Once he came out, he immediately went to look for the demon race elder who had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing that Lin Long wasn't by his side, the demon race elder was startled and hurriedly asked. "Lord Luo, what's the situation?"
"I wasn't able to buy Young Master Lin." Lord Luo shook his head.
"Meng Ge isn't willing to sell?" The demon race elder asked.
"It's not that he isn't willing to sell, but he sold Young Master Lin to Ai Yi." Lord Luo replied.
"Ai Yi?" Hearing Lord Luo's words, the demon race elder's face immediately turned ugly.
Because he knew what kind of person Ai Yi was. Although Ai Yi was a merchant like Meng Ge and had many gladiators under him, he had a wide network of connections. He knew many of the influential officials and elders in the three cities. Moreover, there were many who gave him face. Not only that, he even came into contact with the Demon Emperor.
Therefore, the gladiators under the demon race weren't something that Lord Luo could afford.
If Lu Han appeared, the other party would give him face. However, with Lu Han's status, she couldn't appear.
In other words, they temporarily couldn't get Lin Long out of Ai Yi's place.
After receiving this news, the demon race elder immediately replied to Lu Han.
Hearing that Ai Yi actually bought Lin Long, Lu Han's brows naturally furrowed.
"Madam, what should we do now?" Qing Yi couldn't help but ask.
"We can only try our best to think of a way. I hope that Young Master Lin is blessed and nothing will happen to him." In the end, Lu Han could only sigh.
It could be said that if Lin Long was under Meng Ge, the situation would obviously be better for them.
However, since the outcome was like this, they could only try their best to think of a way.
…
At this moment, Lin Long still didn't know that he was sold. Once he left the arena, he was brought by one of Meng Ge's subordinates to the room where the masked woman was.
It seemed that Meng Ge was a man of his word.
When she saw Lin Long, the woman hid in the corner of the wall. Her body trembled as though she was very afraid.
"I am a human after all. What are you afraid of?" Lin Long couldn't help but ask.
Who would have thought that after hearing this, the woman became even more afraid.
Looking at the woman's appearance, Lin Long suddenly moved. He reached out and grabbed the veil on the woman's face. Although the woman wanted to dodge, how could she? The veil on her face was directly pulled off by Lin Long.
A face full of scars appeared in front of Lin Long. What made Lin Long frown was that most of the scars were new.
It was obvious that this woman had been tortured. There was no need to think about it to know that there were more scars on her body than on her face.
"So it's a woman with such a hard life." Linlong could not help but sigh.
Hearing Linlong's sigh, the woman stopped trembling. Instead, she looked at Linlong pitifully.
"What's your name?" Linlong asked.
"Xiaoru," the man spat out two words.
"Xiaoru, it's fate that we met. I can't save you now, but I'll see if there's a chance in the future." As he spoke, Linlong took out a supreme-grade healing pill and said, "Bite a little of this every day. It'll be useful to you."
"Thank you, Young Master." Xiaoru received the supreme-grade healing pill from Linlong.
After receiving the healing pill, Xiaoru placed her hand on her button.
At this moment, the voice of the guard came from outside. "Lin Li, Lord Monger is asking for you."
"Okay, I got it." After replying, Linlong glanced at Xiaoru and turned to walk out.
Soon, he arrived in front of Monger.
"Lord, what's the matter?" he asked.
"Lin Li, you did well tonight," Monger said with a smile on his face.
"Thank you for the compliment, Lord," Linlong said.
"Do you know that because of your performance tonight, a madam paid a large sum of money to have you accompany her?" Monger said.
"Oh?" Hearing Monger's words, Linlong could not help but be a little surprised.
"Why? Are you unwilling?" Monger's face darkened.
"Lin Li is now Lord's subordinate. Whatever Lord wants Lin Li to do, Lin Long will not dare to disobey," Linlong hurriedly said.
"It's good that you know." Monger snorted coldly, and then said, "However, you still won't be so lucky because Lord Ai Yi has already bought you. From now on, you are Ai Yi's subordinate, and Ai Yi doesn't like that woman."
Speaking of this, Monger looked at the guard beside him, and said, "Bring him out to Lord Ai Yi."
Soon, Linlong was brought to Ai Yi.
