Jin Lin paced back and forth, completely convinced of his deduction.
He believed that he was not the only one. The Sword Saint should have discovered it as well.
It was difficult to imitate the aura of an expert. As a master of swordsmanship and Dugu Yifang's brother, there was no reason for him not to know.
The only reason he didn't expose it was probably that the Sword Saint was hiding it too! He didn't want the world to know about this.
Just as Jin Lin was deep in thought, a guard who had come to deliver a message suddenly arrived.
He knelt on one knee in front of Jin Lin and said sincerely,
"Young Master Jin Lin, the Sword Saint invites you to his residence! Please come with me."
Jin Lin and Ming Yue looked at each other. Although Jin Lin had just returned, Ming Yue said kindly,
"You can go! Uncle Sword Saint must have something important to discuss with you. I'll wait for you at home. Remember to come back early.”
Jin Lin nodded lightly and said to the guard,
"Lead the way!"
The guard and the golden unicorn were in front and behind.
After passing through a few bustling streets and a few nameless alleys, the two of them finally arrived at the Sword Saint's seclusion place.
In an inconspicuous Sword Hut.
The guard bowed and invited him in, and Jin Lin stepped into the door.
As soon as he walked in, Jin Lin heard a faint cry. There was a hint of sobs in his voice.
"Father!"
"Why did you leave just like that, Father?”
Jin Lin only saw it clearly when he walked inside.
A person was lying on a stretcher with blood flowing out of the corner of his mouth and his body damaged!
Upon closer inspection, he was the current City Lord of Peerless City: Dugu Yifang's face was ice-cold and his limbs were stiff. He had already breathed his last.
The one kneeling beside Dugu Yifang was Dugu Ming!
In the past, he had the protection of his father, Dugu Yifang, and could act without fear. However, this time, his father had also died tragically in the hands of the World Association. What would he do in the future?
"It must be little friend Jin Lin!"
A voice called out from the cabinet. Jin Lin was very familiar with it. It was the voice of the Sword Saint.
"Young friend, please come to the cabinet for a chat. This old man has something to ask of you!”
When Jin Lin heard this, he also entered.
The Sword Saint was sitting in front of a sharp sword, meditating and comprehending!
At this moment, he was no longer as energetic as he was when he fought the golden qilin. His body was withered and his life force was almost exhausted.
It was most likely because he had closed himself up and failed to comprehend the twenty-three moves, causing him to run out of oil.
"Yes, I'm here. If you have anything to say, just say it!”
Jin Lin could tell that the Sword Saint was most likely an arrow at the end of its flight, so he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"Haha, little friend Jin Lin is indeed a straightforward person!”
The Sword Saint smiled bitterly. He did not have much strength left.
"You should have seen Dugu Yifang who just died, right?”
Jin Lin nodded lightly. Was it really related to Dugu Yifang's death?
"Actually, this Dugu Yifang is an imposter. However, this matter is a secret that very few people know about. Even his son, Dugu Ming, is kept in the dark.”
"Once, my younger brother, who is the real Dugu Yifang, wanted to watch the earth-shattering battle between Nameless and Pojun, so he found a fake substitute and sat in the city. He originally wanted to return to the city after watching the battle, but who would have thought that he would never return? Thus, the City Lord Substitute was kept.”
"Until today, this fake Dugu Yifang has died, and I am already at the end of my life. The current Peerless City is already in a state where there is no successor. Our city is in danger!”
"That's why I called little friend Golden Qilin here today to do business with you!”
The Sword Saint said as the Dual Sun Sword flew out from his hand. At the same time, he also brought a sword manual with four big words written on it, Sacred Spirit Sword Technique!
"Oh? What deal?"
Seeing these two items, Jin Lin finally became interested and asked indifferently.
"I want to use the Peerless Yang Sword and the ? Holy Spirit Sword Technique ? to exchange for the power of protecting the city.”
"I know, young friend Jin Lin, you have the world in your heart! Peerless City may not be able to keep you, but I still want to ask you to protect Peerless City for me while you're in Peerless City. If you leave Peerless City one day, I won't blame you. I only hope that you can protect the people in the city for me and live and work in peace and contentment.”
The Sword Saint said sincerely. The Holy Spirit Sword Technique and the Peerless Yang Sword were entrusted to Jin Lin by the Sword Saint!
Jin Lin could feel the persistence in the withered hand that was tightly gripping him.
"Good! I promise you."
The golden qilin was very straightforward. With two peerless treasures in front of him, there was no reason for the golden qilin not to be tempted.
Moreover, the conditions given by the Sword Saint were not harsh. If Jin Lin wanted to leave in the future, he could leave at any time.
"Then this old man will thank young friend Jin Lin!”
The old Sword Saint cupped his fists, and the Golden Qilin returned the greeting!
He could feel that the old Sword Saint wanted to protect Peerless City.
For the sake of Peerless City, he was willing to give up the honor of a Sword Saint to beg a junior like Jin Lin.
However, his vision was indeed correct. Every generation had its own talent, and the Golden Qilin would definitely be the strongest new star in the future.
It was so strong that it could shine in the entire starry sky. No one dared to compete with it!
