Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 352 The rumor was heard by the sect leader
"It turns out that leaving... is so easy..."

Yu Linglong stood on the broad back of the giant snake. The sea breeze rustled and ruffled her hair, but she was completely unaware and fell into a deep trance.

She carries a heavy burden on her shoulders.

Those who raised her are the most important people in her life.

They were willing to give up the improvement of their own martial arts and teach her martial arts day after day without complaint. Every bit of internal strength they injected was filled with endless expectations and care.

In their eyes, Yu Linglong is like their own flesh and blood, and they are even willing to devote everything to her without reservation. In order to help her ascend to a high position, they are willing to do anything, even at the cost of their lives.

However, it was these people who loved her deeply who confined her life to this isolated island.

If she relies on herself alone, she may not be able to muster up the courage to take this crucial step in her entire life.

But at this moment, she had a perfect excuse - it was Liang Jin who forcibly took her away from here, not her own choice to leave.

This excuse, like a perfect placebo, alleviated her guilt and allowed her to feel a little relieved.

"It turns out... all it takes is an excuse and a strong external force."

Yu Linglong was filled with emotion, and the sound was like a sigh in the whistling sea breeze, disappearing into thin air in an instant.

At first, when Hualong Island was still visible, Yu Linglong's self-blame and guilt were like a tide, beating against her heart wave after wave.

But as the giant snake continued to move forward, the outline of Hualong Island gradually became blurred on the sea level, and finally disappeared completely from sight and could no longer be found.

In an instant, another completely different emotion, like a surging undercurrent, quickly filled her heart.

It was the uneasiness and fear of facing the unknown, like an invisible net that tightly enveloped her.

She has never set foot on the mainland in her life.

Although she read widely and gained countless knowledge about the outside world from books, and also heard many people's vivid descriptions of the continent, she had a rough idea of ​​what the outside world looked like in her mind.

But when she really had to face all this, her heart was still filled with fear. This emotion was like a vine, tightly wrapped around her, causing her delicate body to tremble slightly.

at this time.

A coat with body temperature was gently draped over her shoulders.

"Master, the sea breeze is very strong, be careful not to catch a cold."

Liang Jin's voice came steadily in the wind.

He naturally understood that with Yu Linglong's profound internal strength, the mere sea breeze could not have any effect on her at all.

At this moment, the internal force around Yu Linglong was like an invisible shield, blocking out the surging waves and howling winds.

He knew very well that Yu Linglong's trembling at this moment came from the excitement and anxiety deep in her heart.

He did this just to please his leader in a way that was just right.

Yu Linglong threw the coat back to Liang Jin in disgust.

Liang Jin didn't care about this, because in his eyes, this was the perfect opportunity to start a conversation:

"Master, the speed of this dragon is truly astonishing. It would take two days to reach Bibo City by boat, but riding this dragon, I estimate we can arrive in an hour."

"We must return to Hualong Island before the hour of Mao. This means we can stay in Bibo City for a full three hours!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong subconsciously straightened her body and said in a deep voice:

"It's all your fault! You made me look like a thief."

"Why would I go to Bibo City for no reason?"

"You must not let anyone else know that you are holding me hostage. Otherwise, holding the sect leader hostage is a serious crime, and then even I won't be able to protect you."

Liang Jin smiled secretly in his heart, but nodded repeatedly with a submissive look on his face.

Then he began to talk incessantly about what he saw and heard in Bi Bo City.

Although he stayed in Bi Bo City for a very short time and his knowledge of the city was very limited, even he himself found his narration boring.

But Yu Linglong listened with great interest, her focused eyes full of curiosity and desire for the unknown.

Time slowly passed as we talked back and forth like this.

The bright moon hangs high in the sky, casting a cool light.

The stars twinkle like gems inlaid in the inky black sky.

The inky black sea surface is like a huge piece of silk, shimmering in the moonlight.

The giant snake was like a fearless warship, splitting the surging waves and carrying the two of them through the wind and waves, moving forward rapidly.

The giant snake's physical strength is amazing. It has been running all the way here without stopping, as if it doesn't know what fatigue is.

Every time it swings its tail, it can stir up a large splash of water, and the majestic momentum is awe-inspiring.

suddenly.

Yu Linglong suddenly stood up from the giant snake's back, her eyes flashing with excitement. She pointed her finger at the distance and shouted in surprise:
"The lights of thousands of families... That must be the lights of thousands of families! Right?"

Hearing the sound, Liang Jin turned his head and looked into the distance.

In the endless darkness, it seemed as if countless stars had fallen to the earth. Those were the dense lights of the Bi Bo City.

Bi Bo City is located at the throat of the sea trade. Merchant ships from all over the country and even from various countries gather here like tired birds returning to their nests.

