A small casual cultivator!

Chapter 179 Taking great pains

The area we are in now is relatively quiet.

Lu Luan stood quietly in the shadows in the distance, looking ahead with cold eyes.

Because there were several powerful auras among them, although they were hidden very well, he could still sense them, and those were all in the early tenth level of Qi Refining.

After his physical body was perfected, his six senses were already comparable to those of a person at the foundation-building stage.

So these little tricks will definitely not be hidden from his eyes.

"Strange, where can there be so many strong men in Lindu?" Lu Luan looked puzzled. After all, there were not many tenth-level strong men in the entire Lin family.

But he didn't move because there were still people in the dark.

Sure enough, after a while, two people came out from the side and then entered the house.

These must be used to check if there are any eyes following.

After seeing them all go in, Lu Luan restrained his breath and began to approach.

He wanted to see what the eldest young master of the Lin family was doing in there.

inside the house.

A person stood in front and waited quietly.

When the man saw Lin Du coming in, he turned around. He was a masked man and bowed, "Greetings, Master."

Lin did not speak, but sat aside. After a while, two more people came in and bowed:

"I've met the master."

There are three people in total, all of them are in the middle and late eighth levels.

It seems that these are the people secretly trained by Lin Du. Although their cultivation is a bit weak, there should be more than these few.

Lin Du also wore a mask and hid his aura when he came, so the three people must not know his identity. After all, these hawks and dogs are a double-edged sword. If used well, they can help you solve problems, but if used poorly, they will bring disaster upon yourself.

"No one is following."

Lin Du asked calmly with a blank expression.

One of them stepped forward, bowed and replied, "My lord, no one followed us."

"That's good."

Lin Du nodded slightly, then stood up, glanced at the three people, turned around and said, "Do you know why I asked you to come here?"

The three of them looked at each other and then leaned forward and asked, "Master, do you have any other instructions?"

"No more instructions."

There was a hint of coldness in Lin Du's eyes, but then a murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

"Then the master asked us to come?"

The three looked at him in confusion.

Lin Du slowly turned his head.

"not good!"

The three men immediately felt the strong murderous intent and their faces changed drastically!

"die!"

Lin Du snorted coldly, then squeezed his palms, and the heads of the three men exploded, and three headless bodies fell to the ground.

Looking at the corpse covered in blood, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes. After all, it was the blood that had been secretly shed over the years.

After taking a deep breath, he waved his hand and the corpses began to burn by themselves, killing people and destroying the bodies.

After doing all this, his eyes finally calmed down a little.

When Lin Mou, Murong Xue and others were attacked, he never expected that his ancestor would be furious and want to conduct a thorough investigation, so he rushed to destroy the evidence.

After all, if he wanted to investigate, there wouldn't be many people to suspect, and he knew the methods of his grandfather and ancestors very well.

These three lackeys knew something and were killed anyway.

Anyway, he secretly cultivated more than just these three.

"Crack, snap!"

"Ok?"

However, when he was about to leave, he heard some applause from behind him.

When Lin Du heard this, his face changed drastically.

I saw a large figure appearing behind me. It was a middle-aged man with sharp features, a pair of eyes like an eagle, and a strong aura. He was a master.

The man looked at the burning body on the ground and said with a smile: "What a good trick."

Lin Du wanted to escape.

"Want to go?"

But at this time, three more people fell from the sky and trapped him in the middle.

At the same time, a formation plate floated in the sky. A large formation appeared and instantly enveloped Lindu.

These are the powerful people that Lu Luan felt.

Lin Du sent his secret ghost to pass the message to the Shi family, but he didn't expect that they would find this place and ambush them.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Lin Du immediately took out a defensive talisman and protected himself.

After doing all this, he asked coldly: "Who are you?"

The person in front of him was not wearing a mask or hiding his aura of cultivation. He was a member of the Shi family. Lin Du naturally knew him, but he could not reveal his identity now, so he could only pretend not to know him.

"Don't you know who I am? But I'm curious, who are you?"

The middle-aged man did not rush to attack, but asked with his hands behind his back.

“He’s just a casual cultivator.” Lin Du answered, looking around secretly, as if looking for a way out.

The man naturally knew it, but ignored it. Instead, he sat on a chair beside him, tapping his fingers with a playful look in his eyes.

He said, "You are not some casual cultivator. The Lin family hides their information so well. How did you know that boy had mastered the Heart-Splitting Art? And also gave birth to the Scarlet Flame Heart Fire. I originally thought that you must be from a branch of the Lin family, but now it seems that there is no tenth-level strongman of your age in the branch."

"Heart-Splitting Technique? Scarlet Flame Heart Fire?"

In a secret place outside the hut, Lu Luan was surprised after hearing the conversation.

"I didn't expect that Lin Mou could actually master the Heart-Splitting Technique."

This made him feel shaken.

The Heart-Splitting Art is a unique skill of the Lin family, but what makes it famous is not its power but the extremely harsh conditions for practicing it.

To practice this skill, one must temper the body with treasures of fire attribute and stimulate all potential. However, in this process, one must endure the pain of the blazing fire and finally undergo a transformation.

