Chapter 48: Encountered an Ambush

"Since Fellow Daoist Che Huan has admitted it, I won't drag it out. Do you want to disperse your spiritual consciousness and re-enter the cycle of reincarnation? Or should I send you off?" Xiao Lin had no intention of letting the man in front of him go. If the news of the Fire Cloud Pendant he got from the Fu family spread out, he would probably be hunted down by a bunch of people in a few days.

Xiao Lin didn't want to see such a thing happen. Besides, whether it was Fu Rong or Fu Chuan, Xiao Lin didn't have a good impression of this family. The so-called helping others to the end, sending Buddha to the west, and not leaving trouble for yourself, this is the code of conduct that Xiao Lin has summed up over the years.

The old man was pale. He was indeed Che Huan's soul, and he took over the old housekeeper, but the old housekeeper did not have spiritual roots. It can be said that her life has been cut off, and she is just lingering on.

With a light sigh, the old man took out a dagger flashing with a cold light from his arms and stabbed it directly into his heart.

From beginning to end, Xiao Lin did not move, just watching the old man fall in a pool of blood. After a cup of tea, Xiao Lin stretched out his right hand, and there was a fist-sized burning fireball on his palm. He threw it casually, and the fireball fell on the old man's body.

In the blink of an eye, the body was burned to ashes. After doing all this, Xiao Lin sighed softly and left the Fu family.

All the way out of the city gate, Xiao Lin drove the Seven Blades Slash and broke through the air.

Ten days later, Xiao Lin's figure appeared in Shuiyun Valley. He was standing in front of a lonely grave. Looking at the lonely grave in front of him, Xiao Lin couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions. A few years ago, he was just an outer sect prospecting disciple of Bailian Hall, but now he is a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage. It must be said that sometimes fate is really a wonderful thing.

With a light sigh, Xiao Lin said indifferently: "You three have followed me for thousands of miles, come out."

As soon as the voice fell, three people walked out of the woods not far away. These three people looked very young. One was about 27 or 28 years old, with a dark face, a wide nose and a wide mouth, short hair, wearing a green robe, and a metal shoulder guard on his left shoulder. What's more exaggerated is that he also carried a huge axe that was four feet long. One was about 23 or 24 years old, with a fair face, wearing a white robe, holding a folded paper fan in his hand, waving it gently, he looked like a scholar who went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, but his pair of peach blossom eyes made him look a bit evil. The last person was a woman, about 25 years old, with a bun on her head and a golden hairpin inserted diagonally in her bun. The woman looked very beautiful, but her beauty was not as pure and lovely as Luo Shuang, but rather a bit enchanting.

Seeing the three people, Xiao Lin's face turned gloomy: "You three have followed me all the way, I wonder if you have any advice?"

"Hehe, fellow Daoist should know that for a casual cultivator like you, if we don't have something to ask, we naturally won't be interested in you." The cultivator who looked like a scholar came forward, gently waved a paper fan, and said with a smile.

"Have you also participated in the auction?" Xiao Lin's heart sank. Originally, when he came out of the auction house, he specially walked around the inner city for a long time just to prevent someone from targeting him, but he didn't expect that he couldn't escape.

"Hehe, it's good that you know. You can only blame your bad luck for being targeted by the three of us. Hand over the storage bag on your body obediently, and we can also let your origin re-enter the reincarnation, otherwise you will be destroyed." The dark-faced man sneered a few times, gently waved the giant axe in his hand, and said.

Xiao Lin couldn't help but sigh in his heart. A few days ago, he said the same thing to the Fu family, but now the target has changed to himself. It must be said that things in the world are unpredictable. He took a deep breath and said, "It seems that no matter whether I hand over the things on my body or not, you will not spare my life?"

"Hehe, little brother is really smart. Sister has always done things cleanly and neatly. How could I leave a disaster for myself? But if little brother cooperates well, I can give you a quick death. Otherwise, sister doesn't mind letting you taste the pain of soul refining." The enchanting woman swayed her willow waist lightly, bringing a burst of fragrant wind.

Xiao Lin's face was calm, but he was very uneasy. The two male cultivators gave him a feeling like a mountain. He had felt this feeling from the guard at the door at the auction of Babaozhai. This shows that the two male cultivators are all in the state of great perfection of the Qi Refining Period, while the enchanting woman gave him a better feeling, but he couldn't sense her cultivation level, which means that the enchanting woman is at least in the late stage of Qi Refining, the eighth and ninth levels.

This made Xiao Lin feel unprecedented pressure. If he was only facing a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage, Xiao Lin would still be somewhat confident that he could fight one or two of them. However, facing two cultivators at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage and one cultivator at the late stage of Qi Refining Stage, he really felt that this battle was very dangerous.

"I'm just very surprised. The mask of the Eight Treasures House can completely cover the breath and cultivation of the cultivators. Moreover, I think I am quite cautious in doing things, but I don't know how you three can be sure that I have participated in the auction and can track me all the way here?" Xiao Lin asked.

