Linlong then said to Zhou Yingxue, "Miss Zhou, may I have a word with you?"
"Of course." Zhou Yingxue nodded.
The two of them walked to the side. Although Zhang Yue was curious about what the two of them wanted to talk about, she didn't follow them.
"Young Master Lin, what's the matter?" Zhou Yingxue asked after walking to the side.
"I want to know how to enter the sacrificial altar in the imperial city." Linlong went straight to the point.
"Young Master Lin, where do you want to go?" Zhou Yingxue couldn't help but be alarmed.
One must know that the sacrificial altar was a forbidden area in the imperial city. Even someone of the third princess' status couldn't enter.
"There's something very important that I need to do," Linlong said.
"Is that so … It's very difficult to enter the sacrificial altar. Even someone of the third princess' status can't enter," Zhou Yingxue said.
Linlong furrowed his brows and asked, "Is there no other way?"
Zhou Yingxue thought for a moment and said, "There is a way … A month from now, the imperial city will host a martial competition. The participants will be the young geniuses of the various families and factions. If you obtain a good ranking in the competition, you will have the opportunity to enter the secret realm of the imperial city. The sacrificial altar is in the secret realm. There is only one such competition every year, so this is Young Master Lin's only chance. "
"Miss Zhou, are you saying that I should disguise myself as a young genius of a certain family or faction?" Linlong couldn't help but ask.
"Disguise? That's very difficult. "Zhou Yingxue shook her head.
"Then what should we do?"
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. You can enter the secret realm as a servant of a certain young genius. However, you must first have the strength to activate a grade 3 ice talisman. Young Master's current strength naturally meets this condition," Zhou Yingxue said.
"Miss Zhou, are you saying that you should find a powerful young genius and become his subordinate?" Linlong asked.
"That's exactly what I mean. However, there's no need for you to find one. There's someone who fits the criteria, and that's me, Miss Zhou." Zhou Yingxue smiled.
Linlong wasn't surprised by Zhou Yingxue's words. After all, Zhou Yingxue was a good friend of the third princess. Her status definitely wasn't ordinary.
"Miss Zhou, can you tell me your identity?" Linlong asked curiously.
"Me? I'm the second daughter of the Zhou Clan of the Imperial City. The Zhou Clan is considered a major force in the Imperial City," Zhou Yingxue said.
"I see. Then I'll have to trouble you for the rest of the time, Miss Zhou." Linlong nodded.
"You're welcome, Young Master Lin. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to comprehend the Absolute Silence Rune." Zhou Yingxue smiled.
After speaking, the two of them returned to the crowd.
At this moment, Zhang Yue asked curiously, "Big Brother Linlong, Big Sister Zhou, what did you two talk about?"
"Naturally, I am talking about the matter of you following. Young Master Lin has already decided that if we go to the Imperial City, we will go to my home. When the time comes, you will also benefit from it." Zhou Yingxue smiled.
"Sister Zhou, you can't drive me away," Zhang Yue said with a smile.
"Of course, you're my good sister." Zhou Yingxue smiled again.
After a period of contact, the relationship between the two was getting better and better.
After that, Linlong said to the others. "Let's head straight to the Imperial City!"
Immediately, the group of them headed in the direction of the Imperial City.
After half a day, Shen Jun had no choice but to part ways with them. This was because the Shen Family was not in the same direction as Linlong and the others.
After Shen Jun left, they continued to head in the direction of the Imperial City.
During this period of time, Linlong naturally took the time to teach others apart from Zhou Yingxue to comprehend the Absolute Silence Rune.
As there was no Absolute Silence Runic Array nearby, they could only rely on their memories to recall the runes that they comprehended.
Fortunately, they had a deep impression of those runes. Therefore, they could basically write down those runes.
This way, Linlong would be able to find the Absolute Silence Rune that was suitable for them.
However, as there was no Absolute Silence Runic Array nearby, they could only wait until the next time they entered an Absolute Silence Runic Array to comprehend it.
After half a day, they stopped at a teahouse outside the city.
They did not intend to enter the city. Instead, they planned to rest for a while before continuing on their journey.
Just as they sat down, before they even took a sip of tea, another seven people walked into the teahouse.
