Lin Yan was not arrogant. He was so confident that he thought he could really run the Xuantian Sect with his "Tian Zhi".
This night trip was just to explore the other party's reality and confirm something.
Therefore, Lin Yan only came to the mountainside, but did not plan to sneak to a higher place to avoid exposing himself. When the time comes, you can't steal the chicken but lose the rice, and you can't even escape!
This kind of super sect is already heavily guarded. It is no exaggeration to say that it is a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, and no casual person can get close to it.
Now that Lin Yan was able to successfully infiltrate, it was not because of his outstanding strength, but simply because of the miraculous use of the "Tianzhi" method.
However, if the opponent's realm is much higher than Lin Yan, then this method will lose its effect.
Therefore, Lin Yan appeared to be very cautious, avoiding some patrolling disciples, and then shuttled between some residences.
Xuantian Sect has a strict hierarchy. Generally speaking, the higher the status and the stronger the person, the higher the residence is closer to Xuantian Peak. The disciples at the bottom can only live at the foot of the mountain. In addition to doing some chores, if an enemy attacks, these people will be the first wave of cannon fodder.
In almost all sects, the lives of lower-level disciples are worthless, and the senior sect leaders only really care about their own lives and interests.
However, the reputation of Xuantian Sect is so far-reaching that even the ordinary disciples act like "I am the best in the world", and they will not believe that someone dares to come up the mountain. In their eyes, such behavior is no different from seeking death.
Therefore, even if such a patrol could not be said to be in vain, it was meaningless in front of Lin Yan, who was well prepared.
Most of the people living on the mountainside are some elders of Xuantian Sect. Different from the masters who chased Lin Yan at the beginning, the elders here are basically of Houtian realm strength, and they are not above or below the Xuantian Sect. Location.
Although their status is not the highest, almost all major and minor matters in Xuantian Sect pass through their hands, and it is much easier to get information from them than from the real high-level officials.
Lin Yan came to Xuantian Peak not empty-handed, but with some preparations. For example, he had a copy of the topographic map of the lower part of Xuantian Peak.
Of course, the map is not too detailed, but roughly indicates some directions and major building groups. However, this is already extremely amazing!
You know, this is Xuantian Sect, and it is impossible for idlers to easily go up the mountain, let alone draw the topographic map here.
Although there is nothing too confidential about the topographic map at the lower level, it is related to the Xuantian Sect's face. If it is discovered, it will definitely take action.
It has to be said that the person who created this topographic map is not very courageous. This is clearly a challenge to the dignity of Xuantian Sect.
The topographic map was obtained from the little princess. After she returned to the palace, she sent someone to send it out of the palace, but some tricks were used and no one noticed.
Based on this, it can be inferred that this topographic map should be the handiwork of the royal family. However, it is still unknown why this kind of thing is in the hands of the little princess. We can only ask about it next time we meet!
After wandering around, I came to an elder's residence, where several people were talking. They listened carefully, and the sounds slowly entered their ears.
One person complained: "This period of time has made me very tired. Not only the disciples below, but also I have to travel here and there every day. What kind of life have I been living like this?"
Another person was surprised when he heard this: "Isn't it right? You actually went into battle in person. Can't we just leave this kind of thing to the disciples below?"
The former said: "The person who needs attention is not an ordinary character. If the disciples mess up, we still can't escape!"
At this time, a third person intervened: "It makes sense. It's easy for a while, but you have to take a lot of risks. Now this matter is not about you and me, but about the entire sect. If something goes wrong Neither you nor I can afford any trouble!"
When the man heard this, he still said indifferently: "What can go wrong? Now the overall situation is under control, even the Tang Emperor has..."
Before he finished speaking, someone stopped him and said: "Silence! Be careful that walls have ears!"
The man whispered: "What are you afraid of? This is a sect. Who dares to spy here?"
Having said that, he did not continue. It's not because of anything else, but because it's hard to guarantee that there won't be spies from other forces among Xuantian Sect's disciples. After all, this kind of thing is unavoidable.
They can place spies among other forces, and other forces can naturally do the same. This is something that everyone understands tacitly. It's just up to you whether you can tell them apart or not!
Then someone else said: "Hey, who made us all have to work hard? It's not like those elders in the Xiantian realm who can just give orders with their lips. They command people in a set way, but I haven't seen them. How to do things.”
After saying that, someone echoed: "That's right! If the people above talk, we will have to run away and break our legs!"
Someone comforted him: "Fortunately, these hard days are coming to an end. When the Tang Kingdom falls into the hands of our clan, we will also be able to reap a lot of benefits."
Speaking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little hot in their hearts. The Tang State was powerful and prosperous, and the treasury was extremely rich. It had various high-level martial arts and countless precious elixirs.
There is naturally no shortage of these things in the sect, but they all have to be exchanged for merit, and they may even have to risk their lives to complete some extremely difficult tasks.
