Shopkeeper Huang could not help but ask, "Then weren't you the Elder Li I came into contact with before?"
"Yes, I was the one who came into contact with you before," said the man in black.
"Then did you just borrow Elder Li's name, or is there really an Elder Li in the Blazing Wing Gate?" Shopkeeper Huang asked again.
"There really is an Elder Li in the Blazing Wing Gate. I am his subordinate, and you are also his subordinate. However, my rank is slightly higher than yours," said the man in black.
"Is that so?" Shopkeeper Huang nodded.
The others also roughly understood.
"Then, where is Elder Li now? Also, do you know more about the Blazing Wing Gate than Shopkeeper Huang? "Linlong asked directly.
"I know about the Blazing Wing Gate about the same as Shopkeeper Huang. I just know a little more than him," said the man in black.
"Is the Blazing Wing Gate so cautious that they won't reveal anything?" Linlong could not help but frown.
"Yes." The man in black nodded.
"I believe that you were forced to consume poison before you listened to Elder Li, right?" Linlong asked again.
"That's right. I was forced to consume poison like Shopkeeper Huang, so I can only listen to Elder Li and the illusory Blazing Wing Gate," said the man in black.
"Then where is Elder Li now? What's his identity? "Linlong asked again.
After hearing the man in black's words, he felt that the man in black should know this.
"Elder Li is Eunuch Qi who just came from the imperial city?" asked the man in black.
"Is that true?" Linlong could not help but be a little surprised.
He was not the only one. Qian Jiayi and the others were the same. They did not dare to believe the man in black. After all, Eunuch Qi was an expert in the imperial city.
However, when they thought that Eunuch Qi might have also been forced to consume poison, they felt relieved.
"It's true. In any case, I have always listened to Eunuch Qi's orders," said the man in black.
Then, he smiled bitterly. "I have said so much. If Eunuch Qi were to find out, he would definitely want my life. Moreover, the poison in my body is the same as Shopkeeper Huang's. I could die at any time."
"Don't worry. The young master has an antidote on him that is effective against that poison," said Shopkeeper Huang.
"Really?" The man in black was skeptical.
"Of course it's true. It's mostly because of this that I submitted to you, Young Master," Shopkeeper Huang said.
The man in black couldn't help but look at Lin Long when he heard Manager Huang's words.
"There is indeed such an antidote. However, before that, you must tell me your identity," Linlong said coldly.
"My name is Liu Shengyi, one of Eunuch Qi's subordinates. I usually move around the imperial city, only coming to Ice Origin City when there is something I need," the black-robed man said.
"Yes." Linlong nodded and asked, "Eunuch Qi didn't follow you this time, did he?"
Although he didn't sense anyone in the surroundings, Linlong felt that he had to be more cautious, which was why he asked such a question.
"No." Liu Shengyi shook his head.
After hearing what he said, Linlong took out a detoxification pill and threw it to him.
After catching it, Liu Shengyi examined it carefully before swallowing it. Not long after, a look of joy appeared on his face. Clearly, he could feel the effects of the detoxification pill.
"Given the current situation, we can't guarantee that the poison will be completely removed. So, you should take two more." After saying that, Linlong threw two more detoxification pills over.
"Thank you, Young Master!" After catching it, Liu Shengyi was overjoyed.
At this moment, Linlong asked, "Is Eunuch Qi still in Ice Origin City?"
"He should be in Ice Origin City," answered the black-robed man.
"Young Master, do you want us to rush to the city lord and capture Eunuch Qi?" Miao Feng asked.
"That's feasible. After all, we are stronger than Eunuch Qi and his subordinates. We can just barge in and capture Eunuch Qi," Dong Luo said.
However, Linlong shook his head and said, "No, that's dangerous. Moreover, our identities will be easily exposed. We have to ensure that nothing goes wrong, so we have to be more cautious."
If he really did that, the emperor would definitely suspect that they were the culprits. After all, only they had the strength to do so.
"It's indeed not good for you to do this. No matter what, it's better to wait for Eunuch Qi to leave Ice Origin City before making a move," Wang Yingxiang said.
"That's true." Hearing Wang Yingxiang's words, Dong Luo could not help but agree.
Nodding, Linlong said, "Let's wait for Eunuch Qi to leave Ice Origin City first, then find an opportunity to make a move."
After that, Linlong took out a Ten Days Heart Attack Pill and said to Liu Shengyi, "Take this Ten Days Heart Attack Pill."
"Ten Days Heart Attack Pill?" Looking at the pill in Linlong's hand, Liu Shengyi could not help but feel that something was wrong.
Linlong immediately told him about the effects of the Ten Days Heart Attack Pill.
After hearing that, Liu Shengyi's expression changed drastically. However, there was nothing he could do but swallow it obediently.
Only then did Linlong lead everyone back to Ice Origin City.
The night passed uneventfully. The next day, Eunuch Qi and the others left Ice Origin City and headed for Heyuan City.
Linlong and the others followed closely behind them. In order to ensure that there would be no accidents, Linlong was the closest to them, while the others kept a distance from him. This was naturally to prevent Eunuch Qi and the others from noticing anything.
Not long after, Eunuch Qi and the others walked into a forest.
After following them for a while, Linlong decided to make a move in the forest because it was clear that the other party had no intention of splitting up.
The reason why he dared to do so was because there were only three experts among the twenty or so people who could activate the level 5 Ice Talisman. With their strength, they could easily take them down.
After making up his mind, Linlong immediately activated his movement technique. After a few leaps, he appeared in front of them.
"Who are you? How dare you block our path? Are you courting death?" Seeing that Linlong dared to block their path alone, the two people at the front immediately shouted and drew their rune swords at the same time.
"I am Lin Jiaming," Linlong said calmly.
When they heard that voice, their expressions changed. Previously, Linlong had used the name Lin Jiaming to enter the secret realm with Qian Jiayi.
After confirming that Qian Jiayi had done something evil in the secret realm, these people naturally memorized the name Lin Jiaming. Thus, when they heard that name, their expressions changed.
"Lin Jiaming!" A similar voice came from the sedan chair.
After that, the curtain was pushed aside, revealing Eunuch Qi's gloomy face.
"As expected, you are Lin Jiaming!" Eunuch Qi said coldly when he saw Linlong's face.
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out of the sedan chair.
After walking out, his expression immediately became ugly. This was because he discovered that Qian Jiayi and the others had already surrounded them from the back.
Knowing that Linlong and the others would be difficult to deal with, he immediately shouted, "Take out the Ice Talisman!"
Before he finished speaking, his subordinates all took out the Ice Talisman on their bodies.
For a moment, the two groups of people were in a stalemate.
However, Eunuch Qi's people were clearly flustered because they knew how powerful Linlong and the others were.
