New and dark light years

Chapter 41 Only Focus on Me

Two True Lords?

Huang Qi was stunned for a moment, then he waved his hand and an old-looking warrior walked over.

"Uncle Fang, go up and talk to my cousin about this."

Zhao Hao interrupted and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the extra True Lord should be the Hundred-Faced True Lord who caused a big incident in Wancheng a few years ago!"

Except for Li Lin, everyone else's expressions became solemn.

Huang Qi said to the old warrior, "Hurry up and inform my cousin so he can prepare."

The old man immediately went to the front line.

Huang Qi's expression was solemn: "Why would that Hundred-Faced True Lord come to our Jincheng?"

Naturally, no one could answer his question. Ghosts are always elusive.

Then he sighed and said, "That True Lord traveled all the way from the Central Plains, destroying countless villages along the way, yet not much news has come out. You can imagine how corrupt the civil administration in those places has become."

Li Lin had also heard that for a powerful demon like 'True Lord', it was actually very easy to destroy a village of a hundred people.

Moreover, it was very easy for experienced bureaucrats to conceal the disappearance of many villages.

Just as Huang Qi was sighing, Huang Xiu retreated from the front. He asked anxiously, "Is he really the Hundred-Faced True Lord?"

"Based on Li Xunshou's description, I think so." Zhao Hao stood up and said.

Huang Xiu asked, "Didn't you see it?"

Bai Liwei, Su Huafang, and Zhao Hao all shook their heads.

Huang Xiu looked at Li Lin: "Are you the only one who can see this?"

Li Lin took out the mask, put it on his face, and put it down again.

Huang Xiu tutted his words, "A strange weapon... belonging to the Tree Fairy Queen, no wonder."

Huang Qi was full of admiration. Although he couldn't see the ghost, he was in Yulin County, so how could he not have heard of the name of the Tree Fairy Goddess.

"That must be the Hundred-Faced Master." Huang Xiu smiled, looking at the fortress that had been set ablaze after two waves of rocket fire. He said, "Let's retreat first. There's already a big fire here, and with the Hundred-Faced Master here, Zhang Minsheng and the others won't survive."

Huang Qi asked, "But Hundred-Faced True Lord...if we leave here, what will happen if his group wreaks havoc in Yulin County and the surrounding areas?"

Huang Xiu chuckled, "Let's go back and ask the Four Wonderful True Lords for help!"

Huang Qi was stunned for a moment: "Is it possible?"

"We can't do it, but uncle can." Huang Xiu said calmly, "Our group of people is not enough for the True Lord to eat, and there is no point in staying here. The sooner we go back and tell our uncle about this and ask the Four Wonderful True Lords to take action, the less casualties the county will suffer."

As soon as Huang Xiu finished speaking, a surge of resentment rose from inside the fortress.

Faint screams could be heard.

Shrouded in resentment, not to mention ordinary people, even the spirit hunters felt cold all over.

The fire in the fortress began to die down, and even white frost slowly extended from the inside to the outside.

"The Hundred-Faced True Lord has started to take action." Huang Xiu said.

"Then let's go." Huang Qi was no fool. He rubbed his hands, which had begun to feel cold, and immediately took out the county lieutenant's order and shouted, "All constables and local soldiers, listen to this order. Evacuate immediately and return to the county seat. No delay."

Hearing this, Bai Liwei, Zhao Hao and Su Huafang all breathed a sigh of relief.

Their nerves were obviously tense just now.

Li Lin was confused at first, but then he immediately understood.

Generally speaking, when encountering a ghost... such a thing, no matter whether it is a big ghost or a small ghost, the ghost hunters are required to take the lead.

The three of them were afraid that Huang Qi, the young county lieutenant, was ignorant of his own limitations and sent the four of them, the spirit hunters, to deal with the True Lord.

That's like throwing a meat bun at a dog, there's no way back.

Fortunately, there are no stupid people in the Huang family.

Upon hearing the order, the nearly 400-man column retreated immediately, in an orderly fashion. These soldiers were clearly well-trained. Although they were marching at night, the mingled energy of the 400 men, with several spirit hunters among them, meant the wild and treacherous people didn't dare approach.

Besides, this team is still on the move, and those weirdos are not gathering very quickly, so they are not afraid of them for the time being.

A few days later, the local army passed by Shangtikou Village, and Li Lin separated from Huang Qi and others.

"Brother Kunge, thank you for your hard work these days. When you have recovered, come to the county again and I will apologize to you then." Huang Qi said sincerely.

"What crime have you committed?" Li Lin was a little puzzled.

"It was my idea to use the spirit hunters as bait, but I didn't expect that you would be assigned by my father." Huang Qi said with a wry smile.

"It's okay, I know you didn't mean it." Li Lin waved his hand indifferently.

Huang Qi said seriously, "Please come, because I will be leaving for Tianjin in ten days, and I may only return to Yulin County during important times."

Li Lin thought about it and said, "Okay."

When the time comes, it will just be a farewell for Huang Qi.

After getting Li Lin's agreement, Huang Qi happily left with his local army.

Before Li Lin returned to the village, he saw a green shadow at the entrance of the village.

Then it disappeared in a flash. Although he could not see its face, Li Lin could see the long snake tail clearly.

He smiled and came to the altar.

The Tree Fairy Queen hid inside and did not come out.

Li Lin didn't care. He recounted what had happened over the past few days and then said, "If it weren't for the mask you gave me this time, we might have died in there and wouldn't have been able to wait for Huang Qi and the others to rescue us. It's just that we may not have such good luck next time. Anyway, thank you in advance."

The Tree Fairy Queen came out.

She looked at Li Lin, her pretty face seemed expressionless, but in her gray eyes, one could see some... worry.

She pointed to the ground and said, "Don't go out!"

Li Lin understood what she meant. She wanted to protect him for the rest of his life.

"Alright, I won't leave the village unless necessary. My Queen, you have to protect me for the rest of my life."

The Tree Fairy Queen looked at him steadily without saying a word.

Over the next two days, Li Lin returned to his previous life.

Practice, cultivate, and teach Xiaohu.

Even harder than before.

Since there is a way to become stronger, you should be more serious about it. After all, this world is not friendly at all.

On the third night after returning to the village, Li Lin had just fallen asleep when he was suddenly awakened by a huge breath.

He got up from the bed, ran to the yard, looked in the direction where the breath came from, and his eyes widened.

The breath came from the direction of the county town, where a giant was standing!
It was so huge that he could see the other person's eyebrows clearly even though he was more than 30 miles away from the county town.

The majestic aura formed wind pressure, surging in all directions.

With the giant as the center, the whole world seemed to be shaken by the wind.

Li Lin remembered what Huang Xiu had said before, that he wanted to ask the 'Four Wonderful True Lords' for help.

"Is this the Four Wonderful True Lords?"

Li Lin murmured.

The Tree Fairy Queen appeared beside him at some point.

She looked at Si Miao Zhenjun with hatred in her eyes.

Then she covered Li Lin's eyes with her hands: "Don't look at him... From now on, you can only look at me."
