Chapter 319 A hundred secrets and a sparse fish escape the net (2)
Only half of the twenty people died, and the rest were only seriously injured and hard to get rid of. Now, seeing a few powerful people dragging themselves together, they were immediately panicked. Perhaps they were not afraid of killing people, but when the death might fall on their heads, they were no different from ordinary people, and the begging for mercy was heard.
Seeing this, Li Ling didn't react much, but just glanced around coldly and asked, "Who are you? Why do you set up an ambush here and want to kill us? If you honestly explain, you can still save your life, otherwise..."
"Okay... good guys, please spare your life. We are all people from Xunyang City. We came here just to hunt..." One of them immediately came out with an explanation, but in exchange for a sneer. Then Yang Zhen's sword light flashed in his hand, and the person twitched and died while covering his throat.
This made the other people's faces turn white suddenly. It was not until this moment that they confirmed that the people in front of them not only had great skills, but also had no blink of an eye!
"I think you don't say these lie words again, it will only bring death to yourself." Li Ling still spoke calmly, without any change in his tone, "I'll ask you again, who are you and who are you responsible for here?"
But this time, these people fell into silence. Obviously, for them, those who explain their origins will inevitably be severely punished, and they feel hesitant. But Li Ling would not give them too much time to think, and immediately pointed to someone in front of him: "You say, I will give you the last chance. After counting to three, you will die if you don't say it! One!"
Without giving people too much consideration, Li Ling had already reported on his own, but made the other party even more frightened. Finally, he just kowtowed and said, "Young Master, please spare me, my young man, I am forced to do it. If I don't act on orders, the villain's wife and children will also be implicated."
Faced with such begging for mercy, Li Ling was unmoved at all and continued to count steadily: "Two-three!" As his last number was released, he still couldn't see what the other party said, so he waved his hand. Yang Zhen immediately fell and took his life before the other party begged for mercy.
In just a moment, the two of them died and were killed by others like slaughtering a chicken and a dog. This was quite powerful intimidating to the rest of the people. They all trembled violently at this time, and their eyes did not dare to have any contact with Li Ling. They had already seen that this seemingly weakest young man was the cruelest one, and the one who made the decision among the few.
No one wants to be hit by Li Ling, but someone is still unlucky and is advised by him: "You say, I hope you don't care about your life anymore. Tell the truth, at least you can save your life. One--!"
With Li Ling's remarks, the face twisted and trembled. As the words came out, his body suddenly twitched. Finally, he couldn't withstand the pressure anymore and shouted loudly: "I said... we are from Luo Tian Sect... We came to ambush you with the order of Xue Linjing and Xue's helm..." He said the truth, and he felt that the strength of his whole body completely dissipated and collapsed to the ground.
The others also relaxed after being stunned. They were very confused, afraid that someone would explain the truth, and afraid that other people would fall into themselves if they died. Now, someone would give them an explanation, so that they would not have to make things difficult for them anymore.
After seeing these people's reactions, Li Ling was convinced that this statement was true. Moreover, this was in line with his guess, which made his eyes narrow slightly: "So, you Luo Tian Sect have joined forces with Mo Li and someone within the Long family in the morning?"
Faced with this problem, the few people were silent because they didn't know what was going on. Their identities were just to teach small and medium-sized people and act according to orders. There was no way to know any further confidential information.
Li Ling swept over everyone, slightly disappointed, and then suddenly asked, "Where is Xue Linjing? Where is he?"
"Since we arrived here, Master Xue went into the city. Then someone sent us a secret order yesterday, allowing us to ambush here early this morning and wait for someone to come out of the small door here to attack and kill."
"Oh? Is this Xue Linjing's order?"
“That’s right.”
"He didn't explain anything else?"
"What he said must be our goal this time..."
"Huh?" Li Ling was slightly stunned, and then he understood something, "So you were following you all the way from Zhongyuan. Where are you from?" He was already convinced that these people were related to the group of Luotian Cultists killed on the river before.
Sure enough, the other party replied honestly: "We are the backbone of the sects in various parts of Huaibei. This time we also came together under the order of Xue Zhuang, saying that we would kill a powerful enemy in the sect. They had injured many of our brothers before."
