Chapter 601: Battle of Wisdom and Courage
If Yuan Zihe hadn't said it, Lin Yun would have almost forgotten about the Battle of the Four Kings.
You mean the War of the Four Kings?
Isn’t that a civil war among my wives?
As for the addition of Yuan Zidan among the four kings, won’t three be able to defeat one?
Not to mention that Lin Yun also possesses the magical weapon that can restrain Yuan Zidan, so he doesn't need to worry too much about Yuan Zidan.
He's just a little sea king. Just let him jump around in the sea. If he dares to come ashore, we'll catch him.
Of course, Lin Yun only felt that Yuan Zidan didn't need to worry too much considering the overall situation, but it didn't mean that Lin Yun would underestimate this opponent.
When it is time to deal with him, Lin Yun will not show mercy. Now, after hearing Yuan Zihe's information, he is also taking it seriously.
But kidnapping someone else's sister is still not appropriate.
"Don't let the disaster affect my family. I have my own ways to deal with Yuan Zidan. There's no need to attack her sister. Besides, your secret is not worth it for me to take action for you. But it's not surprising that you know this secret. Why did you tell me this secret?"
Lin Yun was cautious and suspicious by nature, and now seeing Yuan Zihe reveal such a targeted secret, it would be strange if he didn't suspect her.
Yuan Zihe felt a chill in her heart. She had long guessed that Lin Yun should be a careful and cautious person, but she didn't expect Lin Yun to be so suspicious.
But she also had a countermeasure, and said calmly: "If I'm not mistaken, you are Lin Yun, right?"
As the saying goes, fortune and honor are achieved through risk. Yuan Zihe has reached the point where she must take risks. If she does not shock Lin Yun enough, she will not be able to get close to him at all.
Since it is impossible to gain Lin Yun's trust normally given his personality, he should first make him suspicious and then gain his trust. This trust will become more solid.
As Yuan Zihe expected, Lin Yun's eyes became much sharper when he heard her say her name.
But Yuan Zihe was lucky. The Lin Yun she met now was more patient. He had experienced the baptism of the soul by guarding the state of mind and was not as moody as before. Otherwise, when Yuan Zihe said this, he would have killed her with a knife, and Yuan Zihe would have had no place to complain.
It's not wrong to kill him anyway.
Now Lin Yun still gave her a chance to speak, but the two dragons were behind Lin Yun, one on the left and one on the right, also putting pressure on Yuan Zihe.
Under such heavy pressure, even though Yuan Zihe was determined, he couldn't help but tremble.
She felt like she was sailing on the sea in a lone boat in a strong wind. If she was not careful, she would be overturned by the waves and die without a burial place.
The more this happened, the more determined her eyes became.
Seeing that she was able to keep her composure under such an impact, Lin Yun couldn't help but admire her.
Before Yuan Zihe was overwhelmed, he slowly said, "How do you know who I am?"
As Lin Yun spoke, the aura that was about to overwhelm Yuan Zihe disappeared without a trace. Yuan Zihe felt a lightness in his body, and then he realized that he was soaked.
However, no matter how embarrassed she was, she won this battle of wits!
"You have two dragons accompanying you, so you must not be an ordinary person. Among all the people I have heard of, only you have such an extraordinary temperament. You can make the Saint of Guanghan Palace fall in love with you and the Goddess of Snow Mountain fall in love with you. Only a man as charming and outstanding as you can do it."
Yuan Zihe was so good at flattering Lin Yun that he didn't even have the urge to kill her.
Well, even though this girl recognized me, I can’t blame her. It’s all because I’m too handsome and have such a good temperament. This girl is not stupid, so she can see that it’s normal.
"Then how do you know that I will deal with Yuan Zidan?"
"Because I overheard that he plans to send a beautiful woman to seduce you and steal your magical artifacts Dinghai Shenzhu and Shanhaijing."
seaweed:"……"
Awesome, you not only sold yourself, but also your brother!
This is a truly ruthless person. In order to gain Lin Yun's trust, he is really willing to spend a lot of money.
Yuan Zihe did not say this out of thin air, but rather he had considered it long ago.
It would be too far for Feng Wu to succeed. Lin Yun is so cautious and suspicious, and he is so handsome. How can he seduce someone with just Feng Wu?
My stupid brother is still thinking too much. It would be better for him to betray her and increase his credibility in Lin Yun's heart.
Anyway, Yuan Zidan just wanted the Dinghai Shenzhen Pearl and the Classic of Mountains and Seas. It didn’t matter who stole them.
