At this moment, the Fourth Elder raised his hand and waved it upwards. An invisible aura dispersed the thunderclouds in the sky, and this aura, through the heavenly lightning, rebounded onto Lin Jinglong.
It slowed his breathing for a moment.
After he had been gathering his strength for a long time, his strongest attack, which had already killed Zhou Xuantian, was interrupted.
He squinted at the Fourth Elder.
"Young man, be lenient when you can. Sometimes, letting someone live is more useful than killing them. Besides, you're already the biggest winner today since you've survived."
"What's the meaning?"
Lin Jinglong did not understand what the middle-aged man was saying.
But the other party showed no intention of explaining.
Instead, he looked at Zhou Xuantian, Long Qi, and the others, and said calmly, "I have already notified the Second Elder to convene a temporary elders meeting to discuss today's events."
"The meeting will discuss how to punish Zhou Xuantian."
"And, some unresolved matters!"
An unresolved matter?
Lin Jinglong naturally couldn't understand it.
He had almost no dealings with the elders and had no understanding of the turbulent undercurrents within the upper echelons of the Great Xia Dynasty.
All he knew was that he could no longer kill Zhou Xuantian.
"pity!"
Lin Jinglong paid the price with serious injuries.
He had already pushed the Nirvana Technique to its limit, allowing him to unleash combat power comparable to a high-ranking Martial Emperor.
Add to that the terrifying destructive power of the Heavenly Thunder.
Zhou Xuantian has a chance to be killed by him!
However, the presence of so many powerful figures, along with the Fourth Elder who personally intervened, disrupted Lin Jinglong's plan.
He gave Zhou Xuantian a deep look.
Let's keep today's grudge in our hearts for now.
If you get the chance, you must kill this person!
As for the Fourth Elder's earnest advice and riddles about how the living are more useful than the dead, he didn't take them to heart at all.
If you don't kill people, are you going to chant sutras until they die?
Lin Jinglong shook his head, took out more than ten Qi and Blood Pills from his sleeve, and stuffed them all into his mouth.
In addition, there is the restorative effect of the Heavenly Silkworm Spirit Silk.
In just a few breaths, Lin Jinglong had fully recovered and was as healthy as if he had never experienced the great battle.
Only under the watchful eyes of everyone.
His body was charred black, and his clothes were tattered, making him look like a beggar.
"Hmph! You want to settle scores with me, don't you?"
"Then let's settle this score properly!"
"I also need to figure out what you, Zhong Lixiu, and the Dragon Group are trying to do!"
Zhou Xuantian flicked his sleeves and walked out of the crowd.
Everyone else present breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhong Huai ran over to Lin Jinglong and observed him closely, discovering that Lin Jinglong had recovered instantly.
"As expected of Mr. Lin!"
Zhong Huai wore a fawning smile.
Lin Jinglong waved his hand.
"I must thank you Tianji Martial Academy this time!"
"No need to thank me, we're all on the same side!"
The other elders also gathered around.
They were very grateful to Lin Jinglong.
Long Qi, who introduced Lin Jinglong to the Tianji Martial Academy, was also shocked when he saw this scene.
"To be able to subdue even this group of stubborn old men, that's quite a skill. I have to admit I'm not as good as them."
Wu Yuehan pushed through the crowd and rushed to Lin Jinglong, looking worried. But seeing that Lin Jinglong's injuries had healed, she was completely relieved.
Xiao Long, standing at a distance, observed Lin Jinglong with his hands behind his back.
"Father, what do you think of this man?"
"good!"
Xiao Long nodded to Xiao Zhenguo, the God of War beside him.
"Only one good word?"
"It couldn't be better. Xiao Wu has found a good family. She's so lucky."
Xiao Long was very satisfied with Lin Jinglong.
Afterwards, accompanied by Wu Yuehan, Lin Jinglong took the initiative to meet Xiao Long, who had come to help.
However, it is still under observation.
He discovered that the old man was also a Martial Emperor.
However, due to his advanced age and the lingering ailments from years of fighting, his vitality has gradually begun to decline.
Lin Jinglong glanced at Wu Yuehan.
I didn't want her to worry.
I silently remembered this.
After this matter is over, I will find an opportunity to treat Xiao Long and extend his life for a while.
Then, Qin Suifeng appeared behind him and transmitted his voice.
"Let's find a quiet place. I'll introduce you to the Fourth Elder and the factions within the Elders' Council, so you won't be at a loss about who to ask for help if you clash with Zhou Xuantian again."
Lin Jinglong nodded slightly.
They went to a meeting room with Qin Suifeng.
"You acted too impulsively today. Fortunately, it didn't cause a major disaster. With the help of the Dragon Group, Tianji Martial Academy, and Old Master Xiao Long, we can at least pretend nothing happened."
"If I hadn't acted impulsively, I would probably be a corpse by now. I can't wait for you guys to come and help me."
Lin Jinglong shook his head repeatedly.
He had put up with Chen Gong and the others for a long time.
He had no choice but to fight to the death when Zhou Xuantian personally intervened. He even knew that in the council hall, even if he could kill Zhou Xuantian in the end, he would still be at odds.
They had no way to survive.
“I understand you, but you should really be grateful to the Fourth Elder. If it weren’t for his secret help, you would be in even greater trouble.”
"When did he secretly help you?"
"Don't forget, this council hall is set up with a great formation. When you fought Zhou Xuantian, the formation never worked. It was the Fourth Elder who was controlling it. He is the number one formation master in the Great Xia Dynasty!"
"I see!"
This cleared up one of Lin Jinglong's doubts.
"So this Fourth Elder seems to be at odds with Zhou Xuantian?"
"It's more than just discord."
Qin Suifeng sneered.
"They have been fighting each other for over thirty years. If it weren't for their status as elders, they would have already fought to the death long ago!"
