Looking at Lin Feiran, Lin Ray believed that the person in front of him definitely knew about the Underworld King's Ancient Land. It would be strange if a Saint Realm cultivator didn't know about it.
Lin Ray's expression at this moment had already betrayed him. This made Lin Ray even more certain that he … knew about the Underworld King's Ancient Land. Moreover, he knew a lot about it.
At this moment, the surrounding people couldn't hear the conversation between Lin Ray and Wu Ding. They could only see the two of them moving their lips, but no one knew what they were talking about.
In the area around Linley and Bebe, there was a soundproof formation that completely blocked out all sound from the two of them. This was why Linley was able to speak so brazenly.
As an array master, Wu Ding could naturally sense the existence of the soundproof array. However, he didn't try to break it. He didn't dare to.
Moreover, the soundproof array was very sensitive. Once it was touched, it would be sensed by the array master.
After seeing Lin Ray's cultivation base, he didn't dare to provoke him. If he made a mistake, he would be playing with fire. He couldn't bear the consequences.
In the array, Lin Feiran looked at Lin Ray. He believed that this was Lin Ray's true purpose. Everything before was just for show. This was the real purpose.
Of course, knowing this didn't change anything. Knowing the current situation, he didn't hide anything and told Lin Fan everything he knew.
"There was a riot in the Underworld King's Ancient Land. The scale was extremely large. The heavens and earth were shocked."
"All the experts in the Eight Regions, Nine Heavens, and Ten Earths have sensed it. The pressure from the world is so great that we don't even have the will to resist. We don't even have the thought of resisting."
"He was too strong. We couldn't catch up to him." Lin Feiran seemed to have returned to the time when the riot happened in the Underworld King's Ancient Land. His body couldn't help but tremble violently. His expression was filled with fear. It was as if recalling the memories was a kind of self-torture.
However, this was precisely what Lin Ray didn't want to hear. "Get to the point. I don't want to know about your experiences."
Lin Feiran, "…"
He was pulled back to reality by Lin Ray. He took a deep breath and calmed the fear in his heart. He continued, "The Netherworld King's Ancient Land was in an uproar. The demonic beasts started to rush out. At that time, all the cities around the Netherworld King's Ancient Land were massacred."
"What's even more shocking is that all of the marquises who were slaughtered by the humans have taken their belongings into storage. They have no intention of returning."
"The appearance of this scene caused all the people in the surrounding cities to feel panic. However, what was even stranger was that those Monstrous Beasts Panku Hou did not act recklessly. Instead, they returned to their calm, as if nothing had happened."
"At that time, all the disciples of the sects, empires, and aristocratic families went out to explore the Netherworld King's Ancient Land. However, when they reached the entrance of the Netherworld King's Ancient Land, they were shocked by the scene at the entrance and didn't dare to take half a step forward."
"Oh?" Lin Ray's interest was piqued. He hadn't expected that a single Dusk of All Heavens could cause such a huge commotion. What made him even more interested was why those people had stopped.
"Tell me, why?"
"Why didn't those people enter the Netherworld King's Ancient Land?" Lin Ray asked.
"Because of the Monstrous Beasts."
Fear and trembling couldn't stop as they spoke about what had happened back then.
"It was filled with Monstrous Beasts. When we arrived at the entrance of the Netherworld King's Ancient Land, the entrance was filled with Monstrous Beasts. We didn't know how many Monstrous Beasts there were, but when we saw them, we felt our scalps go numb."
"There were many Saint-level Monstrous Beasts there. Given our strength at that time, it wasn't difficult for us to enter the Netherworld King's Ancient Land. However, what really frightened us was the thing in the depths of the Netherworld King's Ancient Land. His roar seemed to have transcended the ancient times. When all the Monstrous Beasts heard his roar, they all knelt down and submitted to him."
"The scene was truly magnificent. I have never seen such a scene in my entire life. Especially the pressure of the Heavens and Earth at that time. It was as if the Monstrous Beast's roar was constantly pressing down on us."
"At that moment, the Saint Spiritual Qi in our bodies was suppressed. In the end, we had no choice but to retreat."
"Then, did you guys not go back after that?" Lin Ray asked. After all, cultivators were going against the Heavens. Moreover, some cultivators who valued benefits above all else would definitely go in and take a look.
"We did."
