They noticed that Mo Fei, who was at the side, also had a surprised expression. Obviously, even Mo Fei did not know where the supreme elder was.
"Supreme elder, where are you?" Mo Fei could not help but ask.
"Mo Fei, you don't have to worry about that. You only need to let them tell us what they know," the supreme elder said.
His voice still sounded like it was right next to their ears. Elder Liang and the rest had no way of determining his location.
This was going to be difficult. How were they going to attack him later? Elder Liang and the rest could not help but worry.
Mo Fei had not expected such a situation. He could only reply, "Alright."
With that, he looked towards Elder Liang and said, "Elder Liang, tell the supreme elder everything you know in detail."
Since he had no way of knowing the other party's location, Elder Liang could only say, "Supreme elder, we met Zhou Ling in River Source City. At that time …"
Before he could continue, the supreme elder suddenly said, "Wait!"
"Supreme elder, what's wrong?" Mo Fei asked in confusion.
The supreme elder suddenly sneered. "Could it be that you're plotting something? Among the people you brought in, there are quite a few experts who can activate Grade 5 Ice Talismans. What exactly are you planning?"
They had been discovered. This was bad! Elder Liang and the rest all frowned.
Of course, they were not worried that the Zhou family could do anything to them. After all, given their strength, they could completely do as they pleased in the Zhou family.
They were only worried that news of their visit to the Zhou family would spread. After all, there might be other factions behind the Zhou family, even those from the imperial city.
Hearing this, Mo Fei broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly said, "Supreme elder, I don't think so. They are only experts who can activate grade 4 ice talismans."
"Hehe, Mo Fei, I didn't think that you would betray me in the end after I thought so highly of you!" The supreme elder sneered.
At this moment, Lin Long, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "He's right in front of us. Elder Liang, all of you just need to take out the ice talismans and attack in front of us!"
Right in front of us? Elder Liang and the rest were dumbfounded when they heard Lin Long's words.
There was nothing in front of them. There was no one there.
Although they were puzzled, they immediately took out their Level Five Ice Talismans.
It was at this moment that the Supreme Elder said in surprise, "Kid, how did you find out where I was?"
"You don't need to know that?" Lin Long said with a faint smile.
While he was speaking, Elder Liang and the others had already activated their Grade 5 Ice Talismans. In the next instant, streams of cold air rushed forward.
In just a short period of time, crackling sounds could be heard in front of them, as if something was frozen. Very quickly, pieces of ice formed in front of them. Once these ice fragments were formed, they could clearly see a person sitting in front of them.
This person's hair and beard were all white and he looked to be in his seventies or eighties. It was exactly the appearance of the Zhou Family Grand Elder that Mo Fei had described.
Very quickly, they discovered that there was a runic formation surrounding the Great Elder. It seemed that it was because of this runic formation that Elder Liang and the rest were unable to see the Great Elder.
Just as they were wondering what kind of Runic Magic Array this was, the Runic Magic Array was completely destroyed.
It had been destroyed by an incomparably powerful cold air.
Once the Runic Magic Array was destroyed, the Great Elder hurriedly took out his Ice Talismans. Even though he had taken out a Level Five Ice Talisman, it was completely unable to withstand the attacks of Elder Liang and the rest.
In just a short period of time, he could no longer hold on. His body was completely frozen, and the surface of his body was covered in ice.
"Who exactly … are you? What … do you want … in our Zhou Family?" The Great Elder used the last of his strength to shout.
After shouting, he immediately fell to the ground.
At this moment, Lin Long realized that Elder Liang and the rest had withdrawn the cold air.
Kacha!
At this moment, a crisp sound came from underground. It seemed to be the sound of some kind of mechanism being activated. However, because they did not discover anything unusual, Elder Liang and the rest did not take it to heart. They continued to stare at the Great Elder before them.
However, Lin Long said coldly, "Great Elder, there's still one more person. Where did he go?"
"You are indeed powerful!" The Great Elder said with narrowed eyes.
In the beginning, he did not put Lin Long in his eyes at all. Instead, he focused all his attention on Elder Liang and the rest.
The reason was very simple. He could not sense any expert's strength from Lin Long at all.
However, he realized that he was wrong. Lin Long could actually see that he was right in front of him. Not only that, he could also see that there was actually another person.
"However, why would I tell you where he went? What I want to say is that you are all finished!" The Great Elder sneered.
