Beiyin Great Sage - Chapter 584
Chapter 584 Old Immortal Lin
Seeing that the other party was out of breath, Zhou Yifang breathed a sigh of relief, rubbed his sore muscles from exerting all his strength, and walked towards the corpse.
There is nothing on Li Jingyang.
This also makes sense.
The other party is here to assassinate Qi Refining monks, and it is very likely that he will be in danger because of this, so naturally he will not bring important things with him.
In addition to the ebony staff, it is a precious orb found on the disciples of the Qixuanmen.
The orb is crystal clear, I don’t know what material it is made of, and I don’t know what its function is, but it should be more than just a decoration.
Put away the things, Zhou Yi raised his head suddenly.
“Again!”
The warning signs from the Cicada Startling Technique became more and more obvious.
“Peng!”
The earth trembled, and the ground under Zhou Yi’s feet shattered. He used his strength to retreat violently, and rushed straight to the forest behind him, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
After a few breaths.
“Shua!”
A figure lightly landed on the ground, glanced at the corpse on the ground, pondered for a while, and then rushed towards the forest.
This person’s speed was actually a bit faster than Li Jingyang’s, and he didn’t change his face when he saw Li Jingyang’s death.
Obviously confident enough in his own strength.
Escape!
Zhou Yi’s face was pale, and he ran wildly.
There is still a distance, but the back of the head can still feel the piercing killing intent, and the hairs all over the body stand on end.
The person who came this time is stronger than Li Jingyang!
even,
Stronger than the two qi-refining monks of Qixuanmen!
Mountain climbing!
Using hands and feet together, Zhou Yi is like a flexible ape from a distance, jumping back and forth on the rocks and taking off.
Jumping up with a vine in hand, it is several feet away.
If it is condescending, it can even span more than ten feet, and it will land silently, and the bumps are as smooth as the road.
Seeing that it was about to sink into the mountains, a sword light appeared from behind, and the sword light swept across the void, like a living thing.
No!
It is not like a living thing, but it is indeed alive.
Even though no one was holding it, Jian Guang was able to turn in the air, chasing Zhou Yi and slashing down, the speed was as fast as lightning.
Flying sword!
It is rumored to be in the hands of a fairy.
“click…”
The ebony stick was twisted in half just to block the light of the sword.
Zhou Yi was terrified, and took the opportunity to rush wildly into a deep canyon, trying in vain to avoid the pursuit behind him by taking advantage of the pitch-black terrain.
“Well…”
A figure appeared above the canyon, pondered for a while, and then floated down.
After a while.
“Shua!”
The figure rose into the sky and landed on a piece of bluestone.
“Old Monster Lin.”
A voice came from afar:
“How about it?”
“Don’t worry.” Old Monster Lin looked up:
“The man was seriously injured and fell into the underground ditch. Even if he survived, it would not be so easy to get out, and he would not get in the way.”
“hope so.”
The sound is erratic:
“Unexpectedly, the person surnamed Li didn’t die at the hands of practitioners, but capsized in the gutter and died at the hands of a junior.”
“Go back.”
Boss Lin lowered his eyebrows:
“There is still business to do.”
“Ok.”
The sound gradually faded away.

Liang Guojing.
Imperial Palace.
“Two inner disciples of the Qixuan Sect were killed, and a true disciple of the Tianshi Sect died. The envoys of Song and Wu are already on their way.”
Lin Zidan, the head of the Lin family, the crown prince, the innate master, who changed his surname to avoid the emperor, lowered his eyebrows and said slowly:
“Your Majesty, please make a decision!”
This innate master is known to everyone in Liang Guo, and he is known as the old fairy Lin.
But if you see a real person, you will definitely be disappointed.
Gain Lin Zidan looks plain, just like an ordinary 60-year-old man, without the spirit of immortality, nor extraordinary bearing.
Even the first-grade court clothes specially bestowed on him seemed ordinary against the backdrop of his temperament.
“what to do?”
“what to do?”
On the dragon chair, the current emperor of the Liang Kingdom panicked, feeling as if he was sitting on pins and needles, waving his hands back and forth:
“Can anyone tell me what to do now?”
Three Qi-refining monks were killed, and Kang Town was razed to the ground. None of the thousands of people in the town survived, even the old and the weak died on the spot.
Such a major event shocked the whole country!
