Chapter 1050: The Storm Rises
The matter of Lin Xiao dueling with the Lord of the Magic Stone Society at the top of Mount Tai quickly spread in private.
After all, the biggest hobby of Chinese people is to watch gossip, and suddenly there is such a big gossip as a duel, and there are naturally many people who are interested.
Especially the object of this duel, one is the lord of the Magic Stone Society, the most mysterious big man in the Western world, and the other is the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Hexi City, Qingshan Province, such a contrast is really a bit unacceptable.
So some people laughed and said, I don't know when the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection has also become a fist to speak? I'm going to fly away and fight with people.
Of course, only those who are familiar with Lin Xiao understand that this time I am afraid that there will be another big event.
After all, the inside story of the huge gamble between the Lord of the Magic Stone Society and Lin Xiao was not a secret in the eyes of the higher-ups, and while they were worried about whether Lin Xiao would be able to defeat the Lord of the Magic Stone Society, they were also a little shocked by Lin Xiao's huge arrogance in throwing tens of billions of dollars in chips.
This is not a hundred dollars, but ten billion dollars, even if it is a million dollars gamble, it is not seen every day, but this time, it is a big trouble.
The family was also very concerned about this matter, Lin Zhengnan deliberately flew back to the capital, brought his son with Xiao Meifeng, and inquired carefully all night.
Several members of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee are also very concerned about this, after all, they know very well that at present, Lin Xiao is the strongest combat force in the country, if in the face of the challenge of the Lord of the Demon Stone Society, Lin Xiao avoids not fighting, can Huaxia's face be recovered?
However, if Lin Xiao couldn't defeat the Demon Stone Guild Lord, it would also be a headache.
All in all, until a clear result is obtained, everyone is not sure in their hearts.
Lin Xiao himself didn't care, after all, what his strength was, he knew best in his heart, about the question of the Lord of the Magic Stone Society, just through the power of the magic stone, he could see a little clue.
After all, the capacity of the magic stone is limited, if it exceeds a certain energy limit, the magic stone will not be able to continue to improve its personal strength, which also determines that as long as the other party relies on the magic stone to improve his combat effectiveness, it is impossible for his overall strength to break through.
If this is the case, Lin Xiao definitely doesn't need to worry about the other party, because his strength is not something like a magic stone that can be improved.
"It seems that in a short period of time, I will not be able to leave the capital again." Lin Xiao sat in the hilltop villa in the western suburbs of the capital, looked at the clouds and mist in the distance, and said with some emotion.
Although Lin Xiao is the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Hexi City, and the focus of his work should be in Hexi City, he is busy with affairs now, and the work here in the capital has become the top priority, and he must not leave for a while.
This is also something that cannot be helped, and Lin Xiao himself can't do anything, after all, he has his own responsibility, and this responsibility does not necessarily have to be reflected in the work of the Discipline Inspection Commission of Hexi City.
Han Ya was busy with affairs, of course it was impossible to accompany Lin Xiao at any time, it happened that Gao Lan was in the capital, and when she heard that Lin Xiao was going to fight a duel, she was very anxious, and she didn't care about her father's beard and glare, so she ran out and accompanied Lin Xiao to drink tea on the top of the mountain to relax.
"Why do even foreigners come to duel with you?" Gao Lan peeled Lin Xiao's apple peel and said with deep concern, "I heard that the strength of the Magic Stone Society is very strong, and their influence in the Western world is not even weaker than that of the Holy See, how did you provoke such an opponent?" ”
"Sometimes, it's not that I'm going to cause trouble, it's that trouble comes to me." Lin Xiao smiled and said, "It's really people sitting at home, trouble comes from overseas, and I'm the one who is most wronged." ”
"I don't believe it, it's so decent, why do people come to fight with you?" Gao Lan wrinkled her nose and said, "Could it be that you pried his girlfriend?" ”
"How is that possible!" Lin Xiao glared at him and said, "People are already seventy or eighty years old, as for whether there is ninety-one hundred years old, no one can figure out, all in all, he is very old, do you think I will rob him of any girlfriend?" Besides, even if he has a girlfriend, he's not too young, how can I have such a heavy taste? ”
"Then maybe an eighty-two old professor can find a twenty-eight female doctor, who said that the lord of the Magic Stone Society can't find an eighteen-year-old girlfriend?" Gao Lan retorted, "Besides, if he doesn't even have this ability, why should he challenge you?" ”
"It's a duel, not a challenge." Lin Xiao corrected, "This old guy's strength is unfathomable, he is not an unknown junior, I am a vulnerable group." ”
Of course, what Lin Xiao said also made sense, after all, the reputation of the Magic Stone Society was very great, and the strength of the Lord of the Magic Stone Society was even more unfathomable, it was difficult for anyone to figure out how powerful he was, but Lin Xiao, a young man, was not so famous, at least Lin Xiao was not famous overseas.
