Chapter 26.2 - ALIC Chapter 26.2
Lin Ziran rushed directly at Mu Yan!
The scimitar flashed, cold and awe-inspiring.
But Lin Ziran didn’t care! He dipped a little sideways, letting the white scimitar cut into his arm, and at the same time, used both hands to firmly grasp Mu Yan’s shoulder, and bit his neck in one bite!
Mu Yan was shocked. He was about to tear Lin Ziran off, but failed and the wound on his neck became even more painful!
“Ahhhhhhhhh! Let me go!” Mu Yan screamed and felt his spiritual energy suddenly disappear, flowing away from his neck at a speed that shocked him.
In the blink of an eye, there was nothing but a bag of skin left. The last thing that appeared on his face was extreme fear and despair…
The white scimitar lost its owner and fell to the ground.
Lin Ziran released Mu Yan. He suddenly turned around and rushed out. He knelt on the ground and started vomiting!
After vomiting for a long time, he felt better.
Then he turned and looked at Mu Yan coldly. If he hadn’t made a decisive decision just now, he would have been killed by this cannon fodder.
Oh, even if this game fails, it was still death. How could it be killed by this scum!
Lin Ziran got up from the ground, and suddenly saw the package falling aside. It was originally prepared for the blind, but now it seems to be useless…
Also, he had been injured just now.
If Mu Yang finds out, he would be worried again. Lin Ziran hastened to look at the wounds on his arms and shoulders, but to his surprise, he saw his bone-deep wounds healing until there were no traces left. Only the broken and bloody clothes underneath showed what had happened.
Lin Ziran groaned slightly, and glanced at Mu Yan who had been sucked dry… and soon realized that it seems that sucking other people’s spiritual essence can heal himself, and this body was indeed an extraordinary demon.
That’s good, so Mu Yang and Mu Yazhu wouldn’t worry.
Lin Ziran returned to the cave again, looked down at the ashes on the ground, knelt on the ground and fumbled for a long time. He finally gatherer all the bones inside.
Wait, what’s this?
Lin Ziran seemed to touch something hard and smooth. He picked it up and wiped it. It turned out to be a white jade pendant engraved with primitive patterns, its warmth glowing in his palm.
This was not his, nor could it be in the cave, because he was familiar with every corner of the cave…
It could only be left by the blind man, because he had not changed his clothes.
After getting along for more than a month, in the end, he only left behind a bunch of bones and a jade pendant.
Lin Ziran sighed.
He raised his hand to gather the bones into a pile, went outside to dig some dirt to cover it, and patted it. He finally stood up and said gently: “Now, I don’t have to worry about what you eat.”
Because you are dead.
I was the one who caused it.
Lin Ziran was silent for a long time, and finally put away the white jade pendant. He thought even if it was a memorial, it seemed like a useful thing. Maybe he would meet someone that recognised it?
At that time, whether it’s gratitude or grudges, I will help you settle them… It is all because you refused to say when I asked you before, causing this to become so troublesome…
I’m really leaving this time.
I will not come back again.
Goodbye.
………………
Lin Ziran was covered in blood. Not daring to be discovered by Mu Yazhu, he quietly returned to the room late at night, changing out of the blood-stained clothes and burning them.
He laid on the bed with his eyes open, and rubbed the jade pendant in his hand. This warm jade looks very valuable. Maybe the blind man had a wealthy family before, but he did not know how he had fallen to this point…
As for Mu Yan…
He was just a vicious cannon fodder that would die in Li Ye’s hands sooner or later, and now he was just sending him off in advance.
Originally, he was still worried about what to do after he left. Who knew that he didn’t need to think about this issue so soon. Lin Ziran sighed again. Sure enough, a game is a game, and a nameless cannon fodder is fated for death.
Thinking about it, he hugged the quilt and fell asleep.
The next day Lin Ziran was awakened by a knock on the door. He opened the door and saw Mu Yang smiling, so he said, “Wait for me to wash up.”
Mu Yang smiled and said, “Okay.”
In fact, he didn’t have much to pack. If it weren’t for Mu Yang, he would still be in an empty house… In the end, Lin Ziran simply packed a few pieces of clothes, put the jade pendant next to him, closed the door and left.