This unique geographical location makes Bi Bo City extremely prosperous. Even at night, there are still merchant ships busy loading and unloading goods at the docks. The lights are bright and the place is bustling.

In a sense, Bi Bo City has long become a city that never sleeps.

Fortunately, the night in Bibo City is so charming.

If it were an ordinary city, it would fall into dead silence after nightfall, with no lights and only the occasional crowing of chickens and barking of dogs. It would be no fun at all.

"Land! That's land, isn't it?"

“There’s really no end in sight!”

Yu Linglong no longer cared about her dignity as the sect leader. She pointed into the distance and kept shouting loudly, her voice full of uncontrollable excitement and excitement.

Among the countless twinkling lights, you can vaguely see a large gloomy outline, which is the vast and thick land.

Liang Jin turned his gaze to Yu Linglong.

At this moment, her face was flushed with excitement, like a ripe apple. She stamped her feet excitedly from time to time, as if she was about to jump up and down at any moment.

This scene made Liang Jin shake his head secretly.

Putting aside Yu Linglong's identity, just looking at her appearance, she is just a girl of about nineteen years old.

It is really pitiful that such a beautiful youth is imprisoned on an isolated island for a long time.

"Master, we are about to go ashore. Please use my clothes to cover your face."

"Bibo City is full of people from the Hualong Gate. Don't let anyone recognize you."

Liang Jin reminded.

As the leader of the Hualong Sect, Yu Linglong has been seen by many of the Hualong Sect's disciples in Bibo City.

If they were to go ashore directly without any cover, it would definitely cause an uproar.

As Liang Jin spoke, he was about to tear his clothes.

Yu Linglong's face was full of disgust. She gently tore off a piece of silk gauze from her sleeve and tied it around her face with elegant movements, perfectly covering the lower half of her face.

Then she asked:

"What about you? You're not going to wear a mask?"

Liang Jin pointed helplessly at his tall and burly figure and said with a wry smile:
"With my body, even if I cover my face, it won't help."

In this world, there are very few people who are over two meters tall, and they will attract attention wherever they go.

What's more, Liang Jin's body was full of muscles, and there was a hideous scar on his face, coupled with his bald head. This image was too unique and unforgettable.

Therefore, Liang Jin knew in his heart that there was no way to hide his identity.

Yu Linglong couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard this.

The laughter was like the clear spring water in the mountains, tinkling and donging, crisp and pleasant.

Liang Jin's eyes lit up and the leader smiled, which meant that she was in a good mood at the moment.

Next, as long as he can serve her comfortably, his position in Hualongmen will be as stable as Mount Tai.

Soon, they were getting closer and closer to the land.

The port in the distance is clearly visible under the hazy moonlight.

In the harbor, ships are lined up neatly, their masts like a forest, and their sails fluttering gently in the night breeze.

These ships witnessed the prosperity and prosperity of Bibo City, and also made the newly arrived Yu Linglong stare at them with amazement. Liang Jin commanded the giant snake to carry them to a remote place.

Then, he took Yu Linglong and prepared to go ashore.

But who would have thought that the giant snake was also eager to go ashore with them.

How could Liang Jin agree?

This giant snake is so huge that once it comes ashore, it will be extremely difficult to avoid attracting other people's attention.

He and Yu Linglong could only patiently comfort and persuade the giant snake. After much persuasion, they finally made the giant snake wander obediently in the nearby sea, waiting for their return.

Afterwards, Liang Jin took Yu Linglong and walked towards Bi Bo City.

Due to the needs of trade, the gates of Bi Bo City remain open even at night.

The two entered the city smoothly.

After entering the city, a broad main road came into view. This was the most prosperous street in the city.

Even though it is night time, the night market is still bustling.

The night market was bustling with people and cars, and the sounds of hawking and laughter mixed together, making it very noisy and bustling.

As soon as Yu Linglong stepped onto the street, she ran around excitedly like a bird that had escaped from a cage.

She looked at everything around her, her eyes sparkling with curiosity and surprise, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, full of great interest in everything.

"Xiongba, these should be shops, these are the houses of ordinary people, and those should be the mansions of wealthy people, am I right?"

Yu Linglong pointed at the surrounding buildings of different styles and kept asking Liang Jin questions.

There are naturally buildings on Hualong Island, but they are all the same. Yu Linglong has been looking at them for decades and has long been tired of them.

Now, these buildings full of the flavor of life in front of her made her feel extremely novel.

Liang Jin nodded quickly and flattered:

"The young lady is extremely intelligent and hits the nail on the head!"

When going out, you naturally can no longer call Yu Linglong the Sect Master, but instead call her Miss.

Liang Jin's current identity is the bodyguard of his young lady, which was also agreed upon by the two in advance.

