"My sect's Seventh Elder is well-known for his fame. I believe Brother Li has heard of his reputation. Since it was promised by him, it must be true." Wei Zheng said calmly.

Li Gui pondered for a moment before slowly nodding and said, "Then I will decide for myself. I will let your sect handle this matter as it pleases."

"That's right." Wei Zheng smiled, then said resentfully, "But I just heard from Brother Li that the fairy identity is guarded by her. If we want to kill Lin Xing, that would be quite a difficult problem."

"Brother Wei, don't be impatient. I have a plan." Li Yu said.

"Oh? You might as well tell me. " Wei Zheng's expression faltered as he asked, seemingly interested.

After that, Li Rou put her lips next to his ear. Although her lips were trembling, she could not make out her voice. Before long, Wei Zheng's face was full of joy.

The scene shifted to Lin Xing. After he entered the mansion, he went straight to the main hall.

At this moment, everyone in the general's manor was gathered in the great hall. The soldiers and servants were either squatting in a corner or making preparations for battle.

"Young Master."

When the sound of footsteps entered their ears, it immediately caused their taut strings to twitch. They reflexively took out their spirit sabers and wanted to go up and fight, but after seeing the appearance of the person, they breathed a sigh of relief and retrieved their sabers.

"Young master, you can't go out at this special moment. It's too dangerous out there. The people who killed you are everywhere." The young master came forward and said anxiously.

Lin Qi waved his sleeves, and his face was as gloomy as water. He ignored him and sat down on a bench.

He raised his eyes to observe the shadows of the people in the hall. There were women crying in a corner. Some of the armored warriors were attacking with swords. If anyone rushed in, they would be the last barrier.

Everyone's faces were filled with fear, and their expressions were ugly.

Gu Yuan was also present at the scene. He stood still, his face equally gloomy. Even when Lin Xing stepped in, his expression didn't change much. From the beginning to the end, he didn't utter a single word.

"What's the situation?" Only then did Lin Xing set his gaze on Ashan, and asked with a frown on his face.

"Hai." Ah Shan let out a low sigh, his face was gloomy and gloomy. He took a deep breath and said, "Currently, as long as we are in the General's Estate, no one has come back alive. Now, we are encircled by the cultivators of the two Sects, unable to even fly out a single bird. Furthermore, all of our business outside is also paralyzed. "

"Are they serious? This is a tempo that is going to kill us all. " Lin Qi's eyes turned cold as he mumbled to himself. His arm that was resting on the table could not help but tremble slightly.

"Yes, Young Master, you should hurry up and think of a countermeasure. I also heard that Lu Kaiji brought eight hundred thousand elites to our capital to seek revenge for the murder of his son. He ignored the persuasion of the Heaven Ascension Sect and was determined to start a war with our Azure Silver Country. Ah Shan could not help but ask despite knowing that even Lin Qi was powerless to stop him.

"Oh. My father should have received the news as well. Has he returned? " Lin Xing furrowed his brows and asked.

Gu Yuan, on the other hand, answered first, "Foster father originally wanted to lead the army back, but he was detained by Liu Fengyu and Qian Que."

Lin Xing tilted his gaze towards Gu Yuan and said indifferently, "This is good as well. Father will not be able to help if he leads the army back, and I don't want to implicate him."

"Young master, what do you mean by this? Are you giving up on resisting?" Ashan asked in a daze, leaning back.

Everyone looked at him with disappointment. Even if Lin Xing gave up resisting, he would still have no chance at all with the blemish on his character. It would be better to risk it all and drag him down with them.

"Give up on resistance? I haven't even born a person who can make me wait for death to come. " Lin Qi sneered coldly.

Hearing this, the disappointment in everyone's eyes turned into confusion. Could it be that in this kind of ambush, Lin Xing still had some tricks up his sleeve?

"How is the fairy?" Lin Xing asked again.

After Ah Shan calmed his emotions, he scratched his head and replied: "After the two great sects' army pushed down their borders, in order to avoid a fire from burning their bodies, more than half of Fairy's envoys have left in the past two days. Only a small portion of them remained by Fairy's side. However, the past two days have been quite abnormal for Fairy Lin. She often came out to walk around the Mansion. "

Upon hearing these words, Lin Qi felt a tinge of emotion in his heart. This brat, Liang, was actually trying to protect the general's manor.

He had never met this brat in his life and had only met him twice. He was actually able to extend a helping hand in this moment of crisis. This caused him to feel endless gratitude and even tears in his eyes.

His thoughts quickly came to this point. It seemed like Lin Xing had still underestimated this brat's worth. To be able to make the two great sects angry without saying a word, it showed that her background was not as simple as being a disciple of the Gate of Heavenly Mystery.

"Although we can't leave the manor, with Fairy Maiden here, we are temporarily safe. Everyone can stay in the manor as per usual, everything will continue as usual." Lin Xing said.

"Understood."

Although everyone was at a loss, they still replied at the same time with miserable cries coming from the group of children and women squatting in the corners.

They were all servants of the general's manor for generations, so their loyalty to the manor was obvious. No one wanted to see the manor fall into an eternal disaster.

Then, with a calm and composed expression, Lin Qi strode out of the main hall and returned to his room.

After he left, everyone returned to their posts, and their daily lives remained the same. In addition, two courageous and experienced soldiers ran to stand guard in front of the manor gate.

Such an abnormal action from the general's manor naturally caused the group of Dark Dwellers to be at a loss. Some people suggested killing the two armored guards, but were stopped by Wei Zheng with a wave of his hand.

That was because the two warriors were confident. Even under the gazes of so many vicious Dark Dwellers, they were still able to remain calm. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were reckless.

But where did their courage come from? Wei Zheng and Li Fei were at a loss as to what to do.

Could it be driven by that fairy? This possibility was not non-existent.

All of the inns and restaurants on the outskirts of the General's Estate were already rented out by the cultivators of the two sects. At every moment, there would be countless pairs of eyes watching the general's Estate's every move.

At night, after Lin Xing comforted them during the day, the taut strings of the manor's people fell off. They all returned to their rooms and laid on their beds, snoring loudly. Even the cultivators who were besieged outside could hear the deafening snores.

This caused them to be greatly taken aback. Could it be that they didn't know that this group of people were about to die? The butcher's blade was already at his neck, yet he was still able to remain so calm. They couldn't help but feel admiration for him.
