While a few people were eating, they could hear the storyteller playing, singing, and dancing in the restaurant, but the more common sounds were the people sitting here whispering or talking loudly.
Lin Xin listened carefully. This restaurant was very popular, and it was also a place he specially selected to obtain the latest information.
After listening to it for a while, there are not many rumors in the world of cultivation, but there are a lot of rumors in the so-called world of mortals.
What about the flying fox fighting the Qingquan Sword, the hero Huang Sheng being chased and besieged by evil masters, signs of monsters being reported somewhere nearby, etc.
They are all irrelevant to what he wants to know.
He hasn't been back for a long time, and what he wants to hear most is naturally the news about Lingxin Villa and Songlin Sword Sect.
After carefully sifting through the food, after half a meal, another group of people came into the restaurant. They were all dressed as swordsmen, wearing white clothes and green turbans. There were four people, half male and half male, and they sat down and ordered a table of dishes.
"I've had enough of this damn weather. It's still sunny in the morning, but it's rainy in the afternoon. I forgot to bring an umbrella this time when the master called me out, and I got soaked in the rain. Why have I been so unlucky recently?"
"
A middle-aged man put his sword on the table and cursed.
"I don't know where the receptionist has gone. Have all the branches here been taken over by evil spirits? It's so damn unlucky." Another person also said unhappily.
"According to the territorial boundaries, this is the territory of the Hua family of the Songlin Sword Sect. Be careful of your words and deeds." Another quiet woman whispered.
"So what? I heard that the Songlinhua family is now tightly entangled by the Yanyangmen Lingxin Villa. They can't be separated. Their strength has been weakened a lot because of the years of fighting.
The four major sects, including the Pine Forest Sword Sect, lost six Yuanjing Ancestors in the last second battle to eliminate demons. They are no longer the famous sects they used to be. If it weren't for the time limit defined by Zhongfu Tianyun Dao, hehe."
"You can't say that. I heard my master mentioned that although the Pine Forest Sword Sect has lost two Yuan Jings, the camel is still bigger than the horse. The top formations used to suppress the sect are still there, but their vitality has been severely damaged.
"
Another young girl spoke in a mature and mature manner, showing a mental age that did not match her appearance.
"Hey. That's nice to say. If it weren't for the internal strife in the battle to eliminate demons, why would the Pine Forest Sword Sect be like this? If it were my Dragon Crown Sect, we wouldn't even have time to unite, so we wouldn't be able to push the masters under our sect out."
Lin Xin gently put down his chopsticks, and with a thought in mind, he stood up and walked towards the table of monks. However, he signaled to his subordinates not to get up, and he walked over alone.
"Are some of the famous Longguanmen disciples?"
A look of admiration naturally appeared on his face, and he greeted with a gentle smile.
"Who is your Excellency?"
"I am Honghua, but this is my first time in Nanfu."
Lin Xin talked freely, made up an unreasonable name for himself, and chatted directly with several people.
These people were obviously young people who had just debuted. They were complimented a few times and felt very proud. They immediately started chatting with Lin Xin.
Lin Xin just talked a little bit and learned from a few people about the changes here after he left Nanfu.
There were roughly no changes, and the Nanfu sect was still the same. It was just that after he left, in order to get rid of the insect mother and eliminate the plague from the root, all the sects worked together to start a second demon elimination plan.
This time, the four famous sects, Plum Blossom Sect, Yufeng Sect, Golden Jade Sect, and Pine Forest Sword Sect, united with some small sects, and under the leadership of Tianyundao for the second time, they worked together to encircle and suppress the insect mother deep underground.
The first encirclement and suppression suffered heavy losses, and all factions were fully prepared for this demon elimination operation.
But the ending was still extremely tragic.
Six Yuanjings fell from the four sects. There was even a true king among them. The strength of the four sects was greatly reduced.
Although the insect mother was successfully killed and the spread of the plague was suppressed, the strength of the righteous path shrank, while the path to eliminate demons grew. Now the four gates have each shrunk their power.
Seeing Lin Xin's extraordinary demeanor, these four people all wanted to make friends. They actually told the reason why their group came to the Songlin Sword Sect's territory this time.
It turns out that due to the weakening of the Songlin Sword Sect in the Song Dynasty, the old rival Suzaku Holy Court, which had been eyeing it with covetous eyes, took advantage of the situation and planted nails in the territory of the Song Dynasty in an attempt to expand.
Taikun Zhenren, one of the three great masters of the Songlin Sword Sect, held a birthday banquet. On the surface, it was a birthday banquet, but in fact it was to gather his comrades to fight against the increasingly powerful Suzaku Holy Court.
So far, many righteous monks have responded, including many casual cultivators who are familiar with the Songlin Sword Sect.
The other three sects also sent envoys and representatives to support.
But at this critical moment, the Suzaku Holy Court unexpectedly revealed the secret of its alliance with the top power in the East Palace, the Demon Palace.
It is rumored that Zhongtian Demon Palace will also send congratulatory gifts at this birthday banquet.
This tit-for-tat confrontation pits good and evil directly against each other again.
Such a grand occasion also attracted many experienced experts from all walks of life to gather together, and they, the Dragon Crown Sect, also came to watch the excitement.
"Taikun birthday banquet" Lin Xin pondered.
He broke through Yuanjing in the outer realm, but he has not yet confirmed his current level among the Yuanjing monks.
This birthday banquet is a good opportunity to clearly see where you are at.
