In the main hall of the Sun and Moon Sect, Dongfang Bai sat high on the throne, listening to a series of issues reported by his subordinates. His face showed no sadness or joy, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
"Master, that Lin Lang is so audacious that he killed Elder Tong over a disagreement. He is truly despicable."
"That's right, Master, please execute Lin Lang on the spot to serve as a warning to others. Otherwise, where will the dignity of our Holy Church and the Master be?"
…
"Alright, I've already heard about this matter, you can leave now!"
Dongfang Bai's cold voice spread throughout the hall. Everyone took a sneak peek but didn't notice any anger on Dongfang Bai's face.
"Master, that Lin Lang..."
"I don't want to say it again, get lost!"
Dongfang Bai's face turned cold and his tone was filled with deep chill.
Everyone trembled, not daring to say anything, and quickly took their leave.
"Xiang Zuoshi, is what they said true?"
Dongfang Bai asked softly. Xiang Wentian, who was standing beside him, had a blank expression on his face, but he couldn't guess the leader's true thoughts.
"Replying to the leader, Elder Tong was indeed killed by Elder Lin, but there are reasons for it. The leader should give Elder Lin a chance to explain!"
Dongfang Bai glanced at Xiang Wentian and smiled.
"Haha! It seems that Envoy Xiang Zuo and Elder Lin have a good relationship!"
Xiang Wentian's face was filled with panic, and he quickly bowed and said, "This subordinate has only just met Elder Lin, and I have absolutely no intention of pleading for him. I beg the Master to understand!"
Dongfang Bai waved his hand, slowly half-lying on the throne, and said lazily: "Forget it, then let's do as you say and let Lin Lang explain it himself!"
"yes!"
He said respectfully to Xiang Wentian, then slowly left the hall.
Walking out of the hall, Xiang Wentian's face was uncertain. Judging from the leader's attitude, it seemed that he had no intention of punishing Lin Lang at all.
Lin Lang dared to kill Tong Baixiong in front of everyone. Was this a momentary impulse, audacity, or...
He doesn't worry about the leader's punishment at all!
It seems that the relationship between the two is not as simple as it seems!
Soon, Xiang Wentian arrived at the yard where Lin Lang was.
"Elder Lin, the leader invites you!" he shouted loudly outside the door.
Time was limited, so Xiang Wentian didn't bother to be polite with Lin Lang.
In the backyard, Lin Lang was studying the Heart-stimulating Palm he got from Yu Canghai. When he heard Xiang Wentian's shouting outside the door, he was stunned.
"Dongfang Bai is back so soon?
Shouldn't we be enjoying the sights and sounds with Linghu Chong, forgetting everything else?"
Lin Lang put down the book in his hand, gathered his strength, and instantly jumped onto the roof. After a few flashes, he arrived in front of Xiang Wentian.
"Xiang Zuoshi, the leader is back?" Lin Lang said with a smile and bowed.
When Xiang Wentian saw that Lin Lang was full of internal energy and his expression was full of confidence, his face changed.
Lin Lang's internal strength increased so rapidly. Could it be that he practiced some extraordinary martial arts?
Or has Lin Lang been hiding his incompetence all along?
His complexion quickly recovered and he said with a smile, "Elder Lin, the leader wants to see you. Please don't say anything wrong later, or the leader will be displeased."
"Haha, thank you for reminding the Left Envoy. The leader is only asking about Tong Baixiong. I know what's going on!"
"Then please ask Elder Lin to accompany Xiang to the main hall!"
Xiang Wentian smiled, then his body shape changed, he tapped his feet lightly, and leaped forward.
Lin Lang raised his eyebrows. Ouch! Is this old man testing me?
Immediately, he shook his internal strength, stepped heavily on the ground, and suddenly jumped high, catching up with Xiang Wentian in an instant.
"Turn left. Lin will go ahead. Please take it easy and watch your back!"
Lin Lang laughed loudly, and his strong internal strength burst out again. After a few jumps, he left Xiang Wentian behind.
Xiang Wentian felt the oppressive feeling coming from Lin Lang, and his face became solemn.
"Such profound internal strength! How did Lin Lang achieve this at such a young age?
Could it be... the Star Absorbing Technique?"
He suddenly thought of it, and then denied the guess.
It is impossible for Lin Lang to master the Star Absorbing Technique. Only Master Ren in this world knows this skill.
Apart from the Star-Absorbing Art, the only possible explanation is that Lin Lang is a true martial arts genius, and one year of martial arts training is equivalent to ten years of training for an ordinary person!
This may be the reason why Dongfang Bubai values Lin Lang so much!
…
Lin Lang came to the outside of the Holy Church Hall, calmed his turbulent internal energy, and walked gently into the hall.
"Hahaha! Why did the leader come back just now? I really miss Lin so much!"
Lin Lang laughed loudly, but when he saw Dongfang Bai rolled his eyes at him, his laughter became a little awkward.
"Elder Lin, what are you up to? You just arrived at Blackwood Cliff and you killed my trusted aide. Do you really think I dare not kill you?"
Having said that, Dongfang Bai's smile suddenly changed, his face turned cold, and an inexplicable aura enveloped Lin Lang.
"boom!"
As Dongfang Bai's aura reached Lin Lang, his expression remained unchanged, but the internal energy in his body seemed to have been stimulated by something and burst out violently.
"not good!"
Lin Lang's face changed. Why would this internal force show off at the critical moment?
"Um?"
Dongfang Bai asked in surprise, "When did you acquire such profound inner strength?"
"No, a few months ago you had no foundation in internal energy. Even if you had incredible talent, it would be impossible for you to cultivate such powerful internal energy in such a short time!"
After saying this, Dongfang Bai looked at Lin Lang coldly.
"You practiced the Star Absorbing Technique in this house!"
Lin Lang said stubbornly, "Impossible! I am a gentleman. It is impossible for me to steal your things. You must be mistaken!"
Dongfang Bai sneered: "Wait until I capture you, and see if you still dare to be stubborn!"
