It's late at night now, but Xing Mansion is still brightly lit.
Xing Zhiyuan was pacing back and forth in the hall, while Xing Jing'an was doing boxing at the side.
"It's strange, it's been more than half an hour. Why hasn't Yue Jiang come back after so long?"
"It's just a little guy in the Bone Forging Realm. With Yue Jiang's strength, he can easily solve it. There won't be too many troubles."
"Is it possible that it was discovered?"
Xing Zhiyuan felt a little irritable.
His son has been dead for more than a month. The patriarch said that he would investigate the matter, but so far he has not come up with any results.
Xing Zhiyuan originally wanted to capture Lin Zheyu during the raid on Baishi Mountain to see if he could produce some clues through interrogation.
Who would have thought that those bandits were so useless and so well prepared that they could not attack Baishi Mountain.
"Dad, how about I go over and take a look!"
When Xing Jing'an saw his father walking around, he stopped practicing and said aloud.
"No, this time we, father and son, will go together." Xing Zhiyuan pondered for a moment and said.
……
"Woof woof woof..."
In the yard, a dog barked.
The man in black struggled, trying to get up and kill the dog, but he couldn't move.
He felt numb all over and his eyes were dazed.
Under normal circumstances, with his skills, he can easily kill the dog before it notices him.
But I didn't expect that I was poisoned just after I climbed into the yard.
"Is this guy sick? He is doing all these things at home!"
The man in black thought to himself, his consciousness gradually blurred and he snored.
The dog barked a few times. After inhaling the drug, his voice became weak and he fell asleep.
"Is there someone?!"
In the kitchen, Lin Zheyu suddenly opened his eyes.
Coming out of the firewood pile, I saw clearly what was going on in the yard through the crack in the door.
In the yard, a man dressed in black was lying, snoring slightly.
Zhi acridine——
Open the door and collect the string along the perimeter of the yard.
These are the methods he came up with after studying the drug code.
As long as someone sneaks in over the wall and accidentally breaks the string, the drug powder prepared in advance will be spilled.
The smell of this drug is very light and is difficult to detect when mixed with the fragrance of flowers in the yard.
Only those with rich experience and proficiency in poison can discover it in advance.
"Xiao Huang, you have made a great contribution again. I will give you extra food tomorrow."
Lin Zheyu squatted down in front of the big yellow dog and rubbed its head.
This dog has been following him for several months, and it has grown from a little puppy into a big yellow dog. During the month when he went to Baishi Mountain, Xiao Huang was kept at the house of Manager Wu.
Walking to the yard, he pulled off the black cloth from the face of the man in black, revealing an unfamiliar face.
"Who is this guy, and why did he come into my house?"
"Could it be a thief?"
Lin Zheyu looked at the strange man with some doubts in his heart.
He took out the rope from the house and tied the man up. After confirming that it was very strong, he poured a basin of water to wake him up.
Bang bang bang——
Seeing that he didn't wake up, Lin Zheyu slapped him hard several times.
His face was swollen, and the man woke up with a soft groan.
"Well..."
The man groaned and felt his face burning.
He opened his hazy eyes, his mind still a little confused.
Although he was forced to wake up from his coma, the effects of the medicine were still there and he was in a daze.
"Who sent you here?" Lin Zheyu asked.
"Yes, it's Mr. Xing..."
"What did he send you here for?"
"Send...send me here to arrest...arrest Lin Zheyu and go back...to interrogate him. He...he may have some clues about Mr. Xing's death."
The man in black said what he knew in a daze.
"Master Xing, Mr. Xing?"
"This guy was sent here by Xing Jingan's father?" Lin Zheyu frowned slightly.
It has been so long and there has been no movement from the Xing family. He has almost forgotten about it.
Click——
With a click, the man in black's neck was directly broken. In a daze, he went to see the King of Hell.
After dragging the body into a utility room and placing it there, Lin Zheyu cleaned up all the traces in the yard, then moved and turned over to the beam.
Since Xing Jinglong’s father sent someone here, the other party must be waiting for someone to report back.
If we can’t wait for a long time, we might send more people over.
Using the Turtle Breathing Technique with all his strength, Lin Zheyu's aura dropped again and again. Covered by the darkness, he would not be able to detect it if he didn't pay attention.
Time passed slowly, and Lin Zheyu waited silently.
More than half an hour later, two black shadows swooped into the courtyard.
"Sure enough, it's here!"
Lin Zheyu smiled coldly, moved his palm slightly, and quietly sprinkled the powder. When the breeze blew, the powder filled the entire courtyard.
After father and son Xing Jing'an and Xing Zhiyuan entered the yard, they did not find Yue Jiang.
