### Chapter 2841 — A Walk Through the Ancient Evil God Sect
Yang Lin calmly walked through the Ancient Evil God Sect with Xu BaiLing.
The night had not yet arrived.
Golden sunlight spread across the distant mountains, illuminating the countless floating peaks surrounding the sect.
Immortal clouds drifted between the mountains, while waterfalls descended from the distant cliffs.
Xu BaiLing quietly walked beside Yang Lin.
Her long, dark hair moved gently in the breeze, and her white robes flowed behind her.
She looked around at the scenery.
The Ancient Evil God Sect was enormous.
Countless mountain peaks floated in the sky, while ancient palaces stood among the clouds.
Yang Lin calmly walked past several cultivation pavilions.
The first was the Immortal Scripture Pavilion.
Its enormous structure stood atop a floating mountain, with countless floors extending into the clouds. Powerful formations surrounded the pavilion, protecting the cultivation techniques and ancient scriptures stored inside.
Several cultivators entered and exited the building.
Some carried jade slips, while others discussed the cultivation methods they had just studied.
Yang Lin glanced at the pavilion.
Then he continued walking.
Xu BaiLing followed him.
She did not ask any questions.
She had many things she wanted to know.
Who exactly was Yang Lin?
How had he entered the Icy Region so easily?
How had he suppressed her cultivation without damaging her foundation?
And how had he created things from Nothingness without using even a trace of Qi?
However, she kept those questions to herself for now.
She had only recently escaped from the Icy Pillar Tower after millions of years of isolation.
She did not want to spend this time asking questions.
Instead, she wanted to experience the Lower Realm again.
Yang Lin understood that she had questions about him.
He also knew that he could not properly describe himself through ordinary words.
Even the word limits was merely a word.
It could not define him.
He could explain a few things about himself, but those explanations would never truly describe what he was.
Since Xu BaiLing had not asked, Yang Lin did not say anything.
He simply continued walking beside her.
They soon arrived at the Immortal Alchemy Pavilion.
The enormous pavilion stood between several floating mountains, surrounded by medicinal gardens.
Rows of ancient trees grew around the building, their branches carrying countless Immortal fruits.
Inside the pavilion, alchemists worked with medicinal ingredients and Immortal flames.
Some were refining pills inside enormous furnaces, while others carefully examined medicinal herbs.
Occasionally, a faint medicinal fragrance drifted out of the pavilion.
Xu BaiLing quietly observed the scene.
She was not surprised by the alchemists or the Immortal furnaces.
She had seen far more extraordinary things in the Immortal Realm.
However, she was happy to see the Lower Realm again.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
Then he continued walking.
They passed the Weapon Refining Pavilion, where numerous cultivators refined swords, spears, sabers, and other weapons.
Powerful flames burned beneath enormous furnaces.
Hammer strikes echoed through the pavilion, while refined weapons released faint fluctuations of Immortal Qi.
Further ahead stood the Array Formation Pavilion.
Its enormous doors were engraved with countless formation patterns.
Several formations floated above the surrounding mountain peaks, creating layers of defensive barriers and intricate spatial structures.
Cultivators sat inside separate chambers, studying formations and discussing their arrangements.
Xu BaiLing quietly watched them.
Her expression was peaceful.
She was not interested in comparing the Lower Realm with the Immortal Realm.
She simply enjoyed seeing these familiar cultivation scenes again.
Yang Lin calmly glanced at her.
Then he asked, "Enjoying yourself?"
Xu BaiLing turned toward him.
A bright smile appeared on her face.
"Yes."
Her answer was simple.
But her expression had changed considerably since the moment Yang Lin had brought her out of the Icy Region.
The gloomy loneliness that had lingered in her eyes had gradually faded.
Her face appeared brighter, and her smile came more naturally.
For millions of years, she had remained isolated inside the Icy Pillar Tower.
Now, she could walk through cultivation pavilions, watch alchemists refine pills, and listen to the sounds of weapon refining.
These were ordinary scenes for many cultivators.
To Xu BaiLing, they were precious experiences.
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"That's good."
The two continued walking.
They passed the Immortal Treasure Pavilion, the Sword Dao Pavilion, the Cultivation Scripture Pavilion, and several training grounds.
At the training grounds, young cultivators practiced sword techniques beneath the supervision of their elders.
Some trained their bodies, while others controlled flying swords or practiced movement techniques.