And as long as this thing is successful, then they can share a lot of benefits without any pressure. This kind of good thing is naturally rare, and no wonder they are so excited.
After a conversation, everyone left separately. It was okay to just talk about these things in private. They must not be known to others, otherwise it would be a big trouble!
Lin Yan happened to be meeting at the right time. After hearing this conversation, he understood that the problems arising from the Tang Emperor and the recent secret surveillance of civil and military officials were inseparable from the Xuantian Sect.
He had his eyes on one of those people, the one who mentioned Emperor Tang before. If he wanted to know more information, it seemed that he had to "question" this person. I believe he would cooperate!
Lin Yan memorized his voice, and after everyone separated, Lin Yan followed him like a ghost.
After reaching a secluded place, Lin Yan suddenly took action, appearing behind the elder, and the black knife was placed in front of his neck. The cold chill made the elder shiver.
The elder's name is Jin Lian. As a master of the Houtian realm, he can't be said to be domineering in Xuantian Sect, but his status is not low either, and his daily life is considered comfortable.
Now that the sect is making big moves, Taoist Priest Jin Lian is looking forward to a bright future. Who would have thought that he would be held hostage with a knife in the sect!
Although he was horrified, he quickly calmed down and asked: "Who are you? Do you know who I am? Are you impatient for living if you dare to commit murder in Xuantian Sect?"
Lin Yan brought the black knife a little closer to his neck. The sharp blade scratched Taoist Priest Jinlian's skin, and soon red blood oozed out.
Holding the hilt of the knife in his hand, Lin Yan said: "Where is all this nonsense! Now, I ask, you answer, do you understand?"
Feeling the warmth on his neck, Taoist Priest Jin Lian suddenly became more awake. Now that the situation is stronger than others, he has no doubt that as long as he says "no", the opponent's knife will be chopped down without hesitation.
He was able to easily restrain him. Although he had the advantage of a sneak attack, the strength of the other party should not be underestimated. In close contact, he felt the terrifying slight pressure of the other party. He only felt that kind of pressure on those elders in the innate realm. Pass.
Lin Yan's voice came: "Where did you hide Emperor Tang?"
Taoist Priest Jinlian was shocked when he heard this, and couldn't help but think: "This person is from the royal family? That's not right. According to the sect's intelligence, the royal family is busy with intrigues now. How can anyone pay attention to this?"
"Furthermore, all the civil and military officials of the Tang Kingdom are being watched by people within the sect. Any disturbance will be reported back to the sect. How can it be possible to let a master of the Xiantian realm escape from control?"
Seeing that Taoist Master Jin Lian remained silent, Lin Yan frowned slightly and said, "Speak!"
The former calmed down his thoughts, and then said: "I don't know the specifics. I only know that Emperor Tang has fallen into our sect's tricks and is now firmly controlled by the higher-ups."
When Lin Yan heard this, he thought to himself: "Sure enough!"
With Li Junlin's methods, if he was in normal condition, no one from the Xuantian Sect could even think of causing trouble in the Tang Dynasty.
It's nothing more than a battle. Although the Xuantian Sect is terrifying, once the bottom line of the Tang Kingdom is touched, Li Junlin definitely has the determination and courage to start a full-scale war with it!
However, this determination was a little late after all. Xuantian Sect took the lead and the royal family without Li Junlin was already in chaos. It was almost impossible to expect those princes who only focused on fighting for power to turn the tide. !
"Turn your head!" Lin Yan said in a deep voice, and then Taoist Priest Jinlian could only turn his head as he was told. Then Lin Yan launched "Soul Dispersion" when he was caught off guard.
Then Lin Yan asked again: "Do you know where Emperor Tang is?"
Taoist Priest Jin Lian slowly shook his head and said, "I don't know!"
Lin Yan frowned and thought: "It seems that he really doesn't know!"
Now that Lin Yan is at a higher level than the other party, the "Soul Dispersion" that he can suddenly cast can easily break the other party's defenses, and some secrets cannot be hidden.
Then, Taoist Priest Jinlian hesitated for a moment and said, "Emperor Tang may still be in the palace."
The words were not firm, it might be his speculation. But after hearing this, Lin Yan felt that it made sense!
Even if Emperor Tang is controlled, he cannot disappear for a long time. This will arouse suspicion, so keeping him in the palace and sending experts on his side is the safest way!
After getting the news he wanted, there was no more meaning in continuing. With a single stroke of the black knife in Lin Yan's hand, he cut his throat under the horrified gaze of Taoist Priest Jin Lian.
Only the dead can keep secrets!
Lin Yan didn't want his night break into Xuantian Sect to be exposed. Even if it could be delayed for a while, Taoist Jinlian could only blame himself for his misfortune!
After disposing of the body, Lin Yan's figure disappeared again...
