Chapter 34: People before the Underground Palace is Opened
At this time, the people above had already arrived one after another. There were more than thirty independent cultivators with different appearances, and four people with eight warriors behind them came to the two young masters who were with Li Tian before.
The six people were whispering something in secret , and then they stopped talking when they saw Lin Mo come out. In addition, the evil duo Feng Hen and Meng Qing who had been seen before were still wearing long robes. They stayed away from the most crowded places and stood in the corner without saying a word.
The bodies of Li Tian and the two warriors had disappeared. No one knew who had collected them. Next to Liu Emei and Han Xiao stood Dongfang Huai, Huangfu Lingyun, and a young man with a tough face but dressed like a noble family.
Lin Mo guessed that this should be Murong Ying from the Murong family. Dongfang Huai was talking to Liu Emei, while Huangfu Lingyun on the side was still smiling. Murong Ying just stood there looking at them without saying a word, just nodding from time to time.
At this time, a man in a black robe and a mask on his face saw Lin Mo, ran up quickly and said, "Young Master Lin, my name is Yun Tianqing. My master asked me to follow you in the underground palace so that it would be easier to complete the plan. By the way, during this period, I will call you Master Lin, and you can call me Butler. If Master Lin finds this name inconvenient, you can change it to another name."
Lin Mo nodded and said, "Just call me that. It's just to help you hide your identity. I'm usually very low-key and no one will notice me. Remember that you will also need to take action when the time comes, butler."
Yun Zhongqing nodded and said, "Master, you may have some trouble for killing Li Tian just now. Li Tian himself is a waste, but he is the grandson of the head of the Li family, the largest force in Yuzhong City, Tianmu Domain. The seven major families in Tianmu Domain have cooperated with each other, so they have collected Li Tian's body and notified the Li family. When the underground palace is finished, you will have to face the wrath of the Li family."
Lin Mo said: "Will the strongest person from their family come, or will they just send some family disciples to hunt me down?"
Yun Zhongqing said, "Your Qi training realm is considered to be in the middle to high level among the major families in Tianmu Domain, so at most they will send one or two Qi training level one or two people with a team of marrow refining warriors to hunt you down. The remaining six major families will also lend a hand. After all, the marrow refining stage is just a small ant to them, so they don't mind doing a favor for the Li family. Young master, you better be careful."
Lin Mo nodded and thought to himself: Since the Li family is looking for death, I will kill as many people as they send. If the other six families also send people, they will all die. I still have to improve my cultivation as soon as possible, and then destroy the Li family to intimidate the other families. Why did Li Tian come to trouble me? Isn't it because he thinks I am weak and have no backing? In this case, I will make a name for myself. Whoever messes with me, I will destroy his entire family!
Then he calmly said to Yun Zhongqing: "You don't have to worry about this matter. The Hu family's plan will be implemented on time."
Yun Zhongqing didn't care. After all, he came here just to monitor Lin Mo's plan and make sure it went smoothly. When the underground palace was closed, the most important thing would be to join the Yiqi Society as soon as possible.
At this time, a voice came from a distance: "Brother Lin!"
Lin Mo saw Tang Yu, Xu Tianfu and Li Shu from the Holy Medical Alliance coming towards him, so he whispered to Yun Tianqing: "They are my friends, and the youngest one will go in with me when the time comes."
Yun Tianqing nodded. He also recognized two of them. One was the Jade-like Young Master Tang Yu, who was ranked 20th on the Human List, and the other was the Bloodthirsty Hand Xu Tianfu, who was ranked 98th on the Human List. As for the youngest one, he must be a disciple of a big force.
Yun Tianqing glanced at Lin Mo. He didn't expect that he had such a wide circle of friends. As the leader of a gang before, he knew very well that even if the disciples of these big sects were polite when talking to you, the arrogance in their bones would remain unchanged.
What's more, he is a figure on the human list. Since ancient times, dragons have never interacted with snakes. Therefore, he looked at Lin Mo with some admiration. Then he took a step back slightly and said that he was just an attendant butler.
Li Shu walked up to Lin Mo and said anxiously: "Brother Lin, I heard that you killed a disciple from a big family in Tianmu Territory when you first came. It's a pity that I got up too late today, otherwise I would have seen this scene!"
Then he muttered to himself, "It's exactly the same as a novel. When the protagonist goes out to explore some ruins or reveal some treasure, some villains will inevitably jump out and shout, and then be severely slapped in the face by the protagonist. It's a pity that I came too late, otherwise I would have seen the scene."
The people around him were all experts with good hearing. They all heard Li Shu's mumbling. Lin Mo was immediately embarrassed. Tang Yu opened his folding fan to cover his lips and smiled secretly. Xu Tianfu pretended to be serious and nodded, indicating that he agreed with Li Shu's statement.
Tang Yu was the first to notice Yun Zhongqing behind Lin Mo, and asked, "Brother Lin, who is this person behind you?"
Lin Mo answered casually: "This is the housekeeper sent by my family. He just arrived these two days and is responsible for taking care of me. He will also enter the underground palace with me."
Tang Yu nodded and didn't take it to heart. After all, Lin Mo's parents had high intelligence authority, so naturally their family background was extraordinary. Only Xu Tianfu looked at Yun Tianqing twice more, then frowned slightly, wondering why a housekeeper had such a low level of cultivation, but he didn't say much.
Lin Mo found that Xu Tianfu should be clear that what he just said was probably a made-up excuse, but because Yun Zhongqing was there, Xu Tianfu couldn't ask any more questions, so Lin Mo blinked at Xu Tianfu, and Xu Tianfu nodded to show that he understood.
After spending the past two days together, Xu Tianfu and Li Shu have become quite familiar with each other. In addition, Li Shu belongs to the absolutely neutral camp of the Holy Medical Alliance, so he has no prejudice against evil ways. Then Xu Tianfu said to Li Shu: "Little brother Li, you must remember that in the underground palace, the only person you can trust is Brother Lin, and you only listen to Brother Lin. Don't let Brother Tang worry, okay?"
When Xu Tianfu said this again, his tone emphasized Brother Lin alone. Although Li Shu was innocent, he was not stupid. He looked at Lin Mo, then glanced at Yun Zhongqing behind Lin Mo, as if he had discovered something interesting.
He quickly nodded and agreed, saying, "Don't worry, Brother Xu, I will only listen to Brother Lin after I go in." His tone also emphasized Brother Lin alone.
Yun Tianqing kept his head down and was behind Lin Mo, so he didn't pay attention to their conversation.
Xu Tianfu saw that Li Shu understood what he meant, so he said nothing more, and then said to Lin Mo: "Maybe there will be some experts on the human ranking list coming to see the excitement later."
Lin Mo expressed his confusion: "Uh, they can't get in again, is there any point in making a special trip?"
Tang Yu took over the conversation and said, "Brother Lin, you don't know that these forces are mainly here to support the disciples who enter. There will be fighting after each underground palace, so these forces will send some people to safely pick up the disciples who have successfully passed the underground palace."
Lin Mo nodded, indicating that this matter had little to do with him. His current strength was still far from the top of the human list, so he didn't consider these things. Now almost everyone was there, except for the people from the Hu family and the court.
