“…”
On horseback, Saint Liu blushed slightly and gritted her teeth as she said, "You...are unreasonable!"
"Your life or death has nothing to do with me!"
"If you are willing to hand over the Xuanyang Heart Technique, it's up to you!"
After saying that, Liu Su turned around and angrily stopped looking at Lin Jiangnian. Lin Jiangnian looked at Liu Su, who was running away in a panic, and was obviously feeling guilty.
This woman says one thing and means another!
After a while, Lin Jiangnian slowly caught up and walked side by side with Liu Su.
Turning his head, he saw Liu Su staring straight ahead, expressionless. The cold wind occasionally blew up her black hair, revealing a beautiful and cold face.
The red clothes are like fire!
Stunningly cold!
Lin Jiangnian stared at him for a moment and chuckled, "Are you angry?"
No response!
"It seems like he's really angry!"
Lin Jiangnian spoke slowly, "Your worries are indeed correct. If the Xuanyang Heart Technique were to spread, it would naturally not be a good thing for our Lin family. I won't do that."
"However, if your leader insists, he will definitely not let me go unless I hand it over."
Lin Jiangnian paused and said, "So, this Xuanyang Heart Technique must be given to him, but... not completely!"
Liu Su turned her head and stared at him without saying anything.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Liu Su's eyes were cold as she stared at Lin Jiangnian silently. After a while, she asked in a cold voice, "What else did you do?"
Lin Jiangnian waved his hands: "I didn't do anything!"
"Oh!"
Liu Su sneered, obviously not believing it.
"Are you sure you didn't do anything?"
Seeing Liu Su staring at him intently and a sneer on her face, Lin Jiangnian sighed, "As expected, I can't hide anything from you."
"What did you do?"
Liu Su ignored Lin Jiangnian's flattery and questioned again.
She knew very well that with Lin Jiangnian's character, he would never do such a thing that would put him at a disadvantage.
This guy is very scheming and extremely... insidious!
Even though she had clearly cast a spell on him and controlled him, and his life was in her hands, this guy still dared to bargain with her and even attempted to secretly escape from her control.
Still want to plot against her!
Therefore, Liu Su would never believe that Lin Jiangnian had no backup plan.
Facing the threat from the leader just now, Liu Su didn't believe that Lin Jiangnian would hand over the Xuanyang Heart Technique so easily... He must have other plans.
This guy is not so easy to talk to!
"Nothing."
Lin Jiangnian continued to wave his hands. Meeting Liu Su's angry gaze, he waved his hands and explained, "Sometimes, not doing anything is better than doing it!"
Liu Su frowned: "What do you mean?"
“Literally!”
Liu Su was silent, thinking carefully for a moment. After a while, her eyes turned angry.
"Forget it if you don't want to talk about it!"
Liu Su rode away expressionlessly.
Lin Jiangnian smiled and followed him.
"Why does your leader wear a mask? Is he afraid to show his face?"
Lin Jiangnian asked.
Liu Su had a cold face and did not answer.
"Your Celestial God Sect isn't a major sect, but your leader's martial arts skills are unfathomable. Such masters are rare in the world... He doesn't dare to show his true face. Is he afraid that his other identity will be exposed?"
There are only a few possibilities for why he dares not reveal his true face. Whichever possibility is it, it means that this leader is not a simple person.
It is even very likely that his original identity is too shocking and he dare not reveal it.
But the problem is, there are only a few top masters in the world, which one could this leader of the Heavenly God Sect be?
Liu Su couldn't answer this question either. She said coldly, "I don't know."
"Even you don't know?"
Lin Jiangnian was a little surprised: "You haven't checked?"
"There aren't many top masters in the world, but it's not ruled out that there are some masters who are not on the list..."
Having said that, Liu Su hesitated and frowned.
After all these years, she still hasn't found out the leader's origins.
The leader always dressed like this whenever he met her and never showed up.
To this day, Liu Su is not even sure whether the leader is a man or a woman.
What surprised Liu Su was that she had seen the leader in action, but she had no idea about the origin of his martial arts.
This is a little unusual!
Liu Su had also suspected that the leader might be a descendant of Southern Xinjiang. After all, the Celestial God Cult originated in Southern Xinjiang and had close ties to the region. However, after a secret investigation, he discovered that the leader seemed to have no connection to Southern Xinjiang.
This is also weird!
Unbelievable.
Lin Jiangnian looked at her and shook his head, saying, "That's hard to say. All martial arts in the world have different paths but the same destination. Everything has its own path. Without the guidance of a famous teacher or from a prominent family, it is rare to become a top master..."
