As for whether Lin Yi was an undercover agent, he didn't even consider it.

Can an undercover agent go to this extent?

When He Peng and his men appeared, Lin Yi didn't waste any words and immediately appeared on the official road, facing a hundred riders alone.

Wang Wei wanted to help, but Lin Yi had told him to stay far away, so he just watched from a distance.

Upon hearing the awe-inspiring roar of the tiger, Wang Wei was stunned.

Good heavens, is this the Lion's Roar Kung Fu of Buddhism?

Even the Lion's Roar technique doesn't seem that powerful.

Sealing the spiritual essence further highlights Lin Yi's abilities.

This tiger's roar is not a celestial magic. Although it can dispel evil spirits, it is essentially a manifestation of one's own essence, energy, and spirit. It is a personal power and does not connect with heaven and earth, so it can be used.

Lin Yi's roar was certainly no less powerful than Zhang Fei's roar at Changban Slope.

The group of people were terrified by the shouts, and those who were still alive were weak in the knees.

He Peng knew this was a tough opponent. He fell off his horse, picked up his spiked club, and asked, "Who are you? What are you doing blocking the way?"

If an agreement can be reached, it's best to focus on negotiation and avoid conflict.

He Peng still harbored such thoughts, but Lin Yi laughed and said, "I am the Killing Daoist, here to send you on your way!"

Without another word, Lin Yi charged into the crowd, cutting down heads like vegetables.

Wang Wei was already dumbfounded as he watched from afar.

Fellow Daoist, how mighty you are! Fierceness aside, your mastery of the sword is also extremely precise. You can behead everyone with pinpoint accuracy. In less than a minute, all one hundred people are dead.

As for He Peng, Lin Yi gave him special treatment.

Use his spiked club to beat him into a pulp, just like his nephew.

A family should always be together like this.

"The Killing Taoist and the Heartless Swordsman of the Green and Red Gang killed enemies here."

Lin Yi didn't write down many charges here, because the words were written in blood, and he was afraid there wouldn't be enough blood. The body wasn't dealt with much; it was simply left on the official road.

Presumably, the reinforcements who come to handle matters related to Qingshui County will know what they can and cannot do.

Although all the men were dead, there were still more than eighty horses alive. Lin Yi only knocked out and killed a few of them with his initial roar; the rest were fine.

Lin Yi then called Wang Wei over, and together they guided the horses.

You killed people, and now you want to ride their horses?

This was somewhat excessive, but Wang Wei liked it.

"What are your plans next, fellow Daoist?"

Wang Wei still traveled with Lin Yi. He knew that his abilities were limited, so he could only cheer Lin Yi on. Lin Yi killed everyone without Wang Wei even having to lift a finger.

While this is a good thing, as it saves him from taking risks, it is also a waste of his personal abilities.

Therefore, he wanted to ask Lin Yi about his next plans. If there was anything he could help with, he would do so; otherwise, he would go his own way and not travel with Lin Yi.

Lin Yi can do a better job on his own; we don't need him.

Lin Yi didn't hide anything from Wang Wei. This fellow Daoist was a good one, which completely improved the image of Daoists in Lin Yi's mind.

Can those people in Longhu Mountain who shout about following the way of heaven be called virtuous people?

Lin Yi felt that Wang Wei, who sacrificed the path of immortality for the sake of humanity, was the one who truly deserved to be called a virtuous person.

There was no need to hide Lin Yi's upcoming itinerary from him.

"I plan to investigate Tuoba Yu and then find an opportunity to kill him. Fellow Daoist, what about you?"

"You intend to assassinate Tuoba Yu?"

Since Wang Wei started spending time with Lin Yi, he had been shocked many times. He originally thought there was nothing to be shocked about anymore. As a third-grade cultivator, he had seen a lot of the world and should be calm.

Unfortunately, he couldn't stay calm in front of Lin Yi.

"Do you know who Tuoba Yu is? He is a member of the Northern Wei royal family, the younger brother of Emperor Xiaowen of Northern Wei, and the uncle of the current emperor. He holds a high position and wields great power, commanding an army of over 100,000..."

"It doesn't matter. As long as he's a person, he'll die if he's killed."

Wang Wei: "..."

You're absolutely right, but something still feels off...

Chapter 379 The Turbulent Times of Chang'an

Lin Yi was determined to kill Tuoba Yu, and nothing else mattered. Now that he had witnessed the tragic scene at Abandoned Baby Slope and heard the whole story, he was determined to get to the bottom of this matter.

This is his theory of causality.

Coincidentally, joining the Green and Red Gang could also help conceal his whereabouts; his current Taoist robe was precisely to evade Zero One's pursuit.

He can't afford to mess with this girl for now.

Lin Yi had no idea that in order to avoid Zero One, he had also managed to evade the abbot of Qianfo Temple as well.

The Buddha of Moonlight and the White Dragon Protector only returned to the temple in a dream on the seventh day after their deaths. The abbot of Thousand Buddha Temple was furious, as the loss of two important figures had a huge impact on the temple.

If we don't help them get revenge, how can we keep the monks at ease in the future?

However, despite his extensive search, he could not find any trace of Lin Yi. It was as if the man had vanished without a trace. The only certainty was that he had gone deep into the Northern Wei and had not returned to the Southern Dynasty.