They looked at each other with some confusion and caution in their eyes.
Just before coming in, they looked around. There was no one ambushing around, and everything was quiet.
Entering the courtyard, there were no signs of fighting inside.
"Did something happen on the way to Yuejiang and you didn't come here?" Xing Zhiyuan's heart sank.
Xing Jingan said in a low voice: "Let's go back first. I feel like things are a little weird."
Xing Zhiyuan nodded, and just as he was about to leave, he felt a little weak.
"Not good!"
Xing Zhiyuan was startled, and then he felt a huge force coming from the back of his neck and lost consciousness.
Bang bang!
There was a dull sound, and two black figures fell to the ground.
Lin Zheyu knelt down and pulled off the black cloth on the faces of the two of them. They didn't recognize one middle-aged man and the other young man, but their faces looked somewhat familiar.
"These two guys can't be Xing Jinglong's father and brothers, right?" Lin Zheyu said secretly.
He looked carefully and felt more and more that it was possible.
"Should we kill him directly?"
Lin Zheyu looked at the two of them and pondered for a moment.
These two people are quite powerful and have both reached the peak level of Zang refining.
This young man, in particular, is definitely a genius worth cultivating in the Xing family. If he died here, the Xing family would probably start a war.
Lin Zheyu was not in a hurry to kill. He jumped out of the yard and carefully checked around. After finding no one, he returned to the yard.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Click click click.
Two click sounds were heard, and the Xing family father and son were completely silent.
"Even these two father and son showed up, no one else will come, right?" Lin Zheyu said secretly.
The bodies of these two people were placed in the yard. It would be difficult to deal with them after they were discovered.
Lin Zheyu didn't waste much time, picked up a shovel, picked up the middle-aged man's body, tiptoed lightly, and submerged it into the night.
A few minutes later, he came back again, carrying a person in one hand, and disappeared into the night.
After returning, Lin Zheyu did not go into the house to sleep. Instead, he stayed on the beams all night, but no one was found lurking in.
After it got dark, Lin Zheyu went back to his house to catch up on his sleep.
I didn't get up until the sun was almost three o'clock in the morning.
……
Afternoon.
In Feihong Tower.
"From now on, he will be your person in charge, called Mr. Lin!"
Xu Jingwu said to the brothers of Feihong Gang.
"Yes, hello, Mr. Lin!"
The boy from the Feihong Gang said loudly.
"Don't be dissatisfied. Although Lin Zheyu's strength is only at the bone forging level, his combat power is already comparable to that of a master at the Zang Refining level."
"If you are not convinced, you can stand up and I will give you a chance to challenge. As long as you win, I will also give you treatment at the level of Zang Refining Realm."
Xu Jingwu said calmly.
He only said that those who won the battle would be treated at the Zang Refining Realm level, but he did not say that Lin Zheyu would not be the person in charge.
When the masters of the Bone Forging Realm heard this, expressions of excitement appeared on their faces, and their hearts were eager to try, but no one stood up immediately.
They don’t dare to stand out.
Although Gang Leader Xu usually smiles and looks elegant, if he gets violent, it will be extremely scary.
"I'm coming!"
Soon, a burly man on the left stood up and said.
This is a man nearly two meters tall, with a very burly figure.
"Okay!"
Lin Zheyu nodded and took off his coat, revealing his strong muscles.
"Let's take action!"
Lin Zheyu waved to the strong man and said lightly.
"Hey, Mr. Lin, you have no eyes for fists and feet. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way."
The strong man chuckled and moved his body, making the sound of muscles and bones ringing in unison unique to peak bone forging.
"Drink!"
He shouted loudly, rushed forward suddenly, raised his right leg high and kicked to the side, and attacked with a fierce kick.
This man also practiced door kicking skills. He was extremely fast and he ducked in front of Lin Zheyu.
Bang!
A dull sound sounded.
Lin Zheyu squatted down slightly and punched out with his right fist. His strength was not strong, but he was at the peak level of the Bone Forging Realm.
However, his attack was extremely fierce, and he could see through the strong man's flaw at a glance, and his fist directly hit the force node, cutting off the opponent's strength.
Deng Deng Deng...
The strong man was knocked back a few steps by Lin Zheyu's punch. He dared not step on his right leg and looked limping.
"Okay!"
Jia Yanyong said loudly and took the lead in applauding.
"Brother Lin, no, Master Lin is mighty!" Xie Jiang and Ning Hui both cheered.
"Concession!"
Lin Zheyu bowed his hands towards the strong man.
"Huh..."
