Looking at Lin Yu in front of her, Xu Zhilan had a complex expression on her face.
If it weren't for Lin Yu, she would have been like the rest of the Xu family this time, destined to be doomed! "Miss Xu, I wonder what your relationship is with the Chen family?"
Lin Yu didn't think that much. What he wanted to find out more was what kind of connection the Chen family had with the handsome scholar among the five great envoys of the Jiuli Divine Kingdom! "I don't know much, I just
You know, my mother is from the Chen family."
Xu Zhilan shook her head and said: "Father has not told me about the rest of the matter, and the rest of my Xu family has also kept it secret."
"Is that so?"
Lin Yu frowned slightly, trying to figure out the affairs of the Chen family, but it was not that simple.
Of course, approaching the Chen family through Xu Zhilan was more reliable than rashly contacting the Chen family on his own.
"Miss Xu, please leave here first and find a place to hide."
Thinking of this, Lin Yu said: "I plan to continue exploring the Desolate Ash Mountains, and I will come to you again after the matter is over."
"Do you want to continue into the Desolate Ember Mountains?"
Xu Zhilan was startled, then said in a deep voice: "Ling... Fellow Taoist, can I follow you?"
"you sure?"
Lin Yu looked at the other party: "You should know that you are now the only child of the Xu family. If you die, the Xu family will be completely destroyed!"
"In addition, the other four major families will obviously regard you as a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh. Once they find you, they will never show mercy to you. Are you sure you want to take such a big risk and enter the Desolate Ember Mountains again?"
"I have to do this!"
Xu Zhilan said solemnly: "Without the power of the Xu family, I, a fourth-level supreme, would not be able to escape the pursuit of the four major families. Only by getting enough opportunities in the Desolate Ash Mountains can I escape from this fate!"
"In addition...if I want to get close to the Chen family, strength is a must. A fourth-level supreme being, the Chen family may not take seriously, but if I can reach a fifth-level or sixth-level supreme, they will definitely take it seriously!"
"
"It makes sense."
Lin Yu thought that Xu Zhilan's increased strength would indeed help his plan to get closer to the Chen family.
Thinking of this, he nodded and said: "I will try my best to protect your safety, but I will not make an absolute guarantee. It is up to you whether you want to follow me."
As he spoke, Lin Yu continued to move forward, and Xu Zhilan quickly followed.
Soon, the two came to the long and narrow valley again. Looking at the empty road, Xu Zhilan remained silent.
She knew that this road was stained with the blood of the Xu family! Lin Yu could also understand her emotions, and continued to move forward without saying anything more.
"Um?"
Soon, three figures appeared in front of them.
These three figures were all powerful men from the four major families, but at this moment, they seemed to have turned into statues, standing motionless with extremely weird smiles on their faces.
"Their soul power has completely dissipated, and even the original mark has been obliterated!"
After a slight reaction, Lin Yu showed a solemn expression.
From the outside, they don't have any scars on their bodies, and there are no signs of battle. Why did they end up like this?
Next, as Lin Yu and the two continued to move forward, they encountered several figures one after another, all of whom came from the four major families.
Like the previous three people, they were standing there like sculptures, with weird smiles on their faces, but their life breath had been completely cut off, leaving only an empty shell.
"What happened?"
Lin Yu frowned. At this moment, he seemed to hear a strange sound of music. Although the music was strange, it seemed to have some kind of magic power, and people couldn't help but be immersed in it.
The corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly, revealing a strange smile, but the next moment, he had already regained consciousness.
"I see!"
His expression returned to calm and he understood the origin of those sculptures.
Obviously, they were affected by this weird music. Because their souls and will were not strong enough, their souls were eroded and they became walking zombies! "That's right!"
The next moment, he seemed to remember something and immediately looked at Xu Zhilan.
Fortunately, Xu Zhilan's soul will is not too weak. In addition, she has just experienced a blood feud, and her desire for revenge is extremely strong, which strengthens her will and resists the invasion of the weird music.
"Aiming at the soul... If nothing else happens, the original ancient character in the Desolate Ash Mountain Range should be the word 'Lie' targeting the soul's consciousness!"
A thought flashed in Lin Yu's mind.
In the nine-character secret technique, each character represents a different direction, and the character "line" represents the ultimate realm of soul consciousness.
If he can get this ancient character of origin, Lin Yu's soul attack methods will undoubtedly be greatly improved! "Let's go."
Suppressing the surprise in their hearts, Lin Yu and the two continued to move forward.
……at the same time.
At the end of the long and narrow valley, there is a flat land. Above the flat land, there are three long and narrow roads leading to the top of the mountain.
The rest of the four major families stood here, looking at a stone tablet on the ground.
What is recorded on the stone tablet is about the three roads. According to what the stone tablet says, choosing the first road is destined to fail to obtain the final opportunity.
For the second path, if you can reach the top of the mountain, you have a 30% chance of getting the final opportunity. For the third path, if you can get to the top of the mountain, you have a 100% chance of getting the final opportunity! In addition, there is no danger of life or death in the first two paths.
, but in the third path, once you die, you have truly fallen! Everyone can experience each path personally. As long as they are within the first ten feet, they can choose to exit at any time and choose another path.
.
But once it exceeds the range of ten feet, you have chosen a path, and there is no chance to change it. Even if you regret it, you can only continue until you are kicked out or die! "Three paths, which one should I choose?"
One?"
Everyone's eyes were solemn, and soon someone sneered: "Why bother so much?
Since you can experience all three paths for yourself, wouldn’t you know if you try them all?”
With that said, the strong man from the Black Demon family stepped onto the first road.
The next moment, his face suddenly showed a look of disbelief, and his eyes were full of surprise: "This road is so abnormal!"
At the same time, everyone around him looked at the man with shocked expressions.
They could feel that after embarking on the first path, the soul power of the strong man from the Black Demon family continued to increase at a speed visible to the naked eye!
