Chapter 582 Reunion
Lin Yu lowered his head, looked at the high-ranking person who had made him and his brother wish they were dead back then, put down the scroll in his hand, and nodded.
"it's me."
After more than a decade of wandering and endurance, he finally felt that his life had meaning when he heard that the master of Panlong Pagoda had changed to Lin Yi and that the Great Qin Dynasty had a prince with the surname Lin.
His situation was much better than Lin Zhao had imagined. At least over the years, he had not only managed to protect himself, but had also investigated a great deal of information.
Of course, the fact that Lin Yi was able to borrow so much money from the nearby dynasty without being beaten to death was also because he helped pay off part of it.
Within his capabilities, he did his best to protect himself and Lin Yi without alerting the person who wanted to obtain his soul.
Now is the time. The other side can neither do anything to him nor to Lin Zhao. It is time for him to launch a full-scale counterattack.
Upon hearing the sound of the Qing Emperor's head slamming heavily to the ground, Lin Yu lowered his thick, curved eyelashes, concealing the sinister glint in his eyes.
"First."
Lin Yu slightly opened his eyes, looked at the young man in black robes standing against the light at the doorway, and revealed a faint smile.
As if seeing an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, Lin Yu stood up and looked at the other person. At this moment, it was hard to tell whether he was Lin Yu, the eldest young master of the Lin family, or the soul of the Ancestral Dragon.
He stepped into the shadow cast by the other person standing backlit, letting the bloody storm brought by the other person engulf him, and slightly opened his hands, a gesture of welcoming an old friend.
"It's been a long time, Zuoyuan."
It's not his style to let Lin Zhao handle everything.
Some things started because of him, and they should end with him.
The handsome, somewhat wicked young man in the black robe stood on the threshold, scrutinizing the youth who had already fallen into his shadow, and applauded with admiration.
"You are just as perfect as I imagined, just like your delicious sister."
The youth in the shadows' perfect, gentle smile stiffened slightly, and the mask that had always covered his face cracked.
"If your sense of accomplishment comes from provoking me, then you have succeeded in what you failed to do before."
The next instant, the two figures simultaneously shot towards each other like arrows released from a bow.
……
Lin Zhao and You Shen traveled for three days before arriving at the vicinity of the Qing Dynasty. After entering, they learned that the Qing Dynasty's teleportation array was basically unusable. Lin Zhao's expression did not change, but she pinched her brow. You Shen silently moved a little further away from her.
After calming down and calculating, Lin Zhao realized that at her and You Shen's travel speed, it would only take another five or six days to arrive. She remained silent for a long time afterward.
"How about we ask around to see if there are any large cities nearby? Besides the official teleportation arrays, the imperial court should also have private ones," You Shen suggested tentatively.
Upon hearing You Shen's words, the cultivator next to him, who had also missed the teleportation array, glanced at him and said, "Fellow Daoist, you and your partner aren't from the Qing Dynasty, are you? Other dynasties are fine, but the Qing Dynasty stopped using private teleportation arrays long ago after it was downgraded. Anyone who dares to open a private teleportation array in the Qing Dynasty is violating the laws of the Qing Dynasty."
What was said in jest was taken seriously by the listener. When Lin Zhao heard the words "violate the laws of the Qing Dynasty," she had an idea.
The two found the black market in the territory of the Qing Dynasty and successfully boarded the teleportation array.
"So there really are people breaking the law here," You Shen remarked, sitting on the spirit boat.
“There will always be cultivators who need to travel, and there will always be people who need to make money. If the Qing Dynasty cannot use the teleportation array due to spatial turbulence caused by objective reasons, then we really will have to travel on our own. But if it is a problem within the royal family, even if the government does not open the teleportation array, someone will definitely open it.”
You Shen gave her a thumbs up.
The two traveled all the way to Shengjing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, only to find it crowded with people on all sides, all trying to leave the capital.
"What happened?" Lin Zhao got off the spirit boat and noticed the panic on the faces of these people, feeling somewhat puzzled.
When she stepped out of the teleportation array's area and saw the desolate streets and alleys of Shengjing, she was speechless with shock. Was this still the imperial city of a once mighty dynasty? How could it have become like this?
Not only were all the doors of the houses tightly shut, but the entire central area of the imperial city was also permeated with an indescribable stench of blood.
How many people must have died to make such a large area emit this kind of smell?
You Shen sensed something and said, "There are two factions inside the capital. Except for a few, most of the mansions around the capital have been killed."
Lin Zhao took a deep breath.
It seems the Qing Dynasty has offended quite a few people over the years.
"Let's go take a look." Lin Zhao summoned the Holy Dragon Emperor's Spear, and You Shen followed behind her. Just as they arrived near the palace gate, they were stopped by a young man holding an umbrella. The young man had snow-white skin, fox-like eyes, and a long face. Behind him were groups of cultivators dressed in uniform.
"We are handling business at Tianyu Gate, please stop here."
Tianyu Gate? People who aren't from the Qing Dynasty or Young Master Duanye are still appearing here. Considering the bloodshed in the capital, Lin Zhao had a guess in his mind and concluded that they were friends, not enemies.
So she glanced at the man and said, "Please forgive me, brother, Lin Zhao has urgent business to attend to."
The young man's initially polite smile faltered noticeably upon hearing Lin Zhao's name: "Miss, your surname is Lin?"
He wasn't sure if this celestial-looking female cultivator was that person's sister, but their temperament and appearance didn't seem to be born of the same mother.
Moreover, according to that person's description, his sister should be the kind of person who is well-behaved, clever, cute, and gentle.
The female cultivator before him, wielding a purple-gold spear and exuding an aura so powerful that he could hardly contain himself, was completely unrelated to these descriptions.
"Yes, Shuangmu Forest, the 'Zhao' in 'Zhaozhao Riyue' (bright sun and moon)."
Her name is exactly the same as that of the younger sister.
It's better to be safe than sorry. If he offends that girl here, he won't even know how he died.
"Please come with me, young lady, no, miss."
The young man's sudden change to a respectful attitude made Lin Zhao and You Shen exchange a glance, and they both became more wary.
The stench of blood grew stronger ahead, and the sky gradually darkened. Lin Zhao stepped into the palace, letting the darkness and blood flow beneath his feet.
She stepped onto the steps of the Golden Palace, bathed in the slivers of moonlight.
……
When Lin Yu's spear pierced Zuo Yuan's chest, it was already close to dusk. The battle had lasted for two days and one night and was just coming to an end when the sound of fireworks signaling Tianyu Sect's victory could be heard outside.
After confirming that Zuo Yuan was powerless to resist, he vomited blood due to his severe injuries and managed a weak laugh.
"the second."
After carelessly tossing the broken spear on the ground, he knelt on one knee, exhausted, but managed to lift his head to look at the setting sun outside.
He remembered that it was also dusk when he was taken away from the Lin family. His father was standing at the door making arrangements, and his mother was coaxing the tiny Zhao Zhao to keep her from going out. Zhao Zhao kept calling for him.
Why did my brother go out? Where did he go? Why didn't he take Zhaozhao with him?
That day, as he watched the sunset bathed in moonlight, he was forcibly taken away by outsiders and left home.
Under the same moonlight as before, the girl in blue appeared in his field of vision, draped in moonlight, blending into the world he saw.
he knows.
Zhao Zhao came to pick him up and take him home.
The elder brother and Lin Zhao are not related by blood. Lin Zhao's real elder brother died during the blood sacrifice.