Yu Linglong raised her chin proudly and said:
"I've read all this in books, so it's not difficult for me."

As she spoke, she quickly dived into the bustling night market like a nimble fish.

"Xiongba! Xiongba, come and see!"

She ran to a stall, pointed at the small items on the stall, and shouted excitedly:

"Are these the legendary clay figures?"

Liang Jin hurried closer to take a look, and found that it was indeed a stall selling clay figurines.

Those clay figures are of various shapes and lifelike. Some are cute little animals, some are lifelike people, and each one is full of ingenuity.

"Miss, you really have a good eye. This is the clay figurine."

Liang Jin responded with a smile.

Yu Linglong's cheeks flushed with excitement, and she said loudly:
"Buy it! I want to buy it!"

It was her first time to go shopping in the true sense, and her excitement was beyond words.

Seeing this, the stall owner smiled warmly and asked:

"I wonder how much this lady wants to buy?"

Yu Linglong waved her hand generously and said:

"take them all!"

When the stall owner heard this, he smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits. He quickly and skillfully packed up all the clay figurines on the stall and handed them to Yu Linglong respectfully.

Yu Linglong was about to leave excitedly, holding the things she had purchased for the first time.

The stall owner hurriedly stopped her, still with a polite smile on his face, and said:

"Miss, you haven't paid yet?"

Yu Linglong was slightly stunned. From childhood to adulthood, she had never involved any money transaction in obtaining anything.

But she soon understood and said:

"Yes, yes, yes! You do have to pay for things."

"If you don't pay, it's like eating and dodging, which is against the law!"

The smile on the stall owner's face suddenly became a little strange, and he looked at Yu Linglong as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person.

Paying for things is a natural thing, but in the mouth of this little girl, it seems like something extremely novel.

However, Yu Linglong's next words completely froze the smile on the stall owner's face.

"But I have no money."

Yu Linglong answered honestly.

She never carried any money with her in her life.

Although Hualongmen is wealthy, all that wealth is just a string of abstract numbers to her.

Seeing this, Liang Jin had no choice but to take out the silver and hand it to the stall owner.

Then, he whispered to Yu Linglong:

"I'll cover the cost first. Miss, you have to reimburse me after you return."

Yu Linglong agreed readily, turned around and ran to another stall, and began to look around with great interest.

Following her is like embarking on a crazy shopping trip!

As long as she is interested in something, she will buy it all without hesitation.

Soon, Liang Jin's hands were filled with bags of all kinds.

With his strength, carrying these things is no problem for him.

But Yu Linglong buys things without restraint. If she continues like this, what if she takes a fancy to a house or land? Will I have to keep paying for her?
Just when Liang Jin was about to speak up to dissuade him.

What he had been worrying about finally happened.

Two people came towards him. When they saw Liang Jin, they immediately bowed respectfully.

"Meet Chief Senior Brother!"

"We didn't know that you, Chief Senior Brother, would come. We were unable to greet you from afar. Please forgive us, Chief Senior Brother!"

Liang Jin did not know these two people, but they were very familiar with Liang Jin.

Liang Jin knew without much thought that they must be disciples of Hualongmen.

Immediately, Liang Jin raised his hand to signal the two to be silent, and then lowered his voice and said to them:
"I'm here tonight to carry out a secret mission for our sect. You must not make any noise, and there's no need to inform your superiors."

The two Hualongmen disciples looked at each other and quickly answered in unison:

"I'll wait for orders!"

Liang Jin's status and position were far above theirs, so how could they dare to disobey orders?

Moreover, Liang Jin is now the Inspector General, touring the country on behalf of the emperor, so it is reasonable for him to go on a private visit in disguise.

Therefore, the two did not doubt it too much.

Liang Jin nodded, then turned and left with Yu Linglong.

But they had not walked far when they heard the two Hualongmen disciples whispering behind them.

"Bah! Xiongba, this shameless scum, actually became the Inspector General. God is really blind."

"I heard he imprisoned two of his junior brothers and sisters in the Supervisory Hall. The younger sister is charming and attractive, with a figure that can be described as a stunner; the younger brother has a feminine appearance, delicate and alluring, even more beautiful than a woman. That Xiongba locked them up and indulged in sexual pleasure day and night. He's simply shameless!"

"Exactly. This lewd, shameless scum who's all-male, and we're actually supposed to bow to him? This is outrageous!"

"Look at the woman next to him now. Although she's wearing a veil, she's clearly a beauty. Her skin is as white as snow, and her figure is incredibly well-proportioned. She's obviously one of Xiong Ba's female disciples."

"They talk about carrying out a secret mission, but in my opinion, they just brought his concubine to the city for some pleasure. Humph, how shameless!"
