If Lin Long had been a little later, Qinglian would definitely have fallen into the hands of Qi Gongming and the others.
Lin Long immediately swept his sword over. In an instant, a sword aura that resembled a Sirius cat baring its fangs and brandishing its claws swept towards those people.
How could those people withstand it? They were all sent flying by Lin Long's sword.
Only Qi Gongming, who had dodged in advance, was not injured. At this moment, how would he dare to fight Lin Long? He immediately turned around and fled like the green-clothed woman.
Lin Long did not chase after him. Instead, he first dealt with the few people beside him. He did not want them to deal with Qinglian while he was chasing after Qi Gongming.
In the blink of an eye, those people all died under his sword aura. Then, he chased after Qi Gongming.
Qi Gongming, who had already fled far away, thought that he had escaped. However, just as he was about to catch his breath, a sound came from behind him.
He subconsciously turned around. Before he could clearly see what the sound was, a palm force had already slapped his head. He immediately became dizzy and fell to the ground.
Although he did not clearly see who it was, he already knew that it was definitely Lin Long.
"Brother Lin, let me go," he hurriedly shouted.
Lin Long did not care about him. He directly slapped him again. This time, Qi Gongming did not even have the chance to make a sound before he died.
It was too late for him to regret now.
After killing Qi Gongming, Lin Long returned the way he came.
At this moment, Qinglian was already standing together with a middle-aged man and an eleven or twelve-year-old boy. Seeing that they looked somewhat similar, Lin Long did not need to ask to know that they were Qinglian's father and brother.
"Father, this is Lin Long, Brother Lin," Qinglian said to the middle-aged man.
Then, she turned to the boy beside her and said, "Xiaoyi, quickly greet Brother Lin."
"Hello, Brother Lin," Xiaoyi said timidly.
"Little Brother Lin, I am Qinglian's father, Li Cai," the middle-aged man said to Lin Long.
After saying that, he looked at Qinglian and said, "Qinglian, what's going on? Aren't you at the Green Jade Sect? Why are these people from the Green Jade Sect killing their way here? Did you do something to let the Green Jade Sect down?"
He clearly had a look of blame on his face. To him, Qinglian being able to enter the Green Jade Sect was the greatest gift that the Green Jade Sect had given to their family. Now that the people from the Green Jade Sect had come to kill them, he naturally subconsciously thought that Qinglian had done something wrong to the Green Jade Sect.
"Father, it's like this. My master was killed by these people. They even framed Big Brother Lin for killing my master. That's why we escaped and these people chased after us." Qinglian said.
"What? Your master, Elder Guo, was killed by these people?" The middle-aged man was shocked.
"That's right, they even framed Big Brother Lin as the killer." Qinglian added.
"These people are really hateful!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but angrily say.
He quickly furrowed his brows and said worriedly, "Now that you've killed a few of them, the Green Jade Sect will definitely not let you off. What should we do?"
Although the Green Jade Sect wasn't big, in his opinion, it was still a large sect. It wasn't something that Linlong and Qinglian could provoke. At this moment, he was naturally worried for them.
However, he didn't know that Linlong wasn't afraid of the Green Jade Sect, but the black-clothed girl.
Linlong didn't intend to explain and directly said, "Uncle Li, don't worry. We just need to find a place to hide. This way, they won't find us."
Then, he looked at Qinglian and said, "Qinglian, do you know of any hiding places that won't be easily discovered by the people from the Green Jade Sect?"
"Master said that other than me and Senior Qi, he actually has another disciple. He said that if I'm in trouble and he needs help, he can look for his disciple." Qinglian said.
As she said this, her eyes became moist. She thought of Guo Ziqiang again.
"Okay, then let's go look for him immediately." Linlong immediately said.
Since it was Guo Ziqiang who said it, Linlong naturally wasn't worried.
Then, the few of them left the place and headed towards the place where the person Qinglian mentioned was.
The place where that person was at was called Zi Yi Town. It wasn't far from where they were.
After spending half a day, under Qinglian's lead, the few of them arrived at Zi Yi Town.
According to the place that her master mentioned, Qinglian brought Linlong and the others to a courtyard. The courtyard wasn't big and looked a little shabby.
