C1241 Cues
In the blink of an eye, Lin Long and the rest surrounded the three of them.
"Who are you people?" Seeing this situation, one of the three people couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Lin Long did not waste time speaking with him, he directly struck out with his palm towards the man, he could tell that he was the strongest amongst the three.
However, the three of them were all masked, so it was hard to tell what they looked like.
Lin Long did not only activate his palm energy, he also used his auriferous fire s and Ice Spirit Fire.
His idea was very simple, he was to take these people down as quickly as possible.
What Lin Long did not expect was that the person who spoke seemed to have noticed Lin Long's strength and immediately retreated, allowing the other two people to receive the palm strike from Lin Long.
But how could that person avoid the attack? Seeing that, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest immediately went forward to face it.
Facing Lin Long's palm strength, the two of them immediately activated the profound energy in their own bodies. One of them punched towards Lin Long while the other smashed towards him with his palm.
"Bam!"
Qi-Storing, these two people were directly forced to retreat. This kind of situation caused the two of them to be shocked, they did not expect that even after combining their power, they would still not be Lin Long's match.
As for Lin Long, he did not even give the two of them time to catch their breath, and attacked with his palm.
This time, other than the auriferous fire and the Ice Spirit Fire, he also used the Lotus Heart Purple Flame.
The two of them anxiously tried to strike again, but how could they possibly withstand Lin Long's attack this time? They were directly sent flying by Lin Long's palm.
With this palm, the two of them were severely injured, and immediately, Lin Long walked towards them.
He was prepared to ask the other party about the secrets of the Archaeopterygium.
However, his expression quickly changed because he noticed that something wasn't right with these two people.
"This is bad!" Very quickly, he screamed in his heart, and then he immediately rushed over, but it was already too late, the two of them were already dead, Lin Long could see that they died by severing their own heart veins.
With these two dead, there would only be one more person left. If this person were to die again, then the clues might just end like that.
Thus, Lin Long immediately became cautious.
The other person was currently being attacked from all sides by Huo Zhengcheng and the rest, and looked like he could be defeated at any time.
If he had the chance, he would probably snap his own heart veins like the other two, so Lin Long did not give him the chance, and directly struck towards him with his palm.
Lin Long's grip on the power was just right, and directly knocked him out.
Seeing that the other two had clearly perished, how could Huo Zhengcheng and the rest not know what was going on? They could not help but heave a sigh of relief, because the last person was already unconscious.
immediately walked forward after fainting, he was prepared to place a few restrictions on the opponent's body, so that he would not be able to break his own heart veins before the opponent would wake up.
But, right at this time, a sharp and ear-piercing voice came out from the left side, amidst which, "Pu pu" sounds suddenly sounded out beside Lin Long and the rest's ears, following that, the chest of the person on the ground started bleeding.
It was obvious that someone had used the Seven Rose Styles to kill the last person.
Lin Long frowned, and at the same time that he turned to look at the direction of the voice, his figure had already shot out.
The three of them were already dead. If he did not catch the person behind the assassination attempt, then the clue would really be broken.
Lin Long immediately locked onto his opponent, who was also dressed in black.
What surprised Lin Long was that the other party was not slow. However, no matter how fast he was, he was not faster than Lin Long.
However, Lin Long was a little worried, because the other party was currently fleeing into the city. If he was unable to catch up with the other party during this period of time and allowed him to escape into the city, it would be troublesome, as the other party might be able to escape safely like last time.
Seeing his figure, Lin Long did not hesitate, and suddenly struck out with his palm.
After that, an ear-piercing sound rang out in the air, followed by a "pu pu pu" sound. Seven streams of blood appeared on the man's back, and he fell straight down.
Impressively, it was Lin Long who had used his own methods to heal him, injuring him with the Rose Seven Styles.
Afraid that the other party would kill him by severing his own heart veins, Lin Long once again struck out with his palm, striking the other party who was already injured to the point of fainting.
Then, with a flash, Lin Long arrived beside the man. Following that, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest all rushed over.
"Young master, you actually know such a strange assassination skill." Walking to Lin Long's side, Huo Zhengcheng could not help but exclaim.
It wasn't just him, the others were the same.
"Yes." Lin Long nodded his head, and then extended his hand towards the man's mask.
This was an old man in his fifties, Lin Long was sure that he had never seen him before.
But he was sure that the other party was the person that killed Shi Qin.
"Manor Lord Zhou, is that the person who fought over the secret manual with you?" After that, Lin Long turned to the Blood Villa Master who had just rushed over.
"From the looks of it, he should be the person who fought over the secret manual with me back then." Villa Head Zhou nodded.
"Oh." Lin Long nodded.
He then searched the body of the person, but didn't find anything useful to prove his identity, even if it was the dead players.
Frowning, Lin Long directly placed a few restrictions on the man's body, and only after doing so did he wake him up.
