Chapter 235
“Back off...”
Lin Yuan waved his sleeves lightly and put away the soul shadow of the iron guardian in front of him.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the news, Lin Yuan used the Iron Guardian to double-check after interrogating the Bird Guardian in detail. The contents described by the two are exactly the same, and the authenticity of the information has been confirmed.
If nothing unexpected happens, all the information about Lin Yuan has been reported to Zhongzhou by Protector Xuan.
"Time is running out, we need to speed up some things." Lin Yuan put his right hand lightly on his eyebrows, whispering with a bit of contemplation, "With the distance from the Black Corner Territory to Zhongzhou, even if the Soul Palace responds quickly, It should take three months.”
“Master, how should we deal with it next?” Qinglin stared at Lin Yuan worriedly.
My son is being targeted by the Soul Palace. This is really a terrible thing.
As for the terrifying strength of the behemoth in the Soul Palace, Lin Yuan once briefly mentioned that its unfathomable extent is definitely beyond what they can currently contend with.
At this moment, her desire for strength increased again.
"If I could be stronger..." Looking at Lin Yuan's frown, Qinglin bit his lips, feeling a little slack due to his current Douhuang-level strength and Douzong-level combat power. At this moment, Dissipate completely.
No matter how high your talent is, you cannot slack off until you realize it into your strength.
Seeing this, Lin Yuan smiled softly, gently stroked the top of Qing Lin's hair, and said calmly: "Qing'er, there is no need to worry too much. What the Soul Palace values is alchemy, even if I am really caught by them They won't hurt me, but will treat me with courtesy."
He opened the door and walked out, "Let's go to Xunxuan Dharma. I need to confirm the news from him. The exact time in order to plan the next action..."
Simply waiting for the people from the Soul Palace to arrive is not Lin Yuan's style. He has to take the initiative to deal with it.
The specific response strategy depends on how much time is left...
When he heard Lin Yuan's words, Qinglin's worries eased slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Master Come with me, I have discovered the hiding place of Protector Mingxuan, in the underground palace of Ghost Valley..."
Soon, two figures flew out from the inner courtyard and headed towards the direction of Ghost Valley.
——
Half a day later.
Deep in the Black Corner Territory, beneath the Ghost Valley, a majestic underground palace stands majestically, its light flickering.
Lin Yuan crossed his legs and sat lazily on the throne in the hall. Qinglin and the Sky Demon Puppet were arranged on the left and right. Below, an illusory black soul knelt down, it was the frightened Protector Xuan.
"So, you reported my information to Zhongzhou twenty days ago?" Lin Yuan asked slowly.
Hearing this, Protector Xuan's body trembled slightly, and there was an unconcealable tremor in his voice: "Yes... it is the villain who is ignorant and mistakenly reported the news of your Excellency. Please spare my life, as long as I am willing to do anything to survive..."
While speaking, Protector Xuan carefully glanced at the demon puppet, his eyes full of fear.
When his strongest attack was casually shot away by the puppet, he understood that all resistance was in vain before its absolute strength.
Afterwards, the invisible flame that burned his soul eliminated all his resistance.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes and meditated, tapping the armrest of the throne with his slender fingers, making a "ta-da" sound that echoed in the quiet hall, like the bell of judgment, each sound struck the throne. The protector's tense nerves made him feel uneasy.
After a moment, the knocking sound stopped suddenly, and Lin Yuan opened his eyes, his eyes like torches, looking directly at Protector Xuan below.
"Originally you deserve to die, but thinking that you might still be useful, I gave you a chance to atone for your sins - deliver a false message to Zhongzhou for me. Well... let's talk about Lin Yuan Has left the Black Corner Territory and gone to the Northern Territory of Zhongzhou ”
Hearing this, Protector Xuan's face lit up with joy, and he kowtowed quickly and said, "Thank you, sir. I will send you a message immediately."
After saying that, he immediately stood up and began to prepare the letter.
"He who knows the current affairs is a hero!" Lin Yuan nodded, chuckled, and said meaningfully: "Remember, you only have one life, so you must cherish it! Don't play tricks, I am right The familiarity of the Soul Palace is no less than yours..."
Hearing this, Protector Xuan trembled and quickly bowed and said, "Yes, I will keep this in mind."
Lin. Yuan shook his hand casually and said indifferently: "If you want to survive, if you want to live, do what you should do."
Soon, Protector Xuan followed Lin Yuan's request and asked Zhongzhou A false message was delivered.
