“What’s that person’s name? What’s his background?” Jing Hai asked impatiently.
The black-robed man immediately saw through his companion’s intention and frowned. “I’ve said it before. That person is a special case. If we want to take him down, we have to make a thorough plan!”
Jing Hai chuckled.
“You’re afraid of exposing your ident.i.ty, but I’m not!
“I’ve been living in seclusion all these years. The people of Silverscale City only think of me as a talented apothecary. No one knows my true ident.i.ty. As long as I’m careful, I don’t have to worry about the Nine Yang Academy finding out about me!”
Jing Hai’s tone was filled with confidence.
Hearing this, the black-robed man fell silent as if he was a little shaken.
Jing Hai saw this and took advantage of his hesitation. He waved his hand and said, “It’s settled then. The longer we delay, the more trouble there will be. I’ll take action in a few days. The sooner we break through the bottleneck, the sooner we can reorganize the organization and get through the current predicament!”
After a moment of silence, the black-robed man finally nodded and recounted Lin Shen’s information.
Jing Hai smiled when heard this. Before he could say anything, his gaze suddenly focused, and his expression became incomparably cold.
The black-robed man raised his eyebrows. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing. A group of animals has barged into my territory!”
Jing Hai sneered, and cold killing intent appeared in his eyes.
“What a bunch of ignorant animals. They were lucky enough to escape last time, but they still dare to come back. They really have a death wish!
“Alright, I’ll use you as the ingredients for tonight’s pill refinement!”
The black-robed man lost interest when he heard this. He stood up and prepared to leave.
“Take care. I won’t see you off. When we catch the person and refine him into a pill, we’ll drink a few more cups!” Jing Hai said.
The black-robed man waved his hand without looking back. His figure suddenly blurred, and in the next moment, he had already disappeared from the spot.
Jing Hai wasn’t surprised and waved his sleeve.
In an instant, mist appeared out of thin air and quickly condensed into a water mirror in front of him.
In the mirror, a man and a woman were walking out of a building with a group of spirit cats.
The scene brought a killing intent to Jing Hai’s eyes. He instantly disappeared from the spot.
The moment he walked out of the building, Lin Shen immediately heard a considerable commotion in the distance.
Looking over, one could vaguely see flames soaring into the sky.
It was obvious that Tang Ying and the others had already begun to take action.
Seeing this, Lin Shen and Tang Yue immediately rushed in the opposite direction with the spirit cats.
Most of the guards and servants in the manor were attracted by the fire, and there were only a few left nearby.
Along the way, Lin Shen knocked out the servants he met and threw them to the side of the road.
It wasn’t until they reached the outer courtyard that they met a team of patrolling guards.
From the looks of it, they were in a hurry and seemed to be rushing to the place where the commotion came from.
Seeing a figure approaching from afar, the leader immediately shouted,
“Who’s that over there? Stop!”
Lin Shen ignored him and pointed at the air.
In an instant, there was a sharp and short sound of air being torn apart. A wisp of incomparably sharp energy shot out and pierced through the center of the captain’s forehead like an arrow!
The poor guard captain didn’t even have time to scream before he died on the spot!
The guards didn’t expect that the person opposite them would attack just like that. Even the captain of the team, who was at the third level of the Long Breath Stage, was instantly killed. They immediately panicked.
“Captain!”
“Quickly! Blow the whistle and call for help!”
“Wait, he’s coming at us! Ah!!”
Before the guards could recover from their panic, Lin Shen had already rushed into the crowd like a ghost and waved his palms repeatedly.
As the palm wind surged, this group of guards, who were only at the Qi Transformation Stage, died one after another. In an instant, they were all wiped out, turning into corpses and falling to the ground.
Tang Yue was speechless.
Although she could handle these guards, she definitely couldn’t be as casual and relaxed as Lin Shen!
And from the looks of it, Lin Shen had clearly not used his full strength!
At this moment, Tang Yue finally understood why the cat general was full of praise for Lin Shen’s strength.
“Let’s go!”
Lin Shen voice woke Tang Yue up.
She stopped her distracting thoughts and followed Lin Shen.
Under the night sky, the group of men and cats ran towards the gate of the manor.
On the way, they encountered four or five more guards. Among them, there was a captain at the Long Breath Stage. However, he was only at the second or third level. Lin Shen didn’t even draw his weapon and easily took care of him.
Before long, they arrived at the front courtyard.
Seeing this, Tang Yue immediately perked up.
After pa.s.sing through this courtyard, there would be a high wall a hundred meters away. After that wall, they would be able to leave this manor!
However, just as joy appeared on her face, a m.u.f.fled thunder suddenly came from behind.
Tang Yue was alarmed.
The demon’s sharp intuition gave her gooseb.u.mps. She felt a chill run down her spine.
In her fear, the girl turned her head to look behind her. From the corner of her eye, she happened to see a chain of blazing white light tearing through the void and attacking at high speed!
There were countless things that the demons feared the most in their lives. There was no doubt that lightning was one of them.
Especially demons who had yet to pa.s.s the Human Tribulation, they were most afraid of lightning. The brilliant heavenly power contained in it was enough to destroy their bodies and souls!
A sense of death instantly overwhelmed her.
Despair appeared on Tang Yue’s pretty face.
At the critical moment, a scorching wave of air suddenly came from the side.
Crimson light instantly filled her vision.
Under Tang Yue’s dumbfounded gaze, a huge red palm appeared out of thin air and faced the blazing white light!
BOOM!
A deafening roar resounded in the sky above the manor!
