Lin Jin gave Northern Qi's Xiang Yun a simple explanation of what it meant to 'die'. With her superior comprehension, she immediately understood what he meant.
No doubt, this was an appropriate metaphor.
"Moreover, just as Master Huo Yuan said, God Lord Yan would never do anything he wasn't confident in. Since the other party managed to find this place and even invited us here, it means that he's fully prepared. As for why he hasn't resorted to violence yet, I think it's because …" Lin Jin paused.
He knew why.
It was most likely because of the shock he received when he opened the door while wearing the Curator's mask.
This was the only reason. Otherwise, Lin Jin was sure that since God Lord Yan could find this hidden cave, he would surely launch a thunderous attack.
The people inside wouldn't even be able to react in time.
But now, God Lord Yan wanted to make peace. This could only mean one thing. God Lord Yan was afraid, and the reason was exactly as Lin Jin had deduced.
Similarly, Lin Jin believed that God Lord Yan had prepared enough force. As the saying went, 'Peaceful means before resorting to force'.
"You two stay here. I'll go meet God Lord Yan." Lin Jin quickly stopped him while saying, "Master, Lord Gai made it clear that he wants to talk to both of us. It wouldn't be appropriate for you to leave me out and I'm sure that if you go alone, you won't be able to come back." Lin Jin nodded and said, "Master, Lord Gai made it clear that he wants to talk to both of us. It wouldn't be appropriate for you to leave without me.
Since Lin Jin knew that God Lord Yan was well-prepared, he knew that God Lord Yan was testing him. His previous performance as if he had a powerful backer had made God Lord Yan wary.
However, if Lin Jin showed fear, God Lord Yan would definitely notice something was off based on his observation skills and shrewdness.
Lin Jin would most likely be exposed then.
After all, besides the last time they opened the door, 'Curator' had never truly met God Lord Yan.
Lin Jin wanted to appear as' Curator ', but if he did so, there was a higher chance of him being exposed. This time, he wasn't facing an average person or an average immortal. He was a super expert who had lived for thousands of years and was a true immortal. His observation skills, courage, and cultivation were all top-notch. He was the strongest enemy Lin Jin had ever met.
If Lin Jin were to use his Curator identity to meet the man, the moment he revealed a flaw or the man realized that the 'Curator' was just a facade, Lin Jin would lose his final trump card.
In other words, Lin Jin's card could only be used as a bluff. It couldn't really land on the table.
It was that simple.
Hence, he definitely could not show the slightest bit of fear. He also had to meet Sir God Kai. However, meeting him was one thing, but he still had to prepare some things.
Lin Jin immediately pulled Huo Yuan over and said, "Master, later on, you have to do this and this … Remember, remember, you mustn't say anything wrong. Otherwise, you, me, Northern Qi's Xiang Yun, and this cave abode won't be safe."
After hearing Lin Jin's explanation, the Fire Source Monk fell into deep thought before nodding. He didn't ask anything else.
After all, there wasn't enough time.
The two of them prepared to go out. Xiang Yun of Northern Qi naturally did not need to go with them. After all, in the eyes of God Yan, this immortal slave was not even worth mentioning.
It was also because Northern Qi's Xiang Yun had never displayed her alchemy talents and talents in front of God Yan.
Lin Jin told her to hide in the cave abode. If the situation changed, he told her not to go out. If something went wrong and she managed to escape, she was to immediately seek help from Xuan Dao Sect.
At least in Xuan Dao Sect, Spiritual Master Miao Yan could protect her.
There wasn't much time left. Lin Jin had done everything he could think of so he left the cave with Huo Yuan.
Outside, it was still snowing.
On top of the snowy mountain, several figures were floating.
Sir God Kai was one of them. Behind him were seven other immortals. These seven immortals had powerful auras and they were all silent as death gods.
At the sight of these seven immortals, Huo Yuan's expression changed.
"Wow, Sir God Kai is serious this time," Huo Yuan whispered to Lin Jin. Huo Yuan whispered to Lin Jin, "One of those seven immortals is at the true immortal realm while the other six are pseudo immortals. However, they're definitely stronger than the average pseudo immortal. They're all at the peak of the pseudo immortal realm and they're all infamous individuals. Even if Wise Man Miao Yan were here, he wouldn't be able to stop them."
With that, Lin Jin knew how grim the situation was.
Obviously, this was Sir God Gai's trump card. With so many experts here, even if Reverend Miao Yan were to come and fight with them, according to Monk Huo Yuan, he would not be able to gain any advantage.
They might even be at a disadvantage.
It was no wonder Sir God Kai dared to come knocking. But the more it was like this, the more Lin Jin was sure of one thing.
Sir God Kai was wary of him, or rather, of the 'Curator' behind him.
If it weren't for his fear of the Curator, with his powerful strength and troops, Sir God Kai wouldn't have been so polite. He would have just used a spell to break into the cave abode and start killing.
With that, Lin Jin had a plan.
At that moment, he looked very relaxed. He lifted his head to look at Sir God Meng and smiled. Then, he said, "Sir God Meng, I was going to look for you. I didn't expect you to come by yourself. That's good.
Lin Jin was putting on an act with all his might. Needless to say, no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't find any fault with it. Lin Jin's current relaxed demeanor, his ease, and the 'bone-deep' arrogance didn't seem fake at all.
Even Huo Yuan was dumbfounded by what he saw.
Inwardly, he couldn't help but give Lin Jin a thumbs up. In fact, if Lin Jin hadn't explained everything to him earlier, even Huo Yuan would have believed that Lin Jin had a backer and a trump card. Moreover, he had no doubts about it.
On the other side, Sir God Gu smiled, but his heart was heavy.
The next moment, he turned to Huo Yuan, his eyes filled with disbelief and shock.
Based on Sir God Kai's judgment, Huo Yuan should be dead by now. Or rather, even if he wasn't dead, he was half-dead and not far from death.
Because the man was hit by Sir God Kai's unique killer move, the spirit-devouring ghost worm.
Sir God Kai knew better than anyone how terrifying a spirit-devouring ghost worm was. Back then, Huo Yuan's immortal body was already corroded by the ghost worm and there was no way to expel it.
It could be said that other than Sir God Kai himself, no one could 'save' Huo Yuan.
But now, although Huo Yuan seemed to have lost an arm, his immortal energy was stable. He didn't look like he was dying at all. It seemed like he had gotten rid of the spirit-devouring ghost worm. But the problem was, wasn't he the one who did it?
No one else in this world could do it other than him?
Sir God Kai's eyebrows twitched as a thought popped into his mind.
No, other than him, there was someone else who could do it, and that was an expert who had reached the level of a carefree immortal.
