Wu Yun and Wu Yu did not delay any longer. They simply dealt with the battlefield and soon disappeared into the darkness with Lin Xiao.
Just as Lin Xiao expected, not long after, more than ten streams of light came from the sky and landed on the place where the battle had just taken place.
If Lin Xiao stayed here, he would find that he knew everyone here.
"Master Hongchen, can this be considered an explanation to you?"
The person who spoke was Zhongli Wu. I'm afraid Lin Xiao would not have thought that the leader of the Holy Spirit Church would personally take action in this matter.
Although Mingdetang lost the materials, Jing Hongchen's expression was no different from before. He stretched out his hand and two storage soul guides fell into his hands.
His expression suddenly changed after scanning with his mental power. "No, this isn't the batch of materials Mingde Hall lost."
"What?" Zhongli Wu was also startled. He exchanged glances with the other members of the Holy Spirit Church. "Master, are you sure?"
Jing Hongchen threw the storage soul guide in his hand out and threw it into Zhongli Wu's hands. "Master Zhongli, why don't you take a look at it yourself? Do you think this kind of thing is worthy of such attention from Mingde Hall?"
"Master, this group of robbers must have sold the contents of the storage soul guide in advance, and then left the storage soul guide behind to keep it a mystery." Someone next to Zhongli Wu spoke softly.
"What do you think, Master Hongchen?" Zhongli Wu did not respond, but turned to look at Jing Hongchen.
"It seems that this is the only way." Jing Hongchen also nodded slightly. "Well, once the materials are sold, it will be extremely difficult to retrieve them. Mingde Hall's research cannot be stopped. I can only think of another way."
"However, with Sect Leader Zhongli and your sect in Mingdu, there are still people who dare to act so arrogantly. They truly do not take your sect seriously."
Zhongli Wu waved his hand. "Although our sect serves His Majesty, we are ultimately evil spirit masters and cannot appear in public. We cannot interfere in many areas, and there will always be some oversights. However, please rest assured, Master, we will pay more attention in the future."
Zhongli Wu and Jing Hongchen looked at each other, laughed, and turned into several streams of light and flew away into the distance. Only the people who followed Zhongli Wu looked at the traces of battle on the ground before leaving together.
"My lord, how are you?"
On the other side, Lin Xiao and the other two were heading back towards Mingdu under the cover of night. Wu Yun still asked with some concern.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"But sir, the attack launched by that fish that escaped the net you mentioned earlier was quite powerful, and you were at the center of it, really..."
Mentioning this, Lin Xiao turned his head slightly to glance at Wu Yun, paused for a moment, and then shook his head. "It's okay. Although I was in the center, I didn't suffer any damage. It's just that I was quite exhausted, and the fish that slipped through the net had to escape."
Having said that, Lin Xiao had already vaguely guessed where the person who escaped would end up.
As the three were talking, Lin Xiao, who was at the front, suddenly noticed something and stopped. Wu Yun and Wu Yu reacted quickly, and the Spirit of Vengeance appeared beside them.
"boom--"
It was not until this time that an attack landed not far in front of Lin Xiao and the others, followed by a voice that sounded young.
"It's indeed an evil soul master. I knew that letting those evil soul masters deal with the evil soul masters' affairs would not cover up."
As he was speaking, several figures emerged from the darkness on both sides and vaguely surrounded Lin Xiao and the other two.
Tonight was really wonderful.
Lin Xiao sighed.
He originally thought it was a simple mission. No matter what the relationship was between this matter and the Holy Spirit Church, his mission was actually very simple from beginning to end. It was just to get rid of the group of robbers.
But unexpectedly, a real evil soul master appeared among the group of robbers at the beginning, and he even knew how to use corpse explosion techniques, allowing him to escape by surprise attack.
Then, Ye Guyi, who had been searching for evil soul masters recently, came to the door with the Ordinary Alliance.
Now, I don’t know who is blocking here again.
If Lin Xiao had not consumed a lot of his soul power and mental strength in the previous two battles, he should have noticed these people earlier.
Lin Xiao looked at the people in front of him, but when he saw the figure in front of him clearly, his eyes changed slightly.
He was not unfamiliar with the two people who appeared here, but why did they appear here?
Chapter 99 There are still masters
"Meng, you see, I told you that those evil soul masters couldn't be trusted, but Grandpa told me not to get involved. If it weren't for us tonight, I'm afraid these people would have gotten away."
The people who appeared in front of Lin Xiao were none other than the brother and sister Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen. No wonder the voice just now sounded too young.
As for the people they brought, their attire did not look like that of the people from Mingde Hall or the guards of Mingdu, but more like the guards of Jing Hongchen's own family.
"Although I only heard fragments from their reports to Grandpa, I also know that your crimes were all committed around Mingdu, so your residence is actually in Mingdu City."
"Am I right?"
Xiao Hongchen looked at Lin Xiao, who was standing in front of the three people, with a bit of arrogance on his face.
"So, I came here early after receiving the news tonight. I mentioned it to Grandpa many times before, but he didn't want me to get involved. Now that I've brought you back, I want to see what Grandpa has to say."
Lin Xiao pressed the mask to make his voice more vague, "Who is your grandfather?"
"Hmph, you don't need to know yet, get started!"
At Xiao Hongchen's command, all the guards around him rushed forward.
To be chosen by Jing Hongchen as guards, these people naturally had their own unique qualities. Although their cultivation was not very high, their cooperation with each other was quite close.
Attack, paralysis, penetration... various soul-guided rays with different effects shot out from this group of people one after another, and in the blink of an eye, they enveloped him like a big net.
Lin Xiao dodged while his eyes kept scanning these soul masters.
