Three years ago, he was the young master of the most prominent family in the capital, but due to his grandfather's superstition, he was sent to a Taoist temple where he suffered hardship yet ma...
"you……"
Zhou Xuantian's expression froze again.
The Dragon Group actually investigated even one of their own people!
But he was helpless; he couldn't change what had happened today, neither emotionally nor logically.
In full view of everyone.
They were humiliated and suffered a great loss.
He watched helplessly as Lin Wuyou died right before his eyes.
Left with no other choice, he could only leave in silence.
The onlookers around them were even more talkative, pointing and whispering about Zhou Xuantian's back.
And Lin Jinglong's name.
It all started with this great battle.
It truly spreads to all corners of the world!
Behind them, Chong Wanfeng's gaze towards Lin Jinglong changed. He had originally thought that Lin Jinglong was only skilled in alchemy.
But I never expected that his combat power could rival that of a mid-level fighter!
Most importantly, his temperament was terrifying; he even killed the emperor's son over a mere disagreement.
"Sigh! It seems we're in for trouble, but since we're going to serve Master Lin for three years, we have no choice but to stick to this path to the bitter end."
A bitter smile appeared on Chong Wanfeng's lips.
Jun Shuiqian and Wu Tongtian both wore wry smiles.
"Master Lin is really too ruthless!"
"Killing Lin Wuyou and slapping Zhou Xuantian in the face, this storm won't end here!"
"The Hidden World Alliance will definitely find a way to retaliate!"
The two whispered to each other.
As the news gradually spread.
The death of Lin Wuyou shocked the entire capital, including other members and departments of the Elders' Council.
As for the reclusive families...
It was absolutely stunning!
Lin Family Ancestral Hall.
Inside a very large hall.
A middle-aged man with slightly graying temples gathered more than a hundred high-ranking members of the family. Before them was a extinguished soul lamp.
Everyone's face was somewhat pale.
The patriarch, Lin Tianwei, looked embarrassed.
"When Wuyou came out of seclusion this time, he took the initiative to go down the mountain to train and solve the external troubles for his family, but he never expected to die at the hands of Lin Jinglong."
"He is, after all, the Emperor's son, and the Ancestor's most beloved youngest son. Should we inform the Ancestor, who is currently in seclusion?"
An elder nearby raised a question.
Lin Tianwei hesitated.
As the head of the family, he has a son of an emperor who has died outside. If the patriarch were to hold him accountable, he would not escape punishment.
But this kind of news can't be kept secret.
Just as he was hesitating.
A majestic voice suddenly rang out from the main hall.
“I am aware of my son’s death. You should inform Zhuge Zun, the head of the Zhuge family, and have him use the Zhuge family’s secret method of summoning souls to gather my son’s remnant soul.”
"Only in this way can Wuyou have the possibility of living a second life."
This person was none other than Lin Chanxiao, the ancestor of the Lin clan, who held the imperial rank.
Lin Tianwei and the others all knelt down.
"Yes, we'll arrange it immediately!"
They immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Chanxiao's voice is no longer heard.
After kneeling on the ground for a while, Lin Tianwei suddenly asked tentatively, "Ancestor, what should we do with Lin Jinglong? According to the intelligence gathered by our spies, his bloodline talent is even stronger than that of the Emperor's son, and he is suspected to be born with Emperor blood."
For a long time, the authoritative voice gave no instructions.
Until everyone present thought that Lin Chanxiao was unwilling to comment on Lin Jinglong's matter.
That voice became ethereal.
It reached everyone's ears once again.
"Even if he was born with imperial blood, he has not yet grown up. If he cannot be used by the family, keeping him will be a major threat."
"Kill him as soon as possible!"
"yes!"
Lin Tianwei and the others broke out in a cold sweat.
The old ancestor's voice was filled with murderous intent!
It's easy to imagine that Lin Wuyou's death had truly enraged him.
The rage of an Emperor-level being needs no further explanation!
Immediately, the Lin family sent a messenger to the Zhuge family to find the patriarch, Zhuge Zun, and ask him to use the method of summoning souls to see if he could retrieve Lin Wuyou's remnant soul.
Even if they are saved, they will lose their physical body and bloodline, but at least they will still exist in this world instead of becoming wandering ghosts!
It was nighttime.
Lin Jinglong arranged for Chong Wanfeng and his daughter to stay at the Dragon Soul Club, in the villa next to Wu Yuehan's.
"From now on, you will stay here and guard this place. Do not wander around unless I need you."
“I understand. I’ve worked as a bodyguard before.”
Chong Wanfeng said quite frankly.
Although he was a mid-level Martial Emperor, he showed great respect for Lin Jinglong and had no arrogance whatsoever.
There was nothing he could do; Lin Jinglong had saved his daughter's life.
Lin Jinglong nodded in satisfaction.
After returning to the villa next door.
Besides Wu Yuehan, there was another person waiting for him, Lin Tianlang.
His expression was very solemn.
"You've really messed up this time!"
"You mean the matter of me killing Lin Wuyou?"
"That's right, he was an imperial prince, a direct blood relative of an emperor-level powerhouse. Now that Lin Wuyou is dead, the Lin family will definitely retaliate with all their might!"
Lin Jinglong fell silent.
He naturally understood this principle.
But if he were afraid of the consequences, he wouldn't have killed anyone.
"But you don't need to worry too much. After all, Emperor-level cultivators are usually in seclusion, and you are currently only at the first level of Martial Emperor. He probably won't take action personally, so there might still be a chance for things to turn around."
Lin Jinglong's expression turned serious.
Lin Tianlang immediately comforted him.
"I came here mainly to bring you some news: the matter you were looking for about the Heavenly Silkworm Sect has finally been resolved."
"Oh? Is it a cultivation technique or something else?"
