Chapter 259 Bounty of 100 Million

After disposing of Sima Ling's body, Lin Zhao opened Sima Ling's Heavenly Mirror and a handbook inside the ring, discovering that it contained records of some major events recorded by Sima Ling.

In other words, a diary.

After quickly flipping through a few pages, Lin Zhao gained a better understanding of Sima Ling. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Master, the Second Elder took him in because he knew that the Second Elder had fallen into demonic possession and that the Second Elder had connections with the Demon Realm of the Ancestral Phoenix Continent."

The dark side of each plane forms a demon realm. Just as the Heavenly Phoenix Continent and the Ancestral Phoenix Continent are interconnected, the demon realms of each plane are also interconnected. Lin Zhao was not surprised to see the message of his communication with people in the demon realm on the Heavenly Mirror in Sima Ridge.

“These two, master and disciple, are scheming against each other.” Lin Zhao closed Sima Ling’s diary and said, “According to Sima Ling’s diary, the Second Elder’s descent into demonic possession was a scheme by the evil thoughts of another world. When the time came, the evil thoughts of another world brought their accomplices with Sima Ling to make it easier for Sima Ling to seize the luck and talent of others here.”

With each link connected to the next, it's hard to imagine how many foreshadowings otherworldly evil thoughts have been planted in various planes in the many years since the fall of the Creator God.

"These bandits from another world seem to have done more than just a resurgence over the years."

Lin Zhao's eyes flickered, and he said, "I have already asked Han Chen to replace Sima Ling's life tablet in the Phoenix Medicine Sect. Suppress the news of his death for now, and this identity will be mine."

Grandma Honghu asked, "What are you planning to do?"

"An eye for an eye." Lin Zhao kept rummaging through Sima Ling's belongings and actually found some things: "I have already asked Fan Chen Ziyue to send me Sima Ling's identity information."

Lin Zhao quickly tidied up the place and then breathed a sigh of relief: "In short, he has to be dead, but he can't die within his network of connections. I still need to use his abilities to get things done."

As he spoke, Lin Zhao's eyes flickered: "Master, do you think we can spy on the evil thoughts of another world?"

When the enemy is in the dark while we are in the light, we are always on the defensive.

Grandma Honghu was silent for a moment, then said, "Even the Creator God doesn't know where these strange things come from or what their ultimate goal is. The Creator God has your thoughts too, but when something fundamental is touched, they automatically perish, as if they are controlled by some kind of law."

That means it's not possible.

Lin Zhao sighed and looked at the two porcelain bottles in his hand. "Well, at least we got these two things, so it wasn't a complete waste."

……

In the central continent of the Ancestral Phoenix Continent, in the capital city of the Ancestral Phoenix, lies the Marquis of Dingguo's residence.

Wearing a bright red dress, Ji Wantang watched as the gray aura at her fingertips completely vanished, and her complexion gradually regained its rosy hue.

Her maid asked, "Has the master recovered his spirit?"

Ji Wantang twisted her neck, which was stiff from lying in bed for too long, and nodded: "The luck and other things plundered by these otherworldly evil thoughts are transformed into pure world source power by them, which is of great benefit to cultivators."

The maid praised, "Your Excellency is truly wise, able to detect who harbors evil thoughts from another world."

Ji Wantang's expression was somber, seemingly oblivious to the maid's praise. As she felt her soul rapidly recovering, she asked, "Has the Blue Duckling's inheritance been taken away?"

The maid nodded with a sigh: "That blue gyrfalcon is truly..."

Ji Wantang gestured for her to stop talking: "The winner takes all, the loser is the one who loses. When has Ji Wantang ever been unable to accept defeat?"

The maid thought to herself, "But you have never failed."

This is the first time Ji Wantang has faced defeat in the Blue Duckling Legacy.

She had a vague idea of ​​who had taken the inheritance.

That innate sense of crisis made Ji Wantang's blood feel like it was about to boil: "Lin Zhao..."

She stood up, pushed open the door, and the young man guarding the door immediately kowtowed to her: "My Lordship."

Ji Wantang said, "Send out all the Nascent Soul stage experts in the manor and deliver this message to the Bright Hall. Offer a reward in the Ancestral Phoenix Continent for a woman named Lin Zhao. As for other information about this woman, come to my manor to pick up her portrait later. Under the jurisdiction of the Marquis of Dingguo's manor, any believers of the Bright Hall who encounter this person should bring her to the Marquis of Dingguo's manor. A reward of one hundred million high-grade spirit stones will be offered."

