Chapter 272 People in the Game
The sea of fog was vast, and Lin Mu and Gu Yun disappeared in it immediately.
The rolling white fog had not yet subsided, and seven people quickly flew in from outside the misty forest.
The seven people were dressed in ordinary clothes, just like ordinary demon hunters.
But people with a higher level of cultivation could see that these seven people were absolutely extraordinary, and each of them was at the peak of the late spiritual silence.
The peak of the late spiritual silence was only one step away from the golden elixir stage. If they were lucky, they would most likely condense the golden elixir and advance to the golden elixir stage. There were only three or five such cultivators in ordinary sects.
Now that seven people appeared here together, they must have some plan.
"It's them!" A cultivator in green squinted his eyes, looking at the misty white fog, and said leisurely.
He had a handsome face, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his every move was capable and agile. At a glance, he knew that he was a pure sword cultivator.
"What Song Xin said is true. These two people are well-known, and everyone in Linwufang has heard of them." Another purple-clothed cultivator nodded slightly, looking calm and composed, with extraordinary bearing.
The rest of the people all nodded slightly.
A black-clothed man said straight to the point: "Don't talk about these empty words, just tell us how to act and how to divide the spoils afterwards."
The two hemp-clothed cultivators behind the black-clothed man nodded in unison, and it was obvious that the three of them were on the same side.
Song Xin smiled and said: "This is the first time that the seven of us have met, and our strengths are all extraordinary. It is inevitable that there will be disagreements. The strength of those two has long exceeded the scope of ordinary spiritual silence cultivators. We must work together, otherwise there is no hope for this matter, and you and I may all die here. But who will coordinate the actions and make decisions?"
After Song Xin finished speaking, he looked at the purple-clothed cultivator and the black-clothed man with a smile on his face.
Among these seven people, he, the purple-clothed cultivator, and the black-clothed man are the strongest.
Behind Song Xin, two cultivators who were also wearing green clothes said in unison: "That's right. In order to avoid disputes in the future, it is better to decide on a leader."
The two of them and Song Xin were in the same group, so they naturally supported Song Xin.
The big man in black and the two behind him were in the same group.
The cultivator in purple clothes was alone, but he had a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't care at all.
"You two will discuss the decision-making, I am only responsible for killing people and dividing the spoils." The big man in black said nonchalantly.
Song Xin's smile became even stronger, and he looked at the cultivator in purple clothes and said: "I wonder what Brother Liang Jun thinks?"
Liang Jun in purple clothes said calmly: "Brother Song Xin can make the decision alone."
Song Xin's face was full of smiles, and he bowed his hands and said: "Then I will respectfully obey your order and be generous for once."
The two cultivators in green clothes behind him were also smiling.
Song Xin can make decisions on the actions of the seven people, and they can also benefit a lot. Whether it is against the enemy or dividing the spoils, they have many advantages. When fighting against the enemy, they can fly kites from behind, and when dividing the spoils, they can be ahead of others and get there first.
The big man in black said: "Since you are the one in charge, then you can tell us what to do."
Song Xin stopped smiling and was no longer polite. He said solemnly: "This action can only succeed, not fail. This is an order from above. Once we fail, not to mention being killed by the two of them, even if we come back alive, the people above will kill us to silence us."
"You tell me the point." The big man in black said impatiently: "Everyone has known this for a long time."
The two people behind the big man also said: "Don't waste time. Once they go deep into the misty forest, it will be difficult for us to find them."
Liang Jun in purple smiled, but said nothing.
Song Xin was not angry at the rudeness of the black-clothed man. He said, "The purpose of this time is to kill these two people. I don't need to elaborate on Gu Yun's background. Although he is famous, his real strength is only comparable to mine. As far as I know, he has not yet mastered the sword skills. If I use the sword skills, I alone can kill him. Moreover, he is extremely wealthy. His skills, sword techniques, and magic weapons are all the best of the best. Once he succeeds, he will become rich overnight!"
The rest of the people smiled when they heard this.
The purple-clothed Liang Jun asked, "Lin Mu is very well hidden. How strong is he?"
Song Xin turned and looked at Liang Jun, saying, "The problem is Lin Mu. If it weren't for him, this operation would have at least an 80% chance of success. But now that he's one more person, the difficulty of killing Gu Yun has increased several times."
The black-clothed man said disdainfully, "He's just a late-stage foundation-building cultivator. Why take it so seriously?"
This time, Song Xin argued, "Don't be careless. Lin Mu is not as simple as you think. I have specially inquired about his origins, and the results are really surprising."
"Then tell me." The purple-clothed Liang Jun seemed to be very interested in Lin Mu.
Song Xin nodded and said, "Lin Mu's background is extremely ordinary. Both his parents are mortals and he has no background. But he has done several remarkable things. First, he escaped from the pursuit of the entire sect of Yuling Sect disciples without any injury. He also killed dozens of Qi Refining disciples and one Foundation Establishment disciple. At that time, his cultivation was only at the Qi Refining stage, and many Spiritual Silence disciples were helpless against him."
