Mingshi Yin was not as courageous as Duanmu Sheng. In many battles, he appeared weak and cowardly. However, this did not mean he feared his enemies. West Begging Art's appearance had given him a fright.
Under the moonlight, his face looked ghastly pale.
Mingshi Yin did not know if he should be happy or not.
He had killed many people in the past, ranging from officials and nobles to peddlers and commoners. However, none of them made him nervous like West Begging Art did. It was not because he was powerful or afraid. It was because of an indescribable emotion.
Anger, hatred, sorrow, or joy … It was an indescribable mix of emotions.
After sitting there for a long time, Mingshi Yin's breathing gradually calmed down.
He took a deep breath and wiped the blood off his face. He cursed under his breath, "F * cking filthy."
Energy burst out!
The golden energy passed through his capillaries and Extraordinary Eight Meridians before spreading throughout his body, dantian, sea of Qi, skin … Any blood that came into contact with his body was evaporated by the energy and vaporized. He could not do anything about the blood on his clothes.
He pulled out the Separation Hook and rubbed it repeatedly with his sleeve until it was shiny.
Yu Shangrong's voice rang in the air.
"Don't you have anything to say?"
"Uh …"
Mingshi Yin scratched his head. "I lost my composure earlier. Thank goodness you appeared in time, Second Senior Brother. Otherwise, I'd be finished."
Yu Shangrong frowned.
He was not a humorous person.
However, he did not like to force others to do things he did not like as well. This was especially true when it came to his fellow disciples. He was the revered Sword Devil.
"…"
Mingshi Yin sighed awkwardly. "Actually, I'm from the Green Lotus Sect."
Yu Shangrong nodded. He landed next to Mingshi Yin and looked at the bright moon.
Mingshi Yin continued to ask, "Aren't you surprised, Second Senior Brother?"
"As expected," Yu Shangrong said calmly.
"It's quite creepy to talk about a corpse while admiring the moonlight. I'll take care of it."
Mingshi Yin raised an energy seal and buried the corpse.
…
Outside the city. It was a full moon.
Mingshi Yin sighed. "I have a brother. He's silly and stupid. He can't speak, and whenever he communicates with others, his hands and feet dance. He can't hear, but he likes to listen to others speak, as if he can hear them. "
"A deaf-mute?" Yu Shangrong asked.
"Yes … deaf-mute." Mingshi Yin did not want to use this word to describe him. "The heavens think that this world is too filthy and removed all noise from it."
Mingshi Yin sat on the ground with a handful of grass in his hand. As he plucked at the grass, his eyes gleamed. He clenched his fists and crushed the grass into powder.
"He's a piece of white paper … a piece of white paper that hasn't been stained since he was young. He likes to smile … Even if you hit him, he will still smile at you. "
Yu Shangrong was puzzled. "A fool?"
"He's not stupid." Mingshi Yin shook his head. "He gets beaten up for me, steals food for me, and does all the dirty work for me … He's just a little stupid."
"He's a loyal man," Yu Shangrong said with a faint smile, "Where's he now?"
"Dead."
Mingshi Yin spoke casually.
It was like crushing weeds in the palm of one's hand, except that it was sticky, making one feel that it was very annoying.
"He was killed by the West Begging Technique," Mingshi Yin said before he added, "He's only eight years old … He's a year younger than me."
"Nobody did anything to him?" Yu Shangrong frowned.
"Meng Mingshi … the greatest coward of the zither industry. He didn't dare to do anything to him!" Mingshi Yin cursed. "Trash will always be trash. It's impossible for him to change just because he got lucky and became the so-called God of War."
Yu Shangrong saw that Old Fourth was in a good mood. He smiled faintly and asked, "Who's he to you?"
Mingshi Yin replied curtly, "An enemy."
Yu Shangrong did not say anything.
He stood next to Mingshi Yin with his Longevity Sword in his arms as he looked at the sky.
Mingshi Yin continued to say, "We've been in the Meng Mansion since we were young, and there are many things that we don't remember. The things that happened before we were five years old are like a dream. Sometimes, I wondered why a noble place like the Meng family would allow the two of us to exist in the Meng family. He chuckled. "
Yu Shangrong asked, "How did you end up in the golden lotus domain?"
Mingshi Yin shook his head. "I don't remember. All I remember is that I boarded a flying chariot with many children. I was one of them. Then, something happened to the flying chariot, and all of them fell to their deaths. "He suddenly grinned." Now that you mention it, I'm f * cking lucky! "
"You're lucky," Yu Shangrong said.