Wu and Song were even more furious and asked Liang Guo to explain.
“Your Majesty.” Lin Zidan bowed his head:
“This matter is of great importance. If it cannot be settled properly, the two countries, Song and Wu, will not stop there. Now the two countries have troops stationed on the border.”
“Let Li Shi pass by.” The emperor said anxiously:
“Let Li Shi sit on the border and not let their people come over!”
“…” Lin Zidan frowned, and a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes. Who would have thought that such a person would be the leader of Liang Guo?
However, it can be seen that the former prime minister is very capable, and this kind of waste can also be elected as the emperor.
“General Li’s three-year filial piety period has not yet come, so it may not be appropriate to go to the frontier.”
“and…”
He raised his head and spoke slowly:
“If General Li goes to the frontier, how will His Majesty’s safety be guaranteed? Those in Yuping Mountain probably don’t want to offend Qixuanmen.”
“good!”
The emperor was taken aback, and nodded:
“General Lee can’t go.”
Liang Guo also has forces similar to Qixuanmen, which come from Yuping Mountain.
The imperial court has a special attitude towards the ‘immortal’, that is, it hopes to have a close relationship with it, but it does not want the other party to interfere in the government affairs.
Supporting Jianghu forces such as Tianlong Mountain and the Lin family is also to counteract the cultivators.
The forces of the rivers and lakes, the imperial court, and the Xiuxian sect maintain a balance under certain circumstances, relying on each other and alienating each other.
The royal family will send their children to visit Yuping Mountain for generations, but no royal disciple has ever occupied such a strong position in Yuping Mountain.
The Yuping Mountain Society sent monks to stay in the capital.
was banned from participating in politics.
The relationship between Jianghu forces and military generals and civil servants is complicated and difficult to understand, and there are various people and thoughts in between.
Practitioners from various countries also have connections with each other.
Maintaining such a situation is by no means easy.
“Ai Qing.”
The emperor leaned forward, and the soundtrack begged:
“What do you think should be done? If it is handled properly, I will reward you a lot!”
“Well…”
Lin Zidan’s eyes flickered, and he said:
“It can also be solved, but you need to borrow something from His Majesty.”
“what?”
“Human head.”
“Shua!”
A flash of sword light appeared in the empty hall.
…
“Dang Clang…”
Before the main hall, the sword was unsheathed, and the murderous intent soared into the sky.
The scorching sun is shining brightly, but the meaning of killing is like the cold wind whistling in the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month.
Li Shi’s face was gloomy, he stared at Lin Zidan, his eye sockets were so wide that he was about to bleed, he angrily reprimanded:
“My surname is Lin, you are so courageous!”
Even the emperor dared to kill.
It’s appalling!
There are more than a hundred top inner guards of the imperial court, each of whom is a first-class master. In addition to the innate master Li Shi, all kinds of magic-breaking equipment, and the nine-ring crossbow, even a monk in the late stage of Qi refining may not be able to escape.
Lin Zidan had this feeling on his face, but his expression didn’t change at all.
He knelt on one knee, holding up a tray with both hands. On the tray was the head of the current emperor. The eyes of the head were closed, and the death was peaceful.
“General Lee.”
Lin Zitan said:
“As pointed out by the soldiers of the two countries, Xiuxian Sect is aggressive. How can it be calmed down if you don’t want to pay the price?”
“Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous. He can’t bear to see people in ruins, and he doesn’t want to see officials kneeling and humiliated, and he doesn’t want to see innocent soldiers die because of it.”
“So!”
As soon as his voice was mentioned, it was like a bronze bell trembling in all directions, spreading throughout the entire palace:
“Your Majesty is willing to use his own life to pay for the death of the two countries’ qi refining monks. I hope that this matter will be settled and peace will be restored to the world. Only then will I live up to my painstaking efforts.”
“…”
Li Shi’s eye sockets throbbed.
Lin Zidan’s words were touching and touching, and the inner guards beside him were all excited, and the killing intent on their bodies also quietly dissipated.
But he knew it.
The current emperor is by no means such a self-sacrificing person, but speaking out at this time is to question His Majesty, and it is suspected of using weapons recklessly.
“it is good!”
He stared at Lin Zidan, gritted his steel teeth:
“Your Majesty is kind, and I will be grateful in the end, but the country cannot be without a master for a day. I don’t know if Your Majesty has left a decree for that prince to succeed.”
