Chapter Seventy-Three: Business Discussion

  Martial Guest Summit, Senior Martial Guest.

  For the man and woman who had just appeared, Lin Yun instantly saw through their true strength. With such strength, they indeed had the capital to rob an army, after all, the number of these bandits was far from being inferior to that of the army.

  "Do you know me?"

  He was exposed by the other party about his origin, but he knew nothing about the situation of this group of bandits. In fact, from this aspect alone, Kun Peng had already lost. However, as the captain of a army of ten thousand people, his duty was to lead the troops behind him to the border smoothly and then let them go to battle to defend their homes and country.

  "Kun Peng, 35 years old this year, a mid-level martial artist, has been a soldier for ten years and can be considered to have achieved something. This time's mission is to help the Empire recruit new soldiers. At home, there are elderly mothers above and wives and children below, right?"

  Hearing the other party's clear understanding of his own situation, Kun Peng's face changed, and he asked in a cold voice: "What do you mean by this?"

  "Haha, don't worry, as the saying goes 'thieves have their own code of conduct', I, Mu Yu Bai, haven't become shameless enough to target your family. This time we intercepted you, besides wanting you to leave behind some money for passage, we also want one thing. Hand over that thing and you can pass through, otherwise, bear the consequences yourself."

  "How dare you rob the army? Are you not afraid of the Empire annihilating you in the future?"

  The initial passion and confidence were all swept away, the other side was two martial guests, Kun Peng had also seen it early on, it was precisely because of this that he became even more worried, and this time he not only recruited new soldiers but also had something very important to bring to the battlefield, if this thing fell into the hands of outsiders, then trouble would be big.

  "Eliminate us? Don't be afraid to tell you, since we dare to come out and rob you, we are not afraid of the empire surrounding and eliminating us in the future. Kunpeng, everyone is very clear about your background, and we won't bother with that either. We just want that thing, will you hand it over obediently or let us take it by force?"

  "What kind of people are you?"

  "This is none of your business, hand over the thing and leave this place."

  "Hmph, I don't believe it. With a gang of bandits like you, you can kill us? Brothers, for the empire, for our families, follow me!" As he spoke, Kun Peng took the lead and rushed out, while the tens of thousands of soldiers behind him also charged out, waving their steel knives in hand. In an instant, the army and the bandits were engaged in a fierce battle.

  In the army, there were only two people who didn't move. One was Lin Yun and the other was Ling Long. As for the great war between the two sides, neither of them had much interest. This time, they joined the army mainly because Lin Yun wanted to temper himself on the battlefield. However, through what he saw and heard in the past three days, as well as his personal experience, he discovered a problem - that the wars on the battlefield were basically fought by ordinary people. It seemed that even if one's cultivation reached his level, it wouldn't be of much use on the battlefield either. In that case, what was the point of continuing to rush to the border?

  This time leaving Tianfa Academy is to constantly hone myself and improve my strength. But in this situation, joining the army and fighting would only be a waste of time.

  One after another, the miserable cries echoed throughout the sky and earth. Both sides seemed to have killed each other with rage, shouting angrily while constantly swinging their steel knives in hand. Mu Yu Bai flew over with a single leap, effortlessly killing Kun Peng without even using any strength. He took out a map from Kun Peng's body and then left with Lei Ting Shao Nu.

  The other leaders had already left, and Lin Yun and Ling Teng also didn't continue to stay behind. They took off their military uniforms and quickly left the battlefield. This battle between the bandits and the army was truly astonishing, with blood flowing like rivers and corpses scattered all over the fields.

  "Linglong, you won't just keep following me like this, will you?"

  Looking at Linglong following him all the time, Lin Yun was thoroughly depressed. What's going on here? If it were an ordinary situation, he would have brought someone along, but this time he left to temper himself. Who knows when he would encounter life and death? What if innocent people get implicated at that time?

  "Hmph, who wants to follow you? I have something else to do, so I'll leave first," she glared at him fiercely and turned around to head in another direction. Lin Yun was completely bewildered by Ling Long's sudden departure, as if she were a lonely ghost drifting away.

  He shook his head helplessly and didn't continue to stay in the original place, but instead walked forward. As for where he was going, he didn't have a specific goal at this time. Anyway, wherever he went would be fine. The world is so big, take this opportunity to make a good trip. When returning to Tianfa Academy later, he must give his master and the beautiful teacher a surprise.

  "I really didn't expect that among a common army of ten thousand people, there would be such an expert hidden. Who are you?"

  Suddenly stopped by a man and a woman, Lin Yun was already very unhappy. After all, he didn't know the man and woman in front of him, especially when he saw Mu Yu Bai's pretentious attitude, he couldn't help but want to go up and kick him hard. However, for the beautiful young woman in front of him, he still had a bit of a good impression.

