Chapter 138: Demonesses Are Indeed Ranked
Liu Mei giggled and leaned close to his ear, “I like the righteous aura of a righteous young hero.”
“Next time, let’s play a role-playing game, okay? You can use a whip to discipline me as much as you like, young hero-mm-“
As she spoke, she licked Lin Fengmian’s ear, causing him to instantly imagine the scene, his blood rushing to his head.
The previously righteous young hero, Lin Fengmian, was instantly defeated, bending down slightly to hide his embarrassment.
Damn it, demonesses are really ranked.
“First, focus on your cultivation. Once the array is ready, we’ll set up some small arrays in the city’s shelters.”
After saying this, he turned to Wen Qinlin and said, “Brother Wen, come with me, I have something important to tell you!”
Seeing Lin Fengmian bend down and run away, Liu Mei couldn’t help but giggle. She then led the other women to rest and cultivate nearby.
Lost in thought, Liu Mei looked up at the sky. According to reason, her master should have arrived by now, so why hasn’t she seen anyone?
Wen Qinlin followed Lin Fengmian to the side and asked, “Brother Lin, what do you want to tell me?
“Brother Wen, remember that the focal point of the array cannot be moved and you cannot take any action,” Lin Fengmian said seriously.
“That doesn’t make sense. The Seven Stars accompanying the Moon Array only prevents me from leaving the city lord’s residence. Why can’t I do anything?” Wen Qinlin was confused.
Lin Fengmian blinked and said, “I said you can’t move, so you can’t take action.”
Wen Qinlin immediately understood and nodded, “I understand!”
Lin Fengmian gave a thumbs up, “Talking to smart people is easy. Do you remember all the key points of the array?”
Wen Qinlin took out the array disk and asked seriously, “Brother Lin, how do I control this array disk? Is the flow of spiritual energy here correct…?”
Lin Fengmian, who didn’t understand these things, handed over control of his body to Luo Xue and let her answer Wen Qinlin’s questions.
Luo Xue meticulously explained the use and techniques of the Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon Array, making everything crystal clear.
Wen Qinlin nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining with admiration as she looked at Lin Fengmian with a newfound respect.
She had never expected Brother Lin to know so much about arrays, which was truly admirable.
In reality, although Lin Fengmian was listening attentively, he was beginning to feel sleepy.
Just as Lin Fengmian was relaxing, Luo Xue suddenly asked Wen Qinlin, “Brother Wen, have you heard of the Qionghua Sect?”
Lin Fengmian was startled awake and tried to regain control of his body, but Luo Xue pushed him aside.
Not good!
Before he could react, Wen Qinlin had already replied, “I almost forgot about this.”
“After you asked me last time, I looked into the Qionghua Sect in Changzhou City, but there are very few records, as if their history has been erased.”
“Just know that the Qionghua Sect was the sect where the Qionghua Supreme resided. Not long after the Qionghua Supreme died, the sect was destroyed.”
Luo Xue was completely stunned and muttered, “Qionghua Supreme is dead? Qionghua has been destroyed, when did this happen?”
Wen Qinlin frowned and said, “It was probably about a thousand years ago. There are no detailed records, so I’m not sure.”
Luo Xue was as motionless as a wooden chicken, tears streaming down her cheeks without her noticing.
Wen Qinlin was startled and said, “Brother Lin, what’s wrong with you?”
Luo Xue handed control of the body back to Lin Fengmian and hid herself away.
Lin Fengmian hurriedly wiped away the tears and forced a smile, “I’m fine, just a little uncomfortable.”
“You continue, I’ll go meditate over there.”
Wen Qinlin was taken aback, “Alright.”
Lin Fengmian rushed to a corner, sat down, and pretended to meditate to recover.
“Luo Xue, Luo Xue, are you okay?”
“Lin Fengmian, this is what you have been hiding from me. It wasn’t that I died.” Luo Xue’s despondent voice echoed.
Even when she thought she had died, she hadn’t been this despondent. Now, her voice was so low that it seemed like she was about to cry.
Not knowing what to do, Lin Fengmian sighed, “Luo Xue, I didn’t want to hide it from you. I was afraid that you wouldn’t be able to handle it.”
Dazed, Luo Xue said, “Tell me everything you know. If you hide anything from me again, I’ll never speak to you again.”
Lin Fengmian had no choice but to tell her everything he knew without holding back.
“That’s all I know. I wanted to investigate further before telling you, but all the records have been destroyed. Right now, it’s all hearsay.”
“Luo Xue, I promise you that once we’re done here, I’ll help you find out how Qionghua was destroyed.”
“Then I’ll find a way to avoid all of this, to change the outcome. Believe me, I really want to help you.”
Luo Xue just replied despondently, “Okay, I understand. I’m very confused right now, I need some time alone!”
She said nothing more as her soul retreated into the Double Fish Pendant, cutting off all contact with the outside world.
No matter how Lin Fengmian tried to communicate with her, she didn’t respond.
Lin Fengmian looked at the dimming Double Fish Pendant and knew that Luo Xue was hiding inside.
Unable to project his divine sense outside of his body, he had no way to communicate with her, so he sighed helplessly.
Fine, let her have some rest.
Everything was ready now. Seeing his parents in the distance, he stood up and walked over.
The Lin Family Mansion.
Lin Fengmian and Xia Yunxi escorted Lin Wencheng, Li Zhuxuan, and others back to the Lin Family Mansion. After that, all the members of the Lin Family Clan and many members of the Zhao family moved in.
After all, the Lin Family Manor had the array formation set up by Wen Qinlin, which could withstand the invasion of the beasts.
Even if the beasts broke into the city, the people inside the Lin Family Manor would have more safety.
The Lin Family Manor was now filled to the brim with people who had some connection to the clan, all vying to get in.
All the clan members knew about Lin Fengmian’s current abilities and relied on him.
Even the clan elders, who usually treated him with disdain, now greeted him with smiles, flattering and cajoling him.
Lin Fengmian could only pacify them with kind words, work with Wen Qinlin to strengthen the formation in the manor, and finally close the entrance.
From then on, only Lin Fengmian and his group could leave, and no one else could enter to avoid being ambushed by Zhao Yazhi and Qin Haoxuan.
They set up several such formations, all in the safe zones of the city, with the one at the Lin Family Mansion being the strongest.
Seeing the worried clan members, Lin Fengmian said, “Everyone, the beasts are surrounding the city, and the situation is dangerous.”
“The Lin family mansion is one of the few safe places. I hope everyone will stay inside and wait patiently for the crisis to pass.”
One of the clan members trembled with fear and asked, “Fengmian, will this formation really work?”
Lin Fengmian nodded, “Don’t worry, my parents are here. How could I leave them?”
The crowd felt somewhat reassured, but someone still asked nervously, “Can’t you stay or leave a fairy to protect us?”
“Exactly, if the beasts break in, won’t we be in danger?”
“Or you could take us with you…”
