Chapter 104 Tian Lin appoints generals and drags people into the water
Shang Yu laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "The old man is always good at disguising himself, always playing second fiddle. The fact that you were able to stay at Baihua Peak and even become its head disciple means you are playing second fiddle to him, right?"
"What do you mean, brother?"
Tian Lin frowned and said, "Master is like a wandering crane, he doesn't want to get involved in the internal fighting of Yaoyue Sect, so he left;
As for the fact that I was able to go to Baihua Peak and seek shelter from Elder Xiao, it was also because I took the initiative to ask for it. The old master took into account the friendship between master and disciple, so he took pity on me and pointed out a clear path for me.
How come when it comes to Senior Brother, it becomes a conspiracy of the Master?"
Shang Yu snorted coldly, looked at Tian Lin coldly and said:
"The old guy picked up the second and third stewards, two bastards, and raised them in Lianshui Peak. He deceived the headmaster for decades, and deceived me for nearly ten years. He deliberately concealed his tracks. If he said he had no ulterior motives, would you believe him, Junior Brother?"
Tian Lin didn't believe it either. He even began to waver in his heart, thinking that his trip to Baihua Peak was just a casual move by Elder Liu.
But at this moment, how could he admit it?
"Brother Shang, you worry too much. Master has been frustrated for many years because he has not been able to form a pill. I don't know what misunderstandings the headmaster and you have about him, and I don't care what grudges there are between you.
Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with me. I don't know where the master has gone, so you don't have to waste your time on me."
Tian Lin turned around and was about to leave, but Shang Yu shouted from behind him, "Junior brother, don't you want the antidote formula for the Heartache Gu?"
Tian Lin paused, turned around and looked at Shang Yu with a sneer:
"Brother, you have asked me this question so many times. I am tired of hearing it."
Shang Yu said: "If you want the antidote formula for the Heartache Gu, you must capture Elder Liu. Because the antidote formula is with Elder Liu."
Tian Lin frowned, looked at Shang Yu coldly and said:
"Brother Shang said earlier that the antidote formula is with your father. Now, you say that the antidote formula is with Elder Liu. I'm used to your lies, and it's hard for me to believe it."
Shang Yu was silent. He opened his mouth hesitantly and finally sighed:
"Elder Liu is not a good person. Do you still remember the big black dog in the mine?"
Tian Lin seemed to hear the bell on the big black dog's neck. Then he heard Shang Yu say, "Do you remember the bell on my sister's neck?"
Tian Lin recalled the crisp sound of the tassel on Shisan Niang's neck making when she walked.
The sounds of the big black dog and Ying Luo's bells intertwined in Tian Lin's mind, and the sounds of each seemed to converge into one, becoming uniform.
"Those two bells were both hung by Elder Liu - one bell was hung on the dog, and the other bell was hung on my sister."
Shang Yu turned and looked at Tian Lin: "You said, there is such a 'free and easy person', such a good person?"
"Why did he hang that bell?"
Tian Lin frowned, he found this matter hard to understand.
"What else could it be for? Meat eaters are satisfying their own selfish desires. Such perverted people often do such perverted things."
Shang Yu said, "Also, do you think that all those corpses in the mine were really prepared for Shang Quan? Is it that Shang Quan is colluding with the Blood Cult, or is he taking the blame for Elder Liu?"
"Guess again, why did the Sect Leader want to do that to Liu——"
"enough!"
Tian Lin looked at Shang Yu who looked like he was going crazy and said, "Brother Shang, you should go back and have a good sleep."
Tian Lin felt that Shang Yu had many secrets in his heart, and these secrets brought Shang Yu too much pressure.
He felt that Shangyi could no longer hold back—
But Shang Yu dared to tell him these secrets, but he didn't dare to listen.
Xing Shanping was against Xing Tongtian and was imprisoned.
Xing Tongtian didn't even let his own son go. If I got caught getting involved in his affairs, how would I survive?
"Elder Feng asked me to go to Wenxin Sect to do some work, so I can't stay here any longer. Please forgive me, Senior Brother Shang."
Tian Lin no longer paid attention to Shang Yu. He used the Wind Walking Technique and turned around to leave the forest.
When he returned to Baihua Peak, the outer disciples were no longer in the room.