Li Ling listened and exchanged glances with the other three people. Everyone had guessed the cause and effect before and after, and his expression became more and more alert. After a while, he continued to ask: "What else did he explain? Did he say that he was uniting with this time, and what conspiracy would be next?"
Of course, these words were not only asked by one person, but at this time these Luotian scholars looked completely confused. Obviously, these core secrets were not something they could master. In a sense, even Xue Linjing came here by chance to participate in this chaos, so it was naturally even more impossible for his subordinates to know the truth.
This time, Li Ling did not kill people because he couldn't ask. He just glanced at these people back and forth, and after seeing them for a while, he slowly let out a sigh of relief: "Now we can confirm that the Long family's accident has been planned for a long time. Maybe Mo Li did take advantage of us, but even if we didn't show up, he might have entered the Long family as planned."
Yang Chen nodded gently: "Yes, I think he was a person who could stir up chaos in the southwest many years ago. How could he not even be a playboy or a few evil slaves? So he would sing that play just to make himself more natural into the Long family, and then our appearance puts him in a shadow position that is not taken care of."
"He actually colluded with someone from the Long family and the Luotian Sect early in the morning, but the others were kept in the dark by him. So there were all kinds of changes in the Long family. As for Long Tiande's death, it was just the fuse of them causing this accident." At this time, Li Ling felt that his mind was particularly clear, and many details that had been ignored before had been seen through.
"This is a big conspiracy that has been planned for many years. The entire Long family has been counted in. Just like the impression Mo Li left on us in the Skynet, the entire Long family and we are in his big network. The question now is, in addition to Xunyang, have the various sects of Qianzhou also been attacked? Also, have they prepared for so long, and the target is just a Qianzhou, or have greater ambitions?"
"You mean southwest?" Yang Zhen was even more moved.
Unexpectedly, Li Ling shook his head: "If Luo Tian Sect really took action, I'm afraid the Southwest would not be able to satisfy their appetite."
As soon as this said, everyone changed their color again. If even the southwest could not satisfy them, it would be to disrupt the whole world! How could this be possible? Where did they get such strength and ambition?
Li Ling's eyes fell back to the city below, which was still in chaos, and exhaled a long breath and said, "To be honest, I'm just a guess. But there is always a feeling in my heart that Luo Tian Sect, a folk gang that seems to be a scabies, is much bigger than we think. The previous rebellion in Huaibei may just be a test and the beginning, and their appetite is very big."
Although some people could not agree with Li Ling's idea, the Yang brothers quickly took it seriously: "Then how should we deal with it? Will we go back to the Central Plains and report everything to the court?"
Li Ling's eyes swept over the guys in front of him who had been shocked, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that this is the only way. Let's go around the mountains from here, avoid their search and tracking, and then return to the Central Plains."
"What about these people?" Yang Zhen's eyes soon fell on the prisoners again. Since the other party had heard what he said, there seemed to be no need to keep a living.
"Kill them all except him." Li Ling said, pointing to the person who truthfully explained his identity.
Just when the others were stunned and wanted to ask for mercy, the Yang brothers and Li Moyun had already taken action quickly. Without any hesitation, they killed all the dozen people in front of them. Only the last person screamed, and their crotch was wet.
"Then he?" In the end, Yang Zhen pointed at the man again, as if he wanted to take action, but was stopped by Li Ling: "I promised not to kill him, and I always have to do it. And I believe that in this environment, he is injured again and will be able to get the account in half a day."
Yang Zhen wanted to say something else, but his brother shook his head and stopped him. Then the few people stopped talking and started to head towards the forest ahead. The panda looked around with a little cuteness. Seeing their actions, he actually followed him, and did not attack the only survivor who was still lying on the ground.
After a moment, the mountains and forests here fell completely silent, with only corpses all over the ground and messy blood showing what a terrible battle had happened here before.
But the living guy fell to the ground due to serious injuries and could not do it even if he wanted to leave. The only thing he could do was pray that someone from his side would appear quickly and save his life.
And his prayers actually worked. Before it was dark, another group of people rushed over. The leader was Xue Linjing.
