At the beginning, there was a fake eunuch, holding a dragon whip and torturing the empress until she

"By the way, you just said that your grandfather has been arrested and taken to Ouyang's house, so what is his situation now?" Ouyang Hongtu changed the subject.

He was worried that Lin Chen came to his Ouyang family. After all, this incident was ultimately caused by him.

If Lin Chen was involved in this, he would feel guilty.

"Grandpa...well, I don't know what to say." Ouyang Boyun sighed and said bitterly: "Grandpa is probably dead now."

Ouyang Boyun explained tonight's events in detail, including the dismissal of Ouyang Haoshan and others, as well as Ouyang Hongfei and other core members of the Ouyang family.

Hearing the tragic situation of his children, Ouyang Hongtu roared angrily, his eyes were blood red, and he wanted to cut Ouyang Botao into pieces immediately!

"Lin Chen, don't worry! I will never let Ouyang Botao go unpunished. The debt he owes must be repaid tenfold!"

Ouyang Hongtu gritted his teeth and said.

Ouyang Boyun hesitated and said: "But, father, the strength of our Ouyang family is simply not comparable to that of the Ouyang family. We have no chance at all against the Ouyang family!"

He secretly cursed Ouyang Haokun for being that bastard. His son and daughter-in-law died because of Ouyang Botao's machinations, but even his parents were poisoned.

This hatred is simply irreconcilable. Even if the entire Ouyang family is killed, he will take revenge.

"Don't worry, we don't need to come forward in this matter! You just need to tell me the name of that person. I will find a way to contact him and ask him to come forward to solve the matter!"

Ouyang Hongtu shook his head, his face became solemn, and he said in a deep voice.

His heart was beating wildly, and he vaguely guessed Lin Chen's identity.

Now in the entire Xuanyuan Continent, the only one with the surname Lin can possess such strength is Lin Chen!

"His name is Lin Chen!" Ouyang Boyun hesitated and finally said.

"Lin Chen?"

Ouyang Hongtu frowned and muttered, and then said: "Hurry up and arrange a vehicle to take me back to the capital. I will personally deliver the 'Holy Spirit Stone' to Lord Longya's room!"

After saying that, he ignored Ouyang Boyun's expression and walked out directly.

Ouyang Boyun was stunned for a few seconds, his face was shocked, and then he showed a look of ecstasy!

"I should have guessed it a long time ago! Besides Lord Ryuga, who else in this world can have such terrifying strength? I should have thought that that person would be him! He must be Lord Ryuga!"

After muttering to himself for a while, his face became even more excited.

…

Xuanyuan Continent, Tiandao Sect.

It had been several days since Lin Chen left, and Tiandao Sect also welcomed a group of new disciples.

At this moment, a group of senior officials from Tiandao Sect were sitting in the meeting hall, discussing matters regarding the recruitment of new disciples.

The recruitment of new disciples this time was managed by the elders of Tiandao Sect, so Lin Chen did not participate in it, but practiced in seclusion.

He sat cross-legged in the training room, with ripples appearing on his body, and beside him, floating a transparent bead the size of a pigeon egg, exuding a lustrous luster.

This is the "Holy Spirit Stone" that Lin Chen got from Ouyang Boyun. He spent several days of hard work and finally got this thing.

According to Ouyang Boyun, as long as you take this thing, you can be promoted to the fifth level of extraordinary heaven, and then break through to the eighth level of extraordinary heaven.

However, this "Holy Spirit Stone" has a fatal flaw, that is, after taking it, you need to take one every three years, otherwise the medicinal properties will weaken.

If the medicine is too weak when you take it, it will not only be useless but harmful. Therefore, you must choose carefully, and you must take it before the extraordinary ninth heaven, so as not to cause damage easily.

Lin Chen thought for a while and decided to eat the "Holy Spirit Stone" when he was strong enough.

Therefore, during this period of time, he devoted all his attention to cultivation.

As for the cultivation level to break through to the fifth level of the extraordinary world, he is not in a hurry. According to his speculation, if he takes the "Holy Spirit Stone", he can achieve it in about twenty years at most.

"Master, why are you here?"

That night, Lin Chen suddenly noticed that someone had broken into his training room. When he opened his eyes, he saw the beautiful Liu Mengyue dressed in purple standing beside the bed.

"Are you planning to eat this 'Stone of the Holy Spirit'?"

