Meanwhile, Lin Jinglong and Tianxiao were strolling leisurely in the dense forest, finding no trace of the Heavenly Dao Record.
They were the only group of people in the vicinity.
However, at this moment, Lin Jinglong was suddenly startled.
His gaze shifted to his back, where it seemed that twenty or thirty powerful figures had arrived, and their auras were completely different from those of the Heavenly Dragon Sect.
This made Lin Jinglong wary.
He became increasingly familiar with the aura of these upper-realm sects.
Among them, the Heavenly Dragon Sect and the Eternal Sect were the upper realm sects he had the most contact with. Because of the different cultivation methods they practiced and the different source powers they possessed, their temperaments were also completely different.
"It must be people from the Eternal Sect who have arrived."
Tianxiao also appeared beside Lin Jinglong.
He said solemnly, "Could it be that you've come to avenge Ye Changhen?"
Just as he was making this guess.
Ye Changxiao was the first to break out, and at the same time, more than a dozen of his servants from the Ye family surrounded him, although their numbers were still fewer than Lin Jinglong's.
Meanwhile, Qian Wu and his men from the Criminal Investigation Department also gathered there.
They surrounded Qian Wu.
Following Qian Wu's gaze, his eyes swept across the sky and landed on Lin Jinglong's face.
"Elder, is that the kid?"
"He's just a person from the lower realm, yet he managed to grasp the core of the Heavenly Dao and fully develop its power. Could he even share it with you?"
"Could it be that you're overthinking it?"
Qian Wu frowned as he listened to the speculations of his trusted subordinates.
“Be polite to Mr. Lin. He is our key. Lin Ye thinks he is the head of the main hall and has a chance to become the sect master of Tianlong Sect. But in reality, even if he becomes the sect master, he will only be a seventh-level sect master. In the end, he will be bound by the rules of Tianlong Sect.”
"As for us, as long as we keep improving our strength, we can hold high positions within the Eternal Sect and become high-ranking elders in the future, only then can we truly be free!"
"The Blood Slaughter Society is just an object I use."
Qian Wu gave Lin Jinglong a deep look, his eyes filled with greed. In fact, when he first heard through the intelligence from the main hall that someone had mastered the core of the Heavenly Dao in the lower realm, he was quite excited.
His idea was to just rob it.
However, as Xie Feiyan and Lin Jinglong's cooperation deepened...
He realized that his abilities were not enough to support his ambitions; he was, after all, just a cultivator at the early stage of the sixth rank.
Even risking one's life, one might not be able to defeat Lin Jinglong.
Moreover, it would disrupt the cooperation between the Blood Slaughter Society and the Elders' Council, and could even expose his identity within the Eternal Sect.
Therefore, he decided to come and curry favor with Lin Jinglong and seek cooperation with him, even going so far as to disobey Lin Ye's orders.
Qian Wu's trusted subordinates were well aware of his thoughts, but Ye Changxiao was unaware of them.
He glanced at Tianxiao and found that although he was only a third-level True Monarch, he did have the aura of the core of the Heavenly Dao. Apart from some low-level True Monarchs, there was nothing else about Tianxiao that was worth paying attention to.
He suddenly smiled, put his hands behind his back, and said, "Now that you see I've come, you should know why I'm here, so why don't you kneel down and beg for mercy?"
Seeing Ye Changxiao, a sixth-order Great Perfection cultivator, the others showed strange expressions. Tianxiao took the initiative to step forward and asked curiously, "Are you from the Eternal Sect? Don't you know this is our Heavenly Dragon Sect's territory? What are you doing here?"
"You killed my collateral relative, Ye Changhen!"
Ye Changxiao questioned Tianxiao.
Tianxiao's expression changed slightly. He subconsciously glanced at Lin Jinglong, thinking to himself, "So this blame has been shifted onto him too?"
Lin Jinglong glared at him.
This idiot actually dares to look at me!
This time it was Ye Changxiao who came. If a high-level True Monarch comes next time, and he looks at things this way, I will definitely be exposed.
Tianxiao was immediately covered in cold sweat.
He withdrew his gaze, momentarily at a loss for words, but instinctively said, "I don't know what you're talking about. We didn't kill Ye Changhen. How could I possibly have the ability to kill him!"
"I don't care about all that. I think you're the one who killed Ye Changhen. You're the prime suspect. Come with us to the Eternal Sect. If you really didn't kill him, you'll be released."
Although Ye Changxiao was arrogant, he was not a complete fool. He knew that this was the territory of the Tianlong Sect, and no matter how noble his status was, the Tianlong Sect would not recognize him.
If you try to make a move here, you might get trapped and die!
After all, Ye Changhen is dead, so Ye Changxiao is not incapable of dying either; the methods of the Heavenly Dragon Sect are ruthless enough.
So he decided to lure Tianxiao away first.
Especially when he saw the fluctuations of the Heavenly Dao core on Tianxiao's body, he became extremely greedy.
This is indeed a great achievement.
It's far more valuable than Ye Changhen!
Just as he pressed closer and closer, trying to pressure Tianxiao and lead his men to take action.
Suddenly, a sound reached Lin Jinglong's ears.
His gaze shifted to Qian Wu's face, and the other man nodded at him.
“Mr. Lin, I am also a member of the Blood Slaughter Hall, from the Eternal Sect’s Punishment Hall. This person is someone I brought here as a gift for you.”
Why would you give it to me?
Lin Jinglong felt completely bewildered.
Qian Wu smiled and said, "He is a direct descendant of the Ye family of the Eternal Sect. In the future, he may even have the opportunity to compete for the position of the Ye family head. Entering the seventh rank is a natural thing. If we can control him, wouldn't we also have a place in the Ye family?"
In Qian Wu's view, Ye Changxiao's status in the Eternal Sect was almost equivalent to Lin Ye's.
Although arrogant and foolish, it is indeed of great value.
But Lin Jinglong said helplessly, "Unfortunately, I can't control this kind of person. Since you brought him here, I have no choice but to kill him."
"I see."
Qian Wu was somewhat disappointed.
However, Lin Jinglong casually said, "But I see your sincerity. Do you perhaps also hope to cooperate with me in depth, like Xie Feiyan did?"
"That's exactly right!"
A glint of light appeared in Qian Wu's eyes.
Lin Jinglong was indeed a smart man. Dealing with smart people is the easiest thing to do. He was not afraid to expose his ambition, and he believed that Lin Jinglong could understand that.
Whether you want to accept it or not.
His status within the Eternal Sect is valuable!
Lin Jinglong agreed with his idea.
“Alright, the Heavenly Dao Core hasn’t been fully activated yet, but it’s enough to support your realm. If you’re willing to help me get rid of Ye Changxiao, I can naturally believe in your sincerity.”
"Very well, then I'll get started!"
Qian Wu exchanged a glance with the person next to him.
After each person confirmed the command.
Ye Changxiao walked towards the sky.
He grinned maliciously and said, "Kid, are you so scared you don't know what to say? I've only given you one way out, and that's to come back with me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a cold glint suddenly pierced his back, shattering his heart meridian instantly!
Ye Changxiao turned his head in disbelief.
Qian Wu looked at him expressionlessly.
His gaze was cold and sarcastic.
