King

Lin Yan bid farewell to Mei Jiangxue, and seeing that it was getting late, he thought that if he wanted to rush back to Liuxi Village before dark, and tell the villagers about Cao Sanshui's abandonment of the brick kiln factory to build an orchard, he had to take a shortcut.

Fortunately, Lin Yan had traveled back and forth between Xiaoshui City and Qingyang Town enough times before, so he knew that there happened to be a mountain road that could shorten the distance by nearly one-third. After reaching the eighth level of the Xiantian Realm, I am not afraid.

After bypassing the bustling streets, Lin Yan left the city from the back street and started to enter the mountain along a dirt road.

The mountain road is very narrow, stepped by woodcutters and hunters, with shrubs growing on both sides, winding all the way to Liuxi Mountain. After turning over Liuxi Mountain, you will go down the mountain to Liuxi Village.

Lin Yan ran almost all the way, and met several wild dogs and wolves along the way. After being scared away easily, after half an hour, he finally reached the foot of Liuxi Mountain.

Liuxi Mountain is very wide, like a crouching dragon, with continuous ups and downs, and at the foot of the mountain, there is a large flat mountain. At the moment when the sun is setting, the sunset glow appears in the sky, and the mountain is illuminated into orange red.

However, with such a beautiful scenery, Lin Yan felt uncomfortable for a while, because the smell of blood came from the breeze!

A sika deer that apparently just died was lying on the mountain 20 meters away. Beside the body of the sika deer stood a young man in a white plain shirt about his age.

The meat of the sika deer was torn vigorously by a row of sharp teeth, bringing out large strings of blood beads, which were sent into a bloody mouth.

A large, ugly lizard was half-squatting, lying on the ground with stubby limbs, eating frantically.

The sika deer has just died, the blood is warm and the meat is fresh and tender, which suits the lizard's appetite.

However, Lin Yan knew that this reptile with blue scales, eight meters long, and a long tail like a hill was actually a violent beast named Xunlong.

Dragons are very mysterious but extremely powerful super species in the martial arts world. They have their own places to live, and generally do not appear in cities where humans live in the martial arts world, but this only refers to real dragons.

More spirit beasts and fierce beasts called "dragons" come from the collateral line of dragons, and actually belong to the subspecies of dragons.In fact, except for the "dragon" in the name, they are already thousands of miles away from real dragons.

The Velociraptor in front of it, if people don't know its name, people will only see it as a large lizard.

But even so, Xunlong's strength is far superior to ordinary beasts such as tigers and lions. After adulthood, Xunlong generally has the strength above the third level of the mortal realm!

This kind of strength was used as a mount by the young man next to him. It is conceivable that the strength and background of that white-clothed man is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary warriors.

Moreover, it seems that the Xunlong in the martial arts world all come from the same place.

A place called Tiandi City.

After recognizing Xunlong, Lin Yan became puzzled.

Because Tiandi City has always been in a detached position, it will not easily send people out of the city to contact outsiders, but now, there is a powerful young man who rode a fast dragon and traveled thousands of miles to Xiaoshui City, the southernmost city in the martial world. .

"Hey, do you know where the Qingwu Gate in Xiaoshui City is?"

At this moment, the somewhat vague white figure made a sound, and handed over an unpleasant question from a distance.Immediately, the white figure moved suddenly, with a flexible and light body, tapped several times on the grass, and stood beside Lin Yan.

"I want to ask you something, is this Xiaoshui City?" The young man thought that Lin Yan hadn't heard his question just now, so he asked again.

This is a young man who can be said to have no characteristics at all, with a combination of facial features and a fairly tall and vigorous body, but it is difficult for others to associate words such as "suave" or "heroic" with him.

Only when the young man spoke, would the arrogance deeply embedded in his bones be revealed, and accompanied by this arrogance, there was also a fierce temperament.

Master, absolute master!

Facing this person, any knowledgeable martial artist would subconsciously make this judgment.

And Lin Yan already understood the terrifying strength of the opponent from the fact that Xunlong was this person's mount.

But when the other party landed next to him with a few light leaps, Lin Yan's heart still couldn't stop shaking!

Seeing the other party's appearance, and the small maroon token hanging from the hem of the white gown, his heart trembled violently!

But Lin Yan managed to control his emotions very quickly, with a calm face, he replied: "It's Xiaoshui City. You came from a long distance, lost?"

Lin Yan followed the other party's wishes and prepared to make a cliché.

"get lost?"

The young man seemed to be very amused by this word, but he still patiently pointed to Xunlong who was eating venison not far away and explained: "That guy is suitable for walking in the mountains and forests, and I didn't want to attract attention, so I went all the way to Here. Since this is Xiaoshui City, and you are also a warrior, you must have heard of Qingwumen, right?"

"Why are you looking for Qingwumen?" Lin Yan asked cautiously.

"You just need to tell me how to get to Qingwumen, don't ask me anything else."

The young man was a little disgusted, if it wasn't for the fact that he was in the wilderness and only met such a person who could ask for directions, he wouldn't be bothered to waste time with the other party.