When Liu Mengyue saw that Lin Chen had woken up, she stretched out her jade finger and flicked Lin Chen's forehead. Although she was a strong person in the extraordinary realm, she looked lively and cute like a naughty little girl at this moment.

Lin Chen rubbed his forehead, rolled his eyes and said, "Nonsense! Although this 'Stone of the Holy Spirit' is precious, it's not impossible to get it. Why waste it?"

Liu Mengyue stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Then what do we do with this 'Stone of the Holy Spirit'?"

"If you want it, I'll give it to you." Lin Chen shrugged and said casually.

Liu Mengyue looked surprised when she heard this.

She originally thought that Lin Chen had worked hard to get this thing, and it should be very precious, so she refused to hand it over. But when Lin Chen said it would be given to her, she didn't feel any joy at all, but felt a little flattered.

She said: "Master, are you really willing to give it to me? I'm not your apprentice? Besides, this thing is very precious to you. Aren't you afraid that I will take it away and run away?"

She looked at the "Holy Spirit Stone" suspended in the air, full of curiosity, not knowing what it was.

She had heard from her master that this energy was extremely pure and powerful. If absorbed, it might even be possible to directly advance to the eighth level of the extraordinary heaven.

"Silly girl, since I took it out, why would I care how much it is worth?" Lin Chen said with a smile.

Liu Mengyue's cheeks were slightly hot, and she didn't dare to look at Lin Chen's eyes, and said: "Master, thank you. I can't have this 'Holy Spirit Stone', I'll continue to help you find other materials!"

"Are you sure? This 'Holy Spirit Stone' is a rare alchemy material. Other forces are scrambling for it. Are you just refusing it? Didn't you always say that you want your alchemy skills to be improved?" Lin Chen teased.

Liu Mengyue pouted and said: "Master, then I have to live to use it. This thing is much more precious than any elixir. Besides, your alchemy skills are more than a hundred times stronger than mine. I am far behind you. What's the use of this 'Holy Spirit Stone'!"

"You said this thing is precious, so tell me, what exactly is it?"

Lin Chen said with a smile.

Liu Mengyue blinked and said, "Master, don't you know this 'Spirit Stone'? This thing is called 'Spirit Stone'. As the name suggests, it can increase the speed of cultivation. It also contains rich spiritual energy, which has a huge effect on cultivators."

"This 'Spirit Stone' is similar in shape to a crystal stone, but it is larger, milky white in color, soft and comfortable to the touch, just like mercury!"

After listening to this, Lin Chen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Ouyang Boyun said that this thing was very rare and had to be taken before the sixth level of the extraordinary.

He estimated that this "Spirit Stone" was probably like an ordinary diamond.

However, for him, this was of no use.

After all, he could quickly improve his cultivation by devouring the power of the soul, and he didn't need to rely on the "Spirit Stone". What he needed now was to break through to the seventh level of the extraordinary as soon as possible, and then try to impact the fourth level of the golden body!

"Okay, I'll keep this thing, you go and do your own thing!" Lin Chen waved his hand.

Liu Mengyue said "oh" and was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, stopped and said to Lin Chen: "Master, I have some bad news to tell you!"

"What bad news?" Lin Chen asked in confusion.

Liu Mengyue said: "Master, do you still remember what I told you at the beginning, that my biological parents were captured by a mysterious person? Over the years, I have sent people to look for their traces, but there is no clue at all."

"I heard about that incident, but I didn't take it to heart. What, could it be that you found something?" Lin Chen said.

He was also a little curious in his heart, where Liu Mengyue's biological parents were taken after he left.

Liu Mengyue nodded, frowned and said: "Yes, Master, I have found some clues over the years."

"Tell me about it." Lin Chen became interested.

Liu Mengyue pondered for a moment and said slowly: "I suspect that my parents were taken to Tianluo Palace."

"Tianluo Palace?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and his heart skipped a beat. "What kind of power is Tianluo Palace?"

He had never heard of this name.

Liu Mengyue shook his head and said: "Tianluo Palace is an ancient country-level organization independent of the imperial family. There is no introduction in my information, but I guess they should have the existence of the extraordinary nine-layer sky. There may even be a super strong man with a golden body nine turns!"

"Extraordinary nine-layer sky?" Lin Chen's pupils shrank slightly.

The strong man of the extraordinary nine-layer sky is like a god to him now, and he can't match it at all.