Knowing this, the abbot of Qianfo Temple was no longer in a hurry.

The Northern Dynasty is their territory. If Lin Yi shows his face again, he will never return!

Getting back to the main point, Wang Wei learned that Lin Yi was determined to kill Tuoba Yu and understood the origin of Lin Yi's murderous intent. Wang Wei admired him from the bottom of his heart.

Since he couldn't change Lin Yi's decision, he could only try to help him.

This fellow Daoist Yi Lin is new to the area and doesn't know much about the situation in the north. He helped explain things to him, which helped him avoid some detours.

"This Tuoba Yu, whose title is Prince of Qin, is deeply favored by Emperor Xiaowen. He committed a crime in Qin Prefecture before, and after it was exposed and reported, he was not demoted, but instead was granted a fief in Chang'an, which shows the emperor's favor."

Over the years, the Green Gang has attempted to assassinate him many times, but none of them have succeeded.

He was guarded by twelve great shamans, and in the ancient capital of Chang'an, lingering dragon energy still lingered. Cultivators were powerless against him; even sealing his spiritual essence was no match for the twelve great shamans.

Many wanted him dead, and various assassination methods had been used—honey traps, poison—every imaginable had been employed by many of his fellow martial artists. This made Tuoba Yu even more cautious; killing him was virtually impossible.

Wang Wei said this in an attempt to persuade Lin Yi to give up.

He is indeed very powerful, but with his innate superhuman strength, how could he possibly defeat the Twelve Great Witches?

Perhaps if the spiritual essence hadn't been sealed, Lin Yi could have still put up a fight with the Great Witch, but he definitely couldn't now.

Wang Wei never imagined that Lin Yi was a first-grade expert, and even with his spiritual veins sealed, he was still a first-grade expert. Quite a few first-grade experts had died at his hands.

He felt that before Lin Yi sealed his spiritual essence, he was at most a second-grade cultivator. He was only able to fight so well because of his innate superhuman strength and keen senses.

But even superhuman strength has its limits; attempting to assassinate Tuoba Yu would be no different from suicide.

"None of that matters. Now that we know Tuoba Yu is in Chang'an, let's go there..."

Lin Yi's current cultivation level is close to eight thousand years. It's no exaggeration to say that if he throws a punch with all his might, he can punch through a small mountain.

A single stomp of the foot could cause an earthquake in Qingshui County.

This is only his strength, not to mention his invulnerable body that is immune to swords and spears and magic.

He is now a monster with high attack, high defense, and high agility, let alone Tuoba Yu who only has 100,000 soldiers.

With another million, it's only a matter of time before Lin Yi can solve the problem.

At his level, not even a thousand troops could stop him.

As for the twelve great witches...

If they were replaced with the Twelve Great Sacrifices, Lin Yi would be interested to see if he could take on the challenge.

With such martial prowess, why would Lin Yi need to fear a worldly prince?

We already know he's in Chang'an, and Chang'an isn't far. If we hurry there now, we can arrive tonight at his running speed.

What does it mean to say, "If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening"?

"Fellow Daoist, aren't you going to make any more preparations?"

Wang Wei quickly pulled back the excited Lin Yi. They were still leading eighty horses, making such a show of themselves, and were going to kill Tuoba Yu without any preparation. Wasn't this just suicide?

How come Lin Yi saw this as something as simple as drinking water in the past?

He was still young and impulsive, and Wang Wei, as an older man, naturally wanted to take care of him.

"We'd better make a plan!"

"Us? You're going too?"

Lin Yi was somewhat surprised. Wang Wei smiled and said, "Since you are determined to kill Tuoba Yu, I would like to do my part. I started to untie my meridians last night, and by the time we reach Chang'an, I will have almost fully recovered my cultivation. I can then help you out."

"That's fine then."

Since Wang Wei was so willing, Lin Yi didn't refuse.

They had over eighty warhorses, which they rode in shifts, not caring about horsepower, and they could still reach Chang'an tonight, which would save Lin Yi some effort.

His meridians are now sealed, so he can no longer ride the wind. His running speed has decreased significantly, and he is not as fast as riding a horse.

There might be some checkpoints along the way, but we can stop them when the time comes.

The two then rode their horses eastward, galloping all the way, but that will not be described in detail here.

At this moment in Chang'an, the fat-headed and big-eared Tuoba Yu was also feeling somewhat irritable.

A few days ago, the two chief priests, Dragon Wolf and White Wolf, suddenly visited him, saying that there was a sign of dragons and tigers meeting and wind and thunder gathering in Chang'an City, and advised him to go to the capital for temporary refuge.

Tuoba Yu refused on the spot. Did he really think Tuoba Yu was stupid?

He is now the emperor's uncle, with a fiefdom in the prosperous city of Chang'an, and 100,000 armored soldiers. In addition, he has secretly developed another 100,000 elite troops. In Chang'an, he is practically a local emperor, and he even has his old subordinates in Qinzhou and Liangzhou.

The emperor's decrees had no effect on him.

Of course, Tuoba Yu never thought of rebelling; being a carefree prince was much more enjoyable.