Linlong had seen Ai Yi in the arena, so he naturally knew him.
"Lin Li, from now on, you are my gladiator. You are not allowed to disobey my orders even if you die, understand?" Ai Yi shouted coldly as soon as he saw Linlong.
"Yes." Linlong nodded.
With his experience, he could tell that Ai Yi was much more cunning and ruthless than Monger.
"That's good. You can leave first." Saying so, he got one of his guards to bring Linlong away.
Next, the conditions of food and accommodation were naturally similar to before. Obviously, businessmen like them were willing to invest in them.
During the few days under Ai Yi, Linlong stayed in Qingning City.
In these few days, there were two days where Linlong performed in the arena. His opponents were also quite strong.
However, they were defeated by Linlong in the end. Still, Linlong did not show too much strength, and every time, he would just barely defeat his opponent.
Although he did not show too much strength, he was praised by Ai Yi.
In these two days, Linlong did not see Lu Han and Qingyi again. In fact, he did not even see the old demon in these few days.
On the fifth day, he received news that Ai Yi would bring them to the other two cities.
Linlong thought that with Ai Yi's strength, he would not be stopped when he left the city. He did not expect that on the day they left the city, they would still be stopped.
A demon powerhouse in the intermediate Martial King Realm led more than 20 demons from Qingning City to stop them.
"Lord Ai Yi, you know about the recent incident, so I hope you can understand," the demon powerhouse said to Ai Yi.
"Ai Yi understands," Ai Yi nodded with a smile.
Next, the demon powerhouse began to inspect the gladiators carefully. The demon powerhouse's focus was naturally on the gladiators.
He inspected them carefully one by one and soon, he came to Linlong's side.
"Lord, this gladiator is Lin Li, who has been very famous in Qingning City for the past two days. You must have heard of him. He definitely has nothing to do with that human," said one of Ai Yi's subordinates who was accompanying the Goblin powerhouse with a smile.
"I know," the demon powerhouse nodded.
Then, to the surprise of the demons present, the demon powerhouse suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed it at Linlong.
"Lord, what are you doing?" Ai Yi's subordinate beside him could not help but exclaim.
"Poof!"
With a soft sound, the dagger directly stabbed into the right side of Linlong's chest.
Seeing this scene, the faces of the demons beside Linlong changed drastically. As for Ai Yi, his face was also extremely ugly, but he did not move.
After stabbing the dagger into Linlong's chest, the demon powerhouse could not help but smile when he saw Linlong frowning in pain. "Not bad, you are indeed worthy of being Ai Yi's warrior."
Then, he did not linger around Linlong and continued to inspect the other gladiators. However, when he inspected the other gladiators, he did not make things difficult for them like he did for Linlong.
After the inspection, he turned around and left, leaving behind Ai Yi who still had an ugly expression on his face.
"Lord, this fellow seems to have something against us!" one of Ai Yi's subordinates beside him said coldly while staring at the demon powerhouse.
Ai Yi did not answer him. Instead, he looked at Linlong and nodded approvingly. "Well done."
As he spoke, he took out a healing pill and gave it to Linlong.
This scene made the gladiators around Linlong extremely envious. It was obvious that Ai Yi thought very highly of Linlong.
Then, he said loudly, "Let's go!"
Next, they did not encounter any more obstacles and easily walked out of Qingning City.
After walking out of Qingning City, Linlong naturally heaved a sigh of relief because if he walked any further, the runes in his body would probably not work anymore. After all, he was no longer in Qingning City.
However, he had not gone far when a Demon Race member suddenly handed him a piece of paper.
After glancing at the note, Linlong's expression turned ugly. This was what was written on it.
"Young Master, the matter of a human leaving the No Man's World and causing havoc in Clear Peace City has alarmed the entire Demon Race. The Demon Emperors of the three major cities have even gathered together. Then, the Demon Emperor of Clear Peace City made a decision, that is, to let the other two major accomplishment Demon Race experts also use the rune formation to track the runes in your body. In other words, as long as you are within the range of the three major cities, they can use the rune formation to sense your existence. So, don't use the Profound Qi and Devil Qi in your body unless it's absolutely necessary! "
Even though there was no signature on the note, Linlong knew that it was written by Lu Han.
At that moment, he directly crumpled the piece of paper.
