Chapter 178 Don’t be fooled
However, as soon as she closed her eyes, Mu Nanyue noticed that there were countless strange auras around her, rushing towards the inn at lightning speed.
She felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in her heart, so Mu Nanyue did not fall asleep. Instead, she got up and walked to the window, reached out and slowly pushed open the tightly closed window.
as predicted!
She stood by the window and clearly saw a group of men in black, wearing uniform clothes and holding swords, quickly surrounding the inn.
Soon, a noise was heard from next door.
Pei Yinghuai, who stood as tall as a pine tree, appeared in front of everyone with steady steps. He looked indifferent and stared at them calmly, "Let's do it."
Pei Yinghuai spoke calmly, as if he knew that the man in black was coming to seek revenge on him.
Seeing his arrogant attitude, not taking them seriously at all, the leading man shouted angrily: "You are a casual cultivator, how dare you assassinate Elder Lin San!"
"Go! Capture him alive!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding men in black swarmed over and the sound of fighting spread quickly.
Mu Nanyue next door was standing by the window, her hands crossed in front of her chest, watching the show calmly.
Her appearance was too eye-catching. Under the bleak moonlight, her skin looked as white as cream, and her delicate facial features were bright and prominent.
Therefore, the people below quickly discovered her and rushed over with weapons in hand.
"This is his accomplice, kill him!"
Mu Nanyue: "..."
Oh, I almost forgot, that Third Elder Lin was killed by her own hands.
Mu Nanyue couldn't watch the show, and several men in black appeared in her room out of nowhere, obviously surrounding her.
She shook her head in a distressed manner, but said fearlessly: "Alas... there are always villains who want to harm me!"
Pei Yinghuai, who was besieged by a group of men in black at this time, saw Mu Nanyue falling into the same situation. He immediately waved his hand, and a powerful spiritual energy burst out of his body, instantly knocking everyone around him away.
"Bang bang bang--" The sound of the explosion was deafening. The thick smoke had not yet dissipated, but the heart-wrenching screams continued to flow into the ears, making people shudder.
In the blink of an eye, Pei Yinghuai had flashed in front of Mu Nanyue and protected her behind him. His pair of eyes filled with cold and murderous intent looked down at them condescendingly.
His arrogant attitude completely angered the men in black below.
The leading man was so angry that his face turned blue, but he was very self-aware and did not dare to send anyone to attack Pei Yinghuai without authorization.
Upon learning that the third elder Lin had died and finding the murderer, the Lin family specially sent two hundred family elites, but most of them were killed by Pei Yinghuai in one move.
The strength is so terrifying!
No wonder he was able to kill Elder Lin with his sword.
In fact, they did not know how Elder Lin died. They only knew that he sent back two blurry figures before his death, and that the treasure Elder Lin fought for was the "Fire Spirit Pearl".
The only Fire Spirit Pearl in the world was snatched away from Elder Lin.
Naturally, they wanted to snatch back such a precious treasure, but the Lin family did not dare to act rashly, because Elder Lin was a powerful man in the late stage of "tribulation", and was the most powerful figure in the Lin family except for the ancestor.
He was killed just like that, without even a chance to escape.
The opponent's strength was too terrifying, so the Lin family had to test them again and again. One day, the Lin family's spies reported that the two murderers appeared in Baihu Town, and they immediately sent people to besiege the two people.
I wanted to test him out, but I didn't expect that he would kill many elites of the Lin family with just one move. He was so decisive and ruthless, how could the Lin family not be afraid?
But the Lin family was naturally unwilling to watch them leave.
The Fire Spirit Pearl was on him. If he didn't take the treasure back, he didn't know how the head of the Lin family would punish them...
Thinking of this, the leader gritted his teeth. Seeing the surrounding black-clothed men being knocked away again, he immediately became furious. He pointed to the room on the third floor and shouted, "Hurry up! Capture the man who took the Lin family's Fire Spirit Pearl. There will be a huge reward!"
"What? There is a Fire Spirit Pearl?"
"Don't be fooled. Where did the Lin family get the Fire Spirit Pearl? If they had such a treasure, they would have taken it out to show off long ago!"
"That's right! Maybe he saw someone else had the Fire Spirit Pearl and wanted to take it for himself, so he turned the tables and slandered someone else for taking the Lin family's Fire Spirit Pearl!"
The Lin family is considered a large family after all, but most of their younger generations are bullies who only bully the weak and fear the strong, and have done many things that have aroused public anger.
Therefore, although everyone fears the power and status of the Lin family, most people choose to believe the other side before clarifying the situation.
And I suspect the Lin family, are they doing something unscrupulous again?
Hearing the discussions around him, Lin Xi's face darkened.
But he didn't dare to take his anger out on others at this moment. After all, he was not a direct descendant of the Lin family. He was just a member of the side branch of the Lin family who was sent by the head of the family to die.
Lin Xi didn't dare to offend others easily. He could only bully others occasionally when he knew the other person's identity.
The people nearby were all awakened by the noise. The cultivators who could go to the Valley of Ten Thousand Demons were either extremely powerful independent cultivators or people from major families.
That's right, Lin Xi knew that they had the strength, so he mentioned the Fire Spirit Pearl.
Otherwise he wouldn't dare tell anyone about it. Lin Xi wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife, but no one around him was willing to believe him.
No, to be precise, I don’t believe what the Lin family says, and I also suspect that they are doing something oppressive.
Some people also felt sorry for Mu Nanyue and Pei Yinghuai, thinking that they were attacked because they had discovered something good or blocked the Lin family's path.
Unexpectedly, they were also powerful and had defeated the Lin family to the point where they were helpless.
"What are you all standing there for? Hurry up!" Lin Xi saw that after the first wave of men in black were repelled, the remaining people did not move and continued to stay where they were. He was so angry that he immediately vented his anger on them.
The Lin family elites who followed them dared not say anything but were angry. They immediately clenched the magic weapons in their hands and quickly attacked Pei Yinghuai and Mu Nanyue.
Unfortunately, they didn't even have the chance to get close, and were knocked away again by Pei Yinghuai with a light wave of his hand.
“Ahhh——” They fell heavily to the ground like kites with broken strings, spitting blood from their mouths and died.
The room on the third floor was pitch black. Mu Nanyue looked at Pei Yinghuai who was standing in front of her. He protected her tightly behind him without saying a word, but he did not let any danger get close to her.
Mu Nanyue frowned slightly, and felt that Pei Yinghuai was very familiar. Some guesses flashed through her mind and she asked, "Xiao Tongzi, do you think he was my lover in my previous life?"
system:"……"
"Host, you didn't have a man in your previous life." The previous life that System 007 was referring to was the previous small world.
That Wen Weiyang doesn't count.
"Oh." Mu Nanyue curled her lips.
