### Chapter 2477 — The News Spreads Across the Lower Realm
By early morning, the news had already spread throughout the entire Lower Realm.
The Heaven Cutter Sect had dominated the Small Starry Sky Secret Realm.
Yang Lin had returned.
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long had followed him.
An Immortal Sovereign Supreme Peak genius had disappeared with a single glance.
An Immortal Emperor Mid Stage elder had also been erased by Mo Yulu with a single glance.
The news spread like a storm.
Throughout the Lower Realm, the Ancient Immortal families, Ancient Immortal sects, Ancient Immortal cults, and Ancient Immortal pavilions were restless.
Some elders looked horrified.
Some became extremely solemn.
Some immediately ordered their disciples not to provoke the Heaven Cutter Sect.
Others secretly discussed whether the Heaven Cutter Sect could truly be confronted.
Yet nobody could determine how deep Yang Lin's strength actually was.
In the Southern Domain—
the Qingyun Sword Sect and the other five great sword sects had also received the news.
Inside the main hall of the Qingyun Sword Sect, the atmosphere was extremely heavy.
Zhen Yi sat upon the highest seat.
His expression was unusually solemn.
Below him stood Sun Mi and the twelve Peak Masters.
Every one of them had a horrified expression.
They had never expected that Yang Lin's words about conquering the Lower Realm would become reality so quickly.
Zhen Yi slowly exhaled.
"This kid Yang Lin didn't lie about conquering the Lower Realm."
"He already made so many factions restless."
Sun Mi looked worried.
"Sect Master... what will happen if a Transcendence Realm Early Stage cultivator, or someone above that realm, shows up?"
The twelve Peak Masters also looked toward Zhen Yi.
Zhen Yi remained silent for a moment.
Then he calmly said,
"Yang Lin has many Transcendence Realm cultivators with him."
"More or less, I don't think he even cares about a Transcendence Realm cultivator at all."
Everyone became stunned.
Their expressions changed.
Lan Bailian, Ju Jingli, and Yuqin Yi were equally shocked.
Yet Qin Lu, Xue Yao, Shuiluo Sha, Han Chen, FeiFei, Su Qinglan, Liao Yue, Xiao Rui, Daji, Zhao Feng, Gu Tian, Bai Yao, Ning Mei, Han Qing, Yue Bingxin, Su Liyulu, Cui Ye, Liu Yi, Qin Mo, Shen Rui, Baiyu, Xu Yi, Mo Han, Yu Lianhua, Yu Huaxianzi, and Hua Chao remained completely calm.
They weren't surprised.
They had seen Yang Lin more than anyone else here.
They understood things that the others couldn't.
To them—
what was a mere Transcendence Realm cultivator?
Even a glance was enough.
Xue Yao calmly said,
"Yang Lin will be fine."
"Sect Master and Sect Mistress don't need to worry."
"But those Ancient Immortal factions who want to fight the Heaven Cutter Sect..."
Her voice remained peaceful.
"They will be erased."
The entire main hall became silent.
Everyone's expressions changed again.
Yet Xue Yao, Shuiluo Sha, Han Chen, FeiFei, Su Qinglan, Liao Yue, Xiao Rui, Daji, Zhao Feng, Gu Tian, Bai Yao, Ning Mei, Han Qing, Yue Bingxin, Su Liyulu, Cui Ye, Liu Yi, Qin Mo, Shen Rui, Baiyu, Xu Yi, Mo Han, Yu Lianhua, Yu Huaxianzi, Qin Lu, and Hua Chao remained calm.
To them, this was nothing extraordinary.

### Chapter 2478 — The One Who Cultivated for Fun
Back in the Heaven Cutter Sect—
Yang Lin, Lu Sunyu, Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long remained as calm as usual.
None of them cared about what the Lower Realm was discussing.
Yang Lin suddenly spoke.
"I'm going to break through to Immortal King Mid Stage Peak."
Lu Sunyu calmly looked toward him.
Zi Xian Lu's eyes narrowed slightly.
Qiuyue Lu remained calm.
Yao Qiufei was slightly surprised.
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long also looked toward Yang Lin.
Yao Qiufei then calmly asked,
"Yang Lin, what about the Ancient Immortal factions who are eyeing our Heaven Cutter Sect?"
Lu Sunyu calmly answered,
"Let them do whatever they want."
Yao Qiufei frowned slightly.
"But this time they're really watching us."
Yang Lin didn't respond.
He simply stood up and walked out of the main hall.
Lu Sunyu, Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long followed behind him.
They soon arrived before the cultivation chamber.
Yang Lin entered.
He walked toward the center of the chamber and sat down.
Lu Sunyu calmly looked at the others.
"Watch a miracle."
Qiuyue Lu and Yao Qiufei nodded.
Zi Xian Lu became curious.
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long also watched carefully.
Then—
in the next instant—
Yang Lin broke through.
Immortal King Mid Stage Peak.
There was no terrifying tribulation.
No enormous disturbance.
No violent circulation of Qi.
The breakthrough happened quietly.
Zi Xian Lu was shocked.
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long were also shocked.
But they quickly calmed down.
Yang Lin opened his eyes.
He stood up calmly.
"I broke through."
Everyone remained silent.

