Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 996 Facing a Sect Alone

"Try not to take any action. This matter is too weird. We need to investigate it carefully." Lin Zejie replied in a low voice.

Lin Zejie was speechless. Could it be that something went wrong in his practice and he was controlled by his inner demon?

"Lin Zejie, what else do you have to argue about now? Hand over the 'Soul-Calming Pearl', otherwise we will have to use tough measures." The leader of the Guisha Sect roared, looking like he could attack at any time.

Lin Zejie had a huge headache. He had never seen that damn "Soul-Calming Pearl" before, so how could he possibly take it out?

The other party had obviously identified him. The destruction of the Ghost Demon Sect by the Divine Vine was solid evidence, leaving him speechless.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Zejie stepped forward and said loudly: "Master of the Ghost Demon Sect, I don't know what happened exactly. I am also deeply saddened by the destruction of the Ghost Demon Sect. I guarantee on the reputation of the Lin family that this matter has nothing to do with me, but I will definitely get to the bottom of it.

If the Ghost Demon Sect trusts me, please go back first. I will do my best to investigate this matter. Once I find out who is behind this, I will give the Ghost Demon Sect an explanation, and the so-called "Soul-Calming Orb" will be returned intact."

The leader of the Guisha Sect and the great elder looked at each other. Of course, he could not be satisfied with Lin Zejie's answer. In his opinion, the murderer was Lin Zejie, and these excuses were completely evasions.

"Master, the Lin family has no sincerity at all. Negotiation is useless. Let's fight. We have the support of the Luo family and tens of thousands of disciples. We are fully capable of fighting the Lin family.

As long as we go to war with the Lin family, the other vassal forces will also turn against us. When the Lin family is attacked by the crowd, they will naturally return the Soul-Suppressing Pearl when they suffer losses." The fourth elder transmitted the message.

The leader of the Ghost Demon Sect nodded slowly, his expression gradually regained its composure, he had made up his mind, and said sarcastically:

“Oh, I never thought that the great genius Lin Zejie is such a coward. Since the Lin family has this attitude, there is no need for us to continue the discussion. All the cultivators of the Ghost Demon Sect, listen to my order and attack!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the leader of the Ghost Demon Sect rushed out first, transformed into a black shadow and leaped into the air, forming seals with both hands in an instant.

"Ghost Magic Ten Thousand Arrows!"

The powerful holy power of the Ghost Demon Sect's leader surged and turned into sharp black arrows, covering the sky and shooting downwards.

This is the tragedy of the kindness of those in power. The Lin family does not have as strong a control over their subordinates as other royal families. For example, if they issue prohibitions, they are very likely to rebel.

"Brother, don't think about peace talks at this time, let's fight first." Lin Tu growled and rushed out first.

"Mori Lang Wan Gun!"

He swung out countless stick shadows, which flew towards the sky with great momentum, and instantly collided with the black arrows that covered the sky and the sun.

During the explosion, the mutually destructive arrows and stick shadows transformed into surging holy power.

However, due to the difference in cultivation level, Lin Tu was no match for them, and countless black arrows continued to fall on the Lin family.

"Sacred Skill, Wood Covering the Sky!"

At this moment, Lin Zejie clasped his hands together, and the ground shook violently. Countless thick vines rushed out in an instant, intertwined in the air while flying, and entangled with each other to form a wooden canopy that protected all the members of the Lin family.

The black arrow fell on the wooden vine, and a sound like rain hitting banana leaves was heard, extremely dense, but it could not break through the interception of the wooden vine.

"Little brother, come back." Lin Zejie stretched out his hand and pulled Lin Tu back through the air.

Lin Tu said unwillingly: "Brother, others have already taken action, should we just keep silent?"

A group of Lin family saints also spoke up, "That's right, Young Clan Leader, no matter what happened, since the Ghost Demon Sect dared to come to our Lin family's territory to attack, we cannot show weakness. We should teach them a lesson and let them know that the royal family is inviolable."

Lin Zejie's expression became more and more serious. He glanced at them and said coldly, "Shut up, everyone. Teach them a lesson? What lesson can you teach them? The Luo family's strong men are watching them from within the clan."

Lin Tu whispered unconvincedly: "We also have an emperor-level friend. As long as we fight, support will arrive soon."

Lin Zejie snorted, "Before the reinforcements arrive, who will be held responsible if our tribe members suffer heavy casualties? Listen to my orders, everyone retreat. Since the other party is here to find me, I will take full responsibility. You retreat to the back and don't take action."

"Young patriarch!"

"Big brother!"

The elders of the Lin family and disciples such as Lin Tu shouted at the same time. From what Lin Zejie said, it seemed that he wanted to face the Guisha Sect alone. How could they agree to such a thing?

"This is an order!"

Lin Zejie suddenly exuded a fascinating aura.

The people around him subconsciously took a step back. They knew how strong the young patriarch was, but at this moment, the pure and huge pressure was as deep as the starry sky! Is this really the power that a great saint can possess?
Lin Tu and other disciples were shocked. They looked at the elders and had to retreat quickly with the Lin family members.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the vine and wood barrier in the sky was broken, and the leader and the great elder of the Ghost Demon Sect broke through the vine and wood barrier in the forest and ze world.

After breaking through the barrier, the leader and the chief elder of the Guisha Sect were both stunned, because they saw that Lin Zejie was the only one left in front of them, and the other members of the Lin family had fled far away.

Before they could understand what was going on, a giant vine rose up under Lin Zejie's feet, lifted him up high, and looked down at all the Ghost Demon Sect warriors.

Lin Zejie said with a serious expression: "Master of the Ghost Demon Sect, I will say it again, this matter has nothing to do with me, but I will investigate it in detail. If you retreat now, I can pretend that this matter never happened."

All the high-level officials of Guisha Sect were stunned, and then burst into mocking laughter.

At this time, in the Pang family land, Ye Xuan strolled leisurely, with the soul in his eyes spinning "Heaven Devouring!"
