It was like a big hand made of fine iron, strangling Cao Luan's neck. Cao Luan felt it was difficult to breathe. Just when he was about to lose consciousness, he suddenly felt his neck loosen, and then he was thrown to the ground, and a strong pain came.

"Is this what you rely on to identify my spiritual realm?"

Cao Luan was knocked upside down and gasping for air. The helpless feeling of being restrained made him unable to react at the moment.

Lin Sheng was playing with a jade ball glowing with a faint red light in his hand, with a look of interest on his face.

Although he didn't pay much attention to this half-grown boy since he entered the door, he still clearly knew from his perception that the boy's attitude towards him changed drastically after the jade ball changed color.

In particular, the young man was able to identify his realm with this thing, which surprised him. You must know that during this period of time, he has never given up the Concealment Art practice that Qi Ning gave him.

I spend a lot of time practicing this hidden skill every day.

Over the past ten days, he has mastered this technique and is able to blur and cover his own Vital Blood fluctuations. Even Blood Circulation Practitioner, who is extremely sensitive to Vital Blood, cannot see his specific state through perception alone.

But the young man in front of him, who had just entered the Body Tempering realm, could see it, which made him quite curious.

Playing with the round jade ball in his hand, he soon discovered some clues. This thing looked like a jade ball, but it was not.

He picked up the jade ball and put it in front of his eyes, Lin Sheng squinted and looked at it carefully.

The next moment he exerted force with his palm, the jade ball shattered into pieces.

"You... stop!!"

Cao Luan, who finally reacted, saw Lin Sheng's actions and couldn't help shouting.

But Lin Sheng paid no attention to it and just crushed the jade ball to pieces.

Inside was a strange little insect with a faint red glow.

It looks like a firefly that glows red.

Suddenly freed from the trap, the bug wanted to fly away, but Lin Sheng pinched it with two fingers.

At the same time, a string of information emerged from his consciousness.

[Animal name: Jade Moth (larvae) (Mortal Beast)]

[Flying insects that feed on jade are extremely sensitive to Vital Blood fluctuations and are not very aggressive. They have the ability to avoid danger to a certain extent when they become adults. They are ordinary high-level flying insects.]

[Requirements for body entry: None]

[Increase in body penetration: Perception Boost 3]

[Talent: Danger Sense (low level) not activated]

"Jade Moth!?"

Seeing the information description about this little bug in his mind, Lin Sheng showed a look of surprise on his face.

He really didn't expect that this humble-looking little bug turned out to be a high-level mortal Strange Beast.

Although there is only a three-point attribute increase, it has innate abilities.

"Danger Sense sounds like a pretty good ability..."

Lin Sheng's eyes fell on the information panel, on the talent in the last column.

The color of this column appears gray, which is obviously due to the fact that it has not been activated yet.

As for why it hadn't been activated yet, he figured it out after a moment's thought. Apparently the flying insect named Jade Moth was just a larvae, and it should be activated when it reaches adulthood.

While he was thinking, a whistle came from the side.

Lin Sheng suddenly felt Jade Moth in his hand, and his body became quite smooth. It unexpectedly flew out of his palm and fell into the hand of Cao Luan beside him.

Cao Luan looked at the bug in his palm very carefully, and after making sure it was not damaged, he quickly put it away and glared at Lin Sheng.

"What's wrong? Xiaoluan must not be rude to Mr. Ghost Face."

At this time, Cao Ying had already walked out of the room, holding a small jade gourd in her hand. When she saw the two people in the courtyard who were obviously in a wrong atmosphere, she immediately asked.

"Sister, don't believe this person. He is a liar. He is not even Blood Circulation Practitioner. His cultivation level is only in the Muscle Forging realm world. This is what I tested with Jade Moth. It can't be wrong!!"

Seeing his sister coming out, Cao Luan immediately spoke.

Hearing this, Cao Ying frowned slightly, and his beautiful eyes fell on Lin Sheng.

"Your Excellency Ghost Face, you..."

"When you issued the commission, did you ever limit your cultivation level?"

Lin Sheng said calmly without caring.

His eyes moved away from Cao Luan and fell on the woman.

"This is not the case, but Your Excellency Ghost Face, Luo Hu is very strong. Among Blood Circulation realm, he is also a rare master."