"Zhou Tongsheng, you are already a prisoner. Why are you still so stubborn!" Feng Tian said coldly.
The Great Elder's name was Zhou Tongsheng. Naturally, Mo Fei was the one who told Feng Tian this name.
"It's not that I'm stubborn. It's the truth." Zhou Tongsheng said proudly.
"Is that so?" Lin Long smiled indifferently.
Then, his figure moved and directly appeared in front of Zhou Tongsheng.
"What are you doing?" Zhou Tongsheng was shocked. He wanted to dodge, but he could not even move.
In the next moment, Lin Long directly placed a seal on his body.
"What kind of technique is this?" Zhou Tongsheng was shocked. Before he finished his words, he was already rolling on the ground in pain.
In just a short while, he began to beg for mercy. "Young master, please spare me, please spare me …"
Such a situation made Mo Fei, who was standing at the side, break out in a cold sweat.
Young master Lin's technique was probably unparalleled in the entire Deepfrost Continent. Even the Great Elder couldn't withstand the torture. Mo Fei couldn't help but think that way.
Seeing that Zhou Tongsheng could not hold on any longer, Lin Long removed the seal and coldly said, "Tell me honestly. Otherwise, I don't mind letting you try again."
How could Zhou Tongsheng dare to try Lin Long's seal again? He immediately said, "That person has already escaped through the tunnel."
Previously, when he discovered that Lin Long had seen through their position, he immediately let that person escape.
"Oh, who is he? Where did he go?" Lin Long asked.
"He is actually a subordinate of the Icepeak Nation's Crown Prince." Zhou Tongsheng said.
"The Icepeak Nation's Crown Prince!" Hearing Zhou Tongsheng's words, Elder Liang and the others were shocked.
"The person behind you is the Crown Prince?" Lin Long asked with a frown.
"That's right. This old man didn't want to make a move against Zhou Han and the others, but the Crown Prince forced me to make a move. So, I had no choice but to step out and take the position of Patriarch of the Zhou Clan," Zhou Tongsheng said.
"I originally thought that it was because of your grandson. Who would have thought that the Crown Prince was behind it?" Lin Long said.
"There's no other way." Zhou Tongsheng smiled bitterly.
After confirming this point, Elder Liang and the others began to frown.
The Crown Prince's side was much stronger than the Zhou Clan. If they were not careful, they might even become enemies with the entire Icepeak Nation. This was something that Lin Long did not want to see.
The most important thing now was to capture the person who escaped and prevent the Crown Prince from finding out about this. Such a thought flashed through Lin Long's mind.
However, the other party had already escaped and it was already too late to chase after him. He could only think of another way.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. He noticed that there was a piece of clothing behind Zhou Tongsheng that didn't seem to belong to Zhou Tongsheng.
He immediately asked, "Zhou Tongsheng, did that piece of clothing belong to the person who escaped?"
"That's right. He escaped in a hurry and didn't put it on, so he left it here," Zhou Tongsheng said with a nod.
"Then I have an idea." Lin Long's face revealed a hint of joy. He immediately released the bamboo rat and let it sense the aura on the clothes.
Since it was the person's clothes, the bamboo rat could naturally sense the person's aura.
To his delight, the bamboo rat could indeed sense the person's aura from the clothes.
Lin Long immediately asked, "Where is the end of the passage?"
"It's at the southernmost part of our Zhou Clan," Zhou Tongsheng said.
"Then let's leave this place immediately and chase in that direction!" Lin Long immediately said.
After saying that, he let Zhou Tongsheng lead the way and left.
This was a forbidden area, so the small commotion did not alarm the people outside. Therefore, when the group of people left, the people outside did not react. They were just surprised that Supreme Elder Zhou Tongsheng followed these people out.
Soon, they arrived at the southernmost exit of the Zhou Clan's tunnel.
Although the exit was already closed, Lin Long was sure that the other party had already left.
After confirming the other party's direction of escape, Lin Long released the bamboo rat to chase after him.
After chasing for a while, a smile appeared on Lin Long's face because the bamboo rat had already sensed the other party's aura.
Without any hesitation, Lin Long immediately chased after him as fast as he could.
Although there was a dense forest in front of him, Lin Long quickly locked onto the other party with the bamboo rat's senses.
To his surprise, the other party seemed to have also sensed danger, so he obviously sped up.
However, he was still a little slower than Linlong. Hence, it didn't take long for Lin Long to block his way.
