As long as there are enough vests, the plot can't kill me
Chapter 154 Unexplained Debt
Many times, what is more infuriating than fearlessness is ignoring.
It's that nonchalant attitude, that tone that can easily trample on all your plans.
The man surnamed Yang was so angry at Lin Xiao that he vomited blood on the spot, but he did not get any sympathy from his companions, and the scene returned to its previous silence.
Everyone can say harsh words, but who says them is important.
"Ms. Lin, no matter what Brother Yang said, it was all impulsive. Please be merciful."
Time seemed to have gone back to a while ago, when Lin Xiao and Qian Jie and his group first met.
But compared to Miss Lin who had just appeared, after experiencing the trip to the Thunder Beast Clan’s territory, Wu Poyun knew very well what kind of power this person in front of him had.
As long as they have the intention, there is no need to do anything deliberately. These royal families who openly stand behind Miss Lin are a disaster that the Qian Realm cannot avoid.
They are powerful enough to destroy the aspirations of all cultivators in a world and trap people to death in a small world.
"Have mercy? How do you want me to have mercy on you this time?" Lin Xiao raised the sword in his hand and gently pointed it towards the opposite side.
"I……"
The tip of the sword, still bleeding, poured a basin of cold water on Wu Poyun's head.
He suddenly realized that he had unknowingly made another fatal mistake.
Ignoring the causes of the consequences and bothering others as a weak person seems to have become a habit and instinct.
Once this thought appeared, it took root in Wu Poyun's mind and could not be dispelled like a thick fog.
When did I start to become this kind of person, or have I always been like this?
He felt an inexplicable panic and couldn't help but think of his father's last moments, when he couldn't let go of the grief for a long time.
[Yun'er, it's not like that. Our Wu family shouldn't be like this... They are afraid, hahaha, afraid that we will produce another one...]
Wu Poyun still doesn’t understand what the second half of his father’s last words meant.
But he seemed to understand the first half of the sentence.
"Ms. Lin, Yang Ming cannot represent the Qianjie, at least not me. If I want you to let go of the future Wu family members, and people like Mu Ling who have no foundation and no reason, what price do I have to pay?"
Experience makes people grow.
The captain of the Qianjie foundation-building team finally understood today what his responsibilities were, and also learned the meaning of the word "price".
He can't change anything with his ability, but he can do something.
At least, do what you should do.
"Poyun, it's indeed a good name!"
Lin Xiao ignored the other party's transaction request, but commented on Wu Poyun's name with a smile.
Destroy the enemy's formation with such force that it is like seeing light breaking through clouds.
It's better to die on the battlefield than to step on the sword.
These two sentences are from the lines of a general in a popular Three Kingdoms game, and they sound extremely passionate.
The allusion comes from "Military and Political Essentials" written by Qi Jiguang, a famous general who fought against Japanese pirates in the Ming Dynasty.
At first, Lin Xiao did not associate the word "broken cloud" with it, but at this moment it made some sense to him.
"Senior, what do you think?"
The old immortal looked at Lin Xiao seriously, and couldn't help but admire the other party's vision and experience.
With his level of attainment and experience, he could get a general idea of Miss Lin's condition without even touching her bones.
A solid young girl easily opened up a generation gap with her peers. Is she probably the reincarnation of an old monster?
The Guardian of the Out-of-Bounds laughed secretly in his heart, looked at Wu Poyun who was still in a state of fear, and nodded in agreement.
"okay……"
"It's indeed a good name."
The old man's words were interrupted by a dark voice.
Afterwards, the old ghost, who had not been treated in any way and was covered in blood, slowly appeared in front of everyone.
"It's a good name, and it's a good child. We are just unlucky."
He emphasized the word "blessing", which makes people think deeply.
Lin Xiao turned his head calmly, without a trace of surprise on his face, and greeted in a calm tone.
"I've met senior."
This attitude is completely different from when he met the immortal.
Although Lao Gui would not care about these things, he still felt a little disappointed and realized a fact.
I am far inferior to my old friend.
"Ms. Lin, this deal should be done by the old man."
The natural but somewhat overbearing tone made Lin Xiao frown.
It wasn't that she thought there was anything wrong with the old man's attitude, but she felt vaguely that she had found the root of the problem.
With such a role model of shouldering everything, it is no wonder that young people below can live in ivory towers for a long time without the most fundamental sense of crisis in their hearts.
"Senior, you are wrong. I am used to eliminating all sources of risk and have never thought about making any transactions."
