Chapter 30 Empty City Strategy
Chapter 30 Empty City Strategy
In the yard, two voices kept wailing. After all, no one could bear to have a leg cut off while alive.
Lin Shan looked at the two of them indifferently: "Mr. Zhao really thinks highly of me. He actually sent a top-notch expert to capture me."
The top-notch expert on the ground endured the pain and looked up at the young man sitting on the steps. His face was gentle and his white clothes were as white as snow. He was sitting in the moonlight, looking like he was floating in the air, as if he was going to fly away with the wind in the next moment.
It’s different to be a cultivator. Your temperament and charm will instantly improve.
"Great! I didn't expect the Patriarch to be so wrong." He smiled bitterly:
"You have been lying in ambush here for a long time, right? What kind of hidden weapon is this that is so sharp?"
Lin Shan sat cross-legged peacefully under the moonlight, with a faint noncommittal expression on his face: "Guess."
"Guess what! Brother Zhao, this kid even predicted our night attack tonight. His mind is almost evil. We must not let him stay!"
Another guest of the Zhao family, who was lying on the ground, shouted to the top-notch expert, "I'll send a signal arrow to let the contact person come over. We must get rid of him tonight!"
After saying this, he took out a flare from his arms and was about to release it.
Lin Shan was shocked for a moment.
After he crippled the two men, he did not step forward to end their lives, but sat there motionless, not because he was a "talkative villain" nor was he trying to show off.
It’s because he was afraid that he would be exposed if he stood up!
Because he had just reached the Qi training stage, the little spiritual power in his body was only enough to cast three wind blades. After that, there would be no spiritual power left in his dantian.
Now that he has lost his spiritual power, he is no different from an ordinary person and has no fighting ability at all.
As for the foundation of a warrior in the Qi Exchange Realm? Sorry, since you became a cultivator, the true qi in your dantian has been expelled, and spiritual power is king.
Without true Qi, what kind of warrior are you?
Lin Shan instantly broke out in a cold sweat. If there really was someone from the Zhao family to help him, wouldn't he just be sitting there waiting to die?
Seeing that the guest from the Zhao family was about to fire a "flare" to alert others, Lin Shan had no time to stop him. Suddenly, a hand appeared at the side and slapped the guest on the head, cracking it into pieces!
Lin Shan was stunned again. The person who made the move was none other than the top-notch master from the Zhao family next to him!
"Hmph! Idiot!
This guy has been sitting upright on the ground since we came in, and he has not moved until now. This means that he has already set up a trap to kill more family masters! You are the only one with a stupid head who is still not smart enough!"
After saying this, the top-notch master raised his head confidently and gave Lin Shan a sinister smile.
"I admit that you are a talented person with ruthless means at a young age! But we in the Zhao family are full of experts. Unless you keep the trap and hide here, you will come down to accompany me sooner or later!"
This top-notch expert had figured out everything in his mind, and felt that he had seen through Lin Shan's plot. At the same time, he grabbed the whistle arrow from the guest's arms and broke it with a "click"!
Lin Shan was not given any chance to conduct a fishing expedition.
Then, as if he knew that he could not escape without a leg and would bleed to death sooner or later, he simply committed suicide, severing his heart meridians.
……
Lin Shan sat on the steps and stared blankly.
"Did I know they were coming? And set a trap? And am I planning to continue fishing and defrauding people?"
He felt that his thoughts were a bit out of sync. What was the train of thought of this top-notch master of the Zhao family?
But thinking of what the guest from the Zhao family had said just now, that they had an accomplice nearby, his heart suddenly sank. Now that he had no spiritual power, staying here would be like a lamb to be slaughtered.
But I don't know where their accomplices are hiding. If I escape now, wouldn't I be walking into a trap if I encounter them?
If I stay here and meditate to recover my spiritual power, with the corpses in the yard as a deterrent, even if the Zhao family comes, they won't be able to figure out my background for a while, and they may not dare to act rashly.
Thinking of this, Lin Shan felt relieved. Fortunately, the Zhao family's top master had killed the guest official in time, buying him precious time.
……
About half an hour later, Lin Shan heard footsteps outside the yard again, this time there were four people.
"Why is there still no news about my second brother? Is there anything wrong with him?"
"Impossible! Second brother is a top-notch expert. There are only a few people in the entire Zangke City who can do anything to him!"
"But I just heard two screams from a distance, could it be..."
"It must have been that kid! You know that my second brother is extremely cruel."
"Well, they are probably dividing the spoils now, otherwise there wouldn't be any news for so long."
