What made Linlong heave a sigh of relief was that Guo Mingfeng's words were the same as before. It was obvious that Elder Zhu didn't know about this matter. Linlong didn't have to worry that Elder Zhu would tell anyone else about this matter.
Then, Linlong took out a Destiny Pill and threw it to Guo Mingfeng.
"What is this?" Guo Mingfeng's expression changed when he caught the Destiny Pill.
He could tell that it wasn't a pill used for cultivation.
"This is the Destiny Pill …" Linlong immediately explained the effects of the Destiny Pill.
"This …" Guo Mingfeng's face twitched when he heard Linlong's explanation. However, he didn't have a choice at this time and could only swallow it obediently.
After Guo Mingfeng swallowed the Destiny Pill, Linlong called the other Deputy Hall Masters over and gave them the Ten Days of Psychological Assault Pill.
Linlong was still worried after taking the Ten Days of Psychological Assault Pill and instructed Guo Mingfeng to let them stay in the branch hall. This way, no one would know about this matter.
As for Elder Zhu, Lin Long also gave him a Fate Enforcing Pill after calling him over. After all, Elder Zhu had seen them before, and he couldn't be imprisoned here like the other Vice Hall Masters. Hence, it was natural for him to take the Fate Enforcing Pill as insurance.
After hearing about the effects of the Destiny Pill, Elder Zhu naturally didn't want to swallow it. However, he didn't have a choice at this time and could only swallow it obediently.
After swallowing it, he naturally obeyed Linlong's orders like Guo Mingfeng.
"Hall Master Guo, Elder Guo Ying has something to discuss with you!" Just as Elder Zhu swallowed the Destiny Pill, a voice came from outside.
It was obvious that Guo Mingfeng's subordinate had brought Elder Guo Ying over.
"Elder Guo Ying, please wait a moment!" Guo Mingfeng hurriedly shouted.
"Who is Guo Ying?" Linlong asked in a low voice.
"Guo Ying is an elder of our Guo Family," Guo Mingfeng replied.
"Did you call him over, just like Elder Zhu?" Linlong asked.
"No, I also don't know why he came over." Guo Mingfeng shook his head.
At this time, an impatient voice came from outside. "Hall Master Guo, what are you doing? If you don't say anything, I'm going in!"
Obviously, this was Guo Ying's voice.
After saying that, Guo Ying walked to the door of the house.
"Elder Guo Ying, I'll be right there." Guo Mingfeng hurriedly said.
"Let's hide first," said Linlong.
After saying that, he led Shao Yong, Xiang Rong, and Lu Jing into the room just now.
After the few of them entered, Guo Mingfeng ordered someone to open the door. Immediately, a tall and skinny middle-aged man walked in.
As soon as he entered, he didn't look surprised to see Elder Zhu. It was as if he already knew that Elder Zhu was inside.
When he walked in, he looked around as if he was looking for something.
"Elder Guo Ying, what are you doing?" Guo Mingfeng asked, puzzled.
"I heard someone say that Elder Lu Jing of the Lu Clan brought some people into the branch hall. Isn't he here?" Guo Ying asked.
It seemed that Guo Ying had seen them entering this place? Linlong frowned.
Outside, Guo Mingfeng replied, "Elder Guo Ying, you must be mistaken. I didn't see Lu Jing at all."
"Is that so?" Guo Ying obviously didn't believe it. He continued to look around. Soon, he asked doubtfully, "Are there any traces of fighting in here?"
It was normal for there to be traces of fighting in here.
"Elder Guo Ying, I was sparring with a few Vice Hall Masters. That's why this happened." Guo Mingfeng couldn't help but smile.
"That's right. We sparred with Hall Master Guo when we were free," the other Vice Hall Masters said.
"Even if I came in, they would still be sparring," Elder Zhu said.
Who would have thought that Guo Ying still didn't believe him? He then asked, "Can I take a look at the rooms inside?"
After asking that, he didn't wait for Guo Mingfeng's reply and directly walked inside.
It seemed like this person didn't believe Guo Mingfeng and the others at all! Linlong thought to himself.
Immediately, he walked out of the room.
Why did Young Master Lin come out? Seeing Linlong come out just like that, Guo Mingfeng, Elder Zhu, and the others were naturally shocked.
"Huh?" Guo Ying was startled when he saw Linlong. "That's right, you came in with Lu Jing. Since that's the case, Lu Jing should be inside as well, right?"
At this moment, Linlong wore his bamboo hat again. Although Guo Ying didn't see his true appearance, he remembered that he was the one who came in with Lu Jing.
After saying that, Guo Ying looked at Guo Mingfeng and Elder Zhu. "Elder Zhu, Hall Master Guo Mingfeng, our Guo Family doesn't have a good relationship with the Lu Family. Why would the two of you meet with Lu Jing privately in this branch hall? Could it be that you're plotting something?"
