Zhao Ning was shocked and slightly clenched her hands. At this moment, Zhao Ning had the urge to strangle the person in front of her.
But Zhao Ning knew that this person was not as ordinary as she seemed. She might not even be able to win in a battle, not to mention that she was now in the Lin Family Ningyuan, and any disturbance would affect Zhao Ning's plan.
She had to be careful, she couldn't be offended by this statement.
Zhao Ning looked up at him, without any emotion in her eyes, and just asked, "What do you want me to do?"
There is no such thing as an innocent secret. This Yan Rong must be trying to achieve some kind of purpose, and it is a purpose related to the Lin family.
Yan Rong curled his lips and smiled, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"It's rare to see such a smart person. Don't be anxious. The fairy will know it soon."
He took a deep look at Zhao Ning, as if he was examining something in his eyes.
Here it comes again, such a strange but familiar look, Zhao Ning thought that he had definitely met it somewhere, maybe even within a short period of time, maybe in the Falling Immortal Realm, etc., in the Falling Immortal Realm, Zhao Ning I have only been here for a few days, and I have met very few cultivators.
Zhao Ning's fingertips moved slightly, then turned around to look at Yan Rong's leaving figure. He was walking leisurely, not like a real Jin Dan at all, but like a prodigal son playing in the world.
At this moment, he pinched a piece of dog's tail grass in his hand and shook it. He noticed Zhao Ning's unconcealed gaze and raised his hand to shake the dog's tail grass as if to say hello.
Yan Rong... Yan Rong... Yan Bin...
The people the Lin family used to test their education and respond to Ke Qing's recruitment were actually among those who responded to Ke Qing's recruitment.
This is really a joke.
Zhao Ning straightened up, his expression showed no abnormality, he just looked at the two cultivators on the stage who were shocked to the point of vomiting blood. Gu Lou was apologizing to them.
Yanbin...Yanbin...
She whispered the name in her heart, repeating over and over in her mind the details she had ignored when she was fighting "Han Xu" in the suburbs a few hours ago.
It wasn't until a moment later that Zhao Ning moved slightly and realized where the omission occurred.
Her eyes fell, it was going to rain, and the ants from the ground came out in groups...
"Fellow Taoist, why don't you rest aside and compete again tomorrow? Don't worry, this one won't count." Gu Lou comforted the injured cultivator, "This is our Lin family's fault. Elder Lin Hui really loves his wife."
"Hmph." The cultivator got up and snorted, "You are already a real person in the Jindan realm, and you are still talking so eloquently. You really are not afraid of being laughed at by outsiders."
"Okay, Brother Wang, it will be bad if a real person hears it." The cultivator who had fought with him before reminded him.
The two of them went straight to the martial arts field. It was just a small episode, and it was not a grievance or humiliation. In the Fallen Immortal Realm, where the strong were respected, it didn't matter if Master Jin Dan couldn't control his anger.
Gu Lou watched the two of them leave, his hands hidden under his fists tightened. He didn't know what he was thinking. His expression seemed to have been wrong ever since Lin Hui left with the woman, as if he was trying his best to suppress something.
Finally calming down, he walked to several cultivators and saw Zhao Ning standing aside.
He was slightly surprised, as if he noticed who Zhao Ning was, but he quickly lowered his head and cupped his hands.
"Master, I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. It's about to sunset. I'll take you and all the experts to the Lin Family Villa to rest. It's on the spiritual line and the spiritual energy is even stronger."
"Yeah." Zhao Ning responded lightly.
The speed of the cultivator is extremely fast, and it only takes half a cup of tea to reach the other village.
Gu Lou led the way. The villa was not as luxurious as Ningyuan. It was very ordinary. It was the place where Zhao Ning followed "Han Xu" before.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the group of them to meet "Han Xu".
There was a person following him. He was a very young cultivator. He looked less than ten years old. He looked unruly. He had a folding fan on his waist and was walking forward, beating his waist and back. "Han Xu" followed him with his head lowered.
When Gu Lou saw them coming, he quickly stepped aside and bowed, calling out, "Young Master."
The other cultivators took a rough look at the two people's cultivation realms and handed over to "Han Xu" behind him, "Zhenren."
The young boy paused, glanced at these people, and said, "Who are they?"
With that arrogant expression, even Zhao Ning, who was in the middle stage of Jindan, was not taken seriously by him.
"Back to you young master, this is a cultivator who responded to the recruitment of our guest from the Lin family."
The young boy just took a look, and his eyes fell directly on Zhao Ning, "This fairy is so good-looking. Is she also here to participate in the recruitment of our guests?"
His eyes looked at it very directly, as if he was examining an item.
And "Lin Ying"'s character has never been forbearing. When she moved her fingertips, she saw a spiritual light piercing the young boy.
Before the young boy could react, Gu Lou immediately stopped in front of the young boy. The spiritual light hit him in the middle of his chest, and then a stream of blood came out of the corner of his mouth.
After a pause, "Han Xu" stepped forward.
His voice was hoarse, "What do you mean, Your Excellency, you dare to attack me...my young master of the Lin family!"
"Lin Ying" raised her eyes and stared at him, "It's just a reminder to the young master. It's okay not to have those eyes."
As he spoke, he walked to the side and didn't care about them at all.
"You!" This word came out with emphasis from the young boy and "Han Xu" at the same time.
"Young Master." Gu Lou reminded.
Only the dissatisfied anger of the young boy was left, "Where did the real person come from? Why is he so arrogant in the middle stage of Jindan? In the realm of our Lin family's Jindan, he is only qualified to be a protector."
Gu Lou lowered his head, with sarcasm flashing in his eyes, and whispered, "Young Master, I have said it before."
