At this moment, Lin Yong's body was trembling. This was not fear or worry, but excitement. It was like a traveler who was about to die of thirst in the desert suddenly found an oasis. The ecstasy in his heart was difficult to contain.
It was hard to imagine what would happen in the future if he couldn't complete the task given by Linlong.
Although Lin Yong was also surnamed Lin, he was completely different from Linlong. Linlong was a direct descendant. As for him, he was just a servant. He did not have any Lin family bloodline at all. Even this surname was bestowed by the main family.
In terms of status, even Lin Xun was countless times nobler than him. After all, no matter what, Lin Xun was still his adopted son.
After the excitement, Lin Yong's face revealed a trace of malevolence, and he laughed wildly in his heart,""There's always a way out. Lin Xun, I really have to thank you. You're also unlucky. You didn't take the path to heaven, but you came to hell!
Only one of us can survive. You humiliated me in front of the Hall of Techniques. In addition, my future is still alive. I can only use you as a scapegoat. You can go in peace.”
Speaking of this, Lin Yong did not reflect on how abominable his previous behavior was. He always blamed others for his mistakes.
As for Lin Xun, he had noticed Lin Yong as soon as he entered Qingyun Town, especially when he saw the look in Lin Yong's eyes that seemed to want to eat him up."I didn't expect you to come out. Lin Yang is probably getting a little impatient. You're here to accompany him to hell.”
However, they were still in Qingyun Town, and there were countless residents coming and going. If he were to snatch it by force, there would be too many witnesses. Moreover, he could not let Lin Xun know who had the secret manual. He could only steal it.
In fact, Lin Yong didn't mind whatever method he used. After all, Lin Xun had already appeared. At least he had a target. At the same time, he was full of confidence. So what if Lin Xun could cultivate? He had already reached the tempered body fourth stage, and was not something that Lin Xun, who had just started cultivating, could resist.
Lin Xun was also in a dilemma. Although he really wanted to kill the other party now, he could not expose himself because he really had no way to obtain martial arts manuals after leaving the Lin family. Therefore, he could only hope to find an opportunity.
The two of them looked at each other and then brushed past each other. It could be said that both of them had their own thoughts, but their goal was surprisingly the same, which was to hope that the other party would die.
Unknowingly, it was already late at night.
The night was particularly bleak. Even the bright moonlight was blocked by the dark clouds, instantly turning the entire Qingyun Town pitch-black. Only the wealthy families 'courtyards had light.
"Hehehe, it's a dark and windy night.”In a remote room, Linlong changed into a set of black clothes and prepared to steal the secret manual.
Lin Xun's residence was rather remote. This was also his own choice. In any case, his presence in the family was rather low. It was good to stay away from the crowd. Even the patrolling guards were too lazy to come here. As long as nothing big happened, this place would not attract attention.
Therefore, Lin Yong's actions were quite bold. Not long after, he arrived at the dilapidated door and carefully peeked inside. However, before he could check clearly, a voice suddenly sounded in his ear,"Aren't you coming in?"
Lin Yong was like a frightened bird. His muscles tensed up instantly and he jumped back. The door opened, and he saw Lin Xun sitting cross-legged in the room. A wooden sword was placed on his lap, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
" I've been discovered " was the only thought in Lin Yong's mind. However, not only did he not run away, but he also revealed a ruthless expression. It was because it would be even more difficult for him to come back and steal it if he retreated now. It was better to change it to a robbery and directly pull out the sword that he carried with him.
Looking at the cold light that flashed over, Lin Xun was not worried at all. Instead, he was filled with excitement. The last time he killed Lin Yang, the main effect was the first sword attack he had used in his life. It contained too much essence, energy, and spirit. It was as powerful as a Sword Draw. The other party did not have any resistance at all and was instantly killed in one move. In the end, he did not gain any combat experience.
Today, there was an opponent that he could use to train himself. He held the black wooden sword and fought with Lin Yong in front of him.
When the wooden sword came into contact with the iron sword, there was only a dull sound, but there was no sign of it being broken. This made Lin Yong's eyes flash with deep surprise, because in his heart, Lin Xun had only just been able to cultivate, and he was already at the fourth layer of Body Tempering.
Although the sword was blocked, Lin Yong wasn't worried at all, because it was just a casual attack, and it wasn't a big deal if he could take it. However, his attitude was a little serious,"I didn't expect you to be able to withstand my casual sword. Then you have to be careful from now on.”
After saying that, he directly used the basic sword technique and swung his sword forward again. However, Lin Xun looked at the somewhat crude sword technique and sneered. Every sword could skillfully hit the opponent's flaw. No matter how powerful he was, it was useless.
In a short time, the two of them had already exchanged several blows. Only the sound of sword dancing could be heard in the small courtyard.
