Chapter 326 Two Goals Achieved at Once

The huge platform was crowded with people. In addition to those who were practicing or studying, there were also many disciples coming and going on it. But at this moment, almost all the disciples stopped what they were doing, staring at the same place in surprise or confusion, whispering to each other, and at the intersection of their lines of sight, a figure in gray clothes climbed the stairs and stepped onto the platform.

He was a well-built man with unkempt hair hanging down his back, looking a little messy. Although his appearance was ordinary, he was still pleasing to the eye. The most eye-catching thing about his body was the huge black sword on his back. It was not only incredibly thick but also estimated to be five feet long. No one knew why it was not put into the storage bag.

【Name: Wang Yan】

【Sex: Male】

[Identity: Disciple of Dao Zong Tian Temple]

【Cultivation: Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm】

Feeling the aura from the other party that was incompatible with Dao Zong, looking at the cold and serious face, Lin Changqiang silently withdrew his gaze.

"Who is he?"

"Wang Yan."

Ying Huanhuan's expression was a little complicated, and her voice, which was always full of energy, became a little low. It was the first time that Lin Changqiang saw her like this after knowing her for so long.

"In the last sect competition, the original senior sister of Tiandian was killed by Yuanmen, and Senior Brother Wang Yan is her only brother."

"After the competition, Senior Brother Wang Yan suffered a great blow. He shouted every day that he wanted Yuanmen to pay the price. However, for countless years, revenge has never been allowed for what happened during the sect competition. This is a rule jointly set by the eight major sects. Even if revenge must be sought, it can only be done secretly. How can revenge be sought openly? Therefore, Dad suppressed the matter."

"Senior Brother Wang Yan was still very angry at the time and naturally didn't care about these things. He rushed into the meeting room and yelled at Dad. Dad didn't blame him out of guilt, but the Lord of the Heavenly Palace still put him in solitary confinement for a period of time afterwards."

"After the confinement ended, he was in a daze for a long time. He closed himself off for half a year and then left the sect. In the past few years, every time there was news, it was that he had killed someone from the Yuan Sect and was wanted. Regarding the Yuan Sect's pursuit, Dad sent many people to secretly protect him and even intervene, but Senior Brother Wang Yan may not know this."

"Is that so..." Lin Changqiang nodded and sighed unconsciously in his heart.

It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge, this is a truth that everyone understands, but if you put yourself in their shoes, how many people can ensure that they will always remain calm?

"Senior Brother Wang Yan has not returned to the sect in these years, but now he is here."

"Is it because of the palace examination?"

"To be precise, it's because of the sect competition after the palace examination." Ying Huanhuan clenched her hands together, with a hint of worry on her face.

"The first place winner of the palace examination has the right to command the participating disciples during the sect competition. Senior Brother Wang Yan is likely to come back this time to lead the participating disciples to fight against the Yuan Sect. Given his personality, he will definitely choose a method that can kill more Yuan Sect disciples, rather than a method that allows more Dao Sect disciples to survive."

As if she had thought of that scene, Ying Huanhuan's expression was anxious and helpless, completely different from her usual demeanor. Her watery eyes looked as if she was about to cry, which made Lin Changqiang feel as if his heart was tightened.

"Don't worry." He rubbed the girl's head with pity, and when she looked at him, a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "In this sect competition, I will not only bring back all the participating disciples, but also make Yuanmen pay the price they deserve." Feeling the faint warmth coming from above her head, Ying Huanhuan was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face turned red, and she quickly pushed Lin Changqiang's right hand away. She stared at the latter with wide eyes in disbelief, but her originally depressed mood was swept away, and her heart was even beating rapidly.

"you!"

The girl gritted her teeth, as if she was a little anxious, but Lin Changqiang's smile did not fade at all: "This palace examination is a deal between you and me. I will help Sister Xiaoxiao win the command of the competition, and you play a song for me. How about it?"

Seeing the confident expression on the other person's face, Ying Huanhuan couldn't help but be moved.

Is there such a good thing?

"It's a deal?"

She tentatively stretched out her little finger, and Lin Changqiang saw it and just made a hook.

"It's a word."

"Hmph." After quickly retracting her fingers, Ying Huanhuan snorted softly as if she wanted to say something harsh, but seeing Lin Changqiang's smug expression, her pretty face flushed again. She lowered her head shyly, and her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, "If you can't get the command, you'll be in trouble!"

Before she finished speaking, she left in a hurry, attracting many disciples' puzzled looks. After seeing Lin Changqiang and Ying Huanhuan flying away, they became even more curious. However, Lin Changqiang just nodded calmly, then ignored their looks and used teleportation to leave here...

In the next two days, Lin Changqiang continued his training as usual, without fail. However, the story about Wang Yan quickly spread within the sect, sparking quite a bit of heated discussion.

Many disciples just sighed and then stopped caring, but those disciples who were going to participate in the sect competition couldn't help but feel more worried. They knew very well why Wang Yan, who had been away for many years, suddenly came back.

Compared with the heated discussions among the disciples, the top leaders of Dao Sect all remained silent, and no one even went to inquire. After all, Wang Yan's sister was surrounded and killed by Yuan Sect in order to protect other disciples. They all felt guilty about it, so even though they knew Wang Yan's purpose, they could not bear to cancel his entry into the competition.

Wang Yan himself never appeared again after returning to the sect, nor did he visit his former friends. He just stayed indoors on his own mountain, waiting for the palace examination.

Two days passed quietly in this slightly depressing atmosphere, and the day of the palace examination finally arrived. Dao Zong was excited again, and Lin Changqiang pushed open the door and walked out of his house. The warm sunshine poured on his body, making him feel comfortable.

After stretching his muscles, he suddenly felt refreshed. He did not delay any longer and teleported to Lin Dong's home with a flash of golden light. He then went to the central part of Dao Sect with Lin Dong, who had been waiting for a long time.

The central part of Dao Zong is a stretch of continuous mountain ranges with giant peaks rising into the sky. However, at this moment, bursts of noise and bustle were coming from these originally quiet mountains.

When the two arrived here, even the relatively calm Lin Dong couldn't help but frown. Lin Changqiang directly used his Yuan power to block out the sound, and then fell towards the largest hill below.

Due to the astonishing number of disciples taking part in the palace examination, many competition venues have been set up on several nearby giant peaks, but the most eye-catching and the one with the largest number of people is the one in the center, because the most outstanding disciples from the four palaces will take the palace examination here!
