Ge Ling'er rolled her eyes.
"What are you thinking? Of course not!"
She explained a few more points.
It was said that she was the strongest among them, so she stayed behind to draw away the pursuers. As for Nangong Hongwu and the others, they fled to Chiyun City near Chiyun Ridge.
That place was a medium-sized city with a population of several million. When they went in, it was like throwing a stone into the sea, since Xuanling Temple was, after all, an outside force.
It would be impossible to find Nangong Hongwu and her group in a city of one million people.
"However, we don't have much time left. Although they didn't have time to silence us, once they realize this, they might try to seize the opportunity of Heaven."
Lin Jinglong nodded.
His gaze shifted back to the two red-robed monks.
The other party was also scrutinizing him, but one of them suddenly showed a noticeable change in expression.
"Are you Lin Jinglong?"
"Oh? You know me?"
Although Lin Jinglong has accomplished many great things since the opening of the Holy Realm, it is rare for someone to recognize him directly before he even announces his name.
The monk who recognized him put his hands together in prayer.
“Our Xuanling Temple has no intention of clashing with Benefactor Lin. Since this Miss Ge is Benefactor Lin’s subordinate, we will leave now.”
The man's expression was very solemn as he prepared to turn and leave.
The red-robed monk beside him was rather strange.
"Senior Brother Mi, what does this mean?"
“You’ve just arrived in Southern Xinjiang and don’t know who Lin Jinglong is. It was this man who fought Lin Ruchu in the great battle at Tianbao City a month ago and ultimately broke the Immortal Soul Devouring Array!”
The monk, addressed as Brother Mi, transmitted his voice.
The other person was still somewhat unconvinced.
He continued telepathically, "But the Fourth Elder's order is for us to kill all those who steal the secret."
"Shut up! Don't say another word!"
Brother Mi kept walking.
After seeing the person in front of me clearly.
His mind was already on edge.
But after he and his junior brother had taken a few steps, Lin Jinglong's voice came from behind them.
"Who gave you permission to leave?"
Lin Jinglong's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
Upon hearing this, the two men froze, and Senior Brother Mi turned to look at Lin Jinglong.
His eyes showed nothing but apprehension.
There was also a hint of anger.
“We come from the Xuanling Temple in the desolate snow mountain region. Since we are unwilling to deal with you, you shouldn’t be causing trouble for us!”
"But I've never heard of any Xuanling Temple."
Lin Jinglong chuckled.
He displayed his powerful aura.
In a flash, he landed in front of the two men. The younger monk next to Senior Brother Mi seemed to be somewhat unconvinced by Lin Jinglong.
Although Xuanling Temple is one of the few people who have witnessed the great battle between Lin Jinglong and Lin Ruchu up close and who have broken the Immortal Soul Devouring Array composed of three Ascension Platforms.
But they are a clandestine force.
Of course, they also have their own pride.
"Senior brother, since this person wants to stop us, let's continue to obey the Fourth Elder's orders and kill him!"
After he finished speaking...
The monk then suddenly attacked.
He threw a punch at Lin Jinglong, who was standing in front of him.
What he used appeared to be just ordinary martial arts, but he exuded a strong, fierce aura, and the wind generated by his punches even had a unique, fishy smell.
Behind them, Ge Ling'er kindly reminded them, "Be careful, their techniques are very insidious, and they have already refined highly poisonous spiritual energy."
"Hehe, don't worry."
Lin Jinglong raised his hand and grabbed the other person's fist.
A surge of karmic fire spread from his body.
Although the young monk was at the Celestial Martial Emperor realm, the flames still spread throughout his body instantly after he came into contact with the karmic fire.
It only lasted a moment.
Then a startling wail erupted.
He struggled incessantly, screaming in terror.
"Senior brother, save me!"
"What kind of fire is this?"
"Help me!"
In just a few breaths.
This person had already been burned to a crisp.
Lin Jinglong looked at his senior brother Mi, who hadn't made a move yet, with a cold gaze.
"Why aren't you making a move?"
Senior Brother Mi held one hand up in front of him, closed his eyes, and couldn't bear to look at the corpse on the ground; after all, it was his junior brother.
But at the same time, he was also extremely afraid of Lin Jinglong.
He knew he had no chance against Lin Jinglong, and if he insisted on fighting him, he was doomed.
His voice trembled slightly.
“Benefactor Lin, we are from Xuanling Temple.”
"I already said, I've never heard of it!"
Lin Jinglong looked at him coldly.
Then he said calmly, "What did you find in Crimson Cloud Ridge?"
He was waiting for this guy to confess honestly.
Otherwise, the soul-searching technique used on Shen Zui should also be used on this guy.
After hesitating for a moment.
This person still had to tell the truth.
He told Lin Jinglong that they had found clues about the Heavenly Dao within an ancient ruin in Chiyun Ridge; it seemed to be a stone tablet.
"However, the stone tablet does not contain any Heavenly Dao opportunities, but rather information about the power of the Heavenly Dao. Within a secret realm, our Xuanling Temple is trying to open the secret treasure, but it was interrupted by your people."
That's why they had to come out and silence them.
To avoid attracting other forces before they could open the secret treasure, but after a chase that lasted for hundreds of miles, they ultimately failed.
