On the streets under curfew, special red lanterns emitted a very penetrating halo, with powerful auras, and soldiers in armor were galloping past.
The armor coats, glowing with cold light, collided with each other during the rapid movement, making a clicking sound.
In the alleyway, Lin Mo raised his head and looked at the streets that were both familiar and unfamiliar.
A strange blend of silence and noise.
The lights of the houses along the street were still on, and the faint lights flickered on and off amidst the increasing footsteps.
A faint rustling sound can be heard.
Compared to Zhe Nan, Zong Zhanbo's realm is somewhat worse.
But in terms of the degree of weirdness of the method, it is stronger.
‘Even his gaze is polluting, and yet he calls him a fairy? And it’s ironic that a guy like this is vaguely connected to the high-ranking officials of this chosen career path.’
Ahem.
Lin Mo coughed softly and squinted at the open space aside.
There were two men collapsed there.
Zhou Daowei, Zhao Gang.
The armor on the two men was now in tatters, and their bodies were like rags with countless wounds.
The gurgling blood flowed out along the wound, and soon formed pools of blood on the ground.
These two guys were lucky. During the fierce battle between Lin Mo and Zong Zheng Zhanbo, they seized the opportunity to escape. During the escape process, they almost escaped without being hit by the aftermath of the battle.
I just didn't expect that as early as in the meeting hall, Lin Mo had put a special poisonous incense on his body. If he really escaped, where could he escape?
"Lin Junmo...you...someone is coming to the general office soon. Even...even you can't hope to deal with everyone unscathed. What happened today...I will rot in my stomach."
Zhou Daowei's physique was obviously much stronger, and he had a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He managed to avoid unconsciousness, and said in a low voice with a pale face.
Lin Mo smiled and sprinkled colorless powder from his wide sleeves, which neutralized and eliminated the blood stains, covering all traces.
At the same time, a chain of flesh and blood suddenly swam out and penetrated Zhou Daowei's palm.
An object like a signal rod fell from his hand and fell to the ground.
Zhou Daowei's lips trembled, and there was no luck.
I originally wanted to take advantage of the moment when the opponent was paralyzed and use small means to pull him down, but unfortunately, he still failed!
A rare sense of powerlessness surrounded his entire being.
Like a wave, it keeps coming and drowns the whole person.
"you……"
"I."
Zhou Daowei wanted to say something else, but Lin Mo interrupted him.
A large hand grindstone generally falls on its head.
The colorless world explodes.
The power of Tathagata is like countless transparent threads, cutting through everything. Coupled with the majestic demonic energy, Zhou Daowei's body and armor were shattered and annihilated in an instant.
Black gray was blown by the wind and surrounded the end of the forest.
He didn't stay too long, just tiptoed, and his figure disappeared directly into the night.
In the remote alleyway, flickering lights shine down, and everything else is gone.
After a while.
The Xuanshidao mansion is already in a mess.
Several figures appeared on the spot, and the first thing they did was to search for survivors.
I don't know if it was due to good luck or something else, but I found a lot of living people outside the mansion, most of them were guards in the mansion.
But after he was rescued, he didn't know anything about it. The last impression left in his mind was that his vision suddenly went dark.
As for the rest, there are no senior officials.
"This...this is the trace of the battle between the Qianyu Realm Immortal Dao... Preliminary inspection shows that the Qianyu Realm Demon Dao and the Chixian martial artist fought against each other. It is not yet clear who is the murderer..."
The bearded man said softly.
He is the best ghostwriter in Huaiping City and the best at analyzing and profiling.
Normally, when investigating a case, he would speak straight and without hesitation. Now when he spoke, his voice was very soft.
"Li Fang, are you sure you are from the Qianyu Realm's demonic lineage?" Someone finally spoke up and questioned.
The strong man with the beard didn't reply, he just nodded.
Everyone was silent again.
The election of affairs can be regarded as the real big move of the imperial court in recent times. It has spent a lot of mental resources to connect the Huaizhou martial arts community together to deal with the increasingly chaotic situation.
Now, less than a year after the establishment of the Yamen, the family was directly exterminated. How can this be said?
What's even more frightening is that the murderer is secretly from the Qianyu Realm.
Think again of the tense situation on the front lines today.
Everyone felt a little chilly in their hearts.
Huaiping, Qinglonghui.
"You've been gone for a long time now."
Sun Daoyi and Lin Mo stood in the courtyard and looked at the Taihuai Ferry in the distance.
Behind him, Sun Bujue was settling accounts with the steward of the Qinglong Society.
Lin Mo and Sun Daoyi stood side by side. With a body of more than two meters, he was half a head taller than the old man next to him.
