Wu dong Qian Kun: I, Lin Langtian, Refuse to be a Supporting Character

Deep within the Ancient Hidden Realm, after Liu Bai left, Lin Langtian and his companions didn’t hesitate as they stepped into the distorted space. Though the twisted space was treacherous, for an expert like Lin Langtian, the risks were manageable with due caution. Thus, as they advanced smoothly, the ruins of the Four Great Sects hidden within the warped space began to appear clearly in their view.

”What is that…” Lin Langtian narrowed his gaze toward the center of the plaza and saw four massive, tightly closed ancient bronze gates standing silently as if they had been there forever.

”So, these are the ruins of the Four Great Sects…” Lin Langtian, Lin Dong, and the others descended to the plaza and stared at the four imposing doors. Around them, powerful figures also arrived, their eyes sweeping across the plaza with fierce interest, the greed in their gazes undeniable.

As these experts observed, they too noticed something unusual about the bronze doors. It seemed clear that the Four Great Sects’ legacies were concealed behind these doors. With that thought, many of the experts took action, unleashing surges of their powerful energy in an attempt to shatter the doors.

Yet, their attempts were futile. The doors remained unscathed, merely repelling the attacks with an odd ripple that rebounded toward the attackers, injuring them instead. The sight caused a hush to fall over the plaza as others, who had been considering joining the assault, quickly backed away, realizing that brute force was useless.

”No need to waste your energy; these bronze gates can only be opened with an Ancient Key,” said a voice as a shadowy figure stepped forward. The man was thin, with sunken eyes, giving him a grim, ghostly appearance.

”Ming King Yan Sen! I didn’t expect to see you here in the Northwest,” Liu Bai remarked in surprise as he recognized the newcomer.

”The Northeast is too crowded, and even super dynasties are fighting there. The Northwest is much more to my liking,” Yan Sen replied coolly.

Yan Sen’s eyes shifted to Lin Langtian and Lin Dong. ”It seems the two of you, like Brother Liu Bai, also hold an Ancient Key. So, why don’t the four of us open the doors to the inheritance together?”

Lin Langtian exchanged glances with Lin Dong and nodded in agreement. In the next instant, two Ancient Keys appeared in their hands, each radiating a faint glow.

Seeing this, Yan Sen and Liu Bai did the same, producing an Ancient Key each. With all four keys gathered, the four men were about to enter the bronze gates when a sudden shout rang out.

”Wait!”

A voice called out as one of the two-yuan Nirvana stage experts stepped forward with apparent reluctance. ”Why should you four get all the spoils when the rest of us traveled here too?”

”Yeah, why should we…” came other resentful murmurs, clearly fueled by envy and ambition.

”A group of fools who don’t know their place…” Yan Sen muttered, narrowing his eyes. With a flick of his fingers, he summoned a concentrated surge of energy that shot like a bullet toward the two-yuan Nirvana stage expert who had spoken.

Boom!

The air vibrated as the ghastly energy sped through it, and in the next moment, onlookers watched in horror as the two-yuan Nirvana stage expert’s head exploded like a crushed watermelon, blood splattering in a macabre display.

”Anyone else have a problem?” Yan Sen asked indifferently.

The terrifying sight had onlookers swallowing hard, many instinctively taking a step back. Their previous resolve vanished as fear replaced greed.

”Heh. If no one objects to Yan Sen’s key, what about mine?” Liu Bai’s voice carried over, his smile looking casual, yet everyone knew he was as ruthless as any in the Northwest, his hands steeped in blood.

After seeing how Yan Sen and Liu Bai intimidated their competition, Lin Langtian raised an eyebrow and stepped forward.

”The Flame Alliance alone holds two Ancient Keys. Any objections?”

Lin Dong, Mo Ying, and Xiao Yan immediately took their places at Lin Langtian’s side, scanning the crowd for anyone who dared challenge them. Though some seemed tempted, Lin Langtian’s reputation, which rivaled Liu Bai’s, kept them at bay. They knew that challenging the Flame Alliance might not only cost them the Four Great Sects’ inheritance but their lives as well.

”Hmph. If no one objects, then let’s proceed,” Liu Bai sneered, noticing the hesitant onlookers.

As he spoke, the Ancient Key floated from his hand, its glow intensifying into a mysterious rune that cast its light upon the sealed doors.

Buzz!

With the rune’s illumination, the ancient bronze door, which had remained sealed for countless years, slowly cracked open before everyone’s expectant gaze.

Creak!

Once Liu Bai and his group entered through the gap, the door swung shut, and disappointed murmurs rippled through the crowd.

”Let’s go as well,” Lin Langtian said, turning to Lin Dong with a smile.

Nodding, Lin Dong took out his Ancient Key, and as they activated the doors, Yan Sen did the same with his key, summoning a matching response from the fourth door.

Around the plaza, onlookers held their breath as they watched the doors glow. Some even began breathing heavily, clearly struggling between desire and reason.

Unbothered by the greedy stares, Lin Langtian focused only on the bronze gate resonating with his Ancient Key. He could feel a connection reaching out to him from the other side, wrapping around him.

”Is this my legacy…” he murmured to himself as he guided the key’s energy into a rune that embedded itself into the door. Slowly, the door opened, releasing an ancient air that had been sealed away for ages.

Creak!

At the same time, Lin Dong’s and Yan Sen’s bronze doors opened, releasing an aura that filled the plaza with a sense of awe.

In the next moment, Lin Langtian and his companions—Mo Ying, Jin Wu, Lin Dong, and Xiao Yan—finally stepped through the ancient gates, and with a final creak, the doors shut tightly behind them, returning to their ancient stillness.
