After the blood oath, the group of Golden Venerable Ones and Silver Venerable Ones all smiled happily, as if in their hearts, it was a special honor to be able to drink the wine mixed with their own blood with Ji Yang, the Great You Chess Messenger. This also showed that they did not know that Li Qianxun was good at witchcraft.
…
"Grand You Chess Envoy."
Lin Muyu said respectfully, "Since we have sworn our blood oath, then … Luo Yu will be fine, right? The Grand You Chess Envoy promised me that he would spare Luo Yu's life. "
Ji Yang nodded with a smile. "Yes, Luo Yu can live, but he has made a huge mistake, so the House of Chivalry can no longer tolerate him. He must leave the headquarters before sunset, or he will be killed."
"Thank you, Grand You Chess Envoy."
"Lin Yan, you are too polite. From now on, you and I are brothers. You don't have to do this."
"Yes, okay!"
Lin Muyu returned and continued to bandage Luo Yu's wounds. She also found him a set of Silver Venerable Ranger armor and brought him some food. Luo Yu, on the other hand, had a look of gratitude on his face. After swallowing a mouthful of meat soup, he lowered his voice and said, "Being with Ji Yang is like being with a tiger … Lin Yan, you have to be careful, I … I mistook you for someone else. I didn't expect my personal guard to betray me … You have to be careful, he reported me … There's no reason he wouldn't report you …"
Lin Muyu put one hand on his shoulder and smiled. She lowered her voice and said, "Don't worry, Luo Yu. I am still of some use to Lord Ji Yang. He won't touch me for the time being."
"Yes, that's good …"
"Someone, send Luo Yu to my place to rest." Lin Muyu ordered, and a few rogue warriors immediately responded. He then said in a low voice, "Luo Yu, rest and recuperate for now. I will send you down the mountain before sunset."
Luo Yu nodded. "Okay."
…
At this moment, Ji Yang carried a wine jar and said with a smile, "There is a banquet in the main hall. Come, Lin Yan, let's drink to our hearts' content today. We will not leave until we are drunk."
"Yes."
Most of the alcohol in the Empire was rice wine, and the alcohol content was not high, so it was okay to drink a little more. Moreover, Lin Muyu's body had been tempered thousands of times, so his resistance to alcohol was already very strong. It would be a lie to say that he would not return until he was drunk. Even if he drank seven or eight jars of wine, he would not be drunk.
There were only three seats in the main hall, and they were for Ji Yang, Li Qianxun, and Lin Muyu, the three people who were above the level of You Ye.
When Lin Muyu carried a wine jar into the hall, the light inside suddenly dimmed. The door behind her was closed. Lin Muyu couldn't help but be startled, and her spirit sense began to become alert.
Ji Yang walked to the front of the host's seating area and suddenly turned around. His body was enshrouded in battle energy as he smiled faintly and greeted, "Sir Lin Yan."
"Great Wandering Chess Envoy, what's wrong?"
"What do you think this is?"
Ji Yang abruptly raised his hand, and the jar of wine in his hand shot out like a meteor!
"Buzz!"
The wine jar spun at a high speed, carrying with it a dense battle energy. Lin Muyu immediately understood that Ji Yang was testing her ability. She let out a low roar, and her battle energy surged into her arms as she also threw her wine jar out!
"Bang!"
The two jars of wine collided in the air and shattered into pieces. Ji Yang suddenly pierced through the curtain of wine that was formed by the surging wine. He raised his palm, and a powerful battle energy attack went straight for Lin Muyu.
She couldn't admit defeat at this moment, or else she would lose her value and Ji Yang would kill her immediately.
Lin Muyu had been in this world for a long time, and she had long understood the principles of deception. She instantly condensed a powerful force in her right arm, and without using her martial soul, she directly used the Seven Planets Profound Energy's Third Star — Three Planets Calamity!
In her palm, celestial images of men, women, livestock, rivers, forests, and other celestial images quickly flashed past. The power of Three Planets Calamity came from all living beings, and it was also a domineering power that was difficult to resist. When Lin Muyu raised her palm and blasted out the Third Star, a trace of shock flashed across Ji Yang's eyes. This was a power that he had never experienced before.
"Bang!"
A powerful palm blasted out, and battle energy exploded. Lin Muyu was pushed back three steps, while Ji Yang quickly somersaulted and landed on the ground, and took another two steps back. After all, Lin Muyu didn't use her martial soul, so the power of the Third Star was greatly reduced. The Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor, who was in the depths of his spiritual perception, even sneered and said, "Kid, you actually didn't use your martial soul. Otherwise, how could my Third Star be defeated by such a lowly opponent?"
Lin Muyu didn't care about the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor. This Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor was an extremely talented and rare super expert. He only knew the way of cultivation, but not the way of being a person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have failed so badly and been chased to the seventeenth level of Purgatory by hundreds of Divine Realm and Holy Region experts. In terms of cultivation, Lin Muyu needed to learn from the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor, but in terms of being a person, the Seven Luminaries Demon Emperor had to learn more from Lin Muyu.
Ji Yang swayed on the spot. After that palm strike, his entire right arm went numb, and it lasted for a whole three seconds. He was a little surprised. He didn't expect Lin Muyu to be so strong. Naturally, Lin Muyu wasn't any better. The Third Star seemed to have sucked all his energy in an instant. If he attacked again, he probably wouldn't be able to use the Third Star again.
Ji Yang waved his long sleeves and walked to his seat. He laughed and said, "Lin Yan, you embezzled 114 diamond coins. Do you think you can hide this from me?"
