"Congratulations, Senior Brother! You've offended five sects at once, which will surely bring endless trouble in the future, so we need to be extra careful." An Inner Sect Disciple clasped his hands in a salute to the leader of the Beiming Sect, offering his congratulations.
The leader of the Beiming Sect laughed heartily, "Thank you for reminding us. We did indeed overlook something in this matter, and we will pay attention in the future."
"Um, senior brother, I heard from Master that you're getting married to that woman. Is that true?" Another Inner Sect Disciple asked the sect leader of the Beiming Sect with curiosity.
"It's true, we'll be getting married soon, and you'll all have to come to the wedding. I'll give you a generous gift," the leader of the Beiming Sect said with a smile.
Upon hearing the Northern Darkness Sect Leader's words, the other Inner Sect Disciple became excited and hurriedly asked, "Senior Brother, what generous gift is it?"
"You don't need to know that, I have my own arrangements." The leader of the Beiming Sect waved his hand, a smug smile on his face.
Disappointment was evident on everyone's faces at the words of the Beiming Sect leader, but they dared not show it, for their fates were in the leader's hands, and they dared not act recklessly.
The leader of the Beiming Sect then instructed the remaining Inner Sect Disciple: "There's no danger now, you can all go back to your rooms and rest!"
"Yes, Master!" Everyone replied and returned to their rooms to begin recuperating.
After everyone had left, the leader of the Beiming Sect watched their departing figures, a cruel smile curving his lips.
" Lin Yu, you still can't escape my grasp after all. Hmph, I'll see where you can run to this time!"
"No matter where you run, I will never let you go easily!" the leader of the Beiming Sect said through gritted teeth.
He then composed himself, turned and went into the room, intending to study the map carefully, then find a secluded spot to set a trap and lure Lin Yu out.
Lin Yu was unaware that he was being targeted by some conspiracy, and at the moment he was concentrating on healing his damaged dantian and meridians.
"Hoo..." Lin Yu exhaled a breath of stale air, slowly opened his eyes, and glanced around. He found himself still in a forest, and quite far from the Beiming Sect. He estimated he still had a long way to go.
"Not bad, although some meridians were damaged, it's not serious." Lin Yu stood up, a smile on his face.
"I wonder if Xiaodie and the others have arrived safely at the Beiming Sect. They've been relentlessly pursued by Tianlang and Tianhu. I wonder how they are doing now," Lin Yu muttered to himself, feeling worried about their safety.
"My lord, we have arrived at our destination." Suddenly, a voice reached Lin Yu's ears; it was Little Eagle King.
Lin Yu looked up in the direction of the sound and saw that Little Eagle King was leading dozens of Inner Sect Disciple toward them.
"Senior brother, you're finally back." Little Eagle King stopped in front of Lin Yu Lin Yu, clasped his hands in a salute, and bowed to him.
Lin Yu nodded slightly and asked, "Has there been any movement from Sirius's group?"
Little Eagle Wang Dao, "There's been no movement at all. I sent some people to secretly monitor them, but they haven't made any unusual moves. I don't know what they're up to."
Lin Yu nodded, feeling relieved. Tianlang and his men were definitely setting up a trap. Once their plan succeeded, he would be unable to escape. Therefore, he could not afford to make any mistakes.
"Let's go, let's go to the main hall of the Beiming Sect first." Lin Yu said, his figure rushing towards the main hall. He couldn't wait to know if his cultivation had broken through to the seventh level of Body Refinement.
Inside the main hall, the leader of the Beiming Sect was chatting with the leaders of several other sects.
"Sect Leader, what do you intend to do with this brat?" To the left and right of the Northern Darkness Sect Leader sat Tianlang and Tianhu, respectively. Upon seeing Lin Yu, they both revealed expressions of anger.
The leader of the Beiming Sect glanced at the two indifferently and said coldly, "You two are also from the Scorpion Imperial City, aren't you? I captured Lin Yu this time because he committed a grave mistake."
"Oh? What terrible mistake have we little people made that warrants such a large mobilization from the sect leader?" Tianlang asked, a sinister glint in his eyes.
The leader of the Beiming Sect said calmly, " Lin Yu murdered over two hundred of my Beiming Sect disciples. His crimes are too numerous to count, so I will absolutely not let him go. Furthermore, I will use Lin Yu's blood to wash away the shame of my sect!"
"Our leader is wise! We support him and will tear this brat to pieces!" The leader of another sect immediately chimed in.
Hearing these agreements, Tianlang and Tianhu exchanged glances, and then Tianlang spoke up, "Sect Leader, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask it."
The leader of the Beiming Sect said calmly, "Speak, what are your doubts?"
Tianlang said, "Sect Leader, I don't understand why you're targeting this kid. Is it because he's a prodigy, a monster?"
Tianhu said, "I think it's not just because of that. I suspect he has a deep-seated hatred for the Beiming Sect. That's for sure. Sect Leader, do you think this kid offended you in the past, which is why you're dealing with him?"
"Yes, we are indeed here because of hatred." The leader of the Beiming Sect nodded, then looked at the Sky Eagle King and the Earth Serpent King, and said in a deep voice, "You all know the grudge between my Beiming Sect and Lin Yu. Do you think I am dealing with him for that reason?"
"This..." Both the Sky Eagle King and the Earth Serpent King hesitated.
"Alright, you don't need to ask any more questions. I already have the answer in my heart. You don't need to say anything more." The leader of the Beiming Sect waved his hand. He was also a little unsure, not knowing who Lin Yu had offended, but he was unwilling to tell Tianlang and the others, wanting to handle it himself.
Seeing the Northern Darkness Sect Leader's insistence, the three—Sky Wolf, Earth Serpent King, and Sky Eagle King—exchanged glances and finally had no choice but to shut their mouths.
At this moment, Lin Yu also walked over. Hearing the three's conversation, he understood their purpose and bowed to them, saying, "Greetings, my esteemed grandmaster uncles."
Upon seeing Lin Yu, the Heavenly Eagle King, the Earth Serpent King, and the Heavenly Eagle King all showed disgust in their eyes. The Heavenly Eagle King even cursed, "You little beast, how dare you attack the sect leader! You are truly audacious! But since the sect leader has spared your life, then you can keep it and wait for your punishment. You killed so many disciples of my Northern Darkness Sect; we will settle this score with you sooner or later."
Hearing the Eagle King's insults, Lin Yu's anger surged. He sneered, "Eagle King, do you really think I'm afraid of you? In that case, I'll send you to your death first, so you won't keep jumping around in front of me!"