As soon as Lin Yun heard it, he knew that Yuan Zihe's information was true. His Dinghai Shenzhen Pearl was given to Dongfang Hongyue, and not many people knew this.
It is reasonable for Yuan Zidan to think that the artifact is still in his hands.
To be honest, even if Yuan Zihe hadn't told him the news, Lin Yun wasn't afraid that Yuan Zidan would keep thinking about it. The Dinghai Shenzhen Pearl was in Dongfang Hongyue's hands. With Dongfang Hongyue's combat power and the things that could restrain Yuan Zidan's abilities, Yuan Zidan would be sending himself to death if he went to Dongfang Hongyue.
As for coming to him to snatch the Classic of Mountains and Seas?
If Bai Jiaojiao didn't refuse to eat people, then he would have come here to deliver takeaway.
However, not being afraid of Yuan Zidan does not prevent Lin Yun from understanding his methods.
"Which beauty is he going to send to seduce me?"
Lin Yun was still a little bit expectant, as this was his first time encountering a beauty trap!
"I overheard this news when I was hiding in a brothel. The woman's name is Feng Wu, and she is the top prostitute in the brothel."
With a "pop", the fish in Lin Yun's hand fell to the ground.
Yuan Zihe was stunned. You weren’t afraid when I told you your name just now, so why are you so scared that the fish are falling now?
Lin Yun picked up the fish silently.
He was surprised by the name Fengwu.
Is the world so small?
You were looking for someone to seduce me, and you found my subordinate?
Lin Yun couldn't help but light a candle for Yuan Zidan. The funniest thing about him was that his plan was exposed before it was even implemented.
Are you still doing espionage work?
Lin Yun thought he was probably here to make people laugh.
After picking up the fish, Lin Yun touched it again to comfort the fish.
These two pieces of news did not mean much to Lin Yun, because Feng Wu was his and would definitely tell him when the time came.
But he had already promised Yuan Zihe to help her, and now that her innocence has been almost confirmed, Lin Yun decided to fulfill his promise.
"You can tell me what you want me to do now."
Lin Yun touched the fish calmly. Yuan Zihe had said before that she was separated from her family. Lin Yun guessed that the biggest possibility was to help her find her family!
This is not difficult for him, and he can also ride Bai Jiaojiao out for a stroll.
"I would like to ask you to send me to Ziyun Mountain to become your disciple."
Lin Yun: “…”
Ziyun Mountain, isn’t that the Shenxiao Sect?
What does this guy want to do?
"Ziyun Mountain is not too far from here, and it's already within this area. You can go there by yourself. Why do you have to let me take you there?"
Lin Yun's eyes turned sharp again when he looked at Yuan Zihe. If she really had plans for Ziyun Mountain, Lin Yun wouldn't mind sending her off.
Feeling the murderous intent vaguely revealed in Lin Yun's eyes, Yuan Zihe felt a chill in her heart. This person was too suspicious. She thought that she had contributed so much information that was enough to gain Lin Yun's trust, but as soon as she mentioned the Shenxiao Sect, she aroused Lin Yun's suspicion.
Fortunately, she also prepared enough reasons to support her behavior.
"The Shenxiao Sect of Ziyun Mountain is now the most powerful sect in the Central Plains. If I go there alone, I'm afraid they won't accept me as a disciple. But if you take me there, I might have a better chance of joining the Shenxiao Sect."
"I heard that you were separated from your family. I thought you would let me go find your family."
Lin Yun narrowed his eyes, and although he still had a smile on his face, Yuan Zihe felt that this question was even more sinister than when she called out Lin Yun's name before.
"Some of my family members have already died, and there is no point in me looking for those who are still alive. Only by practicing hard can I have the possibility of revenge."
Yuan Zihe silently added in his heart: I treat all my sea beasts as family members.
Just now, two of them were brutally killed by Lin Yun.
So this is not a lie.
As for the fact that her current demands were different from what she had said to Qing Snake before, that was not a problem. After all, this was the first time she and Qing Snake had met, and not telling the truth was in line with her mentality as a refugee.
Lin Yun looked at Yuan Zihe. Yuan Zihe's eyes were clear, yet still a little flustered as she greeted Lin Yun's scrutiny.
"You are brave and resourceful, but I am a traitor to the Shenxiao Sect. Sending you to Ziyun Mountain will only have the opposite effect. You expect me to introduce you to the sect, but that is impossible."
Lin Yun had no intention of exposing his relationship with the Shenxiao Sect just for Yuan Zihe.
Yuan Zihe was delighted. Although Lin Yun did not agree, he should not doubt her anymore. Not only did he gain her trust, but he also praised her for her bravery!