"Qinglian, if I remember correctly, this is where your Senior Brother stays?" Qinglian's father, Li Cai, asked doubtfully.
In his opinion, since the other party was Qinglian's Senior Brother, he should at least have some status. Therefore, he was naturally doubtful when he saw such a shabby courtyard.
"If I remember correctly, this is the place that Master mentioned," Qinglian said. Although that was what she said, her expression was also very doubtful.
"Qinglian, go up and knock on the door." Linlong said.
"Okay." Qinglian nodded and walked up, then knocked on the door.
Soon, the gate to the courtyard was opened, revealing a tender face. It was a boy of about ten years old.
"Who are you looking for?" Looking at Linlong and the others, the boy asked doubtfully.
"We are looking for Jiang Zhixing. I wonder if he's here?" Linlong said.
Jiang Zhixing was the name of Qinglian's Senior Brother.
"He's here. However, why are you looking for my grandfather? I have never seen you before. "The boy asked doubtfully.
Grandfather? Hearing the boy's words, Linlong and the others were stunned. However, they quickly understood.
If the grandfather that the boy mentioned was really Qinglian's Senior Brother, it wouldn't be surprising for him to be so young. After all, he was a disciple that Guo Ziqiang took in many years ago.
"We are looking for him. Little brother, please inform him." Linlong said with a smile. As he spoke, he handed over a bag of Gray Cloud Coins.
The boy's eyes lit up when he saw the Gray Cloud Coins. He received it and said. "Come in."
Linlong and the others immediately followed him in. Just as they walked into the hall, a middle-aged man appeared in front of them.
"Ah Ming, who are they?" Looking at Linlong and the others, the middle-aged man frowned and asked the boy.
"They said that they are looking for my grandfather," the boy replied.
During this period of time, he had already hidden the bag of Gray Cloud Coins on his body. Therefore, the middle-aged man didn't notice it.
"Looking for your grandfather?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man's expression changed. Even though he quickly returned to normal, Linlong still saw through his expression.
Then, the middle-aged man looked at Linlong and the others. "Who are you looking for?"
"We are looking for Jiang Zhixing. This little brother said that he is his grandfather, so we followed him in." Linlong said with a faint smile.
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man's expression sank. "You are looking for Jiang Zhixing? I'm sorry, we don't have such a person here. You are looking for the wrong place! "
"That's not right. This little brother said that he is his grandfather. Why do you say that there is no such person here?" Qinglian's father, Li Cai, couldn't help but ask.
"How can you believe the words of a child? In any case, there is no such person here. You can leave! "The middle-aged man said coldly.
Could it be that they were looking for the wrong place? Such a thought flashed through Qinglian's mind.
However, she was still unwilling to give up. She said, "I am a disciple of the Green Jade Sect. I am here to look for Senior Brother Jiang Zhixing. If he is here, please inform him."
Hearing her words, the middle-aged man's expression changed again. Even though he quickly concealed it, Linlong still saw it clearly.
At this moment, Linlong was naturally sure that there was really someone called Jiang Zhixing here. Moreover, it should be Qinglian's senior brother. However, he didn't know why the middle-aged man denied it.
"No, no, you have found the wrong person. Please leave!" The middle-aged man said again.
Then, he looked at the little boy and said, "Ah Ming, send them out!"
"Could it be that we really found the wrong person?" Qinglian couldn't help but mutter.
"Everyone, my father has spoken. You can leave," the little boy said helplessly.
As he spoke, he wondered if he should return the bag of coins.
"Oh, there are quite a few people today. Who is looking for you?"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the gate. Then, a few people walked into the courtyard.
Turning around, Linlong saw that there were six people. The person in the lead was a young man in his thirties. He had a proud expression on his face.
These people's clothes all had the words "Watercloud Sect" embroidered on them. They must be from the Watercloud Sect.
"Why are you guys here again? Didn't I already say that we are not from the Green Jade Sect? We don't have any talisman secret manuals!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but angrily say when he saw these people.
"Do you think I'm wrong just because you say so?" The young man in his thirties sneered and threatened, "Hurry up and hand over that secret manual. I don't have the patience. If you don't hand it over, I don't mind bathing your family in blood!"
