New and dark light years

Chapter 255 Another one sent to their death.

Looking at the paper figure walking westward, and then at the young man pointing eastward, Li Lin seemed about to take a step forward.

The man immediately leaped three zhang (approximately 10 meters) backward, and sighed, "I almost succeeded."

It's obvious at a glance that this person is extremely fast.

Lu Ying was also very clever. She immediately realized what was going on and then angrily said, "You are not the Seventh Senior Brother."

Then the man rubbed his face and tore off a yellow leather mask.

"Disguise technique." Lu Ying's face turned ugly: "What did you do to Seventh Senior Brother!"

"Little girl, don't mistake me for one of those evil people who use face-changing techniques."

Li Lin also frowned.

The term "disguise" originally referred only to highly skilled makeup techniques.

However, as the art of disguise developed, disguise artists discovered that there were limits to applying pigments to the face. As a result, they refined their techniques and split into two factions.

One school of thought developed into a form of makeup transformation, which involves using dyes and props to raise one's brow bone or change one's face shape, and then applying makeup powder to make the skin appear more natural.

However, because this school of thought is very expensive and particularly troublesome to learn, not many people know it, but it is the right path.

The other school of thought is face-swapping, which is very simple to put it: it's just changing your face.

You can simply tear someone else's face off and put it on your own, just make sure to lift your face shape a bit – it's that easy.

This is the evil path.

However, it must be said that unorthodox methods do indeed offer quick results.

The man who took off his mask had a very ordinary appearance; he was the kind of person who would disappear without a trace if thrown into the street.

He clasped his hands and said, "I originally intended to use this method to ask Supervisor Li to come and talk to us in order to clear up the misunderstanding between us, but now it seems that there is no chance."

Li Lin asked, "Who are you?"

"The Immortal Execution Society, the Thousand-Faced Man, Zhang Zonghao."

The man opposite him clasped his hands in a fist salute and smiled.

The Immortal Execution Gathering!
Li Lin smiled and said, "You guys actually managed to find me."

“We’ve distributed a lot of your portraits within our organization.” Zhang Zonghao’s eyes crinkled with a smile. “At first, we weren’t quite sure, but after our undercover agent in Lingtai Prison investigated Tang Nan’s assassination, we realized it was you.”

"So obvious?"

"The only ones who can kill without anyone noticing are a few Taoist masters who know the art of invisibility, and... the Paper Prince."

"What does your Zhuxian Society want me to discuss?"

"The natural course is to turn hostility into friendship!"

Li Lin didn't believe it.

If that's really the case, why bother with such sneaky and deceptive methods to "invite" someone?

Seeing the mocking expression on Li Lin's face, Zhang Zonghao sighed, knowing that things were hopeless, and said, "In that case, I will take my leave. I hope we will meet again in the future, Supervisor Li."

After that, he was leaving.

But at that moment, a voice suddenly rang out: "I never said you could leave."

At this moment, Chu Feng, waving a fan, blocked the street.

At the same time, more than a dozen men dressed in black appeared on the surrounding rooftops and surrounded the area.

Zhang Zonghao looked up and glanced around, then looked at Chu Feng and asked coldly, "Who are you, and where do you come from?"

"Guess," Chu Feng said with a smile.

Zhang Zonghao snorted: "Dare not say?"

"You wouldn't know even if I told you. Do you remember the Star-Picking Tower?"

"No. They must be some insignificant force."

Chu Feng wasn't angry. He closed his folding fan and gently tapped his palm: "It's alright. It won't be long before my Star-Picking Pavilion becomes famous throughout the world. As for your Immortal Execution Society, it's just dog heads we use to consecrate our blades." Zhang Zonghao's expression was somewhat displeased: "Looks like another one who's delusional about cultivating immortality. Only cultivators like you would see our Immortal Execution Society as a monstrous threat, something you want to eliminate as quickly as possible."

"Delusion? Even the current emperor is cultivating immortality, how dare you call that delusion?"

"Of course it's wishful thinking. Besides, we still tried to deal with him, we just failed."

"You assassinated the Emperor?"

Zhang Zonghao said smugly, "Of course, it's a pity that the dog emperor blocked the news, otherwise we would be famous all over the world by now."

Lu Ying stared at Zhang Zonghao in shock, then turned to Li Lin and asked, "Do you think what he said is true or false?"

"it is true!"

Upon receiving an affirmative answer, Lu Ying couldn't help but hiss.

Chu Feng had a similar expression.

He then said, "Your Zhuxian Society is incoherent and full of nonsense, but in this matter, you are truly admirable."

Zhang Zonghao laughed heartily: "Then, friend from Zhaixing Tower, since you admire us, why not join our Zhuxian Society and work together to achieve great things?"

"Is your grand plan to kill the emperor and plunge the world into chaos?" Chu Feng snorted and asked.

"The world is already chaotic enough. If it weren't for the emperor, things might be better," Zhang Zonghao chuckled.

Chu Feng, however, was unwilling to say any more to him. He waved his hand and said, "Kill him."

At that moment, more than a dozen men dressed in black rushed towards Zhang Zonghao.

Zhang Zonghao didn't seem to be very good at martial arts; he spent the whole time running away and dodging. But the men in black were no pushovers either, and they coordinated very well, slowly narrowing the encirclement. Just when it seemed Zhang Zonghao was about to be trapped, a beam of green light descended diagonally from the sky at an extremely fast speed.

"careful!"

Li Lin was the quickest to react among everyone present.

He shouted, but it was too late.

The cyan light pierced through the body of a man in black, sending him flying back into the air before landing in someone's hand.

The person slowly floated down from the sky.

In his hand was a white-blue longsword.

Li Lin narrowed his eyes slightly; this was the White Jade Immortal Sword, and he was certain he hadn't mistaken it.

But it's not the one from my own house.

Although the two are made of the same material, their patterns are quite different, which is noticeable.

The man looked very young. He floated down slowly like a feather and landed on the roof. He held a sword in his right hand and put his left hand behind his back.

His long hair was loose and unbound, letting the gentle breeze blow and sway it, giving him an ethereal look.

With one less person, the encirclement of the men in black had a gap, and Zhang Zonghao broke free, leaping to the young man's side and letting out a sigh of relief: "If you hadn't come, I really would have died."

"Not only did you fail to invite anyone, but you were also followed. You were far too careless."

Zhang Zonghao smiled helplessly and said, "Even Mr. Ma makes mistakes sometimes, doesn't he?"

The young man shook his head helplessly, then looked at Li Lin and asked, "Is this the one who went astray?"

“Exactly!” Zhang Zonghao laughed. “He’s a good person, talented and gifted, but he chose to cultivate immortality. Isn’t that foolish?”

Li Lin raised an eyebrow, about to speak.

But Chu Feng, who had been ignored, spoke up first: "Another one coming to die!"

Upon hearing this, the young man looked at Chu Feng and then smiled.

He took out the white jade sword, gently ran his left hand over the blade, and laughed, "Looking at my sword, you can actually say such arrogant things. It's truly rare."

Chu Feng grinned maliciously: "Do you really think that we, the Star-Picking Pavilion, are unaware of the pathetic skills of your Immortal Execution Society?"
