Lin Jin obviously wouldn't just wait around. There were so many monsters to deal with this time so it was necessary to be prepared.
As the sun set, dusk arrived.
Just then, a group of people arrived outside Ox Village. They seemed to be on their way but they moved like the wind and didn't speak to each other. While it seemed normal, upon closer inspection, one would notice that something was off.
Although this group of people looked no different from normal people, they seemed to lack a trace of vitality. Especially when they appeared at dusk, they gave off a strange vibe.
The group of people entered Ox Village, obviously looking for something.
However, they didn't find anything.
They couldn't be blamed for this because Lin Jin had already set up a formation to conceal the situation on his side. Even if that group of people walked right in front of Lin Jin and Huang Qi, they wouldn't notice at all.
Huang Qi was also dumbfounded as he watched.
Be it the creature or Lin Jin, they both knew that these seemingly ordinary people were actually just poltergeists under the monster's control.
These creatures didn't dare to come out when the sun was at its peak and would only come out at dusk.
As the saying went, if there were starved ghosts, there must be tiger demons.
Lin Jin had encountered something like this before and it reminded him of Hu Yuzhen from Mount Cang Liang. He wondered how strong this tigress was and if she would listen to him and stop eating humans for fun.
The group of strange starved ghosts didn't notice anything. They were now scattered all over Ox Village, each standing still with a glint in their eyes. Then, they shouted in unison, "Welcome, Bloody Wind Flag Master, Flaming Wind Flag Master, and Yin Wind Flag Master."
This time, the main characters had arrived.
Lin Jin perked up.
Just as Huang Qi had said, there were three Flag Masters this time.
A gust of cold wind blew up ahead and black fog surged. Soon, three people walked out.
These three people all had different appearances, but they were more like humans than Huang Qi. They did not look like half-human half-beast. Just from this, one could tell that the strength of these three people was much stronger than Huang Qi, who was just a dabbler.
At least, their Transfiguration skills were decent.
These three monsters were made up of two males and one female.
One of them had a big head and walked like the wind. His whole body was filled with killing intent. Another man had a head full of red hair like flames. The last woman was feminine. Her clothes were bare, and her face was covered with a thin veil. She had a mysterious and exotic style.
More than ten Poltergeist ghosts walked over and knelt down in front of the big-headed man.
"Reporting to the Flag Master, there is no trace of the Yellow Wind Flag Master, nor is there anyone else." A haunt ghost respectfully reported.
"Strange!" At this time, the big head's expression was not good. A pair of gloomy eyes swept around, "Although Huang Feng's cultivation is not good, he is at least one of the flag leaders. It is impossible for him to deal with ordinary people. How could he suddenly disappear?"
As he spoke, the other two flag masters also walked over and looked around.
"Blood Wind Flag Master, Ox Village has already been reduced to such a state. Could it be that the people here escaped, so Huang Feng went to other places to catch them?" The red-haired man analyzed.
"That can't be. Even if that's the case, he should have returned long ago. Although Huang Feng isn't much of a threat, he wouldn't dare violate the cave's rules. Something must have happened, "the only female monster said. Suddenly, as if she sensed something, she raised her arm. Immediately, more than ten snakes flew out from her sleeves and slithered around. One of them landed right where Lin Jin was, and the Camouflage Spell around him rippled.
He had been discovered!
While Lin Jin was shocked, he didn't hesitate.
With a flick of his wrist, several silver needles flew out.
Lin Jin's acupuncture skills had now reached an incredible level. Although these three monsters were much stronger than Huang Qi, they were still nothing to Lin Jin.
With the silver needles flying out, the Camouflage Spell was broken. The three monsters were startled, but they reacted quickly enough.
Unfortunately, Lin Jin's needles were even faster.
First up was the man with fiery red hair. Just as he was about to spit out a ball of fire, his acupuncture points were pierced by two needles. With a wail, he collapsed to the ground, unable to get up.
Sensing danger, the brawny man let out a tiger's roar, but it was useless. Then, just like the red-haired man, his acupuncture points were pierced by the needles, rendering him immobile.
The remaining Yin Wind Flag Master used several substitute snakes to block the needles. Knowing that he wasn't a match for Lin Jin, he immediately fled.
Lin Jin obviously wouldn't let him escape.
The oppressive aura of a ferocious beast came crashing down. Although the Yin Wind Flag Master was a Rank 4 monster, at Lin Jin's current level, a Rank 4 monster was nothing.
The needles flew out, and this time, the Yin Wind Flag Master followed in the footsteps of its two companions.
It was a one-sided slaughter.
Huang Qi had witnessed the entire process, and he was trembling in fear.
This was too powerful.
Any one of the three flag masters, Xue Feng, Huo Feng, and Yin Wind, were much stronger than him. Yet, all three of them were subdued in just two moves.
This was unbelievable.
Huang Qi was so frightened that he didn't dare to move. This time, he didn't need to use the monster sealing pill because he was truly afraid.
Without exception, the same went for the three new flag chiefs. They were fed a monster sealing pill by Lin Jin. At first, they were stubborn and fierce, but after suffering once, they became obedient.
Watching the three flag masters wail in pain under the control of the monster sealing pill, Huang Qi felt a strange feeling for some reason.
There was even a hint of smugness and schadenfreude.
It was as if he was saying, 'What I've suffered before, you guys should suffer once too.'
At the same time, this made Huang Qi understand that if he wanted to live, he had to obey this man's orders.
His mentality began to change.
Lin Jin interrogated the three newly captured flag bearers as well. Now that Lin Jin was experienced, he knew that after consuming a monster sealing pill, there was basically no way for them to turn the tables around unless they died.
It was just a matter of suffering more or less.
In less than four hours, the trio became well-behaved. By having Huang Qi explain the rules to them, Lin Jin had the intention of letting Huang Qi 'take the lead'. This naturally gave Huang Qi a sense of belonging.
Back in Black Wind Cave, he was the lowest-ranked flag master and was constantly bullied and humiliated. But now, with Lin Jin, he found his strength and the status he deserved.
Huang Qi didn't think it was that bad to be under this powerful man.
What would Black Wind Cave do next? This was what Lin Jin needed to figure out. Would the other party go all out?
If that was the case, he might as well make the first move.
However, after Huang Qi's analysis, he suggested Lin Jin wait a little longer.
"According to the rules of Black Wind Cave, if a Flag Master fails to return on time, they will send people out to search for him. This matter shouldn't be reported to the Cave Master. So next time, it's highly likely that some Flag Masters will come out to search. However, there might be more of them." Huang Qi had already begun to get into his role.
This was good.
Lin Jin needed someone like Huang Qi who could adapt to circumstances.