As he spoke, he glanced at Linlong and the others. However, it was just a quick glance. He didn't care about Linlong's group at all.
This was naturally because he couldn't sense Linlong's powerful aura.
If he knew that Linlong was a Grade 4 beastmaster, he would definitely turn around and leave in fear.
The strongest person in this group was the young man in his thirties. He had the strength of a late-stage Grade 3 beastmaster. The others were all Grade 2 beastmasters.
"We really don't have that secret manual." The middle-aged man couldn't help but say.
However, he was no longer as sharp as he was before.
"Is that so? Then don't blame me for being impolite!" As he spoke, the young man in his thirties moved and directly grabbed Ah Ming.
Seeing the other party's grab, Ah Ming's expression changed greatly. However, his feet seemed to have grown roots.
In the blink of an eye, the young man in his thirties had already grabbed Ah Ming's shoulder. He was clearly using all his strength.
In the next moment, Ah Ming directly screamed in pain. His face immediately turned deathly pale.
"Let go of Ah Ming!" The middle-aged man couldn't help but shout. At the same time, he rushed towards the young man.
However, just as he arrived in front of the young man, the young man stretched out his hand and directly sent him flying.
After that, he fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. He was only a Grade 1 beastmaster, so how could he be a match for the young man?
At this moment, the young man glared fiercely at the middle-aged man on the ground and said, "Hurry up and hand over the secret manual. Otherwise, I'll kill him with a single slap!"
"What happened …" At this moment, a weak voice came from the hall.
Linlong and the others turned around and noticed a middle-aged woman supporting an old man in his sixties as they walked out.
The old man had a sickly look on his face.
Could he be Ah Ming's grandfather? In other words, Jiang Zhixing? Such a thought flashed through Linlong's mind.
The old man's age isn't much different from Guo Ziqiang's.
"Geezer, you're finally willing to come out?" Looking at the old man, the young man smiled, and then his face sank. "I'm here for you. Hurry up and hand over the secret manual!"
The old man couldn't help but sigh, and then he said, "That's no secret manual. Since you want it, then I'll give it to you. But …."
"But what?" Seeing the old man stop, the young man immediately asked.
"You have to promise that you won't look for trouble with us again!" said the old man.
"Don't worry, we just want the secret manual. So long as we get it, we won't look for trouble with you," said the young man.
"Alright," replied the old man.
As soon as he finished speaking, he rummaged around in his pocket and took out a yellowish book.
As he gazed at the book, his gaze was clearly filled with reluctance, and it caused the young man to urge him. "Old fellow, hurry up and toss it over!"
The old man sighed, and then he tossed the book over.
A delighted expression immediately appeared on the young man's face. However, just when he was about to reach out and grab the book, a figure flashed by and grabbed the book.
It was none other than Linlong who was standing at the side.
"Who are you? How dare you snatch something that belongs to me?" The young man couldn't help but roar at Linlong.
At the same time, his subordinates surrounded Lin Long in the middle.
"Young man, hurry up and give them the book." The old man's expression changed, and he spoke hastily.
When he saw that Linlong was surrounded, Qinglian's father wanted to rush over to help, but he was stopped by Qinglian.
Qinglian could tell that these people weren't a match for Linlong, so she naturally wouldn't allow her father to go over.
"Father, it's fine," she said softly.
Hearing her words, Li Caicai heaved a sigh of relief.
As for Linlong, he paid no attention to the old man. Instead, he shifted his gaze to the young man and said, "This book isn't yours."
"Kid, where are you from?" The young man frowned.
When he saw that Linlong wasn't afraid of them, he was naturally afraid that Linlong was from some great power.
If he wasn't afraid of that, he would have already charged over.
"From the Azure Jade Sect." Linlong smiled indifferently.
Azure Jade Sect?
When he heard those words, the young man's expression immediately changed. It wasn't just him, but the old man as well.
After rolling his eyes, the young man said coldly, "So what if you're from the Azure Jade Sect? As long as I kill all of you, who will know that you died by my hands?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the people surrounding Linlong and said, "Attack!"
Before he finished speaking, those people immediately attacked Linlong with their swords.