"When I woke up, I met master."
Mingshi Yin looked to his left and right as he mumbled, "Second Senior Brother, don't you think I'm unlucky? I get beaten up every day. Even after I entered the Evil Sky Pavilion, I still get beaten up … "
"…"
Yu Shangrong wanted to say that they were the same, but he did not say that out of his pride as a senior brother.
However, he now understood why Mingshi Yin was against the green lotus domain and why he was so hostile toward Zhao Yu.
He could not bear to think about the past.
"It's getting late. Let's go back." Yu Shangrong tapped the ground lightly and shot into the air.
Mingshi Yin brushed the dust off his clothes. He bowed at Yu Shangrong before he followed Yu Shangrong.
Meanwhile.
Lu Zhou retracted his power as well.
In truth, ever since he received a steady stream of merit points, he had been observing his disciples. In the end, he fixed his gaze on Mingshi Yin and Yu Shangrong.
"The Meng Mansion." Lu Zhou tried to recall Mingshi Yin's memories in his mind.
Perhaps, it had been a long time, but he could not recall anything even after thinking about it for a long time.
Lu Zhou had often wondered why Ji Tiandao had so coincidentally recruited these people.
The bright moon shines above the sea, and the world shares this moment.
Lu Zhou sighed softly. He closed his eyes and continued to cultivate.
…
Early the next morning.
The news of Great General Xi Qishu's death spread in Xianyang and caused a commotion.
Some of the advisors who were close to Xi Qishu quickly gathered together, including the sword path elite, Bai Yi.
Inside a hall in a garden.
The atmosphere was oppressive.
"More than a dozen of General Xi's guest elders died in the hands of a sword elite. All of them were killed with a single strike. Their Birth Charts were taken away in one go. If I didn't drink with General Bai yesterday, I would've suspected that General Bai was the one who did it. "
A white-robed man with a slight beard and his hair tied into a bun said with a sword in his hand, "A sword path elite?"
"We've found Xi Qishu's body. The wounds are strange and complicated. There are saber wounds, hooked wounds, and sword wounds. The killer is cruel and merciless. "
Everyone's expressions were grim.
"This means that there's more than one killer. It's very likely that it's a group. Also, the killer's cultivation base is very high. "
"They're quite bold to attack General Xi near the capital. What's their motive? "
At this moment, an older official said, "I heard that the Meng Mansion was covered in vines overnight, and it's as green as spring. Could it be that … Meng Mingshi is back for revenge? "
As soon as he said this …
Everyone exchanged a look.
They felt a chill run down their spines, and their hair stood on end.
"There are no ghosts in this world. Don't scare yourself. Meng Mingshi is long dead. I've sent someone to investigate. Xi Qishu's subordinate, Xian Gao, went to the Zhao Mansion before he died. This must be related to Young Master Zhao. "
Bai Yi asked, puzzled, "Zhao Yu?"
"These are troubled times. Daoist Master Tuoba and Daoist Master Ye passed away one after another. Daoist Master Fan is in seclusion, and Daoist Master Qin is elusive. I have a feeling that the imbalance isn't just affecting the other side. Sigh. "
Bai Yi said, "Let's report this to His Majesty, the Emperor of Qin. His Majesty will decide."
The others nodded in agreement.
…
Noon. Zhao Mansion.
Inside the courtyard.
"Pavilion Master, Mister Seventh's Locating Formation is here." Yan Zhenluo presented a talisman with inscribed runes with both hands.
Lu Zhou nodded and took the talisman.
Then, he brought out the Group Teleportation Jade Talisman and lit it up. The talisman seal flew into the jade talisman.
The jade talisman glowed and began to heat up. After a while, it returned to normal.
Lu Li said, "With this Group Teleportation Jade Talisman, we can return to the Evil Sky Pavilion in 15 minutes."
This was not only a way to provide support, but it was also a powerful way to protect themselves.
Lu Zhou put the jade talisman away and looked at Mingshi Yin.
Mingshi Yin had changed his clothes as though nothing had happened.
Lu Zhou said, "Old Fourth."
Mingshi Yin shuddered. He nodded and bowed as he walked over and said, "Master?"
"You've just received the Revelation Pillar's approval, and your cultivation base has improved by leaps and bounds. Let me see how much you've improved. "
He pushed his palm forward.
A palm seal sailed toward Mingshi Yin.
