1606: C1606 Back to Moshi City

C1606 Back to Moshi City

After a while, seeing that no one was bidding, this secret manual was naturally sold to Lin Long.

Once again, the auctioneer personally gave it to Lin Long.

After putting the secret manual into the rune space ring, Lin Long turned to Mo Qiu and said, "Mo Qiu, since we are so rich, there must definitely be a lot of people watching us. Are you ready?"

Mo Qiu immediately patted her chest and said, "Young Noble, don't worry. Since I am the leader of the assassination organization, I naturally have the ability to deal with them.

Soon after, a member of the auction house arrived at the entrance.

Mo Qiu obviously recognized this person, and directly said to him, "Bring us safely out of the auction house."

"Yes sir!" "All of you, follow me."

"Young master, let's follow him." Mo Qiu replied.

A few people immediately followed the person and walked out. The people from the auction house did not bring them back along the road. Instead, they opened a hidden door at the side of the passage.

After entering through the secret door, Lin Long realized that this place seemed to be a private room.

The auctioneer walked to the left side of the wall and lightly tapped on it a few times. There was another hidden door opening here, revealing a passageway to the bottom this time.

"We'll be safe outside from here." The auctioneer said.

"Young master, let's go." Mo Qiu said as she walked in.

After the four of them entered, the secret door behind them closed.

"Young master, there are many routes like this for the auction house. I spent a lot to get this one, and don't worry, only I know about this one. No one else will know. The auction house still won't mess around on this one." Mo Qiu said.

"That's good." Lin Long nodded.

After walking for the time it took an incense stick to burn, the group finally reached the end of the tunnel. After exiting, Lin Long realised that they had arrived at the dense forest.

"This forest is in the north of the city. As long as we head towards the south, we will be back in the city soon." Mo Qiu said.

At this time, Lin Long suddenly frowned, because he noticed that there was a person not far from him on the left, and he was not weak either.

Moreover, the other party was obviously staring at them.

After thinking about it, Lin Long did not move. Instead, he pretended to follow Mo Qiu and the others towards the south.

They had moved, and the man behind them had moved too. Mo Qiu and the rest had not noticed her footsteps, it was obvious that the other party was well versed in concealment, if not for Lin Long's strong divine sense, he would not have noticed him.

"There's someone following us from behind. I'll take a left later, and the three of you take a right one." Following that, Lin Long whispered to Mo Qiu and the other two.

Someone was following him? Everyone was surprised.

In his heart, he was shocked that Lin Long had actually discovered it.

Although their powers were limited, their telepathic thoughts were still the same as before. Thus, they were naturally surprised.

Immediately, they followed Lin Long's instructions and headed to the right.

After that, the person following them clearly hesitated, and in the end, he chose to follow Mo Qiu and the other two.

As soon as he went over, Lin Long immediately stopped and let out the Rune wood man.

The other party seemed to be a Level 5 Warrior cultivator, so he did not want to use a fourth level Qi Pills. After activating his Level 5 Warrior, he naturally took out the rune wood man.

Once he released the Rune wood man, he and the Rune wood man immediately chased after the man.

When they got close, the person who was focused on Mo Qiu and the rest noticed them, but there was no time. They were immediately surrounded by Lin Long, the Rune wood man and Mo Qiu.

"Who are you?" Mo Qiu said coldly.

The man was masked and dressed in black, so they couldn't tell what he looked like.

He only let out a cold snort, and then suddenly struck out with his palm towards the Rune wood man.

Presumably, he thought that the Rune wood man were the weakest.

Mo Qiu and the rest were speechless, thinking to themselves, if you don't pick the ones who are weaker than us, and pick the ones who are stronger, isn't that just courting death?

Seeing him attack with his palm, the Rune wood man immediately threw out a punch.

The moment this fist came out, the black masked man's expression changed greatly, because he realized that this wood man rune was from the Level 5 Warrior, and its strength was not weak either.

"Bam!"

Qi-Storing, the black-clothed man was immediately flipped over.

Before he could stand up, the rune sword s of Mo Qiu and the other two had already struck towards him.

He quickly moved his palm to block.

"Bang, bang, bang!" With these three sounds, Mo Qiu and the other two were forced to continuously retreat. They only had the strength of Level Four Warrior after all, so how could they withstand one strike from the black-clothed man?

But, this gave the Rune wood man a chance.

