Soul Devouring Sword Master

Shaking his head, Lin Xiao stopped thinking about it. With his strength, there was no need to think about this kind of problem for the time being. Even if he knew that Mu Xiuyuan was a traitor and told others without proof, no one would believe him.

After all, Mu Xiuyuan is an elder of Immortal Sword Mountain. To reach this position, he must have a lot of connections. However, he is only a disciple who has joined Immortal Sword Mountain for a few months, so his words don't carry much weight at all.

"Go back and hand in the mission first!"

Lin Xiao searched the area of ​​the explosion, found the grey-robed corpse king's Najie, and then left here.

A few hours later, he returned to Leicheng and told Lei Gang about the news of clearing out the Xueluo Sect's stronghold.

"real?"

Lei Gang's face was full of surprise, "Did you really clean up the Xueluo Sect's lair?"

"That's right."

Lin Xiao nodded.

"Then, why are you the only one coming back, and where are the other four?"

Lei Gang was confused.

"Alas, several of them died."

Lin Xiao shook his head and sighed, with a look of sadness on his face. He had to pretend, otherwise he would be suspected. Naturally, he couldn't tell the truth because he was afraid that no one would believe it and it would cause trouble.

"Oh, thank you for your hard work. They all sacrificed their lives for our safety. Thank you very much for the help from Fairy Sword Mountain. I will discuss with other forces and we will provide 10% more resources for next year."

Lei Gang sighed, his face full of regret and respect.

"So, thank you very much. Since the task has been completed, I will leave first."

Lin Xiaodao.

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

Lei Gang said.

After walking out of Linjiang City, Lin Xiao disappeared into the distance under the watch of Lei Gang and others.

"Finally, the crisis has been resolved. Let us inform you that it is safe outside the city. But don't let everyone go out yet. Let a few people go out to explore the bottom first. After confirming that everything is correct, everyone can go out freely."

Lei Gang said.

"yes!"

----

After breaking through the Yuanshen realm and improving the Dragon Shadow Step, Lin Xiao's speed greatly increased, and he returned to Fairy Sword Mountain in just one moment.

When we arrived at the previous palace, there was still the old man behind the counter.

The old man was looking through the books carefully.

Lin Xiao walked over and said calmly, "Hand in the mission."

"Give me the token."

The old man said.

However, just when he put down the book and looked up to see Lin Xiao, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face, "You, are you back?"

"The elder smiled, shouldn't I come back?"

Lin Xiao smiled faintly, but there was a bit of coldness in the smile. As expected, this guy and Mu Xiuyuan were in the same group. The tasks given to him, as well as Xiao Ran and the others, were all arranged in advance, just to be outside. Get rid of yourself.

The other party definitely didn't expect that he could come back alive. After all, they had arranged several killing attempts and even used people from the Blood Luo Sect.

"I wonder if this old guy is also colluding with the Blood Luo Sect?"

Lin Xiao muttered in his heart, this is not good, maybe Mu Xiuyuan didn't tell this person, and he also found someone from the Blood Luo Sect.

"Haha, that's not what I meant. I didn't expect that this mission would be difficult for you to come back so early. With the strength of your team, I originally estimated that it might take longer for you to come back."

The old man laughed, covering up his expression for a moment, and then frowned, "No, there are not five people in your team, why are you alone?"

You know what you're asking, but you're pretending to be the same!

Lin Xiao sneered in his heart and sighed, with a look of sorrow on his face, "Several other senior brothers died at the hands of the Blood Luo Sect disciples during the execution of their missions. It's a shame that I am incompetent and can't save them."

"I see. Alas, when performing a mission, casualties are inevitable. Having you back alone is a blessing among misfortunes. They will be very pleased."

The old man also sighed.

In fact, he had no idea what was going on and was just pretending to be confused. The same was true for Lin Xiao. Both of them knew it tacitly and could not see through it.

"Elder, now, am I a core disciple?"

Lin Xiaodao.

"Wait for a while, your mission is more complicated. We will contact the forces at the mission point. Once they confirm that there are no traces of the Blood Luo Sect disciples and the surrounding area is safe, I will notify you at that time."

The old man said.

"Okay, this is my mission token."

Lin Xiao took out the token.

The old man took it, made some notes, and gave it back to Lin Dan.

Lin Xiao left the palace.

After Lin Xiao left, the old man frowned, "How could this happen? He actually... No, I have to tell Elder Mu about this as soon as possible!"