The strong man let out a sigh of relief. Although he was extremely unconvinced, his right leg couldn't help but tremble slightly.
The punch just now was extremely fierce, hitting his special acupuncture point, and it actually made his right leg numb, and he has not recovered yet.
This kind of eyesight, combat reaction ability, and strength far surpass him.
"Someone admits defeat!"
The strong man said in a deep voice, limping back.
"Is there anyone else who wants to try it?" Lin Zheyu scanned the area and said calmly.
"I'm coming!"
An energetic voice came from the crowd, and a man with a similar build to Lin Zheyu walked out.
"Wu Chao, I'm good at swordsmanship. Master Lin, do you want that weapon to fight again?" Wu Chao said.
"No, let's take action!"
Lin Zheyu responded calmly.
"You're welcome then!"
Wu Chao chuckled and rushed forward with his sword skills.
The strong man just now was indeed very strong. If he didn't rely on weapons, he wouldn't be able to defeat him.
But his main skill is swordsmanship. Relying on the advantages of swordsmanship, he might have a chance to defeat Lin Zheyu.
Phew!
Wu Chao's sword skills were in full swing, the blade roared and struck Lin Zheyu head-on.
On one side of Lin Zheyu's body, Wu Chao changed his stance from chopping to slashing, and slashed towards his chest.
Lin Zheyu suddenly lowered his waist to avoid the blade, twisted his waist, put his right hand on the ground, and kicked Wu Chao's chest with both legs.
Bang bang bang——
He kicked Wu Chao several times on the chest with both legs, causing him to retreat repeatedly.
Boom!
Taking advantage of his body losing balance, Lin Zheyu kicked Wu Chao hard, sending Wu Chao flying backwards.
"Okay!"
Cheers came from all around.
"Master Lin is mighty!" Jia Yanyong and others shouted loudly.
"Is there anyone else who wants to come up?" Lin Zheyu looked at everyone calmly.
"I want to give it a try too!"
……
Half an hour later.
After defeating more than a dozen Bone Forging Realm experts in succession, no one came back.
"Is anyone still unconvinced?" Xu Jingwu asked lightly.
"No!"
Everyone said in unison.
"Very good, Lin Zheyu will be your person in charge from now on."
"Zhenbin, you will be Lin Zheyu's deputy and be responsible for daily chores." Xu Jingwu looked at the strong man who came forward and said.
"Yes, thank you, Gang Leader!"
Zhenbin said respectfully.
"Okay, you go down first and go and do whatever you have to do. Lin Zheyu stays." Xu Jingwu waved his hand and said.
After everyone left, Xu Jingwu walked aside and sat down.
"Sit." He looked at Lin Zheyu and said.
"Yes, Gang Leader."
Lin Zheyu nodded, put on his coat, and sat down next to him.
"Has your strength reached the peak of bone forging?" Xu Jingwu asked.
He wanted to ask just now, but because the brothers from the Feihong Gang were there, it was difficult to ask.
"Yes, I just broke through yesterday." Lin Zheyu said.
He plans to reveal more of his strength.
It was the middle stage of bone training more than a month ago, and it is normal to reach the peak now... right?
"It took only half a year to reach the peak of bone forging?!" Xu Jingwu was a little shocked.
"Can you show me?"
Xu Jingwu said: "Use 'power' too and let me see how strong you are now."
"Okay!"
Lin Zheyu nodded.
He walked to the open space in the distance and assumed the stance of Barbarian Bull Fist, and a powerful aura suddenly rose from his body.
Boom!
Crack!
He stepped out with his right foot, punched out with both fists, the strong wind roared, and his sleeves crackled.
Immediately afterwards, there was a thunderous sound of muscles and bones resonating in the arms. This was the sound of muscles and bones that had been forged like iron!
"Okay!"
Feeling Lin Zheyu's powerful 'power', Gang Leader Xu's eyes lit up.
I have only practiced martial arts for half a year, and I have already developed such a powerful "shi". If I continue to polish it, after more than ten years, I might hope to realize the "meaning".
As long as you practice your own "intent", your chances of being promoted to a Huajin warrior will be much greater.
"Monster, you are truly a monster with your talent!"
Xu Jingwu praised: "If you had started practicing martial arts since you were a child, you might have reached the Qi and Blood realm by now."
"Gang Leader Xu is so complimentary."
Lin Zheyu stopped, returned to his position, and said modestly.
"No, with your qualifications, if you get good training, you will definitely become a strong person in the marrow training realm in the future, and you may even have the opportunity to be promoted to the level of energy transformation!"
"If you are interested in joining the Xu family, you don't have to marry me."