"After that, the entire Holy World sent several groups of people to enter the Netherworld King's Ancient Land. However, they all stopped at the periphery."
"After that, the Netherworld King's Ancient Land became a forbidden place in everyone's hearts. No one mentioned it again."
He looked at Lin Ray and reminded him, "Although I don't know why you are asking about the Netherworld King's Ancient Land, but …"
"Let me give you a piece of advice. Don't go there. Otherwise, you will only regret it. The terror of that place is not something you can withstand."
"Back then, even Earth Sage Hunyuan couldn't enter. Do you think that an Early Stage Dao Fruit Sage like you can enter?"
There was no reply. Others might not know, but he was very clear. The system had said that the Dusk of the Netherworld King's Ancient Land was born. Now, if he guessed correctly, the Monstrous Beast's roar that Lin Feiran and the others heard must have come from the Dusk of the Heavens.
However, what puzzled Lin Ray was that the Dusk of the Heavens had just appeared. How could it possess such a powerful force?
If that was the case, why did the system ask him to go and subdue it? With his weak arms and legs, not to mention subduing the Dusk of the Heavens, he might not even be able to pass through the Sea of Beasts.
Lin Ray's silence made Lin Feiran's heart sink. He didn't know Lin Ray's personality, but he could see that this person was unpredictable. One moment, he was shouting to kill him. The next moment, he locked him up and asked him to interrogate him. This kind of person was the most difficult to understand.
He was afraid. He was afraid of being killed. He was afraid that he would be killed because of this matter. When he thought of his family, his heart was filled with regret.
"Sigh!"
Lin Feiran sighed and stopped thinking about it. He sat down cross-legged in the cage, waiting for death to come. He was furious and glared at the servant who tricked him.
"Tsk, what should I do? If what this guy said is true, isn't it the same as courting death if I go there? "
"If I don't go, the system won't be merciful."
"Ah … Ahhh …"
"So annoying." He shook his head with a troubled expression.
Seeing Lin Ray's actions, the outside world was even more confused. They couldn't understand what he was doing.
Time passed in Lin Ray's silence. No one dared to speak, afraid that they would be killed if they weren't careful.
… … …
"I'd rather be on good terms with this person than be enemies." On a second floor not far from the wreckage of the Balance Tavern, an old man saw everything that happened. He had a deep understanding of Lin Ray's strength.
"Go, pass down the order. In the future, the Blacksmith Guild will try not to talk about conflicts with the Nine Heavens Shop. Even if there is, try to ease the relationship. After all, it's not the headquarters this time."
… … …
"Young master, you're right. This Boss Lin is really not simple. I know about Lin Feiran from the Balance Tavern. Although he's only an early Dao Fruit Saint, his methods are extraordinary."
"Moreover, he has the Stone Clan's cultivation techniques and battle techniques. He also has the backing of the Stone Clan. Boss Lin can easily suppress someone like him."
Hearing this, Liu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed. He turned to look at Elder Qiong and nodded with a smile. "Yeah, but I didn't expect Boss Lin to be so awesome."
"I really want to see what kind of sect Boss Lin is from."
"A mere servant can defeat me. If I can join Boss Lin's sect, wouldn't my strength rise to another level?"
"Moreover …" Thinking of Lin Xian`er, Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but want to join her sect.
"Young master, you … don't tell me you've taken a fancy to Boss Lin's daughter?" Looking at the admiring expression on his young master's face, Elder Qiong probed.
However, as soon as the words left his mouth, Liu Chengfeng nodded without hesitation. "That's right. Everyone loves beauty. Although Miss Xian`er isn't that gentle, her personality is very good. She's the type I like."
"If I can become dao companions with her, I'll have no regrets in my life." As he thought about it, the scene of him becoming dao companions with Lin Xian`er appeared in his mind.
That smile and that drool made Elder Qiong's mouth twitch. His eyelids twitched violently.
And this scene happened in many places in the Imperial Capital. Without exception, they all ordered their subordinates to behave themselves and not to have any conflicts with the people of Nine Heavens Shop.
As for Liu Chengfeng's matter, he was probably the only one who thought so.
… … …
In the ruins of the Balance Tavern, Lin Ray regained his senses. Looking at the servant in his hand, he smiled and casually threw him to the side of the cage. "He's yours."
