"Let me say it. Alright …" As he spoke, a strange smile appeared on Linlong's face. "I also wanted to take out the treasures and share them with everyone. However, Ranran and I didn't get anything from the ruins."
"How is that possible?"
"If you didn't get anything, why did the ruins suddenly sink?"
"You guys must have fought to the death because you saw the treasures. How could there be no treasures at all?"
Linlong's words immediately caused an uproar. They were all in disbelief.
"That's the truth. As for the ruins sinking, it might be because our entry broke the balance of the runic array, causing the ruins to self-destruct and sink in the end," Linlong said.
Since there was no evidence now, he could say whatever he wanted. As for Su Ranran, she wouldn't object or doubt him no matter what.
"Do you dare to stand out and let everyone see it?" someone said at that moment.
"Why not?" As he spoke, Linlong took a few steps forward. His entire body was exposed to everyone's sight.
"Elder Fang, please come forward and search," someone in the crowd suggested.
This suggestion received the approval of most people. Fang Feiyang immediately walked forward and said to Linlong, "Little Brother Lin, I'm sorry."
"It's fine," Linlong said calmly.
Then, Fang Feiyang began to search Linlong seriously. However, he didn't find anything.
"Elder Fang, maybe that ring is the treasure," someone with sharp eyes suddenly said.
Elder Fang shook his head. "This isn't a treasure. It's just an ordinary ring. If you don't believe me, you can ask a few more people to take a look."
A few clan leaders went forward and looked at it seriously. They also shook their heads.
At the same time, there was also a female elder searching on Su Ranran's side. However, they also didn't find anything.
Seeing this situation, those who wanted a share of the loot all shook their heads and sighed. They originally thought that they would get a share of the good stuff. Who would have thought that they would get nothing at all?
"Since things have come to this, let's end it here." Hearing Fang Feiyang's words, the crowd could only leave helplessly.
Of course, many people were unwilling to leave. They still wanted to search for the corpses of their own people in the mountain.
Linlong let them be.
After that, Lin Long followed Lin Qingshan and the rest of the Lin Clan back to the Lin Clan. As for Su Ranran, she stayed with her family. The two of them parted ways just like that.
Before they parted, Su Ranran subconsciously looked in Lin Long's direction, only to see Lin Long looking at her with a slight smile on his face. She was immediately overjoyed, and a sweet smile surfaced on her face.
"Big sister, what are you laughing at?" Su Qingqing's voice suddenly rang in Su Ranran's ears.
"No … nothing," Su Ranran denied guiltily.
"Hmph, I saw it." Su Qingqing refused to budge.
"Qing Qing, if you speak nonsense again, I won't protect you in the future." Su Ranran immediately put on a stern face.
Su Qingqing stuck out her tongue when she saw her older sister's anger. She didn't dare to speak anymore.
However, she kept thinking about what had just happened, because she clearly saw her sister smiling at Linlong.
There must be something fishy going on between the two of them. Su Qingqing was even more certain of her suspicions.
On the way back, the curious Lin Qingshan couldn't help but ask Lin Long if he really didn't obtain any treasures.
Lin Long originally wanted to tell Lin Qingshan that he had obtained some treasures, but after thinking about it, he decided not to. After all, these were not ordinary things, and he couldn't easily share them with the family. In that case, it was better to deny it directly, so that no one would have any doubts.
Hearing Lin Long's words, Lin Qingshan naturally felt that it was a pity. He originally thought that Lin Long would be able to gain something from the ruins, but he didn't expect to not only offend someone, but also gain nothing.
However, Lin Qingshan soon felt relieved. After all, this trip to the ruins did not erase the future of the Lin Clan, Lin Long. Otherwise, it would be too late for regrets.
After returning to his own courtyard, Lin Long immediately went to Xiao Die's room. He heard from Lin Qingshan that Xiao Die had fallen ill because he didn't show up for a few days.
This was also why he didn't see Xiao Die just now.
After pushing the door open, Lin Long saw Xiao Die lying on the bed with a towel on her head. Beside the bed sat a maid named Xiaoxi.
Obviously, she was sent by Lin Qingshan to take care of Xiao Die.
Seeing Lin Long come in, Xiaoxi hurriedly stood up in surprise and joy. "Young Master Lin Long, you're back."
Lin Long nodded and then asked, "How is Xiao Die?"
"Xiao Die has been infected with a cold for three days, and she has been unconscious these days. Although she has taken the medicine prescribed by the doctor, the effect is not obvious." Xiaoxi said.
"Well, I see. You can go out first." Lin Long said.
After Xiaoxi went out, Lin Long came to Xiao Die, took away the towel, and reached out to touch it. It was really hot.
At that moment, he quickly took out a pill and fed it to Little Butterfly. This was a top-grade healing pill that he specially used to treat injuries, but it was also very effective for colds. Although it seemed like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, because it was Little Butterfly, Linlong did not feel that it was a pity at all.
After giving it to Xiao Die, Lin Long sat inside for a while, and when he found that Xiao Die was obviously better, he came out.
After coming out, he said to Xiaoxi who had been waiting outside the door, "Xiaoxi, take care of Xiao Die. If anything happens, come to my room and call me."
"Yes, Young Master." Xiaoxi said respectfully.
Linlong, on the other hand, returned to his room.
Knowing that Xiao Die was basically fine, Lin Long didn't have anything to worry about, so when he returned to his room, he took out the spoils of war he obtained in the ruins.
The items were placed in the ring on his finger. Because this was a rune space technique, and it was very well hidden, only a powerful runemaster would be able to discover its mystery. Therefore, Fang Feiyang and the others did not find anything special about it at all.
Lin Long took out the things inside the ring. There were a total of four books, a Rune Sword, a Rune Sealing Sword, and a Spiritual Bead.
The four books were "Heavenly Chaos Dao Technique", "Body Technique", "Beast Taming Technique", and "Curse Technique".
The Rune Sword and "Heavenly Chaos Dao Technique" were meant for Su Ranran, but because Su Ranran couldn't hide these things today, he kept them for her.
As for the "Body Technique", "Beast Taming Technique", "Curse Technique", the Spiritual Bead, the Rune Sealing Sword, and the Rune Space Ring on his hand, they were his spoils of war.
Looking at these things, Lin Long couldn't help but secretly nod. He didn't expect to obtain so many things just by entering the ruins. These things were of great use to him.
