Lin Yaoyang walked in front, followed closely by Lin Xin.●⌒,
The two of them walked quickly through the forest and soon arrived in front of a white statue.
The statue depicts a woman holding a purification bottle, wearing a white gauze, but without a face.
The entire sculpture fell crookedly in the grass, no one cared about it, and fine moss could be seen on the edges of the stones at the base.
The two of them stood nearby.
Lin Yaoyang waved his hand and fired a beam of white light. The beam fell on the ground and had no reaction.
She waited for a while, found no response, and fired another white light.
Then a milky white cube light curtain slowly rose around the two people.
"Not yet proficient," Lin Yaoyang shook his head and said helplessly.
"Okay. What did you want to say when you brought me here?" Lin Xin whispered. "You are the head of the family, and you can't be away from so many guests for so long. My father is gone, and everything depends on you."
Lin Yaoyang opened his mouth and paused. He wanted to say something, but still no sound came out.
After a short moment of silence, she slowly spoke.
"Brother, when my father was about to leave, you were the one he couldn't let go of the most."
Lin Xin did not answer, he knew that Lin Yaoyang would not just say this.
Lin Yaoyang fumbled in his sleeves and quickly took out a small silver ball and handed it to Lin Xin.
"This is what my father asked me to pass on to you."
"What?" Lin Xin took it and it was a small metal ball. There was some kind of special device inside, and it didn't look like it was solid.
"I don't know. But it should be a life-saving thing."
Lin Yaoyang walked to the statue and reached out to touch it.
"Mom and us are the only ones left at home now. So if you have any trouble in the future, you can come to me."
"I can protect myself." Lin Xin said calmly.
"Were you the one who killed the royal family members?" Lin Yaoyang didn't argue with this and moved directly to the previous matter.
"You killed the royal guards, which is equivalent to a slap in their face. This matter will not go away so easily."
"Then what can they do?" Lin Xin asked casually. At the level of Qiushi, the strongest thing is probably the thing in the seal. He really doesn't pay attention to other forces.
"They left the meeting early to show their attitude. But don't worry, I will handle this matter." Lin Yaoyang shook his head and replied. "Don't be so impulsive next time. You are still young. What if I change to a stronger guard? What if I hurt you?"
manage?"
Lin Xin smiled and nodded in agreement.
"Now that you are the head of the family, do you have any plans?"
"Everything is as usual, don't worry." Lin Yaoyang's eyes were a little deep. "Some people can't help but move on their own. Now is the adaptation period when I don't have perfect control over my strength, and it is also the stage where I am at my weakest. If I pass this stage, they
There will be no chance again.”
"So they will definitely take action." Lin Xin answered.
"Yes, I just need to wait." Lin Yaoyang said no more.
After gaining the power of the family leader, she seems to be much more mature than before.
*********************
Everything soon got back on track.
Lin Xin continued to practice hard in his small yard, while Lin Yaoyang officially began the busy and intense life of taking over the rights of the head of the family. He engaged in intrigues with the ambitious people who separated the family every day, and suffered several losses as time went by.
However, due to the tyranny of force, the situation was soon gradually regained.
In the late Qing Dynasty, Yuan became more and more taciturn. Fortunately, she had a dog, which was snow-white and half the height of a person. It ran around in the attic every day and was very lively.
In addition, Lin Yaoyang and Lin Xin also spent more time with her. A smile gradually appeared on her face.
And as time passed, and a few months later, some hidden undercurrents finally became uncontrollable and began to move.
***************
The mountain forest where the Lin family clan is located is the highest among the nearby peaks.
At this time, on a nearby mountain peak, a tall figure covered in dark green tights, including his head and face, was looking at the Lin family attic from a distance.
At night, it was already midnight, and this man's whole body was almost integrated into the darkness, as if he had no sense of existence, and he stood there quietly.
Several rabbits, known for their vigilance, jumped and ran past his feet without even noticing that there was someone standing next to them.
"The target this time is still quite heavily guarded, so we are willing to pay a lot of money to ask you to come out. Lin Yaoyang is not in the clan area now. Except for Uncle Duan and a few guards, he relies entirely on the sect leader's barrier to maintain safety."
Another voice explained in the darkness.
"How to arrange it?" the dark green figure asked in a low voice.
"You go capture Yuan Wanqing, and I'll capture Lin Sheri. These two are the most important characters to Lin Yaoyang. They must be in our hands." The voice in the darkness whispered.
"They believed in the barrier too much, so they didn't pay attention to the loophole. But we only have one chance."
"That's enough." The dark green figure replied in a low voice.
"Let's do it."
"kindness."
The two breaths instantly shot towards the distant mountain peaks.
****************
In the small yard, in the dormitory.
In the darkness, a pair of slightly bright eyes suddenly opened.
Lin Xin only slept for three hours a long time ago. If converted into hours, it would be one and a half hours. The rest of the time was spent practicing, practicing, practicing again.
He has developed an instinct, and practicing cultivation is as natural as eating, drinking, and sleeping.
