Chapter 3835 3634: Layout preparation(1/2)
"It's not urgent." Luo Zhentian did not agree. He glanced at Ning Cheng secretly and after weighing the matter, he rejected Lin Lin first.
Now that Lin Lin has just joined and is not considered one of his own, it is too early to rushly arrange for Xing Tianshen and the Xie Yue Sect to be introduced.
"Then don't rush." Lin Lin did not press any further, and warmly received Luo Zhentian, showing great kindness and wishing to praise Luo Zhentian to heaven.
In the evening, Luo Zhentian dragged his exhausted body and moved into the residence arranged by Lin Lin with Ningcheng Zhuge Changqing. Lin Lin's arrangements were very comprehensive, and even a charming-looking maid knocked on Luo Zhentian's door.
Luo Zhentian pushed him away awkwardly: "Master Ning, this Lin Lin is too enthusiastic."
"He is quite enthusiastic and a profit-seeking guy." Zhuge Changqing commented.
Ning Cheng said: "There is nothing wrong with being profit-seeking. Lin Lin can become the chief of the Northeast branch, and he has not received any support from the headquarters in these years. I heard that when he took over the branch, he only had the cultivation level of the middle stage of True God?"
"Yes." Luo Zhentian said: "Lin Lin is indeed ruthless, and his methods and tactics are not weak. He can rely on his own ability to elevate his realm to the late stage of True God within hundreds of years. It is indeed remarkable."
"This kind of person is not easy to control." Zhuge Changqing leaned on the window sill, holding a wine bottle in his hand and said: "But there is nothing wild about the appearance he showed today, even if Lao Luo's state does not allow him."
"So, this kind of person is the most terrifying." Luo Zhentian said worriedly: "Master Ning, how about I test it again? This Lin Lin does have a palace, maybe he doesn't really surrender."
"No need." Ning Cheng said with a smile: "Lin Lin is nothing more than a wolf. If you give him rich food, he will naturally wag his tail. It doesn't matter whether he is sincere or not. A wolf is a wolf after all. If he betrays the master
Just kill him."
Ning Cheng now has enough strength and confidence to say that Lin Lin is no match at all. If he does things sincerely, he will naturally be rewarded with fine wine!
"I understand." Luo Zhentian clasped his fists respectfully. After Ning Cheng came back this time, Luo Zhentian could clearly feel the changes that had taken place in Ning Cheng. Whether it was temperament or coercion, it was even worse than when Luo Zhentian first met Ning Cheng.
Even more terrifying.
He was increasingly glad that he had sincerely surrendered to Ning Cheng, and was even a little complacent.
Master Ning's progress is indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!
Lin Lin returned to the room, and the two maids arranged for Luo Zhentian to enjoy were now lying on his bed, with seductive eyes waiting for Lin Lin's favor.
Lin Lin's focus was not on the two maids: "Tell me, how true or false is what Luo Zhentian said?"
"Even if Luo Zhentian is given ten leopard courages, it is absolutely impossible for him to frame Xing Tianshen. Besides, Xing Tianshen and Luo Zhentian have a very good relationship. The entire Demon Slayer Division knows about this."
Lin Lin pondered for a moment and said, "You continue to investigate. The details that Luo Zhentian said must be fully investigated."
"yes!"
"By the way, Chief Sir, do we really want to join Xie Yue?" The confidant hesitated.
"Hmph, I have never promised. Whether it is Xie Yue or Demon Slayer, it is not important to me at all. Whoever can give me resources to continue to increase my impact to the highest level is my biological father. But,
Who said you can only have one father?"
In Lin Lin's view, whether it was the Demon Slayer Division or the Xie Yue Sect, it was just a means for him to utilize and improve himself.
Talk to people when you see them, talk about plans when you see ghosts, it's that simple.
If one day, Xing Tianshen and Luo Zhentian are no longer in power, Lin Lin will definitely come out to report them immediately. Not only will the relationship be cleared, but he will even get a lot of benefits from the headquarters.
Although the headquarters abducted two talents that Lin Lin had painstakingly cultivated this time, it seemed that Lin Lin was so respectful and respectful, but he seemed so unwilling in front of Luo Zhentian, looking like he had worked hard.
In fact, only Lin Lin himself knows the real situation.
He never cared about where the talents he cultivated would go. On the contrary, he knew the temper of the headquarters very well.
From the moment the so-called inspection team appeared, Lin Lin knew that the genius he had cultivated might not be able to stay.
He didn't feel any regret, but instead thought about how to use these two geniuses to replace resources. As long as they could support his own cultivation, it would be enough.
He is indeed an extreme egoist.
Even if the headquarters did not propose to bring these geniuses this time, if Lin Lin needs training resources in the future, he will take the initiative to send the geniuses to the headquarters.
Being a favorable favor and getting access to headquarters resources is the best of both worlds.
Lin Lin didn't expect Luo Zhentian to come to him this time, but he didn't refuse. Who doesn't want to leave a way out for his cultivation?
Lin Lin regards Xie Yue Sect and Demon Slayer Division as a bargaining chip for his cultivation, but it is impossible for him to truly surrender. In his heart, only his own cultivation is the most important.
Turn around, the next day.
Lin Lin regained his flattery and found Luo Zhentian. After a boring conversation, Luo Zhentian proposed the idea of going back.
Lin Lin pretended to be sorry and sent Luo Zhentian away. The spy soon came back to report that there was still no substantial development in the news about Lin Lin's investigation of Xing Tianshen.
