15. Deserted Temple And Old Taoist

Lin Fei glanced at the system panel.

He had just used the Nine Shadow Saber Technique to kill the cloaked man, who was also a master at the fourth level of Body Refining.

However, there was not much progress in the Nine Shadow Saber Technique.

He had already reached the transcendence level of the technique after all.

It would be difficult to make any further progress without some opportunity or chance.

This was normal for any martial arts technique.

Once it reached the transcendence level, it was not easy to reach perfection by effort alone.

It required some opportunities and factors.

At the moment, Bai Ying and Tieshan were anxiously waiting.

They did not know Lin Fei's situation.

Suddenly, Bai Ying's quick eyes caught sight of a familiar figure on the road ahead.

It was Lin Fei!

"You're alright, Second Young Master?" Bai Ying and Tieshan hurriedly approached and scrutinized Lin Fei.

Lin Fei smiled and said, "It's done. I've taken care of the Nine Rings Mountains."

"From now on, when the Lin family caravan passes through Nine Rings Mountains, we won't have to pay any more money or face any obstacles."

"What? Is it really done? That's like turning the whole Nine Rings Mountains upside down!" Bai Ying's eyes widened in surprise.

Others might not know, but Bai Ying was well aware of the difficulties to deal with bandits in the Nine Rings Mountains.

Even when Old Master Bai was escorting the caravan, he could not make sure to do everything perfectly and had to pay a lot of money to the various mountain strongholds in Nine Rings Mountains just to ensure a safe passage.

And now?

Lin Fei went up the mountain and solved everything, and the Lin family caravan won't have to pay a penny anymore.

"Alright, let's go. We're still far from Su City and there are still other bandits that need to be dealt with along the way..." Lin Fei was not overconfident.

He knew that Nine Rings Mountains was only the first stop.

Days went by, and the caravan had been on the road for four days.

They were getting close to Su City.

Along the way, Lin Fei almost swept everything before him.

All the bandits were taken care of by Lin Fei, and he obtained promises from them that they would no longer trouble the Lin family caravan in the future.

Even Lin Fei had obtained a title called the "Fast Saber Asura"!

Asura meant that Lin Fei had killed quite a few people. The saber would surely see blood when Lin Fei draw it!

This was also a characteristic of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique. The saber was just too fast.

If one couldn't block it, it will die.

For those in the martial arts world, having a reputation was actually a kind of honor.

Many disciples of the Nine Profound Sect went out to explore the martial arts world.

If they didn't have any reputation, they were probably not very strong.

On this day, the sky was getting dark. But they hadn't made it to Su City.

"There is a deserted temple ahead. Let's spend the night there and go to Su City tomorrow."

Lin Fei now has absolute prestige in the caravan.

Naturally, everyone followed his lead.

So, the caravan came to the deserted temple to rest.

There were actually people in the temple.

An old man in a gray Daoist robe and a clever-looking boy of fifteen or sixteen.

But strangely, behind the old man, there were also five burly men in black cloaks, with indistinct features and a cold demeanor.

It seemed like they were guards. But it also seemed somewhat unusual.

There was a faint smell of incense in the temple.

Lin Fei was about to speak.

At this moment, Bai Ying's face changed dramatically, and she shouted, "Quick, hold your breath! There is something wrong with the incense, retreat!"

As soon as Bai Ying spoke, Lin Fei almost instinctively withdrew.

Some people were slow to retreat and collapsed on the ground.

They were completely weak and couldn't even move.

Lin Fei was shocked and immediately asked, "What's going on?"

Bai Ying was also a little frightened, but she said in a deep voice, "My father once warned us to be careful when encountering monks and Taoists while traveling the martial arts world. 'If there is any strange fragrance, hold your breath and stay away.' I didn't expect this incense to be poisonous..."

Lin Fei's face turned dark.

These are all experiences gained by the old veteran, Master Bai, who had roamed around the martial world.

Obviously, the person who ignited the incense and poisoned his people must be the old Taoist inside the temple.

"Archers."

Lin Fei called the archers from the caravan. The arrows were aimed at the old Taoists and others inside the temple.

"Where did you come from, you wild stray Taoists? How dare you poison my man in the temple?"Lin Fei shouted loudly towards the temple.

"Swish."

The old Taoist inside the temple suddenly opened his eyes. A hint of blood seemed to flash through his eyes.

"Hehe, you are cautious. But since you are here, then stay here."

The old Taoist waved his hand.

Suddenly, four sturdy figures walked out from behind him.

"Whoosh."

These four sturdy figures walked out of the temple directly and charged toward Lin Fei and others.

"Fire!"

Lin Fei gave the order.

The arrows flew toward the four people like raindrops.

"Clang clang."

However, when the arrows hit the four people, they made a sound like metal clashing.

It was as if they had hit an iron plate.

The arrows fell to the ground one after another.

These arrows had no effect on the four people.

"hard martial arts?"

Lin Fei was slightly surprised.

Hard martial arts were difficult to cultivate.

But now, four hard martial arts experts suddenly appeared.

It was really strange.

The martial artists from the escort bureau also drew out their big sabers and stepped forward to block the four people.

These four people did not move quickly. They were even a bit stiff. But every punch and kick had tremendous power.

"Boom."

If one was not careful, their chest would be shattered, and one would not survive.

"Clang."

When the big sabers of the martial artists from the escort bureau chopped at these people, it was like chopping at a wall.

They could not chop through them or hurt them at all.

"Whoosh."

Lin Fei did not hesitate.

He pulled out his big saber from his back.
