Lin Xuankong, with an icy expression,
With a glimmer of hope in his heart, his gaze fell upon Li Xiaohu's corpse.
Lin Xuankong possesses the Manluo Demonic Grass and Demonic Pearl.
Of course, you can find the killer's trail by following the scents left at the scene!
However, at this moment, Lin Xuankong,
What he really wanted to do was to save his former friends and several subordinates with whom he had a very good relationship!
With the consumption of one hundred points of True Qi,
Above Li Xiaohu's corpse, a seemingly real yet illusory Spirit Soul suddenly appeared, a Spirit Soul that was exactly the same as Li Xiaohu.
At this moment, the seemingly real yet illusory Li Xiaohu wore a look of confusion on his face.
He looked down at his own corpse with some confusion, then at his own Spirit Soul and body. Soon, the bewilderment on his face turned into a look of astonishment!
Li Xiaohu glanced at the crowd around him, then his Spirit Soul eyes fell upon Lin Xuankong.
After floating over unsteadily, he waved at Lin Xuankong and said something.
However, being only Spirit Soul, he couldn't utter a sound. Only Lin Xuankong, who knew Lip Reading, understood that Little Tiger was saying, " Uncle Lin, can you see me?"
Lin Xuankong suddenly felt a sense of relief, then continued to activate the Great Samsara Technique, looking towards the other people's corpses.
Soon, the Spirit Soul of Han Lu, Yang Shan, and Li Er all floated out of the corpses.
Even after Han Lu's right leg hadn't fully recovered, he still habitually limped after becoming Spirit Soul.
After a moment of astonishment, he floated to Ma Jiang's side and kept waving and talking to his master!
pity,
Apart from Lin Xuankong, everyone present...
Neither Ma Jiang nor Gao Yunchao, neither Zhao Yufei nor Jiang Yurán could see the Spirit Soul of these four people, nor could anyone sense their presence!
No matter how much Han Lu, Yang Shan, and Li Er shouted or shook their bodies, they didn't sense anything. Even when Han Lu passed right through Ma Jiang's body, Ma Jiang didn't feel anything at all!
Lin Xuankong then withdrew the Great Samsara Technique and shook his head slightly at the remaining dozen or so corpses of the Yin Talisman Sect.
Li Xiaohu's body lay across the innermost part of the warehouse.
The little guy he had always taken care of died behind Han Lu. Clearly, Li Xiaohu was also valued by this manager, so much so that when they encountered the enemy, he was protected on the innermost side and was the last to die!
Han Lu, Yang Shan, and Li Er, on the other hand, were relatively strong, so they sacrificed themselves later.
The corpses of the other disciples had long since exceeded the 132-breath time limit of the Great Samsara Technique!
Of course, seeing that the Spirit Soul of the four people he cared about most had been extracted, Lin Xuankong had calmed down by now.
Even if we could save these disciples right now, we might not necessarily take action!
The Great Samsara Technique is such a terrifying and mysterious Demonic Technique that it is enough to terrify anyone. The fewer people who know about it, the better!
Han Lu, Yang Shan, Li Er, and Little Tiger were people Lin Xuankong had an extremely good relationship with within the Yin Talisman Sect, so of course he would save them. But as for the others, saving too many people might leak the news! Seeing that the four Spirit Soul now completely safe, Lin Xuankong let out a sigh of relief and looked at Ma Jiang and Jiang Yurán, " Manager Jiang, Boss, I have an urgent matter to attend to and must leave for a while, but don't worry, I will definitely find a way to find the culprit!"
After saying that, Lin Xuankong turned and walked outside.
The Spirit Soul of Han Lu, Yang Shan, Bald Li Er, and Li Xiaohu were involuntarily carried away by Lin Xuankong into the distance!
Bald Li Er's Spirit Soul approached Yang Shan's Spirit Soul and muttered something to himself, while Han Lu and Li Xiaohu kept interrupting.
"Are we dead?" Li Er touched his bald head.
Yang Shan frowned, "He's probably not quite dead yet!"
Han Lu raised an eyebrow, "Half-dead?"
Li Xiaohu shook his head and said, "Three stewards, we must be completely dead, turned into ghosts, right? The feeling of becoming a ghost is so strange! I used to be terrified when my dad told me stories of fierce ghosts, but now that I've become a ghost myself, it doesn't feel like much. Just now, Steward Han slapped Steward Ma a few times, but couldn't touch Steward Ma at all. It seems that ghosts don't have much attack power!"
