Chapter Forty-Eight: An Unexpected Appointment

In the dead of night, the moon and stars are scarce.

Even if this is a prosperous imperial capital, because of the existence of the night ban, at night, it will still fall into silence.

Lin Qi, who had already fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes.

He was stunned for a moment, but he still turned over and sat up, silently dressed, and walked out of the room gently.

glanced at the room next to her, there was no movement, it seemed that the little girl was still asleep, Lin Qi nodded silently, turned around and slowly closed the door, and left quietly.

On the street, there were night guards, the closer to the imperial city, the denser the guards, Lin Qi stopped and stopped, carefully dodged, and finally walked to a deep alley not long after.

Lin Qi walked into the deep alley, and then stopped, and at this moment, in the dark shadow, a person slowly walked out.

"Yes, I didn't lose it, I barely qualified. ”

The man chuckled, and by the bright moonlight, he finally revealed his true face.

Sword God Zhang Xiao.

"Why, you're alone?"

Hearing Zhang Xiao's question, Lin Qi was slightly stunned.

"Senior, don't be funny, don't you just don't want to alarm that girl in my family when you summoned me so secretly? If not, why be so sneaky. ”

"Boy, it's really exciting, it seems that this time, I shouldn't have found the wrong person. ”

After getting Lin Qi's answer, Zhang Xiao nodded with satisfaction, but this made Lin Qi feel a little frightened.

"Senior, what is the matter with you coming to me?"

Lin Qi looked at Zhang Xiao, although his face was calm, but countless thoughts flashed in his heart, the opposite opportunity was the first person in the world, but he was just a fledgling hairy boy, no matter what, he shouldn't find his own head.

"Come with me, it's not appropriate to talk here. ”

After speaking, Zhang Xiao turned around and walked into the alley, Lin Qi hesitated, but still followed.

"Senpai, where is this?"

"The backyard of the Sword Pavilion. ”

While speaking, Zhang Xiao took Lin Qi and walked into a courtyard, and it turned out that the back door of the Sword Pavilion was in this alley.

After a short time, the two came to an empty field, and at this time, Zhang Xiao finally stopped.

"Alright, let's talk here. ”

Zhang Xiao turned around and looked at Lin Qi again, under Zhang Xiao's scrutinizing gaze, Lin Qi suddenly felt a little restrained.

"Looking for you today, there is actually one thing I want to ask you, but before that, I still have some things that I need to confirm with you. ”

Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, Lin Qi was indeed a little surprised, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only wait for Zhang Xiao's next words.

"Do you know that those two groups of contestants in today's martial arts tournament have quirky contestants?"

Hearing this, Lin Qi chuckled in his heart, you know, these two groups of people have demonic energy, it is obvious that there is something related to the Heavenly Demon Sect, in fact, Lin Qi also wants to know their information now, after all, these four people were taken away by the forbidden army, and now their situation, no one knows.

Lin Qi nodded, indicating that it was clear, Zhang Xiao saw it, and then smiled slightly.

"I heard that in the past few years, you have fought with the Heavenly Demon Sect several times, and even broke the tricks of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and even defeated the demon lord of the Heavenly Demon Sect, right?"

"Yes. ”

Naturally, there is nothing to cover up about such a thing, but Lin Qi doesn't know how Zhang Xiao knows so clearly, you must know these things, the two have never hyped them.

"Heavenly Demon Sect, a cult sect that has been very active during this time, the crimes they have committed are too numerous to mention, and I naturally know about it, but I am ashamed to say that for a long time, I have not really met the masters in the Heavenly Demon Sect, and every time it is some little minions who have done nothing, I will deal with it casually, so many things, I may not know as much as you. ”

After listening to Zhang Xiao's words, Lin Qi always felt a little funny.

When you meet some small minions, you can deal with them casually? I'm afraid that it is the strength of the best product, and I guess you can't put it in your eyes.

"However, this time is different, because the evil hand of the Heavenly Demon Gate has reached the imperial capital, this is the bottom line of the Sword Pavilion, so this time, I have to deal with it. ”

At this time, Lin Qi suddenly remembered the matter of Hua Qiyuan, he didn't know what Zhang Xiao's worthiness was, but Hua Qiyuan was also born in the Heavenly Demon Gate after all, although she is now the princess of Dahua, but who can guarantee that this is not a trick of the Heavenly Demon Gate?