"Since the investigation can't reveal anything, let's give up now."
Xing Tianshen was once stabbed in the back by the person in charge of a certain branch, who reported his identity as a member of the Xie Yue Sect. In the end, Xing Tianshen was safe and sound, and the person in charge of the report disappeared.
Naturally, Lin Lin would not be stupid enough to report Xing Tianshen. What he pays attention to is balance.
"Master Ning, this Lin Lin is really an old fool. He just gave me a hint secretly that he wants to get training resources from me."
"Then what does he plan to pay?" Ning Cheng asked.
"I guess he doesn't want to give anything, he just wants to get the benefits first!" Luo Zhentian gritted his teeth and said: "How can there be such a good thing in the world? This guy is really an unfed wolf."
Luo Zhentian regrets that he tried to win over Lin Lin in the first place. This person is too greedy and it is very likely that the incident will be exposed in the future.
"Different Taoists don't agree with each other." Zhuge Changqing said with a smile: "Master Ning, do you have any ideas?"
Ning Cheng thought for a while and said: "The Northeastern branch is close to the Luotian region. Although there is a lack of resources there and there is not much improvement in cultivation, the terrain and branches of the Northeastern branch are very important for later expansion."
Ning Cheng looked at the annoyed Luo Zhentian and said, "Zhentian, what you did is right, it's just that Lin Lin is difficult to deal with."
"Master Ning, what should we do next? This guy has started asking me for benefits. Should I give it or not?"
Ning Cheng chuckled and said, "Those who can't be used by me and still plan to suck blood should be destroyed."
Lin Lin was still dreaming about balancing the two sides. He had no idea that Ning Cheng had murderous intentions towards him.
This is completely illogical. From Lin Lin's point of view, he is just asking Luo Zhentian for some benefits, which is equivalent to a ticket. If he wants to join a strong person in the late stage of True God, doesn't he need to promise some benefits?
This is completely in line with common sense, and he doesn't think what he did is excessive.
Lin Lin, who was immersed in the gentle land, opened his arms from left to right, holding the two beauties in his arms and still having sweet dreams. He was very hot by nature and would not miss any opportunity to practice, but when it was time to relax and rest, Lin Lin would not let it go either.
Combining work with rest is a very good habit.
"Sir, we want to serve you well tonight." The maid turned her coquettish figure and blew hot air into Lin Lin's ear. Lin Lin was very satisfied with her charming look.
"Hahahaha, beauty, it was a waste to ask you guys to find Luo Zhentian at that time. This guy doesn't know how to care about women at all. He is just a stupid piece of wood with better luck. What does he know about women?"
The two maids were flattered by Lin Lin and were about to start tonight's singing and dancing.
Lin Lin suddenly felt a wave of energy sweeping across his eyes.
"who!"
Before he finished speaking, a black robe appeared and passed over Lin Lin's body. He was about to resist, but he felt that the things around him were gradually disappearing, and the room fell into darkness, as if a switch had been turned on.
Ning Cheng's hand held Lin Lin's head. He appeared and took action. In half a breath, Lin Lin, who was in the late stage of True God, died without even having time to send any signal.
After killing Lin Lin, Ning Cheng quietly left the room.
As the morning light faded, the maid woke up. Her cold hands seemed to feel like sticky liquid. She only felt that she had slept all night, and the moment she regained clarity.
A hoarse scream came from the room.
Lin Lin, the chief of the Northeast branch, died tragically.
As the instigator, Ning Cheng returned to the Luotian Domain and was discussing the next things with Luo Zhentian and Zhuge Changqing.
There was no mood swing at all.
"Master Ning, after Lin Lin's death, won't the entire Northeast branch be leaderless? I'm afraid the headquarters will launch an investigation?"
Luo Zhentian was immersed in excitement. Ning Cheng's powerful strength and suppression made him intoxicated and admired.
"It doesn't matter." Ning Cheng said: "I found a lot of information in Lin Lin's space ring. This guy is investigating the news about Xing Tianshen and Xie Yue Sect. I'm afraid he naively thinks that he can control the overall situation as a superior."
"Just inform Senior Xing Tianshen and let him handle this matter. It would be best to install one of our own people, so that the Northeast Branch can get it easily."
Catch the thief first, capture the king first, this is the best way to deal with it.
Ning Cheng didn't like to take action, but he also knew that raising an unfamiliar wolf would be better than raising an obedient dog.
Although the method is a bit cruel, it is the best method to use if you want to slowly erode the power of the Demon Slayer Division.
As long as you have the help of Xing Tianshen, it is not difficult to secretly assassinate Chen Cang.
The Demon Slayer Headquarters received the news that Lin Lin had been killed.
They did little to no investigation before pinning this shit on the Xie Yue Sect. In fact, Ningcheng also belonged to the Xie Yue Sect, so they made no mistake.
Lin Lin's death was indeed a heavy blow to the Northeast Branch.
Xing Tianshen personally led a team to the Northeast Branch to maintain order. The leaderless Northeast Branch quickly appointed a new chief. This was not a big deal and not many people paid attention.
Immediately afterwards.
One month later.
The chief of another branch close to the Northeast branch was assassinated again. The opponent's attack was quite ruthless, and he was also beheaded.
And no evidence was left at the scene.
In anger, Xing Tianshen personally led the elites of the Demon Slayer Division to investigate the matter, and launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Xie Yue Sect.
