Lin Chu narrowed his eyes: "If you leave Jinyan Peak, you will lose your appearance."
Shan Yan looks like a young girl in her mid-twenties, but her actual age is already over fifty.
She once said that once she leaves Jinyan Peak, she will lose the magical blessing of the Lord of Lingxi Palace. Therefore, everyone on Jinyan Peak has never thought of leaving.
Shan Yan's eyes narrowed slightly, and his lips slowly raised a bitter smile: "Actually, I have always known that immortality is nothing more than a lie made of poison."
She took a deep breath: "On the fifteenth day of every month, the palace master will ask us to take the elixir together. I am old, and I was miserable and alone in my early years. I have long been no longer involved in this world of mortals. Suddenly I have this ageless appearance.
I'll be intoxicated, but I'm just deceiving myself."
Lin Chu was not surprised by her remarks.
All over the world, those in power have special means of controlling their subordinates.
Emperors and generals rely on the power of life and death, while Jianghu factions mostly rely on poison.
The first time Lin Chu heard Shan Yan mention the matter of immortal appearance, she already guessed the truth. However, the matter had nothing to do with her, and she had no regrets about life or death.
Lin Chu looked at her: "If you go down the mountain, you might die."
He said with a smile: "Everyone has to die. I would rather die in peace than die with my head in a different place and my body intact."
Lin Chu nodded: "Then let's go together."
"This young master and all the maids have been dealt with."
There were cheers from the crowd, and Lin Chu raised his eyes to see. The maids on Jinyan Peak were dead or injured, and had lost their fighting ability.
She squinted her eyes. The master of Lingxi Palace was definitely not a kind person. She thought that all the maids in the mountains were masters. However, she never thought that most of these maids had no internal strength and did not understand martial arts at all.
Although when the men at the foot of the mountain were captured, their internal strength was dispersed with soft tendons, but after all they were all powerful men. Once they resisted, how could these elderly people be their opponents?
Lin Chu felt a little uneasy in his heart. The master of Lingxi Palace did not seem to be someone who could make such a mistake. Could it be that he was too confident in himself?
"Shan Yan, don't you maids in the mountains practice martial arts?"
"How is that possible?" Shanyan shook his head: "There are many experts with superb internal strength on the mountain."
Lin Chu frowned slightly, and her uneasiness was confirmed. A master with superb internal strength suddenly became without any internal strength, which was... quite strange.
"Young Master." Shan Yan looked at Lin Chu, his eyes struggling.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"Shan Ling is the most powerful person on the mountain, and her martial arts skills are no less than those of the palace master. But..."
Lin Chu's heart trembled, but just now, Shan Yan defeated Shan Ling with just one palm.
She suddenly turned around to look, but there was no one under the eaves of the corridor where Shan Ling had fallen.
Lin Chu's eyes flashed with red light, and the good spirit was gone! She was just pretending to be dead!
What...is she going to do?
"Sir, what should I do?" Shanyan felt quite uneasy.
"Don't panic." Lin Chu said calmly: "Everything has not reached the worst stage yet."
"Mr. Lin, when are we going down the mountain?" Everyone gathered towards Lin Chu, their eyes eager for a moment.
"No hurry." Lin Chu narrowed his eyes: "Wait."
What are you waiting for? No more words.
"How can you wait?"
Once the enthusiasm in men's eyes is ignited, it is difficult to extinguish it, and the fire burns blazingly in their chests.
"The tricks of these witches on Jinyan Peak are very powerful. Who knows what other powerful things are hidden in the secrets? What if they come to their senses later..."
"No, strike while the iron is hot and go down the mountain early!"