However, the content of the note made him frown. Originally, he thought that after leaving Qingning City, he would be able to use the Profound Qi and Devil Qi in his body, but now it seemed that he was wrong.
Even if he was outside the three major cities, the demon race might be able to sense his existence.
It seems that I can only find the demon sect first and see if they have a way to remove the runes. Linlong made such a decision in his heart.
In this way, he could only continue to be Ai Yi's gladiator.
Nothing much happened after that. Soon, they arrived at another city. Listening to the words of the people next to him, Linlong knew that this was the demon race's Ancient Moon City.
Sure enough, as soon as they arrived at the city gate of Ancient Moon City, Linlong saw the three big words "Ancient Moon City" on the city gate. Of course, these three big words were written in the demon language.
Ancient Moon City was very different from Qingning City. It was surrounded by city walls.
From time to time, runes flashed on these city walls, which were obviously shrouded in a Runic Magic Array.
When they entered Ancient Moon City, they were naturally subjected to strict checks. However, this time, Linlong did not suffer the same difficulties as before.
Not long after entering Ancient Moon City, they were notified that there would be a battle in Ancient Moon City's gladiator arena tonight.
Because Linlong was injured, he was not arranged.
Unknowingly, five days had passed in Ancient Moon City. During these five days, Linlong had been recuperating. Of course, he also had the opportunity to go to the gladiator arena to take a look.
During such a time, he hoped that Lu Han's people would come to find him. To his disappointment, no one or demon race came to find him.
On the sixth night, Linlong was arranged to participate in a gladiator arena.
This was another gladiator arena. Entering this arena, Linlong found that it was much bigger than the one in Qingning City. Although it was much bigger, the demon race who came to watch the battle still filled the entire arena.
These demons who came were naturally the nobles of Ancient Moon City. Like Qingning City, some were even elders of Ancient Moon City.
This time, Linlong's opponent was a young man with a slender figure. This young man's strength was obviously much lower than Arnold's. Hence, this time, Linlong did not find it difficult to deal with him. Instead, he easily defeated his opponent.
Linlong thought that this was the end of the gladiator arena. Unexpectedly, a demon stood up and said to Ai Yi on the other side, "Lord Ai Yi, this Lin Li is quite famous in Qingning City. Isn't it inappropriate for you to only arrange such an opponent for him?"
As soon as this was said, many demons immediately responded.
"Yes, this Lin Li is indeed famous in Qingning City. I heard that he killed Meng Ge's gladiator, Ah Xiong. Lord Ai Yi, it is really inappropriate for you to only arrange such an opponent for him."
"Lord Ai Yi, at least arrange a stronger opponent for him, right?"
Hearing the words of these demons, Ai Yi could not help but frown. He then said, "Lin Li suffered some injuries previously, and his injuries have just healed, so …"
As soon as these words came out, some of the monsters were dissatisfied. "Lord Ai Yi, it's not right for you to say that. They are gladiators. Which gladiator is not scarred? If they are afraid of a little injury, why are they still gladiators? They should just be killed by us, the monster race."
This demon had a high status. He was an elder of Ancient Moon City, and Ai Yi did not dare to offend the public. Hence, Ai Yi could only say, "In that case, let's arrange for Lin Li to fight again."
As soon as he said this, his subordinate beside him whispered, "Lord, the opponents for tonight have been arranged."
Coincidentally, his words were heard by the demon from before. He immediately chuckled, and said, "Lord Ai Yi, I know that a wild beast has just entered this arena recently. This wild beast's strength is similar to that of an ordinary gladiator. Why don't we let it compete with Lin Li?"
"I haven't seen such a gladiator battle in a long time. Lord Ai Yi, let's broaden our horizons tonight."
As soon as they heard such a suggestion, the demons present immediately agreed loudly.
"In that case, let's let that wild beast fight with Lin Li," Ai Yi had no choice but to agree with a sullen expression.
However, when he found out what kind of ferocious beast Lin Long was going to fight, his expression became even more sullen because it turned out to be a spotted tiger.
That was a spotted tiger. Gladiators who were not strong enough would not be its opponent at all. However, if Ai Yi had known that it was a spotted tiger, he would not have agreed at all. However, he could not change his mind now.
