"Am I neurotic?! Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Now all the disciples of the Suzaku Sect are looking for you. How dare you run out so openly without fear of being discovered!"
After taking the hangover medicine, Meng Fanjiang sobered up a lot and involuntarily put a straw hat on Lin Lang's head to cover his face.
"Looking for me? Isn't this normal?"
Lin Lang was puzzled. It stands to reason that since he suddenly disappeared from the Yingling Mountains, everyone in the sect would probably spare no effort to find him. But he really couldn't tell his whereabouts, let alone meet his master and others.
"Tell me the truth... You can't really be an undercover agent from the Demon Sect, can you?!"
As soon as Meng Fanjiang said these words, Lin Lang's heart was shaken.
It was revealed that he was taken away by the Demon Sect? Was it the tip from that kid Lu Pinglang?
That's not right! This will only bring danger to the whereabouts of the Demon Sect. It is impossible for Lu Pinglang to do such a thing.
"Tell me first, what happened to the sect after I left?"
Lin Lang did not answer Meng Fanjiang's question. Meng Fanjiang gritted his teeth and told Lin Lang everything that happened next.
During that incident, Mu Zhiyuan fell into a coma, and Lu Pinglang could not stand up to speak for Lin Lang, so the only witness at the scene was Qi Yan.
In Qi Yan's words, Lin Lang turned into a villain who took advantage of others' danger and even wanted to kill people to destroy the evil demon sect. Qi Yan, on the other hand, played the role of a good senior brother who earnestly persuaded his junior to turn back.
Meng Fanjiang also told Lin Lang everything about the change in the sect's attitude towards Lin Lang and the fact that the head of the sect had written a book to arrest Lin Lang.
From beginning to end, he believed in Lin Lang, so when Lin Lang appeared in front of him, his first thought was to protect Lin Lang.
"Qi Yan...damn it..."
Lin Lang clenched his fists. Although he didn't know how Qi Yan recognized the identity of the Tiansha Blood Eagle Demon Cult, Qi Yan's remarks undoubtedly pushed him into the abyss.
Even now that I have escaped from the Demon Sect and returned to the Vermillion Bird Sect, my body is really stained with the aura of the Demon Sect. To be precise, it is the mark of the Thirteen Transformations of the Demon Sect, which I cannot explain even if I try to explain it.
"So?? Everyone believed Qi Yan because of his one-sided words??"
"Hey. The residual demonic energy was found at the scene, as well as your weird cultivation speed, and the false identity you reported. There are too many doubts against you, plus Qi Yan insists that you are a member of the demon sect.
So everyone..."
Meng Fanjiang had a look of regret on his face.
"But there are still many people who believe in you. For example, me, Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan, Senior Sister Ma Ling'er, and Senior Brother Jin Xiaowu! Everyone believes in you! So, can you tell me what happened?
?”
Meng Fanjiang looked anxious.
Lin Lang paused, and then said to Meng Fanjiang seriously: "I can't tell you the truth yet. But believe me, I will never do anything to hurt my brothers or the sect!"
"Haha. With what you said, why should I feel uneasy? But... are you ready to return to the sect now? If you don't have evidence to turn over, I advise you not to go back. Everyone is
They are watching you with eager eyes. If anyone can capture you alive, they can replace you and become the third closed disciple."
Meng Fanjiang frowned, feeling that Lin Lang's appearance was too abrupt. It was better to hide outside and wait until substantive evidence was collected to overturn Qi Yan's lies.
"Don't worry, I didn't plan to meet the clan this time. I just wanted to come and get some news from you."
"Oh, by the way, Zhiyuan, how is Mu Zhiyuan? How is she doing after I left?"
Lin Lang asked, in fact, the main purpose of returning to Crescent City this time was to inquire about Mu Zhiyuan's situation.
"Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan??!"
Meng Fanjiang's face suddenly showed excitement when he mentioned Mu Zhiyuan.
"Brother Lin, you don't know that after you left, Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan seemed to have become a different person!!"
"Oh?? How do you say this?" Lin Lang raised his eyebrows.
"Do you know what state of cultivation Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan has reached now??"
Meng Fanjiang smiled and deliberately let it slip.
"The current state."
Lin Lang touched his chin. Before leaving, he specially helped her improve her talent. At that time, she was only around the sixth level of a spiritual person.
Now more than half a year has passed. With such a heaven-defying talent, he should have reached the level of psychic realm.
"Level 4 of the psychic realm?"
Lin Lang chose a compromise realm.