At the end of his sentence, his voice suddenly became stern.
"Elder Guo Ying, you must be joking. How are we plotting anything? We're just discussing some private matters with Elder Lu Jing." Guo Mingfeng smiled bitterly.
Who would have thought that just as he finished speaking, Linlong suddenly said, "Take that person down!"
Hearing Linlong's words, Guo Ying couldn't help but be shocked. "Who are you?"
At this moment, he was naturally shocked by Lin Long's identity. He actually dared to order the people around him like this. One had to know that Elder Zhu was also around.
Once Linlong gave the order, Guo Mingfeng, Elder Zhu, and the rest naturally surrounded Guo Ying.
Seeing this situation, Guo Ying hurriedly took out an ice talisman.
"Elder Zhu, your attainment in ice talismans is weaker than mine. Could it be that you want to have a taste of my grade 2 ice talisman?!" Guo Ying sneered.
Just as he finished speaking, his expression changed again. That was because a person had walked out from behind Linlong. It was Lu Jing.
No matter how powerful he was, he wasn't a match for Lu Jing and Elder Zhu.
"Lu Jing, you're really here. It seems like you're plotting something!" Guo Ying said coldly.
"Elder Guo Ying, you don't need to know what we're plotting," Guo Mingfeng said indifferently.
"Elder Zhu, Guo Mingfeng, aren't you afraid of being punished by the Patriarch?" Guo Ying sneered.
"Elder Zhu, stop talking nonsense with him. Let's make our move!" Lu Jing said.
In the next moment, he had already taken out his ice talisman and started chanting a rune term.
On the other side, Elder Zhu did the same. Guo Ying hurriedly activated the ice talisman in his hand.
In the next moment, waves of cold air began to envelop the entire hall. Xiang Rong and Shao Yong, who had already followed them out, hurriedly ran out.
Guo Ying had only activated a grade 2 ice talisman, so how could he be a match for Elder Zhu and Lu Jing? However, Guo Ying persisted for a while before he was defeated.
It was obvious that his attainment in grade 2 ice talismans was higher than Lu Jing's.
Once he was defeated, Linlong immediately walked forward and asked, "Did you tell anyone else that you saw us enter this branch hall?"
"Why would I tell you that … In any case, our Guo Family will not let you off for doing such a thing behind our backs!" Guo Ying said coldly.
Linlong couldn't be bothered to waste any more words with him. He immediately placed a restriction on his body.
Once the restriction was activated, Guo Ying quickly begged for mercy. Only then did Linlong remove the restriction.
"I didn't tell anyone else … I originally wanted to tell someone else, but there was no one else around, so I came in," Guo Ying said.
Hearing his words, Linlong and the others naturally heaved a sigh of relief.
Linlong immediately took out a Ten Days Heart Attack Pill. After explaining its effects, Guo Ying's expression naturally became extremely ugly. Then, she could only swallow the pill like the others.
Who exactly was this person? From the looks of it, everyone around him was forced to swallow the Ten Day Heart Attack Pill? After consuming it, he naturally had many questions in his mind.
However, he only dared to have doubts in his heart. How could he dare to voice them out?
What he didn't know was that if he hadn't seen Linlong and the others' faces, Linlong would definitely have made him swallow a Fate Enforcing Pill.
After subduing Guo Ying, there were no more accidents.
After that, Linlong simply stayed in the branch hall and let Elder Zhu, Lu Jing, and the others teach him, Xiang Rong, and Shao Yong the Deep Chill Runes and Ice Chill Talisman Papers.
Naturally, the two of them couldn't stay there forever, so they took turns to come here for a period of time each day.
Who knew that a day later, Lu Jing's expression was a little ugly when he came to see him.
"What's the matter?" Linlong asked.
"Young Master Lin, someone is causing trouble for me," Lu Jing said.
"Oh, who is it?"
"That person is our Lu Clan's Fourth Elder. When I brought you into Ding Xi City and brought you to this branch hall, I was noticed by him," Lu Jing said.
"Oh, then what does he want?" Linlong asked.
It was obvious that other than Guo Ying, someone else had noticed them.
Linlong wasn't surprised by this. After all, it was too conspicuous for them to enter the city wearing conical bamboo hats. If someone wanted to deal with Lu Jing, they would definitely notice them.
"He wants to know what's going on, and then he wants to use this matter to threaten me, to force me to obey him … If I don't obey, he will tell the Patriarch that I colluded with the Guo Clan in an attempt to deal with the Lu Clan," Lu Jing said.
"If that's the case, then find a chance to meet him, and then take the opportunity to take him down!" Linlong said directly.