"You'll find out once you go in and take a look."
……
"Click, click, click."
Eight hands were placed on the wall. Lin Shan's eyelids twitched and he felt bitter in his heart.
"How hateful! If I were given more time to practice, how could a cultivator like me end up in such an embarrassing situation!" Then, four pairs of eyes appeared at the wall, looking furtively into the yard.
(⊙x⊙)×4
Lin Shan's back was gradually wet with sweat, but he remained motionless, pretending not to see it.
When four pairs of eyes saw the two bodies in the yard, they were all frightened and used their eyes to signal each other what to do.
Lin Shan could roughly sense them with his spiritual sense and found that they were lying on the wall, winking at each other, as if they were secretly discussing some countermeasures. He resisted the urge to escape and tried hard to absorb the surrounding spiritual energy.
"It's almost there. It will soon be able to recover one third of its capacity."
The four people on the wall just watched. Lin Shan in the yard was at ease, sitting on the steps under the moonlight, and even had the leisure time to practice.
He was dressed in spotless white clothes without a single drop of blood, and in a trance he looked ethereal and otherworldly, like a fairy who was about to ascend to heaven.
The four of them couldn't help but start to wonder, what methods did this young man use to kill the Zhao family's top master without any effort? At the same time, they were secretly beating their drums in their hearts, and no one dared to go down first.
Lin Shan felt his spiritual energy in the yard gradually recovering, and a smile appeared unconsciously on the corners of his mouth.
"Sigh~"
The four people on the wall happened to see it, and they all felt that the young man in white seemed to be mocking them, deliberately provoking them to lure them in, and then setting a trap to capture them all, so they dared not act rashly.
……
Time just passes by bit by bit.
Finally, the four people on the wall searched for a long time but couldn't find the location of the trap mechanism, so they decided to go back and report to the head of the family before making any plans. After all, there is only one life, and no one dares to gamble.
The eight hands on the wall disappeared. Listening to the footsteps going away, Lin Shan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, those people did not have any long-range hidden weapons, otherwise I would probably have become the most miserable cultivator who died in history.
……
By the fourth watch, Lin Shan, who had been practicing for a long time, finally recovered one third of his spiritual power.
With the backup of the Wind Blade Technique, he felt a lot more relieved, but he didn't know what was happening outside, so he could only sit upright and recover.
……
At five o'clock in the morning, about seven-tenths of his spiritual power was recovered.
……
At noon, it finally returned to its original state!
With three wind blade techniques in hand, Lin Shan finally felt a little safer.
By this time, the sky was already bright and diligent vendors had already started setting up stalls on the street.
Lin Shan stood in the yard, reviewing last night's experience. The Zhao family had lost a top-notch master, and they would probably never let it go!
Although he possesses the Wind Blade Technique, he does not have much spiritual power and can only use it three times in total.
Going to the Zhao family to ask for an explanation directly is definitely not feasible for the time being. After all, two fists are no match for four hands, and after three attacks, you will be at the mercy of others.
But if I stay here, I'm afraid they will keep coming and harassing me, and I won't be able to practice in peace.
Lin Shan decided to change to another place to practice first.
After all, the progress of cultivating immortals is visible to the naked eye. When one has enough spiritual power, one can release the wind blade technique at will, and then one can move forward and backward freely.
Then we will attack the Zhao family and let them know what a true immortal cultivator is!
He packed his luggage quickly and simply. There wasn't much on him, only one thousand taels of silver, three Qi training techniques, the jade pendant given by Lei Zhenzi, and some clothes.
As for the golden bell, although it had lost its ancient charm, it was still an antique worth three thousand taels of gold. However, it would make too much noise if he carried it outside. This was equivalent to exposing himself to the Zhao family's spies.
When Lin Shan thought about that scene, he felt like he was seeking death.
"Leave it here for now, and think of it as the Zhao family keeping it for me. Later, you must return it to me with interest!"
……
Lin Shan quietly slipped out of his yard and used his spiritual sense to get rid of the stalkers and pursuers.
She went out and bought a bamboo hat and veil to cover her face, changed into a coarse linen dress, and found a real estate agent to rent a small yard.
As for Nightingale, Lin Shan did not go back. After all, there were also members of the Zhao family who worked as killers in Nightingale. Wouldn't it be a trap for him to go back?
After settling down, Lin Shan made up his mind this time.
Practice for half a year first! Even if the sky falls, it can't stop me!
As for the Zhao family, a sneer appeared on Lin Shan's lips. They dared to offend the immortal cultivators. Just wait and see!