The Yuanjing level is similar to other levels. The actual combat power does not all depend on the realm. Between victory and defeat, the realm is only one aspect. What determines more life and death are magical powers, magic weapons, and the most critical soul realm.
Monk Yuan Jing is like a rabbit wearing a tortoise shell. He must either be smashed to death with a hammer with great force, or let him die of exhaustion. Otherwise, once he is caught in a war of attrition, at the speed of a rabbit, he can pull out at any time.
run.
You must know that most Yuanjings have understanding and control of space rules, and their escape techniques are extremely powerful. A successful escape can even span dozens of miles. This is why Yuanjings generally do not offend each other to death.
Perverts like Lin Xin are an alien species.
He is more like those top Yuanjings with the bloodline of mythical beasts. Even if their realm is not high, they can rely on bloodline magical powers or tyrannical attacks to obtain combat power far beyond their realm.
This is also the reason why there are many realms in the Zhongfu that are at the level of true kings, but they cannot make it to the Heavenly Ranking list.
"Speaking of this, Taikun's birthday banquet is also a good opportunity to truly measure and demonstrate the potential power of the Songlin Sword Sect. If the strength is shown to be strong enough, then Songlin should not have much trouble this time. But if the strength shown is not enough to suppress Suzaku
Holy Court, I’m afraid it will be difficult to get through the difficulties this time.”
Among the four members of the Dragon Crown Sect, the middle-aged man with the foulest mouth shook his head.
"Junior Brother Yue, you talk so much nonsense. This senior high-level game has no place for pawns like us to speak. If seniors hear it, I'm afraid it will cause trouble." Among the two women, the calm one said calmly.
His words made the man's face turn red, but he did not dare to refute.
"I made you laugh." The woman smiled towards Lin Xinyou.
"It's okay. Brother Yue is just a bit more straightforward." Lin Xin didn't care at all. The woman's name was Zhou Xiaolu. Among these people, she was the oldest and the head of the four.
"As far as I know, the Songlin Sword Sect has three supreme masters. Now that two of them have fallen, is it possible that the so-called True Monarch has also died?"
"I don't know about this, but I heard that there was a reclusive Supreme Being who appeared in Songlin, and there are four Supreme Beings in total. But what is the specific situation now, I don't know."
Zhou Xiaolu shook her head slightly.
"What? Brother Hong also plans to join in the fun?"
Lin Xin smiled.
"I plan to go and have a look, but I have to go to the surrounding area to do some errands first. I have an old relationship with the nearby Lingxin Villa and I am planning to go visit."
After all, the Songlin Sword Sect was where he once came from. Although their friendship was not deep, Dugu Lin, senior brother Ji Lu and his wife must go and see it.
Two of the Supreme Elders have died, and now the Pine Forest Sword Sect has obviously reached a critical juncture. Life is hard, so I must go, but before that, I have to go back to the villa to have a look.
"Lingxin Villa?" Du Haixin, the young man next to Zhou Xiaolu, was slightly startled. "Brother Hong, are you friends with the people from Lingxin Villa? For Songtai Kun's birthday banquet, it is said that there is also a team starting from Lingxin Villa, so it will still be possible by then
goodbye."
These few people started chatting with Lin Xin, which made Kekesai, Inmantuo and others behind them a little impatient.
These are all transformed monsters from the outside world, and they don't know much about the rules and regulations in human society.
He also didn't understand Lin Xin's intention of quietly returning to the villa because he didn't want to draw attention to himself.
In their opinion, it is a complete waste of time for the master to waste time communicating slowly with these weak insects.
This is why Lin Xin does not intend to let them come forward to collect intelligence.
Since their group arrived at Nanfu, they quietly released the empty boat in an uninhabited area on the border, allowing the remaining crew members to escape quickly.
In addition, the banshee queen was allowed to stay in the slope to recuperate, and the group took Lin Xiaoyu and Ye Qingchang into the territory of the Song Dynasty.
There was no delay along the way, and we went straight to Lingxin Villa.
As soon as I arrived, I got news about Taikun's birthday party.
After gathering enough information, Lin Xin and the four of them said goodbye. Zhou Xiaolu and the four of them also had enough to eat and drink. They stood up to say goodbye and left the restaurant.
Lin Xin returned to his seat, picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp.
Glancing at the people present, Lin Xiaoyu looked indifferent, and Ye Qingchang looked miserable. Yinmantuo, Kexai, White Snake, and the two pink and jade twins were all transformed into monsters from the outside world, which made no sense at all.
According to the rules of the human race, it is okay for them to kill people, but as for collecting intelligence?
I guess I can only search for souls.
He planned to return quietly. The team searching for the secret treasure in the Zhongfu might have already sneaked into the Nanfu. Making a big fanfare would not do any good except attracting attention and exposing his whereabouts.
"Looks like we have to go back as soon as possible."
Lin Xin sighed.
"Master, why should you worry? Do you think there are too many bugs here and they are too noisy? How about I kill them all for you?"
Kekesai had a cold face. Among the several transformed monsters, he was the most fanatical about Lin Xin. After being enhanced by the strange attributes, he even regarded Lin Xin as his only true god.
"Yes, yes, my subordinates also feel that these bugs are so weak that they dare to come within a hundred miles of the master. This is simply treason. Not only will they be killed, but they will also be sentenced to death! They will be skinned and cramped, bled and eaten, and their souls will be forged."
The pain of a thousand cuts!"
The two twins also said in unison with ferocious faces.
They were originally undecided, but recently they have been increasingly brainwashed by Kekesai's various fanaticisms, and have become somewhat similar to fanatic believers. (To be continued.)
