Inside the secret base.
Huangfu Chao, who had been arrogant, was now looking at Mingcheng and Heiyue with a furious yet mocking smile.
"It's one thing that the Thousand-Mile Soul-Chasing Incense has failed, but I sent the two Elders of the Underworld from the capital two days ago. Why haven't they arrived in Southern Xinjiang after two days?"
Huangfu Chao was furious.
His face turned red as he glared at Mingcheng and questioned him.
Hei Yue casually remarked from the side, "My two masters are getting old. They just finished participating in the martial arts competition at Qingxu Cave Heaven and made great contributions to the Elders' Council. It's time for them to rest and recuperate."
"Is it a problem that they spend more time traveling?"
"My master is also a human being, and humans need to rest!"
"You're talking nonsense!"
Huangfu Chao started cursing loudly.
"They are both Martial Emperors at the peak of the ninth rank, and their bodies are strong enough to eat a whole cow. They are not ordinary people, so why do they need to rest for so long?"
"Furthermore, have the elders' council been providing them with insufficient cultivation resources? How could the injuries they sustained in the cave have taken so long to heal?"
Are you deliberately trying to antagonize me?
Black Moon and Ming City looked at each other in bewilderment.
Isn't this obvious?
The two elders of the Netherworld were among the founders of the Dark Division. However, due to their own aptitude and the limited resources of the Elders' Council, they were unable to help them reach the Martial Emperor realm.
Otherwise, why would he have taken a liking to Huangfu Chao?
In their eyes, this guy was no different from the people in the Hidden World Alliance. He was only able to reach the Martial Emperor realm by relying on his Huangfu family bloodline and the family's full support.
The secret agents treated Huangfu Chao, the special envoy, with perfunctory indifference.
Huangfu Chao finally understood their attitude towards him, but he was helpless against the Dark Division. For many years, the Elders' Council had been unable to reach the Southern Frontier.
Only the secret service had been lying in wait here for a year, establishing their intelligence network.
Finding someone is like finding a needle in a haystack.
With only a dozen or so men he brought from the Elders' Council, he couldn't make much of a difference.
It was during his furious outburst that...
One of his men suddenly burst into the conference room.
"Your Excellency, there's something going on!"
"Spit it out!"
Huangfu Chao said impatiently.
The subordinate glanced at Mingcheng and his companion.
He went to Huangfu Chao's side and whispered, "Our people have been keeping an eye on Dark Star Auction House for the past few days, and they've finally made a move!"
"We've discovered that Lin Jinglong left the manor!"
"They went to a branch of the Tianlong Martial Arts School!"
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, Huangfu Chao's eyes lit up, and he looked at Mingcheng with a sneer.
“You won’t let me find Lin Jinglong, but I’ve already found my people, and he’s now involved with Tianlong Martial Arts School. He must have clues about Yang Xinhu.”
"My dozen or so men are worth more than your thousands of secret service troops!"
"It's killing two birds with one stone!"
After he finished speaking, he ignored Mingcheng and the other man, and led his men to hurry to the branch of the Discovery Dragon Martial Arts School.
Mingcheng remained in the conference room with a gloomy face.
"Hmph! He told us to find Yang Xinhu, but he sent all his men out to look for Lin Jinglong. That guy is still up to no good."
"So what should we do?"
Black Moon said with some concern.
She also did not want to clash with Lin Jinglong.
The Dark Division's attitude towards Lin Jinglong is completely different from that of Huangfu Qingming; they are more eager to win Lin Jinglong over for cooperation.
"Let's chase after them and see!"
Mingcheng mobilized his secret forces to discreetly track the suspects.
On the other side.
Lin Jinglong had learned Yang Xinhu's whereabouts from Qin Weihao; he was in the basement of a building called Huajin Building.
"The patriarch has been in seclusion inside for the past few days, and the necessary cultivation resources are all provided by our Qin Clan Chamber of Commerce."
Qin Weihao said quickly.
"We have already informed you of the situation of Patriarch Yang. Could you please let us go? Also, our Qin Clan Chamber of Commerce is also moving out of Tianbao City. We would appreciate it if the members of the White Lotus Society could do us a favor."
Why move away from Tianbao City?
Lin Jinglong looked at him suspiciously.
Qin Weihao opened his mouth, but Qi Dong stopped him.
"We've said everything we needed to say, so please stop making things difficult for us."
Lin Jinglong let out a cold laugh.
He took out the Five Elements Dragon Roar Blade.
"Gentlemen, you don't think I'm here to ask you for favors, do you? Yang Xinhu has committed numerous atrocities in the Southern Frontier, and his three thousand puppets are all made from living people. Your two families must have provided a lot of help."
"I have no qualms about using torture to extract confessions!"
He stared at the two people in front of him with a murderous look.
In these three days, in addition to completing the Yang family puppetry technique and incorporating paper puppetry techniques to make it a new immortal-level puppetry technique, he also...
He also refined the power of the Five Elements Dragon Soul, making himself more and more compatible with the Five Elements, raising his realm to the peak of the ninth level, and getting closer and closer to the Martial Emperor.
He only released a small portion of his imposing aura.
Qi Dong, on the other side, almost wet his pants in fear.
He said repeatedly, "When Patriarch Yang summoned us a few days ago, he said that the Lin family was going to make a big move in Tianbao City, and a ruthless one at that."
"Given the way these reclusive families operate, I fear Tianbao City will soon be plunged into chaos. Our betrayal of Patriarch Yang is also a way to avoid disaster."
"There are many more things we don't know!"
Qi Dong was not lying this time.
I honestly said everything that needed to be said.
Lin Jinglong pondered, realizing that what was about to happen in Tianbao City and the Holy Realm was definitely not simple!