"For thousands of years, there have been few geniuses like this!"
It is almost impossible for ordinary people to become top masters by practicing martial arts without any background!
Practicing martial arts is not only about talent, but also about foundation!
The leader of the Tianshen Sect has unknown martial arts skills, and is very likely a first-class master!
To become a master of the Grandmaster level, one cannot rely solely on talent to reach this level.
No matter how gifted one is, without top-notch mental skills and martial arts, and without sufficient natural treasures and rare herbs to assist in cultivation, it is almost impossible to reach the realm of a grandmaster.
And these are not something that ordinary families and ordinary forces can afford!
In this case, the leader of the Tianshen Sect must be no small figure, but it is not clear which force in the world he belongs to?
"If we exclude the imperial court, the scope will be much smaller."
Lin Jiangnian was thinking.
Either they are the forces in the martial arts world, the sects and families, or they are the few hidden masters in the world.
“Maybe we can check it out!”
Lin Jiangnian thought about it before speaking.
Liu Su raised her eyes and glanced at him: "Can you find out?"
“You can give it a try!”
Lin Jiangnian thought for a moment and said, "The intelligence capabilities of Prince Lin's Mansion are not too bad."
Liu Su didn't say anything.
Not too bad?
The intelligence capabilities of the Prince Lin's Mansion are considered top-notch in the entire Daning Dynasty, no worse than the court's henchmen.
That Prince Lin had established an intelligence network in every province, closely monitoring intelligence trends in each state. Besides avoiding suspicion in the capital, the Prince Lin's influence in other provinces and counties within the dynasty was terrifying.
If the intelligence capabilities of Prince Lin's Mansion are only considered average, what about the intelligence capabilities of other forces?
play house?
Liu Su wanted to say something but stopped.
"No matter what, he wants my Lin family's Xuanyang Map, so we have to be on guard."
While the Lin Palace wasn't particularly afraid of Grandmasters, they couldn't be underestimated. A Grandmaster wouldn't necessarily change the tide of events, but their terrifying power was enough to intimidate any faction.
"But what exactly is this Xuanyang Diagram?"
What use is there to him for this treasure that even the leader of the Heavenly God Cult is so eager to get?
Improve strength?
still……
Any other use?
Liu Su looked at him quietly for a few seconds, then looked away and looked forward.
"The leader will look for you again."
Her voice was calm, but one could still hear a hint of worry in her voice.
"Are you concerned about me again?"
"you!"
Liu Suqi's pretty face turned slightly red. How could this guy associate everything with this?
How could she care about him?
Why should she care about him?
She simply...
Not knowing what he was thinking about, Liu Su gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Whatever you want!"
"Your life or death has nothing to do with me!"
Liu Su said this and left without looking back.
This time, there was no looking back.
Lin Jiangnian couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the back of Saint Liu, who was wearing a red dress and riding away on horseback.
This Saint Lady Liu is even more arrogant than a kite!
It seems that it is not so easy to subdue and take her down.
However, Lin Jiangnian was confident that this Saint Lady Liu would not be able to escape from his grasp.
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian slowly rode back to the capital.
On the official road, the wind was cold and bleak, the place was deserted, snow remained, and the world was filled with loneliness.
Just as Lin Jiangnian was walking back slowly, murderous intent suddenly came silently.
A sharp cold wind blew in my face, and the moment it approached, murderous intent suddenly appeared in the cold wind.
There was no one around originally, but a shadow suddenly jumped out from the grass by the roadside, and with a flash of cold light, it fell from the sky and headed straight for Lin Jiangnian.
It was extremely fast and arrived in the blink of an eye.
Lin Jiangnian, who was on horseback, suddenly turned his head, fixed his eyes, and slapped out with his palm.
A round and hot breath rushed out!
"Bang!"
An explosion like cracking bamboo echoed, followed by a scream. The figure in the air plummeted, landing headfirst in the snow.
The blood dyed the white snow red!
There was a brief silence all around!
Such a neat and clean scene makes people unable to react.
Sitting on horseback, Lin Jiangnian put his hands under his sleeves, looked around, and a sneer appeared on his face: "Since you are here, why hide and act sneaky?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow appeared in Lin Jiangnian's sight!
At the same time, several figures appeared from all sides of the official road and surrounded Lin Jiangnian.
A fierce murderous intent permeated the sky and earth.
Lin Jiangnian, sitting on the horse, was like a turtle in a jar!
Lin Jiangnian glanced at the figures around him, finally settling on the figure in front of him.
"Prince Lin, you are really hiding your incompetence!"
The figure in front spoke in a low, cold voice.
