Chapter 16: Complete Break Between the Protaganist and the Heroine, Ling Tian Imprisoned
Su Xuení had just left Lin Qi’an’s sleeping quarters when a bright flame suddenly appeared in front of her. She recognized this flame; it was part of Ling Tian’s technique! Her eyes narrowed, and a look of disgust appeared on her face. It was guiding her somewhere?
This Ling Tian was bold indeed. After making such a grave mistake, he still dared to hide within Tianchi Holy Land! Following the flame, Su Xuení arrived at a secluded woodshed. Pushing the door open, she found Ling Tian hiding inside.
“Xuení, you’re here!” Ling Tian quickly stepped forward, eyes filled with excitement. Xuení had come; she still cared about him!
“You acted on behalf of Tianchi Holy Land without permission and angered the Tai’an Royal Family’s Dragon Army. Do you realize the magnitude of your mistake?” Su Xuení’s gaze was icy, her tone devoid of warmth.
“I was trying to help you all!” Ling Tian felt as if he had been doused with cold water. He hadn’t expected Su Xuení to blame him instead of showing concern. His mood immediately turned heavy, and a hint of malevolence appeared in his eyes.
“Help us? If it weren’t for the Prince’s intervention, you would have harmed us.” Su Xuení looked at him and said, “My father has already expelled you from Tianchi Holy Land. From now on, you and I have nothing to do with each other. Leave.”
“Xuení! You…” Ling Tian felt as if he had been struck by lightning, stumbling and almost falling. “I treated you sincerely, I treated Tianchi Holy Land sincerely. Why did it come to this?”
“It’s all because of that damned Prince, it’s him…”
“Xuení, you must not stay by Lin Qi’an’s side. He’s a monster who eats people without spitting out the bones! Beiyang’s power is built on countless corpses!” Ling Tian clenched his fists, gritting his teeth, his eyes red with agitation.
During the ancient era of turmoil, countless forces competed for supremacy. Beiyang indeed built its dominance on the corpses of many. Without Beiyang, the continuous wars would have claimed even more lives!
Moreover, the Prince sincerely cared for her, giving her Heaven-tier techniques and Ice Qilin Essence Blood. No matter what others thought of him, Su Xuení was determined to repay him sincerely.
“Shut up! I know exactly what kind of person the Prince is. If you speak ill of him again, don’t blame me for being unkind!” Ling Tian’s face turned pale, his voice becoming hoarse.
“Today, even if I have to tie you up, I will take you away! One day, you will understand that I’m doing this for your own good.” As soon as he finished speaking, he activated the Nine Yang Profound Art, intending to use force.
Unexpectedly, he was repelled by a burst of cold air from Su Xuení.
“Someone come! Ling Tian has committed a grave crime against the Holy Land and attempted to abduct the Saintess. This is a serious offense. Imprison him in the dungeon!”
Several disciples and powerful elders of the Holy Land appeared behind her. Su Xuení had originally intended to show leniency due to their past camaraderie, but Ling Tian had gone too far.
“Xuení, you brought people with you to meet me…” Filled with resentment and heartbreak, Ling Tian coughed up blood.
“Take him away!”
The disciples swarmed forward, subduing Ling Tian and dragging him to the dungeon.
“Su Xuení, you will regret this, I swear!” Ling Tian’s shouts echoed behind them.
Regret? Why would she regret it? Why are you so ordinary yet so confident? Compared to the Prince, you’re not even worth mentioning.

?Ding! Ling Tian and Su Xuení have completely broken off, Luck Value -100, Host Villain Points +2000?
Hearing the system prompt, Lin Qi’an in his sleeping quarters pondered for a moment. Ling Tian’s Luck Value had now dropped to 400 (green). The complete break with Su Xuení and his expulsion from Tianchi Holy Land would no longer reduce his Luck Value.
The remaining Luck must be concentrated on his sword spirit master. From Aunt You’s reports, Lin Qi’an had a good understanding of the existence and weaknesses of this entity.
“An ancient divine spirit remnant soul, weakened by excessive use of power. As long as I can sow discord between them, Ling Tian’s Luck Value should plummet more.” Lin Qi’an opened the system shop, searching for what he needed.
?Three Elements Soul Condensation Elixir: 2000 Villain Points?
Effect: Can help remnant souls become more solid, restoring some soul power.
‘Heh, sowing discord with sweet words and gifts is most effective. There’s a saying, after all: The most touching thing is sincerity!’
Beiyang Tianjian City, gathering countless famous swords; the Nine Yang Divine Technique in Ling Tian’s possession should be quite nice?

Upon hearing that Ling Tian was still in the Holy Land, Su Yun was furious! This brat nearly ruined everything, and it was only thanks to the Prince that they avoided disaster.
He used to admire Ling Tian’s talent, thinking he could one day lead Tianchi Holy Land. But now, his daughter was favored by the Prince, securing their future. As for Ling Tian, whether he was exiled or executed was up to the Prince.
Currently, Ling Tian was imprisoned in a dark, damp dungeon, meditating to heal himself. Disheveled and in a sorry state, the Nine Yang Divine Technique was hidden in his brow, his last and only hope for a comeback.
“Ling Yu, Master, once you recover a bit, we can break through the restraints. A mere dungeon can’t hold me!”
No matter what happened, he knew that Ling Yu would always be with him. No one knew of Ling Yu’s existence. With her help, he still had a chance to turn things around!
Lost in thought, he suddenly saw a figure in a moon-white dress approaching.
“Xuení?” He called out, but the words stuck in his throat.
Beside Su Xuení was a handsome man in luxurious clothing. It was the Beiyang Prince, Lin Qi’an.
