After returning to his house, Linlong naturally focused all his energy on crafting Purple Fire Talismans.
At this time, Elder Wei personally brought some people to find Yao Lei.
"Elder Wei, why are you here!" Seeing Elder Wei, Yao Lei secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He naturally knew why Elder Wei had come.
"Yao Lei, I'll get straight to the point. I'm here because of Linlong and Yan Liang." Elder Wei went straight to the point.
"Elder Wei, I don't know what you're talking about." Yao Lei feigned ignorance.
"It's very simple. I heard that you're now under Linlong's command. I hope you can turn over a new leaf and join us from Linlong's side," Elder Wei said.
"I wonder what Elder Wei wants me to do?" Yao Lei asked after some thought.
"Can you get the antidote for the Ten Day Heart Attack Pill from Linlong?" Although Elder Wei felt that it was impossible, he still asked such a question.
"I'm sorry, I can't do that." Yao Lei could not help but smile bitterly.
He was also forced to consume the Ten Day Heart Attack Pill. If he did not have the antidote, how could he possibly get it out?
"Then what did you do in the Catacombs a few days ago?" Elder Wei asked again.
Although Elder Wei felt that Linlong would definitely go in to hunt for vicious beasts to earn contribution points, he still asked such a question. He felt that he had to be serious and careful.
"We … only hunted vicious beasts to earn contribution points. We didn't do anything else," Yao Lei said immediately.
He felt that he could not tell Elder Wei about what Linlong had done. After all, Yang Yanliang and Ren Kaicheng were examples. He did not want to die without being able to obtain the antidote.
After hearing Yao Lei's words, Elder Wei immediately stared into Yao Lei's eyes and asked, "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true." Yao Lei pretended to be very magnanimous. Elder Wei could not see any clues at all.
"Is that so? Then let me ask again. Do you really want to join us?" Elder Wei asked again.
Previously, he only asked a few questions. He had not confirmed that Yao Lei would join them.
"This … Elder Wei, can you allow me to consider …" Yao Lei could not help but ask.
"Consider? What else is there to consider? " Elder Wei's face sank, and then he said, "You should know that our strength isn't something that Linlong can compare to. To tell you the truth, the Yang Family has already sent an expert who can activate a Grade 5 Ice Talisman. Coupled with the rest of us, do you think that Linlong's group has any chance of winning against us?"
After a slight pause, he said, "Also, we've already convinced Third Elder, who has already decided to deal with Linlong." Third elder has already decided to deal with Linlong. With these two powerhouses, you will be like paper … So, what else do you have to consider? Do you want to die? "
After hearing Elder Wei's words, Yao Lei's expression changed drastically.
One had to know that Linlong's side did not even have a single person who could activate a level-five ice talisman.
While he was still in shock, Elder Wei added, "Don't worry. Once we take down Linlong, we will immediately help you remove the poison from your Ten Days Heart Pill!"
Hearing this, Yao Lei nodded and said, "Alright then, I'll rely on you."
"Very good." Elder Wei revealed a smile upon hearing Yao Lei's words.
"Now, tell me, other than you, who else is on Linlong's side?"
"Other than me, there are two other members of the Black Kill as well. One of them is Elder Wang of the Black Kill, and the other is Hall Master Xing," Yao Lei said.
"Elder Wang and Hall Master Xing of the Black Assassins?" Hearing this, Elder Wei furrowed his brows. To be honest, the Black Murder Organization was very mysterious. Even he did not know the structure of the organization. Therefore, he did not dare to guarantee that he would be able to find these two people.
"Apart from these two people?" He immediately asked.
"Apart from these two, there are two other people who have completely mastered Level 4 Frost Talismans. One of them is called Yang Sheng, and the other is called Shi Xu!" Yao Lei replied.
"It's actually those two!" Elder Wei couldn't help but be surprised.
Others might not know who these two people were, but Elder Wei knew who they were.
Although he was surprised, he believed that he could also persuade these two people to join his side.
"Very good, you've done a good job …" He praised. After a short pause, he asked, "After you return this time, did Linlong say when he will enter the Catacombs again?"
"I don't know … He said that he will inform us when he is going to enter again," Yao Lei said.
"Alright." Nodding, Elder Wei patted Yao Lei's shoulder and said, "Inform me immediately when he is going out!"
