Lin Xiu was burning with anxiety because he was worried about the safety of his two wives, so he rushed as fast as he could.
Many of the experts in the Tang Dynasty had lost their combat power due to the soul storm that Lin Xiu had unleashed.
As for the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, the reason why he chose to expose his identity at this moment was because if the situation continued, Lin Xiu might really destroy the foundation that he had been operating for tens of thousands of years. He absolutely could not allow such a situation to happen, so he had no choice but to face Lin Xiu head-on.
Soon, Lin Xiu arrived at the capital of the Tang Dynasty. He searched with his soul and locked onto the figures of his two wives.
The two of them were talking and laughing as they looked around a shop. There were many items in their hands and it seemed that they had a good harvest today.
Seeing Lin Xiu's arrival, a look of surprise flashed across the faces of the two women and they directly pulled him into the shop.
However, how could Lin Xiu have that kind of leisurely and carefree mood at this moment? He directly explained the general situation to his two wives, but they did not take it to heart at all. To them, their husband was already worthy of being the overlord of the continent. Even if there was something fishy in the Tang Dynasty, Lin Xiu would not be worried at all.
At this time, Lin Xiu noticed that there was a sudden distortion in the shop. The change in light was extremely subtle and if it wasn't for Lin Xiu's terrifying realm, he would not have discovered this situation.
The shop assistant who was originally guarding the shop suddenly raised a sinister smile on his face and then walked towards Lin Xiu.
"Sir, since the two madams have already said that nothing will happen, it's better for you to wait at the side," the middle-aged man said. As the shop assistant's back was facing Huo Ling'er and the others, he looked extremely presumptuous and even winked at Lin Xiu.
At this moment, Lin Xiu was very angry in his heart. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that there was a big problem with the power source in front of him. Maybe it was the mastermind who had been hiding in the dark all along. Now that the other party was here and even threatened his two wives, he had no choice but to swallow his anger.
He didn't expect that there were still hidden dragons and crouching tigers in this small Tang Dynasty after he had dealt with the matter of the Netherworld Palace.
No matter how worried Lin Xiu was, it was useless. He could only quietly wait for the situation to develop. Since the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty did not immediately launch an attack, it meant that the other party must have something to ask of him. Lin Xiu also wanted to see what kind of ambition this person had.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Huo Ling'er suddenly turned around and pulled Yang Yingxi's hand. She quickly flashed behind Lin Xiu and patted her chest in relief with a bewildered look on her face.
The shop assistant obviously didn't expect this to happen. He looked at Huo Ling'er suspiciously, then began to laugh.
"I never thought that this young lady would actually have such an intelligent mind. It's truly rare and precious. Since that's the case, I won't hide it anymore." After saying this, the shopkeeper's body suddenly underwent a huge change. His body gradually became sturdy, and he had a thick beard.
Lin Xiu looked at the other party's change and didn't say anything. If the other party was really the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, it meant that he had lived for tens of thousands of years, even comparable to the Sea God.
Huo Ling'er smiled at Lin Xiu and finally said at this time, "Actually, when you said that to us just now, I already felt that something was wrong, but if I rashly walked towards you, I was afraid that something would happen, so I had to put on a good show."
Yang Yingxi was also bewildered at this moment. Looking at her good sister, she felt a little comforted in her heart. Fortunately, Huo Ling'er was also very talented in cultivation, so she could help Lin Xiu.
And if it wasn't for Huo Ling'er, maybe the two of them would have fallen this time and would even be used by the mysterious expert as a means to blackmail Lin Xiu.
"Who the hell are you?" Lin Xiu frowned. He could feel that the middle-aged man in front of him was extremely not someone to be trifled with, and the yuan qi fluctuations around his body were extremely strong, which made him feel a little afraid.
The middle-aged man just smiled indifferently, then didn't say much and lifted his legs to walk out of the shop. Seeing this, Lin Xiu also followed behind, but he still whispered to Huo Ling'er and the others to hurry back to the inn.
Since the mastermind had appeared, as long as Lin Xiu was in front of him, no matter how strong he was, he wouldn't be able to do anything. After all, Lin Xiu's reputation as the overlord of the Immortal Martial Continent was not just for show.
The mysterious middle-aged man led Lin Xiu all the way to the Tang Dynasty's palace. As for the guards at the door, it seemed like they didn't notice them at all. Just like that, the two of them went all the way to the deepest part of the palace without any obstruction.
"Little friend, you should have just risen recently. A few years ago, I felt that there were two very strong energy fluctuations in the Immortal Martial Continent. I think that someone must have successfully entered that realm." The middle-aged man turned back and smiled at Lin Xiu, then pointed to the table and chair in front of him, indicating that Lin Xiu should sit down with him.
Lin Xiu was also a skilled and bold person, he didn't have any scruples at all and directly sat down. Of course, he didn't really take what the other party said to heart because from the words of the red dragon, he already knew some details about the person in front of him. The person was originally the sect master of an extremely evil sect in the Immortal Martial Continent, it was impossible for him to be as gentle as he was now.
The person pointed to a deep well at the side, then said to Lin Xiu, "On the path of cultivation, those who reach first come first. I've been planning for tens of thousands of years, but I didn't succeed. I didn't expect that you would actually succeed so smoothly."
"In fact, all these years, although the Tang Dynasty couldn't produce extremely strong warriors, under my protection, didn't the people live very well? Why must you be so fixated on me? "
The person's words seemed very polite, but he had already expressed enough anger. If Lin Xiu didn't suddenly appear and interrupt his plan, he believed that it wouldn't take long for this person to follow some of the arrangements that Lin Xiu had made and use a shortcut to achieve a breakthrough.
And Lin Xiu also noticed that the deep well that the person was pointing at looked very strange. Even Lin Xiu couldn't see the slightest clue, but since the person was fearless and brought him here, it meant that he definitely had something to rely on. Lin Xiu didn't dare to be the slightest bit careless.
"What's the difference between what you're doing and what the Nether Palace did? Both of you want to keep the living beings on the continent in captivity. Then, for your own selfish interests, you'll sacrifice everyone's ancestors. Since that's the case, even if you make a breakthrough, will you really be happy when there's no one standing by your side?" Lin Xiu looked into the person's eyes and said without any scruples. Towards this kind of expert, he couldn't wait to immediately kill him.
"What do you know? Back then, if I hadn't brought these people here, they would have been turned into a pile of bones under the attacks of those so-called righteous sects. Their lives were given by me, so why can't they give up their lives for my breakthrough? " At this moment, the middle-aged man finally couldn't maintain his elegant demeanor and didn't comment on Lin Xiu's words.
Although Lin Xiu didn't know what exactly happened back then, he knew that the so-called righteous sects wouldn't kill ordinary people for no reason. At this moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind, but he still wanted to hear what this mysterious man had to say.
"Although my sect belonged to the demon path sect back then, everything we did was for our own breakthroughs. As for those so-called righteous sects, in order to make a name for themselves, they kept staring at us all day long. But what was the result in the end? In fact, we are just jackals of the same tribe. It's just that you guys were able to gain the support of ordinary people in the name of justice." The mysterious man took out a teapot out of nowhere and poured himself a cup.
Lin Xiu frowned, then looked at the middle-aged man in front of him and said to him, "Even if those righteous sects back then were all inferior to me, no matter what, they wouldn't lay their hands on ordinary people. I'm not willing to believe your words at all."
The mysterious middle-aged man saw Lin Xiu's expression and after a moment of silence, he finally said, "Then what if I tell you that the method of sacrificing these people to obtain a breakthrough came from the so-called righteous sects?"