Occasionally, their instructors corrected their movements.
Xu BaiLing quietly watched them.
A faint smile remained on her face.
Yang Lin walked beside her without saying much.
He did not rush her.
He did not explain every pavilion they passed.
He simply allowed her to look around at her own pace.
After a while, the sunlight began to soften.
The two arrived at a high mountain overlooking the surrounding landscape.
Yang Lin calmly stopped.
Xu BaiLing stopped beside him.
Before them, the setting sun slowly descended toward the distant horizon.
Golden light spread across the clouds, painting the sky in shades of orange, red, and gold.
The floating mountains were illuminated by the sunset.
The waterfalls reflected the fading sunlight, and the Immortal clouds appeared to glow.
Yang Lin calmly watched the setting sun.
After a moment, he spoke.
"It's been a while since you've seen a sunset like this, hasn't it?"
Xu BaiLing turned toward him.
Then she looked at the horizon again.
A bright smile appeared on her face.
"I've never seen such a beautiful sunset before."
Her eyes reflected the golden light.
For a brief moment, the loneliness of millions of years seemed distant.
Yang Lin calmly looked at the setting sun.
"Now you have."
Xu BaiLing quietly nodded.
"Yes."
She continued watching the sunset.
Yang Lin stood beside her.
Neither of them spoke for a while.
The sun slowly descended beyond the distant mountains.
And for Xu BaiLing, the simple sight of a sunset became a memory she would treasure.
### Chapter 2842 — The Sunset Xu BaiLing Had Never Seen
The setting sun slowly descended toward the horizon.
Golden light spread across the vast sky.
The clouds seemed to burn with soft orange and red colors, while the distant floating mountains were covered in a golden glow.
Xu BaiLing stood beside Yang Lin.
Her long, dark hair flowed gently behind her.
She quietly watched the scenery, and the smile on her face did not disappear.
For millions of years, she had remained inside the Icy Pillar Tower.
Although the tower had its own extraordinary scenery, it could never replace the world outside.
She had watched countless years pass.
She had cultivated alone.
She had waited for the day she could leave.
Eventually, she had almost accepted that she might remain trapped until she broke through to the next realm.
Yet Yang Lin had appeared.
He had crossed the restrictions, entered the Icy Region, and brought her away.
He had done everything so casually that she still found it difficult to believe.
Now, she was standing beside him, watching a sunset.
Xu BaiLing's smile grew slightly brighter.
Yang Lin noticed her expression.
He calmly looked toward the horizon again.
He understood that she had many questions about him.
However, he could not describe himself through words.
The word powerful was insufficient.
The word limitless was also insufficient.
Even words that seemed to describe something beyond all boundaries remained words with meanings.
And meanings could not properly define Yang Lin.
He could explain that he was the Lord of Nothingness.
He could say that he controlled Nothingness.
But those statements would still be incomplete.
There were things he could explain, but the explanations would never be the whole truth.
Xu BaiLing had not asked him anything.
Therefore, Yang Lin did not volunteer an explanation.
He simply stood beside her.
After a while, Xu BaiLing turned her head.
"Yang Lin."
Yang Lin calmly looked at her.
"What is it?"
Xu BaiLing hesitated briefly.
Then she smiled.
"Nothing. I just wanted to call you."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
Xu BaiLing turned back toward the sunset.
Her expression remained bright.
Yang Lin did not tease her.
He simply continued watching the horizon.
The last rays of sunlight slowly disappeared.
The sky gradually darkened, and the first stars appeared above the distant mountains.
Xu BaiLing watched until the sun had completely vanished.
Then she quietly exhaled.
"Beautiful."
Yang Lin calmly replied, "Not bad."
Xu BaiLing turned toward him.
She looked at his calm expression.
For a moment, she almost laughed.
He had just stood beside her while she watched a sunset she considered the most beautiful she had ever seen.
Yet his only comment was not bad.
Still, she did not find his reaction unpleasant.
Instead, she smiled.
"Your standards must be very high."
Yang Lin calmly looked at her.
"Perhaps."
Xu BaiLing shook her head with a faint smile.
She did not ask what he meant.
The two eventually left the mountain.
They continued walking through the Ancient Evil God Sect as night approached.
They passed a wide Immortal River that flowed between several floating peaks.
The river's surface reflected the stars, and countless Immortal fish swam beneath the clear water.