Cao Ying spoke softly, his eyes fixed on Lin Sheng from beginning to end, as if he wanted to see clearly the expression on the other person's face at this moment through the cover of the bamboo hat.

"I know, if you feel it's inappropriate, then forget it."

Lin Sheng spoke in a deep voice.

To be honest, although he was interested in this task, it was not to the point where he had to take it on.

In the Wanhua City station, most of the rewards for other Gray Star Emissary are more generous than this task. It just takes more time. Take advantage of this period to temporarily slow down Qingniao Chasing Star Finger's practice, and first practice Ape Fetus Technique or Three Corpses Soul Severing Palm to Blood Circulation realm.

Jade Moth is somewhat interesting, but it doesn't mean much until it grows up. You can pay attention to this flying insect in the future.

"Sister, let him go. This bastard is clearly here to play with us. He dared to attack me just now... You must not give him the task, otherwise..."

Cao Luan on the side looked at Lin Sheng and gritted his teeth and said. Now he still felt waves of pain coming from his neck. The suffocating feeling just now brought a deep shadow to his heart. At the same time, it also made him, who was arrogant and arrogant, feel more and more angry in his heart.

But before he could finish his words, he immediately stopped because he found that the hateful bastard was looking at him at this moment, which made him feel hairy in his heart and the pain in his neck became a little stronger.

Cao Ying didn't answer in a hurry. He just frowned and kept looking at Lin Sheng, wondering what he was thinking.

Lin Sheng didn't have much patience anymore. He stood up and ignored the two of them and walked out the door.

He didn't have any other feelings. After all, he was indeed in the Muscle Forging realm world. If anyone else knew that a muscle-forging warrior was going to kill Blood Circulation Practitioner, and that the opponent also had a group of powerful helpers, he would definitely think it was a joke, or that he wanted to die.

It is normal to want to change the client.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Ghost Face!"

But before he could take a few steps, the voice of Cao Ying sounded behind him.

"I'll leave this mission to you. In addition, there is a moth here. It has been cultivated by me for many years. It has good tracking ability and has recorded the aura of Luo Hu. As long as it is within ten miles, it can be found."

As she said this, she walked a few steps, came to Lin Sheng, and handed over the small jade gourd in her hand.

"Okay."

Seeing this, Lin Sheng glanced at Cao Ying in surprise, but without hesitation, he reached out and took the small jade gourd and turned around and left.

"Sister, what are you doing!!?"

After a while, Cao Luan on the side just reacted. He looked at his sister in disbelief and said immediately.

"He is a muscle-forging warrior. Not to mention killing Luo Hu, even the bosses under Luo Hu may not be his opponents. You also gave him Snow Silver Moth. What if he ran away with Snow Silver Moth!?"

Looking at his sister, Cao Luan felt like she hated iron.

He knows his sister too well, in every aspect, but he trusts others too easily.

In his opinion, that person was clearly a liar. If not a liar, he was definitely a fool.

Thinking of the huge changes in his family, and now only his brother and sister were left, he couldn't just watch Snow Silver Moth be lost like this.

"Xiao Luan, since Mr. Ghost Face has the confidence to take on this task, he must be capable. Father once said that you can't just look at people by their appearance. You must change your impulsive temper, otherwise you will inevitably suffer losses in the future..."

Cao Ying spoke softly and reached out to wipe the red mark on his brother's neck.

She was aware of her brother's reckless and impulsive temperament, and it only took a moment of thought to understand what had happened when she entered the house.

After applying some ointment to her brother, she returned to her room.

In fact, she was also not sure about Lin Sheng. The reason why she handed over Snow Silver Moth to the other party just now was because she was confident that she had a good eye for people. The other party had been acting indifferently since entering the door. Although his power was not as strong as the previous two, it made her feel like she couldn't see through it.

Although she has no cultivation level, her mysterious feeling has been very effective since she was a child. He can vaguely feel the realm of Lord Ghost Face. Although it is not high, it is not weak, and may be stronger than the previous two.

That's why she chose to believe the other party.

But now that I have calmed down and thought about it carefully, I still feel that I was a little impulsive, and I feel that it is impossible to make mistakes all the time.

We should do more experiments, but it's obviously too late now.

"I hope my vision is not wrong this time..."

