Chapter 449: Guessing is everyone's interest
"Lao Liang, what are you talking about! Senior Brother Lin has just returned, you have to fight, didn't you almost fall down last time, be careful!"
Just when Liang Yicheng was at a loss, Li Junfeng and Li Yao walked over.
Before Liang Yicheng could reply, someone said in surprise: "What? Senior Brother Liang was dropped by Senior Brother Lin?"
"Senior Brother Liang lost to Senior Brother Lin?"
"Senior Brother Lin is already the number one in the Houtu Academy?"
The more the people spread it, the more outrageous it became, and the news was already very different from the truth before it left this place.
Li Junfeng didn't expect everyone to react like this, he coughed lightly and said, "Senior Brother Lin, are you okay, after separating from Xun Qingcheng, how did you get out of danger?"
"Run! Those earthworms are very fast underground, average speed on the ground, but there are too many of them, so they run for a long time. β
"You've been running in the unknown for most of the day?"
"I'm afraid that I will be involved with the same sect that entered the underground palace, and I have been wandering around the edge of the cultivation domain!"
Li Yao on the side had doubts, he and Li Junfeng had been looking around in the cultivation domain but didn't see Lin Xiuqi, and they didn't even find any traces, he was about to ask, Li Junfeng pressed his shoulder and said: "Senior brother really understands the righteousness, having a monk like junior brother is a blessing of the Houtu Academy!"
"I've seen Senior Sister Xia!"
Not far away, someone began to greet him, and many people moved when they heard the sound, and they all saluted Xia Lingyan.
Xia Lingyan walked lightly to Lin Xiuqi but did not speak, but looked up and down before speaking: "What chance did the junior brother encounter, why is his breath so full?"
Lin Xiuqi was slightly stunned, and said in his heart: "Brother Insect, the Curtain Covering Technique has failed?
"Boy, cultivation can be suppressed, but your spiritual power is already different from ordinary monks after nine spiritual brewing, Xia Lingyan is also talented, and it is common for him to perceive it. β
"Sure enough, no matter how strong the spell is, it can't hide my light!"
β......β
At this moment, I don't know who said, "See Elder Luo!"
Luo Jiuhua appeared in mid-air, looked at Lin Xiuqi and said with a happy face: "Senior nephew Lin, this trip has gained a lot!"
He was a mid-foundation building monk, so he naturally felt that Lin Xiuqi's aura was different from before, although he didn't know the specific changes, but he had a feeling that maybe Lin Xiuqi had surpassed him in some way, at this time, he knew that he might not be able to leave the other party with all his strength, and the speed of progress was a little terrifying.
Xia Lingyan suspected that Lin Xiuqi had got a chance, and Luo Jiuhua said that Lin Xiuqi had gained a lot, and everyone looked at Lin Xiuqi curiously, waiting for an answer.
"Uncle Luo, Senior Sister Xia, if it is a harvest, maybe it is to escape around the underground palace in order to save your life. If it were the same as before, I would not have been able to stay in the dungeon for so long, let alone stay in a fighting state. After this battle, I feel that I am more comfortable with the use of spiritual power, perhaps for this reason. β
Everyone nodded one after another, there was no doubt that the battle of life and death could indeed greatly improve the strength of the monk, but Luo Jiuhua and Xia Lingyan were a little puzzled, they felt that Lin Xiuqi's changes were not only in terms of spiritual power control.
"Senior Brother Lin, the concentration of the forbidden aura has surged before, but now it has become weak again, do you know the reason?"
"I also felt it, and if it weren't for the change in the forbidden aura, I wouldn't have been able to get out of danger. At that time, those lava earthworms turned their heads into the depths, did not know what they felt, and then all left, just when the concentration of the forbidden breath increased, and it became thin again...... I was in a hurry and didn't pay much attention!"
Xia Lingyan still wanted to ask carefully, but Luo Jiuhua opened his mouth and said: "Okay, okay, it's already good to come back safely! You all go to cultivate, now that there is an abnormality in the underground palace, those who enter must remember to be cautious and not to venture deeper." β
"Yes!"
Xun Qingcheng walked up to Lin Xiuqi and said in a gentle tone: "Senior Brother Lin, you are finally back, which makes me so worried!"
"Bothered!"
Lin Xiuqi's tone was a little cold, and everyone suddenly remembered what Xun Qingcheng said before, the two seemed to be fleeing separately, who escaped first and who went for help, at this time, looking at Lin Xiuqi's attitude, could there be something else hidden?
No one dared to ask directly, except for one person.
Li Junfeng opened his mouth and said, "Senior Brother Lin, did you separate from Senior Brother Xun when you encountered the earthworm in the underground palace?" Or did you ...... Is there anything else?"
Xun Qingcheng secretly screamed in his heart, since Lin Xiuqi detoxified Li Junfeng, for some reason, Li Junfeng became Lin Xiuqi's "diehard", for Lin Xiuqi not to be afraid of offending anyone, if Lin Xiuqi said his behavior in public, things would be in trouble.
He was about to speak, but Lin Xiuqi preemptively said: "I escaped separately, but there is an earthworm that seems to recognize me, as if it was the one I was injured last time, so they all came to chase me!
"Haha!
Xun Qingcheng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he suddenly couldn't understand Lin Xiuqi, if it was him, he would definitely expose the other party in public, where would he cover for the enemy, could this person really be a person who repaid grievances with virtue?
No way! He must have a conspiracy! Yes! He must have a bad relationship with the Dugu family, so he doesn't want to offend me and my father, and he wants to drag us into the water!
