Sudden Killing Intent

After Lin Qingbai colluded with Chen Jinmeng of the Chen Family to secretly use the illegal drug "Revitalization Powder" and openly sell inferior Spirit Beasts in the West Market, not only were they both punished by County Magistrate Song Zhiyi, but even the Lin and Chen Families behind them received severe reprimands from the County Magistrate.

In his fury, the Lin Family Patriarch, Lin Yuan Kui, placed Lin Qingbai under house arrest.

Later, due to the pleas of Lin Qingshan and others, and coupled with the recent death of his grandson Lin Jiangye, Lin Yuan Kui feared Lin Qingbai might harm himself. His heart softened, and he finally lifted Lin Qingbai's confinement yesterday.

When Lin Qingbai returned to his room, two voices constantly echoed in his ears.

One voice was the sound of his son, Lin Jiangye, his laughter and his appearance.

When Lin Jiangye had just died, Lin Qingbai had no idea how many Spirit Stones and how much effort he had spent investigating the cause of his son's death, but he found nothing.

This caused him to be somewhat mentally scattered now.

The other voice belonged to Meng Haoran.

Meng Haoran was about the same age as Lin Jiangye. The moment Lin Qingbai saw Meng Haoran's appearance, he couldn't help but be reminded of his son's face.

Most crucially, Meng Haoran had personally ruined Lin Qingbai's plan!

In Lin Qingbai's view, if Meng Haoran hadn't suddenly appeared in the West Market that day, he would have been able to reclaim his position as the Pavilion Master of Xinghua Lin Pavilion with the Spirit Stones earned from selling inferior Spirit Beasts!

In Lin Qingbai's heart, all of this was related to Meng Haoran!

He listened to these two strange voices in his room for an entire night. He knew that if he stayed in his room any longer, he was bound to cause some trouble.

Therefore, Lin Qingbai, who hadn't slept all night, got up and went into the Lin Family.

He wanted to clear his mind; he wanted to vent.

If he didn't, he would absolutely die of frustration.

After two consecutive days of traveling across counties and replanting five acres of spirit herb land, as well as cultivating some Spirit Beasts, Meng Haoran was truly tired. It wasn't until the afternoon that he finally woke up.

Seeing that it wasn't yet evening, Meng Haoran got up, washed himself, bid farewell to Meng Bohai and Meng Jingshan, picked up Little Tiger, and rode on the Spirit Beast "Twin-Horned Moon Sheep" towards Qingyang County Town.

After all, the "humanity spiritual essence" in Qingyang County Town was far superior to that of Xinghua Village, and the quality of its heaven and earth spiritual energy was also better than Xinghua Village's.

Meng Haoran had already finished dealing with matters in the Meng Family. He could only seize the time to quickly improve his cultivation.

By the time there was still a trace of light in the sky, Meng Haoran had arrived outside Qingyang County Town, at the location of the Meng Family's spirit herb land.

Seeing a familiar figure in the spirit herb land, Meng Haoran patted the Spirit Beast "Twin-Horned Moon Sheep" beneath him, signaling it to stop.

Meng Haoran sat upright on it and called out loudly, "Not bad. Still tending to this spirit herb land at this hour."

The person in the spirit herb land looked up, revealing Meng Xiaoran's face.

Meng Xiaoran said joyfully, "Brother Haoran, why are you here at this time?"

Currently, Meng Haoran was responsible for the spirit herb land and Spirit Beast cultivation in the backyard of the Meng Family in Xinghua Village. Being unable to be in two places at once, he had handed over the management of this spirit herb land to Meng Xiaoran, the son of Meng Bohai.

Meng Haoran looked down at this Meng Family spirit herb land and couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "Heh heh, can't I come?"

Meng Xiaoran scratched his head and laughed, "Of course you can, hehe!"

Meng Haoran thought to himself, Time really flies. In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed. The current strength of our Meng Family still relies on this spirit herb land.