Before the masked man could even catch his breath, the fist power of Rune wood man smashed over again.

He quickly sent a palm strike out to meet it.

This time, the hasty attack finally could not withstand the fist of the Rune wood man and was directly severely injured by the Rune wood man.

Runic wood man took the chance and attacked. After a few punches, the masked man was completely lying on the ground.

It was only then that Lin Long walked over to his side and raised the sword in his hand. The mask on the face of the black clothed man was immediately lifted, revealing the face of a middle-aged man.

"This is Mo Tao, one of the Great Elder's men!" Upon seeing this person's face, Mo Qiu, who had surrounded him, immediately spoke out.

"If that's the case, then we should leave this place first. Otherwise, it would not be good if the Great Elder brought his men here." Luo Yuan quickly replied.

"Alright." Lin Long nodded.

After that, Luo Yuan carried Mo Tao on his back and they continued to walk towards the south. However, this time they had obviously changed their route.

Not long after, they entered the northern part of the Mo Shi City. Fearing that someone would notice them, Mo Tao had already changed into a black robe.

After entering the north side of the Mo Shi City, Mo Qiu directly brought them to the killer's organization's secret stronghold.

This was a yard that looked like a normal family.

After knocking, a young man opened the door.

"Who?" Looking at Mo Qiu and the others, the young man asked immediately.

Mo Qiu immediately said out the hitman organization's secret signal. The moment she heard the correct signal, she immediately let them in.

As he had never seen Mo Qiu and the rest's true colors, this young man did not know that Mo Qiu and Luo Yuan were the big boss and third boss of the hitman organization.

Mo Qiu was still worried even after entering the courtyard, and directly brought them to the basement of the courtyard.

The moment they entered the basement, they immediately placed Mo Tao on the ground. Mo Qiu then coldly asked, "How did you know that we would come out of there?"

"I don't know. It was the Great Elder's orders." Mo Tao answered honestly.

"Does he know our secret passage?" Mo Qiu could not help but frown.

"Big brother, don't worry, he probably doesn't know. Otherwise, he would have stopped us in the passage long ago." Luo Yuan said.

"That's true." Mo Qiu nodded.

"It should be a guess. Otherwise, we wouldn't have only sent this one person." Lei Cheng said as well.

"That's great. If we know that secret passage, we won't be able to use it in the future." Mo Qiu said.

After asking Mo Tao a few more questions, and being unable to find anything useful, Mo Qiu looked at Lin Long and asked, "Sir, can we still keep this person?"

"Let's kill him." Lin Long said lightly.

Since he was currently in the Mo Stone City and didn't have the time to deal with it, it was naturally better to silence them.

Hearing Lin Long's words, Mo Qiu instantly killed Mo Tao.

After that, the few of them walked out of the stronghold, Lei Cheng returned to his home, and Mo Qiu and Luo Yuan went back to the assassination organization.

"Pay attention to that Du Xiu, if you have the chance, directly kill him!" Before leaving, Lin Long said to Mo Qiu and Luo Yuan.

He didn't know where the other party was at the moment, so he simply handed the matter over to Mo Qiu and Yue Yang.

Mo Qiu and Mo Qiu naturally agreed to this matter.

Just as they entered Xie Zhe's courtyard, a disciple saw Lin Long and asked, "Junior-apprentice Brother Lin, where did you go? Master looked for you for a long time, and said that you went to his study after coming back."

"Thank you, Senior Brother." After saying that, Lin Long walked toward Xie Zhe's study.

Arriving outside Xie Zhe's study, before they had even knocked, Xie Zhe had already said, "Come in."

Pushing the door open, Lin Long discovered that Xie Zhe was sitting in front of the desk.

Xie Zhe now looked calm, as if he had walked out from the shadow of the previous matter.

"Lin Li, where did you go?" Seeing Lin Long walking in, he raised his head and said.

"I went out for a walk with a friend." Lin Long said.

"Have you forgotten what I told you before? What if Du Xiu finds out when you go out?" Xie Zhe frowned.

"Disciple doesn't dare to do so next time." Lin Long immediately replied.

Seeing Lin Long like this, Xie Zhe nodded his head and said, "In half a month, our Mo Clan's disciples will organize a martial arts competition."

"Martial Arts Competition?"

"Yes, only by obtaining a certain ranking in this competition can one enter the mystic realm's smelting trial." Xie Zhe said again.

"Secret Realm smelting trial?" Lin Long pretended to be confused.