And the existence of the golden body nine turns, that is completely beyond his cognition. He didn't even see the other party's appearance clearly, and he was defeated!

"Yeah." Liu Mengyue nodded.

Lin Chen frowned and said, "Why did the people from Tianluo Palace take your parents away? Is there any other reason behind this?"

"I don't know the specific reason. I only know that before the people from Tianluo Palace took my parents away, they said someone was looking for me and asked me to never go home. As for the purpose of asking me not to go home, they didn't say it clearly. I guess they might want to protect me." Liu Mengyue said.

"To protect you?" Lin Chen was stunned.

At this time, Liu Mengyue suddenly came closer, staring at Lin Chen, her beautiful peach eyes flashing with cunning light, and said:

"Hehe, Master, do you think those people from Tianluo Palace are interested in you, so they want me not to go home?"

Lin Chen was immediately at a loss for words and said, "Little girl, I am your master, don't let your imagination run wild! Get out of here quickly, don't delay my rest!"

"Master! You are so annoying, you are becoming less and less like a master, I am a girl, how can you be so mean to me!"

"If you don't go out, it means you are peeping at Master taking a bath!"

"Ah... I didn't see anything, Master, take a bath!"

...

In the middle of the night, the room became quiet.

On the bed, Lin Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, recalling what happened in the past two days in his mind.

After entering the third level of "Xiaoyaoyou", Lin Chen felt that his actual combat ability became more terrifying.

Especially, he was more familiar with the moves and skills of various sects.

At this moment, he practiced the skills of the "Meteoric Codex", and various sword techniques, boxing techniques and other skills emerged in his mind. Every movement seemed to come alive as he practiced it in his mind.

Although these moves are constantly changing, they seem to have been prepared for a long time and work perfectly with each other.

Lin Chen closed his eyes and blended into the surrounding space, as if he was the master of this space and he was everything in this space.

He seemed to have turned into a sculpture, his figure isolated from the world.

"Rumble--"

At this moment, Lin Chen's ears twitched slightly and he noticed something. He opened his eyes suddenly and punched the left side with his right palm.

In an instant, black mist surged out from Lin Chen's body, and the black mist gathered into black flames. Driven by the wind of his palm, it condensed into a ferocious black dragon, and it rushed to the left with its fangs and claws!

"boom!"

With a muffled sound, the wall of the room cracked, and a black figure appeared next to the window sill, looking at Lin Chen with a horrified expression!

Lin Chen shouted coldly: "Who is it, get out of here! He is hiding in the corner, what kind of hero is he!"

"Ha ha!"

Hearing this, the man laughed and said: "A heroic man? He is worthy of being able to destroy the Xuexiao Sect. This vigilance is really powerful!"

His words were sinister, like a poisonous snake spitting out messages, which made people's hair stand on end.

This man was thin, wearing a black robe, with hair hanging loosely on his shoulders. He was ugly, with sunken eyes, and the bridge of his nose was sunk into the skin, giving him a sickly look.

"Who are you and why are you in my yard?" Lin Chen asked with a frown, having a vague hunch in his heart that this person's identity may be related to the Blood Xiao Sect.

The thin man said: "My name is Zhao Desheng."

Lin Chen's face darkened slightly, and he said in a cold voice: "Are you a remnant of the Blood Xiao Sect?"

Zhao Desheng nodded and said: "Yes, I am indeed a remnant of the Blood Xiao Sect."

There was a look of madness on his face: "The Blood Sky Sect is an extremely weird and ridiculously powerful sect. It is said that thousands of years ago, it once led a group of powerful monsters and became kings and hegemons in the imperial capital, even including the royal family. Don’t dare to provoke me easily!”

"However, those monsters were eventually killed, and only a few escaped, including my father! My father was the only one who escaped alive!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Desheng's face was filled with hatred and resentment, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Those beasts were so cruel and bloodthirsty! They made the imperial capital a mess, causing countless casualties. Finally, the Royal Alliance sent out troops to suppress those damn monsters!"

"As a result, too many people died in that battle. As a result, many high-level officials in the Royal Alliance also suffered misfortunes and died in that battle."

"The royal alliance collapsed completely, and the palace's defense system also failed. And my father took the opportunity to seize control of the palace!"

Lin Chen didn't interrupt and let him tell the history of the Blood Xiao Sect. He was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that this extremely evil sect was destroyed thousands of years ago, and the royal family was also involved in this catastrophe. , it’s really scary!