This person was also an old man who looked to be in his fifties. However, his face was very fair and clean, and he did not have a long beard. He should be a eunuch.
This person's strength was not weak either. He should also be an expert who could activate a fifth-grade ice talisman.
"How did you catch up to me?!" The person could not help but exclaim when he saw Lin Long appear.
As he spoke, he took out his fifth-grade ice talisman. He knew that there were still people chasing after him, so he naturally wanted to get rid of Lin Long as soon as possible before continuing to escape.
As for Lin Long, he took out his fifth-grade ice talisman as well.
"No way! You can also activate a fifth-grade ice talisman?" The eunuch's eyes widened when he saw Lin Long take out a fifth-grade ice talisman.
Just like Zhou Tongsheng, he did not think that Lin Long had any strength. After all, Lin Long was too young. Now that he saw Lin Long take out such an ice talisman, he was naturally surprised.
"Do you think I would lie to you?" Lin Long smiled calmly.
After saying that, he silently chanted a rune term. The eunuch did not dare to be careless, and he also silently chanted a rune term.
As soon as Lin Long's cold aura was activated, the eunuch's face turned grim. This was because Lin Long could really activate a fifth-grade ice talisman.
Most importantly, the cold aura that Lin Long activated seemed to be above his.
'Damn it! Could it be that this person has already begun to cultivate ice talismans even before he was born?' The eunuch could not help but curse inwardly.
If that was not the case, how could he have mastered a fifth-grade ice talisman at such a young age?
He had never seen such an expert at such a young age.
Having fallen into a disadvantageous position, the eunuch could not hold on any longer. His body began to tremble uncontrollably. At this moment, Elder Liang, Zhou Tongsheng, and the others had also caught up.
Zhou Tongsheng's eyes widened in shock when he saw this scene. Although Lin Long's performance was very eye-catching, he still did not believe that Lin Long was as strong as him.
He did not expect Lin Long to be able to defeat the first prince's subordinate by himself.
'Just who is this young man? How can he master a fifth-grade ice talisman at such a young age!' Zhou Tongsheng could not help but exclaim inwardly.
Seeing that the others had arrived, the eunuch, who was forcefully holding on, immediately collapsed and knelt on the ground.
Only then did Lin Long remove the cold aura and walk in front of the eunuch.
"You are the first prince's subordinate?" Lin Long asked.
Hearing Lin Long's words, the eunuch could not help but raise his head and glare at Zhou Tongsheng. He knew that Zhou Tongsheng must have betrayed him.
'I was forced to do this.' Zhou Tongsheng laughed bitterly in his heart.
Since his identity had already been exposed, the eunuch did not hide it anymore. He immediately said coldly, "That's right, I am the first prince's subordinate. If you know what's good for you, immediately lower your heads and admit your mistakes to me, then submit to the first prince!"
"Do you think that's possible?" Lin Long could not help but laugh.
"How is it not possible? The first prince is the future successor to the throne. His strength is not something you can compare to! "the eunuch said arrogantly.
"So what if he becomes the emperor of the Icepeak Country? Young Master Lin can easily trample on him!" Seeing how arrogant the eunuch was, Elder Liang could not help but say.
Elder Liang was not just arguing. He truly believed that Lin Long could do this.
"Hehe, he's just a slightly talented person. How can he compare to the emperor's son?" the eunuch said arrogantly.
Lin Long was somewhat speechless. He had no interest in making such a comparison.
He immediately waved his hand, indicating for Elder Liang not to argue with the eunuch. Then, he said, "The first prince asked you to do this because he wants to obtain the Calming Pill's pill formula from Zhou Han, right?"
"That's right. The first prince wants to obtain the Calming Pill's pill formula from Zhou Han, but the pill formula was stolen for some reason. Therefore, he could only think of a way to get his hands on the alchemist. Unfortunately, he has not been able to find him … As I feel that the alchemist will definitely come looking for Zhou Han again, I have been staying in the Zhou Clan," the eunuch said.
Hearing this, Lin Long understood. He immediately wanted to find Zhou Han and ask him who exactly had stolen the Calming Pill's pill formula.
He did not want the pill formula to fall into someone else's hands for no reason.
Therefore, he immediately brought a group of people back to the Zhou Clan.
Once he returned, he asked someone to bring Zhou Han to him.
Since it was Zhou Tongsheng's order, no one suspected anything.