"Hehe, the tenth level of the psychic realm!!"
"Level ten??!"
Although he knew that Mu Zhiyuan's current talent was unparalleled, Lin Lang was still surprised by the speed of his cultivation.
Meng Fanjiang said proudly.
"Breaking through two levels in one month, Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan has now become a legendary figure in the Suzaku Sect. Even the elders will doubt whether she has used any evil secret skills, but after a thorough investigation, there is no trace of it on her body.
Find any signs of magic."
"According to what she said, even she herself didn't know what was going on. She just kept practicing and she made a breakthrough."
Lin Lang twitched the corner of his mouth. If you practice and practice, you will be able to break through. This is talent. A talent of more than 70 years is definitely not something that Lin Lang, who is more than 50 years old, can guess.
"But senior sister is practicing really hard. Every morning, she is the first one to go to the training ground and the last one to go back. In cultivation, she seems to be working much harder than before. It seems that she is... affected by Brother Lin's incident.
It’s a lot of excitement.”
Thinking of the lively and cheerful girl she once had, who no longer had a smile on her face and only devoted herself to practice all day long, Meng Fanjiang sighed slightly.
Lin Lang was even more touched after hearing this. It can be seen that this girl really wants to follow in his footsteps. After she returns to the Suzaku Sect, she may really give him a big surprise.
"But... there is one more thing I have to tell you."
When Meng Fanjiang said this, he became a little hesitant and did not dare to look directly at Lin Lang.
A trace of uncertainty flashed in Lin Lang's heart: "What?"
"Just a few days ago, Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan broke through to the tenth level of the psychic realm. Then she...then she went to find Qi Yan for a duel."
"Is she doing it for..."
Lin Lang frowned and could probably guess Mu Zhiyuan's purpose.
Meng Fanjiang nodded: "The bet the two of them made is very simple. If Mu Zhiyuan wins, she will ask Qi Yan to tell the facts that happened at that time. If Qi Yan wins, he can learn from Senior Sister Mu Zhiyuan's
I won a middle-grade Xuan-level magic weapon in my hand."
Meng Fanjiang still remembers it very clearly. The grand occasion of that day was almost as grand as the battle with Lin Lang and Li Shanhe.
It is not an exaggeration to say that one is the strongest disciple of the Suzaku Sect, and the other is the person who has achieved the fastest cultivation breakthrough in the history of the Suzaku Sect, and is also a great beauty. Naturally, he has attracted the attention of countless people.
"cut."
Lin Lang slammed the table angrily. Not to mention that Mu Zhiyuan, who had just grown up, had no chance of winning. Even if he won, people like Qi Yan would never tell the truth.
If Mu Zhiyuan knew that Qi Yan had lured the Silver Silk Demon Spider here, she would never make this bet with him.
Lin Lang now regrets that he did not remind Mu Zhiyuan to be careful about Qi Yan before leaving!
"What happened in the end? Zhiyuan should have lost, right?"
"Well. Although the cultivation level of Mu Zhiyuan World improved very quickly, in actual combat, he was no match for Qi Yan. In the end, he lost the game, and..."
"Huh? How about it??"
"Qi Yan also injured his leg, and now I can't even get out of bed..."
Meng Fanjiang's voice became quieter and quieter as he spoke, until it was as quiet as the sound of a mosquito.
Bang!!!
The table in front of the two of them was smashed to pieces by Lin Lang, and the wine and meat that had been sitting on the table also spilled all over the floor.
The waiter had never seen such a trick before. He quickly ran over to apologize and asked if the food and wine had made the customer dissatisfied.
Lin Lang's veins popped out, and he threw a shiny silver ingot to the waiter, and then patted Meng Fanjiang on the shoulder. Anyone could feel the majestic anger suppressed in his body, ready to erupt at any time.
"Brother Lin!! Brother Lin! Now is not the time to go back."
Meng Fanjiang saw that Lin Lang couldn't control himself and ran away, so he quickly grabbed his arm.
"Don't worry. I'm not that stupid yet! I have my own ways. Just go back first. Don't drink so much alone on weekdays. It's very harmful to your health."
Lin Lang took a deep breath. At that moment, he really wanted to rush to the Suzaku Sect and kill Qi Yan, a bastard. With Lin Lang's current strength, he could kill Qi Yan in a flash, but the Suzaku Sect was still
There are three elders. Even with Hua Luofeng's help, it would be difficult for him to take Qi Yan's life and escape intact.
Although he couldn't kill Qi Yan, Lin Lang quietly had another plan in his mind.