“It can’t be His Royal Highness King Qi?”
King Qi,
The son of the virtuous concubine Lin Baizhi and the grandson of Lin Zidan.
“Your Majesty does have a will.”
Lin Zidan spoke slowly:
“The general will know in a few days.”
“The one surnamed Lin!”
Li Shi took a step forward and said angrily:
“You asked His Majesty to shield the left and right. There are only you and Your Majesty in the hall. Now that His Majesty died without knowing why, don’t you let you say what you want?”
“I…”
“General!” Lin Zidan raised his eyebrows and his face sank:
“Who said there are only me and Your Majesty in the palace?”
“There are two more.”
“Not bad.” At this time, the two walked out of the hall slowly, and one of them nodded and said:
“General Li, get out of the way.”
“I can testify that Senior Lin did not do anything out of bounds.”
“Master Wang, Eunuch Zhang.” Li Shi was stunned.
Master Wang is the chief assistant of the dynasty, and he is respected by others. He is able to get where he is today thanks to the promotion of the other party in the early years, so he is very grateful.
Eunuch Zhang is His Majesty’s playmate since he was a child, and he will not lie in theory.
Moreover, the two of them were already at odds with Lin Zidan, and they mentioned many times that letting people from the rivers and lakes get involved in the court would hinder the ancestors’ precepts, and they even wrote a letter opposing the promotion of the concubine Xiande to the imperial concubine.
With them around, Lin Zidan could do nothing.
but…
What happened to the sword intent just now?
“General Lee.”
Eunuch Zhang’s sharp voice sounded:
“Our family knows that the general is eager to protect the Lord, but…”
“That’s the way it is.”

Inner Palace.
The virtuous concubine Lin Baizhi sat upright with her eyes closed, and the maid slowly brushed her long hair. Even though she was dressed in white and filial piety, this woman was still beautiful.
“My Lady.”
There is a **** summoning:
“The old **** sent a letter.”
“Ok.”
Opening his eyes, Lin Baizhi took the letter, glanced over it with lowered eyes, and immediately showed a bitter smile on his face:
“Dad…”
“Is this your arrangement?”
“Daughter, your grandson, is it just a **** for you to achieve your goal?”
…
“Crack!”
A wooden box was opened, revealing a spiritual fruit inside.
Lin Zidan slowly took out the spiritual fruit, his eyes flickered, and he breathed out a long breath:
“Finally, I got it!”
“Xuanlingguo.” A deep voice sounded:
“With it, you can prolong your life by one year, which is enough to erase the fork in the road when you were young, and advance to the Dao Foundation in your lifetime.”
“but…”
“Why was the throne given to someone else?”
He originally thought that Lin Zidan would make his grandson the emperor and his daughter the empress dowager, so that he could get more benefits from the treasury.
“Benefit.”
Lin Zitan’s face remained unchanged:
“Without enough benefits, how can others give up the throne?”
“Besides, Bai Zhi has a weak temperament and cannot be the empress dowager who is the mother of the world. She can lead a better life with the children if she gives up the throne.”
“The throne is not necessarily really good.”
“Hey…” A phantom appeared nearby, and said with a smile:
“So, you arranged for Lin Baizhi to enter the palace, from the very beginning to put pressure on others, and then use your daughter and grandson to withdraw from the battle for the throne in exchange for this life-prolonging elixir?”
“good.”
Lin Zidan nodded slowly:
“It is also thanks to Fellow Daoist that I know that there is such a treasure hidden in the palace treasury.”
“admire!”
Xuying sighed softly.
He knew very well that as early as several decades ago, Lin Zidan had aspired to be a great man and gave up having sex.
That is to say.
Giving birth to Lin Baizhi is also for today.
For one thing, Lin Zidan devoted himself to marrying a wife and having a daughter. He planned for thirty years, and his cultivation level did not drop during the period. Such a mind can be called terrifying.
“It seems that I did not choose you wrongly.”
Phantom said leisurely:
“When the Qi refining is complete, I can help you achieve the Dao Foundation, but after you become the Dao Foundation, you also need to help me do one thing.”
“rest assured.”
Lin Zidan said slowly:
“Being by my side for decades, have you ever seen me break my promise?”