### Chapter 2479 — A Quiet Breakthrough
Yang Lin walked out of the cultivation chamber.
Lu Sunyu, Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long followed him.
They returned to the main hall.
Everyone sat upon their respective seats.
Yang Lin calmly looked around.
"Any questions?"
Cu Long immediately asked,
"You broke through that quietly?"
Yang Lin nodded.
"Yes."
"That's normal for any Supreme genius, right?"
Cu Yuner looked at him.
"That's true."
"But Yang Lin, you just broke through like that without circulating Qi?"
Yang Lin calmly replied,
"I told you all earlier."
"I cultivate for fun."
"Lu Sunyu is the same."
The main hall became silent.
Zi Xian Lu suppressed her shock.
She looked toward Yang Lin.
"What does that mean?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"It means what it means."
Silence.
Everyone was speechless.
Apart from Lu Sunyu, Qiuyue Lu, and Yao Qiufei, nobody knew how to respond.
Yang Lin simply leaned back against his seat.
The atmosphere gradually returned to normal.

### Chapter 2480 — The Northern Domain
Yang Lin suddenly spoke.
"Tomorrow morning, I'll go on a trip for around a year."
Lu Sunyu looked toward him.
"Where?"
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long also became curious.
"Where are you going?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Chen Ti Village in the Northern Domain."
Qiuyue Lu was surprised.
"Isn't that a mortal village?"
"Precisely why I want to go."
Yang Lin's expression became slightly nostalgic.
"I just want to feel that nostalgic feeling I had when I was a kid again."
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long were shocked and confused.
Only Lu Sunyu remained completely calm.
She understood.
That place contained an important memory for both Yang Lin and herself.
Those unforgettable memories had remained inside them both, unchanged throughout the passage of countless years.
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long already knew that Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu weren't from any larger star.
They weren't from the Starry Sky either.
They came from outside The World of Cultivation entirely.
Yet neither Yang Lin nor Lu Sunyu answered their questions.
Yang Lin calmly said,
"Sooner or later, I'll tell everyone many things in detail."
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long smiled.
They could wait.

### Chapter 2481 — Goodnight
Eventually—
night arrived.
The Heaven Cutter Sect became quiet.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward everyone.
"Rest well tonight."
He then looked toward Yao Qiufei.
"Yao Qiufei, show Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long their private courtyards."
Yao Qiufei nodded.
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long respectfully said,
"Thank you."
Yang Lin calmly shook his head.
"Don't say that again."
"Since you decided to follow me, then get ready for surprises."
Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long laughed happily.
Mo Yulu then moved closer and quietly said into Yang Lin's ear,
"You are so sweet."
Cu Yuner and Cu Long were shocked by Mo Yulu's boldness.
Lu Sunyu laughed happily.
"That's my little sister."
Mo Yulu immediately blushed.
Qiuyue Lu and Yao Qiufei calmly smiled.
Everyone eventually left the main hall.
Yang Lin, Lu Sunyu, Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long walked together toward the private courtyards.
After reaching their courtyards, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long each said goodnight.
Yang Lin calmly replied,
"Goodnight."
He then looked toward Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, and Yao Qiufei.
He smiled.
"Goodnight."
The three women smiled sweetly.
"Goodnight."
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu then returned to Yang Lin's private courtyard.

### Chapter 2482 — Mo Xian
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu entered the private courtyard.
They walked into the pavilion.
In the next instant, they appeared on the third floor.
Yang Lin entered his room with Lu Sunyu.
Inside, Mo Xian was sitting quietly, reading sword arts.
The moment she saw Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu, she immediately stood.
"Yang Lin, Lu Sunyu, you two are back."
Yang Lin calmly nodded.
"Yeah."
Lu Sunyu smiled.
"Alright. How are you doing?"
Mo Xian calmly answered,
"I'm doing fine."
She looked at the two.
"You two are fine, right?"
Yang Lin's calm expression answered everything.
Lu Sunyu then calmly said,
"Mo Xian, you can go to the next room tonight."
Yang Lin looked at her.
"Wait."
"You're on the next room?"
Lu Sunyu calmly nodded.
"I have a few questions to ask you."
"Any problem?"
Yang Lin calmly shook his head.
"Well, just some questions."
"What problem can there be?"
Mo Xian understood.
She smiled.
"Understood."
She walked toward the next room and closed the door behind her.
Before leaving, she smiled toward Yang Lin.
"Good luck, Yang Lin."
Yang Lin looked toward Lu Sunyu.
"What do you mean?"