During that time, Meng Haoran had stepped out of the Meng Family in Xinghua Village for the first time and came to this Meng Family spirit herb land. He was full of energy, diligently tending to the First-Tier Spirit Plant "Three-Pattern Wheat" in this spirit herb land every day. He never expected that because of the "Heavenly Cauldron," the Second-Tier Spirit Plant "Six-Pattern Wheat," which the Meng Family had longed for for hundreds of years, would be generated from it.

It was precisely because of this that the Meng Family had secretly accumulated a large amount of Cultivation Resources.

Meng Haoran smiled and said, "Let me see if you've been diligently tending to this spirit herb land, Xiaoran."

Meng Xiaoran made a "please" gesture and said with a smile, "Please review it, Brother Haoran!"

Since the Meng Family spirit herb land before Meng Haoran had once spontaneously generated the Second-Tier Spirit Plant "Six-Pattern Wheat," in order to avoid attracting the attention of other forces, Meng Jingshan had told Meng Xiaoran that if any new "Six-Pattern Wheat" was found in this spirit herb land, it should be pulled out and transferred to the spirit herb land in the backyard of the Meng Family in Xinghua Village.

Because of this, the Meng Family had not worried about attracting the attention of other forces while tending to this spirit herb land during this period.

However, just as Meng Haoran, holding Little Tiger, dismounted from the Spirit Beast "Twin-Horned Moon Sheep," a familiar yet unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out from not far away.

"Meng Family's Haoran! Long time no see!"

The voice was filled with killing intent!

Meng Haoran's hair stood on end in shock. He turned his head and said in a low voice, "Lin Qingbai!"

Meng Haoran was filled with fear. Previously, in the West Market of Qingyang County Town, Lin Qingbai had tried to kill him in the street. Fortunately, Meng Luohai and County Magistrate Song Zhiyi were present, which prevented Lin Qingbai's murderous intent.

The reason Lin Qingbai wanted to chase and kill him in the street was precisely because Meng Haoran had publicly exposed his act of selling inferior Spirit Beasts!

Seeing Lin Qingbai suddenly appear here, Meng Xiaoran quickly ran to Meng Haoran's side and asked in a low voice, "Brother Haoran, what should we do?"

That day, when Meng Xiaoran had accompanied Meng Haoran to expose Lin Qingbai's despicable deeds, Lin Qingbai had also seen him present. However, this kid Meng Xiaoran had run away very quickly and hadn't been caught.

Lin Qingbai said with a cold laugh, "Heh heh, heaven truly favors us, allowing us to meet here. Today, I can properly catch up with you two!"

Ignoring the implied meaning of Lin Qingbai's words, Meng Haoran said softly, "Xiaoran, this is serious. When you get a chance, run to Xinghua Meng Pavilion and ask Clan Uncle Luohai to come!"

Meng Xiaoran asked anxiously, "Brother Haoran, what about you?"

Meng Haoran replied, "Don't be afraid. We'll run in different directions. He can only chase one of us!"

Lin Qingbai seemed to have overheard Meng Haoran's conversation and laughed, "Want to run? Neither of you will escape today!"

Meng Haoran didn't know what madness had taken over Lin Qingbai, to be threatening them here.

Seeing Lin Qingbai slightly raise his foot, Meng Haoran suddenly shouted, "Xiaoran! Run! Little Tiger, go home!"

With his words falling, Meng Haoran and Meng Xiaoran went their separate ways!

One ran towards Qingyang County Town, the other towards the nearby mountain forest. Suddenly, Little Tiger plunged into the spirit herb land, heading in the direction of Xinghua Village.

Lin Qingbai roared, "You will all die today!"

With that, Lin Qingbai moved towards Meng Xiaoran's retreating figure.

He knew Meng Xiaoran was the weakest, so he would deal with him first before killing Meng Haoran. As for that "Thunderfire Tiger," he no longer cared!

Seeing this, Meng Haoran's heart leaped in alarm. Meng Xiaoran was no match for Lin Qingbai; he would likely die in Lin Qingbai's hands the moment they met.

Just then, a flash of inspiration struck Meng Haoran, and a plan formed in his mind. He shouted, "Lin Qingbai, don't you want to know how Lin Jiangye died?"