We, Mo Clan, have a secret realm within Mo Shi City, which is where the Mo Clan's patriarchs and experts pass away. There is a certain probability of obtaining the opportunity to enter this secret realm to cultivate, so, this is a good opportunity for you guys, the reason why I called you here, is because I hope that you can obtain a placing to enter the secret realm. In other words, in the competition one and a half month from now, I hope that you can obtain good results. Xie Zhe said as he looked at Lin Long.

"It's just that, when this disciple just entered, the Rune Seal that I know is average too, I'm afraid I'm not a match for those seniors and juniors." Lin Long said with a face full of worry.

"So, this will require hard work. However, I believe in you. You are very talented in Rune Seal, and I feel that you will be able to obtain the opportunity to enter the Secret Realm's Trial within one and a half months." Xie Zhe said.

After a short pause, he said, "Of course, it's impossible to not work hard with talent, so you have to work harder in this one and a half month. Since other people cannot compare with your talent, if you practice the same content as others, it will drag down your progress in your studies."

"Master, what do you mean?" Lin Long asked doubtfully.

"My meaning is to help you focus on your cultivation. From today onwards, you will come here every three days to learn Rune Seal Arts, and I will adjust the content of your studies according to your progress." Xie Zhe said.

"Thank you, Master." Lin Long said.

"Alright, then I'll teach you from now on." Xie Zhe said.

After that, he gave some Rune Seal books to Lin Long, and not only did he let Lin Long read them, he even personally taught them to Lin Long, which moved him a little.

After all, such masters were rare.

In the beginning, Xie Zhe talked about some basic knowledge, but being taught by a strong expert of Rune Seal like Xie Zhe was different, it was obvious that Lin Long had learnt even more.

The more he taught, the more surprised Xie Zhe became. He realized that Lin Long's basic knowledge was very solid, and was much better than his back then.

If he knew that Lin Long had not been studying Rune Seal for too long, he would probably be so shocked that his eyeballs almost fell out.

After teaching for half a day, Xie Zhe finally let Lin Long go back.

After returning to his room, Lin Long took out the incomplete secret manual.

He took it out and looked at it seriously. Although it was incomplete, but from this manual, he seemed to have found a different path. If he were to learn Rune Seal from this path, it would be twice the result with more work and half the effort.

Such a discovery made Lin Long start to seriously study this book.

What made him sigh was that the things that Xie Zhe had taught him could actually make it easier for him to understand this book.

Not only were the things that Xie Zhe had taught them, even the secret scripture he had obtained from the Xiang Family had some uses.

Unknowingly, Lin Long saw the middle of the night.

By this time, he had finished the entire book, but due to the incomplete parts of the book, he was not able to fully grasp it.

It was only a matter of forming a new method in his mind that he was unable to figure out at the moment.

Lin Long knew that he couldn't do it overnight, so he decided to stop thinking about it and take a nap.

When he woke up the next day, he still went to report to Xie Zhe.

After teaching Lin Long for a while, Xie Zhe had some matters to attend to and thus, he did not leave. Instead, he remained in the study room.

Taking this opportunity, he decided to flip through the books in Xie Zhe's study.

There were a lot of books in Xie Zhe's study, so he slowly started to flip through them.

This flip of his took an entire day. When Xie Zhe returned, the sky had already darkened to an unknown extent.

Seeing that Lin Long was actually still in the study, Xie Zhe was naturally surprised, "You've been reading for such a long time already?"

"Yes." Lin Long nodded.

In this period of time, other than eating, he spent the rest of his time reading books.1

"Sure enough, there's no chance of success. A person like you won't have justice if you don't succeed!" Xie Zhe could not help but exclaim.

"Thank you for your praise, Master." Lin Long smiled indifferently.

Immediately, he no longer stayed in the study room and left.

He had gained something from staying here for so long, and the reason why he stayed here for so long was because the more he read, the more he seemed to understand that incomplete manual.

Maybe after reading all of the books in there, he would be able to solve the mystery of the incomplete secret manual, Lin Long thought.

Of course, he knew that it was not that simple to solve the mystery of that incomplete secret manual. Otherwise, the original owner of that book would not have used it for auction.

It must have been because the original owner had thought of many ways to solve the mystery behind it that the auction was held in the end.

He would read it again tomorrow. After reading through the book inside, such a thought flashed through Lin Long's mind as he left.