Further ahead, they passed a pavilion dedicated to sword cultivation.
Several disciples were practicing their sword techniques under the moonlight.
Their sword lights crossed the air, creating brilliant streaks of light.
Yang Lin glanced at them briefly.
Xu BaiLing watched with a peaceful expression.
They then passed another mountain where cultivators were practicing spatial formations.
Circular patterns appeared in the air, connecting distant locations through controlled spatial fluctuations.
Nearby, a group of alchemists was returning from the medicinal gardens, carrying baskets of Immortal herbs.
The sect remained active even after sunset.
Xu BaiLing enjoyed every moment.
She did not ask Yang Lin how he had rescued her.
She did not ask who he truly was.
She did not ask why the Heavenly Law had been so frightened of him.
Those questions remained in her heart.
For now, she wanted to enjoy the world she had finally regained.
Yang Lin calmly walked beside her.
He understood.
And he said nothing.
### Chapter 2843 — The Ancient Evil God Sect at Night
Night had completely fallen over the Ancient Evil God Sect.
Countless stars shone above the floating mountains.
Immortal clouds drifted through the valleys, while waterfalls reflected the moonlight.
Lanterns illuminated the pathways connecting the cultivation pavilions.
Yang Lin calmly walked beside Xu BaiLing.
They passed a long stone path that connected several floating mountains.
On both sides of the path stood ancient trees whose leaves emitted a faint silver glow.
Further ahead was the Immortal Beast Pavilion.
It was a vast area where numerous Immortal beasts lived and rested.
Some beasts lay beneath ancient trees.
Others walked through the mountain forests, while several flew across the sky.
Xu BaiLing calmly watched them.
She had seen countless Immortal beasts before, but she was still happy to experience the Lower Realm again.
Yang Lin did not explain anything.
He simply continued walking.
They then passed the Time Cultivation Tower.
The enormous tower rose above the surrounding mountains, with a thousand floors extending toward the sky.
Each floor contained a different cultivation environment, and the flow of time could be adjusted through its formations.
Some disciples entered the tower to cultivate.
Others emerged after completing their training.
Xu BaiLing glanced toward the tower.
She recognized the concept of time cultivation, but she did not ask about the formations.
She had already decided that she would not spend the entire evening questioning Yang Lin.
Instead, she wanted to enjoy the scenery.
The two continued walking.
They passed the Immortal Library, the Spirit Herb Pavilion, the Artifact Refining Hall, and the Formation Research Pavilion.
Everywhere they went, cultivators were busy with their own affairs.
Some cultivated.
Some studied.
Some practiced techniques.
Others gathered with their fellow disciples to discuss their experiences.
The Ancient Evil God Sect felt peaceful.
Xu BaiLing's expression remained bright.
She had spent millions of years surrounded by silence.
Now, the sounds of cultivation and conversation seemed especially pleasant.
After a while, Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
"Enjoying yourself?"
Xu BaiLing nodded.
"Yes."
She smiled.
"Very much."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"That's good."
They continued walking until they reached a mountain overlooking the central area of the sect.
From there, the countless floating mountains and cultivation pavilions were visible beneath the night sky.
Xu BaiLing stopped and looked at the scenery.
The lights of the Ancient Evil God Sect stretched across the distant mountains.
It was a magnificent sight.
She remained silent for a while.
Then she turned toward Yang Lin.
"Thank you for bringing me here."
Yang Lin calmly looked at her.
"Nothing much."
Xu BaiLing smiled.
She no longer found his answer surprising.
After a moment, she looked toward the main hall in the distance.
"Should we return?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Sure."
The two began walking back.
They passed the Array Formation Pavilion once more.
Several cultivators were still studying inside.
Then they passed the Weapon Refining Pavilion, where the sound of hammer strikes continued to echo through the night.
Xu BaiLing glanced toward the alchemy gardens.
The faint fragrance of medicinal herbs drifted through the air.
She took a quiet breath.
Her expression was peaceful.
Yang Lin calmly walked beside her.
He did not ask whether she was tired.
He already knew she could continue walking if she wanted to.
Eventually, the main hall appeared before them.
Yang Lin and Xu BaiLing calmly approached the entrance.
Then they entered.
### Chapter 2844 — Returning to the Main Hall
Inside the main hall of the Ancient Evil God Sect—
Moon Demon Fairy, Gu Yi Longshu, Chaoran Zhi Quan, and Yu Luhan were seated.
