In the next moment, He Yudan swung her staff at the two of them.
Wan Bai and Li Qianjing's expressions immediately turned incomparably ugly when they sensed the energy radiating from the staff. The staff was simply too powerful. Although it couldn't compare to Gu Wenjian's attack, it wasn't something the two of them could withstand.
However, what else could they do? They could only bite the bullet and face it head-on.
They activated all of their strength, but they still couldn't withstand the staff.
"Bang!"
After a loud explosion, both of them were sent flying by the attack.
Wan Bai, who fell to the ground, felt a sweetness in his throat as he spat out a mouthful of blood. Before he could get up, He Yudan had already arrived in front of him.
Seeing He Yudan raise the Black Profound Rod, Wan Bai hurriedly shouted, "Don't … Don't kill me!"
He Yudan hesitated. At this moment, Linlong's voice rang in her ears. "Miss He, you can't let him live!"
Hearing Linlong's words, He Yudan unhesitatingly swung the rod down. After a miserable shriek, Wan Bai died.
Keeping Wan Bai alive would be an additional threat to He Yudan and himself. Not only the two of them, but Lv Gongyi and the rest would also be in danger once they left the secret realm. Hence, Linlong naturally wouldn't be lenient.
He Yudan listened to Linlong. If Linlong wanted her to take action, she naturally wouldn't hesitate.
As for Li Qianjing, he had already escaped when he saw that the situation wasn't good.
Linlong and Li Qianjing didn't chase after him because it was more important to activate the Runic Magic Array.
"Junior Brother Lin, how's the Runic Magic Array?" He Yudan asked.
"It's almost done. Help me protect it and it will be activated soon," Linlong said.
"Okay." He Yudan nodded and stood in front of Linlong. Her eyes were fixed in front of her.
Soon, a smile appeared on Linlong's face. At this moment, he activated a small Runic Magic Array.
This Runic Magic Array had no other use other than to leave the secret realm.
At this moment, Li Qianjing, Feng Dong, and Feng Feng rushed in.
Seeing the Runic Magic Array beside Linlong and He Yudan, their expressions changed. They knew that if they let Linlong and He Yudan leave the secret realm, it would be even more difficult to catch up to them.
"Lin Li, don't run!" Feng Dong hurriedly shouted.
"Sorry, we'll be leaving first." Lin Long smiled as he looked at them. Then, he ignored them and brought He Yudan away from the Runic Magic Array.
Feng Dong and the rest quickly rushed over. By the time they reached the side of the Runic Magic Array, the Runic Magic Array had already disappeared.
"Damn it, we let that brat get away!" Feng Dong and the others cursed when they saw that they were one step behind.
"Elder Feng Dong, hurry up and activate the Runic Magic Array. We'll chase after them!" Li Qianjing hurriedly said.
"Okay." Nodding his head, Feng Dong immediately started fiddling with it.
However, after a while, his expression turned ugly again.
"What's wrong?" Li Qianjing and the other two couldn't help but ask.
"No idea what tricks that brat used. I have no way of activating this Runic Array!" Feng Dong said.
"Then what should we do?" Feng Feng asked.
"We can only look for other places of opportunity to leave!" Feng Dong frowned.
At this moment, they finally noticed Wan Bai who had perished at the side.
"After we get out, we'll definitely tell the people from Tianyue Sect!" Feng Feng said.
Then, the few of them walked out.
On the other side, after a flash of white light, Lin Long and He Yudan appeared in a dense forest. Looking at the completely different surroundings, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief because they had already come out of the secret realm.
"Junior Brother Lin, let's find a place to recuperate first?" He Yudan said.
"There's no need for now. Let's return to Northern Chill City first," Lin Long said.
The reason why they returned to Northern Chill City first was that Lin Long was worried that the Li family would attack Lv Gongyi, Elder Bai Mo, and Xiao Die who were still in Northern Chill City.
After all, there were already people coming out of the secret realm during this period of time. These people would definitely tell the people outside about the situation inside. The Li family would definitely know about Lin Long's situation, so they would most likely attack Lv Gongyi and the other two.
Lin Long could only hope that the Li family had not attacked the three of them yet.
"What about your injuries?" He Yudan frowned.
"It's fine." Lin Long smiled.
"Alright." Seeing Lin Long's expression, He Yudan could only agree helplessly.