"It seems that you don't look like a bad person. I am an outer disciple of the Qingwu Sect. Naturally, no one is allowed to try to harm the sect."

The "new identity" that Lin Yan found for himself clearly explained why he was a warrior, and also explained why he was vigilantly asking questions just now.

Only then did the young man suddenly realize, and said with a smile: "It turns out that you are from the Qingwu Sect, no wonder." In his words, he did not take Lin Yan's identity as an outer disciple of the Qingwu Sect into his eyes at all.

Knowing that it is impossible to know the other party's true intention of coming to Xiaoshui City to find Qingwumen, Lin Yan decided to end this sudden meeting.

"Did you see it? Go straight ahead on this mountain road from here, and you will see a lake. There is only one road around the lake. Follow that road and you will soon reach the market. It will be convenient to inquire when you get there. Qing Wumen is not far from the market."

"Thanks."

The young man turned and left expressionlessly.

"By the way, Qingwumen is really the biggest faction in Xiaoshui City?" When leaving, the young man turned his head and asked.

"Of course, our Qingwumen has stood in the martial arts world for a hundred years, so we are naturally the number one faction in Xiaoshui City." Lin Yan praised Qingwumen, which he had no connection with, to the sky.

"Well, that's right, there are outer disciples even in such a remote place." The young man smiled and left.

As we all know, the bigger the sect, the higher the standards for selecting disciples. At the same time, the big sect also pays more attention to face.In the great sect, even the disciples of the outer sect will not be so shabby as to be dressed like a countryman, and the words of the young people are just mocking.

Soon, the proud young man completely forgot about this "outer disciple" and only remembered the route to Qingwumen in his mind.

"This Qingwu Sect doesn't seem to be much stronger. I really don't understand why the patriarch sent me to Qingwu Sect to inform about that matter, and also asked me to discuss with my peers from this sect. I hope that Qingwu Sect It’s good to have one or two decent opponents.”

The young man muttered, sat on Xunlong's back, and quickly disappeared into the mountains.

Lin Yan glanced at the fragmented deer carcass not far away, but his thoughts were overwhelming!

Tiandi City is located in the northern part of Wujie. Unlike other cities, there is no official government in Tiandi City, and the city is governed by several big families in the city.

There are naturally conflicts and strife among the aristocratic families, but externally, they have always been surprisingly consistent: other cities are not allowed to interfere and enter Tiandi City casually. connect.

Not allowing interference is because the big families want to protect their interests, and they never look directly at other cities, because the strength of Tiandi City itself is strong enough, so strong that even if other forces in the martial arts world are united, they will not take it seriously. The point of fear!

Fortunately, for some reason, Tiandi City itself will not annex other cities. In name, it is still one of the hundred cities in the martial arts world, but in fact, it has always been a giant, one stepping on the shoulders of other cities. on the giant.

With absolute force at hand, Heavenly Emperor City has become a sacred place in the minds of warriors.But it is such a holy place that rarely has relations with external forces, how can it send people to Qingwumen now?

What's even more coincidental is that the person sent was actually from the Lin Family of Heavenly Emperor City!

This person may have forgotten Lin Yan, but Lin Yan recognized this person. It was Lin Zhilan, his cousin!

"Hmph, probably the Lin family thought I was dead, and died in the hunt ten years ago." Lin Yan said coldly, exuding an extreme coldness from his body.

Even his cousin Lin Zhilan, whom he had known since childhood, forgot about him, so who would remember his true identity that day?

I remember that I used to be the young master of the Lin family, one of the dignified families in Tiandi City!

Ten years ago, dozens of masters from several major families in Tiandi City died mysteriously on the snowy plateau. However, after a ridiculous investigation, the heads of several major families suddenly insisted that their mother was the murderer, who caused the murder of Tiandi City. The "culprit" of the turmoil!

What I couldn't figure out when I was seven years old at that time was that his father, the head of the Lin family, actually acquiesced in this matter, and sent out masters to strangle his mother that night, even himself!

The mother, with her loyal Steward Xin, fought all the way to break through the blockade of the family's masters, which caused the bloody night of the Lin family. Immediately, in order to protect herself and Steward Xin, the mother escaped from the Tiandi City and confronted each other with a sword alone. Chasing soldiers, lost news.

And I escaped only after Steward Xin paid the price with his life and killed a hundred cold-blooded cavalry who came after him with difficulty!

One hundred cold-blooded cavalrymen belonged to the Lin family and only obeyed the orders of the head of the Lin family. There is no doubt that his father had ordered him to be killed during that bloody night!

The Lin family is the Lin family that gave birth to him and raised him, the Lin family that all the servants in the Lin Mansion respectfully call him "Young Master", but it is also the Lin family that sent people to chase him and his mother ten years ago during the bloody night!

The person who gave the order to kill was his former father!

It's just that this father is only what he used to be!

After the bloody night of the Lin family, he told himself in his heart that he had no father, only a mother who disappeared!