They had been discussing various matters while waiting for Yang Lin and Xu BaiLing to return.
When the two entered, Moon Demon Fairy looked toward them.
"You're back."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yes."
Xu BaiLing smiled faintly.
"We're back."
Yang Lin and Xu BaiLing walked toward their seats.
Chaoran Zhi Quan was seated to Yang Lin's left, while Xu BaiLing sat to his right.
Moon Demon Fairy and Gu Yi Longshu sat opposite them.
Yu Luhan remained beside Chaoran Zhi Quan.
Everyone settled into their seats.
Gu Yi Longshu looked toward Xu BaiLing.
"Did you enjoy yourself?"
Xu BaiLing calmly nodded.
"Yes. Thank you."
Gu Yi Longshu smiled.
"No need to thank me for asking."
Xu BaiLing smiled back.
"Alright."
Gu Yi Longshu's expression remained warm.
She was pleased to see that Xu BaiLing looked happier than she had earlier.
The gloomy expression that had once lingered in Xu BaiLing's eyes had faded considerably.
Now, she seemed more relaxed.
Moon Demon Fairy also noticed the change.
She smiled faintly but did not comment.
Chaoran Zhi Quan looked toward Xu BaiLing.
"Did you see many places?"
Xu BaiLing nodded.
"Yes. We walked past the Immortal Scripture Pavilion, the Alchemy Pavilion, the Weapon Refining Pavilion, and several others."
Chaoran Zhi Quan smiled.
"There's still much more to see."
Xu BaiLing nodded.
"I'll take my time."
Yang Lin calmly sat beside them.
He did not add anything.
After a moment, Yu Luhan turned toward him.
"Yang Lin, I have something I've been wondering about."
Yang Lin calmly looked at him.
"What is it?"
Yu Luhan leaned forward slightly.
"How did you enter the Icy Region?"
The main hall became quiet.
Yu Luhan continued.
"Are you really just an Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak cultivator?"
His expression was serious.
Moon Demon Fairy looked toward Yang Lin.
Gu Yi Longshu also turned her attention to him.
Chaoran Zhi Quan stopped moving.
Xu BaiLing quietly looked at Yang Lin.
Although she had not asked him the same question herself, she was also curious about his answer.
Everyone waited.
Yang Lin calmly replied, "Yes."
Yu Luhan blinked.
Yang Lin continued in the same calm voice.
"That's my real cultivation. I'm not hiding anything. I'm just an Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak cultivator."
Silence filled the main hall.
Yu Luhan stared at him.
Moon Demon Fairy's eyes widened slightly.
Gu Yi Longshu was speechless.
Chaoran Zhi Quan looked at Yang Lin as though she had heard something unbelievable.
Xu BaiLing also stared at him.
For a moment, nobody said anything.
An Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak cultivator had entered the Icy Region without resistance.
He had crossed restrictions that even Transcendence Realm cultivators could not overcome.
He had reached the Icy Pillar Tower, rescued a woman from the Immortal Realm, suppressed her cultivation without damaging her foundation, and brought her out.
Yet he was claiming that his cultivation was genuinely only at the Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak.
And he was not hiding anything.
Yu Luhan finally opened his mouth.
"Then..."
He stopped.
He did not know how to finish his question.
Moon Demon Fairy slowly turned toward Yang Lin.
"Then how did you enter the Icy Region?"
Her voice was calm, but her expression showed genuine confusion.
Gu Yi Longshu also looked at him.
She had the same question.
Chaoran Zhi Quan remained silent.
Xu BaiLing quietly watched Yang Lin.
Yang Lin calmly leaned back in his seat.
"You'll know soon."
Everyone became quiet again.
### Chapter 2845 — The Question No One Could Answer
The main hall of the Ancient Evil God Sect remained silent.
Yu Luhan was still staring at Yang Lin.
Moon Demon Fairy's expression was thoughtful.
Gu Yi Longshu had not looked away from him.
Chaoran Zhi Quan sat quietly beside Yang Lin, while Xu BaiLing watched him from the other side.
Everyone had heard his answer.
Yang Lin was genuinely an Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak cultivator.
He was not hiding his cultivation.
He had said so calmly and directly.
Yet the answer only created more questions.
Moon Demon Fairy looked toward him.
She had already guessed that there was something unusual about Yang Lin.