Han Lu's eyes widened.
"Which eye of yours saw me slap my master?"
I was just trying it out, to see if I could touch the master!
Let me tell you, I, Han Lu, am a person who is 100% filial to my master. Even if I die, even if I become a ghost, I would never slap my master!
Bald Li Er laughed, "Ambidextrous! Steward Han is indeed a filial son!"
Han Lu:
The group chatted for a while, then floated around with curious expressions.
Occasionally, when they encountered a few passersby, Bald Li Er would stretch out his bald head and peer into their stomachs and chests!
Those passersby, regardless of gender or age, had absolutely no idea that a bald head was inside their bodies, moving in and out!
Han Lu laughed and said, " Deputy Steward Li, that was a pregnant woman just now. Aren't you afraid that by crawling around like that, you'll be reincarnated as someone else's son?"
Bald Li Er was taken aback. "Really?"
Yang Shan, who was usually quite calm, looked at Lin Xuankong, who was leaping forward continuously, with some doubt.
"Something feels off. Why are the four of us constantly drifting towards Steward Lin's direction? It seems we can't get away from Steward Lin at all! Could it be that our ghostly appearance is related to Steward Lin?"
"It is indeed related!"
Lin Xuankong's voice suddenly came.
Han Lu, Li Er, Yang Shan, and Li Xiaohu were all taken aback.
Li Xiaohu asked in surprise, " Uncle Lin, you can see the four of us ghosts? You can hear our conversations?"
Lin Xuankong was now standing in his own garden, under the Old Willow Tree, frowning as he looked at the four people.
After frowning and pondering for a while, his brows relaxed, and he said, "I recently acquired a secret technique that can defy fate, change destiny, and reverse life and death. You four have certainly caught the wave!"
Defying fate and reversing life and death?
Han Lu, Li Er, Yang Shan, and Li Xiaohu were all taken aback.
The four of them were clearly somewhat skeptical, but considering their current state, and Lin Xuankong's words, they couldn't help but look puzzled.
As the branches of the Old Willow Tree swayed, Lin Xuankong's expression turned serious.
"However, my secret technique is far too astonishing! After I find suitable bodies for the four of you and you are reborn, you must promise me one thing: you will never reveal this matter!"
Upon hearing this, all four were startled.
Yang Shan's face showed disbelief. " Steward Lin, do you mean... that we can be reincarnated and continue living?"
Bald Li Er scratched his head vigorously, his face full of astonishment, "There's actually such a secret technique!"
"My God! Isn't this just like the legendary immortals?! Is it real?!" Young Li Xiaohu exclaimed, his eyes wide with surprise.
Han Lu limped over to Lin Xuankong's side, his face full of astonishment, and said, " Steward Lin, are you telling the truth? If you can really bring us back to life, I'd be willing to do anything, not only to help you cover this up, but even to acknowledge you as my ancestor!"
How could these four not be astonished? To be resurrected from the dead and to have one's fate changed—such miraculous methods were unheard of, even in their ears. How could Martial Cultivator possibly accomplish such a feat!
Moreover, how could people who have died once not be overjoyed to have a chance to be reborn!
Lin Xuankong nodded slightly, "However, who exactly killed the four of you? Did you see the killer's face?"
Han Lu leaned against the willow tree, and accidentally leaned into its trunk. After pulling himself out, he said:
"The five men who looted the First Warehouse tonight were all dressed in black, wearing Ghost Face Mask and bamboo hats. They were obviously impersonating the senior Hat Guest! However, when those five men spoke, I could hear the accents of two of them. One of them should be a steward of the Feng Family, named Feng Ercai!"
Furthermore, the sword technique used by Feng Ercai was clearly that of the Feng Family.
The other Hat Guest, though wielding a black iron staff instead of a sword, used attack patterns identical to the Guo Family's swordsmanship, suggesting he was a master of the Guo Family!
These five were all at the third or fourth level of cultivation. Although only two of them made a move, even with our combined efforts, we couldn't hold out for long before we were all killed!
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuankong frowned.
"So, Steward Jiang's guess was correct! The Feng family, the Guo family, and the Black Tiger Gang are starting to act desperately because of the medicinal herbs!"
