Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 69: Hundred Swords Gate

Qin Yu quickly calmed himself down and pushed open the door.

Yin Qinghe, Zhao Mengli and the others also came out and looked up at the sky.

There, a green figure stood holding a sword. Although there was no flashing sword light, the majestic sword energy and strong will coming from afar were oppressing the entire Linxian City like a physical entity, and it was impossible to ignore it.

"Ninth level of foundation building! The cultivator in green clothes riding a sword, this is the cultivator from the Hundred Sword Sect!"

With just one glance, Yin Qinghe recognized the man's identity.

This is no longer a secret and is naturally easy to distinguish.

"Master's wife, is he the one who injured the elder of the Immortal Sect?"

The green-clothed man's aura was too strong, like a sharp sword that could tear everything apart. With Qin Yu's cultivation level, he didn't dare to look directly at him.

"Well, it looks like things are going to change in Linxian City."

Yin Qinghe looked solemn. The lingering worry in her heart finally turned into reality.

Since ancient times, every appearance of a ruin has been accompanied by disaster, especially for low-level monks like them, who might even become pawns manipulated at will by those high-ranking monks.

"Alas, the Immortal Sect is so powerful that even the City Lord can hardly resist it. This world is unpredictable."

"I hope nothing happens..."

In the city, sighs and worries are intertwined, and people are in a panic, expressing their helplessness about the current situation and their uneasiness about the future.

"The city lord... was defeated!"

Hearing this, Qin Yu and the others were shocked and looked in the direction.

really.

The loud noise just now was caused by the collapse of a large number of houses.

In the deep pit, a human figure could be vaguely seen.

Although the man was still alive, his breath was obviously unstable and his blood stained the ground red.

"Jia Li, this is the territory of Qingshanmen. How dare you openly plunder my city? Aren't you afraid of the wrath of Qingshanmen?"

Although the city lord was seriously injured and had difficulty walking, his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle. He looked at the indifferent figure floating in the sky. His voice was hoarse but full of unyielding tenacity.

“Oh, Qingshan Gate has long become a thing of the past. If the Ruins hadn’t appeared here, do you think this tiny place would be worthy of this elder’s attention?!”

High in the sky, Jia Li's voice was filled with contempt and complacency, echoing in the empty sky and earth, sounding particularly harsh.

"you!"

Upon hearing this, the city lord was filled with rage, but he also knew that there was a huge gap in strength between them and that he was powerless to save the situation.

With his level of cultivation, he could only withstand ten moves from Jia Li.

It can be imagined that Baijianmen came well prepared this time.

"Listen, people of Linxian City. If you are willing to surrender, this elder swears to be merciful and not to resort to violence. Everything in the city will follow the old rules and be safe and sound!"

Ignoring him no more, Jia Li's voice pierced through the noise, steady and powerful. His eyes swept across every corner of the city, as if he could see through everything.

As soon as these words were spoken, the hearts of the monks in the city relaxed quietly. For them, as long as their lives were not disrupted, it didn't matter to them who controlled the city.

Doesn't it matter who the spirit stones are handed over to?
However, the tranquility in the sky did not last long. A huge cloud boat slowly emerged in the distant sky. Countless figures jumped out of it. They were wearing uniform clothes and everyone carried a sword.

"He is a disciple of Baijian Sect."

Yin Qinghe frowned slightly, a trace of solemnity flashed across her expression, and she quickly pulled Qin Yu and the others into the house and closed the door.

"Master's wife..."

Before he finished speaking, there was already a surge of wind and thunder outside the door, accompanied by a series of rapid and heavy banging sounds - bang! bang! bang... like a hammer hitting the heart.

Bang!

Before Qin Yu could open the door, the door collapsed under the weight. Amidst the flying dust, three tall figures came in with swords in their hands. The tips of their swords were slightly lowered, revealing a cold light. Their eyes were as sharp as eagles, sweeping over everyone in the courtyard.

Zhao Mengli, Lin Qianqian and the others were all pale, their faces were as white as paper, their eyes were full of anxiety and fear, and they were obviously frightened by this sudden change. The leading man with a sword on his back spoke in a voice as cold as winter ice, without any emotion: "Three days later, you must select one person to follow us into the ruins. If you dare to disobey, you will bear the consequences!"

After saying this, he didn't say another word, and without giving Qin Yu and the others a chance to speak, he turned around and left, leaving behind only the astonishment and lingering dust in the room, and the unquestionable order, echoing in the air for a long time.

The noise outside did not stop.

Obviously, not only Qin Yu's family, but every family in the entire Linxian City has to send one person.

As for why this was the case, Qin Yu could probably guess a little.

There are countless unknown dangers hidden in the crevices of the ruins, especially the beasts roaming there, which feed on the flesh and blood of living beings and are greedy and cruel.

Baijianmen asked them to follow, but they didn't mean to take them in to look for opportunities.

Instead, they were sent to die, or to put it bluntly, to feed their lives to the beasts in the ruins, so as to pave the way for the disciples of Baijianmen.

Linxian City is not the territory of Baijianmen, and the life and death of the cultivators in the city has nothing to do with them.

The reason why each household sent one person was probably because they were worried that the crowd would get excited, and then if they promised them benefits, maybe some people would risk their lives for them.

"Master's Wife, what should I do..."

The atmosphere in the room was very depressing.

Yin Qinghe gently patted Zhao Mengli's jade-like back, her tightly furrowed brows never relaxed.

Lin Qianqian and Lin Shuishui sat on both sides of Qin Yu. Lin Qianqian kept looking at Qin Yu, while Lin Shuishui held Qin Yu's arm tightly in fear.

"Husband, I'll go."

Lin Qianqian suddenly spoke, her eyes full of determination and resolve.

She knew that following the people from Baijianmen to the Ruins would mean going to her death. But if Qin Yu or her sister Lin Shuishui were allowed to go, she would rather go by herself.

"What are you talking about!"

Qin Yu was still thinking about countermeasures. When he heard this and looked at Lin Qianqian's resolute eyes, his heart suddenly tightened.

Lin Qianqian's love value has reached the point of being forever until death.

Based on Qin Yu's understanding of her, she might even go there secretly on her own!
He has always felt sorry for Lin Qianqian.

Although he is young, he is very sensible and always thinks about the people around him.

"Don't do anything stupid!"

Qin Yu's face turned serious and he scolded directly.

Although Lin Qianqian had broken through to the first level of Qi Refining a few days ago and became a cultivator, with this level of cultivation, if she went there, there would be no chance of survival.

really!

Strength is everything.

However, even if there is a spark, it will take a lot of time for him to grow.

Now, there should be people from the Baijian Sect watching everywhere in the city. It’s probably too late to withdraw.

What should I do?

"elder sister!"

Lin Shuishui's tears rolled down her cheeks, and she threw herself into Lin Qianqian's arms: "I don't want my sister to go, if anyone has to go, I'll go."

Hearing this, Zhao Mengli raised her head from Yin Qinghe's arms.

He looked at Lin Qianqian and her sister, then raised his head to look at Yin Qinghe.

"Master's Wife, I'll go. You've always protected me before, but this time, it's my turn to protect you."

"Li'er..."

Hearing this, Yin Qinghe felt as if her heart was being tugged at. She looked at Zhao Mengli in front of her with pity, her eyes full of tenderness.