When the restrictions activated, the man began to plead to Lin Long for mercy after torturing him.
"Are you someone from the Archaeopterygium?" Lin Long said coldly.
"Reporting to Young Noble, I am an elder of Archaeopterygium, my name is Fu Sheng." The other party answered honestly.
"You also killed Shi Qin from before?" Lin Long asked again. Although he guessed that it was the other party, he still had to confirm.
"I killed him."
"Then was it your order to capture Li Muling previously? Where is Li Muling now, and why did your Archaeopterygium capture so many women?" Lin Long asked repeatedly.
"I was indeed the one who ordered Shi Qin to arrest him, but I don't know if she will capture Miss Li Muling, as for us …"
Before the other party could finish speaking, Lin Long interrupted him and said, "What, you don't know if Shi Qin took Li Muling or not?"
"Reporting to Young Master, I really don't know, because sometimes I'm not nearby even when Shi Qin catches people." the man said.
Hearing his words, Huo Zhengcheng and the rest could not help but look at each other in dismay.
Fu Sheng continued, "The Eastern Elder in charge of this matter in the Archaeopterygium asked us about this matter several times today, but none of us knew whether Miss Li Muling had been captured in the Archaeopterygium or not."
"Could it be that Shi Qin did not send Miss Mu Ling to the Archaeopterygium after she took her?" Huo Zhengcheng could not help but ask.
"Generally speaking, that is not the case. I think that the reason behind this is because after Shi Qin captured Lady Mu Ling and entered Archaeopterygium, she was taken away by someone before she could even record anything." Fu Sheng said.
He paused for a moment before continuing, "In our Archaeopterygium, there is only one person who can do this."1
"Could it be your Sect Leader, Hu Yanming?" Huo Zhengcheng asked.
"It's not him." Fu Sheng shook his head, "He's someone that even Hu Yanming is afraid of."
"What kind of person is afraid of Hu Yanming?" Huo Zhengcheng and the rest were curious.
"That person is an old man around sixty to seventy years old, I do not know his background, I only know that he has a basic understanding of our Archaeopterygium's techniques and martial skills, and he even knows about our Archaeopterygium's rune array. Because he is powerful, Hu Yanming has no way of dealing with him, and he has even agreed to do some things that our sect simply rejects, such as snatching these young ladies." Fu Sheng said.
"There's actually such a person." Huo Zhengcheng and the rest were all surprised.
"What is the name of the old man? Where is he hiding in your Archaeopterygium?" Lin Long immediately asked.
At this time, he vaguely felt that Li Muling's disappearance was related to this old man.
"I don't know his name." Fu Sheng shook his head.
"Did you send all the girls you snatched to him?" Lin Long asked.
"Not to him, but to his appointed place." Fu Sheng said.
"What does he want with these girls?" Huo Zhengcheng interrupted from the side.
"I still don't know." Fu Sheng shook his head again. "However, I heard from them that this old man is most likely cultivating some kind of demonic art and needs the young girl's vital yin."
"From the looks of it, Miss Mu Ling is very fierce," Huo Zhengcheng did not finish his sentence, because he saw the gloomy face of Lin Long at the side.
"Right now, head to the Archaeopterygium!" Lin Long suddenly said coldly.
Very quickly, in the middle of the night, Lin Long brought people from several major forces to the Archaeopterygium.
Hu Yanming was woken up while still sleeping.
"Sect Master, it's bad, that Lin Long led a few other great powers to find trouble with us, they said that if we don't hand Li Muling over, we will massacre our Archaeopterygium."
Hearing this, Hu Yanming immediately woke up and jumped out of bed.
Afterwards, he led his subordinates and rushed to the foot of the Ancient Spring Mountain to meet the people from the big powers and Lin Long, who was famous but did not see anyone these few days.
Seeing that the youth in front of him was extremely handsome, with an indescribably powerful aura, whose gaze was so sharp that it seemed as though it could pierce a large hole in his body, Hu Yanming could not help but be dumbstruck, because he had seen this youth before somewhere before.
Soon, he remembered. He had seen him in the spirit spring, but he seemed to have been an ordinary person at that time.
Could it be just two people who looked alike? With this thought in mind, he could not help but stare at the other party with wide eyes.
Soon, he confirmed that this person was the youth that he had seen at the Spirit Spring Pool.
After confirming this point, he couldn't help but ask, "Did you take the Spirit Spring Milk?"
"That's right." Lin Long nodded.
Seeing Lin Long nod his head, Hu Yanming could not help but feel depressed, he could not help but ask: "How did you hide your Qi and the Spirit Spring Water's Qi, to the point where I could not detect it at all?"
"You don't need to know. You just need to hand over Miss Li Muling!" Lin Long said coldly.
"Miss Li Muling is really not in our Archaeopterygium. Her disappearance has nothing to do with our Archaeopterygium!" Hu Yanming shouted.
He had already decided not to admit it even if he was beaten to death.
