Chapter 385 His Senior Brother Could Not Have Been Killed by Lin Xiaoman

Lin Xiaoman didn't know how long it took the Jinwu clan's talisman masters to learn new talismans in the past. She thought that the Jinwu clan's talent in talismans was average because they looked worse than herself.

Take Wu Shuangxue for example. She is said to be a very talented talisman master in the Jinwu clan. However, she only needs to learn a high-level earth-level talisman that is exclusive to their Jinwu clan, and it will take her more than half a year to succeed. It is indeed a bit slow.

But seeing the astonished and envious expressions of Wu Shuangxue and other "classmates" in the communication class, Lin Xiaoman was speechless.

She now had some understanding of why the Golden Crow Clan used the sacred tree to keep her here.

As the days passed, Lin Xiaoman, apart from attending the talisman exchange class, spent all his time practicing and learning new talismans, and comprehending the talisman strokes.

The schedule was tight and the days were very fulfilling. In the blink of an eye, it was a year after Chen Shuyan and the others left. Lin Xiaoman's cultivation level was improving little by little, and his cultivation level in talismans was improving visibly.

Especially when it comes to creating talismans by herself, it is now easier for her to create talismans than before. After all, the spiritual power of the Nascent Soul stage makes it much easier to comprehend the strokes of the talismans.

That day, she was drawing talismans in the house when Wu Yu suddenly knocked on the door.

"Xiaoman, Xiaoman."

"Karasuba, what's wrong?"

Lin Xiaoman was surprised by his anxious look and quickly invited him in.

"Someone's coming from Penglai."

Wu Yu entered the house, sat down, and quickly set up the barrier, then spoke in a low voice.

"What?"

Lin Xiaoman's heart tightened. Does Penglai value Li Mang so much?

"The other party went straight to the Jinwu tribe and is now in the Jinwu tribe courtyard in the Demon City. I guess they are preparing to come to the tribe's territory."

Wu Yu hadn't said anything else. He guessed that the other party would ask to see Lin Xiaoman.

Lin Xiaoman frowned, then relaxed. She was different now. Now that she had let go of her worries, many things were not so difficult to face.

"Come if you want. We have nothing to do with Penglai. Just follow them."

Wu Yu was slightly stunned. Seeing that Lin Xiaoman really didn't care, he felt worried and relieved at the same time.

"That's right. We didn't do anything bad. It was their people who attacked us first. Never mind. When the time comes, we can go meet them."

Lin Xiaoman raised his eyebrows and nodded calmly, "Yes."

In short, Li Mang’s affairs had nothing to do with her. She was just a small talisman cultivator in the Jindan stage.

Less than three days after Lin Xiaoman knew that someone had come from Penglai, she met the other person. He was a stranger, and there was Ouyang Zhou beside him.

And that strange face had an especially frightening aura and pressure. His hair and beard were all white, but his eyes were bright and sharp, especially when he saw Lin Xiaoman.

Lin Xiaoman's heart tightened, and she was overwhelmed by the pressure. Almost instantly, her whole body was covered with sweat and her body was shaking. If she hadn't gritted her teeth and held on, she would probably have kneeled down.

"Fellow Daoist from Maoming, you have come all the way here. Please sit here."

In the main hall of the Jinwu tribe, the Jinwu tribe leader suddenly waved his hand and said with a smile.

At that moment, Lin Xiaoman felt relieved. She let out a long breath and panted softly, while stabilizing her lower body so that her legs would not go weak and she would kneel down.

"Xiao Man, this is Maoming Zhenzun from Penglai. He is here to investigate the death of Li Mang from Penglai."

Lin Xiaoman was moved when he heard the voice of the Golden Crow leader. He quickly bowed his head and saluted the person above him, "Lin Xiaoman of the Tianyan Sect, greetings to the True Master Maoming."

"snort."

Maoming Zhenzun looked at Lin Xiaoman below and snorted coldly.

Suddenly turning around to look at Ouyang Zhou, "Didn't you say he was a talisman cultivator in the late Jindan stage? This level of cultivation is not right."

As a result, he became even more suspicious of Lin Xiaoman.

The leader of the Jinwu clan also heard from Wu Peng that the cultivator who died in Penglai was suspected to be Lin Xiaoman, but he just thought it was funny. That was a Yuanying stage sword cultivator from Penglai, and Lin Xiaoman was just a small talisman cultivator in the late Jindan stage.

However, after seeing a seventh-level white cat beside Lin Xiaoman, the leader of the Jinwu tribe had some doubts in his heart, but at this point, it was impossible for him to help Penglai.

Their Jinwu clan has nothing to do with Penglai.

Ouyang Zhou was also surprised by Lin Xiaoman's changes. It had only been a year, but she had improved so much that her mental power had even broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

"Zhenzun, disciple..."

He hurriedly tried to explain, but the leader of the Jinwu clan had already spoken.

"Fellow Daoist Maoming has misunderstood. Lin Xiaoman suddenly had an epiphany a year ago, which gave her the opportunity to break through. Before that, she was indeed in the late Jindan stage."

Maoming Zhenzun looked at the leader of the Jinwu tribe and said, "The leader of the Wu tribe thinks highly of Lin Xiaoman."

"Hahahaha, the demon race and humans have lived in peace for thousands of years. We can't let this incident affect the relationship between the two races."

He paused again and continued, "Xiao Man is now an honored guest of my Golden Crow Clan. I truly value her."

Upon hearing this, Maoming Zhenzun's expression changed slightly and he stared at the Jinwu clan leader for a long time.

Lin Xiaoman was also very surprised and touched. He didn't expect that the leader of the Jinwu tribe would help him so much.

No matter what, since the leader of the Jinwu tribe has supported herself like this, even if Maoming Zhenzun of Penglai wants to do something, he will not attack her in the Jinwu tribe’s territory.

As long as she stayed in the Jinwu tribe's territory, nothing would happen. At least, in the remaining eight years, as long as she didn't leave the tribe's territory, she would be absolutely safe.

"Okay, in that case, I want to go see the place where Li Mang and Lin Xiaoman met."

The leader of the Jinwu tribe laughed in his heart. It sounded nice to say that this was a place of meeting, but in fact it was just a place for a sneak attack on Lin Xiaoman.

"Okay, Wu Peng, you know where it is, right? Take us there."

Lin Xiaoman naturally had to follow, but of course, she was passive.

When they arrived at the place, Lin Xiaoman saw Maoming Zhenzun standing in the air for a long time and began to cast a spell. For a moment, the wind and clouds surged, and the originally clear blue sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds. Then a bolt of lightning struck down, and a picture suddenly appeared on the ground which was originally empty.

Lin Xiaoman widened her eyes in surprise, her heart pounding. The picture showed Li Mang, her and Wu Yu, and it was the scene of Li Mang's sneak attack on them.

Seeing this, Ouyang Zhou exclaimed in surprise. He subconsciously took a step forward, and then saw the picture flashing. It was obvious that Li Mang had the upper hand. If this continued, Lin Xiaoman and Wu Yu would definitely die.

After that, Wu Yu carried Lin Xiaoman to escape, but for some reason, Wu Yu ran away and Lin Xiaoman fell down.

Then the picture disappeared.

In an instant, everyone's expressions changed.

Ouyang Zhou turned his head to look at Lin Xiaoman, then turned away with a grim expression.

From the looks of it, the senior brother was fine at the time, not even injured, but Lin Xiaoman was seriously injured, and she was the only one there, and Wu Yu ran away.

In this case, it is impossible that his senior brother was killed by Lin Xiaoman. She was able to escape probably because of the life-saving treasure given by the elders of the sect.