In the eyes of outsiders, there is obviously a big gap in the strength comparison between the two.
Therefore, the Venerable Lord of the Demon Stone Society suddenly asked a young Chinese man to fight a duel, which seemed to many people to be an incredible thing, because they believed that the strength between the two was not on the same starting line at all.
"But you're younger than him." Gao Lan also had a different opinion, "They all say that the old man doesn't talk about his muscles and bones, he is so old, if you smash it down, you can smash him apart, can they not see this advantage?" ”
"Hehe, it's good to don't talk about muscles and bones, but that's talking about ordinary people, for cultivators like us, the state of the body has become a trivial matter, and we pay more attention to the impact of spiritual power, which ignores age, and only pays attention to the depth of cultivation." Lin Xiao corrected Gao Lan's statement.
"It sounds like a great thing, but I wonder if we'll have a chance to go and watch this game live?" Gao Lan cut the peeled apple into small pieces, put it on the plate, then inserted it with a toothpick and brought it to Lin Xiao.
"Well, I'm afraid this is a little inappropriate, this kind of dangerous thing, it is difficult to control the strength of the shot on the spot, in case of a landslide, where can I take care of the safety of the audience." Lin Xiao ate the apple, shook his head and refused Gao Lan's request, "This kind of thing, you still don't mix with it, this is a very dangerous thing, it is definitely not recommended that you go to watch the live game." ”
"Is the landslide really that serious?" Gao Lan was still a little skeptical about this.
"Huh." Lin Xiao didn't speak, just smiled, and then waved it out with one hand.
Gao Lan saw a bright light flash in front of him, and flew far away in an instant, and then a pine tree about a kilometer away from him, with a huge canopy of hundreds of square meters, seemed to have been cut off by something, and fell straight down, fell from the mountainside, and rolled down.
Lin Xiao beckoned, and the bright light flew back again, and then disappeared.
In Gao Lan's stunned, Lin Xiao said to Gao Lan, "This is one of the ways we duel, where do you think it can be considered safe to watch?" ”
Gao Lan was stunned for a long time, and finally said two words, "Sword Immortal!" ”
She really didn't expect that her childhood playmate Lin Xiao had grown to such a point.
"Sort of." Lin Xiao smiled, then opened his mouth to inhale, and saw that the white mist in front of him, like a long whale absorbing water, was continuously sucked into Lin Xiao's mouth.
"Whew!" As Lin Xiao exhaled in one breath, the mist condensed into the shape of a long sword, stabbing straight towards the opposite rock.
I only heard a crisp sound, and the hard basalt was actually pierced by this long sword condensed by the mist.
"Sizzle......" Gao Lan couldn't help but gasp when she saw it.
She stepped forward, touched the basalt with her hand, looked at the deep hole with a depth of more than two feet above, and her heart was full of shock, but she didn't expect that in Lin Xiao, she really saw the legendary condensation of qi into a sword, which is a legend only in the novel, but I didn't expect to see it in reality.
"So, it's impossible for you to watch the live version, it's too dangerous." Lin Xiao said to Gao Lan, "I don't know what the strength of the Lord of the Magic Stone Society is, in short, he won't be too weak, if you want to have a look, it's best to watch the satellite live broadcast, that is safer, and the perspective is better, you can see clearly." ”
Gao Lan nodded and didn't say anything else, she knew very well that a master of Lin Xiao's level had indeed reached the realm of mystery and unpredictability, and it was not suitable to show it in front of ordinary people.
At this time, the mobile phone placed on the stone table next to it rang.
Gao Lan glanced at it, pursed her lips and said, "Your wife called." ”
Lin Xiao smiled, then picked up his phone, "Oh, what's wrong?" ”
"I heard that the Lord of the Magic Stone Society has asked you for a duel, and now the masters of various countries have come out and are concentrating on the area around Mount Tai." Han Ya said to Lin Xiao on the phone, "According to preliminary statistics, there are almost hundreds of famous masters, and there are actually hundreds of unknown masters. ”
"You mean to say that these people are here to make trouble?" As soon as Lin Xiao heard Han Ya's words, he immediately understood what she meant.
The biggest headache for governments is that these guys who violate the ban by force, who are strong but do not abide by the law, these people are equivalent to the big devils, but they also hold foreign passports, so if they want the local police to deal with this kind of thing, they must not be able to catch it.
However, as an operational department, the number of people in the secret service is not very large, so it is naturally impossible to cover everything, so how to deal with these lawbreakers is more worrying.
"Yes, I have received six cases today, all of which were tossed by these people, and I am almost annoyed." Han Ya replied.