As time passed, fear gradually grew in Lin Yong's heart. He really didn't expect Lin Xun to become so strong in just a few days. At the same time, his heart was filled with jealousy and ruthlessness.
If Lin Yong only wanted to steal the secret manual to frame him, he didn't want to do it now. Instead, he was inclined to kill Lin Xun tonight. Even if there was a danger of being exposed, he didn't care.
Because if he continued to follow this trend, it would not be long before Lin Xun could even surpass him. When he thought of how he had bullied the other party in the past, he could not help but feel flustered.
Lin Xun noticed the change in his opponent at the first moment. Although he could still find the flaws in the sword technique, his speed could not keep up, and his strength was also quite lacking. The pressure was getting greater and greater.
This made Lin Xun frown slightly. At the same time, he sighed in his heart. In this world, although martial arts techniques were very important, the most important thing was still one's own realm. If one reached the realm of one's strength defeating ten, no matter how exquisite the technique was, it would be useless.
However, at this moment, when Lin Yong saw that the other party could still force the Zhao family, he was angry and angry. It seems that I have to treat you as a threat. I can't hide it anymore."A gentle breeze blows."
The Fine Steel Sword instantly turned into a dazzling cold light and stabbed out. It was sharp and elegant, accompanied by waves of sword wind. It was obvious that this was the << Breeze Sword Technique >> in the Technique Hall. Lin Xun still had some impression of this move because it was the first move of the << Breeze Sword Technique >>.
That made sense. After all, there were only two sword techniques in the Lin family's cultivation technique hall. The Crisp Sword Technique was basically ignored, so the rest should be the Gentle Wind Sword Technique.
" Good timing." Sensing the threat of this sword, Lin Xun's eyes flickered with a pleasantly surprised light. This was because he felt the hair on his body stand on end, especially when there was a kind of power that wanted to burst out from his body.
"No wonder it is said that the best time to temper oneself is to wander between life and death. Under this move, I even feel like I'm about to break through.”Lin Xun sighed inwardly.
However, he wasn't afraid at all. He even had a feeling of eagerness to give it a try. Previously, when he fought against Lin Yong, he had only used basic sword techniques. Now, he could test the results of the past half a month.
Lin Xun turned his body to the side and turned his right hand. The wooden sword followed his movements and used the second move of the " Cross Sword Technique ", Sundering the Four Seas.
Lin Yong's eyes were filled with surprise. He really didn't expect that Lin Xun had also successfully cultivated a low-class martial technique of the Yellow Class. However, he didn't recognize this move. After all, no one in the family had successfully cultivated the Cross Sword Technique.
In a flash, he could only dodge in a hurry. The wooden sword and the iron sword collided, and even emitted traces of fire.
However, under this sword, Lin Yong's left arm was cut open. If he had been a little slower, he would have lost his entire arm.
This was also because it was Lin Xun's first time officially fighting an enemy. Although he was proficient in martial arts, he did not have much experience in fighting enemies and was prone to making mistakes. It was precisely because of this that Lin Xun had been fighting with his opponent.
Otherwise, he would have killed his opponent immediately. After all, Lin Yong had underestimated his opponent in the early stages. In addition, his sword technique had many flaws. If he had attacked at that time, he would have definitely defeated his opponent in one move.
Lin Yong didn't know what Lin Xun was thinking, nor did he think that he was just a whetstone. Instead, his scalp went numb."When did Lin Xun become so strong? His sword art is also so superb?”
However, his gaze was ruthless. It had already reached the point where it was either you die or I die. Those who could show mercy immediately raised their iron swords.
"Storm."
This was the most powerful move in the Clear Wind Sword Technique, and it was also the main manifestation of its characteristics. It was fast, and it gave off attacks like a storm, causing the enemy to die before they could react.
It could be said that Lin Xun saw countless flaws in Lin Yong's move. He didn't even use the Crisp Sword Technique. With just a light stab, he forced Lin Yong to stop.
Unless he had the thought of perishing together, he would definitely die if he continued.
"Looks like I should send you on your way. You can't give me any more pressure. Lin Yang is still waiting for you downstairs!”Feeling Lin Yong's repetitive routine, Lin Xun was a little bored. After all, he wanted to sharpen himself, but there was no pressure at all.
" What?" Lin Yong's eyes narrowed." Impossible! You can't be this strong!"”
However, the truth was just that cruel. After Lin Xun said this, his hands moved much faster, and then a light flashed in the dark night.
"The first move of the vertical sword technique, one blade takes life."
When he looked again, Lin Yong was already dead. Only Lin Xun's cold figure was left on the spot, which looked particularly cold against the night sky.
After a long while, he heard a faint voice."You are the second."