  "I'm really puzzled, this time you've robbed the military and gotten what you wanted, as for who I am, it seems to be none of your business, are you guys really bored out of your minds?"

  "It seems that you are a man of great depth, and since you are a straightforward person, I won't waste words. As for what just happened, we don't want it to leak out, but among the ten thousand soldiers, only you left, so in order to ensure that the news doesn't leak out, we have no choice but to inconvenience you and sacrifice yourself, how about it?"

  Sacrifice yourself? How else? It seems that the two are seeking their own opinions, but everyone knows the intentions of the two. It seems to be a consultation, but in fact it is a coercion. What makes Lin Yun puzzled is that this time not only did he leave, but Linglong also left. Why didn't the two discover Linglong?

  "Are you negotiating with me?"

  "That's right."

  "In that case, I'd also like to discuss something with both of you, how about it?"

  "I'd like to hear more about it."

  Can't help but admit, Mu Yu Bai's temper is simply good to the extreme point, from head to toe are with a smile on his face, waving a folding fan, giving people a very elegant feeling, however, Lin Yun felt more and more uncomfortable as he looked at him.

  "Actually, I just want to discuss with the two of you, why not let this young woman marry me instead? And you can be my follower. Don't worry, I will definitely not treat you badly, what do you think?"

  No matter how good the upbringing, no matter how good the temper, when Mu Yu Bai heard these words, his face sank instantly, and he sneered: "Originally wanted to give you a chance to kill yourself, but now it seems that you don't know what's good for you. Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless and merciless."

  As he spoke, Mu Yu Bai swung out his folding fan and followed him out. It turned out that the folding fan in Mu Yu Bai's hand was a steel-made iron fan that could be used as a weapon, and Mu Yu Bai himself was a high-level martial artist, so his strength was naturally not ordinary.

  For such a shameless person, Lin Yun didn't plan to let him off so easily. With a flash of his brow, a purple longsword suddenly appeared in his hand. He took the Lingbo Micro Step and swung the sword three times in quick succession. Three icy red sword auras over three meters long shot out instantly, and the cold air emanating from the sword aura directly blocked Mu Yu Bai who was rushing towards him.

  "Sword energy."

  "Sword energy."

  Mu Yu Bai and Pi Li were both shocked, they never thought that the other could use sword energy. What kind of person was this in front of them? In an instant, they had a general idea in their hearts, after all, in this world, only one force's people could use sword energy, and this force was not something that the two of them could handle.

  The two of them silently cursed their bad luck, wondering what kind of misfortune had led them to encounter someone from the Sword Sect. This was a disaster - if they let this person go and he reported back to the Sword Sect, they would likely be killed without even being given a proper burial.

  No place to die and be buried?

  Mu Yu Bai shivered with a chill as he thought of this, and Pi Li also stopped watching the show, taking a step forward in an instant. The two had already decided that no matter what happened, they must kill the person in front of them this time, and absolutely could not let anyone know that they had killed someone from the Sword Sect, otherwise their troubles would be great later on.

  "It turned out to be a friend of Jianzong."

  "Shut up," without giving Mu Yu Bai any chance to speak, Lin Yun already knew that once the two saw the sword energy he had just released, in order to avoid future trouble, they would definitely kill him to silence him. At this time, Mu Yu Bai deliberately spoke to him, only wanting to distract his attention.

  It's such a simple truth, Lin Yun naturally knew that fighting two people at once was somewhat tiring, but it was also absolutely a kind of training. He had to admit that the coordination between the two was indeed very tacit. If not for his sword energy being extremely powerful, it was possible that he really couldn't withstand their joint attack. With his footwork in the Lingbo Micro Steps and his hand wielding the purple longsword, the icy three-meter-long crimson sword energy seemed like a row of crimson sword dragons, fiercely attacking the two people nonstop.

  The battle between the three was so intense that all the surrounding flowers, grass and trees were destroyed. Linglong, who was watching from a distance, saw the red sword energy released by the young man and also showed a hint of surprise on her face, as if muttering to herself: "I didn't expect this kid to master the red sword energy so quickly, no wonder he's Uncle Lin's son."

  Linglong didn't leave, but instead hid to the side and watched as she fought the two of them. Lin Yun was completely unaware that this time he had finally found two top-notch experts whose cultivation was roughly on par with his own, and it just so happened that he could use this opportunity to thoroughly test out the Lingbo Micro Steps, striving to master them as soon as possible.

  Lingbo Wei Bu, according to the master's words, is a unique and unparalleled martial art that surpasses the basics, even the master himself has praised it as a superb technique. I believe Lingbo Wei Bu is definitely not an ordinary skill, if so, then not practicing it diligently would be truly foolish.
