Chapter 74: Seduction
Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
There were two meanings to changing of owners.
The first level was the change of City Lords.
The second level was the change of countries!
Lin Yan hid behind the door and pressed his broad hand on Xie Lingyan’s smooth face. He covered her mouth and controlled her in front of him.
Despite the warm and fragrant girl in his arms, his hands and feet could not help but feel cold. His breathing was cold. Could this group of people be rebelling?!!
However, shouldn’t rebellion be done with a lot of preparations? They would be brainwashed with religion, raised a flag, and said something like “The heavens are dead, and the yellow sky is about to be established” before gathering their followers?
This group of people actually entered Ding’an City silently without any warning and even poisoned the entire Qinghong Martial Arts School.
Lin Yan glanced at the twenty-odd people behind Commander Shen. As he scanned them, he actually recognized one of them.
Liu Quan!
Liu Quan, the brother-in-law of Geng Bing, who was a guard of the Rich Rice Shop until he died!
The more Lin Yan looked at them, the more he felt that he had seen half of their faces somewhere before.
Lin Yan’s scalp instantly went numb. More than half of these people… were from Tiger Camp!
Weren’t they partic.i.p.ating in the Dingdeng Battle?
Why were they here?!
His heart sank to the bottom. He recalled what Elder Li had said about the strangeness of this year’s Dingdeng Battle.
There was also the Ten Fragrances Soft Tendon Powder, which was made by Gan Yang. However, it required an extremely large number of medicinal herbs and resources. Was a Strength Realm cultivator so rich?
As for Gan Yang, he was a guest of the City Lord Manor…
His breathing suddenly quickened as he said in a low voice, “Miss Xie, the situation is critical. We have to cooperate! Now, I’ll let go of you. Don’t scream, understand?”
Xie Lingyan blinked her eyes, indicating that she understood.
Lin Yan let go. Xie Lingyan’s body was soft. Her jade-like hand immediately pressed down on Lin Yan’s arm and she tried her best to support herself as she moved closer to the hole to take a look.
At a glance, her rosy face slowly lost its color. Like a sick beauty, she swayed slightly and said in a daze, “Junior Brother Chen and Junior Brother Zhao are dead. Senior Uncle Murong and Junior Brother Song are also seriously injured. Martial arts school, martial arts school…”
She turned her jade-like face to Lin Yan and said sadly, “Shi Mu, 1 misunderstood you just now. But I’m already poisoned and can’t muster any strength at all. How can I cooperate with you?”
“Miss Xie, let me ask you. Just now, where did your Pavilion Master and Main Coach go?”
“They went to the City Lord’s Mansion to attend the banquet. Otherwise, how could they allow this group of thieves to be impudent…”
“They’re the only ones invited to the City Lord’s Mansion’s banquet?”
“No, the City Lord invited the n.o.ble Realm martial masters in the city to a gathering today. He said that it’s a trade meeting.”
Lin Yan’s heart sank. “Miss Xie, have you heard of Dragon Gate Pavilion? Are there people from the Dragon Gate Pavilion attending the banquet?”
“Of course. The Pavilion Master of Dragon Gate Pavilion, Pang Yinlong, is one of the few powerful martial masters in Ding’an City, lie is definitely invited.”
After saying that, Xie Lingyan reacted and said solemnly, “You’re saying that it’s the City Lord Manor’s doing!”
Lin Yan’s expression finally couldn’t help but change.
The Dingdeng Battle, the Tiger Camp soldiers outside, the Ten Fragrances Soft Tendon Powder, and this banquet…
Could it be that the City Lord wanted to rebel against himself?
Lin Yan had no intention of investigating what conspiracy was behind this. The only thing on his mind now was Xiaozhi!
There were hundreds of people in Tiger Camp, but there were only more than ten here.
This meant that there were still many of them scattered throughout Ding’an City!
What the other party said about the change of ownership in Ding’an City was definitely not casual. It must have been launched in many places similar to Qinghong Martial Arts School!
If Dragon Gate Pavilion also encountered such a calamity, Xiaozhi would be in a dangerous situation during the chaos!
At the thought of this, his eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he made a long story short. “Miss Xie! Didn’t you notice that I also ate pancakes, but 1 wasn’t poisoned? It’s because 1 have the antidote!”
