Hearing Lin Dong's words, Que nodded slowly, "Yes, Master, don't worry!"
Just as he finished speaking, a subordinate walked in from outside and reported, "Master, someone wants to see you. They say there is news about Master Tiger."
“Oh!?” Lin Dong’s eyes lit up with joy. “Spread it!”
It was like someone brought a pillow just when he was sleepy. Lin Dong naturally didn't want to waste time.
When the person who reported walked into the hall, it was the old monkey with a pointed chin and monkey cheeks.
"You said there was news about Lord Tiger?" Lin Dong asked, his voice full of majesty.
With just one sentence, the old monkey knelt on the ground with a thud, his expression full of awe and piety, even a hint of worship. He had to perform well!
If this was really the reason why he clung to Lin Dong's thigh, then his status in Taiyuan City would naturally rise.
"Greetings, sir!" the old monkey bowed respectfully.
Lin Dong waved his hand and said, "No need to be so polite, let's get down to business."
"Yes! Yes!" the old monkey nodded in response, and then continued, "This is what happened. About half an hour ago, I discovered that the third brother had hidden valuables and wanted to trade them privately. This is against Tiger Lord's rules.
Then, I informed Tiger Master, and I took Tiger Master to find the third brother. Later, Tiger Master rewarded me with a few spirit stones and let me leave.
My guess is that the third brother and the boy who made a deal with him must have conspired to murder Tiger Master for the treasure.
The third brother is not a good person on a daily basis, and he has a lot of resentment towards Tiger Master. This must have been done by him and that kid.
If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have left. This...it's only been a short while, and I heard such tragic news."
As she spoke, her tone became tearful. Although she looked like that on the surface, she was actually beaming with joy in her heart.
If Tiger Master had not died and he happened to know about it, he would not have known when he would be able to meet Dong Master again, so how could he have gotten close to Dong Master?
Moreover, he could also take this opportunity to kill the third brother, whom he had always disliked, thus killing two birds with one stone!
"What's the cultivation level of the third brother you mentioned?" Lin Dong asked.
The old monkey quickly replied, "He's at the third level of the Heavenly Man Realm, so he should be. However... this person is very good at disguise, so I don't know if he is really good or not."
"What about the person he traded with?" Lin Dong asked.
The old monkey replied, "That kid seems to have just ascended, a young boy."
"Just ascended!?" Lin Dong's eyes were gloomy. "Then it seems that the one who killed Luo Hu is most likely this third brother. Perhaps he is hiding his strength."
This possibility is the greatest. It is normal to hide one's strength. People who have experienced the cruelty in the cultivation world will more or less hide their cards as much as possible.
The desired effect is to kill a strong enemy or someone as strong as yourself by surprise.
As for Qin Tian, he was actively ignored. After all, an ant that had just ascended would hardly hurt Luo Hu even if he attacked him unexpectedly, let alone kill him.
After confirming this, Que quickly said, "Master, don't worry, I'll go and catch the third brother right away."
Just as he was about to leave, a voice came into the hall.
"No need to look for it anymore. The person you are looking for has come by himself!" This was Qin Tian's voice.
Hearing this, Que was slightly stunned, while Lin Dong was furious. This person was clearly challenging his authority.
…
At the gate of the Lin Mansion, Qin Tian was stopped by the guard at the gate, "Get out, this is not a place for you to come."
The words were not polite at all, even arrogant, but this was totally normal.
Looking at Qin Tian's clothes and hair, they knew that he was probably someone who had just ascended to the heavenly realm. Not to mention the other strong men, even the two of them were stronger than Qin Tian. Moreover, the place they were guarding was the Lin Mansion, so naturally he spoke in a tough manner.
Not to mention Qin Tian, there are really not many people in the entire Taiyuan City who they dare not confront.
After all, whether they are beaten enough or not depends on the master. Beating them casually is like slapping Lin Dong in the face.
Let me ask you, who in the entire Taiyuan City dares to do that?
When Qin Tian heard what the two said, he sneered, and without saying anything, his divine power surged out and he lightly drew his sword.
Seeing that Qin Tian dared to attack, the two of them naturally drew their swords in an instant, trying to block the sword.
"You are looking for death by overestimating your own abilities!" one of the gatekeepers shouted coldly.
In his opinion, if Qin Tian dared to fight with them, it would be tantamount to committing suicide.
But when the swords clashed, the two men were horrified. They saw a sword that seemed so light and effortless, but it had such terrifying power.
"No... Impossible!" the two said with gritting their teeth.
Bang!
With a loud bang, the two men flew backwards, and the residual power of Qin Tian's sword shattered the gate of the Lin Mansion.
Such a big commotion naturally attracted attention. The Lin Mansion was located on the central street, where there was the most traffic, and it instantly attracted a crowd of onlookers.
Seeing this scene, everyone was talking about it.
"Who is this guy? Do you know where this is? How dare he act so wildly here? Is he crazy?"
"This is challenging my authority! Is this a rebellion? This guy must have something wrong with his head!"
"What kind of existence is Master Dong? He is the king of Taiyuan City! This kid, overestimating his own abilities, dares to challenge Master Dong. Let's see how he dies!"
"Look at his appearance, he seems to have just come from the underworld!"
"That's probably the case. He probably still thinks this place is the lower realm! He can't be...still thinking that he's invincible!"
"Haha~ Stop kidding, he's invincible! Wait till Dong Ye comes out and crush him to death with just one finger!"
"It's ridiculous, it's really ridiculous!"
…
Everyone was discussing this, and at this moment, hundreds of guards rushed out of the Lin Mansion to confront Qin Tian. As for Lin Dong and Que, they also came out.
The old monkey looked at Qin Tian and said quickly, "He... he is the one who made the deal with the third brother. He just ascended from the lower realm!"
Lin Dong and Que were both stunned. They looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
He had just ascended, and his appearance did resemble that of a bird, but his cultivation level was definitely not that of a bird.
Lin Dong carefully sensed Qin Tian's cultivation, but still found nothing and could not sense Qin Tian's realm.
This made Lin Dong even more surprised, and then Lin Dong asked, "Were you the one who just used Concentration to transmit the sound?"
"That's right!" Qin Tian replied.
Hearing this, Lin Dong frowned, "Then...it was you who killed Luo Hu!?"
Qin Tian still replied calmly, "Yes!"
"Well, you are quite courageous. You killed my brother and even dared to destroy the gate of my house. What? Are you planning to kill me too and wipe out the roots?" Lin Dong questioned.
After hearing Lin Dong's words, Qin Tian hadn't responded yet, but everyone's faces changed in an uproar.
What...did they hear!?
Qin Tian killed Luo Hu? Lord Hu!?
No... this is absolutely impossible. How could a kid who just ascended from the lower realm kill Lord Tiger?