Before leaving, he went to see Mu Yazhu. Mu Yazhu was like usual. Although she looked sick, she was always calm and smiled gently, “Ye’er.”
Lin Ziran said solemnly: “Mother, I am leaving.”
Mu Ya Zhu nodded and said, “Listen to Mu Yang outside and take care of yourself. You don’t have to worry about mother.”
Lin Ziran thought for a while, and said, “I know, once I succeed in my cultivation, I will come back to see you.”
Mu Yazhu looked at him seriously and attentively, and couldn’t help covering her lips and laughing. Her beautiful eyes were like autumn water reflecting the moon, she said softly: “Okay, mother is waiting for you to come back.”
Lin Ziran gazed at Mu Yazhu and said dumbly: “I’m leaving.”
He closed the door and walked out of the house.
Mu Yang was waiting for him outside. His pale skin seemed to be covered in the soft golden glow of the morning sun. There was a warm smile in his dark and clear eyes. He stretched out his hand to him, as before. “Let’s go.”
Lin Ziran walked towards the boy.
A huge cloud-walking beast was holding the chariot and waiting aside. Its front hoofs struck the ground impatiently twice, and its nostrils made a grunt. When both of them got on the chariot, they quickly flapped their wings and soared into the sky.
Their destination was Fenghe City.
The selection of the Holy Palace was held every ten years, and one selection site would be set up for every nine cities. The closest selection site is located in Fenghe City.
Chongzhou City was located in a remote area, hundreds of miles away from Fenghe City. It was very slow to walk or ride a horse. Therefore, using this cloud-walking beast was equivalent to traveling by plane. They could reach Fenghe City in just one day.
Of course, the main reason was that Lin Ziran still had a mortal body. If he became a successful cultivator, his sword could fly for thousands of miles without any tools.
Looking down from the sky, Fenghe City is much larger than Chongzhou City.
After the two arrived, they went straight into the city.
The selection of the Holy Palace was an annual event in the Chiyan Immortal Realm. It was an opportunity for ordinary cultivators to ascend to the sky in one step… Therefore, all the proud people from the nearby eight cities rushed over, causing it to be more lively than before, and the streets were bustling with people. It really looked more prosperous and lively than Chongzhou City.
Although Mu Yang was a distinguished young city lord in Chongzhou City, all the talents who came here through the initial test were all first-class talents in their city, and there was no lack of distinguished wealthy children and children of city lords. But Mu Yang had a good mentality. He neither cared about his opponent nor compared himself with others. Instead, he took Lin Ziran shopping.
There were many snacks and delicacies that were different from Chongzhou City.
Lin Ziran liked Mu Yang’s warm and cheerful personality. Shopping and eating with him was like being with a friend in reality. It was very easy to get along with each other, but it’s a pity that he likes shopping and had to pretend to be indifferent… Lin Ziran finally managed to calm down.
The two of them wandered around for a long time, and it was not until evening that they planned to go to an inn to rest.
The Mu family had already sent someone here to book a room, otherwise it would not be easy to find a place to stay during such a grand event. As soon as the two entered the inn, the steward of the Mu family respectfully greeted him. He first greeted Mu Yang, and then looked at Lin Ziran suspiciously. Is this the servant of the Young City Lord?
Mu Yang said, “This is my friend, Li Ye. You can also arrange a room for him.”
The steward suddenly showed a look of embarrassment. He didn’t know that Mu Yang would bring a friend over, and said, “I’m afraid there are no other rooms at this inn. I’ll go elsewhere to help Young Master Li Ye find a place to stay. ”
Mu Yang hesitated when he heard these words, and said: “In that case, no need for the trouble. I can stay in the same room with him.”
Steward Mu hesitated: “This…”
Mu Yang smiled: “It’s just one night, it’s okay to squeeze a little.”
Steward Mu also felt that it was troublesome to find a place to stay for a night, so he didn’t continue to insist. Before leaving, he told Mu Yang to contact him directly if there was anything.
After the steward left, Mu Yang turned his head and smiled at Lin Ziran: “Let’s go in.”