Lin Jiangnian's eyes were calm, and despite the dangers all around him, his face showed no sign of nervousness or worry. He chuckled softly, "Did your four elders ask you to come and assassinate this prince?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the face of the black figure in front of him changed slightly. Then he sneered, "Prince Lin is indeed clever. We are here on the orders of the Fourth Elder to take your life!"
"Take my life?"
Lin Jiangnian raised his eyebrows and chuckled, "I am your leader's friend. How can I explain to your leader if I kill you?"
"friend?"
The black shadow clearly didn't believe it and sneered, "How could our leader be friends with you?"
"You don't believe it?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at him.
"What evidence do you have?" The shadow stared at him.
Lin Jiangnian sneered: "Who are you? Do I need to explain myself to you?"
The shadow's expression suddenly changed, and he stared coldly at Lin Jiangnian. Seeing that the Prince of Lin's expression remained normal, his heart couldn't help but waver slightly.
Why is this boy so calm and indifferent?
They deliberately followed and ambushed the saint all the way, and only decided to take action after making sure that the saint had left.
There was no one around at the moment, and the Prince Lin was all alone. Why didn't he show any panic when facing them?
Is he too confident in his martial arts, or...
Is he really friends with the leader, so he has nothing to fear?
Suspicion gradually grew in the shadow's heart. If this person was really a friend of the leader...
No, impossible!
The Tianshen Sect and the Linwang Palace have an irreconcilable feud. How could the leader be friends with him?
Thinking of this, the black shadow sneered: "No matter how you argue, today is the day you die!"
"Kill him!"
The black shadow stopped talking nonsense. As soon as he finished speaking, the masters surrounding Lin Jiangnian rushed forward.
Cold light flashed from all directions.
Four masters armed with swords attacked from all directions. Lin Jiangnian, who was sitting on horseback, looked up, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and his aura suddenly changed.
The moment the four men approached, Lin Jiangnian jumped up, stepped on the horse's back, and used the horse's back to leap into the air, avoiding the encirclement of the four men.
At the same time, the internal force surged under the sleeves of his robe, and he leaped into the air and suddenly approached the nearest member of the Celestial God Cult.
The cultist's pupils suddenly shrank, and he hurriedly blocked with the long knife in his hand.
"Bang!"
The tremendous internal force surged like a blazing fire, knocking the believer away.
The believer fell headfirst into the snow, spitting blood, his face pale, his eyes full of horror.
It seemed that he had never expected that the martial arts of the Prince of Lin was far beyond his expectations!
So powerful?
He couldn't even block a single move? !
"Be careful... He's very skilled in martial arts!"
After Lin Jiangnian succeeded in his attack, he quickly retreated and avoided another round of encirclement.
At the same time, a knife appeared in his hand.
Taken from the cultist just now!
With a knife in his hand, Lin Jiangnian's aura rose to a new level.
The remaining few people were shocked when they saw this scene, their faces extremely solemn. This Prince of Lin had killed two of their masters in a single move.
This boy must not be underestimated!
Everyone was on high alert, staring at the Prince of Lin, holding their swords tightly.
"kill!"
Murderous intent permeated the cold wind.
Lin Jiangnian held a long knife and faced the crisis without fear.
He is no longer the same person he was before.
These people in front of him are just stepping stones for him to become a top master!
…
Outside the crowd, the black shadow had a solemn expression on his face, staring at Lin Jiangnian who was surrounded by the crowd.
His face gradually became uglier!
They were fooled!
Seriously underestimated the martial arts of this Prince Lin!
To be precise, no one had expected that the Prince of Lin would be skilled in martial arts, and to be so powerful!
But now, they have no way out!
The Fourth Elder wanted to kill the man in front of him. If he let him escape today, it would be extremely difficult to kill him next time because he would be protected by the Saint.
Fortunately, although the martial arts skills of this Prince Lin were beyond his expectations, they were only around the fifth rank.
Killing him is not difficult.
The black shadow stared at the surrounded Lin Jiangnian, it was time for him to take action!
Just as the black shadow took a step and was about to launch a sneak attack, he suddenly seemed to notice something and turned his head abruptly.
He didn't know when there was another person beside him.
Silently!
"Who are you?!"
The black shadow was horrified and didn't even realize when there was another person next to him!
A simple-looking man, about thirty years old, with a fat face and a plump body, was looking at him with a smile.
The smile was kind and full of kindness.
Even his tone seemed kind.
"You're asking me?"
The man laughed, and the fat on his face squeezed into a ball, making him look even more foolish.
So friendly!
"I, of course, am here to kill you."
