LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 75
Chapter 83: The Hidden Lin Wudao
“My lord, you must stand up for our Heavenly God Sect!”
The androgynous-looking man had a rather unpleasant expression at the moment.
“To know I’m from the Heavenly God Sect and still dare to attack us—what utter arrogance!”
This was not just a slap in the face for the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground; it was also a slap in the man’s face.
“Shadow Guards, investigate this thoroughly! Who was responsible for this!”
In the shadows, someone vanished in an instant.
Abe Luoxue wanted to say something, but—
This esteemed gentleman didn’t take kindly to anyone opposing him.
So, she held her tongue.
However, it wasn’t long before the androgynous man became increasingly grim.
“What? You can’t find out who did it?”
The Shadow Guard nodded.
“Yes, my lord. We truly can’t find anything. It’s as if they died without a trace, like they just dropped dead!”
“Moreover, my lord, we lost the brother of that Yi Dai Mi Taro—the soul token has shattered too!”
The androgynous man’s expression turned dark as thunder.
Abe Luoxue was itching to say something.
But just then, Zhao Gou’s figure slowly came into her view.
“Th-that’s the culprit, my lord!” Abe Luoxue pointed at Zhao Gou, her expression frantic.
The androgynous man glanced at Zhao Gou, his brow furrowing slightly.
“Initial Golden Core, huh?”
Abe Luoxue nodded.
“Yes, my lord! Don’t be fooled by his Initial Golden Core level; his methods are strange. The deaths of our people are identical to his previous killings!”
The androgynous man raised a hand to interrupt Abe Luoxue and instead looked at Zhao Gou with a hint of appreciation.
“You killed those people?”
Zhao Gou glanced at the bloodstains on the ground and pondered for a moment.
“Should be, yes!”
The androgynous man squinted his eyes.
“So, you kill people and then come boldly before me? Is this a challenge?”
Zhao Gou quickly shook his head.
“No, no, no! My lord, you’ve misunderstood. I’m a healer; it’s my duty to treat the sick!”
This statement left the man utterly confused.
A healer? You healed them to the point there was nothing left!
Zhao Gou cleared his throat.
“Well, I’ve been working on some new medical techniques. Naturally, to develop techniques, I need to experiment on creatures. It’s just a few beasts that died; you wouldn’t really be concerned over those, would you, my lord?”
His words left the androgynous man flabbergasted.
This guy really knew how to talk!
After a long pause, the androgynous man tentatively asked, “Then why are you here to see me?”
Zhao Gou smiled brightly.
“My lord, I’m a healer—you know how valuable healers are, right?”
The androgynous man was left speechless.
Zhao Gou continued, “If you trust me, I can demonstrate my abilities, and you’ll see my worth!”
The androgynous man furrowed his brow, contemplating for a while.
Finally, he said, “Fine.”
At that moment, Zhao Gou channeled his spiritual energy, gradually sinking it into the man’s body.
Almost instantly, an internal injury of the man’s was healed.
This technique left the man dumbfounded.
“You… what kind of technique is this?”
Zhao Gou bowed.
“My lord, this is the power of a healer. No matter what illness you have, as long as my strength is sufficient, I can heal you!”
The androgynous man now looked at Zhao Gou as if he were a treasure.
“Haha, very good, you’re quite the competent healer!”
He then settled back into his chair.
“Now, tell me why you came to see me and what you desire!”
At this, Zhao Gou bowed again.
After that, he turned and bolted.
Abe Luoxue: “???”
The androgynous man: “???”
What does this mean?
Before anyone could register what just happened—
Boom!
The androgynous man glanced down in confusion.
Blood was gushing everywhere.
“Ugh…”
In an instant, the space twisted, and the world changed colors.
Meanwhile, Zhao Gou was in full-blown panicky escape mode.
Boom!
The androgynous man soared into the air, rapidly condensing a great hand of true essence, reaching out to grab Zhao Gou.
Zhao Gou realized he couldn’t escape.
He could only give a bright smile.
Though his expression was calm, he had resigned himself to death.
What Zhao Gou didn’t expect was that a streak of sword light suddenly blocked the giant hand.
The androgynous man was about to fly into a rage, but when he saw Ji Suying, his face paled instantly.
Without saying much, Ji Suying merely shot a glance at Zhao Gou.
Zhao Gou froze for a second, confused, then awkwardly bowed to Ji Suying.
Afterward, he turned to leave.
Seeing Zhao Gou leave, Ji Suying then turned her attention to the androgynous man.
“Do you have any objections?”
The man shook his head.
“Miss Ji, you jest!”
Ji Suying nodded.
“I’m here to inform you: don’t meddle in the grievances between the Heavenly God Sect and Qinglian Sect.”
The androgynous man hesitated.
“This is a matter concerning the Heavenly Extreme Sacred Ground!”
Ji Suying narrowed her eyes.
“I understand!”
The man quickly agreed.
In that moment, Ji Suying focused her gaze on Abe Guiche, who was still busy engaging in “exercise” with the beasts. With just a thought, he vanished entirely.
Upon witnessing this display of power, the androgynous man dared not speak.
……
At the same time, Liu Shunyi was still on the run.
Why, you ask?
Because he had no clue what was happening.
Suddenly, a group of people had appeared out of nowhere and were chasing after him like madmen!
“What the heck are these people? Have they lost their minds?!”
Liu Shunyi didn’t even know how many he had killed along the way.
The real issue was…
Just when one wave of pursuers was dispatched, another one appeared!
“Who the hell wants to kill me?!”
Just then, Liu Shunyi felt the Divine Dao Golden Scroll vibrating.
A name had dropped off while another name had popped up.
“Yi Dai Mi Taro (Red Grade)”
Liu Shunyi’s anger flared instantly.
“So it’s you who wants… huh!”
He initially thought that this so-called Yi Dai Mi Taro was out to get him.
But then he noticed another name on the Divine Dao Golden Scroll flashing continuously.
“Lin Wudao!”
Liu Shunyi was shocked.
“So these people are Lin Wudao’s lackeys!”
After the shock wore off, Liu Shunyi’s gaze turned icy.
Anyway, everyone on the Divine Dao Golden Scroll was at least Red Grade; Lin Wudao’s Purple Grade trash was definitely not worth sparing.
Liu Shunyi aimed his gourd in Lin Wudao’s direction.
Boom!
A colossal laser instantly obliterated everything in its path.
But soon, Liu Shunyi’s expression transformed into shock.
Lin Wudao did not reveal himself and did not strike back.
But in that fleeting second, Liu Shunyi suddenly sensed Lin Wudao’s name flicker with a hint of golden light.
“Damn it, this guy’s no rookie!”
Liu Shunyi’s heart trembled.
Yet, at the same time, he had a bad feeling.
