Chapter 321: Tian Sa Dao Ren

However, in the days that followed, neither of them returned, and Liu Shangren continued to send people to monitor their cave dwellings.

Today, when he saw Lin Qing and Ling Xueqing coming to Qianyun Cave, he couldn't help but feel strange. Why would a Gold Core cultivator like Lin Qing come to his Qianyun Cave for no reason? Moreover, the two of them entered Ling Fellow Daoist's cave dwelling, which made him even more suspicious.

As for Liu Shangren himself, he didn't have any intention of dealing with Lin Qing. He would leave that to the person with the talisman.

Inside the cave dwelling, Ling Xueqing quickly finished packing up and left with Lin Qing.

In fact, if the octopus demon hadn't appeared earlier, after Lin Qing killed Fellow Daoists Zhao Wang and Zhao Wang, Ling Xueqing would definitely have secretly returned to Qianyun Cave and then left with her belongings, without even returning.

But now that Lin Qing was here, she didn't worry about this. After all, as far as she knew, Fellow Daoists Zhao Wang and Zhao Wang had some other friends, but they were all at the Purple Mansion cultivation level. Even if they were discovered, it wouldn't be a big deal.

"Husband, let's go." Ling Xueqing said.

Lin Qing smiled at Ling Xueqing, then controlled his magic treasure and flew directly into the sky above the cave dwelling.

Just now, Lin Qing had been thinking and realized that Liu Shangren probably had some ulterior motives. After all, when he killed Fellow Daoists Zhao Wang and Zhao Wang from Qianyun Cave, although they were both independent cultivators, they must have had some connections to reach the Purple Mansion level. It was not safe to stay here.

As for where to go next, Lin Qing had already thought about it.

He would directly return to Zhao Country with Ling Xueqing, then focus on cultivating and nurturing his magic treasure, further enhancing his own strength.

He was currently 276 years old, still having nearly half of his lifespan left before reaching the 540-year lifespan of Gold Core. Moreover, he had the Purple Jade Peach. In Lin Qing's mind, it wouldn't be too late to come out after reaching the mid or late stage of Gold Core.

By then, not only would his cultivation level have improved, but with the Goldfinger, his Primordial Spirit and physique would far surpass cultivators of the same level. At that time, there would be nowhere he couldn't go in Yunzhou.

But for now, although his strength was not weak, there were cultivators at the mid-stage of Gold Core in Yunzhou. He was unfamiliar with the place, so it would be better to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Flying away directly from Qianyun Cave, Lin Qing quickly flew towards the direction of Shangyunzhou.

However, less than half an hour later, Lin Qing's face turned cold. There was someone following him and Ling Xueqing from behind, and this person was also a Gold Core cultivator, with a speed no slower than his.

"Husband, what's wrong?" Ling Xueqing asked with concern when she saw Lin Qing stop.

"It's nothing. If there's a conflict later, hide behind me." Lin Qing instructed. It was impossible to avoid it now. If they really fought, he was not afraid.

The Purple Golden Toad that had been perched on his shoulder also sensed something and looked towards the back with its purple-golden body.

"Oh, Fellow Daoist looks unfamiliar. It seems like I've never seen you before. Could it be that you're a newly promoted Gold Core cultivator or someone from another place?" The Gold Core cultivator behind them quickly caught up and, upon seeing Lin Qing, exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Qing, on the other hand, was shocked when he looked at this Gold Core cultivator. Not only was his strength almost at the mid-stage of Gold Core, but his magic treasure also seemed extremely powerful.

He clearly had a Gold Core, but he looked like a burly man from the mortal world, with a bare chest and a thick beard on his face. He was not well-groomed. There was also a string of black beads hanging from his chest, and a huge triangular trident was at his feet, its body bright red, giving off a strange aura.

"What Fellow Daoist said is correct. I am indeed a newly promoted Gold Core cultivator." Lin Qing spoke, only mentioning that he was a newly promoted Gold Core cultivator without revealing where he came from.

"Newly emerged Gold Core? No wonder I haven't seen you before. But today, Tian Sa Dao Ren, I have no intention of making things difficult for you. That Liu kid told me that you might know the killer who murdered my nephew, Zhao Zi. Do you know?" The Gold Core named Tian Sa Dao Ren asked.

Lin Qing sighed inwardly, realizing that she couldn't escape this situation.

Looking at Tian Sa Dao Ren, although he was only questioning and his tone was uncertain, Lin Qing knew that he had probably set his sights on her.

With determination, Lin Qing didn't hide anything.

"If you're talking about Fellow Daoist Zhao from Qianyun Cave, not only do I know the person who killed him, but I am also very familiar with them," Lin Qing said.

"Oh, quickly tell me. He dared to kill my nephew. I will definitely catch him, flay his skin, and refine his soul, so that he will never be reincarnated. Who is it? Tell me!" Tian Sa Dao Ren seemed to genuinely not understand the meaning behind Lin Qing's words. At this moment, he showed a sense of urgency and pressed Lin Qing for answers.

Lin Qing sneered, casting a water shield on herself and Ling Xueqing.

"Fellow Daoist, it's none other than me," Lin Qing shouted.

Tian Sa Dao Ren's expression immediately changed from anxious to mocking. He said unexpectedly, "I didn't expect you to actually admit it. That makes me appreciate you a bit more. There is a cause for every grievance, and a debtor for every debt. You are much stronger than those who dare not take responsibility."

"You may not know," the trident under Tian Sa Dao Ren's feet floated in front of him, "when I saw you, I had already realized that you were the one who killed my nephew. If you didn't dare admit it, I would have killed you and tortured you in various ways. But since you admitted it, rest assured, all you need to do is offer your life. I don't usually torture those who dare to take responsibility. If you don't believe me, you can inquire about the reputation of Tian Sa Dao Ren."

"Husband, this is a notorious villain in our Zhongyun Province. He is powerful and enjoys killing cultivators. Please be careful," Ling Xueqing said anxiously.

Lin Qing nodded. It seemed that a deadly battle was inevitable today.

"Beauty, rest assured, I am extremely gentle with beautiful women." Tian Sa Dao Ren glanced at Ling Xueqing and smirked, speaking up.

"Watch my sword!" Lin Qing commanded the Shanshui Pearl, releasing only one sword. Although there was only one, its power was much stronger than if it had been dispersed.

"Hmm, a water-attribute sword? Quite interesting," Tian Sa Dao Ren's gaze froze when he saw Lin Qing's water sword, saying something unexpected.

But he was skilled in combat techniques. At this moment, the fire cloud trident in front of him moved, instantly spewing out a red mist. The water sword entered the mist and disappeared in no time.

"It's only because of the water attribute that I had to put in a bit more effort. Otherwise, your water sword would have dissipated upon contact with my blood mist," Tian Sa Dao Ren explained, seemingly kind-hearted, to Lin Qing after neutralizing the water sword.

However, Lin Qing knew that this was his extreme confidence in his own strength. Thinking of this, Lin Qing sat cross-legged, preparing to condense the water sphere for the second time. She knew that facing such an advanced Gold Core who was also powerful, this was the only way she could harm him.

"Hmph!" Seeing that Lin Qing was still making a move, although he was confident in his own strength, Tian Sa Dao Ren was still cautious. At this moment, he raised his fire cloud trident and appeared directly in front of Lin Qing.