However, she had asked the question to confirm her understanding.
Now, she knew that her guess had not been wrong.
There was something about Yang Lin that could not be explained through ordinary cultivation realms.
Gu Yi Longshu was similarly confused.
She was one of the Twelve Pillar Gods.
She understood the cultivation system of the Lower Realm better than most cultivators.
Yet she could not understand how an Immortal Emperor Realm Supreme Peak cultivator could enter the Icy Region without being affected by its restrictions.
Yu Luhan finally recovered from his shock.
He looked toward Yang Lin.
"Then what exactly are you?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan immediately turned toward him.
"Yu Luhan."
She gave him a warning look.
Yu Luhan paused.
Then he realized how his question sounded.
He quietly cleared his throat.
"I mean... I don't understand how your cultivation works."
Yang Lin calmly looked at him.
"It's fine."
Yu Luhan waited.
Yang Lin did not say anything else.
Yu Luhan's expression became complicated.
He had asked a question and received an answer.
But somehow, he understood even less than before.
Moon Demon Fairy looked toward Yang Lin.
"Yang Lin, you said we'll know soon."
Yang Lin nodded.
"Yes."
"Does that mean you're going to explain it?"
Yang Lin calmly replied, "Something like that."
Moon Demon Fairy stared at him.
Gu Yi Longshu slowly exhaled.
Chaoran Zhi Quan covered her mouth to hide her amusement.
Xu BaiLing looked at Yang Lin.
She remembered his earlier words.
He had told her that he was an Immortal Emperor Supreme Peak cultivator from the Central Region of the Central Domain.
He had also said that he was not from Rui Star.
At the time, she had found his introduction difficult to believe.
Now, she was even more shocked.
She had seen the Immortal Realm Heavenly Law become frightened of him.
She had seen him suppress her cultivation with no visible action.
And she had watched him create everything from Nothingness.
Yet he continued to describe himself using the same ordinary cultivation realm.
Xu BaiLing quietly lowered her gaze.
She still had questions.
But she decided to wait.
Yang Lin calmly looked around at everyone.
"Come to my sect in a month."
Moon Demon Fairy looked at him.
"Your sect?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"The Heaven Cutter Sect."
Gu Yi Longshu's expression changed slightly.
Chaoran Zhi Quan sat up straighter.
Yu Luhan's eyes widened.
Xu BaiLing looked toward Yang Lin.
Yang Lin continued.
"In a month, I'll tell you things that even the entire Immortal Realm hasn't heard."
The main hall became completely silent.
Yu Luhan stared at him in shock.
Chaoran Zhi Quan was speechless.
Moon Demon Fairy's expression became serious.
Gu Yi Longshu looked at Yang Lin with an unusual intensity.
Even Xu BaiLing was shocked.
She had come from the Immortal Realm.
She knew that the Immortal Realm contained extraordinary secrets and knowledge accumulated over countless eras.
Yet Yang Lin was saying that he would tell them things the entire Immortal Realm had never heard.
He spoke as though it were an ordinary promise.
Xu BaiLing remembered his earlier words.
He had told her that he was not from Rui Star.
At the time, she had simply accepted the statement without asking further questions.
Now, she wondered how much more there was to his identity.
Yang Lin calmly looked at everyone.
"One month."
He paused.
"Come if you want to know."
### Chapter 2846 — One Month Later
The main hall remained silent after Yang Lin finished speaking.
Moon Demon Fairy looked at him for a long moment.
Then she slowly nodded.
"Alright. I'll come."
Gu Yi Longshu smiled faintly.
"I'll come as well."
Chaoran Zhi Quan looked toward Yang Lin.
"Of course I'll come."
Yu Luhan was still shocked.
He had never expected that an ordinary question about the Icy Region would lead to an invitation to hear secrets that even the entire Immortal Realm had never heard.
He finally nodded.
"I'm coming too."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
Xu BaiLing quietly looked toward him.
She did not say anything immediately.
After a moment, Yang Lin turned toward her.
"Are you coming?"
Xu BaiLing blinked.
Then she smiled.
"Of course."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Good."
Moon Demon Fairy looked between them.
She had noticed that Xu BaiLing's expression became brighter whenever she spoke with Yang Lin.
However, she did not comment on it.
Gu Yi Longshu also noticed.
She quietly smiled.
Chaoran Zhi Quan glanced toward Yang Lin, then toward Xu BaiLing.