The two of them immediately headed in the direction of Northern Chill City. As for Lin Long, he directly activated the Scarlet Eagle's Origin Talent and flew towards Northern Chill City with He Yudan.
Although he was injured, he had already recovered a lot during this period of time, so he could still bring He Yudan along.
When they were not far from Northern Chill City, Lin Long stopped and then entered Northern Chill City with He Yudan.
Naturally, the two of them did not swagger into Northern Chill City.
After entering Northern Chill City, Lin Long quickly arrived at the inn where Lv Gongyi and the other two were staying.
After arriving, Lin Long's expression became ugly because Lv Gongyi and the other two were not here.
Previously, Lin Long told the three of them not to leave unless something unexpected happened. Since they were not here, it was very likely that something unexpected had happened.
Although he guessed that it was the Li family's doing, Lin Long still asked He Yudan to ask the innkeeper of the inn. To his dismay, the innkeeper actually did not know anything and only said that Lv Gongyi and the other two had disappeared the day before yesterday.
"I'm afraid they're locked up in the Li family's dungeon," He Yudan guessed.
"I guess so." Lin Long nodded.
The two of them immediately headed in the direction of the Li family's dungeon and stopped outside the courtyard. As for Lin Long, he released the bamboo rat.
The reason for this was to let the bamboo rat sense Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly's aura.
After Lv Yue was taken away by the woman in white, Lin Long was afraid that something like this would happen again, so he let the bamboo rat remember Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly's aura.
Now, it seemed to be working, but he only hoped that the bamboo rat could sense the two's aura.
What made Lin Long frown was that after being released for a while, the bamboo rat could not sense Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly's aura in the Li family's courtyard.
Obviously, the two of them were not inside.
"Could they have been captured by one of the other forces?" He Yudan could not help but worry.
It would be fine if they were captured by the Li family since they were currently in Northern Chill City, but it would be troublesome if they were captured by the other three forces.
"There's no hurry. Let's take a look in Northern Chill City first," Lin Long said.
Although he felt that the possibility of them being taken away by the other three forces was very high, Lin Long still made up his mind.
Subsequently, the two of them began to carefully search Northern Chill City with the bamboo rat.
To their relief, there were not many people from the Li family in Northern Chill City. It was obvious that the Li family had sent people to Mount Feixue.
An hour later, Lin Long, who arrived at the south side of Northern Chill City, had a look of joy on his face because the bamboo rat had reacted. It sensed Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly's aura in the courtyard in front, which meant that Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly were in this courtyard.
"Miss He, which force's territory is this?" Lin Long looked at He Yudan and asked.
"This is the territory of the Shi family in Northern Chill City," He Yudan replied.
He Yudan had been in Northern Chill City for a much longer time than Lin Long, so she naturally knew more than him.
"The Shi family is much weaker than the Li family," He Yudan added.
Then, he asked, "Have you ever had a conflict with the Shi family?"
"No." Lin Long shook his head.
"Then why did they take them away?" He Yudan asked curiously.
"I don't know about that." Lin Long shook his head again.
Immediately, the two of them sneaked into the courtyard. The courtyard was not big, but there were two level-four beasts inside.
With his powerful Divine Force, Lin Long avoided the two level-four beasts and found the place where Lv Gongyi and Little Butterfly were locked up.
It seemed to be a basement.
When they arrived at the entrance of the basement, they saw two people guarding at the door. Looking at one of them, He Yudan could not help but exclaim, "The person on the left is from the Li family. His name is Yu Yong."
Yu Yong? Lin Long was naturally surprised.
However, he did not ask He Yudan why because he knew that she would not know even if he asked.
"What should we do? Should we just rush over?" He Yudan asked.
"Just walk over," Lin Long said.
It was rather spacious in front of them, so there was no way for them to sneak to the two people.
"But if we go over like this, won't we be discovered by them directly?" He Yudan asked doubtfully.
The other party knew her. As for Lin Long, there was no need to mention him. Therefore, without a doubt, if the two of them went over like this, the other party would definitely sound a warning.
Lin Long and Little Butterfly were not afraid of the two level-four beasts, but they were afraid that they would attract more experts. If that happened, it would be difficult for them to bring Lv Gongyi and the rest away.