Originally, the Heart-Splitting Art was actually called the Fierce Heart Art. The reason it was called "Splitting" means that one has to endure the pain of having one's heart split.

"Strange, Lin Mou and I both have mixed spiritual roots, how did he master it? It is said that the Heart-Splitting Art can only be practiced with fire spiritual roots? And it also gave birth to the Red Flame Heart Fire!"

Lu Luan was puzzled. He would never have imagined that Lin Mou had to practice and master the technique by risking his life in the alchemy furnace.

The Heart-Splitting Technique was like the Lin family's signature dish, so he naturally knew the description of this technique.

"It seems that this attack is not aimed at Murong Xue, but at Lin Mou." He said silently in his heart.

He knew what it meant to master the Heart-Splitting Art. Even though Lin Mou's spiritual roots were not very good and he could not definitely build a foundation now, he had some hope with the help of the Heart-Fire Art. Moreover, he could reach the peak of the tenth level of Qi Refining without the help of elixirs.

Given the current relationship between the Shi and Lin families, such a person with great potential cannot be tolerated.

Lu Luan was truly impressed by the fact that Lin Mou was able to practice the Heart-Splitting Technique.

If nothing else, just enduring the burning flames is enough to inspire respect.

"I think about it, getting rid of Lin Mou seems to benefit only one person, right? Master Lindu."

After muttering for a while, the middle-aged man suddenly squinted his eyes and said.

In fact, Lin Du’s identity is easy to guess. After all, there are only a few people in the Lin family who have this level of cultivation and the ability to raise these hawks and dogs.

Who said that the Lin family only had so many people? If you remove the old, the young, and the weak, there are not many left.

Lin didn't say anything, and no one knew what was going on in his mind.

"Master Lindu, as long as you cooperate with my Shi family, I guarantee that you can become the head of the Lin family. How about it?"

The middle-aged man stood up and said.

"nonsense."

Lin Du smiled coldly, and then a talisman appeared in his palm. In an instant, a bolt of lightning as thick as his forearm was released towards the man.

But this was within a formation, and the attack was like an object falling into water, so the speed became slightly slower.

The middle-aged man dodged it easily.

"boom!"

This was a high-level talisman. When it hit the formation, although its power had been greatly reduced, it still caused the small house to tremble.

"A fight started?"

Lu Luan frowned.

The faces of the four people in the formation turned pale. They were the core of the formation. Being hit by such a powerful attack, although not enough to injure them, it still caused their blood to surge.

"court death!"

Seeing him take action, the four of them immediately joined forces to attack.

Stand in four positions respectively.

Moreover, his hands changed, and soon, a long sword composed of yellow light appeared above the formation.

The last sword fell.

Seeing this, Lin Du also pushed his arms upwards.

"boom!"

The golden sword fell above Lin Du's body.

Although the attack from these four people was powerful, Lin Du's talisman defense was very good and actually blocked the combined attack of the four of them!

Even so, he couldn't hold out for long.

The sword was extremely heavy. After a moment's stalemate, Lin Du's legs began to tremble slightly.

"Since you refuse to obey, I will kill you!"

The middle-aged man shouted softly, then circulated his true energy and pressed his palm downwards. The other three also did the same.

The sword hanging above his head suddenly became more solid.

Anyway, the Lin family will be annexed sooner or later, so let's kill one of their strong men first.

Lin Duli felt the pressure doubled. His knees were bent by the pressure and he finally knelt on one knee. The ground was sunken and cracks kept spreading around.

Even the talisman defense he was holding up began to break like ice.

This is enough to show the power of this sword.

"Do you want to save him?"

Outside, Lu Luan knew that Lin Du could not hold on for much longer. If he did not take action, he would die here.

After thinking for a while, he shook his head, then he stepped lightly and landed in the distance, saying silently: "You asked for this."

He had no intention of going to rescue them. After all, they were in the city. If the noise was too loud and alerted the City Lord's Mansion, it would be troublesome.

Anyway, this Lin Du has no effect or relationship with him.

"boom!"

After two breaths, Lin Du finally couldn't hold on any longer. The talisman floating above his head was suddenly torn apart, and finally the long sword in the sky fell down.

"what!"

With a scream, Lin Du's right arm was cut off immediately!

At this time, blood was spurting out from the broken arm.

Moreover, he was seriously injured and lay motionless on the ground, as if he had fainted.

The blood slowly spread in all directions.

Seeing this, the four of them smiled, and then the middle-aged man stretched out his hand, the formation disappeared, and a formation plate fell safely into his hand.

"Take him back for careful interrogation."

After saying this, he went out. After all, he had to leave quickly for fear of attracting the attention of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Yes."

One person responded and came forward.

"careful!"

Suddenly, someone nearby noticed something and immediately shouted in panic.

I saw that a talisman appeared in the left hand of Lin Du, who was lying on the ground. The talisman suddenly glowed the moment the man approached, and its power was extremely great!

Everyone's face changed and they stepped back immediately.

I just thought it would be some powerful attack, but nothing happened.
