and Li Xuan.
"Steward Liu, please go outside and stand guard. No one is to approach the sub-branch," Elder Qingfeng instructed Steward Liu after the barrier was set up.
"Alright," Steward Liu glanced at Li Xuan, then moved and disappeared from his spot.
"Li Cong, Li Shang, you two escort the Young Lady and Young Master to their rooms," Elder Qingfeng then instructed Li Cong and Li Shang, who were standing beside the woman.
"Yes," Li Cong and Li Shang nodded. Their gazes then turned to the woman. Seeing this, she directly pulled the young man and turned to leave. Soon, only Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue remained in the hall.
"Let's guard him together. It looks like he's about to break through," Elder Qingfeng let out a long sigh.
Elder Mingyue nodded slightly. "This aura seems to be only breaking through to the Dao Domain. But the Young Lady said that this person killed a foreign race expert of the Dao Enlightenment realm with one hand. Could the Young Lady and the others have been mistaken?"
Elder Qingfeng gave a wry smile. "It shouldn't be a mistake."
"That sword intent just now was very sharp. If I'm not mistaken, he has likely mastered the Sword Domain," Elder Qingfeng added, looking at Elder Mingyue's furrowed brow.
Elder Mingyue's face immediately showed realization. Sword Domain protection clearly indicated that Li Xuan was a sword cultivator. The strength of sword cultivators inherently surpassed those of the same level, and their explosive power became even more terrifying as they progressed.
Fighting across levels was difficult for ordinary people, but for sword cultivators, it was a piece of cake. Moreover, the sword intent Li Xuan had unleashed just now made even Elder Mingyue feel a sense of threat.
Time slipped away quietly. In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
The debris around Li Xuan's body had long been cleared. Over these two days, the sword intent emanating from Li Xuan had grown stronger. Even Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue had retreated dozens of meters.
To the shock of Elder Mingyue and Elder Qingfeng, Li Xuan's aura continued to climb after breaking through to the early stage of the Dao Enlightenment realm. Although the speed of ascent had slowed, he had genuinely reached the middle stage of the Dao Enlightenment realm.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue would never have believed that someone could break through consecutively.
However, at this moment, they were both completely certain that Li Xuan's monstrous talent must be related to the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House. In fact, they had already concluded that Li Xuan was the son of the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House.
Elder Qingfeng, who had the fortune to meet the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House before, felt that Li Xuan looked more and more like they were carved from the same mold.
Boom!
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from Li Xuan's body. The next instant, Li Xuan's eyes snapped open.
This time, Li Xuan's eyes were piercingly sharp. A glint of light flashed from his eyes.
Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue both stood up, but they tacitly did not step forward immediately.
The sharp glint in Li Xuan's eyes gradually dissipated, and then returned to a state of calm. After a brief moment of confusion, Li Xuan's gaze gradually became clear.
Soon, a wry smile appeared on Li Xuan's lips.
"Senior, oh senior, that kick of yours almost got me killed."
Yellow-shirted woman: "..."
"Holy shit, Young Master, you've recovered your memories?" As soon as Li Xuan spoke, the Heavenly Dao Brush in the Prison of Suppression exclaimed in surprise.
"Doesn't it seem like a good thing that the owner has recovered his memories?" The Cang Ling Tower immediately retorted.
"The function of the Prison of Suppression is restored. It seems the Master has regained his memories," the Prison Spirit beside them said.
"Young master, have you recovered your memories?" Elder Qingfeng asked tentatively after hearing Li Xuan's words.
Li Xuan stood up and cupped his fists towards Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue, "I apologize for disturbing you two seniors. I have caused trouble for everyone, and I hope you can forgive me."
Li Xuan had indeed recovered his memories, and he naturally remembered what happened after he was kicked into the teleportation array by Liuli. He felt some remorse for destroying the palace.
Elder Qingfeng smiled and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. If it weren't for you, the Young Lady and the Young Master might not have arrived here safely. Speaking of which, we should be thanking you, young master."
Li Xuan smiled. He had a good impression of the woman and Li Shang. If it weren't for them, he might still be lying in the ruins right now. At least, he wouldn't have recovered so quickly.
Soon, as Elder Qingfeng removed the barrier, Steward Liu, the woman, and the others also entered the hall.
Li Xuan's thanks made Li Cong and Li Shang a bit embarrassed. Li Cong, in particular, felt considerable guilt, as he had almost ignored Li Xuan's fate initially.
"Young master, how did you get injured and end up in Black Wind Ridge in the borderlands?" Elder Qingfeng asked curiously after some pleasantries.
"So that's what it's called, Black Wind Ridge..." Li Xuan's heart stirred, and he gave a wry smile. "To be honest, I was sent here by a senior. I just didn't control it well, so there was a problem."
"Young master, are you from the outside world?" Elder Qingfeng and the others looked at Li Xuan in shock.
Li Xuan nodded slightly and said, "To be precise, I am from the Southern Region."
Elder Qingfeng and Elder Mingyue exchanged glances and nodded slightly.
At this moment, they were certain. This Li Xuan before them was definitely the son of the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House.
Because the owner of the Star Radiance Auction House also hailed from the Southern Region!