Xie Lingyan’s almond-shaped eyes widened in shock and vigilance. Then, she hesitated and pondered, her eyes shining. “What do you want me to do?”
Lin Yan heaved a sigh of relief. Xie Lingyan was very smart. Once she calmed down, she would be able to guess that he wasn’t the one who poisoned her. She was also smart enough not to ask him why there was an antidote.
“After we solve the problem of Qinghong Martial Arts School, I want you to help me make a trip to Dragon Gate Pavilion!”
Xie Lingyan didn’t hesitate. “Okay!”
Lin Yan immediately took out the antidote he had found on Gan Yang from the layer of scale armor.
There was only one bottle of antidote, and it was only enough for four or five people at most.
Xie Lingyan followed Lin Yan’s instructions and ate about a quarter.
“This poison is called the Ten Fragrances Soft Tendon Powder. Its effect is to numb blood energy. It’s said that even a n.o.ble Realm expert can be poisoned.”
The commotion outside started again. It seemed that the soldiers of Tiger Camp had a conflict with the people in the martial arts school. Not only did they use swords, but they also saw blood.
Xie Lingyan trembled and moved her wrist, but Lin Yan blocked the finger hole and prevented her from looking out.
“Miss Xie, calm down. The detoxification needs a little process. If you haven’t recovered your strength, even if you go out, you’ll be courting death.”
Xie Lingyan’s eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyelids slowly closed. She said in a low voice, “1 know.”
Lin Yan’s gaze was deep. He was as anxious as Xie Lingyan.
The only consolation was that Dragon Gate Pavilion was crowded and s.p.a.cious!
The position of the disciples was complicated. Even if they were poisoned, it was impossible for those people to poison almost everyone like Qinghong Martial Arts School.
At this moment, there was another commotion outside the door.
Lin Yan moved closer to the hole, and his expression darkened slightly. The disciples of Qinghong Martial Arts School were already surrounded by 20 soldiers.
As for the commander with the mustache, he had a serious expression and was questioning the fat chef who had wrapped the pancakes and picked up meat for them.
Lin Yan’s heart sank and he said in a low voice, “Miss Xie, how’s your recovery? They’ve realized that you’re gone.”
Xie Lingyan clenched her fists and looked depressed. “I’m still a little lacking. I don’t feel like my blood energy has fully recovered.”
Lin Yan’s expression was solemn. “It’s too late. Someone from them is looking for us.”
Xie Lingyan was silent for a moment. A trace of hesitation flashed across her fair face as she said, “I have a way to stall for time.”
In the courtyard, Commander Shen’s expression was ugly. He threw him forcefully, and the fat chef’s body, which weighed nearly 200 catties, fell heavily against the wall.
“Xie Lingyan!” He shouted coldly. “She’s also poisoned! Look for her! It’s only such a small place. She must still be here!”
lie recalled that before he left, the higher-ups had specially instructed him that Xie Lingyan was the number one person below the n.o.ble Realm of Qinghong Martial Arts School. She was very dangerous.
Another big shot specially mentioned that he had to capture Xie Lingyan alive and send her to him…
But now, Xie Lingyan was not here. If she escaped, he would be scolded when he returned.
Suddenly, with a creak, a room on the side opened.
Everyone turned around, their breathing slightly hot, and a hint of jealousy and resentment appeared in their eyes.
Lin Yan had already put on his mask and helped Xie Lingyan out step by step.
Xie Lingyan’s eyes were closed, and she looked like she was unconscious. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her plump and soft body was leaning against his arms.
His hand also wrapped around Xie Lingyan’s back and hugged her slender waist that didn’t have a trace of fat. He hugged her tightly, making her cling to him. It looked like she was throwing herself into his arms and taking the initiative to hug Lin Yan.
“Shi Mu! What are you doing!”
“Let go of Senior Sister Xie!”
“Despicable person, how dare you take advantage of others!”
“Despicable and shameless!”
Their positions were too intimate, and Lin Yan was in her arms. It instantly triggered the hatred and jealousy of the men present. They wished they could replace Lin Yan. For a moment, curses sounded everywhere.