Afterwards, Lin Yuan treated Protector Xuan like he did to them, and burned Protector Xuan until he only had one breath left, and then sealed him into a dark soul box. In addition, he also captured the souls that Protector Xuan had been collecting for several years.
Qing Lin looked at Lin Yuan worriedly and said doubtfully: "Master, can such false news really prevent people from the Soul Palace from coming?"
"No!" Lin Yuan Shaked his head.
He was sitting up and said in a deep voice: "Even if the Soul Palace believes this false news, the news is twenty days late after all. In twenty days, no matter how inefficient the Soul Palace is, I’m afraid people have already been sent to capture me.”
"Besides, more than ten days ago, Protector Xuan also reported the fact that I refined the eighth-grade elixir. How much they value me..."
Speaking of this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel a little helpless. .
This protector is so dedicated that he continues to update the information after passing it on, which is very troublesome...
A seventh-level alchemist under the age of twenty with no background, the soul The palace may still be able to slow down, but for an eighth-level alchemist under the age of twenty, Lin Yuan would not find it strange that the Soul Palace directly sent Tianzun to arrest him.
The status and preciousness of the seventh-grade master and the eighth-grade grandmaster are absolutely worlds apart.
"Then...why did Young Master spread this false news?" Qing Lin asked doubtfully.
“Insurance and confusion.” Lin Yuan gently rubbed his forehead and explained: “Prevent the Soul Palace from continuing to pay attention here after sending out the first wave of people and investing unnecessary attention in Canaan College. ..."
If the Soul Palace neither catches him nor knows where he is, they might turn their attention to Canaan College.
Once this happens, they may discover the magma sea or even... the Ancient Emperor's Cave.
Lin Yuan could not accept this situation.
The Ancient Emperor's Cave must not be exposed prematurely. Although the chance of this happening was extremely small, he must completely eliminate this possibility.
"Qing'er, let's go back." Lin Yuan slowly stood up from his throne and glanced at the direction of the college. "It's a very important matter. I need to inform the little doctor fairy and Xiyue, and let's discuss this together. The next step..."
"Yes, Master!" Qinglin nodded.
After that, the two walked out of the underground palace. Lin Yuan hugged Qinglin, stretched out the "Wings of the Sky Phoenix", and galloped out towards the inner courtyard like a silver stream of light.
——
Inner courtyard, medicine garden.
It was already late at night when Lin Yuan came back.
He summoned Medusa, who was digesting the medicinal materials, and the little medical fairy who was practicing the Soul Art, and explained the situation to them in detail. There is no need for too many riddles among companions. Only by sharing information can they avoid stupid mistakes.
After listening to Lin Yuan’s narration, Medusa, who had been lazily leaning on the nanmu chair, unconsciously sat upright and her tone became a little more solemn. : "So, we are going to face the Soul Palace later?"
In and out of words, she has regarded herself and Lin Yuan as one, and this is Queen Medusa who is devoted to others.
However, she is still very wary of the Soul Palace.
In the previous battle in the Jiama Empire, they had to fight hard just to deal with two low-level personnel of the Soul Palace, but now...
The Soul Palace has its sights on Lin Yuan himself. In Medusa's view, this was already an irreconcilable conflict. A fierce light flashed in her eyes, and a somewhat decisive expression appeared on her face.
The Little Medical Fairy and Qinglin on the side also showed the same expression as Medusa.
A tragic atmosphere of "the wind is rustling and the water is cold, and the heroes are gone and never come back" ripples in the hall of the medicine garden, but...
"Haha—— ”
A clear laughter broke the serious atmosphere.
Looking at the three people with tragic faces, Lin Yuan waved his hands casually and chuckled: "Okay, okay, things are far from as bad as you think."
See Lin Yuan looked confident, and the three of them unconsciously felt a little calmer.
Taking a deep breath, Medusa looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Lin Yuan, stop showing off and tell me what you really think?"
Although Lin Yuan told them a lot of information, after all, It is information that belongs to people who are very close to the Thunder Clan and may know it.
Lin Yuan has not told anyone the information that belongs exclusively to the traveler’s perspective.
Of course, he does not intend to tell anyone, even the people closest to him. This is a secret that belongs only to him. It is his most original secret, and it is what he relies on to get to where he is today. His real 'golden finger'.
Lack of the advantage of foresight, the three women are naturally prone to care and chaos...
Giving everyone a comforting look, Lin Yuan straightened his expression and said in deep thought: "The solution to this matter There are two ways of thinking: one is to resist the Soul Palace; the other is to obey the Soul Palace."