"What happened next?" Lin Chen asked.

Zhao Desheng said: "Later, my grandfather became the emperor, and my father became an eunuch. But the emperor at that time died suddenly, and his body rotted and died on the bed. After my father became the emperor, we Then he moved to Kunlun Sect."

"However, the royal family is still quite wary of our Zhao royal family. After all, they are worried about my father usurping the throne, but my father disdains such things. Therefore, even if we moved to the Kunlun Sect, we were still ostracized by the royal family. "

Lin Chen frowned and said, "Then why are you lurking on my roof tonight to peek? Could it be that you want to assassinate me?"

His expression turned cold, "Is it possible that you know me?"

"Hahaha! I know you? You think too highly of yourself, and you don't even take a look in the mirror. You are a loser who has just stepped into the transcendent realm. Are you worthy of my assassination?"

Zhao Desheng sneered and said: "Do you think I am a fool? If I want to kill you, there is no need to use such despicable and dirty tricks! I just think that killing you, a waste that transcends the seventh heaven, is not challenging at all. I might as well go Kill a few eighth-grade extraordinary ones!"

After saying that, he added: "Of course, besides killing you, I have other purposes, so don't worry, I will never kill you!"

Lin Chen frowned.

He didn't doubt that this person didn't want to kill him, but he was a little confused, what was the other person's purpose?

Logically speaking, he and the Blood Xiao Sect have sworn hatred. He should be happy to see him die. Why doesn't he want to kill him?

"Since you are not here to kill me, then who are you? Why are you in my yard?"

Lin Chen continued to ask, while staring at the man in front of him warily.

This man's strength was much stronger than the Hong Tianxing he met before, but that was all.

In his opinion, this person is nothing to worry about. If the other person really wants to kill him, he will never be able to escape.

When Zhao Desheng heard Lin Chen's inquiry, his face became solemn and he said seriously: "Lin Chen, I came to you to tell you something important. I hope you agree to help, otherwise, I will be in danger!"

"I don't know what the important thing is in your mouth. If it is a threat or exchange, I advise you not to waste your breath. Because, no matter what the cost, even if you die, I will never agree to you!"

Lin Chen spoke firmly and did not let go at all.

"No no! This is definitely not what I want to talk to you about!"

Zhao Desheng shook his head, sighed and said: "Lin Chen, you have already killed the Holy Envoy of the Blood Xiao Sect, don't you think it is not enough trouble? Do you really want to fight the Blood Xiao Sect to the death?"

"The Holy Envoy of the Blood Xiao Sect?" Lin Chen was stunned for a moment. He knew that the Holy Envoy of the Blood Xiao Sect was named Zhao Yunfan, but he did not kill Zhao Yunfan, but threw him directly to the Blood Xiao Sect.

Could it be that this person was avenging Zhao Yunfan?

However, Zhao Yunfan pretended to join the Blood Xiao Sect and did not really join the Blood Xiao Sect. What qualifications does he have for revenge?

What's more, even if it's revenge, the other party shouldn't lurk on your roof and find a way to sneak attack, right?

At this time, Zhao Desheng continued: "Lin Chen, although our Zhao family and the Blood Xiao Sect have some conflicts, they are not enemies. We are partners."

Lin Chen frowned and said: "What do you mean? Why should we cooperate?" Zhao Desheng said: "The Blood Xiao Sect is a group of evil and shameless guys. They want to use the power of our Zhao family to eradicate dissidents. Not long ago, the Blood Xiao Sect sent a The envoy went to the Zhao family and expressed his willingness to cooperate with the Zhao family. Not only did he no longer pursue our Zhao family,

The betrayal of the Blood Xiao Sect will also help us improve the strength of the Zhao family, making the Zhao family more powerful, and may even become a member of the sect affiliated with the Kunlun Sect. "

When Lin Chen heard this, he said disdainfully: "What do you think their purpose is for doing this? Do they really think that others are fools?"

"I know you think the people of the Blood Cloud Sect have bad intentions."

Zhao Desheng shook his head, "I think so too."

Lin Chen's face was startled: "Oh? What do you mean?"

"I mean, they're not bad people."

Zhao Desheng said mysteriously: "I guess the Blood Xiao Sect did this because of you!"

"Because of me?" Lin Chen frowned.