"Elder Wei, don't worry," Yao Lei promised.
After that, Elder Wei walked out. Naturally, he went to look for Yang Sheng and Shi Xu.
When Yao Lei was sure that no one was watching him, he immediately walked out.
Naturally, he went to look for Linlong.
Elder Wei's words had indeed threatened him, but after careful consideration, he still chose to side with Linlong.
Other than not wanting to follow in the footsteps of Yang Yanliang and Ren Kaicheng, it was also because of the strength that Linlong had displayed. Although Linlong could only activate Level 4 frost talismans now, Elder Wei believed that Linlong would soon be able to activate Level 5 frost talismans.
Other than that, of course, it was also because the deputy dean had previously stood on Linlong's side. Elder Wei believed that the deputy dean would stand up again when Linlong was in danger.
Therefore, after careful consideration, Elder Wei immediately went to look for Linlong.
Not long after, he arrived outside Linlong's door.
After knocking on the door, Linlong's rather displeased voice came from inside. Linlong was currently thinking about how to draw runes. Of course, he was unhappy that someone had suddenly interrupted him.
"Young Master Lin, it's me, Yao Lei!" Yao Lei said immediately.
"Mm, Yao Lei, what's the matter?" Linlong asked.
"It's like this. Just now, Elder Wei came to look for me and asked me to join them …"
Before Yao Lei could finish, Linlong said, "Come in and talk!"
He immediately opened the door and let Yao Lei in.
Yao Lei walked in immediately.
"Nobody followed you, right?" Linlong asked.
As he asked, he used his Divine Telekinesis to sense the surrounding situation. What made him heave a sigh of relief was that nobody was following Yao Lei.
Because of this, he chose to believe Yao Lei.
"Say it," Linlong said.
Yao Lei said, "Just now, Elder Wei wanted me to join them and threatened me that people from the Yang Family were also here. One of them was an expert who could activate a level-five ice talisman. Apart from that, he also said that the academy's Third Elder was also persuaded by them …"
"Third Elder?" Linlong could not help but ask.
Seeing that Linlong clearly did not know much about the Third Elder, Yao Lei hurriedly said, "The Third Elder is also an expert who can activate a level-five ice talisman."
"In other words, if they are not wrong, they have two experts who can activate a level-five ice talisman?" Linlong frowned.
If that was really the case, it would naturally be a great threat to him. After all, they did not have two people who could activate a level-five ice talisman.
He could not help but heave a sigh of relief when he thought about the joint attack technique that Yao Lei and the others could master, as well as the Purple Fire Talisman that he was currently making.
"That's right." Yao Lei nodded.
"Then what did you say back then?" Linlong looked at Yao Lei and asked.
"At that time, I chose to feign civility and pretended to rely on them. However, since they should know how many people we have, I also told them about the others. Other than that, I didn't tell them anything else," Yao Lei said.
"Yes." Linlong nodded.
If Yao Lei really chose to side with him, Yao Lei's choice was not wrong.
"Then why do you stand on my side? Is the strength that they have displayed not terrifying?" Linlong then asked.
"The strength that they have displayed is naturally terrifying, but I choose to believe in Young Master!" Yao Lei said respectfully.
"Very good." Linlong nodded and then said, "Go and find Elder Wang immediately."
"Yes!" Yao Lei responded and immediately went to find Elder Wang.
Not long after, he found Elder Wang.
"Yao Lei has already told you about the matter, right?" Linlong asked the moment Elder Wang came over.
"Yes, I already know what happened." Elder Wang nodded.
"Then immediately find Yang Sheng and Shi Xu and tell them about this matter!" Linlong immediately said.
"What if they have seen Elder Wei or have already surrendered to Elder Wei?" Elder Wang asked worriedly.
"When the time comes, you will act according to the circumstances!" Linlong said coldly.
If those two wanted to surrender to Elder Wei, there was nothing he could do. After all, the Ten Days Heart Attack Pill could not prevent them from betraying him like the Life Listening Pill.
"Yes!" After responding, Elder Wang immediately walked out.
Not long after, Elder Wang saw Yang Sheng and Shi Xu.
Yang Sheng and Shi Xu's residences were adjacent, so Elder Wang found them at the same time.