The young boy snorted and patted Gu Lou on the shoulder, "Gu Lou, you did a good job. You are indeed the one chosen by Sister Dandan. From now on, you will be a member of my Lin family. Let father give it to you too." Equipped with a golden elixir 'protector'."
Gu Lou lowered his head, his body trembling slightly because he was injured or something else.
At night, the sea breeze blows over Ningming Island with a fishy and salty smell.
Even though most of them are cultivators, they still retain the habit of rising day and night.
In a deserted area on the outskirts, far away from the city and far away from the mortal villages outside the city.
But he saw a figure dancing a sword in the forest. The sword was bright and intimidating, but it seemed to be deliberately suppressed.
The sword light didn't even harm the surrounding tree trunks at all, but the man kept dancing with his sword. He didn't have any sword skills at all. He just kept attacking the trees and venting the anger in his heart.
Until the end, the sword seemed to be a burden. The person who was venting his anger simply gave up the sword in his hand, and kept hammering the trees in front of him with his head down.
The fist became more and more fierce and faster, and even the shadow of the fist could not be seen, but he did not stop at all. Until the end, even without using true energy, the trees in front of him were knocked down by his brute force. .
With a loud bang, his body froze, as if he realized something, and he gasped very quickly on the spot.
In the end, the emotions in his heart seemed to be unable to be suppressed no matter what, and he suddenly yelled.
"Oh--"
Then he punched the surroundings like crazy, with enough force to hit the tree trunk that two people could barely hold together. His fists were stained with blood on the tree trunk, and the tree trunk collapsed suddenly, followed by the second tree, the third tree, and more and more. Trees fell to the ground with a thud.
His fist was unconsciously blessed with magic and spiritual power, and he swung it in a circle. Dozens of trees fell down with a rumble. The sound was far beyond the sound just now, and even mortal ears could hear it.
But he seemed to be completely caught up in his emotions, without any pause at all.
Suddenly, a slight voice came from the forest.
"If you continue to vent your anger, at dawn tomorrow, everyone passing by will know that the Lin family's future new son-in-law is dissatisfied with the Lin family."
The voice was very soft, so soft that it seemed as if it only passed through the person's ears.
The man's movements finally stopped, and panic finally took over among the complicated emotions. He clenched his bleeding fists tightly and slowly looked in the direction of the sound.
But he saw a figure turning out from behind a big tree.
It's Zhao Ning.
Gu Lou paused, his mood gradually getting lower. He glanced at Zhao Ning, raised his hands and bowed, "Master Lin."
Zhao Ning responded meaninglessly.
Gu Lou couldn't help but asked, "Master Lin, why are you here to see me?"
He lowered his head, "I know that Master Lin seems to have helped Du Bo and the others a lot, and he is a kind-hearted real man. However, Master Lin, I don't want you to interfere in my affairs."
"I didn't interfere in your affairs."
Zhao Ning said lightly, and then suddenly raised her hand, with a flick of her fingertips, a bit of clear light flew out, fainted in the air, and slowly spread on the surface, completely covering the two of them in an invisible barrier, not even an ant could think of it. Easily enter the barrier.
"I'm just here to make a deal with you."
Gu Lou lowered his head, using this action to cover up the shock on his face, and did not make a sound in response.
Zhao Ning seemed to be minding his own business and continued talking.
"I can help you rescue the woman's soul. In exchange, you have to tell me the details of the Lin family, or where their human soul is hidden."
Gu Lou suddenly raised his head.
He knew that the woman Zhao Ning was talking about was the woman in Lin Hui's arms, but how did Zhao Ning find out and how did she know that he knew all this.
Zhao Ning knew his question, but had no intention of answering it for him.
Just ask, "Is that woman your closest relative?"
Gu Lou suddenly realized that he was too emotional. Over the years, his emotions seemed to have been suppressed to the extreme and he could no longer hide them.
Gu Lou closed his eyes, and then said slowly, "That's my mother."
When he opened his eyes again, his emotions exploded, "But she was attracted by that bastard Lin Hui. He insulted my mother. When she refused, he forced me. Later, my mother couldn't bear the humiliation and committed suicide on the spot, but he forcibly detained me. My mother’s soul also transformed my mother’s body into his human puppet.”
Gu Lou still feels sick when he thinks of Lin Hui murmuring, "Xue'er, from now on you are me and I am you, there is no difference between us."
"The Lin family is a bunch of bastards who practice orthodoxy and do evil things. When I rescue my mother, then... just..."
At this moment, Gu Lou could no longer speak. His outburst of emotion seemed to have weakened. He covered his face with both hands and slowly squatted down.
"I have finally cultivated to the point of building the foundation, and I have the opportunity to enter the Lin family. Even if I suffer the humiliation from Lin Mindan, it doesn't matter, as long as I can rescue my mother. However, I have already completed the foundation building, and I have already reached the inner part of the Lin family. But why can even that little bastard Lin Rui be so condescending to me? Why am I weaker than an ant in front of them? Why, why."
Although he has lived for decades, Gu Lou is crying like a child at this moment.
He knew better than anyone that he could not save his mother by himself, and that he could not enter the Lin family's forbidden area by himself.
But what about the real person in front of him, this real person who seems to be kind to Linghua and the Du family? Can he really help him and bring his mother out?
He raised his head slightly and looked at Zhao Ning between his fingers, trying to hide the cowardice, fear and doubt in his eyes with such movements.
"Even if you tell me the truth, you won't lose anything, right?" Zhao Ning said calmly, not being disturbed by his emotions.
Gu Lou moved slightly, but he didn't want "Lin Ying" to speak bluntly.
"You will still be the coward who harbors sworn hatred but still compromises with the Lin family, won't you?"
These words were like an extremely sharp arrow piercing Gu Lou's heart.
