Chapter 36: Another Assassination
Xuanyue Sect, Law Enforcement Hall.
Zhao Feng, who had a broken arm, sat on the precious pineapple wooden chair, and the fragrant tea in his hand was steaming. It should have been a leisurely and freehand picture, but in Zhao Feng's eyes at this time, it seemed a little cold and terrifying.
Several Law Enforcement Hall disciples around him all looked nervous, and they didn't even dare to breathe.
Ever since Zhao Feng came back from the failed pursuit of Lin Yuan, his temperament has become extremely violent, as long as there is anything he is not satisfied with, he will not hesitate to kill the people around him.
It's only been three days, and there are no less than four Law Enforcement Hall disciples who have died at his hands.
"The Fire Wolf Gang, did you reply?"
Zhao Feng said coldly.
"Back to Senior Brother, Xu Qihu, the leader of the Fire Wolf Gang, has already replied. He promised to accept Senior Brother's commission, and promised to kill Lin Cheng and recapture Senior Brother's Qingyun Sword. ”
A Law Enforcement Hall disciple hurriedly said.
"Good. ”
A grim smile tugged at the corner of Zhao Feng's mouth.
The right arm was cut off, the mysterious weapon was snatched, such a shame and humiliation has become Zhao Feng's inner demon. If Lin Cheng doesn't die for a day, his heart can't be calm. If it weren't for the fact that he forcibly broke into the gate of Beiguanfu City last time, and now that he has a lot of inconveniences and can't enter Beiguanfu City again, he will definitely go to break Lin Cheng's body into pieces.
"Lin Cheng, even if you have Xia Zhen's protection, what can you do? The water in Beiguanfu City is much deeper than you imagined!"
......
After Xia Zhen finished telling Lin Cheng about the Heavenly Spirit Altar Competition, he left Beiguanfu City in a hurry. In his words, the time for the opening of the Heaven Refining Spirit Altar Competition was imminent, and he had to rush to the headquarters of the Elixir Alliance in the Great Qin Imperial Capital as soon as possible to fight for Lin Cheng to come back. If it was delayed, then Lin Cheng would have no chance.
Before leaving, Xia Zhen also specially instructed Lin Cheng to hide in the Elixir Alliance if he encountered any trouble. Although it was impossible for the Elixir Alliance to help him solve the problem of Xuanyue Sect, it was more than enough to protect his safety.
After leaving the Elixir Alliance, Lin Cheng followed Lin Yanran back to the Lin family.
Originally, his injuries had healed more than half, so it didn't matter if he didn't return to the Lin family. But under Lin Yanran's kind invitation, he still couldn't refuse, after all, the Lin family had also taken care of him for several days, so he should solemnly thank the master's family once.
"Lin Gongzi, my father has admired you for a long time, he invited you to our family banquet tonight, and asked me to be sure to let you be there. ”
These are Lin Yanran's original words.
Lin Yan didn't refuse, he knew that his big show in the Elixir Alliance today had already spread to the upper echelons of Beiguan Mansion City, and Lin Yanran's father, the head of the Lin family, was naturally no exception.
As Xia Zhen said, a young elixir master with amazing potential like him, any force would try their best to win it over.
But if his serious injury this time was not healed in the Lin family, he owed the other party a favor. Otherwise, he would never have been able to attend such a meaningless feast. He still has a lot of things to do, and he simply doesn't have time to waste on this kind of hypocritical socializing.
"I don't know when to open the second layer of the Demon Heaven Xuandian......"
There was still a period of time before the start of the dinner, Lin Cheng was alone in the room to heal his injuries, and with a strong body, his injuries healed at an astonishing speed. Moreover, he could refine a large number of pills at any time to cure the hidden dangers in his body.
Serious injuries that ordinary people need to recuperate for months to heal, but in his case, it only takes a few days.
What he cared about the most was that the first layer of his "Demon Heaven Xuandian" King Kong was not bad, and he had already cultivated to the realm of Dacheng, and he was only one step away from the realm of consummation. According to his estimates, as long as he cultivated to the realm of Vajra Incorruptible Perfection, the system should automatically open the authority of the second-layer exercises of the Demon Heaven Xuandian to him.
There is also the sword technique that he accidentally comprehended when he fought with Zhao Feng in the fierce battle of life and death that day, he also secretly verified that as long as his mind moves and he is willing to consume a large amount of his spiritual power, the Qingyun Sword will be suspended in the air as before, and temporarily achieve the flight of the sword. And theoretically, as long as he continues to replenish his mental power, the flight time of Edgeworth will be greatly extended.
This is definitely a killer feature for him, and it can have unexpected effects!
"Young Master Lin, the dinner is about to start, please take a seat. ”
As the night deepened, the little girl who was in charge of taking care of Lin Cheng before took Lin Cheng and walked to the hall of the Lin family with Lin Cheng. In the hall, Lin Yanran and her parents had been waiting there for a long time.
Lin Yanran's mother is a graceful and luxurious middle-aged beauty who looks virtuous and virtuous. As for her father, who is about forty years old, he was also born elegant and easy-going, but the essence in his eyes that flashed from time to time showed that this person was not shallow.
"Lingtai Realm!"
Not only that, the condensed and powerful aura emanating from the head of the Lin family made Lin Cheng secretly frightened. He was sure that this Lin family head was definitely a powerhouse of the Lingtai Realm!