Without saying a word, there was a unique aura about him.
This is a kind of aura. I wonder if it’s because there have been a lot of killings recently. If an ordinary martial artist looks at him, those with a weaker mind will immediately feel their muscles tense and uneasy.
"I've been busy during this period, and I was really delayed by trivial matters."
Lin Mo looked at the depressed ferry in the distance and said in a deep voice.
In the recent natural month, he was actually supposed to be on duty, but he didn't come back because he had something to do. It was Sun Daoyi who took the shift for him.
"No need to mention these little things. After all, business is getting harder and harder during this period, and there are few things happening on the river." Sun Daoyi stroked his beard and shook his head.
"By the way, the Choosing Path was destroyed last night. Do you know?"
Lin Mo's expression remained unchanged: "I know a little bit about it. I heard that it was the demon from Qianyu Realm who killed many people. However, people from the imperial court came and found nothing. They searched all night.
Even though the city is still closed now, it seems like a severe crackdown is coming."
He was very cautious and eliminated all traces before leaving. After discovering Zongzheng Zhanbo's identity, he became even more determined.
In any case, with the addition of the latter, things will only become more confusing.
After all, even if they continue to investigate and find out his connection with the Yuhou Mansion, they will only be suppressed.
"It's been such a troubled time. According to my information, both parties involved in the attack have strength close to the level of a true king, yet they are so unscrupulous in their actions." Sun Daoyi had a strange look in his eyes and shook his head.
"It should be a grudge." Lin Mo said.
"Maybe, but no matter what, after this matter, the court will definitely take big action." Sun Daoyi said in a deep voice.
"By the way, speaking of the future, how are the Sun family planning to leave?" Lin Mo changed the subject.
The two of them came to the center of the courtyard and sat down under the landscape tree.
Immediately, servants came forward to pour tea and water.
"Today's situation is unusual. Something big may happen." Lin Mo said seriously.
If nothing else, just the appearance of Zongzheng Zhanbo holding the Jade Marquis Order is enough to alert people.
"You also know the news from the front line?" Sun Daoyi was slightly startled and said subconsciously.
Lin Mo shook his head and asked: "You know?"
"I know something about it." Sun Daoyi's face darkened, "The front is not optimistic. Not only is it impossible to attack for a long time, but the opponent's strength is getting stronger and stronger. Even the coalition forces are somewhat unable to resist it, so they should be forced to mobilize soon.
"
"Forced recruitment... Do you mean that even people at your level and my level are within the scope of recruitment?" Lin Mo was a little surprised.
"If the true situation is bad enough, it is natural." Sun Daoyi said frankly.
"When the time comes, you can help me preserve my remaining veins." He said solemnly.
Sun Bujue, who was closing the accounts not far away, trembled, and the speed of checking the accounts was subconsciously faster.
"If it's just a residual vein, there's no problem on my side." Lin Mo nodded.
Sun Daoyi is a person who gets along well with him. He is not only good in strength, but also knowledgeable, so he can take action for small tasks.
After getting Lin Mo's promise, Sun Daoyi breathed a sigh of relief and his face became slightly brighter.
It's like something suddenly occurred to me.
"By the way, you should also be careful. The Huailiu Gang and the Huaiping General Office have been getting closer recently. Especially after Zhou He was transferred, the Qinglong Club has been under a lot of suppression, both overtly and covertly."
"Oh? Who is the leader in Huaiping now?" Lin Mo said with a smile.
He had actually expected it before leaving, so it wasn't a surprise.
"My name is Li Yuanqian. He is known as an unparalleled general. He once won the fourth place in the Taihuai River Tournament in the past." Sun Daoyi answered.
"The unparalleled general is a bit interesting and looks very strong." Lin Mo thought thoughtfully.
"This is natural. He was a first-class genius at a young age. Otherwise, he would not have won such a good ranking in the Taihuai River Association. Later, he joined the Yuhou Mansion. He has no shortage of resources.
From then on, he has been fighting in the realm to support war, killing unparalleled people. He passed through the True Lord Tribulation a few years ago and condensed his Dharma Body. Some people say that he is even stronger than Zhou He." Sun Daoyi's face showed a solemn look, and he became serious.
vocal tract.
"It doesn't matter." Lin Mo shook his head, "I have long planned to give up some business on the river and develop inland in the mountains. In fact, it will not have much impact on the Qinglong Society.
Of course, if the opponent pushes too hard, then it depends on whether his unparalleled general is truly unparalleled."
His name is Tree Shadow, and he has never really fought, so he has no fear in his heart.
Besides, even if you really can't beat him, the worst thing you can do is call someone.
Today is different from the past. It's not like there's no one above him.