Even Commander Shen’s eyes flashed with pa.s.sion. His throat moved slightly, let alone the other soldiers of the Tiger Camp around him.
Lin Yan could feel Xie Lingyan in his arms. Her skin was trembling slightly, emitting an even stronger heat. A refreshing fragrance rushed into his nose.
The warmth of each other’s bodies pa.s.sed through their clothes, making the tw’o of them feel a little uncomfortable.
However, things w’ere urgent. The people of the martial arts world did not care about manners.
lie carried Xie Lingyan in his arms and slowly walked out step by step, trying to stall for time.
When he was halfway there, he stopped and said loudly to Commander Shen, “Sir! Let me live!”
Commander Shen found it ridiculous. “Let you live? Is there something wrong with your brain?”
Lin Yan was unmoved. lie raised his hand and gently brushed the back of his four fingers across Xie Lingyan’s face. It felt like jelly. “Lord, do you know that this woman is very moist!”
This caused all the men present to breathe hotly, and they were filled with righteous indignation.
Very moist?
What do you mean, very moist?
How could he describe a woman as very moist!
This word was too f*cking vivid. Just hearing it made one furious!
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare you humiliate Senior Sister Xie!”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How can Miss Xie be insulted by you!”
“I’m going to kill you! Ahhh!”
However, with the Tiger Camp soldiers eying them covetously, they did not dare to act rashly.
Lin Yan could also feel that Xie Lingyan’s hand on his back suddenly tightened. Iler body also trembled violently as if it had been electrocuted.
‘Weren’t you the one who asked me to improvise?’
Lin Yan quickly pressed Xie Lingyan’s waist with his other hand, indicating for her to calm down.
lie said, “If you don’t let me live, then…”
His hand immediately moved down and wrapped around Xie Lingyan’s smooth neck, holding her firmly. Her chin was raised high, like a white swan waiting to be slaughtered.
“I can only pinch her to death. With such a moist woman to die with me, my life will not be in vain!”
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Let go of Senior Sister Xie!”
“Shi Mu, Shi Mu! I must kill you!”
“Miss Xie, wake up! Miss Xie!”
Before Commander Shen could speak, the disciples of Qinghong Martial Arts School couldn’t take it anymore. They started clamoring. There were even a few people who staggered towards Lin Yan, but they were ruthlessly kicked down by the soldiers watching over them.
Commander Shen’s expression changed, and a hint of gloominess appeared in his eyes. “Kid, kill her if you want. But remember, if she dies, I’ll cut you into a thousand pieces. I’ll definitely make you beg for death!”
Lin Yan seemed to have fallen into hesitation. For a moment, he was stunned on the spot, unable to advance or retreat.
The scene instantly fell silent. The disciples of Qinghong Martial Arts School looked up at Commander Shen in antic.i.p.ation. They were clearly enemies, but now they placed their hopes on him, hoping that he would relent.
Commander Shen was unperturbed. This person had used a woman to threaten him to spare him and had no face. He was probably not a determined person. Under the pressure of so many people, he would definitely not be able to last long and would have to give in.
Hence, he looked at Lin Yan coldly and waited for him to relent.
As time pa.s.sed, the entire courtyard gradually quietened down. No one dared to speak. Even a needle drop could be heard.
The soldiers looked at each other. The people from Qinghong Martial Arts School in the courtyard were a little bored, but Lin Yan’s hand that was strangling Xie Lingyan’s neck remained motionless. His entire body seemed to be frozen, like a statue.
Commander Shen gradually could not hold it in anymore. This kid was actually so calm!
There was a trace of anger in his eyes. “Very good, you win. Now, hand this woman to me and you can leave!”
Lin Yan seemed to heave a sigh of relief. “Really?”
“I never lie!”
Lin Yan felt Xie Lingyan’s hand gently pat his w’aist twice.
This time, he heaved a sigh of relief and said loudly, “Alright! I believe you!”
lie supported Xie Lingyan and took another few steps forward. He was only five steps away from Commander Shen.
lie removed Xie Lingyan from his arms and said in a low voice, “Take her!”
With that, he pushed her hard.
In an instant, Xie Lingyan shot towards Commander Shen like an arrow!