"No … no … Elder, I …"
"Hmph, you bastard. How dare you beg for mercy? You've caused this old man to be in such a miserable state!" Looking at the servant, Lin Feiran didn't waste any more words. He stood up, reached out his hand through the gap in the cage and grabbed the servant's throat.
"Uh … El … Elder, I …"
"Crack!"
The sound of bones breaking could be heard. Suddenly, the servant's begging stopped abruptly. His eyes widened, filled with unwillingness and disbelief. It was as if he never thought that such a day would come.
Plop!
Releasing his grip, Lin Feiran threw the servant's corpse on the ground. He turned around and sat back in his original position, looking like he was waiting for death.
As for resisting, heh … he didn't have that thought and he didn't have the ability to do so.
Being locked in the cage, what ability did he have to resist? If he could get out, perhaps … Eh, perhaps, he might have a chance to resist. But now …
Lin Feiran's action made Lin Ray smile. He didn't expect this old man to be so resolute in the face of death.
However, as he watched, Linley suddenly didn't feel like killing him.
It wasn't easy for a Saint-level expert to cultivate. If he killed him so easily, wouldn't it be a waste? It was too inhumane.
As he thought about it, an idea came to his mind. He communicated with the Little Dragon in the system and asked, "Little Dragon, do you think the Spirit Controlling Pill used by a Saint-level expert will be effective?"
"…"
"Eh? Little Dragon? "
After a long time, the Little Dragon didn't respond. Lin Ray was stunned and asked again.
However, there was still no response. It seemed that the Little Dragon couldn't be counted on.
"System, do you think the Spirit Controlling Pill can control a Saint-level expert?"
"Ding! Yes, but the effect isn't very good."
"If you want to control a Saint-level expert completely, you need him to open up his Spirit Ocean and offer up his Soul Imprint. Then, you can use the Illusory Spirit Blood Fire to place it in his Spirit Ocean."
"If that's the case, I believe the host should understand without me saying it!"
"Spirit Ocean?" Hearing this, Lin Ray understood.
Indeed, the Spirit Controlling Pill was just an ordinary item to him. It might be possible to control a Godly State expert, but it shouldn't have any effect on a Saint-level expert.
As for placing the Illusory Spirit Blood Fire in the Spirit Ocean, it was a good idea.
"Okay, thank you."
After saying that, Lin Ray exited the System Space and looked at Lin Feiran. He said, "Old man, there are two choices in front of you."
"First, you can be killed, and then your former enemies will vent their anger on your family."
"What … What about the second choice?" Lin Feiran asked. Indeed, the first choice would happen.
If he died, his enemies would indeed use his family as a living sacrifice.
"Second, I'll let you go, but you have to listen to me. Open up your Spirit Ocean and hand over your Soul Imprint. Then, I'll let you go."
"Of course, you can also choose the first choice, but in that case, your family will suffer, or it can be your friends and family."
"You can take a look and see if the force behind you will protect your family and friends because of your death."
After speaking, Linley turned around and sat down in the meditative position, beginning to recover.
Although the battle just now didn't consume much of the Saint Spiritual Qi in his body, he had nothing to do. He believed that Lin Feiran would be conflicted for a while.
Time passed little by little. Lin Feiran was still in a dilemma. It was difficult for him to choose now.
Logically speaking, the two choices were easy to choose, but when he thought of the Shi Clan's power, he subconsciously returned to a dilemma. It was difficult to choose.
"Grandpa, look, this is delicious. Eat it." Suddenly, just as Lin Feiran was in a dilemma again, a cute child appeared in front of him. He kept calling him grandpa.
"Xu 'er."
Liu Jinfeng raised her head and saw the child's smile. Her heart calmed down. At this moment, the correct choice appeared in her mind.
"No, I can't let anything happen to Xu 'er. I can't let anything happen to my family. I can't let anything happen to those people. Right … right, I can't."
As if he had found the direction to live, he raised his head and looked at Lin Ray. He said, "I'll submit. I'll submit to you. However, you have to guarantee the safety of my family."
"If that's the case, even if you want me to submit to you, even if you want me to die, I'm willing."
"Guarantee your family?" Lin Feiran opened his eyes and looked at Lin Feiran's determined gaze.
"Yes." Lin Feiran's gaze was fixed on Lin Ray, waiting for the answer he wanted.
Lin Ray had already expected Lin Feiran's answer. Thus, he didn't think for too long. He nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you."
"As long as you submit to me, I will protect your family. No one can do anything."