It is not known whether this is a tactic developed by Jing Hongchen. Although Lin Xiao has been studying soul guides for a long time in the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy, this is the first time he has seen soul guides used in this way.
If used by two people, this tactic can have the effect of three people. Now that more than ten people attack together, Lin Xiao feels like he is facing an entire well-trained army.
Especially those different soul-guided rays, you need to spend your mind to judge their attack methods before they fall, and you need to be distracted to consider whether to dodge or defend.
Lin Xiao even felt that their soul power and mental power were interconnected, otherwise how could they cooperate so tacitly.
No, that's not right.
Lin Xiao's eyes flashed. He couldn't be sure of his mental strength, but perhaps their soul powers were truly connected. Lin Xiao's gaze swept over the several people one by one, sensing the flow of soul power around them. Perhaps what these people were using was the prototype of a future array soul guide.
Although these people's cultivation was not very high, Lin Xiao had already consumed a lot of energy before. If he continued like this, he might really be caught by them.
"Help me hold it off for a moment."
Lin Xiao glanced at Xiao Hongchen and spoke to Wu Yun in a low voice.
Wu Yun and Wu Yu nodded slightly, looked at each other, and a sharp scream came out of their mouths.
Even if these people have protective soul guides, their defenses will be much weaker when facing mental attacks.
A moment of distraction was enough for Lin Xiao.
If Xiao Hongchen only let this group of people with the prototype of the array soul guide device fight with him, he might really be trapped here, but he appeared in person, and even if he had little soul power left, he still had a way to escape.
Seeing Lin Xiao looking at him, Xiao Hongchen was not at all panicked. Instead, he showed his martial soul. Four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, rose from his side, as if he wanted to compete with Lin Xiao.
There is certainly a reason why Xiao Hongchen is arrogant. He knows his own talent clearly. Even in Shrek Academy, the so-called number one academy on the continent, the students' talents are not as good as his.
Although he has just broken through to the Soul Sect, Xiao Hongchen is confident that he can fight with him even if the opponent is a Soul Emperor.
What's more, there are other means between him and Meng Hongchen.
However, when Lin Xiao got closer and closer and the six soul rings around him rose one by one, he was still a little panicked.
Six ten thousand year soul rings, what kind of monster is this?
Xiao Hongchen subconsciously raised a handful of gold powder. Under the control of his martial soul, the gold powder instantly turned into a number of soul-guided cannons hanging on his body. They seemed to have no weight at all, and the light from the muzzles gathered, obviously ready to fire.
Even though there was a gap in soul power, at such a close distance, Lin Xiao would not feel good if he was hit.
However, behind Lin Xiao, the light of the soul guide propulsion device lit up, and his speed suddenly increased. He raised his left hand and touched Xiao Hongchen's gun barrel, and the soul guide cannon on his body instantly collapsed.
Even if it was a real soul guide device, it would be swallowed and absorbed by Lin Xiao under the power of his left arm bone. The soul guide cannon on Xiao Hongchen's body was just condensed by him using his martial soul. If the soul power level exceeded his, it would be easy to silence these soul guide cannons.
"Dream!"
Xiao Hongchen was just an eleven or twelve-year-old boy with good talent. He had been practicing with Jing Hongchen since he was young, so naturally he would not encounter too many setbacks. He took it for granted that he could deal with the evil soul master with his strength.
But at this moment, he was really in danger, and the panic expression on his face could not be concealed at all.
However, this voice was heard by Meng Hongchen and Lin Xiao as well. How could he not know what the brother and sister were going to do?
Seeing Meng Hongchen flying towards him and hearing Xiao Hongchen's call, Lin Xiao suddenly turned around and stretched out his right arm.
Xiao Hongchen was startled to find that a golden protective shield had already enveloped him.
However, his shield did not block anything. Lin Xiao's target was not him at all. When his right arm bent back again, he had already caught Meng Hongchen in his arms, and his right hand was tightly pinching her tender neck.
"Stop it all!"
"Dream!" Xiao Hongchen exclaimed, but still did not dare to move forward.
"You are right, but there is one thing I didn't expect, that is, your cultivation level is not enough to stop us." Lin Xiao looked at Xiao Hongchen.
"If you have the guts, let her go and keep saying things like that!"
"This isn't an arena for you and other kids to play house with. There's more than one way to decide the winner."
Lin Xiao clenched his right hand slightly, and Meng Hongchen coughed twice.
"Well, can you let us go?"
"My grandfather is Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall."
"Didn't you just refuse to tell me?" Lin Xiao laughed, then suddenly realized something and looked back. "It's easy for me to let her go, but I'm short of some soul guides when I'm away..."
Xiao Hongchen glanced at Meng Hongchen, not knowing what he was thinking, "I can give it to you."
"I don't want your stuff." Lin Xiao suddenly raised his voice. "I think the soul guides on your guards are quite good. I wonder if you could lend me one to observe."
Chapter 100 Weird
"This kid has such a keen sense."
In the darkness in the distance, a voice suddenly sounded.
"Haha, Master Hongchen, my disciples are still waiting for your answer." Zhongli Wu's figure slowly appeared at the side.
"If my grandson agrees, I'll give you one, so why not?" Jing Hongchen said, his eyes never leaving Lin Xiao in the distance. "Let my grandson suffer a little setback, just consider it as paying tuition."
Xiao Hongchen didn't know what Lin Xiao was doing, but when he heard his words, he waved his hand and called a security guard to remove the soul guide from his body.
Lin Xiao looked at the guards dismantling the soul guide, then glanced at Meng Hongchen who didn't struggle at all, and suddenly asked, "What are you waiting for? Waiting for me to get poisoned?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's expressions changed at the same time.