Yang Shan frowned and said, "Perhaps it's to divert attention, after all, they all came dressed as Hat Guest!"
Disguised as Hat Guest!
A cold glint appeared in Lin Xuankong's eyes. "In that case, the bodies of the four of you have been taken care of!"
The Feng Family, inner hall of the east courtyard.
Feng Mengshan, the head of the Feng Family, and Feng Menghu, the second-in-command, were each sitting in a grand chair.
Feng Mengshan looked at the two swordsmen dressed in black in front of him and smiled. " Feng Ercai and Feng Sancai, you two did a good job this time. Ten thousand portions of medicinal herbs, although not enough to cause the Yin Talisman Sect to suffer a major blow, will allow our Feng Family to get four thousand portions of medicinal herbs in our hands, which will help alleviate our immediate crisis!"
"Did you leave any openings this time?"
Feng Ercai, one of the two swordsmen in black, cupped his hands and said:
"Rest assured, Master, we haven't left any flaws!"
Even though Han Lu and the others recognized me, it was to no avail; none of the twenty-odd Yin Talisman Sect members survived!
In addition, I deliberately dressed in black, wearing a mask and a straw hat, so that several people in Cattle Horse Street could see me!
If the Yin Talisman Sect conducts a thorough investigation tomorrow, they will definitely find out: the Hat Guest not only provoked the Black Tiger Gang and the Guo Family and Feng Family, but also plundered the Yin Talisman Sect on a large scale!
Feng Mengshan laughed and said, "Good! This time we've decided to join forces with the Guo Family's Black Tiger Gang to deal with the Hat Guest. As long as the Yin Talisman Sect doesn't cause trouble, that Hat Guest is doomed!"
Now that this has happened, even if Jiang Yuran and Li Zhenhuan aren't certain that the Hat Guest was responsible, they will definitely be suspicious. And when the battle of Qiu City comes the day after tomorrow, they will absolutely not help the Hat Guest!
Feng Menghu burst into laughter.
"This time, the patriarch has killed three birds with one stone; it's truly a brilliant plan!"
"This will not only deal with the Yin Talisman Sect, but also obtain the medicinal herbs, and make the Yin Talisman Sect suspicious of the Hat Guest!"
Before he could finish speaking,
Suddenly, a large amount of Yao Qi rose up inside the house.
At the feet of Feng Mengshan and Feng Menghu, thick vines sprouted and tightly wrapped around their legs.
Immediately afterwards,
Wearing a bamboo hat and a mask, Lin Xuankong burst through the window, raising his hands, each holding an incredibly bright ball of lightning!
Lin Xuankong is now at the sixth level, and with the addition of the Shadow Concealing Primordial Art, his speed is terrifying. His stealthy attacks far exceed the reaction speed of Feng Mengshan and Feng Menghu, and the two swordsmen in black have no reaction at all.
The next moment,
The Yin Talisman Sect's strongest lightning technique, the Soul Severing Heavenly Thunder Divine Art, formed two lightning balls that struck Feng Mengshan, the head of the Feng Family, and Feng Menghu, the second-in-command, respectively!
Feng Mengshan and Feng Menghu, who had been beaming with pride, suddenly went limp, their Spirit Soul extinguished, and they collapsed to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen thick, long, bright red tongues wrapped around the two Black-clothed man.
"Who are you? How dare you attack the head of my Feng Family!"
"No, he's a Hat Guest!"
Both Feng Ercai and Feng Sancai exclaimed in surprise.
However, the moment they uttered a sound, the Ghost Frog King's tongue sealed their mouths.
Next, they could only make some soft "hmm" and "ooh" sounds as they watched helplessly as the " Hat Guest " walked up to their master.
Lin Xuankong's gaze fell on Feng Mengshan and Feng Menghu, a hint of anticipation in his eyes. This was the first time he had used the Great Samsara Technique to transfer the Spirit Soul of humans to their bodies, so he naturally felt a sense of novelty!
He addressed the group around him, asking, "Of the four of you, who wants to be the head of the Feng Family?"
Upon hearing this, both Feng Ercai and Feng Sancai looked terrified and confused. What the hell?
What is the Hat Guest saying? Is he the head of the Feng Family?
With thousands of Martial Cultivator in the Feng Family, how could they possibly let someone else become the family head? That's just wishful thinking.
Moreover, who is this Hat Guest talking to? There's no one around him!