"He is so powerful?" The black-clothed man was also moved: "He is really not simple to escape the pursuit of the Yuling Sect. It is unbelievable that he can do this in the Qi Refining Stage."
"What about the second one?" Seeing the black-clothed man interrupt Song Xin, Liang Jun in purple asked.
"The second is that he occupied the Mist Lake decades ago and has been there ever since." Song Tongdao: "The Mist Lake is a taboo place for all the major sects, but he can be safe and sound there. It seems that the Qianyu Sword Sect has also specially sent some ordinary disciples to let Lin Mu help train them. Such a good thing, even the head of our sect is very jealous."
"This doesn't mean anything." Purple-clothed Liang Jun said lightly: "He is only in the foundation-building stage. Even the Jindan stage cultivators dare not easily set foot on the Mist Lake. There may be other reasons why he can occupy it alone."
Song Xin nodded: "This is just one of the points, but it is enough to show that he is different. Not only that, his strength is also not bad at all. When he returned to the sect to recruit disciples, he had a fierce battle with Leng Shan of the Qianyu Sword Sect. Leng Shan had already comprehended the sword skills at that time, but when he and others were besieged, he used the sword skills, which was also Unable to do anything to Lin Mu, he was eventually defeated by Lin Mu. "
"Even his sword skills couldn't do anything to him?" Purple-clothed Liang Jun was also moved and said, "He is so powerful?"
"That's not all." Song Xin continued, "He later opened a shop in Linwufang. The Baibao Pavilion was opened by him. His business was extremely hot and he had already made a lot of money. He was the behind-the-scenes promoter of this talisman trend."
The big man in black couldn't help but be surprised and said, "This talisman trend was actually created by him?"
"Absolutely true!" Song Xin also said with admiration, "This talisman trend came too strangely and swiftly. I thought it was pushed by some big sect, but after the spies in the sect investigated, they found that this talisman trend was caused by Lin Mu."
"That's really a big profit!" A big man in hemp clothes praised.
"According to my preliminary estimate, Lin Mu's net worth is at least three million low-grade spirit stones!" A green-clothed cultivator followed closely.
"Then we will also make a lot of money!" Another hemp-clothed cultivator laughed.
Purple-clothed Liang Jun frowned and asked Song Tongdao: "How did he get to know Guo Yun?"
"The problem lies here!" Song Tongdao: "Before, a group of people were sent to kill Guo Yun. At that time, Guo Yun was only in the early stage of spiritual silence. It was thought that the action was foolproof, but in the end it failed. Several people who went there died in the Misty Forest. Afterwards, Guo Yun and Lin Mu appeared together. Therefore, it is very likely that Lin Mu rescued Guo Yun at that time."
"So that's it." Purple-clothed Liang Jun seemed to have realized something: "I was wondering how he could thrive in Linwufang. It turns out that Guo Yun was supporting him behind the scenes. This Lin Mu is really not simple. Whether it is strength or scheming, he is not an easy person to deal with. This action needs to be carefully planned."
The black-clothed man also looked very solemn. Such an opponent is indeed very difficult.
"Wushuang Sword Sect has countless powerful disciples, but Gu Yun did not bring anyone with him, only Lin Mu." Song Xin said solemnly: "From this, we can see that in Gu Yun's mind, Lin Mu's strength is better than those top masters in his sect. Therefore, we must not be careless at all, and must not be deceived by his foundation-building stage!"
This time, all six people nodded, and no one raised any objections.
Song Xin looked at the six people and said with satisfaction: "This elaborate layout has reached the harvest stage. Gu Yun has been tricked and will definitely go to the depths of the misty forest to collect herbs. In this case, we don't need to waste our energy to find him. We can just go there and wait."
The rest of the people nodded in agreement, but the purple-clothed cultivator said with a little worry: "I always feel that it is not right. Although this layout is carefully planned, it is not surprising that Gu Yun can be deceived, but how can it deceive Wushuang Zhenren? Is this the beginning of another conspiracy? Perhaps, we have also fallen into the trap."
After these words came out, Song Xin and the black-clothed big man felt that it made sense.
In this layout, Wushuang Zhenren did not make any moves at all, as if he had no idea, which was really a bit strange.
Although they all admired the people above, Wushuang Zhenren was the number one person in Tianxiao Realm after all. If they really didn't find even a trace of clues, it would be too self-deception.
Song Tongdao said: "This is not something we should think about. Our only goal now is to kill them both."
The big man in black was not good at intrigue in this regard, and nodded quickly: "That's right. Let's just kill people and don't think too much."
"Then let's go." said Liang Yun in purple.
The figures of several people flashed and immediately disappeared into the vast white fog.
Liang Yun was thinking secretly while flying.
He could see the abnormality of Wushuang Zhenren, and the people above must know it better than him.
But now, he was still sent to kill Guo Yun, why?
Are they not afraid that Wushuang Zhenren will also set an ambush?
Or in their eyes, he, like Song Xin and the big man in black, is just a chess piece that can be discarded at will?
Thinking of this, Liang Yun couldn't help but feel sad.
