Even though Lin Ji used spiritual energy to help him sort out his physical fatigue, he was just an ordinary person after all. He was escorted to Beijing after a long journey and rarely rested. It was natural that he could not support himself.
Lin Ji sat in the corner of the room with his arms folded, his consciousness surrounding the inn.
Outside the door were the group of eunuchs from the Department of Compilation, but Fu'an was nowhere to be seen.
"Have you given up... It's almost dawn, you won't stop me on the road, right?" Lin Ji thought secretly in his heart.
This place is only a few dozen miles away from the capital. If you want to attack Shen Hong, this inn is your last chance.
Therefore, even if there was no other movement, Lin Ji did not dare to be careless at all.
Time passes minute by minute...
Suddenly, there were footsteps outside the house, and then there was a knock on the door of the room.
"Who?" Lin Ji frowned slightly.
"Mr. Lin, Master Fu asked me to bring you tea."
"I don't drink tea." Lin Ji refused without thinking.
But the moment he opened his mouth, an inaudible sound of wind suddenly sounded outside the window of the house.
Lin Ji's expression remained unchanged, and he stopped in front of Shen Hong in a flash. He turned his hand and grabbed a small thing.
When he opened his hand and took a look, he realized that it was a silver needle. The tip of the needle was a bit black, which was obviously quenched with poison.
It's just that although the silver needle is sharp, it can't even pierce Lin Ji's finger skin.
"Sure enough, you haven't given up yet...are you here again?!" Before Lin Ji could breathe a sigh of relief, the window of the room was suddenly opened.
A black shadow met with a palm and headed straight for Lin Ji's face.
The strong wind howled, and Lin Ji vaguely seemed to hear a roar.
"Using the power of the soul? Are you in the night travel realm?"
Although the opponent was only in the fifth realm, Lin Ji did not dare to neglect him. He hurriedly exerted a little force and returned the attack with the same palm.
boom!
Lin Ji remained motionless while the black shadow flew out upside down.
But at the moment he was beaten back, his mouth suddenly opened, and several more poisonous needles flew out.
"It's just a small skill. If you only have this ability, you'd better not use it to embarrass yourself."
That being said, the poisonous needles were extremely tricky. Even if Lin Ji could block them all, there would inevitably be gaps left.
This gap was not his flaw, but Shen Hong who was blocked behind him.
Without hesitation, Lin Ji opened the space in his sleeve with a wave of his sleeve and took all the silver needles in.
"Huh?" The man in black was obviously shocked by this hand.
Lin Ji was smiling and was about to make a mockery.
It is impossible to chase. Don't even think about trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
But at this moment, another person appeared in the other direction.
This man was not masked, but suddenly appeared in mid-air outside the window, looking at Lin Ji quietly.
He was dressed in red and had a pointed hat. Even though it was dark, with just a little moonlight, Lin Ji could clearly see his somewhat mean face.
"You have been out of the Traveling Realm for several days." Lin Ji's face became more solemn.
If he could deal with the Night Travel Realm with a bit of calmness like a cat and mouse, but facing the Day Travel Realm monks at the same level, he would not dare to be careless in any case.
What's more, this person has no intention of concealing his identity.
"Si Wuma, the editor, has met Mr. Lin."
"Wuma?" Lin Ji was stunned, still wondering whether Wuma was his name or an official position he had never heard of before.
While Lin Ji was confused, the man in black whom he had just knocked away also landed next to Wu Ma.
"Editor Si Weiyang, I have met Mr. Lin."
"What is the code name for co-author Wu Ma Wei Yang?" Lin Ji was speechless.
Wu Ma chuckled lightly and said, "It's just a code name casually given by the Chief of Staff. They are all working in the palace, and it is difficult to carry out errands with their true identities, so they have code names."
"Why are you telling me this?" Lin Ji asked with a frown.
"Anyway, Mr. Lin can find out if he wants to, so it's better to make it clear to our family." The smile on Wu Ma's face froze slightly, "It's not only a self-introduction, but also a reminder."
Lin Ji nodded.
He is not stupid, and he can naturally understand the meaning behind Wu Ma's words.
The Editorial Department is the domain of eunuchs, and eunuchs in the sixth realm are at the level of palace managers at least.
Wu Ma's words are nothing more than saying that going against them means going against the palace.
As for who in the palace you are going against, it doesn't matter anymore.
Lin Ji doesn't like to talk in circles.
"Are you two here to kill Shen Hong?"
"No." Wu Ma shook his head and said, "Someone wants to see Mr. Lin, please come and invite us two."
"Meet me? At this time?" Lin Ji's face showed a bit of ridicule, "What if I don't go?"
"Mr. Lin, Beijing is no better than other places. Some adults have a reputation that cannot be disputed."
"So if I don't go, you will take me by force?" Lin Ji asked with a sneer.
"That's the truth." Wu Ma nodded.
"Then let's try it."
Wu Ma was not surprised and raised his hand to Lin Ji.
"excuse me."
After the words fell, the figure of the horse suddenly disappeared at noon in the sky, leaving only Weiyang still there.
Weiyang raised his hand, and this time hundreds of silver needles came straight towards Lin Ji.
"As expected of a hermaphrodite, you are the best at playing the role of yin and yang." Lin Ji once again used his sleeves to put away all the silver needles.
Then, he suddenly drew his sword and slashed to the left.
clang!
The edge of the sword was blocked by sharp nails.
Lin Ji's expression froze. He never expected that Wu Ma would dare to block his sword with his hand.
"Haha, Mr. Fang's Qingzhi Sword." Wu Ma chuckled, flicking the sword's edge away with his hand, and said, "You even have the Qingzhi Sword in your hand. Master Lin has a bright future, so why bother looking for trouble?"
Lin Ji frowned.
"Do you even know this? Is it the news from the Editorial Department itself, or is there an informant in the Supervisory Department?"
As he spoke, the Arctic Kung Fu had already begun to operate. In just one breath, Lin Ji's aura nearly doubled.
This time, the smile on Wu Ma's face disappeared.
"Master Lin really wants to go all out? Since the establishment of the Editorial Department, he has never had any trouble with the Supervisor."
"You dare to attack me for no reason, why not if I fight back and kill you?!" Lin Ji's eyes were full of murderous intent.
Out of nowhere, he came up and talked to himself, really treating himself as a character.
Lin Ji is a monk in the Sun Traveling Realm, and even though he is new to the Sun Traveling Realm, his skills are definitely second to none in the Sun Traveling Realm.
After practicing for so many years, I have been through many dangers before I am where I am today.
If someone who has entered the Taoist realm comes here, Lin Ji will turn around and leave without saying a word. Afterwards, he promises to be like an ostrich, sticking his head in the soil and not knowing anything.
But we are all on a day trip, why are you so arrogant?
"I have no intention of playing tricks with you. I came to Tongtian Town late at night to sneak attack and kill the fourth-rank commander of Supervisory Tiansi. This is a capital crime and cannot be forgiven!"
