Lin Yan decided to go to the mountains near the West City to hunt ferocious beasts, but the departure time was set for tonight, the latest chapter of the online game The World Unparalleled.
Because Lin Yan had made some calculations, if he set out again tomorrow morning, there was no guarantee that he would be back home before dark. So he simply set out now and spent a few hours to reach the mountains and survey the terrain. This would save a lot of time and hunt. If everything goes well, maybe we can bring back the ferocious beast inner elixir before the sun sets tomorrow afternoon and sell it at the alchemy shop.
But when Lin Yan was about to leave, Ye Xi'er went and said that she wanted to go too, saying that she wanted to experience the atmosphere of hunting ferocious beasts with Lin Yan.
Lin Yan smiled and said: "Xier, aren't you afraid of that kind of bloody hunting scene?"
Ye Xier looked obviously hesitant, and finally said: "I don't want to stay at home alone at night, I am a little scared. Only when I am with you can I feel at ease."
At the end of the sentence, Ye Xi'er's voice was as thin as a mosquito.
Seeing Ye Xi'er's shy look with her head lowered, Lin Yan couldn't help but pull Ye Xi'er into his arms, hugged her tightly, and kissed Ye Xi'er lightly on her forehead.
Although he and Ye Xi'er lived under the same roof, Ye Xi'er and he slept in different rooms from the beginning to the end. Seeing Ye Xi'er's shy look at this moment, Lin Yan almost couldn't control himself and thought about it. Please be gentle with Ye Xier.
"Should we get some torches and oil before we leave?" Ye Xi'er felt her whole body burning, but thinking that there was still business to do, she hurriedly changed the subject.
Lin Yan said: "Well, prepare the torch, put on your coarse clothes, and then you can set off."
Lin Yan was not worried about taking Ye Xi'er with him. Anyway, he was only going to hunt down the ferocious beasts at the Xiantian and Mortal Realm levels, so there would not be much danger from the campus all-around master.
After getting ready, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
The starry sky at night was very dazzling, and the moon was bright. There was no need to light a torch to move forward. The two of them followed a path and started heading towards the mountains in a remote area of Xicheng.
There are many ferocious beasts and ferocious beasts active in the mountains, and many hunting teams from Tiandi City will go there. However, due to the vast area of Xicheng, there are still a lot of ferocious beasts surviving, which can meet the hunting needs.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, the two of them had reached the foot of the mountain, then lit the torch and started going up the mountain.
Lin Yan was in front, pulling Ye Xi'er and heading deeper into the mountain step by step.
It probably had rained a few days ago, and the terrain just up the mountain was relatively steep, so the two of them walked very slowly.
Despite being careful, when passing by a fir forest, Ye Xi'er's feet suddenly stepped on the soft and slippery fir leaves. Her feet slipped and her ankle was sprained. Fortunately, Lin Yan kept holding Ye Xi'er tightly. It was only with his hands that Ye Xi'er didn't roll down the hillside.
However, Ye Xi'er's right foot was twisted badly, and the ankle was red and swollen, causing Ye Xi'er to frown in pain.
Although Ye Xi'er is a warrior of the second level of the Sky Realm, all her skills were lost to her by the master who raised her in Jinghangzhai before she died. Ye Xi'er herself does not have any martial arts skills. , so not only is the real strength far less than the second level of the Sky Control Realm, but the body is not as flexible and strong as other warriors.
When Ye Xi'er sprained her foot, she had to endure severe pain just like other ordinary people.
Lin Yan first checked and confirmed that Ye Xi'er's ankle was only sprained and not dislocated. He felt relieved, and then began to knead Ye Xi'er's ankle to speed up the circulation of Qi and blood.
Five minutes later, Lin Yan put on Ye Xi'er's shoes and socks, and then picked up Ye Xi'er.
It would definitely not work to take Ye Xi'er to hunt ferocious beasts in the mountains, so Lin Yan decided to go home first with Ye Xi'er in his arms.
"Lin Yan, I'm really useless. I can twist my ankle even when I walk." Knowing that she had hindered Lin Yan, Ye Xi'er whispered, her expression full of apology.
"Fool," Lin Yan smiled and patted Ye Xier's head, "Xier, what are you thinking about? Let's go home first and apply some medicinal wine to make your foot injury heal faster."
Then, Lin Yan hugged Ye Xi'er, used his ability to fly in the air, and returned straight back.
When it was nearly ten o'clock, we were already less than a thousand meters away from home.
Passing through the bamboo forest at the foot of Jinghangzhai Mountain, Lin Yan suddenly saw a blazing fire in the direction of the courtyard!
Ye Xi'er also saw the fire at this time and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Lin Yan, isn't that where we live?"
Lin Yan could see clearly that the house on fire was indeed where they lived!
Lin Yan's expression changed, and his cold voice was as cold as ice: "Damn it, that woman Xie Si is really vicious!"
Ye Xi'er didn't know why, but when she saw her home turned into a sea of fire, she was sad and angry, and said: "Who is so black-hearted that he would set fire to the house?"
Lin Yan said coldly: "If we hadn't happened to come out, this fire would have burned not just the house, but us as well."
After finishing speaking, Lin Yan arranged Ye Xi'er in a hidden corner deep in the bamboo forest and said, "Xi'er, you wait here, I will come as soon as I can."
