Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 307 Chapter [-] Assassination
Take Huang Ling back to his room.

Lin Ji asked her to sit down and poured another cup of tea in front of her.

Seeing that Huang Ling was still trembling and fearful, he comforted, "Don't panic, with me here, those people dare not do anything to you."

"Thank you...big...brother." Huang Ling was a little at a loss.

"My surname is Lin."

"Brother Lin."

"En." Lin Ji responded casually, and after seeing that Huang Ling had indeed relaxed a bit, he asked, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

Huang Ling looked up at Lin Ji cautiously, and said in a low voice, "What does Brother Lin want to know?"

Lin Ji thought for a while and asked, "What's the matter with the prisoner next door who is being guarded by the editorial department?"

"That's Lord Shen Hong, the magistrate of Yangzhou."

Lin Ji already knew this, but he was not in a hurry, but asked again: "What did he do?"

"Master Shen was framed by treacherous ministers! Brother Lin, if you go to Yangzhou now, you will know that the common people are crying for Master Shen."

Lin Ji was unmoved.

The ideas of the people in this world are the least valuable and meaningless.

"Be more specific..."

Huang Cui couldn't tell why.

She faltered and said, "I don't know too well, but my two senior brothers said that Mr. Shen was wronged, and we have to seek justice."

"Brother? Those two are also from the Huang family in Weizhou?"

"That's not true." Huang Ling shook her head and said, "The children of our family will come out to practice and join some sects."

Speaking of this, Huang Ling suddenly remembered that she still had a senior brother in the hands of the editing department.

"Brother Lin, my senior brother."

Before she could finish speaking, Lin Ji waved his hands directly and said, "I saved you because Huang Cui and I know each other well, don't push yourself too far."

"But my senior brother also ended up like this for the sake of justice."

Lin Ji smiled helplessly.

"So what? You can't even explain the cause and effect clearly, and justice is not just what you think. Besides, there are thousands of injustices in this world. How can I control one when I see it?"

"But."

Lin Ji didn't want to listen to her nonsense anymore, so he interrupted directly: "You didn't suffer any injuries, so just leave if you have nothing else to do."

Seeing Lin Ji got up and opened the door of the room, Huang Ling's complexion changed several times, and finally got up.

Originally she thought that Lin Ji would help her, but there is no difference between saving one and saving two.

But Lin Ji's indifference made her despair.

But she still has a bit of self-esteem after all, seeing Lin Ji seeing off guests, she can only get up.

Just as she walked out of the door, Huang Ling stopped in her tracks again.

"Many people along the way wanted Mr. Shen to die."

"What do you mean?" Lin Ji was stunned.

Huang Ling was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice: "My senior brother said that the people above wanted Mr. Shen to die, but they couldn't simply die. Brother Lin, you should be able to understand what this means. If you don't rescue him in time, I'm afraid."

Huang Ling didn't continue talking, she gave a slight salute, and then quickly left the inn without a trace.

It's just that these words left Lin Ji with some thoughts.

Originally, Lin Ji planned to leave during the day, but Tongtian Town is only a few dozen miles away from the capital.

But Huang Ling's words made him a little curious, so he didn't rush to go to the capital, but stayed in the inn instead.

If it was before, Lin Ji would hide as far away as possible, not to mention watching the excitement, and he didn't even have the intention to inquire.

But now he is already a monk in the day tour, looking at Kyushu, he can be regarded as the top group of people.

If the daily travel environment is not worthy of watching the excitement, then he is still practicing.

"It's always about having some fun." Lin Ji thought to himself.

At night, everything is silent.

Lin Ji probed out his divine sense early on, covering the entire inn.

After a while, there was a sound of gongs and drums beating outside the inn.

The sound of gongs and drums seemed to be some kind of signal.

Not long after the sound sounded, Lin Ji suddenly noticed several figures approaching the inn from a distance.

Lin Ji didn't bother to hide it, he opened the window directly in the dark, and looked at those murderous guys.

Those were three men in black, whose faces were covered.

Lin Ji obviously underestimated the strength of these people. Just as Lin Ji looked at them curiously, they also discovered Lin Ji.

"Huh? Third, go and kill that man."

"understood."

Soon, a man in black came straight to Lin Ji, and the other two broke into the inn.

Seeing that he caused a commotion just by watching the excitement, Lin Ji became more and more curious.

The moment the man in black approached him, Lin Ji just reached out his hand casually, and the long knife landed in the empty space inexplicably, and he also grabbed the man in black by the neck.

"Fourth Realm? With this level of cultivation, you still want to be a killer?" Lin Ji frowned, and took off the mask of the man in black.

This man looked to be in his forties, and his face was full of flesh, but at this time his fierce face was full of panic and helplessness.

Lin Ji asked directly: "Are you here to kill Shen Hong?"

Hearing Lin Ji's direct question, the man in black's expression changed immediately.

He didn't know that Lin Ji also knew only half of it, and such questioning was purely defrauding him.

"You don't want to keep faith! We agreed to kill Shen Hong and settle the matter, and then why did you capture me? Why, is it possible to be black and white?"

Lin Ji sneered and said, "So what?"

"This..." the man in black was speechless.

At the same time, there was also the sound of fighting outside the room.

Lin Ji didn't hesitate anymore, directly broke the neck of the man in black, and then walked out of the room.

In the lobby on the first floor, Fu An led a group of men and besieged a man in black.

The man in black actually has the fifth level of cultivation, comparable to Fu'an.

Therefore, at this time, he was almost fighting Fu'an, and the rest of the editorial department's officers were just raiding.

Lin Ji just glanced at it and stopped paying attention to the following, and walked quickly to the outside of the room where Shen Hong was being held.

When he pushed open the door of the room, he happened to see another man in black brandishing a long sword and heading straight for Shen Hong's heart.

"Slow down." Lin Ji said suddenly.

The man in black was taken aback, but Jian Feng continued unabated.

Unfortunately, in front of Lin Ji, the speed of the long sword was far from fast.

With one step, he had already arrived in front of Shen Hong, and he directly reached out and grabbed the sword edge that was sent in front of him.

The sharp blade could not even break through his palm.

"Bold gangster! This is a felon of the imperial court. Even if he wants to die, it's not your turn to kill him!"

Lin Ji kicked the man in black hard, and the man in black flew upside down and crashed into two walls before he could barely stop. It seemed that he would not live long.

Lin Ji's voice also startled everyone downstairs.

But it doesn't matter whether they are alarmed or not, because Lin Ji has already come downstairs after confirming that there is no threat around him.