"Let’s talk about the first one, resist the Soul Palace."
"This method is very simple. I'm going to join a force that is strong enough to fight against the Soul Palace, Danta, and ancient clans are all optional."
After a pause, Lin Yuan showed a playful smile on his face and chuckled: "Hehe. , With my conditions, it is easy to become a son-in-law in an imperial clan. It should be no problem to marry a woman with a seventh-grade blood. It is also possible to marry a woman with an eighth-grade blood. "
The words just fell, as if. The north wind passed by, and the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became cold and solemn.
Medusa and the Little Medical Fairy both cast their cold gazes on Lin Yuan at the same time. Qinglin also looked at Lin Yuan with "admiration", daring to mention "bringing into the family" the ancient ancestral lineage, this is not ordinary courage...
Although he knew that Lin Yuan was trying to ease the atmosphere, looking at this smiling face, Medusa still had the urge to punch him.
Take a deep breath and calm your mind.
"To throw out this method first, does it mean that this is not your favorite choice?" A glimmer of wisdom flashed in her eyes, Medusa said thoughtfully: "Do you want to cooperate with Soul Palace? Soul Palace's style ...You are trying to steal the skin of a tiger."
"You are indeed my queen!" Lin Yuan glanced at Medusa appreciatively, nodded, and said frankly: "I am indeed willing to cooperate."
The Soul Palace comes to the door, which is both a crisis and an opportunity.
If you can make good use of this opportunity, the road ahead will be much smoother.
From several guardians, Lin Yuan learned something. The reason why the Soul Palace has so many die-hard loyalists is not just the rule of terror. It is an extremely excellent platform. There have been ruthless Punishment, but merit is also a real reward.
Moreover, in the Soul Palace system, there are all kinds of things. Many things that are not circulated in the outside system are circulated in the Soul Palace system.
As long as you work hard enough, you can even obtain soul skills, heavenly skills, and heavenly fighting skills.
He was very greedy for Lin Yuan and the source of souls in the Soul Palace.
Without the charming ancestors passing on the skills, it would be insanely difficult for Lin Yuan to achieve the imperial realm. The soul of the sky tomb and the source of massive souls are the only two methods he knows at present, and he must make plans in advance.
The probability of success in stealing is always higher than rushing in recklessly.
Hearing this, Medusa frowned slightly and looked deeply at Lin Yuan, "The reputation of the Soul Palace, and cooperation with them, I'm afraid... that's all. You have made this decision, and I believe that you have made a good balance. , I won’t say much.”
Looking at Medusa who was a little worried but still firmly supporting him, the corners of Lin Yuan’s mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly.
This feeling of being unconditionally trusted is so good!
“Thank you for your understanding!” Lin Yuan looked at Medusa and his voice became much gentler.
Hearing this, Medusa waved her hand casually, "As long as you know it from the bottom of your heart."
"Don't worry, queen, I am sensible about this matter." Lin Yuan chuckled lightly, His eyes were a little darker, "What I want to pursue is cooperation, not unconditional compromise. What I want to do is to use the Soul Palace to achieve some of my own goals, not to sacrifice my life for them."
The Soul Palace The hierarchy is strict and there are many strong people.
As long as the strength, identity, and status are achieved, the corresponding resources can be mobilized. This kind of strength is completely respected, which is why Lin Yuan chose the Soul Palace.
If he joins other "decent" forces, it will be a conflict of relationships. He needs to make contributions in order to gain the support of others and to be able to smoothly deploy the manpower in the force. This kind of thing, Lin Yuan also Too lazy to put any thought into it.
It just so happens that he also lacks a useful black glove identity. If the Soul Palace comes to recruit him, it can just make up for it.
“What can we do?” The little medical fairy’s voice suddenly sounded from the side: “It’s probably not your style to wait for the people from the Soul Palace to arrive.”
“Well! Lin Yuan nodded and said seriously: "In the worst case scenario, it will take about two months for the people from the Soul Palace to get here. During these two months, we must be ready to go to Zhongzhou." , because we may divide our troops into two groups."
"Our troops will divide into two groups?" The three of them looked at Lin Yuan in confusion.
Lin Yuan pondered for a moment and explained: "Whether it is active or passive, I will go to the Soul Palace. I hope that you, as my strength and my trump card, will not appear in the sight of the Soul Palace. So we have to be separated for a while."
After a pause, he looked at the little medical fairy and said seriously: "And before I leave, little medical fairy, I want to help you condense the poison elixir..."
I missed a paragraph when I posted it, but it should be there now
