"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, the leader was sent flying by Lin Long's palm.
The other three naturally knew how strong their boss was. Seeing Lin Long send their boss flying with a single palm strike, they knew that Lin Long was definitely much stronger than them. Immediately, expressions of shock appeared on their faces.
"Who are you?" One of them could not help but ask.
"It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you will return disappointed today," Lin Long said with a faint smile.
At this moment, the leader also stood up with the help of the woman.
"He is powerful … Let's go!" The leader immediately said as he stood up.
Although they were unwilling, what could they do when Lin Long was so powerful?
Therefore, the group of four could only turn around and leave.
They were naturally afraid that Lin Long would not let them go. To their relief, Lin Long did not have any intention of chasing after them.
When the Martial Overlord beside Qian Yu saw Lin Long's expression, he could not help but ask anxiously, "Sir, can you keep them here?"
In his opinion, even if Lin Long did not keep the four of them, it would be good to keep one of them.
Unexpectedly, Qian Yu directly waved his hand and said, "Mo Ran, there is no need. They are just hired by Fang Chen. Even if we kill them, Fang Chen will send someone else."
This Qian Yu is really magnanimous, Lin Long thought.
"Qian Yu thanks Sir!" Then, Qian Yu cupped his hands and said to Lin Long.
"You are welcome." Lin Long smiled indifferently.
"May I know your name?" Qian Yu asked.
"My surname is Lin and my name is Long," Lin Long replied.
"Sir Lin, you have such strength at such a young age. It is really admirable!" At this moment, Mo Ran could not help but say.
He could see that Lin Long definitely had the strength of an advanced Martial Overlord.
Not only Mo Ran, but the other martial artists also looked at Lin Long with admiration.
As martial artists, they knew how terrifying it was to have such strength at such a young age.
"Just so-so," Lin Long replied.
"May I know why you helped us?" At this moment, Qian Yu asked directly.
He did not think that Lin Long was doing it out of kindness. After all, Lin Long was not weak and no one would help him out of kindness.
"It's very simple. I want you to take me to the City Lord of Flourishing Water City," Linlong said straightforwardly.
"Young Master Lin, are you the City Lord's enemy?" Qian Yu couldn't help but be shocked. "If that's the case, then forgive me for not being able to take you to see the City Lord."
"I'm not his enemy. I just want to ask him something." Linlong shook his head.
"If that's the case, maybe I can introduce you to him. But what does Young Master Lin want to ask?" Qian Yu asked.
"All you need to do is tell him that I want to ask him about the Cat Shadow Jade Pendant, and he'll see me," said Linlong with a smile.
The Cat Shadow Jade Pendant referred to the jade pendant that Linlong had obtained from You Tian. Because there was an image of a cat on the back of the jade pendant, and the words "Cat Shadow" at the bottom, it was called the Cat Shadow Jade Pendant.
According to what You Tian had said, the other jade pendants also had the same image, as well as those two small words.
"Cat Shadow Jade Pendant?" Qian Yu was stunned. Clearly, he didn't know what it was.
The Martial Tyrant beside him, Mo Ran, exclaimed, "Young Master Lin, you have the Cat Shadow Jade Pendant?"
"That's right." Linlong nodded. As he spoke, he took out the jade pendant.
After taking a closer look and confirming that it really was the Cat Shadow Jade Pendant, Mo Ran's expression became even more shocked.
At the same time, he could see Linlong's conceit. If he wasn't conceited, why would he take out such a treasure so casually?
"Mo Ran, what does this jade pendant represent?" Qian Yu asked again.
Mo Ran immediately explained to Qian Yu.
When he heard that this jade pendant might have something to do with the spiritual fire, Qian Yu, who had remained calm even when facing powerful enemies, couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. He knew the value of this item.
"Since it's this item, young master, please come with us," he said after recovering from his surprise.
Just like that, Linlong followed Qian Yu and the others to Flowing Water City.
Because Qian Yu was an ordinary person, Linlong could only slow down. Fortunately, they weren't far from Flowing Water City.
After about a day, the group finally arrived at Flowing Water City.
Upon entering Flowing Water City, Linlong saw an endless stream of carriages and people coming and going.
Flowing Water City's prosperity was actually comparable to the large cities of the Central Region. Linlong couldn't help feeling a bit shocked at that scene.
With Qian Yu leading the way, Linlong quickly arrived at the center of Flowing Water City. The place appeared to be heavily guarded, with guards walking around at a short distance.
As Linlong followed Qian Yu, he wasn't questioned.
After passing through a training field, they came to a large hall. Above the hall were three strong and powerful words, "Prosperous Water City".
On the two sides stood dozens of guards with strength above the Mid Martial Lord realm.
Clearly, this was the center of Flowing Water City.
After entering the palace, Qian Yu had Linlong and Mo Ran wait inside while he quickly walked inside.
Only after the time it took to brew a cup of tea did Qian Yu return.
"Young master Lin, we've come at a good time. The city master is here," Mo Ran said joyfully.