"Hey, Lin Yan." Ye Xi'er's face was full of worry.
"It's okay, I'm hiding it but they're hiding it. If I can't beat them, I'll run away. I won't fight them stupidly."
Lin Yan comforted Ye Xi'er, then jumped up and quickly disappeared into the bamboo forest.
"Hmph, don't you just want to suddenly set fire to the house and force me to come out? Then you will set up an ambush around the house and wait for me to fall into a trap?"
Lin Yan's face was extremely gloomy and he whispered coldly.
Because after going around the bamboo forest, he found that the entire house was burning with fire. Apparently, the house was surrounded by people and set on fire from all directions at the same time.
There were people guarding the open space all around.
Among them, there was a big man standing in front of the main entrance. By the light of the fire, Lin Yan easily recognized that this big man was the guard who was following Xie Si.
There is no doubt that he was being followed on his way back from the mall in the afternoon, and the other party took advantage of the time when he and Ye Xi'er were asleep at ten o'clock in the evening to set fire to the house, and then arranged for people to stand guard around and prepare. Catch him and Ye Xi'er who escaped.
And all of this was naturally the idea of that vicious woman Xie Si.
Lin Yan believed that Xie Si arranged this scene to catch himself and Ye Xi'er alive.
"God is not as good as man. It happened that Xi'er and I left tonight. Otherwise, just leaving Xi'er alone in the house would have been very dangerous."
Lin Yan felt lucky, but now he hated Xie Si even more.
However, when Lin Yan circled around and looked at all the people standing in the open space, he did not find Xie Si.
"Xie Si bastard, I will spare your life first."
Lin Yan clenched his fists and then rushed out from the shadow corner, like a ferocious cheetah hunting prey.
Two battle swords were inserted into the gray mist array, quickly forming a starburst array. Then, after being tightened by Lin Yan, a silver lightsaber transformed from the starburst array, and was firmly grasped by Lin Yan. superior.
Lin Yan directly used his most powerful attack so far.
The silver lightsaber suddenly rushed forward with his body, like a poisonous snake spitting out its core. After spitting out a stream of silver light, it cut the big Han Lin Er, who was still sneering in the open space waiting to watch the show, into two halves with one sword strike!
Immediately afterwards, Lin Yan controlled the silver lightsaber to quickly kill the two people standing on the left and right sides of Lin Er, and then with a cold face, like a bloodthirsty demon from hell, his eyes were only cold, without any mercy, and he spoke straight Kill to the side.
At this moment, Lin Yan had only one thought in his mind: Whoever set the fire, even if he just poured kerosene on the corner of the house, must die, and no one will be left alive!
There were a total of twelve people who followed Lin Erlai to set fire to the house. Most of them were around the first level of the Sky Control Realm. This kind of strength was actually quite good. Normally, there would be no problem in self-protection, but Lin Yan's appearance was too great. Quickly, and regardless of whether there was a sneak attack or not, he immediately rushed forward after spotting a person, slashing hard with the silver lightsaber. In almost an instant, Lin Yan killed six of the twelve people!
All six people who died had their heads split open in the middle and their bodies split into two.
Only then did the remaining six realize that there was no one in the house. The target they wanted to deal with had arrived outside the house at some point and was now operating on them, so they hurriedly used their flying skills and flew from different directions. , want to escape.
But they still couldn't outrun Lin Yan.
Lin Yan held the silver lightsaber tightly as if he was holding a death scythe. As his body leapt forward, the silver lightsaber continued to harvest lives.
The remaining six people only flew less than thirty meters at most before being split in half by Lin Yan's sword.
Thirteen people, including Lin Er, turned into twenty-six and a half bloody corpses on the ground.
After confirming that there was no one alive, Lin Yan withdrew his silver lightsaber and began to throw the corpse directly into the fire.
The last thing to be thrown away was Lin Er's body, but when Lin Yan dragged the body, he accidentally found a maroon token on Lin Er's waist with the word "Lin" written on it. He understood that this was Lin Yan put away the identity document necessary to enter and exit Tiandi City, and then put Lin Er's body into the fire with his feet.
After destroying the body, Lin Yan immediately found Ye Xier in the bamboo forest.
Looking at the half-burnt house, Ye Xier was very sad and choked up.
"Lin Yan, everything in the house is gone, and the home is gone." Ye Xi'er lay on Lin Yan's shoulder, her body trembling.
Lin Yan hugged Ye Xi'er tightly and comforted softly: "Okay Xi'er, don't be sad. If the house is gone, it will be gone. As long as everyone is fine, it will be fine."
Ye Xi'er raised her head from Lin Yan's arms, with tears in her eyes, biting her lips and whispered: "All the jewelry and clothes you bought for me today were burned."
"It's okay, I will buy you more beautiful jewelry and clothes in the future." Lin Yan comforted.
Ye Xi'er said: "I don't cherish them because they are expensive, but they were given to me by you, but they are gone all of a sudden. I feel really bad."
Lin Yan held Ye Xi'er in his arms and looked at the blazing fire with terrifyingly cold eyes.
After calming down Ye Xi'er's emotions, Lin Yan immediately left the place with Ye Xi'er on his back.
After all, if Xie Sijiu couldn't wait for news from Lin Er, he would definitely know that tonight's operation failed, and maybe a more powerful opponent would be sent over soon.