Linlong was worried that the Fourth Elder would go to Bing Xuan City to investigate, and then find out about the Valley Stone Village, which would be bad, so he might as well go all out and take down the other party first.
"The Fourth Elder is not weak, and his attainments in Level Two Ice Chill Talisman are much better than mine," Lu Jing said immediately.
"If that's the case, then we need to call Elder Zhu and Guo Ying," Linlong said.
After thinking about it, Lu Jing said, "Then I'll ask him to meet at a slightly remote teahouse, and then call Elder Zhu and Elder Guo Ying."
After communicating with the Fourth Elder, Lu Jing confirmed that he would meet the other party at the teahouse tomorrow night.
The Fourth Elder didn't seem to be worried that Lu Jing would dare to play any tricks, so he gladly went to the appointment.
The next night, Linlong and the others came to the teahouse first, and then Lu Jing came over. After Lu Jing came over, he waited for a while before the Fourth Elder walked into the box that Lu Jing had booked.
After entering the box and sitting down, the Fourth Elder said slowly, "Lu Jing, have you thought about it?"
Linlong, who was in the dark, saw that the Fourth Elder was obviously in his fifties, but because of his bald head, he looked a little younger.
Lu Jing immediately said, "Fourth Elder, I have made a decision."
As soon as his voice fell, Elder Zhu and Guo Ying, who were hiding at the side, came out.
Seeing these two people coming out together, the Fourth Elder's face couldn't help but become ugly. He didn't expect that Lu Jing could actually call the two elders of the Guo Clan over.
If it was just one person, he still had the confidence to deal with it, but if the three of them attacked together, it would be a little difficult.
"Lu Jing, what are you doing?" The Fourth Elder frowned and said coldly.
"Naturally, I'm going to take you down, Fourth Elder." Lu Jing smiled indifferently.
"Lu Jing, you are an elder of the Lu Clan. How dare you collude with outsiders to deal with me, the Fourth Elder of the Lu Clan? Aren't you afraid that the Patriarch will lock you up forever in the dungeon if he finds out about this?" The Fourth Elder sneered.
"If I'm afraid, I wouldn't have let them come here," Lu Jing said.
"I really don't know what you are planning to do. You actually want to deal with me!" The Fourth Elder's face had already become gloomy.
To be honest, he didn't expect Lu Jing to be so bold.
How could he know that Lu Jing had Linlong behind him?
At this moment, Lu Jing, Elder Zhu, and Guo Ying had already activated the ice talismans in their hands. Seeing this situation, even though the Fourth Elder knew that he was no match for them, he could only bite the bullet and activate his own ice talismans.
As soon as the ice talismans were activated, the entire box was filled with waves of cold air. Soon after, the entire teahouse was filled with the same.
Fortunately, this place was relatively remote, and Lu Jing had already bribed the people in the teahouse, so no one around them noticed this place.
Soon, the result was out. The Fourth Elder was indeed no match for Lu Jing and the others.
Although he had the highest attainment in second-grade ice talismans, it was still difficult for two fists to fight against four hands.
Seeing that he was defeated, the people who followed him naturally wanted to run away. However, Linlong, Xiang Rong, and Shao Yong did not give them the chance.
Before they could run more than a few steps, they were already knocked down to the ground.
Just like that, the Fourth Elder and the others were under their control.
"Lu Jing, how dare you do this! The Patriarch will definitely not forgive you!" The Fourth Elder who was unwilling to give up said fiercely.
However, his expression quickly changed because he realized that after a person wearing a big bamboo hat did something to his body, he was in so much pain that he wanted to die. He immediately rolled on the ground.
Unable to bear it, he immediately begged for mercy.
When the others saw that even someone as strong as the Fourth Elder could only beg for mercy, they did not dare to say another word.
"Apart from you, who else did you tell about this?" Linlong asked.
"No one else. It was just me and the others," the Fourth Elder replied honestly.
Hearing this, Linlong naturally heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he took out a Fate Obeying Pill and fed it to the Fourth Elder.
Although there were only a few Fate Obeying Pills left, in order to not leak the news, he could only let the Fourth Elder consume one.
As for the others, Linlong naturally fed them ten days of Heart Attack Pills.
Just like that, another problem was solved.
Although he lost a few Fate Obeying Pills, he was naturally satisfied with the few people who could activate second-grade ice talismans working for him.
He would go to Ding Xi City's market to see if there were any materials that could be used to refine the Fate Obeying Pill. If there were, he would be able to use the Fate Obeying Pill at will. Soon after, such a thought emerged in Linlong's mind.
Previously, due to a lack of materials, he did not have many Fate Obeying Pills on hand. However, after coming to this world, that was not necessarily the case. After all, this world did not lack such materials.
An hour later, Linlong asked Lu Jing to bring him to Ding Xi City's market.