The old ghost's expression remained unchanged after hearing this, and he continued, "What if I say that as long as you let them go today and also let Qianjie go, I will cut off your connection with Qianjie as the guardian of the boundary wall?"
"Old ghost, you..."
When the bargaining chips were revealed, the country bumpkin Lin Xiao showed no reaction, but the old immortal next to him immediately jumped up and down.
Cause and effect is the fundamental reason why the virtual world binds our cultivators.
If the cause and effect were to be severed by the guardian of one world, no matter what Miss Lin had obtained in the Qian world, she would not have to repay it in the future.
The cost and consequences cannot be said to be light.
"You old fool, you don't need to say more. I know what I am doing."
"Okay, as long as you're happy."
With the interruption of another senior, Lin Xiao took advantage of this short buffer time and immediately grasped the key point.
"Senior, have you already seen that there is a causal relationship between you and me?"
"Yes, the cause and effect is not small. I think Miss Lin is a natural talent, and she will definitely not want to worry about such a small matter in the future."
Of course, Lao Gui didn't know the actual purpose of Lin Xiao asking this question, and readily admitted that he saw the causal line between the other party and Qian Jie, and used it to make a deal.
"Is that so?"
After getting the answer he wanted, Xiao remained expressionless, but in his heart he was experiencing the biggest storm of his life.
cause and effect……
It turned out to be the case.
The sect chooses to live in seclusion because it does not want to be too deeply involved with the worldly life, which would lead to major consequences.
My goodness, those bastards are planning to get something for free, right?
Damn it, isn’t there any guardian in the universe? Are we just going to stand there and watch?
"Ms. Lin, what do you think?"
Lin Xiao had too many questions in her mind, but the old ghost did not give her enough time.
"Senior, this deal is naturally the most beneficial to me, but I would like to ask you to think it over carefully and not act on impulse."
There is no other possibility for the source of the cause and effect between the Qian world and the old man.
If it were cut off by a single sword, Qianjie would suffer more than just a young emperor.
"consider?"
The old ghost smiled bitterly and straightened his back with difficulty.
No matter what the reason was for Miss Lin to give this warning, it proves that she is not the kind of person with low character and who acts recklessly.
Without much thought, the guardian of the Qian world seemed to have changed his personality and became extremely decisive.
He glanced at the dying Yang Ming with a bit of disgust, just wanting to resolve the matter as quickly as possible.
A mere Jindan stage junior could understand the truth. The meaning behind this far outweighs the reward of losing an emperor.
Perhaps the dry world has been unclean since a long time ago, and there are probably countless people like Miss Lin.
After all, Qianjie is Bai Zun’s hometown and the most special one among the eight virtual realms.
Although the madman is hateful and terrifying, he himself is one of the most evil geniuses, and later he became a big devil that made countless people tremble in fear.
Who can guarantee that such a person will not leave something behind in his birthplace?
"There's nothing to think about. If you do something wrong, you have to pay the price, whether it's me or them."
"Okay, since Senior is so determined, I have no reason not to agree."
Both parties recognized the other party's bargaining chips and the deal was reached.
Wu Poyun and Mu Ling witnessed the entire transaction process and found that the cloud of death hanging over everyone's heads had faded away, but they did not look relieved.
On the contrary, there is a sense of loss.
Especially Wu Poyun, when he saw the old ghost in blood-stained clothes raising his hand, his feeling of panic instantly reached its peak.
Swish!
"Edict!"
Cutting off the line of cause and effect is not as difficult as you think.
At least from Lin Xiao's point of view, he just heard the word "imperial" from the old senior's mouth, and then he was chopped by a hand knife in the air.
It is like a minimally invasive surgery, easy and painless.
"puff!"
But after the operation, the old man spurted blood from his mouth and collapsed uncontrollably, which showed that the truth was far from as simple as it seemed.
"Old ghost, sit down quickly, empty your mind, and don't think about anything."
The old man's face turned pale when he saw this, and he quickly pulled his old friend to an open space and helped him enter a state of meditation.
The Yaksha King and the Asura King on the side looked at each other and were equally quick to rescue.
"Thank you, two envoys."
The old man thanked him hastily, not daring to be distracted in the slightest, and devoted himself completely to the rescue.
As guardians of the virtual world, they are definitely familiar with the backlash of cause and effect.
He's done this before, more than once.
What the old immortal could never have expected was that all the backlash he had suffered in severing the cause and effect over the years, combined, was not as severe as what the old ghost had suffered this time.
Comparing people to each other makes people angry!
If there hadn't been this scene today, Qianjie would have waited until Miss Lin grew up safely to become a regional overlord, and then he would have obtained...
