The next day.

Six o'clock in the morning.

Lin Chong, who had finished his overnight practice, woke up on time.

Although he only had three hours of rest, it was enough for him.

Lin Chong walked out of the room with barefoots and came to the yard.

It was late autumn and early winter, and the capital was located in the north, so the weather was already quite cold, with a thin layer of white frost covered with bluestone floors.

The biting coolness spread from the soles of his feet throughout his body, but Lin Chong seemed to have not realized it. He just slowly raised his head and looked at the still dark sky.

Everything around is silent and silent, just right for thinking.

"Xu Weiyang said that Gong Yuanlong is preparing to assassinate me. With his identity and status, he should not lie."

Lin Chong wrapped his arms around his chest, his eyes deep: "The question is, why did Xu Weiyang tell me? Does he really want to make a fuss with me? Are there any other conspiracy behind it?"

"Is Xu Weiyang planning to fight against the snipe and clam, and the fisherman will benefit? When I and Wuji Sect fight each other, both will be injured, and the Yaori Sect will come forward to clean up the mess?"

"Although I don't think the Yari Sect has the courage to do that, I must be careful."

"In addition, is Chen Hanzhou aware of what Gong Yuanlong did? If he knew, why did he keep standing by? If he didn't know, has he been under the influence of Gong Yuanlong?"

Various questions are like mushrooms springing after a rain, constantly emerging in the heart of the forest.

Although Lin Chong has a keen sixth sense, and is meticulous and calm, calm and wise, he is not omniscient and omnipotent, and he does not know the answer to these questions.

However, Lin Chong is sure that Gong Yuanlong can indeed do that kind of thing.

He had had a few deals with Gong Yuanlong, and it was no exaggeration to say that the other party did not have the belly and spirit that a great master of Danjin should have.

"I can't put my own safety on others."

Lin Chong's eyes slowly became cold and firm: "No matter what conspiracy Gong Yuanlong has or what Xu Weiyang's intentions are, I should make plans in advance."

Thinking of this, Lin Chong finished his thoughts, and a little under his feet suddenly rose into the air, quietly rushing towards the distance.

He is going to meet an "old friend".

On the top of a skyscraper.

A handsome man in a purple suit stood alone on the edge of the rooftop. The bitter and fierce north wind blew in his face, blew his clothes, but the man seemed to be unaware of it.

He just lowered his head slightly and looked down at the magnificent and prosperous city under his feet.

After a while, a figure suddenly fell from the sky and landed steadily on the rooftop.

"Come?"

The handsome man, who was like a statue, had his eyes slightly turned, woke up from his trance and looked up at Lin Chong.

"What's the matter with me?"

Lin Chong's tone was calm, with no joy or anger.

The handsome man opposite was Xu Jing, who had not appeared for many days.

Compared with the past few days, Xu Jing has undergone tremendous changes.

The biggest change came from his hair. The original long shawl hair had been broken with only half an inch short hair, making him look less feminine and more masculine.

"I'm going to leave the capital."

Xu Jing put his hands in his pockets, and his expression was relaxed: "Before leaving, I was entrusted by the master, and I would like to tell you something."

"Master? Your Excellency Du Huaizhen?"

Lin Chong frowned: "Why didn't he tell me personally, but asked you to tell me?"

"Who knows."

Xu Jing shrugged: "Maybe he doesn't want to waste his time."

"Okay, tell me."

Lin Chong's thoughts changed sharply and decided to listen to it first.

Xu Jing did not speak immediately, but turned his head to look at the distant sky.

At this moment, it was at the intersection of darkness and dawn, and the orange-red light surged behind the clouds. After a night of sleeping earth, it gradually regained its vitality.

More than ten seconds later, a fiery red sun finally broke free from the horizon and emitted thousands of golden lights to show its existence to the sky, the earth, and the world.

Lin Chong and Xu Jing both faced the east, and no one spoke. The bright sunlight fell on their faces, as if they were covered with a layer of gold edges.

In a silent atmosphere, time passes by rapidly.

As the sun rises higher and higher, the sky becomes brighter and brighter, the colorful neon lights are extinguished one after another, and there are gradually more figures on the streets.

"The master has accepted five apprentices in total, and I am ranked second among them."

Xu Jing finally spoke, his voice calmly: "There is a senior brother above me, but he disappeared many years ago. Below me, there are three junior brothers. Ning Zheng is the last one, and he is the master's disciple.

”

What Xu Jing said was completely incompatible with Lin Chong, but he still listened patiently without interrupting at all.

"Among the five brothers, the master likes the third junior brother the most. The third junior brother is older than me and has higher martial arts skills than me. It is just because he started later than me and became a disciple of his skills, so he became my junior brother."

"The master always tells us that the third junior brother looks the most like him. If anyone can inherit his legacy in the future, it will definitely be the third junior brother. We are very dissatisfied."

"Twenty-three years ago, a major event happened in the martial arts world. Taking advantage of the master's retreat, the Qianji Sect annexed more than a dozen small and medium-sized sects, trying to become a super sect that surpasses the hidden sects."

"The Qianji Sect has three great masters of Danjin, with comprehensive strength comparable to the Zhenwu Sect, Tianlong Sect, and Wuji Sect. After receiving the secret report from the alliance, the master ordered the third and fourth junior brothers to go and investigate."

"For some reason, the news leaked, Qianji Sect decided to take a risk. The two junior brothers fell into a trap. In order to get the fourth junior brother to escape, the third junior brother fought against the three great masters with his own strength, and finally died. The fourth junior brother who returned seriously injured was not long after.

He died later."

"After hearing the bad news, the master sat on the sword tower for a day and a night, then left Beijing alone, and slaughtered all the senior leaders of Qianji Sect overnight."

"Because of the deaths of the third and fourth junior brothers, the master's personality has changed drastically since then. He has never taken a step forward in Zhigeyuan and has become indifferent to the affairs of the Martial Alliance until you appear."

Xu Jing let out a long sigh and looked at Lin Chong. His eyes seemed indifferent, but in fact he contained extremely complicated emotions: "My third junior brother has the same surname as you, and his name is Yuan. Have you heard of it?"

Lin Chong's face was calm and he slowly shook his head.

He understood what Xu Jing wanted to express, but found it very incredible.

"Do you think I have a blood relationship with that Lin...Mr. Lin Yuan?" he asked straightforwardly.

"It's not that I think, but that the master thinks so."

Xu Jing smiled faintly: "Otherwise there are so many geniuses in the world, why do the master treat you differently? He even thought of accepting you as his disciple?"