"Of course we won't go over like this," Lin Long said.
After looking around for a moment, he said to He Yudan, "You stay here." With that, he left in a flash.
They were now hiding behind a wing. There were many houses around here, so it was not as spacious as the place where the two people were hiding. Moreover, there were not many people, so it was easy for them to hide.
Soon, Lin Long returned with two sets of clothes in his hands.
"These are the clothes of the Shi family's servants. We will put them on and disguise ourselves. They won't be able to recognize us," Lin Long said.
"Junior Brother Lin is so smart." After praising him, He Yudan put on one of the clothes according to Lin Long's request.
Then, she smeared it on her face before the two of them headed in the direction of Yu Yong and Little Butterfly.
"Are you two newcomers? Why are you walking here without permission?" Seeing Lin Long and Little Butterfly walk over, the person beside Yu Yong frowned.
"These two lords, Chief Gu asked us to bring some things over," Lin Long said hurriedly.
He obtained these two sets of clothes from the two servants. Then, he found out that the butler in charge of this courtyard was called Gu Ye.
"Chief Gu?" Hearing Lin Long's words, the two of them were stunned.
When Lin Long and Little Butterfly walked in front of them, they asked again, "What did he ask you to bring over?"
Lin Long pretended to reach into his clothes. As for He Yudan, she did the same. However, when they stretched out their hands, two cold rays of light shot towards them.
Before they could even make a sound, the two of them fell to the ground.
Although they were third-rank beastmasters, how could they resist Lin Long and Little Butterfly's sneak attack?
After dragging the two of them in, Lin Long said to He Yudan, "Miss He, guard the entrance."
"Alright." He Yudan nodded.
Linlong walked inside. It was indeed a basement. What made him heave a sigh of relief was that there weren't any other guards inside.
Lin Long soon saw Lv Gongyi, Little Butterfly, and Elder Bai Mo.
The three of them were shackled by shackles.
"Young Master Lin!" The three of them were overjoyed when they saw Lin Long.
Linlong immediately removed the shackles on their hands and feet, then said, "Come with me."
Although he had a lot of questions, he knew that now was not the time to ask.
"Where are Yu Yong and Little Butterfly?"
At this moment, a voice came from above.
It was obvious that someone had suddenly come outside. Lin Long frowned because he sensed the aura of a fourth-rank beastmaster. It was obvious that it was a fourth-rank beastmaster.
What made Lin Long heave a sigh of relief was that it was only a fourth-rank beastmaster.
"The two lords went downstairs. Let me watch from above for a while." He Yudan's voice came from above again.
"Is that so? This elder will go down and take a look," the fourth-rank beastmaster said.
It was obvious that he was not as familiar with the Shi family's servants as Yu Yong and Little Butterfly.
Soon, someone came down from the mountain.
Lin Long gestured for Lv Gongyi and the other two to hide at the side.
Three breaths later, an old man appeared in the basement.
Looking at the empty basement, the old man's expression changed. It was also at this moment that Lin Long, who was hiding in front of him, made his move. Lin Long held the Bloodline Sword in his hand and charged at him.
At the same time, someone behind the old man also shot a sword at him.
This person was none other than He Yudan, who had followed them down from above.
At this critical moment, the old man hurriedly pulled out his longsword.
However, he was still a step too late. Before he could attack, Lin Long and He Yudan's swords had already pierced into his body.
In the blink of an eye, this person died.
"Young Master Lin, your strength has increased?"
"Young Master Lin, who is this person?"
In an instant, Lv Gongyi and Elder Bai Mo were surprised.
"Let's leave this place first. We'll talk outside," Lin Long said.
After saying that, he led the three of them out.
It was quiet outside. It was obvious that the sounds of fighting inside did not arouse any suspicions.
After spending some effort, Lin Long and He Yudan brought the three of them out of the courtyard. After finding a place to settle them down, Lin Long asked, "Who captured you?"
"It's the Li family," Lv Gongyi said.
"The Li family? Who? "Lin Long asked again.
"It's someone called Gu Zhong. Two days ago, he brought a few people to capture us. They are too strong, and we are not their match at all," Elder Bai Mo said.
"However, why didn't they bring you to the Li family?" Lin Long asked curiously.
"We don't know either." Lv Gongyi and Elder Bai Mo shook their heads.
