Chapter 120: Netherworld 10
A hidden place in the Nether Abyss.
"Don't look so incredulous. I came to you because I need your help with something."
Lin Yixuan comforted
"You want revenge?"
Dongfang Batian asked with a frown.
Lin Yixuan shook his head and said.
"Tell me first, your relationship with Elder Ling."
(Isn’t it revenge? Shouldn’t he be here for revenge? Since he knows about my eldest brother, he will naturally know…)
Dongfang Batian hesitated for a while and said.
"Mr. Ling, his surname is Dongfang, his given name is Lingtian. Everyone respectfully calls him Mr. Ling, and I..."
"I see!"
Lin Yixuan interrupted Dongfang Batian and continued.
"I know that your Baibao Pavilion has encountered a huge trouble, so you want to use me to remove the seal of the 'Demon'. However, some unspeakable things happened during this period, so you need to obey my orders. And I can help you 'Baicao Pavilion' solve this trouble."
"You sound nice, but now that you've come to this 'Netherworld' and can't even leave, why should I believe your lies?"
Dongfang Batian said.
"I have this!"
Lin Yixuan took out the 'Seven Star Plate (Incomplete)'.
"This is??? The Seven Star Plate???"
Dongfang Batian's eyes were full of disbelief.
(I searched almost all over Longzhou Continent but couldn't find any information. I didn't expect it to be in the hands of this young man.)
"I have reached the Nascent Soul stage in such a short time. With my strength and this 'Seven Star Disk', I think you need to listen to my advice. After all, if you lose the method to remove the 'Devil of Heaven', I am your only hope."
Lin Yixuan said seriously.
Dongfang Batian fell silent.
(Indeed, time is running out!)
"It's okay. I know you have the means to contact the outside world. You can go ahead and contact them. I have plenty of time to wait for your reply."
Lin Yixuan said.
Dongfang Batian looked at Lin Yixuan in disbelief.
(How did this guy know? Never mind, I should contact them first.)
Dongfang Batian took out a disc-shaped object, which looked somewhat similar to the Seven-Star Disc.
Lin Yixuan looked at the compass with some confusion.
Dongfang Batian explained.
"This is something that imitates the Seven Star Disk, and it incorporates the power of the stars. It failed by chance and cannot be used for teleportation, but it can be used for long-distance communication. I have one here, and my brother, Elder Ling, also has one."
Soon, a sound came from the disc.
"Batian, is there any news about the demon?"
"Mr. Ling, it's me, Lin Yixuan. The matter of the Heavenly Demon is very complicated and can be said to have failed. But I can help you solve your problems, provided that you do as I say. Of course, you can refuse, and I won't embarrass you, but your troubles are probably imminent. As for whether I have the ability to do so, your brother knows it well!"
Lin Yixuan suddenly said.
The compass fell silent for a long, long time.
"Batian, is what little friend Lin said true?"
Dongfang Lingtian's voice asked from the compass.
"Yes."
Dongfang Batian responded.
"I understand! Batian, from now on, you will obey Master Lin's orders."
A woman's voice was heard within the sound.
"Yes, ma'am."
Dongfang Batian responded.
(It seems that the person Dongfang Batian calls Miss should be the person behind Ling Lao.)
Dongfang Batian put away the compass and asked.
"Mr. Lin, what do you need me to do?"
"I need you to get rid of your only Jindan formation master, and do it quietly."
Lin Yixuan said.
"This is not difficult. Can I ask why you did this? I remember that formation master should have no grudge against you."
Dongfang Batian asked.
"Well, for now, there is no hatred, but he will ruin my plan."
Lin Yixuan said.
"Actually, there is one thing I'm curious about. Why did you choose to trust me? Aren't you afraid that I might regret it?"
Dongfang Batian asked in confusion.
"This is a gamble. If you lose, you die. Only if you win, you are eligible to continue."
Lin Yixuan explained.
"I understand~" Dongfang Batian replied.
"In the coming time, more and more people will be dissatisfied with Li Wenxuan. By then, I hope you can find an opportunity to trick him out, and then we can kill him together, and then you can take his place."
Lin Yixuan said.
"Why not now?"
Dongfang Batian asked in confusion.
"The time has not come yet. Also, tell me where Wuchen is buried, and give me the 'Ten Thousand Year Blood Ginseng' and 'Wuchen's Relics'."
Lin Yixuan said.
Dongfang Batian took out the 'Ten Thousand Year Blood Ginseng' and 'Wu Chen's Relics' and gave them to Lin Yixuan, and described to Lin Yixuan the location where Wu Chen was buried.
Lin Yixuan took the 'Ten Thousand Year Blood Ginseng', and then took the 'Wu Chen's Relics' with both hands.
(It seems that I have to find time to return this relic.)
"Go back. When many people are dissatisfied with Li Wenxuan, you can trick him to the Skeleton Mountain. After everything is settled, I will tell you everything. At that time, I will also help the 'Baicao Pavilion' to solve your problems."
After Lin Yixuan finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Dongfang Batian looked at Lin Yixuan who suddenly disappeared with shock in his eyes.
(This is within the restrictions I set, and he just disappeared like that? It seems that cooperating with him may not be a bad thing!)
Somewhere outside the city, Lin Yixuan arrived at the location that Dongfang Batian mentioned.
Looking at the slightly raised mound of earth in front of him, all kinds of thoughts suddenly flooded into his mind. He used his spiritual sense to check Wu Chen's body, but found that there was nothing under the mound. Lin Yixuan frowned.
(What's going on? This is the correct location. According to the traces of soil and the comparison with the ones next to it, it has been about half a year. Did Dongfang Batian lie to me? But he has no reason to lie to me. What went wrong? Forget it. I won't care about it for now. Li Wenxuan's matter is more important. I can only ask Dongfang Batian to help me investigate it when the time comes.)
Lin Yixuan left the place where Wu Chen was buried and returned to the Mountain of Skeletons.
After a few days, the news of the death of the only Jindan formation master in the Nether Abyss spread throughout the town.
"Damn it, what happened? Why did he die suddenly? Batian, you have to find out everything for me. Don't miss any details. I suspect it was done by those guys. Shi Potian disappeared for so long, and no one knows where he went."
Li Wenxuan said angrily.
"Yes."
Dongfang Batian agreed and then disappeared on the spot.
Because Li Wenxuan had said before that everyone would be able to get out soon after a while, but now half a year has passed and there is still no news. Everyone has begun to suspect that Li Wenxuan is deceiving them, followed by the sudden death of the only Jindan formation master.
Everyone couldn't sit still anymore and asked Li Wenxuan to give a reasonable explanation.
In the bamboo forest a few days later.
"I think it might have been done by that guy from the Shadow Clan. After all, there are only a handful of people who can kill a Jindan formation master silently right under our noses."
Dongfang Batian analyzed.
"Damn it! I will make him pay the price! By the way, have you found out any information recently? Why hasn't the demon been released yet?"
Li Wenxuan asked.
"I don't know, but I found something very wrong. If we have time, we can go explore it together."
Dongfang Batian said with some embarrassment.
"Oh? Where is it? Tell me quickly."
Li Wenxuan said.
"It's the Skeleton Mountain outside the city. There's something strange about the spiritual energy there."
Dongfang Batian said.
"Strange? Does that mean there might be news about the demons among the demons?"
Li Wenxuan analyzed.
Dongfang Batian nodded and said nothing more.
"Let's go and have a look with me."
After Li Wenxuan finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot in an instant, and Dongfang Batian quickly followed.
(The fish has taken the bait, how should you respond?)
