"Then I wonder why the Great Elder has summoned me here today?"
Luo Zheng nodded and asked.
"Let's drop this matter here. You may leave now, but remember that you must not reveal anything about what happened today. Otherwise, this elder will make you regret it!"
Lin Zhong shook his head and said with a sinister expression.
He had originally summoned Luo Zheng to recruit Luo Zheng and Ye Zhijian into his faction.
However, his son Lin Guan had been killed right in front of him, and he had not even been able to see how the other party had done it. His heart had turned cold and he no longer had any thoughts of recruiting them.
Therefore, he only wanted to get Luo Zheng to leave as soon as possible and find a way to investigate this matter.
Even if he knew tomorrow that he was no match for the culprit, he still had to find out who it was. Otherwise, if one day he didn't even know who he had offended and had his head chopped off without anyone knowing, wouldn't that be too sad?
"Lin Zheng, farewell first elder!"
Luo Zheng nodded and turned to leave.
"Who was it? Why did they kill my son Lin Guan? Since the culprit was able to do it without my knowledge, he must be at least at the Great Gan Saint stage or even at the perfect Gan Saint stage. Given Lin Guan's cultivation level, he should not have offended such a terrifying figure. Moreover, even if he had offended him, he would have been killed on the spot. Why wait until he was right in front of me? "
After Luo Zheng left, Lin Zhong racked his brains but came up with nothing. "Could it be that the culprit acted as a warning to me? But when have I ever offended such a person?"
Lin Zhong was someone who had lived for tens of millions of years and had experienced the era of the Chen and Lin clans. Who knew how many of his descendants had died?
Therefore, he did not feel too sad about Lin Guan's death.
As for hatred, it was even more impossible to bring it up. The other party was so powerful that he could not even bring it up.
The reason why he wanted to find out was because he wanted to know how to resolve it. Otherwise, it would be like the Grim Reaper's blade hanging over his head, and he would not be able to eat or sleep in peace.
"That's not right. When Lin Guan was killed earlier, Lin Zheng didn't react at all. He didn't show any shock or fear. Instead, it was as if he had expected this to happen and treated it as normal!"
After thinking for a moment, the corner of Lin Zhong's mouth suddenly twitched. "Could it be that Lin Guan's death has something to do with my forceful recruitment of Lin Zheng and Lin Jian? But in Lin Feitian's branch, there isn't even a single expert. Even Lin Zhen has been dead for more than a hundred thousand years … "
The more Lin Zhong thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. Although his premonition told him that Lin Guan's death must have something to do with Luo Zheng, he couldn't figure it out.
The more he thought about it, the more terrified he became. He decided that no matter what, he would never come into contact with Luo Zheng and Ye Zhijian again.
He would definitely hide as far away as possible!
"Brother Ye is really something. He actually killed Lin Guan in front of Lin Zhong. This way, he will more or less link it to me. I'm afraid that it will be troublesome in the future!"
Luo Zheng left the Lin Clan Mansion and smiled bitterly.
However, a Divine King couldn't be humiliated. Although Ye Zhijian wasn't a Divine King, his strength wasn't any weaker than one. Lin Guan actually called Ye Zhijian a piece of trash. He deserved to die.
After returning to the inn, Luo Zheng didn't discuss this matter with Ye Zhijian. After all, with their current strength, there was no need to say much about killing a Profound Transformation Realm expert.
As for Lin Feitian's question, Luo Zheng only said that he had rejected Lin Zhong and didn't explain further.
After that, no news came out from the Lin Clan. The death of the Lin Clan's First Elder's son, Lin Guan, was not a big deal. Not many people even knew about it.
A few days later, the ten days of rest had arrived. The competition for the Great Desolation Sect's examination quota also began once again.
Luo Zheng and the other two entered the competition venue once again. The tenth round of competition was also a random selection of opponents.
However, the 40 arenas had been removed at this time, and there was only one even larger arena.
After a few rounds of competition, the host announced, "The next round is Lin Jian against Lin Tianlang!"
"Haha, Lin Jian's luck is really bad. Originally, his strength was ranked last among the three hundred and twenty people who entered the tenth round. In the end, he drew Lin Tianlang!"
"Lin Tianlang against Lin Jian. To him, it's simply an effortless battle!"
"Lin Jian will lose this round for sure. I estimate that he won't last more than three moves under Lin Tianlang's hands!"
Hearing the matchup, many people laughed.
The Lin Clan's warriors were even more sneering.
In the past, it was extremely difficult for the branch family members to enter the fifth round. However, this time, two branch family members entered the tenth round. This made the Lin Clan's people very unhappy.
Among them, Luo Zheng's strength was now publicly recognized as second only to Lin Tianhong.
Everyone believed that as long as he did not meet Lin Tianhong in advance, the chances of him obtaining a spot were extremely high.
Besides Lin Tianhong and Luo Zheng, Lin Tianlang was publicly recognized as the third strongest person. As long as Luo Zheng and Lin Tianhong met, he would also have an extremely high chance of obtaining a spot.
Hence, when they saw that the two opponents were Lin Tianlang and Ye Zhijian, everyone believed that Lin Tianlang would definitely win this round.
Whoosh!
A figure flew up and landed on the arena. It was a young man in gray armor.
This youth's face was cold and his entire body exuded a savage aura. The armor on his body was shaped like a gray iron wolf. Even the helmet was in the shape of a wolf's head and was filled with fangs!
It was Lin Tianlang!
"Brother Jian, you must be careful this time. Lin Tianlang is also a mutant. Before his mother gave birth to him, she carried him for thirty-six years. When she gave birth to him, there was a strange gray metal in the shape of a wolf's head. Later on, he was named Sky Wolf, and the piece of metal that was born with him was forged into the Sky Wolf Battle Armor that he is wearing by an unknown refiner! "
Lin Feitian's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly said to Ye Zhijian, "It's said that the Tianlang Armor is a middle-grade divine artifact. Because it was born from the same womb with Lin Tianlang, he can unleash the full power of the armor even if he's only at the Great Undead Realm!"
"It's actually born from the same womb with a piece of Tianlang Mysterious Iron. Unfortunately, this piece of Tianlang Mysterious Iron is a high-grade divine material. Although it's not as good as the Mysterious Sun Gold, it can still be refined into a high-grade divine artifact. It's a pity that it was refined into a middle-grade divine artifact."
Luo Zheng also stared at Lin Tianlang on the stage, revealing a curious expression. He thought to himself, This person is likely to be the reincarnation of a former expert. This is the Great Silence.
This plane is truly strange. How can there be all kinds of monsters? Any random world can produce several supreme geniuses and even geniuses. "