Her expression became thoughtful for a moment.
Yu Luhan, however, was still thinking about the promised explanation.
He looked toward Yang Lin.
"Can I ask one more question?"
Yang Lin calmly replied, "You can ask."
Yu Luhan hesitated.
"Will the things you explain be related to your cultivation?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Some of them."
Yu Luhan waited for more.
Yang Lin did not continue.
Yu Luhan sighed inwardly.
He was beginning to understand that Yang Lin would reveal information only when he felt like it.
Asking more questions would probably not change that.
Moon Demon Fairy folded her hands.
"Then we'll wait for a month."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Sure."
The conversation gradually shifted to other matters.
Gu Yi Longshu asked Xu BaiLing about her plans for the coming days.
Xu BaiLing explained that she wanted to remain in the Lower Realm for a while and see more of its cultivation lands.
Moon Demon Fairy welcomed the idea.
"You can stay here as long as you like."
Xu BaiLing smiled.
"Thank you."
Gu Yi Longshu smiled as well.
"There is no need to be so formal."
Xu BaiLing nodded.
The atmosphere became peaceful again.
Outside the main hall, the night continued.
Cultivators moved through the Ancient Evil God Sect, and the lights of the distant pavilions illuminated the floating mountains.
Yang Lin calmly sat on his seat.
He had made an appointment with the others.
In one month, they would visit the Heaven Cutter Sect.
He would tell them things that the Immortal Realm had never heard.
Yet Yang Lin did not seem particularly interested in the matter.
To him, the coming month was simply another month.
### Chapter 2847 — The Night Deepens
Night continued to deepen over the Ancient Evil God Sect.
Moon Demon Fairy and Gu Yi Longshu discussed the upcoming visit to the Heaven Cutter Sect.
Chaoran Zhi Quan sat quietly beside Yang Lin.
Yu Luhan remained thoughtful.
Xu BaiLing listened to the conversation.
The invitation had surprised everyone, but none of them intended to miss it.
After all, Yang Lin had promised to reveal information that even the Immortal Realm had never heard.
They could not imagine what he intended to explain.
Yet they knew one thing.
Yang Lin had never seemed concerned about whether others believed him.
He simply said what he wanted to say.
After a while, Moon Demon Fairy looked toward Xu BaiLing.
"Do you intend to remain in the Ancient Evil God Sect tonight?"
Xu BaiLing paused.
She had not considered where she would stay.
Before she could answer, Yang Lin calmly stood up.
"It's getting late."
Everyone looked toward him.
Yang Lin continued.
"I'll show Xu BaiLing her private courtyard."
Xu BaiLing looked at him.
Then she smiled.
"Thank you."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Nothing much."
Chaoran Zhi Quan immediately lowered her head to hide a smile.
Moon Demon Fairy looked at Gu Yi Longshu.
Gu Yi Longshu smiled faintly.
Yu Luhan glanced between Yang Lin and Xu BaiLing.
He seemed to have realized something.
Yang Lin was going to arrange a place for Xu BaiLing to stay.
It was an ordinary action.
However, the woman in question was someone Yang Lin had rescued from the Icy Pillar Tower after millions of years.
She had come from the Immortal Realm.
She had reached the peak of the Transcendence Realm Perfection Late Stage.
And she was now staying in the Ancient Evil God Sect because Yang Lin had brought her there.
Yu Luhan could not help feeling that the situation was extraordinary.
Xu BaiLing stood up.
Yang Lin calmly walked toward the doorway.
She followed him.
Before leaving, Xu BaiLing turned toward the others.
"Good night."
Moon Demon Fairy smiled.
"Good night."
Gu Yi Longshu nodded.
"Rest well."
Chaoran Zhi Quan waved at her.
"See you tomorrow."
Yu Luhan nodded.
Xu BaiLing smiled and followed Yang Lin outside.
The two walked through the quiet pathways of the sect.
Moonlight illuminated the ancient trees, while the distant floating mountains stood beneath the stars.
Yang Lin calmly led Xu BaiLing toward a cluster of private courtyards.
Several courtyards stood among the mountains, each surrounded by its own formation.
They were peaceful and spacious, designed for cultivators who wanted privacy.
Yang Lin stopped before one of them.
He calmly looked toward Xu BaiLing.
"This is yours."
Xu BaiLing looked at the courtyard.
Then she turned toward him.