"Hehe, what's so strange about this? My brother is good at recognizing people's eyes. A person's breath and cultivation can be covered, but the eyes can't be changed. Just remember your eyes and guard at the city gate. I think you can't always stay in the fairy city, uh." The dark-faced man was outspoken. Before the scholar-looking man had time to stop him, he said it all at once, but then he saw the gloomy face of the scholar-like cultivator and quickly closed his mouth.

"It's okay to let you know. Anyway, you are going to die today. I thought that those who can participate in the auction should be similar to us, at least a late Qi Refining cultivator. I didn't expect that you are only at the sixth level of Qi Refining. We are a little surprised." The scholar-like cultivator looked at Xiao Lin and said lightly.

"Okay, do you want to do it yourself, or do we do it?" Without waiting for Xiao Lin to answer, the scholar-like cultivator's face turned cold and said.

"I don't have the habit of sitting back and waiting to die." Before Xiao Lin finished speaking, a three-foot-long blade appeared in his hand, and he chopped it out fiercely. A long green blade about ten feet long suddenly appeared on the long blade, and when the long blade fell, six long blades followed closely, almost without order, and slashed at the enchanting woman fiercely.

Xiao Lin understood that the enchanting woman had the weakest cultivation among the three people. If he could injure her in one go, it would undoubtedly relieve a lot of pressure for himself.

Seeing Xiao Lin's sudden attack, the enchanting woman was not panicked. She chuckled and tapped the bag on her waist. A palm-sized khaki silk handkerchief flew out of it. The silk handkerchief flew lightly to the top of the enchanting woman's head. Under the yellow light, it became three feet in size and emitted a thick yellow light.

"Puff" Xiao Lin's seven-blade slash issued a knife energy, which slashed on the silk handkerchief, as if it was slashing on a ball of cotton. The force was immediately like a drop in the ocean, and disappeared without a trace. That feeling made Xiao Lin extremely uncomfortable, as if he had punched with all his strength, but hit the air, so powerless.

The dark-faced man and the scholar-like monk did not move from beginning to end. Perhaps in their opinion, Xiao Lin, a cultivator of the sixth level of Qi Refining, was enough for the enchanting woman alone.

Xiao Lin suddenly shot forward and came to within three feet of the enchanting woman. With a "hum", the Seven Blades in his hand floated up again, and three feet above Xiao Lin's head, it turned into a sword energy of several feet long, and slashed down again fiercely.

The enchanting woman didn't even raise her eyelids, obviously very confident about the silk scarf on her head. She gently patted the storage bag on her waist, and a silver hairpin flew out of it. The style was 70% similar to the one on her head. With her light throw, the silver hairpin immediately shot towards Xiao Lin like an arrow from a string.

A hazy green light suddenly emerged from the storage bag on Xiao Lin's waist, and a small black shield appeared from it. In a flash, it grew several times larger and formed a black shield, blocking him in front of him.

"Ding." A sharp collision sound came, and then Xiao Lin was shocked to see that his ebony spirit shield actually had a crack in the middle. Although it knocked the silver hairpin away, it broke into four or five pieces with a "bang" and fell to the ground.

"High-level magic weapon?" Xiao Lin exclaimed. Only high-level magic weapons could easily break his ebony spirit shield. Xiao Lin's heart sank to the bottom. He didn't expect that just a charming woman in the late stage of Qi Refining would make him so exhausted. If three people came together, he would probably have no chance.

The dark-faced man and the scholar-looking monk, although they did not make a move, looked at him with vigilance. Xiao Lin thought for a moment and understood that the two men obviously knew that he had bought three talismans from the auction house. Two of the three talismans were sealed with primary attack spells of the Great Perfection level. Once activated, even if they were at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Stage, they would be in a hurry and might get hurt. So they were on guard beside him. They thought that as long as he activated the talisman, they would attack.

Seeing the silver hairpin turn in the air and shoot towards him again, a whirlwind suddenly appeared under Xiao Lin's feet, followed by his figure shaking a few times, and then appeared again, less than a foot in front of the enchanting woman.

The enchanting woman was obviously surprised. She changed her spells and the silver hairpin in the air shot towards Xiao Lin again. This time, it was very fast. Xiao Lin sighed helplessly and used the Flowing Cloud Light Body Technique. With the help of the Wind-controlling Shoes on his feet, his figure swayed and was several feet away. Although the silver hairpin was very fast, it could only follow closely behind Xiao Lin.

The enchanting woman frowned slightly, but then she uttered an obscure spell.

Xiao Lin's face changed, but he was so embarrassed by the silver hairpin that he had no time to think about how to deal with the enchanting woman. However, the reason why he had not used the Flash Shield and Fireball Technique was to paralyze the few people and make them mistakenly think that he only had these means, so as not to come up and attack directly.