She shifted her body and said to the young man, "In addition, I've been telling people for the past two years that I've been recuperating from an injury."

The young man noticed the subtle fluctuations in Ji Wantang's aura and was overjoyed: "Could it be that the Marquis is about to break through?"

This breakthrough marks the Nascent Soul stage!

A Nascent Soul cultivator under twenty?! What terrifying talent!
Ji Wantang did not answer that question. A crimson flame flickered in her hand. She extinguished the flame and said, "However, some failures are enough. I will not give you a second chance to defeat me." Whether in the Ancestral Phoenix Continent or the Heavenly Phoenix Continent, her family's power and talent were superior to Lin Zhao's.

She was able to reduce Lin Zhao to the status of a useless phoenix in the Heavenly Phoenix Continent back then, and she can do the same now.

……

In the Northwest Continent, behind the Phoenix Medicine Sect, Lin Zhao had just finished resolving the matter at Sima Ridge when she sensed that her contract was sending out dangerous signals. This was clearly not a danger to her personally.

"Golden Sprout?" Lin Zhao put everything aside and headed towards the place where the contract sensed him without hesitation.

……

At the foot of Phoenix Medicine Sect Mountain, Jin Ya was imprisoned in a cage made of ten-thousand-year-old spiritual wood, constantly banging on the wooden lock: "You actually dared to arrest me, believe me or not I will complain to Elder Qingling Peak?"

She didn't know what evil spirits she had encountered today. She had only gone out to play with Fan Chen and Zi Yue for a while, and when she came back, she was captured by these late-stage Fusion cultivators.

"Junior Sister Lin, stop struggling. Even if you pretend to be Zhao Ling'er now, there are only a handful of people with your face in the entire plane."

Jin Ya was currently using Lin Zhao's face, and she couldn't switch her thoughts quickly. She angrily said, "What I call you is none of your business! I'm an inner disciple of Qingling Peak now. If you dare to do anything to me, you're dead!"

Several late-stage Fusion Realm cultivators completely ignored her, their excitement rising as they thought of the bounty of one hundred million high-grade spirit stones on the Tongjing Mirror that day.

Jin Ya let out a strange cry of anger, "You asked for this, grandma..."

A pink sword light tore through the sky and blasted the group apart.

Then, Gold Tooth saw a girl wearing a pink dress.

The girl walked up to her, pulled out a hairpin from her hair, and unlocked the lock in a few moments. She said, "How did you offend Ji Wantang? So your name is Lin Zhao. You're wanted by the authorities, how did you manage to run away? If I hadn't secretly run away without my father's knowledge, you would have been in big trouble."

As she spoke, she released the golden sprout: "Wait, how did your cultivation level drop to the Fusion stage?"

Before Jin Ya could even utter a single word, she was stunned by the other person's barrage of words.

Of course she knew who Ji Wantang was, and now she knew what had happened from what the other party said. She blankly changed back to her original appearance.

The girl who saved her froze.

"you……"

Jin Ya shook her fluffy blonde hair: "I'm not Lin Zhao!"

And Lin Zhao is really something, coming here without hiding it from Ji Wantang, and now look what's happened! She's been set on by Ji Wantang!
Although Yunfei saved the wrong person, she didn't mind too much because Jinya was quite cute: "Then why did you pretend to look like her?"

As soon as the words left their mouths, the two of them simultaneously sensed an extremely terrifying aura rushing towards them, about to reach them in just a few breaths.

"Haha, one hundred million high-grade spirit stones! I'm rich now!"

Upon recognizing the voice, Yunfei cursed under her breath. A flash of light appeared on the halo around her wrist, and she and Jinya vanished from the spot.

When the messenger arrived, only his disciples remained. He looked around and, finding no one there, his face darkened: "What happened? Where is everyone?!"

The newcomer was none other than Ming Zhu, the second-in-command of Qingyun Peak, the junior brother of the Second Elder, and Yun Fei's master on Qingyun Peak.

He owed a lot of money in the Central Continent due to some issues, and even after arriving in the Northwest Continent, he still had a lot left to pay off.

If it weren't for the Phoenix Medicine Sect's influence, his creditors would have devoured him.

He accepted Yunfei mainly because Yunfei's father gave him a lot of money.

When he refreshed the bounty list today, he remembered Jin Ya, who was impersonating Lin Zhao, during the sect entrance competition, so he decisively ordered his disciples to take action.

I never expected that even though the prize was practically in my mouth, something unexpected would happen at the last minute.