"Brother Lin! Wait!! Can you take me with you!"
Meng Fanjiang rolled up his sleeves and trousers as if he suddenly made up his mind.
What was displayed in front of Lin Lang was a patchwork of scars.
Knife wounds, sword wounds, fist and foot scars. Some of them have just become scars, and some seem to have passed a long time, leaving only faint traces.
But the superposition of these scars is shocking to those who look at it, and it is difficult to imagine what kind of cruel hands Meng Fanjiang suffered.
"Who did this?!"
Lin Lang was shocked and angry, and then he figured it out.
"Li Shanhe?"
Meng Fanjiang nodded slightly, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"Since Brother Lin left, my situation has not been so easy. Li Shanhe will come to me every now and then to make trouble, and my strength is low. Everything I have practiced in the past six months since I started is used to resist beatings. Haha, say
I feel really ashamed to have come.”
"Instead of doing this, it's better to work with Brother Lin to avoid being bullied by evil people again!"
Listening to Meng Fanjiang's words, Lin Lang was shocked. He had defeated Li Shanhe before and made him suffer such humiliation. Li Shanhe naturally took out all his grievances on Meng Fanjiang.
Seeing the shocking wounds on Meng Fanjiang's body, Lin Lang felt both tense and sad.
If you can't even protect women and brothers, then what's the point of practicing Taoism?!
Qi Yan, Li Shanhe. Just wait! The next time I come back, it will be the end of you two!
Lin Lang took a deep breath, and then took out a bunch of elixir treasures from the storage ring. Meng Fanjiang had never heard of these elixir treasures, let alone seeing them.
Every pill exudes an intoxicating fragrance. Every treasure exudes a gleaming light. Most of them are Huang-level magic weapons. There are also many Xuan-level magic weapons that Lin Lang obtained from Fan Yuankai and the others.
.He all recommended it to Meng Fanjiang.
Lin Lang even wanted to take off the earth-level treasure armor he was wearing and give it to Meng Fanjiang. But he still understood the principle that a man is innocent but carrying a jade is guilty.
In the Suzaku Sect, Meng Fanjiang doesn't have a backer like a demon spirit to support him like he does. If he gives him more valuable things, it will cause trouble.
"Brother Meng! Take these things and hold on for a while. I promise, it won't take long before I return to the Suzaku Sect. By then, I will kill Li Shanhe!"
Lin Lang's eyes flashed fiercely, and Meng Fanjiang knew very well that Lin Lang was definitely not joking.
But he still pushed these things back to Lin Lang.
"Although I don't know Lin Lang's current situation, Brother Lin must need these things more than me. Besides, I really can't ask for such precious things."
Meng Fanjiang rejected Lin Lang's kindness.
"It's just a few more beatings. No matter how powerful Li Shanhe is, he can't beat the disciples of the sect to death in front of the elder leader, right? Brother Lin, you don't have to worry, brother, I can stand it!"
Meng Fanjiang beat his chest and showed his white teeth.
Lin Lang finally knew how his originally strong body had fallen into this state. He finally knew why the always optimistic Meng Fanjiang came to drink alone to relieve his worries.
Lin Lang deeply remembered this emotion in his heart, and without too many words, he still pushed the magic pill to Meng Fanjiang.
"Brother Hua, let's go!"
Lin Lang waved to Hua Luofeng beside him, and then they stood side by side and walked out of the tavern.
Meng Fanjiang looked at the backs of the two people and was speechless for a long time.
He vaguely felt that Lin Lang was a little different from before. His aura and personality seemed to be more reserved, like a dormant beast. If he didn't move, he would move like thunder. And the young man next to him was even more impressive.
People can't see through it. In other words, it puts more pressure on him. It's like... the feeling it gave him when he faced the two elders and the leader!
Could it be the wandering spirit realm? How is it possible for such a young wandering spirit realm!
Meng Fanjiang immediately rejected this ridiculous idea in his heart. He didn't know what Lin Lang had experienced these days and what friends he had made, but he believed in what Lin Lang said. One day, he would return to the Suzaku Sect.
With an invincible attitude.
…
The two of them left the tavern, Hua Luofeng said calmly.
"Where do we go now?"
Lin Lang pondered for a moment.
"Go to Pancheng, the imperial city of Wind and Fire Kingdom!"
"Okay!"
Hua Luofeng didn't ask Lin Lang where he was going and what he was doing. He just whistled and summoned the sharp-beaked eagle. The two of them got on the eagle's back and flew towards the west.