This is positive feedback. It's just a matter of time before he falls in love with me!
"Please change your request. Except for the Shenxiao Sect, other sects are easy to join. But your desire to become stronger through practice to avenge yourself is probably a bit unrealistic. Now that the Central Plains is at war, if you join a sect, you will have to fight for it.
It seems that you should have some cultivation level. Maybe you have just joined the sect, learned some basic skills, and are about to go out to fight.
Instead of pursuing the secrets of divine skills, why don’t you find a place with abundant spiritual energy to practice in seclusion, and then come out when the time is right.”
The advice Lin Yun gave was also based on Yuan Zihe's specific situation. He was almost telling her to just give up.
Yuan Zidan may be the weakest among the four kings, but it should not be difficult for him to defeat an ordinary strong man in the Fate Knowing Realm. And it is unlikely that He Caiwei can seek revenge by relying on her own practice.
How many people practice for their entire lives only to reach the realm of knowing destiny? Without extraordinary talent and luck, how could they possibly be a match for one of the four kings who is destined to be theirs?
Therefore, finding a place to practice is actually a very good option. Maybe as soon as you come out, you will find that Yuan Zidan has been taken care of by someone.
The battle of the four kings will not last too long. Although the situation of the four kings competing against each other has not yet formed, this is because there is no news from the flower fairy. Once the flower fairy unifies the demon clan and Lin Yu unifies the Central Plains, the situation of the four kings competing against each other will be completely completed.
If Yuan Zidan is eager to compete for the world's top spot at that time, he will probably find that what he thought was an individual competition is actually a team competition, but he is miserable because he is on one team and the other three are on another team.
Yuan Zihe looked at Lin Yun with a touched expression. She grabbed the edge of her skirt with both hands, as if she was making a very difficult choice. Finally, she spoke out.
"Then can I take you as my teacher?"
Lin Yun's scalp tingled when he heard the word "apprentice".
Being a master nowadays is a high-risk profession. He has had three masters, and now two of them have been killed by him... ahem.
There is also a girl named Bilian who ran away and has not returned yet and cannot be contacted.
Bilian, he is probably dead!
"I am not very talented and well-educated, so it is difficult for me to train others. I am not interested in taking in any disciples right now. If you are determined to learn skills, I can help you find someone."
Lin Yun planned to leave her to someone else to take care of. Anyway, he would not accept a disciple, not in this life.
Most of the independent cultivators in this world are not very capable, so if you really want to learn skills, you have to go to famous sects. However, the death rate in famous sects is a bit high now, so independent cultivators and some small sects are becoming active again.
Lin Yun didn’t know any powerful independent cultivators, but Hu Yuling happened to be disguised as an independent cultivator.
For Hu Yuling, hiding her real name and changing her alias is just basic operation.
Ordinary people would not be able to tell that she is a demon, so throwing Yuan Zihe next to Hu Yuling would be a good opportunity to observe her carefully to see if there is anything wrong with her.
Yuan Zihe felt a little regretful that she couldn't become Lin Yun's apprentice, but she didn't dare to ask for more. If she could be introduced, she would have the opportunity to contact Lin Yun again.
Anyway, let's stop here for today. If you continue to insist, you may end up making things worse.
Yuan Zihe pretended to be grateful and said, "Thank you, sir. If I succeed in my cultivation in the future, I will definitely reward you handsomely."
"There's no need to thank me. We just took what we needed. Let's rest here tonight. We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
Yuan Zihe nodded quickly and said politely, "Mr. Lin, your house just burned down. If you don't mind, how about living in the thatched cottage I just built?"
"No, go and rest. I still need to interrogate the fish."
As he spoke, Lin Yun touched Long Xiaoman in his arms again.
Long Xiaoman hadn't dared to say anything just now, but she didn't expect that Lin Yun still wouldn't let her go.
Yuan Zihe retreated sensibly. When she walked back, she saw the dying seaweed lying on the pebbles.
That kick just now hurt so much.
I feel sorry for my Cao Cao.
But it doesn't matter, your sacrifice is worth it, come back!
When Yuan Zihe walked past the seaweed, she wanted to slow down and let the seaweed wrap around her legs so that she could take the seaweed back quietly.
Who cares if there's a weed stuck on your skirt?
However, just as she raised her foot, Bai Jiaojiao's voice came from behind her.
"Wait a minute."
Yuan Zihe was startled, thinking there would be more twists and turns. This was the time when she was most relaxed. She suddenly tensed her mind, subconsciously lowered her legs, and stepped on the seaweed again.
With a "smack", a pool of green juice splashed out.
Seaweed: I have never been injured so badly in my life...
