Chapter 006: The Guiding Mountain Villa

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Ling Luoyu followed closely behind, and although Mu Yihan and the others were filled with confusion, at this moment they were like arrows on the string, unable to hold back. They could only force a bitter smile and closely trail behind Ling Luoyu.

Mu Yi smiled wryly and said, "Indeed, from my observations, each person here is quite extraordinary. Brother Chen, among us, your insight should be the sharpest, right? I wonder if you have discerned anything about the token that Ling Luoyu presented? I believe there must be something unusual about that token"

"Gentlemen, you have traveled from afar as guests; how could I possibly be rude! Please follow me, the food and drinks will be prepared shortly!" With that, Li Yuanhai chuckled casually and led the way into the farmhouse.

Mu Yi nodded and said, "That is true. I wonder what intentions Ling Luoyu had in bringing us to this place?"

Mu Yi let out a faint sigh and said, "Brother Chen just mentioned that Ling Luoyu excels in illusion techniques. He does not wish for us to see certain things, and thus we are utterly unable to perceive them. What you witnessed at that time was merely an illusion created by Ling Luoyu. As for the formidable nature of the Fiery Demon Refining Array, I believe you are well aware of it. If Ling Luoyu had not actively allowed me to exit the array, I would have been unable to do so at all. In my view, ever since our gathering at the Misty Rain Tower, everything we have done has been under Ling Luoyu's control; he has been leading us by the nose."

Mu Yi gave a wry smile, nodded, and said: "I wonder if Brother Chen is aware of the Fiery Demon Refining Array? In that desolate forest, I was trapped within that formation."

Mu Yi sighed and said, "I used to think the same way, alas! I wonder if Brother Chen has noticed something?"

Mu Yi pondered for a moment and said: "But what exactly is his intention in doing this? Could it be that he is deliberately targeting us? Yet, there seems to be no need for such measures. Is it possible that he has something he needs our assistance with? Knowing full well that we are all assassins, he could simply pay us, and we would be able to help him accomplish his tasks. There would be no need to scheme against us like this, would there?"

Chen Kong was slightly taken aback and said: "What has happened to make you this way? Brother Mu, have you perhaps suffered a hidden loss from Lingluo Yu at the edge of that desolate forest?"

The West Courtyard has numerous guest rooms. Five people occupied five guest rooms at mhetushu.com, yet it still appeared exceptionally spacious

"Not bad, it truly is the Celestial Order!" The bald old man glanced at the token and directly tucked it into his bosom

However, this manor is merely situated in the outskirts of the wilderness, and the vicinity of the manor is mostly barren land, which might be considered the only area resembling a farm.

Chen Kong nodded slightly and said softly, "Not bad, now it all depends on you, Brother Mu!"

Nodding gently, Chen Kong said softly, "Indeed, it does feel somewhat off; each person here does not resemble an ordinary farmer at all"

Chen Kong shook his head and said: "If Ling Luoyu really needs to guard against someone, she should suspect Qin Ling'er, because the threat posed by Qin Ling'er's poison to her might be the greatest. It seems that she has the best opportunity; perhaps she has long been under Ling Luoyu's surveillance"

"Mu Xiong? It's you!" Dragging his weary body, Chen Kong opened the door, and a figure flashed in, which was none other than Mu Yi

I am Li Yuanhai. You have all been traveling tirelessly, and I presume you must be tired. May I ask whether you intend to have a meal first or rest for a while?" The bald elder inquired respectfully with a clasped fist.

Chen Kong was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise, "We were nearby that day, how could we not feel that anything was different at all?"

Mu Yi was momentarily taken aback and said: "Although my knife has great power, I still believe that the best way to deal with Ling Luoyu is to use poison. Qin Ling'er should find it easier to succeed than I would!"

As Ling Luoyu's truck arrived at the entrance of the farm, several people came out to greet it

Chen Kong smiled and said, "Even if he has some plans, we may not necessarily lose to him. With the combined efforts of Gui Dao, Qian Shou, Zhui Feng, and Du Hua, there won't be many in the martial world who can surpass us."

After a long day of travel, Chen Kong was already quite exhausted. Just as he hurriedly closed the door to his room and was preparing to go to bed, a sudden knock sounded at the door

The freight car came to a stop, and Ling Luoyu stepped out with a slight smile, followed closely by Chen Kongmu and a few others.

Mu Yi said softly: "What Brother Chen means is ... ... "

Chen Kong sighed and said, "If we fail with a single strike, then we can only make a desperate attempt. If we still cannot subdue him, perhaps our four great assassins—Guidao, Tushu, Qianshou, and Zhuifeng—will have no choice but to withdraw from the martial world."

Uncle Li need not be so formal; it is sufficient to casually prepare some food and drinks to entertain us

Chen Kong let out a long sigh and said, "I cannot understand exactly why he did this, but I can be certain of one thing: we have indeed been schemed against by this Ling Luo Yu. After all, we, the four great assassins, have roamed the martial world for so long, yet we have been outmaneuvered by a mere young lad. Once this rumor spreads in the martial world, it can be said that our reputations will be utterly ruined."

At the forefront was a bald old man, dressed in a very ordinary blue shirt. Although both his appearance and attire were exceedingly commonplace, no matter how Mu Yi and the others looked at him, this bald old man did not seem like a farmer.

Since you have already noticed, I do not wish to hide it from you any longer!" A voice suddenly sounded as the slightly ajar door slowly opened, and Ling Luoyu walked in with a calm expression.

The so-called farm is not actually like a manor; in fact, when compared to some of the large estates in Jinyang, it is by no means inferior.

On either side of the bald old man stood two middle-aged men in black clothing, around thirty years of age, their faces solemn and not at all resembling those who would welcome guests

Taking a few steps forward, Ling Luoyu gently flipped his hand, revealing an ancient token that appeared in his palm. As he lightly caressed the patterns on the token, Ling Luoyu slowly extended it towards the bald old man.

Mu Yi cautiously glanced around and said, "Brother Chen's intention is for me to secretly take action against him, but that Ling Luoyu is very mysterious. What if I miss my strike?"

The living room in this farmhouse is quite spacious, and there are many guest rooms. After hastily finishing dinner, several people, under the arrangement of Li Yuanhai, headed towards the western courtyard.

Chen Kong nodded and said, "I have the same feeling; it seems that Ling Luoyu is deliberately guiding us to come here. I even suspect that the mysterious person who hired us to come here might be related to Ling Luoyu!"

Chen Kong shook his head and said, "Brother Mu must know that Ling Luoyu is skilled in illusion, right? If he does not want you to see the true nature of that token, it would be extremely difficult for you to discern its real appearance"

Brother Chen, have you noticed that there is something unusual about this farm?" Gently closing the door, Mu Yi lowered his voice and said