She looked through the window at the sky outside and murmured to herself.

And Cao Luan in the front yard was holding the steel knife and waving it wildly as if venting his anger.

But after a while he stopped.

"No, we must not take advantage of that bastard... When will we be able to avenge our father with these losers?"

A look of determination appeared on his somewhat immature face.

On the other hand, after Lin Sheng left, he did not act in a hurry. Instead, he bought some more things that he might use on the street and returned directly to Residence in the city.

In the yard, he was playing with a delicate jade gourd.

With a flick of the finger, the plug of the jade gourd was opened.

Soon a snow-white moth flew out from it. This moth is larger than the usual moths and looks plump.

The moth was not very fast, and it did not fly away after being freed from its restraints. Instead, it kept circling around the jade gourd, as if something was attracting it.

Lin Sheng opened his palm, and the moth slowly flew into his palm as if it was spiritual.

And the information about this moth quickly emerged in his mind.

"It turned out to be another high-level mortal flying insect."

When he saw the information on the panel, he raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of surprise on his face.

This snow-white moth, called Snow Silver Moth, is the same as the insect hidden in the jade ball before, it is a high-level ordinary Strange Beast.

Although he is not as gifted as that little insect, his amplification attributes are stronger.

There is also only one attribute, perception, but Perception Boost has reached four points.

This is Mortal Beast, and he has seen Strange Beast with the highest perception attribute.

No wonder the woman would give this thing to herself, the 4 o'clock Perception Boost, the tracking ability of this Snow Silver Moth is indeed very good.

Even Lin Sheng had the idea of incorporating this Snow Silver Moth into his body, but just thinking about it, he gave up the idea for the time being.

Snow Silver Moth, as a high-end Strange Beast flying insect, is naturally expensive, much higher than the ordinary high-end Mortal Beast.

Besides, this is not his thing. Although he is not a good person, he still doesn't want to take something from others for nothing.

Also, Strange Beast, a small flying insect like this, has never entered his body before, so the details are still uncertain.

The amount of blood entering the body will basically not kill Strange Beast, but the proportion is not low. Origin Energy will definitely not be able to escape serious injury.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. After completing this mission, we can discuss it with that Cao Ying. We might as well spend some money to incorporate this Snow Silver Moth into our body."

He thought so.

"And these two siblings don't seem to be as weak as they look. With flying insects of Jade Moth and Snow Silver Moth around them, there should be some secrets between them."

He has made up his mind that after the mission is completed, he can have more contact with that Cao Ying. It would be great if there is a mature Jade Moth.

After thinking about it, he put the moth back into the jade gourd and began to practice breathing control.

He has decided to leave for Pingshan County tomorrow to search for traces of the Red-haired Bandits group and complete the mission as soon as possible.

Just fall into practice here.

Shuixiang Street.

"Sister, go to bed early. You haven't slept well these past few days. If you don't take a good rest, I'm worried that you won't be able to bear it..."

In the yard, Cao Ying Cao Luan had finished dinner, and Cao Luan took the initiative to put away the dishes and persuaded his sister to go to bed early.

Cao Ying had a look of relief on his face, feeling deeply that his brother was becoming more sensible.

She really hadn't slept well during this period. Now that someone else had taken over the task, it was time for her to have a good sleep, so she didn't shirk it.

"Xiao Luan, after cleaning up later, you should rest early and stop practicing martial arts."

"I know, sister, don't worry."

Cao Luan had a smile on his face, and the movements of his hands became more and more agile. As he watched his sister enter the room and go to sleep, the smile on his face also disappeared.

After washing the dishes and chopsticks of the two of them expressionlessly, and making sure that her sister was completely asleep, Cao Luan went directly to the last room in the corridor with a heavy door lock without any hesitation.

He took out the key from under the loose brick in the shadow on one side, unlocked the door softly, ducked in, and stepped out after a while.

There was already a cylindrical thing in his hand, as thick as a baby's forearm.

He held the cylindrical thing tightly in his hand, with a look of determination on his face, looking towards his sister's room, and whispered in a deep voice.

"Don't worry, sister, if that bastard dares to lie to us, I will make him pay the price. I will also personally avenge my father and kill that Luo Hu..."

Before he could finish his words, the man had already rushed into the darkness outside the courtyard.