As for the lost industrial interests, they were worthless, tasteless, and a pity to throw away. This was just the time for him to make up his mind.
"You...made a breakthrough again?" Sun Daoyi was shocked.
"Almost, but not as far as you think." Lin Mo smiled, "Of course, if the other party really wants to fight, even if he can't defeat this so-called unparalleled general, he won't be able to keep me if I want to leave."
"Sure enough, young people can't compare." Sun Daoyi sighed.
This level of strength is already extraordinary.
Because he is qualified to talk to the general government.
At this level, all major forces, even the imperial court, are extremely rare and have the upper-level combat power.
If there is no need to kill him with certainty, no one will want to provoke him.
After all, once such a master loses his face and starts operating without limits, it will be a disaster.
After learning about Lin Mo's strength, Sun Daoyi obviously felt much more stable.
The two began to talk about other matters, such as the recent affairs in Huaiping.
It was almost noon, and Sun Bujue's account closing was also completed.
Sun Daoyi declined Lin Mo's invitation to have lunch together, and after agreeing to send some people over tomorrow, he took them away directly.
Things have changed recently, and as the backbone of the Sun family, he has a lot on his plate.
Almost everything has to be taken over.
After seeing off the Sun family, Lin Mo made an appointment with the current senior officials of the Qinglong Society to have a meal together and casually discuss future developments.
Similar to what Sun Daoyi said, the Huailiu Gang has become somewhat rampant recently, so rampant that it has had several conflicts with the Qinglong Society, both large and small.
Among them, the Qinglonghui side lost and lost, but both parties maintained restraint, participated in martial arts, and their strength was below that of the Grandmaster.
In addition, some other industries are also being invaded.
With the intervention of government forces, it will be difficult for the Qinglong Society to resist.
Lin Mo had already expected this.
He actually values people and intelligence channels more than those industries.
If you should give it up, give it up, or sell it for a good price, and shift your focus to the secretly built base.
Now that the Yangtze is rising, the mountains are getting richer and richer, and with the mountains and seas of rice in hand, there is no shortage of food. Instead of standing in the bright light and attracting attention, it is better to retreat to the dark and hide one's strength and bide one's time.
It's just that the Qinglong Society is too big now...
Even if part of the industry is abandoned, it cannot be easily transferred in a short time.
What's more, this matter needs to be done secretly.
Fortunately, Lin Mo acquired many small and medium-sized chambers of commerce in the early days, which came in handy at this time, and they were perfect for secret transfers.
After arranging everything with the senior management, Lin Mo came to the secret room.
The person in the secret room was none other than Xiao Jue.
Normally, this person is not worthy of his attention. After all, he is just an ordinary warrior.
In addition, after he later found out his identity, he felt even more disdainful.
But there was something in him that Lin Mo wanted.
In the room, he was sitting on a chair.
The sun shines through the window, illuminating the animal skin paper in his hand.
"It turns out to be the Poison Immortal's Note. Is my luck really that good?"
The Poison Immortal Note is the most special Poison Scripture that Lin Mo has encountered since his debut.
The method of poisoning is not to use medicinal powder as the main body, but to refine the poisonous blood, build a poisonous net, and apply the poison silently.
Generally speaking, if it is assisted by other poisons, the effect will be excellent. It is very special.
This is also the reason why Lin Mo was able to detect the shadow of the Poisonous Immortal Injection used by Xiao Jue.
It's just that it's extremely difficult to practice the Poison Immortal Injection. Even the founder has not completed all of it.
Ordinary people, who want to practice two poisonous laws like Lin Mo, are very rare.
But people are always exploratory.
For example, the Poison Immortal Injection in Xiao Jue's hand has been improved by people, from practicing poison blood and constructing poison nets to practicing poison strength.
It's a castrated version.
Fortunately, it was still there, and it not only included the [Degeneration] and [Epidemic] that Lin Mo had mastered, but also six other poisonous laws such as [Defeat] and [Epislepsy]. Only the last one, [Death], was missing.
"Perhaps the time has not come yet. After all, things are not going as planned in the world. Nine times out of ten, you will be lucky if you can find the follow-up technique."
Lin Mo thought of mobilizing the entire Qinglong Society, but there was no news at all. Now that he was seeking personal revenge, he unexpectedly got it, so he was satisfied.
After Xiao Jue woke up, he tortured him several times again, and when he found that he was right, he ended it.
After settling all the messy things, Lin Mo did not return to Dayan Mountain, but stayed at Qinglong Club.
While practicing, sit still.
Under his auspices, the transfer of the Qinglong Society was carried out step by step.
And his own martial arts system has gradually become perfect.