In the darkness, Lin Xin's eyes narrowed slightly. With a snap, his whole person suddenly disappeared on the spot.
Not long after he disappeared, a breath passed by outside the room, stopped for a moment, and then continued moving, as if looking for something.
**********************
In the late Qing Dynasty, the candles were lightly covered with white embroidered lampshades.
He took the towel handed by the maid next to him and wiped his hands gently.
"Sakura, you go to bed first. I don't need you to guard me here."
She whispered to the maid.
"No, Madam, I'm not sleepy yet. I'll read for a while every day while I sleep with Madam." The maid, Sakura, replied with a smile.
"Good boy." Yuan Wanqing smiled and gently pinched Sakura's cheek.
She sat back at the table again and picked up the unfinished silk needlework in front of her.
Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew through the window, making a slight sound.
Sakura quickly ran over to close the window and plug in the bolt, but she didn't notice a blurry black figure standing on the tree branch in the yard outside.
The window was closed, but just for a short moment, it was enough for the black shadow outside to see clearly what was going on inside.
“This is it”
The black shadow slowly reached out and grasped the handle of the knife on his back.
But immediately, a group of patrolling guards slowly walked over.
"I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily."
One of the guards yawned.
"Probably, it's still so sweltering in the middle of the night. We'd better pray that it doesn't rain, otherwise we'll have to patrol in the rain. Are you tired?"
Another person said casually.
"Oh, I still miss when the master was here, everything was in order, unlike now, where everything is a bit messy."
"Please keep your voice down, the lady's room is right next to you."
A group of more than ten guards slowly left, and the torch they held quickly moved away to another corner.
The black shadow in the tree branch silently waited for the person to walk away and look again at the room where Wanqing was originally. With a tap of his foot, he flew towards the window on the second floor like a feather, as if he had no weight at all.
But just as he was about to fall to the window, a sword light stabbed soundlessly from below.
Chi!
The sword light was very fast, much faster than ordinary swordsmanship, and there seemed to be an obvious sense of paralysis on the surface. Before getting close to the black shadow, I felt the hair on my skin getting a little hairy.
"Thunder Sword!? We must fight quickly!"
His heart was racing, and the hilt of the sword behind his back suddenly came out of its sheath. It turned into a black line and faced the sword light below.
Ding ding ding ding.
The two of them exchanged dozens of blows in the blink of an eye, and the swords collided with each other, making a slight sound. But the strange thing was that all the sounds were blocked by something inexplicable and could not be transmitted far.
Another black shadow shot out of the darkness.
"Bold! How dare you trespass on our Lin family's land!"
This man also rushed towards the black shadow and used the same Thunder Sword. Surprisingly, he also had a cultivation level of over fifty levels and was evenly matched with the black shadow.
He was already a little tired of resisting one person, let alone two at this time.
At this time, the sound of the two fighting had already alerted the patrolling guards.
After just a few breaths of time, several powerful roars suddenly sounded, and they rushed towards this direction.
The black shadow was a little anxious, and he dealt with a few more moves like lightning, and then he was struck by a sword in the chest.
The power of the Thunder Sword lies in paralysis and speed. After being struck by the sword, his body suddenly became a little sluggish, and his movements were not as quick as before.
"It's an assassin! Kill him!"
A man in black walked out of the shadows, staring at the black shadow with a frosty face.
"Be careful not to disturb the lady's rest."
Chi Chi Chi!
There was another sword flashing in the darkness.
Immediately, three more people took action, all of whom were at least fifty levels of Thunder Sword cultivation.
The black shadow managed to hold on for a few more moves, but in the blink of an eye, his limbs were cut off by several long swords, his throat was sealed by a sword, and he fell to the ground and breathed his last.
But no one in the group of black-clad guards noticed that another black shadow had quietly sneaked into Mrs. Yuan Wanqing's room at some unknown time.
Take advantage of the time to fight outside.
A black shadow penetrated the curtain, suddenly shot out from the shadow below, and landed in the space not far behind Yuan Wanqing. He gently pulled out the dagger and walked forward.
"Who sent you?"
Suddenly a voice came from behind him.
The black shadow suddenly stiffened, but found that he could not take another step forward no matter what. It was clear that in front of him was Yuan Wanqing who was doing embroidery, but he just couldn't get closer.
"Boundary?"
He suddenly knew that he had been enveloped in an unknown barrier without any sound.
Turning around, the maid named Sakura was staring at him with a smile. Her green eyes were faintly filled with blood and cruelty.
"It took me a long time to finally find a place that can serve meat."
"Wolf demon!" Black Shadow's heart sank.
Somewhere in the shadows outside the room.
Lin Xin raised his head and looked up at Yuan Wanqing's bedroom. He seemed to be able to see through the blockage the crazy fight between Sakura and the attacker inside.
The sneak attacker was no match for the maid Sakura, and was completely suppressed in just a few rounds. The last one was accidentally cut into pieces.
Tightening his clothes, he turned around and backed away, disappearing quietly into the darkness. He was no longer needed here. (To be continued.)