Lin Qi wanted to speak and stopped, and after thinking about it, he finally didn't say it.

When Zhang Xiao saw it, he thought that Lin Qi heard about the matter of the Heavenly Demon Gate, but he was a little embarrassed, and he didn't doubt him, so he just chuckled.

"What, you're scared? If you're scared, just say it, I'll find another candidate. ”

Hearing Zhang Xiao's joking words, Lin Qi came back to his senses, he shook his head, he never flinched from punishing evil and promoting good.

"Seniors, although it is said that my cultivation is still shallow and my experience is insufficient, if it is useful to my place, it is good to give orders, punish evil and promote good, and support justice, it has always been the wish of my generation, and I will die without regrets!"

Seeing Lin Qi's heartfelt words, Zhang Xiao laughed and looked very satisfied.

"Okay, don't interrupt when you write, listen to me. ”

"In today's game, you also saw that there are two groups of teams in question, with your experience, do you think their weirdness is related to the Heavenly Demon Gate?"

Lin Qi nodded.

"Min Chengzhi and the two of them of the Talent Alliance are definitely related, but the two people of Xunmingzong are only suspicious, but they are all taken by the forbidden army, and I can't judge what happened after that. ”

After that, Lin Qi told Zhang Xiao about the blood devouring beads of the Heavenly Demon Gate, and after listening to it, Zhang Xiao rubbed his chin and seemed to be in thought.

After a while, Zhang Xiao raised his head again.

"Do you know that Min Chengzhi and Wang Linyu died in two cells in the Imperial City Heavenly Prison at night, and were ...... Extinguished!"

Lin Qi was taken aback, he didn't expect it to be such a result.

"That'...... What about the people who are looking for the Ming Sect?"

"They are fine, they have been protected by the people of my Sword Pavilion now, and according to me, among these two people, only one person has a problem, but it seems that the person who killed the mouth only targeted Min Chengzhi and Wang Linyu, and he shot cleanly, and he didn't even alarm the guards, which is really very weird. ”

"How can this be?" For a while, even Lin Qi couldn't figure it out, if the Heavenly Demon Sect really wanted to be destroyed, there should definitely not be a person left.

"Well, it's actually quite simple. At this time, Zhang Xiao actually snorted coldly, "Do you know who is the current Talent Alliance, who is the controller behind the scenes?"

"Three Princes!"

Lin Qi screamed in surprise, but at this time, Zhang Xiao smiled and made a silent gesture.

If it was really as Lin Qi thought, the person who killed the mouth was the faction of the Three Princes, then the matter seemed to make sense, but then again, if this is the case, then this matter can be big or small.

The prince of the dignified Dahua Dynasty has colluded with the Heavenly Demon Gate of the Evil Demons, if such a thing is exposed, I am afraid that a major earthquake will occur in the entire government and the opposition, and then the society will be turbulent, and the people will be panicked.

"Okay, let's talk about this problem here, and I'll check the rest of the matter. However, these two people have very good backgrounds, and I am afraid that their death will end up on the two of you, so you should also be prepared. ”

Although Zhang Xiao's words are a little impersonal and incomprehensible, they are facts, and people's hearts are sometimes like this, especially when they are used by people with intentions.

"Alright, with that out of the way, let's get down to business. ”

Hearing this, Lin Qi regained his spirits.

"There are some things that I can't do in person due to my identity and ability, so I need to find someone to replace me, can you understand me?"

Hearing Zhang Xiao's question, Lin Qi nodded although he was puzzled.

"But am I up to it?"

Lin Qi is not unconfident, but what even a generation of sword gods can't do, can he really do?

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiao grinned instead.

"I don't know, that's why I called you out!"

Hearing this, Lin Qi couldn't help but be even more puzzled.

At this moment, Zhang Xiao's expression suddenly became extremely serious, and at this moment, a fierce killing intent suddenly rose from Zhang Xiao's body!

"Senior, you ......"

Lin Qi was shocked and subconsciously took a step back, but at this time, he had been locked by Zhang Xiao's killing intent, and he only felt that there was no chance to escape at all, and the blood on his body was cold for a while!

"Boy, don't die!"

A flash of swordlight!