"I can't."
Lin Muyu told the truth. "Actually, I can guess that the Great You Chess Envoy must know about this."
Ji Yang raised his eyebrows and said, "Then why do you think I didn't kill you?"
Lin Muyu smiled and cupped her fists. "Because I can do something for the Great You Chess Envoy that Luo Yu can't. Isn't that right, Sir?"
"Hahaha …" Ji Yang threw his head back and laughed. "Good. I, Ji Yang, like smart people like you. Lin Yan, I don't know about your background yet. I've sent people to investigate it, but there hasn't been any detailed results. To me, you're still a very suspicious person. Do you know that?"
"I know."
Lin Muyu smiled and took out a diamond coin. She weighed it in her hand, and a greedy look appeared on her face. She smiled and said, "But is that important? I, Lin Yan, was born in a poor family and suffered a lot from others. I endured a lot of hardships to reach the Heaven Realm. Now, I want to use my strength to exchange for Jin Yin Coins and status. The Grand You Ye Envoy is a smart man. Those 114 diamond coins are what I deserve for killing Jiang Fenglie. After all, Jiang Fenglie is not easy to deal with. "
Ji Yang couldn't help but continue to laugh. "Good … You're very sincere. Brother Lin Yan, the House of Chivalry is a place where you can achieve great things. As long as you follow me, I can guarantee you a lifetime of glory. You might even be made a marquis."
"Then Lin Yan thanks the Great You Chess Envoy in advance!"
"You're welcome." Ji Yang thought for a while and suddenly looked up at Lin Muyu. He asked with a smile, "Brother Lin Yan, your attack just now … was strange and powerful. What kind of martial arts was it? I've practiced martial arts all my life, but I've never seen such a strange move. What is its origin?"
Lin Muyu couldn't help but laugh. She knew this old man would ask that. She raised her head and said with a smile, "Actually, I don't know the specific name, but I used to herd cattle for a living when I was young. Although I pursued martial arts, I didn't succeed. Later, when I was herding cattle, I fell into a tomb. The tomb seemed to be called King Yue's Tomb. Later, I found a broken martial arts manual called 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms' in the tomb. But most of it was rotten, and there were only seven palms left. Later, I learned from it and made some progress. The palm I just used is called 'Proud Dragon Repents'. Hehe, Great You Chess Envoy, the power of this move is not bad, right?"
"Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms?"
Ji Yang was stunned. He said, "Good name. This palm technique is powerful and indeed has the power to subdue dragons and tigers. Not bad. This palm technique … Do you have it with you?"
"No." Lin Muyu shook her head and said, "Later, after I learned seven palms, I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, so I used this martial arts manual to exchange for a soup dumpling."
"Soup dumpling …" Ji Yang's face was full of shock. He said, "Isn't … isn't this too absurd?"
Lin Muyu laughed. "But that's the truth. When people are about to die from hunger, what can't they give up?"
"That's true. Haha, sit down and drink!"
"Yes!"
… …
Fortunately, Ji Yang didn't ask further. Otherwise, if Lin Muyu continued to make up stories, it would be unimaginable. She might even be able to make up things like the Rippling Waves and the Nine Yin Manual. Then … Ji Yang would be considered a stupid pig if he believed it, right?
Of course, Ji Yang wasn't stupid. He could tell that Lin Muyu didn't want to teach him the secret technique. This was human nature. Everyone liked to have a skill, but no one wanted someone else to learn their skill.
The banquet only ended when it was almost dusk. Seeing that the sun was about to set, Lin Muyu's face turned red. She pretended to be drunk, stood up, and shook her body. She smiled and said, "Lord Ji Yang, I really can't drink anymore … Aha, I still have to send Luo Yu down the mountain. Otherwise, Lord Ji Yang will cut off his head."
Ji Yang laughed. "Lord Lin Yan drank too much … Someone, give Lord Lin Yan 500 Jinyin coins and send him back to his residence."
Soon, a wandering warrior walked over with a heavy bag of money. He said respectfully, "Lord, can I send you back?"
"Hmm, okay. Thank you, Lord Ji Yang!"
Lin Muyu walked out of the hall unsteadily. She had other thoughts in her mind. Ji Yang valued her so much. It was almost equivalent to Guan Yunchang's standard of "getting gold when on horseback, getting silver when off horseback." It seemed that the headquarters really needed her strength. But what exactly did they want to do? It seemed that it was better to ask Luo Yu. After all, he was one of them.
… …
After Lin Muyu left the hall, the lights in the hall flickered.
Li Qianxun opened her sleepy, drunk eyes. Suddenly, there was a flash of light. She said, "Big Brother, this guy … seems to be drunk, but he's not. I still can't see through him. What is his background? He can reach the Heaven State without a Martial Soul. Such a genius is rare in the world. Why didn't he work for the empire? Why did he choose to join the Hall of Chivalry?"
Ji Yang's gaze was cold. He said flatly, "It's precisely because he doesn't have a Martial Soul and is a Heaven State cultivator. Such a talent is very rare. I've already sent people to investigate the entire Lanyan City. There is no one like him in the imperial capital. Moreover, no high-ranking generals from the Divine Temple, the Imperial Guards, the Imperial Guards, and the Divine Might Battalion have disappeared for no reason. This Lin Yan must be a wandering mercenary who wants to show off his skills in the Hall of Chivalry.
"Yes, Big Brother is right."
"Qianxun, when will your venom take effect?"
"It will take about seven days for the venom to grow. We just need to wait for a while."
"Okay!"