### Chapter 2848 — Xu BaiLing's Private Courtyard
The private courtyard stood on a quiet mountain near the main hall of the Ancient Evil God Sect.
Ancient trees surrounded the courtyard, and a clear stream flowed nearby.
The moonlight fell across the tiled roof and the stone pathway leading to the entrance.
A faint formation covered the courtyard, protecting it from outside disturbances.
Yang Lin calmly stood beside Xu BaiLing.
"This is your private courtyard."
Xu BaiLing looked around.
The courtyard was spacious.
An elegant main residence stood at its center, with several smaller buildings arranged around a peaceful garden.
A cultivation chamber was located at the rear.
Nearby stood a pavilion overlooking the stream.
The courtyard was close to the private courtyards of Yang Lin, Chaoran Zhi Quan, and Yu Luhan.
Xu BaiLing calmly examined the surroundings.
Then she smiled brightly.
"Thank you. This is great."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Rest if you want. Cultivate if you want."
Xu BaiLing turned toward him.
Her smile became warmer.
"Alright. I think I'll cultivate for a while."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Sure."
Xu BaiLing looked toward the courtyard again.
She was pleased with the arrangement.
After millions of years inside the Icy Pillar Tower, she finally had a place where she could live freely.
She could rest whenever she wanted.
She could cultivate whenever she wanted.
She could leave the courtyard and explore the Lower Realm without being trapped by the tower.
The thought made her smile again.
Yang Lin calmly looked at her.
"Then I'll return."
Xu BaiLing nodded.
"Good night, Yang Lin."
Yang Lin calmly replied, "Good night."
He turned and walked away.
Xu BaiLing watched him for a moment.
Then she entered her private courtyard.
The gate closed behind her.
She walked through the garden and looked toward the main residence.
Her expression was peaceful.
She had not asked Yang Lin how he had rescued her.
She had not asked who he truly was.
Those questions remained unanswered.
However, she did not feel the same urgency to ask them anymore.
She was free.
For now, that was enough.
Xu BaiLing calmly entered the cultivation chamber.
She sat down and began cultivating.
The surrounding Immortal Qi slowly gathered around her.
Her cultivation remained suppressed at the peak of the Transcendence Realm Perfection Late Stage, but her foundation was undamaged.
She calmly circulated her cultivation technique.
A faint light appeared around her body.
Outside the courtyard, the night remained peaceful.
### Chapter 2849 — The Lord of Nothingness Returns
Yang Lin calmly walked back toward the main hall.
The moon shone above the Ancient Evil God Sect.
Immortal clouds drifted between the floating mountains, and the distant pavilions remained illuminated beneath the night sky.
Yang Lin walked at a leisurely pace.
He had arranged Xu BaiLing's private courtyard.
She had seemed pleased with it.
That was enough.
He did not think much more about the matter.
After a while, Yang Lin returned to the main hall.
He entered without announcing himself.
Moon Demon Fairy, Gu Yi Longshu, Chaoran Zhi Quan, and Yu Luhan were still seated inside.
They had continued talking after Yang Lin and Xu BaiLing left.
When Yang Lin entered, Chaoran Zhi Quan looked toward him.
"Yang Lin, you're back."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yes."
He walked toward his seat.
Moon Demon Fairy watched him with a faint smile.
"Did you arrange Xu BaiLing's courtyard?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yes."
Gu Yi Longshu smiled.
"Was she satisfied?"
Yang Lin replied, "Yes."
Chaoran Zhi Quan looked at him.
"Then everything is settled."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"That's right."
He sat down.
For a moment, nobody said anything.
Then Yang Lin shifted slightly and leaned against Chaoran Zhi Quan's right arm.
He did so naturally, as though it were the most ordinary thing in the world.
Chaoran Zhi Quan froze.
Her eyes widened.
The color slowly rose across her cheeks.
Within a few moments, her entire face had turned red.
She looked down at Yang Lin.
He was calmly leaning against her right arm, his expression completely unchanged.
He seemed perfectly comfortable.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's lips parted slightly.
But she could not immediately find the words to say.
Moon Demon Fairy noticed what had happened.
Her eyes widened.
Then she slowly covered her mouth.
Gu Yi Longshu stared at Yang Lin for a moment before looking toward Chaoran Zhi Quan.
A faint smile appeared on her face.
Yu Luhan looked at the two of them.