When they saw Elder Wang, Yang Sheng and Shi Xu greeted respectfully, "Elder Wang!"
"Both of you, did Elder Wei come to find you just now?" Elder Wang asked.
Yang Sheng and Shi Xu looked at each other before Yang Sheng said, "Yes, Elder Wei came to find us and just left."
"Oh, then do you plan to surrender to Elder Wei and what else?" Elder Wang asked directly.
"This … We are still considering." Shi Xu could not help but say.
"Then let me tell you, if you really surrender to them, then don't even think about removing the poison in your body from the Ten Days Heart Attack Pill. When the time is up, you will die!" Elder Wang said coldly.
Hearing Elder Wang's words, Yang Sheng and Shi Xu could not help but break out in cold sweat.
Elder Wang continued, "If you continue to follow Young Master Lin, you will definitely benefit greatly. You also know that Young Master Lin's talent is astonishing. When the time comes, if he gives you some pointers, you might be able to easily grasp Grade 5 Ice Talismans!
"Moreover, the strength behind Young Master Lin is not weak. Vice Dean stood out to support him, so don't be afraid just because the other party has an expert who can activate Grade 5 Ice Talismans … Also, Young Master Lin will definitely be able to create Purple Flame Talismans. When that time comes, even an expert who can activate Grade 5 Ice Talismans will not be able to do anything to him!
"Alright, that's all I have to say. You can make your own choice. I only hope that you will not regret it when the time comes!"
As he spoke, Elder Wang turned around and left.
Watching Elder Wang leave, the two of them fell silent for a while. To be honest, they were really threatened by Elder Wei's words earlier.
However, when they thought of the Ten Days Heart Attack Pill, they chose to use words to calm Elder Wei down.
Now that they heard Elder Wang's words, they were even more hesitant.
After a while, Shi Xu could not help but look at Yang Sheng and ask, "Yang Sheng, what do you think?"
"This, I'll think about it again." Yang Sheng frowned.
Right now, no matter which side he chose, he could fall into an abyss of eternal damnation. Naturally, he had to be cautious.
…
Before they knew it, two days had passed. On the morning of the third day, in Lin Long's house, Lin Long was concentrating on drawing something on a piece of talisman paper.
His drawing on the talisman paper seemed simple, but if someone was beside him, they would definitely notice that his entire body was already soaked in sweat.
There was only one last step left. Hopefully this time it would succeed! Lin Long thought to himself.
In these two days, he had already experimented many times, but without exception, he had failed.
Since there was not much blood essence left in the Purple Tiger, he naturally hoped that it would succeed. Otherwise, he would have to go to the Western Catacombs to hunt the Purple Tiger again.
However, this time, he was very confident.
Before he knew it, fifteen minutes had passed. After that, Lin Long's final stroke was perfectly drawn.
As soon as the stroke was drawn, a smile appeared on Lin Long's face. This was because the talisman he had drawn had completely integrated with the talisman paper. In other words, the Purple Flame Talisman was successfully drawn.
After the successful stroke, he continued to use the remaining materials to draw.
After this success, the next stroke was unexpectedly smooth. However, because there was not much blood essence left in the Purple Tiger, he could only successfully draw three Purple Flame Talismans in the end.
With these three Purple Flame Talismans, he should be able to solve the secret at the center of the northern palace, Lin Long thought to himself.
With that thought in mind, he called Elder Wang over.
"Young Master, how is it? Have you drawn the Purple Flame Talisman?" Seeing Lin Long and looking at the materials on the table in front of him, Elder Wang asked.
"Yes, I've drawn the Purple Flame Talisman." Lin Long nodded.
"Then, we should be able to solve the secret at the center of the northern palace," Elder Wang could not help but exclaim in joy.
At this moment, Lin Long asked, "Elder Wang, how is the situation outside? Did Elder Wei and the others find you and Hall Master Xing? What did Yang Sheng and Shi Xu choose?"
"Hall Master Xing and I are very secretive, so Elder Wei did not find us. As for Yang Sheng and Shi Xu, although they verbally agreed to follow you, I feel that they are clearly wavering!" Elder Wang said.
"Is that so? Call them over!" Lin Long said directly.
"Yes!" After responding, Elder Wang immediately walked out.
Soon, he called Yang Sheng and Shi Xu over.