Tian Lin poured himself a cup of tea. When he was drinking the tea, Xiao Hong knocked on the door outside.
"Senior sister, what is this?"
Tian Lin looked at Xiao Hong in confusion, and saw that Xiao Hong was holding a wooden boat and a letter in her hands.
"My grandfather asked me to give these two things to you."
She placed the letter and the thumb-sized wooden boat on Tian Lin's desk, and took out a small bag and placed it on the desk:
"Inside are the spirit stones that drive the flying boat, and three pieces of top-grade talisman paper. The spirit stones are fine, but these three pieces of top-grade talisman paper were given to you by my grandfather to save your life."
Since it was a matter of life and death, Tian Lin did not act pretentiously.
He first put the ten spirit stones in his pocket into his storage bag, and then took out the three talisman papers.
Tian Lin recognized all three talismans; one was a thunder talisman, one was a flame talisman, and the other was an ice talisman.
But Tian Lin had only used low-grade thunder talismans and low-grade flame and ice talismans.
"Each of these three pieces of talisman paper is equivalent to a full-strength attack from a late-stage foundation-building expert, so they are extremely precious."
Tian Lin was overjoyed when he heard this. He put the three pieces of talisman paper into his storage bag and bowed to Xiao Hong, saying:
"Thank you, Senior Sister. Please also thank the Peak Master for me."
Xiao Hong smiled bitterly and said, "In theory, I should be the one to handle the affairs of Baihua Peak. But——"
Tian Lin knew that although Elder Xiao loved his disciple, his disciple's safety was by no means as important as his granddaughter's life.
Therefore, even if Xiao Hong wanted to go, Elder Xiao would definitely not allow her to go.
Therefore, he said, "Senior Sister Xiao, what you said is wrong. Now that I am the head disciple, I should be in charge of the affairs of Baihua Peak. There is no reason for me to enjoy the rights of the head disciple but refuse to fulfill the obligations of the head disciple."
After hearing this, Xiao Hong couldn't help but look at Tian Lin in surprise.
She had a good impression of Tian Lin, but that was only because Tian Lin had saved her life.
Actually, she didn't think highly of Tian Lin's character. Since Tian Lin became the head disciple, he had been staying in the Asking Dao Mountain. It can be said that he only occupied the position of the head disciple of Baihua Peak, but never contributed even a little to Baihua Peak.
It is no wonder that the white-clothed disciples of Baihua Peak are not convinced by Tian Lin.
Moreover, after spending some time together, he discovered that Tian Lin was a lonely and timid person.
The loneliness among them is that Tian Lin likes to be alone and seems to be very resistant to getting along with fellow apprentices.
It seems that spending time with his fellow disciples would delay his climbing up Mount Tao.
As for being timid, that goes without saying.
"I misunderstood you before, Senior Sister apologizes to you."
Xiao Hong said happily:
"When Junior Sister Han comes back, we must hold a grand banquet. First, to sweep away the bad luck that has come to Yaoyue Sect recently, second, to entertain Junior Sister Han, and third, to celebrate Junior Brother Tian's promotion to the position of the head disciple."
Tian Lin got a headache when he heard that she was planning a grand banquet.
He was impatient to socialize with those white-robed disciples. He would rather spend that time drinking two more bottles of spiritual liquid on the Asking Mountain.
But it was not a good idea to spoil Xiao Hong's mood at this time, so she could only say, "Okay, then please wait for good news from me, Senior Sister."
After saying this, Tian Lin escorted Xiao Hong out of the house.
At this time, all the outer disciples of Baihua Peak knew that Tian Lin had returned, and several of them were standing at the door looking at Tian Lin.
Some people had pity in their eyes, while others gloated.
Tian Lin swept his eyes over the five people, first looking at the 'Junior Brother Jiang' and the other 'Junior Brother Zhao' who had a sarcastic look on his face.
Tian Lin's face turned serious and he asked, "Junior Brother Jiang, where is Junior Brother Zhao?"
Junior Brother Jiang and Senior Brother Zhao were stunned for a moment, then looked at Tian Lin coldly.
Tian Lin frowned when he saw this and asked, "Why, I haven't left Yaoyue Sect yet, and you two won't listen to me, the head of the sect?"