He blinked.
Then he blinked again.
He was speechless.
Yang Lin had returned from arranging Xu BaiLing's courtyard and immediately leaned against Chaoran Zhi Quan as though nothing had happened.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's face became even redder.
"Yang... Yang Lin."
Yang Lin calmly looked up at her.
"What is it?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan opened her mouth.
Then she closed it again.
She did not know how to explain what she was feeling.
Yang Lin was simply leaning against her arm.
Yet the casualness of the action made her heart beat faster.
Moon Demon Fairy finally spoke.
"Yang Lin, are you comfortable?"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yes."
Moon Demon Fairy nearly laughed.
Gu Yi Longshu lowered her head, hiding her smile.
Yu Luhan looked away.
He had no idea how to react.
Chaoran Zhi Quan remained frozen in place, her face bright red.
Yang Lin calmly closed his eyes for a moment.
He appeared completely at ease.
### Chapter 2850 — The Red-Faced Chaoran Zhi Quan
Inside the main hall of the Ancient Evil God Sect—
Yang Lin calmly leaned against Chaoran Zhi Quan's right arm.
Chaoran Zhi Quan sat motionless.
Her face was red.
Her ears were red.
Even the tips of her fingers had become slightly warm.
She looked down at Yang Lin.
He was completely calm.
There was no embarrassment on his face.
There was no sign that he considered his action unusual.
He simply leaned against her arm as though he had found a comfortable place to rest.
Chaoran Zhi Quan swallowed.
"Yang Lin..."
Yang Lin calmly opened his eyes.
"What is it?"
She stared at him.
Then she looked away.
"Nothing."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
He closed his eyes again.
Chaoran Zhi Quan became speechless.
She had called his name, but he had accepted her answer without asking anything else.
Now, she did not know whether to feel relieved or frustrated.
Moon Demon Fairy watched them with an amused expression.
She had known Chaoran Zhi Quan for a long time.
She had rarely seen her become this embarrassed.
Gu Yi Longshu also noticed.
She smiled faintly but remained silent.
Yu Luhan sat beside Chaoran Zhi Quan.
He looked toward Yang Lin.
Then he looked at Chaoran Zhi Quan's red face.
Finally, he quietly turned away.
He decided not to interfere.
After a while, Moon Demon Fairy leaned forward slightly.
"Chaoran Zhi Quan, are you alright?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan immediately looked at her.
"I'm fine!"
Her answer came much too quickly.
Moon Demon Fairy raised her eyebrows.
Gu Yi Longshu covered her mouth.
Yu Luhan lowered his head.
Chaoran Zhi Quan realized that everyone was looking at her.
Her face became even redder.
"Why are all of you looking at me?"
Moon Demon Fairy smiled innocently.
"Nothing."
Gu Yi Longshu nodded.
"Nothing at all."
Yu Luhan quietly agreed.
"That's right."
Chaoran Zhi Quan stared at them.
She knew perfectly well that they were teasing her.
But she could not say anything without making herself even more embarrassed.
Yang Lin calmly shifted his head slightly against her arm.
"Your arm is comfortable."
The main hall fell silent.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's eyes widened.
Moon Demon Fairy's mouth opened slightly.
Gu Yi Longshu turned her face away.
Yu Luhan froze.
For a moment, nobody knew what to say.
Then Moon Demon Fairy began laughing.
Gu Yi Longshu could no longer hide her smile.
Yu Luhan coughed awkwardly.
Chaoran Zhi Quan's face turned crimson.
"YANG LIN!"
Yang Lin calmly opened his eyes.
"What?"
Chaoran Zhi Quan stared at him.
He looked completely innocent.
She finally covered her face with her free hand.
"Nothing!"
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Alright."
He leaned against her arm again.
Chaoran Zhi Quan remained red-faced.
Moon Demon Fairy continued laughing quietly.
Gu Yi Longshu smiled as she watched them.
Yu Luhan shook his head helplessly.
The Lord of Nothingness had crossed an impossible Icy Region, rescued a woman from the Immortal Realm, and told that he will reveal secrets beyond the knowledge of the Immortal Realm that others also knew to Xu BaiLing if she asked.
Yet none of those things had caused as much chaos inside the main hall as his casual decision to lean against Chaoran Zhi Quan's arm.
And Yang Lin himself?
He was already comfortable enough to rest there as though nothing extraordinary had happened.