A look of surprise appeared on Linlong's face when he saw these people, because two of them were clearly powerhouses who could activate level-5 Ice Talismans.
At this time, Linlong and the others were no longer wearing their masks. Apart from Linlong, everyone else showed their true faces.
After the few people glanced at the scene, they sat down not far from Linlong and the others.
As soon as they sat down, a girl about 15 or 16 years old in the teahouse hurried over to them.
For some reason, after a while, one of the few people was obviously displeased with the girl.
Not only did he scold her, but he also pushed the girl.
The girl was just an ordinary person. How could she withstand such a push? She was pushed to the ground directly.
When she fell, her head even hit the corner of the table next to her, causing blood to flow from her head.
Seeing the situation, a shopkeeper in his forties immediately rushed out and said in displeasure, "My lords, I don't know what my daughter has done to offend you. How dare you hit her like this!"
As this place was under the jurisdiction of Windsong City, he felt that these people would definitely not dare to act recklessly, which was why they dared to say such words. Otherwise, they would not even dare to say a word.
After all, these people were not ordinary people at all.
Obviously, the girl who was pushed was his daughter, which was why he was so angry.
"Haha, so what if I pushed your daughter? Even if the Windsong City's City Lord stood in front of me, I would still dare to push him. Do you believe me? "The person who attacked said coldly.
The other party's words obviously frightened the shopkeeper, and he did not dare to say anything for a while.
At this time, seeing that the little girl was really pitiful, Zhang Yue hurriedly walked over to help her up. At the same time, she took out her healing medicine and gave it to the little girl.
Seeing that she was like this, the person who pushed the little girl could not help but look at her and said coldly, "I say, young lady, you shouldn't interfere in some things that you shouldn't. Otherwise, it'll be bad if you cause trouble for yourself!"
Seeing that this person was so rude and unreasonable even after doing something bad, Zhang Yue could not help but be angry. She originally did not want to cause trouble, but she could not help but look at the other party and said, "I say, you're unreasonable!"
After all, she was from a big family. How could she withstand such provocation from the other party?
"Reasonable? The people of my Yang family are reasonable! "The person said coldly.
At this time, a middle-aged man in his forties suddenly shouted at Zhang Yue, "If you don't want to die, get lost!"
This person was obviously the leader of these people, and he was obviously an expert who could activate a Level Five Ice Talisman.
Of course, only Linlong could see it. How could Zhang Yue see it?
"Get lost? I'm not that easy to bully! "Hearing this, Zhang Yue was completely enraged.
She had never been scolded like this before.
"In that case, I can only teach you a good lesson. I'll let you know the price of provoking the wrong person!" The fierce-looking man who pushed the little girl stood up immediately and stared at Zhang Yue.
As he spoke, he was already holding an Ice Talisman in his hand. Obviously, he wanted to teach Zhang Yue a lesson here.
Seeing that the other party was holding a Level Three Ice Talisman, Zhang Yue could not help but take a step back. She knew that she was no match for him.
At this time, Yang Sheng, who had been instructed by Linlong, stood up.
"It's just a Level Three Ice Talisman. How dare you be so arrogant? Aren't you afraid that someone will break your legs one day? "Yang Sheng smiled faintly as he looked at the Level Three Ice Talisman in that person's hand.
As he spoke, he took out the Level Four Ice Talisman on him.
"Level Four Ice Talisman!" The person's expression changed when he saw the Level Four Ice Talisman in Yang Sheng's hand.
In the next moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Level Four Ice Talisman is nothing!"
Before he could finish speaking, the person beside him stood up and said, "Second Young Master, let me deal with this person."
As he spoke, the person also took out a Level Four Ice Talisman.
As soon as he took out the Level Four Ice Talisman, another person on Linlong's side stood up. This person was Elder Hu. As soon as he stood up, he immediately took out a Level Five Ice Talisman.
"Level Five Ice Talisman!" As soon as the Level Five Ice Talisman appeared, the faces of the few people opposite them changed.
"I didn't expect such a small tea house to be filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons!" The middle-aged man from before couldn't help but sneer.
After speaking, he stood up and glanced at Elder Hu. Then, his gaze swept towards Linlong's group.
After that, his expression changed again because he could see that there were other experts on Linlong's side who could activate the Level Five Ice Talisman.