### Chapter 2483 — Lu Sunyu's Questions
Lu Sunyu changed out of her dark-black cultivation outfit and into the elegant outfit she had chosen for the night.
Her long dark hair fell naturally behind her.
The pale blue-white garment was delicate and refined, with translucent outer sleeves and intricate details that gave her an ethereal cultivation-world appearance.
A small blue ornamental piece rested near her upper chest, complementing the pale tones of her clothing.
The upper design left a modest portion of her collar and upper chest visible, while the fitted center of the outfit revealed the graceful line of her slender waist.
The lower half consisted of flowing blue-gray fitted trousers and layered fabric ornaments, decorated with refined patterns, hanging tassels, and delicate metallic-blue accessories.
The entire outfit made her figure appear elegant and graceful without losing the dignity of a cultivator.
Lu Sunyu sat down upon Yang Lin's bed.
She looked at him.
"Why are you surprised?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"No, I'm not."
Lu Sunyu laughed sweetly.
"First question."
She paused.
"Do you have feelings for me?"
Yang Lin calmly replied,
"Obviously."
"Since back then, I have."
Lu Sunyu looked at him.
"Then I'm with you. Why didn't you tell me?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"Well..."
"I was waiting."
Lu Sunyu asked,
"Waiting until when?"
Yang Lin looked directly at her.
"You are mine, Lu Sunyu."
"From the day you met me."
Lu Sunyu was slightly shocked.
Then she smiled sweetly.
"Wow."
"I like it."
Yang Lin calmly asked,
"Well, can I make you mine?"
Lu Sunyu smiled.
"I'm yours from the start."
Yang Lin moved closer.
Their lips met in a gentle kiss.
Lu Sunyu's expression became shy.
The two remained together in the quiet room as the night deepened, their conversation and affection gradually fading into the night.

### Chapter 2484 —The Morning
Hours passed.
The night became deeper.
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu remained together until midnight and beyond.
Eventually, the room became quiet.
Lu Sunyu rested upon the bed, breathing softly after the long night.
She looked toward Yang Lin.
"You..."
Yang Lin leaned closer and whispered,
"Are you mad?"
Lu Sunyu looked at him.
"Why would I?"
Yang Lin smiled.
He gently kissed her again.
Lu Sunyu became embarrassed, but she didn't move away.
When dawn finally approached, Yang Lin rose from the bed.
Lu Sunyu also sat up.
Her clothing was slightly disheveled from the long night.
She then moved behind Yang Lin and hugged him.
"Yang Lin."
Yang Lin smiled.
He turned around and looked at her.
Lu Sunyu gently fixed his messy dark-purple-black robes.
Then she changed back into her previous dark-black cultivation outfit.
Once everything was properly arranged, Lu Sunyu looked toward the door.
"Mo Xian."
"Come in."

### Chapter 2485 — Morning
Mo Xian stood up in the next room.
She opened the door and entered.
The moment she saw Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu together, she immediately laughed sweetly.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward her.
"Why are you laughing?"
Mo Xian smiled.
"Did my good luck work?"
Yang Lin calmly replied,
"Don't talk nonsense."
Mo Xian laughed softly.
She then walked toward Lu Sunyu.
"Alright, you two."
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu soon walked out of the room.
They disappeared from the third floor.
A moment later, they came out of the pavilion.
They left Yang Lin's private courtyard and walked toward the main hall.
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu entered the main hall.
They sat upon their seats.
Lu Sunyu suddenly asked,
"Didn't you tell Mo Xian that you're going out?"
Yang Lin calmly answered,
"She knows it all."
Lu Sunyu looked at him.
"Whatever."
Soon afterward—
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long entered the main hall.
They looked toward Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu.
"Good morning."
Yang Lin and Lu Sunyu calmly replied,
"Good morning."
Everyone then sat upon their respective seats.
---
### Chapter 2486 — A New Morning
The morning sun gradually illuminated the Heaven Cutter Sect.
Inside the main hall—
Yang Lin sat upon the main seat.
Lu Sunyu sat beside him.
Zi Xian Lu, Qiuyue Lu, Yao Qiufei, Mo Yulu, Cu Yuner, and Cu Long sat upon their respective seats.
Everyone had gathered.
Outside, the disciples of the Heaven Cutter Sect had begun their morning activities.
Far away, the Lower Realm was still discussing the events surrounding the Small Starry Sky Secret Realm.
The Ancient Immortal factions remained restless.
Yet inside the Heaven Cutter Sect's main hall, nobody cared.
Yang Lin calmly looked toward everyone.
The journey to Chen Ti Village in the Northern Domain was approaching.
The Heaven Cutter Sect remained peaceful.
But beyond the sect, countless eyes were watching.
The Lower Realm had already begun changing.
And Yang Lin—
remained completely calm.