Senior Brother Zhao stepped forward. He was at the twelfth level of Qi Refining and was not afraid of Tian Lin at all, so he said coldly:
"I'm afraid that once you go to the Heart-Searching Sect, you'll never come back. Why do you still want to show off your power as the head of the sect?"
Junior Brother Jiang also laughed:
"Yes, you just got the position of the head disciple by luck. Because you are about to die, we call you the head disciple. Don't really think of yourself as a senior brother."
Tian Lin slapped the storage bag, and Taibai immediately flew out of the storage bag.
He grabbed Taibai and thrust him into the mud in front of him:
"As long as I am alive, I will be your Senior Brother in Charge. I want to ask you, do you listen to my orders?"
Junior Brother Jiang and Senior Brother Zhao looked at each other and decided to fight Tian Lin to the end for the sake of face.
However, a few white-robed disciples nearby tugged at their sleeves and said:
"Forget it. He's leaving early tomorrow morning. Since he's going out to die, we shouldn't embarrass him, so let's just go along with his wishes."
Senior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Jiang were obviously afraid of making things worse.
After all, Tian Lin is nominally the head disciple of the peak, and they, the outer disciples of Baihua Peak, must obey Tian Lin's orders.
If the matter was brought to the attention of Elder Xiao, Tian Lin would be in the right, but they would probably be the ones to suffer.
"Okay, Senior Brother Zhangfeng, what do you want me to do?"
Senior Brother Zhao asked, gritting his back teeth.
Seeing this, Tian Lin took out the badge of the peak disciple from his waist and imitated Xing Shanping and said:
"Tian Lin, the head disciple of Baihua Peak, orders you to go back and pack your bags and go with me to Wenxin Sect to keep the appointment tomorrow!"
As soon as these words came out, Senior Brother Zhao's face turned pale and he could not help but angrily asked, "You want to take us with you to die?"
Tian Lin didn't care what Senior Brother Zhao thought. He put away his badge, picked up the sword on the ground, and said coldly:
"I will be waiting for you here tomorrow morning. If anyone dares to escape, don't blame me for punishing him according to the rules of Baihua Peak."
"I fear you?"
After Senior Brother Zhao finished speaking, he turned and left.
Tian Lin saw that Junior Brother Jiang also followed Senior Brother Zhao and left, and then said to the other disciples who were looking at each other in bewilderment:
"I will definitely take two of my fellow apprentice brothers with me when I go to Wenxin Sect this time. If Brother Zhao and Brother Jiang are unwilling to go, I will have to find two more people who are not afraid of death from among you."
The outer disciples were all scared. Facing Tian Lin's sweeping gaze, they patted their chests and promised:
"Don't worry, Senior Brother Zhangfeng, we will persuade Senior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Jiang to obey Senior Brother Zhangfeng's orders."
Tian Lin sighed and said, "Actually, I also want his two junior brothers to stay in Yaoyue Sect to prepare for the upcoming life and death competition. But -
But Junior Sister Han's life is in danger now. How can we disregard Junior Sister Han's life just for the position of an outer disciple?"
Several white-robed disciples were moved.
They were not stupid and they immediately understood one thing from Tian Lin's words.
Once Tian Lin, Senior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Jiang leave, three vacancies for the sect's outer disciples will be left.
You should know that in the competition a few days later, the sect only has reserved fifty places for outer disciples.
Originally, Yaoyue Sect had more than sixty outer disciples, which was far more than the quota of fifty.
Therefore, in a big competition, no one dares to say that he can definitely keep the status of an outer disciple.
After all, some of those menial disciples took too many blood pills, and it would have been fine for them, but many of the outer disciples made rapid progress after taking blood pills.
Therefore, the competition for the 50 outer disciples was very intense. The white-clothed disciples who did not eat blood pills were already at a disadvantage.
But once Tian Lin and his two companions left, there would be three fewer competitors. With this calculation, the chances of winning were much better.
"Don't worry, Senior Brother, since you have named them, they have to go whether they want to or not!"
A disciple in white had a fierce look on his face and stared at the rooms of Senior Brother Zhao and Junior Brother Jiang.
Tian Lin said no more. He smiled, bowed to the white-robed disciples, and turned back to the house.