However, it was only a slight change. Very quickly, his expression returned to normal.
At this moment, he no longer had any intention of going against Linlong's group. After all, even if he won, he would have to pay a huge price.
"Everyone, this conflict is merely a misunderstanding. Therefore, I hope that all of you will not pursue this matter for the sake of the Yang Family of Jia Shang City."
When he mentioned the Yang Clan of Jia Shang City, a proud expression appeared on his face. After all, the Yang Clan of Jia Shang City was a well-known name in the Imperial City.
When they heard his words, the shop owner and the others' expressions changed. He knew that even their city lord didn't dare to show any disrespect to the Yang Family.
The Yang family of Jia Shang City? Could it be that these people were related to Yang Yanliang? Could it be that they were going to the Mask Academy because of Yang Yanliang? When he heard the middle-aged man's words, such a thought immediately flashed through Linlong's mind.
Elder Liang and Yao Lei were lagging behind and weren't with them right now. Otherwise, Elder Liang would be able to tell with a single glance if these people were from the Yang Family.
When these thoughts flashed through Linlong's mind, Zhang Yue indignantly said, "So what if they are from the Yang Family? They can't hurt people for no reason!"
Zhang Yue naturally knew about the Yang Family, but she didn't think of Yang Yanliang.
When he heard Zhang Yue's words, the middle-aged man's anger rose again. The second young master even wanted to smash the table, but he was pressed down by the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Young lady, it is indeed our fault. Therefore, we are willing to compensate for all your losses."
"That's more like it." The middle-aged man's words naturally made Zhang Yue's face light up.
Immediately, the middle-aged man got someone beside him to take out a bag of Deep Frost Coins. After handing it to the shopkeeper, the group of people left in a hurry.
At this moment, the shopkeeper couldn't help but look at Zhang Yue and the others. "Young lady, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, our family would be in danger."
At this moment, the shopkeeper couldn't help but look at Zhang Yue and the others. "Young lady, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, our family would be in danger."
"Shopkeeper, don't stand on ceremony. It is our young master's duty to help out righteously," Zhang Yue said at this moment.
As she spoke, she looked at Linlong.
This girl … Linlong couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
Hearing her words, the shopkeeper hurriedly walked in front of Linlong and thanked him. "Thank you, young master!"
"Shopkeeper, don't stand on ceremony." Linlong waved his hand and looked at the crowd. "We should also leave."
"Leave so quickly?" The others were a little confused.
One must know that because of this matter, some of them didn't even have a sip of tea.
Linlong ignored them and directly walked out.
Seeing him like this, the others hurriedly followed.
Elder Wang, who knew something, asked after walking out, "Young master, is it because they are from the Yang Family?"
"Yang Family? Jia Shang City's Yang Family? So they are from Yang Yanliang's side! "Hearing Elder Wang's words, Yao Lei and Hall Master Xing also thought of something.
As soon as the two of them spoke, the others immediately understood what was going on.
Zhang Yue couldn't help but slap her own head. "Sigh, I was foolish. To think that I couldn't tell that they were from Yang Yanliang's side."
"They are definitely here to deal with me because of Yang Yanliang. Let's follow them!" Linlong immediately said.
At this moment, Elder Liang and Yao Lei, who were lagging behind, also rushed over.
After giving them a simple explanation, Linlong led the crowd in the direction that those few people had left in.
The other party was his enemy, so he didn't mind eliminating them at the root to prevent future troubles.
The direction that the other party was heading in further confirmed his guess. They were heading in the direction of the Mask Academy.
With the strength of the people on his side, they were more than enough to deal with the other party. Thus, Linlong didn't bother concealing himself at all. Instead, he brazenly followed behind them.
Very quickly, the other party also noticed this and came to a stop.
At this moment, they were in a forest outside the city.
Looking at Linlong, the second young master asked coldly, "May I know why the few of you are following us?"
This person was clearly Yang Yanliang's brother, but there was a huge difference in their appearance.
"Nothing much. I just wanted to ask you where you are going," Linlong replied with a smile.
His words clearly shocked the other party. The second young master immediately said, "What does where we are going have to do with you?"
"Of course it has something to do with us. We might be the people you are looking for," Linlong replied with a smile.