After all, a person who can occupy a place in a family in the huge Beiguanfu City can never be a simple thing.
"Lin Gongzi is a young talent, and he is much younger than I imagined. ”
As soon as Lin Cheng took his seat, Lin Wenhai, the head of the Lin family, said with a smile, and his eyes did not hide his appreciation for Lin Cheng. Can you not appreciate it? A fourth-grade elixir master who is less than twenty years old still has the possibility of becoming a seventh-grade elixir master or above in the future, this is definitely a real genius potential stock!
As long as their Lin family can pull Lin Cheng in place, or even make Lin Cheng a member of the Lin family.
In the future, this Beiguanfu City will be dominated by his Lin family!
"The Lin family master has won the award, I was just lucky to follow a good master. I'm ashamed to say that what I learned from Master and his old man is less than one percent of his own!"
Lin Cheng smiled slightly and said.
"Oh, dare to ask who Master Lin is?"
Lin Wenhai's eyes flashed slightly, and he said softly.
Since he was able to cultivate a genius disciple who defeated the descendants of Zhang Tianshi, it was very likely that Lin Yuan's master was also an elixir celestial master! This is not a big deal, Lin Yuan's status immediately skyrocketed several times in Lin Wenhai's heart, if he could get Lin Cheng, wouldn't it mean that he could still have a relationship with a powerful elixir celestial master?
"The tutor has always been accustomed to idle clouds and wild cranes, and he keeps a low profile, so please forgive me for being inconvenient to reveal his name. ”
Lin Yan shook his head.
He was more and more glad that he had an idea that day, and fabricated a "master" out of thin air, otherwise many things would have become unreasonable now. After all, it was unbelievable that an elixir master who had no deep background and was also self-taught could defeat the descendants of Zhang Tianshi's family.
People are often only willing to believe what they want to believe in their hearts, and Lin Cheng followed their habitual thinking and made up a reasonable excuse for them.
"If that's the case, it's really a bit rude on my part......"
Lin Wenhai apologized.
He didn't think there was any loophole in Lin Yan's words, after all, there were too many people with strange tempers in this world. If Lin Cheng really revealed his name so easily, he would feel strange.
Immediately, he changed his words and said, "I don't know if Gongzi Lin has a marriage match?"
"Matching?"
Lin Yan was stunned, he really didn't expect the other party to ask such a question.
Almost subconsciously, he couldn't help but look at Lin Yanran, who was blushing slightly. Take a closer look, tonight's Lin Yanran actually changed into a rather delicate red dress, and even her pretty face is slightly powdered, which is obviously different from the simple makeup on weekdays.
Is this to use his daughter to pull him into the Lin family?
I have to say that this Lin family master is really willing to spend his blood.
In fact, Lin Wenhai was not as mercenary as Lin Cheng imagined, and before making this decision, he also asked his wife to ask Lin Yanran's opinion.
As the saying goes, beauty loves heroes.
Today, Lin Yan defeated Zhang Yuan, who came to challenge the signboard of the Elixir Alliance, with a strong attitude, which had already left a deep impression on Lin Yanran's heart. Moreover, Lin Yan himself is not bad looking, and his personality seems to be quite stable, so it is natural that Lin Yanran, a young girl with a young spring, has a good impression of her.
But it's a pity that after all, it's the falling flowers that are intentionally ruthless.
"Master Lin, I won't tell you, I already have a wife. ”
Lin Cheng said lightly.
This can be regarded as a relatively direct refusal, regardless of his feelings for Lin Yanran for the time being, he doesn't have the heart to think about this kind of thing at all now. Moreover, even if he and Qin Yutong were a husband and wife in name only, everything the other party had done for him before had some touch in his heart.
Now that Qin Yutong and Xiaomeng are still in danger, the most important thing he should do is to improve his strength as soon as possible and return to Xuanyue Sect to rescue them in the shortest possible time.
As soon as he thought of this, Lin Cheng no longer had the heart to stay in the Lin family. He confessed, and regardless of how ugly Lin Wenhai's faces were, he left the Lin family directly.
There are some things that must be rejected decisively, and you can't drag the mud and water, otherwise you will only harm yourself.
......
Lin Cheng walked alone in the moonlit streets, and the streets were silent. He was now going to stay at the Fengyun Inn, which was the inn he was familiar with.
Who knew that at this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Shout.
The cool breeze was cold, and a cold light broke through the void at an extremely fast speed, it was a soft sword that shimmered with a cold glow!
The goal of Jian Feng is exactly Lin Cheng's heart!
"Killer!"
Lin Cheng was shocked, and he immediately reacted. This is not the first time he has been assassinated, and he has more or less some experience. I saw that he instantly pulled out the Qingyun Sword behind his back, and when he turned around, he stabbed it with a sword!
Clang!
The sound of gold and iron striking suddenly sounded, and the soft sword was suddenly blocked, and the violent true power that could be transmitted from the other party's body still shook Lin Cheng's body fiercely!
His internal organs, which had just healed, suddenly came with a sharp pain. He only felt a sweetness in his throat, and he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood, but he pressed it hard.
"Huh?"
The killer couldn't help but let out a sound of surprise when he saw that he had failed to kill Lin Cheng with one blow.