"After you marry a daughter of my Xu family, you can start your own family, become a joint family of the Xu family, and create your own family in Songyicheng."
"Don't you want to change to a higher-level skill?"
"With the funding from the Xu family, you don't have to worry about your martial arts training resources and techniques. The Xu family can provide them directly." Xu Jingwu looked at Lin Zheyu and said seriously.
“I accept Gang Leader Xu’s kindness with heart.”
"It's just that I don't plan to get married and have children so early. The Xu family is kind to me. If I need it in the future, Lin Zheyu is obligated!"
Lin Zheyu clasped his fists and said.
"Haha, I was abrupt."
"When you get tired of being alone one day, feel that you are strong enough, and plan to start a family, you can come and find me. The Xu family has a great business and many outstanding women, and there will definitely be one you like."
When Gang Leader Xu heard this, he was not angry, but laughed.
"Thank you, leader, for your kindness." Lin Zheyu thanked him again.
"Okay, you go back first and practice hard." Xu Jingwu waved his hands.
"Yes!"
Looking at Lin Zheyu's leaving figure, Xu Jingwu had some envy and emotion on his face.
"What an enviable talent!"
"With such a talent, if this boy does not die young, he will definitely become a powerful warrior."
Xu Jingwu lamented that he had not seen such an outstanding young man for a long time.
"You have to talk to Yuxiang when you get back. Let her take the initiative and try to capture Lin Zheyu's heart."
"If Yuxiang can't do it, let Yuhua get in touch with him. Although Yuhua is only twelve years old, he is a beauty. He will definitely be prettier than Yuxiang when he grows up."
"I'm a little young, but it's not a big problem. I'll be in good shape in two or three years." Xu Jingwu said secretly.
……
Bidan Teahouse.
After Lin Zheyu met with his men, he came to the teahouse with Jia Yanyong, Xie Jiang and others.
Among them, Zhenbin is also there.
"Brother Zhenbin, this is a toast to you. I'm not familiar with things in the gang, so I'll trouble you in the future." Lin Zheyu said to the burly man.
This is the deputy Xu Jingwu specially found for him, so that he does not have to worry about things in the gang and can have more time to practice martial arts, which can be said to be extremely considerate.
"Mr. Lin, you're welcome, just call me Zhenbin." Zhenbin said with a smile.
"Brother Lin, no, it's time to call you Mr. Lin!"
"I didn't expect that within a few months of knowing you, you would transform into our immediate boss. I will ask Mr. Lin to support you more in the future."
Xie Jiang said with a smile.
The three of them were familiar with Lin Zheyu, so they were not too reserved.
"Haha, come and have a drink. I'll invite you to Baihualou tonight." Lin Zheyu raised the wine bowl and said with a smile.
……
The sky is getting dark.
At Xing Zhiyuan's house.
The two brothers Xing Zhicheng and Xing Penghai are both here. Xing Zhiyuan's wife and concubine are beside her, with tears on her face, obviously she has just cried.
"No news yet?"
Xing Zhicheng looked at the visitor and said in a deep voice.
"No, I can't find the master and Mr. Jing'an," the man replied.
"Did they say what they were going to do yesterday?" Xing Zhicheng looked at Xing Zhiyuan's wife and asked.
"No."
"The master went to bed very late last night and stayed with Yue Jiang and Jing'an to inquire and discuss things."
"Not long after Yue Jiang left, the master and Jing'an were asking and waiting, and then I went to bed first. When I woke up the next day, I couldn't see the master, and he didn't leave any news."
"Woo woo woo, nothing will happen to the master and Jing'an, woo woo..." the woman said and couldn't help crying.
"Dad, didn't Uncle Zhiyuan say that he would personally arrest Lin Zheyu and come back for interrogation to see if he could find out any clues to Jinglong's death?"
"Maybe they were ambushed by the Xu family last night when they went to arrest Lin Zheyu. I heard that the Xu family seems to value this boy very much."
Xing Penghai pondered for a moment and said.
"To make Zhiyuan, Jing'an and Yue Jiang disappear quietly, at least the strength of the Qi and Blood realm is needed."
"Then the Xu family values that kid so much that they sent a master of this level to protect him personally?"
Xing Zhicheng frowned, shook his head and said: "The Xu family does not have so many Qi and blood masters."
"Report this matter to the patriarch. Jing'an is one of the most outstanding disciples of our Xing family. Even if something happens to him, I don't believe that the patriarch can ignore it!"
Xing Zhicheng said lightly.
"Dad, do you think it was Lin Zheyu who did this?"
"If he is proficient in poison, Jing'an and the others might fall into his trap without paying attention." Xing Penghai guessed.