The more Xun Qingcheng thought about it, the more likely it became, if Lin Xiuqi had a friendly relationship with the Dugu family, how could he stay in the Five Elements Sect, how could he worship his father as a teacher, at this moment, he felt that everything he had figured out, it turned out that Lin Xiuqi was really just a person with no background.
"Senior Brother Lin, my father has a few words entrusted to me, can you go back to the cave with me for a while?"
"Good!"
In all fairness, Lin Xiuqi was reluctant to go, but he still had to give the face of the cheap master.
The two entered the No. 5 Cave Mansion all the way, and Li Junfeng also wanted to go together, but was stopped by Xun Qingcheng.
"Senior Brother Li, my father has a few secret words to pass on to Senior Brother Lin, and I ask Senior Brother to wait here for a while!"
Li Junfeng looked at Lin Xiuqi, and Lin Xiuqi said, "It's okay! Senior brother, go get busy first!"
"Li is waiting here, if there is something, just shout!"
Xun Qingcheng's face was a little ugly, Li Junfeng's words were clearly hinting that he might attack Lin Xiuqi, he didn't show his emotions on his face, and secretly decided that he would give Li Junfeng a little color on the day he built the foundation.
When the two entered the cave, Lin Xiuqi saw another figure, and he said casually: "It turned out to be Xiao Jianyu! Why are you here?"
"Presumptuous!"
"You still want to be beaten?"
"You ......"
After a few short conversations between the two, Xun Qingcheng on the side was stunned.
What is the situation?Dugu Jianyu was beaten by Lin Xiuqi? It doesn't seem to be the kind between the two of them, the Dugu family monk can only endure being called by his name so childishly, could it be that Lin Xiuqi beat Dugu Jianyu?Does he have a way to resist that ** spirit worm!?
Lin Xiuqi naturally didn't know Xun Qingcheng's thoughts, he sat on the chair unceremoniously, and said casually: "What are you doing here?
Dugu Jianyu did not answer immediately, but looked at Xun
Qingcheng, the other party instantly understood, turned around and entered the other room.
"Lin Xiuqi, the family has no intention of harming, it's just that you are related to the Holy Worm, and you really can't let it go, so you better go back with me." β
"Yo, this time it's not a direct move, there's progress!"
Dugu Jianyu didn't answer, it's not that he doesn't want to do it directly, the key is that it's useless, the infatuated butterfly is ineffective, and his own combat power is not as good as the other party, although now he is already in the late stage of smart cultivation, Lin Xiuqi is only in the middle stage, but the moment he saw Lin Xiuqi, he felt an inexplicable pressure, even worse than when he first saw him, if he made a move, he would be defeated.
"Lin Xiuqi, my Dugu family is a super family with a long reputation in the cultivation world, how can it be compared to the Five Elements Sect and the Yin and Yang Academy, if you are interested in cultivating, leaving with me is the right way!"
"What if I don't want to cultivate?"
"Go back with me, if you have nothing to do with the Holy Worm, I will naturally let you leave, and I will reward you with many rare treasures!"
"Alas, do you think in your mind that monks must like to cultivate, and if they don't like it, they must need treasures and enjoy a lifetime of leisure!"
"Isn't it? No mortal wants to be rich all his life!"
"That's what you came to in the mortal world?"
"That's right!"
Lin Xiuqi didn't refute, but said thoughtfully: "Maybe you're right, it's me who is a little abnormal, what kind of treasures are you talking about, and I also like the cultivation resources, but not to fight hard, at least for now." Also, your guarantee is not credible at all, not to mention the last time you did it directly, if I go to the Dugu family, you want to dissect me, you want to break the contract, can I resist?"
"How can my dignified Dugu family not believe in their words!"
"Can you represent the Dugu family? Don't be naΓ―ve! If the benefits are big enough, what's the point of ruining the contract! When the time comes, a group of powerful old guys keep saying sorry, saying that they have failed me, and saying like to report back in the next life, what can I do, what can you do. I appreciate your kind words and persuasions, but my own life is at stake, so I have to be cautious. Also, I have nothing to do with holy insects, whether you believe it or not, that's it!"
Lin Xiuqi got up and was about to leave, Dugu Jianyu showed a struggling look, he stood in front of Lin Xiuqi and said, "If the Holy Worm has nothing to do with you, why can you cultivate so quickly?"
"Silly child, you don't have to have a holy insect to cultivate quickly, luck is also very important. I was captured by Huang Jiheng of the True Immortal Palace, I was almost refined into a puppet, and I also accidentally obtained the toxin resistance of ordinary people, for you, the Jedi of nine deaths and one life may be just a place of chance for me, and at the same time, you keep saying that the prosperous era is coming, what's the problem with me cultivating faster? Also, can't I be a cultivation genius hidden among mortals?"
After a series of rhetorical questions, Dugu Jianyu was directly stunned.
What Lin Xiuqi said made sense, he had always believed that this person was related to the Holy Worm, if he was really just with excellent qualifications, it was not impossible for him to quickly improve his cultivation with extreme luck.
There was a speculation in the family before, Lin Xiuqi's luck was abnormal, otherwise how could he be possessed by the holy worm and still survive, in addition, what kind of power the holy worm has, others don't know, isn't it clear to the Dugu family?
Back then, with the help of a little holy insect power, an ancestor swept through the cultivation world, and he was completely invincible, if the holy insect was really related to this person, how could it only be to this extent.
Could it have been a family misunderstanding all along!?
Dugu Jianyu didn't stop Lin Xiuqi, his mind was a little messy, and he even hesitated whether he still had the need to continue persuading or taking action.
Of course, all this has nothing to do with Lin Xiuqi, at this time, he has another plan in his mind.