"Oh? What did he say?" Linlong said calmly.
"He said to have you wait for a moment. He'll be here soon," Mo Ran said.
"Oh." Linlong nodded.
Soon, a square-faced, stern-looking middle-aged man walked into the palace from behind.
Mo Ran quickly stood up and said, "City master, this is the young master Lin I mentioned."
Clearly, he was the city master of Flowing Water City, Yu Yuan.
"Mm." Yu Yuan nodded, then said, "Qian Yu, you two can leave first."
Qian Yu quickly left with Mo Ran.
After Qian Yu and Mo Ran left, Yu Yuan said, "Young master Lin, can I take a look at your Cat's Shadow Jade Pendant?"
"Of course." Linlong nodded.
As he spoke, Linlong took out his Cat's Shadow Jade Pendant.
Yu Yuan's eyes immediately lit up when he saw the cat's shadow jade pendant in Lin Long's hand. He even took two steps forward as if he was going to take the jade pendant from Lin Long's hand.
Linlong, on the other hand, quietly retracted his hand.
Yu Yuan's expression immediately turned a bit ugly. Then, his face darkened. "Young master Lin, are you afraid that I'll take it away?"
"I don't know anything about the city master. It's better to be on guard." Linlong smiled indifferently.
Yu Yuan did not dwell on this issue. Instead, he asked, "Young master Lin, I heard that you have something to ask me. Is it about this jade pendant?"
"No." Linlong shook his head, then continued, "I just want the city master to take me to the Wenchang Sect to take a look."
Yu Yuan was once a disciple of the Wenchang Sect.
"The Wenchang Sect? Why are you going there? "Yu Yuan's face immediately showed a trace of vigilance.
To be honest, he could not see through Linlong after he entered. He felt that Linlong was not strong, but Qian Yu said that he could defeat a Martial Overlord.
"I just want to get to know the sect master of the Wenchang Sect. I have no other intentions." Linlong smiled indifferently.
"Young master Lin, the sect master of the Wenchang Sect does not know you. He will not meet you." As he said that, Yu Yuan changed the topic. "Of course, if Young master Lin takes out the jade pendant in your hand, the sect master of the Wenchang Sect will definitely meet you immediately."
"I will not take out this jade pendant to give away." Linlong shook his head.
"Since Young master Lin is so reluctant, I can't help you." Yu Yuan also shook his head.
"Then I can only take my leave." With that, Linlong stood up, cupped his hands, and walked out.
"Wait!" Yu Yuan's face immediately turned cold.
"Oh, what's the matter, city master?" Linlong turned around and asked.
"You are a guest. Young master Lin, why don't you stay in my Flowing Water City for a few days?" Yu Yuan said.
"There is no need for that." Linlong shook his head. As he spoke, he turned around and walked out of the door.
As soon as he reached the door, a few warriors immediately blocked in front of Linlong.
These martial artists were not weak. They were all late-stage Martial Overlord Realm martial artists.
These warriors were not outside the main hall. They had followed Yu Yuan here. However, they did not enter the main hall. Instead, they went straight to the door.
Of course, this was already seen by Linlong.
In addition to these martial artists, the other martial artists who had been waiting outside the main hall for a long time also surrounded them.
Seeing this scene, Qian Yu, who was waiting outside, hurriedly said to Yu Yuan, "City Master, you promised me repeatedly that you would not make things difficult for Young Master Lin!"
Qian Yu knew that the jade pendant on Linlong was precious, so when he went to look for Yu Yuan, he made such a request. He did not expect the middle-aged man to go back on his words.
Therefore, he naturally stood up to object. This was also because his status was different. Qian Yu thought highly of him. If it were anyone else, they would not dare to say anything.
"Qian Yu, you don't understand. This jade pendant is very important to me." Yu Yuan shook his head.
"But …"
Qian Yu still wanted to say something, but Yu Yuan had already said to the warriors outside, "Take Lord Qian away."
Since Qian Yu was treated like this, Mo Ran did not dare to say anything. He could only follow behind Qian Yu helplessly.
At this time, Yu Yuan shifted his gaze to Linlong. He smiled and said, "Young Master Lin, I am not making things difficult for you. As long as you take out the jade pendant on you and give it to me, I will arrange for you even if you want to see the other two sect masters."
"What if I don't?" Linlong asked.
Previously in the main hall, he had seen Yu Yuan's desire for the jade pendant and guessed that the middle-aged man would definitely not let him leave. Sure enough, his guess was right.
Of course, even if the other party did not stop him, he would not leave just like that. After all, he had not achieved his goal.
"If you don't take it out, then I will not be polite!" Yu Yuan's expression was cold.
"Since I dared to come here, I have a way to leave. Are you not afraid, City Master?" Linlong could not help but smile.
The reason why he dared to barge in alone was naturally because he was skilled and daring.
"Then why don't you think about it? My Flourishing Water City is not a place where anyone can behave atrociously." Yu Yuan said coldly.
Then, he directly said to the warriors, "Take him down!"
