Zhang Xiujian knew very well that because of his two talismans, Ling Tian now suspected his identity.
It was possible that someone would be sent from Longhu Mountain soon. Once they learned from Ling Tian that he had used talismans from the Yin Fu Sect, there would be no way to clear his name, even if he fell into the Yellow River!
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiujian took out another talisman. This talisman was drawn on a yellowish paper, and the patterns on it were all painted with a rare green pigment.
"Fei Sha Fu!"
Zhang Xiujian quickly injected his true essence into the talisman. The talisman was ignited and then he slammed it fiercely onto the ground beneath his feet.
The next moment, a gale force wind, reaching level eleven or twelve, suddenly spread out from the talisman. Along with the gale, there were sand and stones everywhere. Blown by the wind, these stones felt like knives when they hit people.
Ling Tian also turned his head slightly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhang Xiujian turned and ran!
Relying on his excellent Qinggong and his familiarity with the mountain terrain, he disappeared in an instant.
Ling Tian watched Zhang Xiujian's figure disappear into the night from afar, a cold smile appearing on his lips: "Want to run? It's not that easy!"
At this moment, the back mountain of Longhu Mountain was already lit up with scattered lights. Many people were holding flashlights, rushing towards the courtyard where the guest rooms were located from the mountaintop, the mountainside, and all directions.
The first to arrive was Zhang Caifeng. Caifeng had been infatuated that night and missed Ling Tian, finding it hard to sleep. So, she came to the courtyard and gazed from the mountainside at the location of Ling Tian's guest room.
She was contemplating whether to take advantage of the night to find Ling Tian and have a secret intimate moment. The thought alone made her feel too excited.
As the saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a maid, and a maid is definitely not as good as forbidden fruit.
However, just as Zhang Caifeng was having a sweet dream, several white lights flashed in the courtyard. These white lights were extremely dazzling, illuminating almost half of the back mountain!
Zhang Caifeng was greatly alarmed. She had fought alongside Ling Tian many times, and she had a deep impression of the white light when the Vajra Talisman was detonated. Seeing this white light, Caifeng knew something must have happened.
So, Caifeng quickly arrived at the courtyard where the guest rooms were located, only to see Ling Tian standing with his arms crossed in the messy courtyard.
"Ling Tian, are you alright!"
Zhang Caifeng immediately threw herself into Ling Tian's arms and then carefully examined him, afraid that Ling Tian might have been injured.
"I'm fine, I'm completely fine. Don't you know your husband's capabilities?
It's just some petty person causing trouble..."
Just then, several more figures appeared in the courtyard. Ling Tian looked up and saw that the person who arrived was Zhang Daoyan, the grand-uncle of the Sect Leader Zhang Daoyun.
"Grand-uncle, you're here!" Zhang Caifeng quickly wriggled out of Ling Tian's embrace and greeted him with a blushing face.
"Elder, why have you come?" Ling Tian also asked very humbly.
"A disciple just reported that something might have happened here. The Sect Leader already knows about this and has asked me to come and investigate!
Ling Tian, what exactly happened..."
Before Zhang Daoyan could finish speaking, Ling Tian took a swift step to the door and stopped a Longhu Mountain disciple who was about to enter the room.
"You can't enter the room. There's the Bone-Adhering Soul-Slaying Incense inside. If you enter rashly, something serious will happen!
Wait a moment, have the people around you disperse, then cover your mouths and noses, and quickly open the doors and windows. You can enter the room after two hours!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Daoyan's brows immediately furrowed. He had heard of the notorious "Bone-Adhering Soul-Slaying Incense." He never expected that such a thing would appear within the territory of Longhu Mountain!
"Ling Tian, who exactly attacked you, and who used this sinister and poisonous incense?"
"Elder, it was Zhang Xiujian!"
"What, how dare that brat!" Zhang Daoyan was now extremely enraged. After all, their Sect Leader Zhang Daoyun's life was still in Ling Tian's hands.
Although Zhang Daoyun's injuries had significantly improved, to completely clear the corpse poison from his body, he still relied on Ling Tian to personally take action.
This person dared to threaten Ling Tian, which was tantamount to threatening their Sect Leader's life.
"What happened to Zhang Xiujian? Who gave him the courage to do this!" Zhang Daoyan said angrily.
"Grand-uncle, yesterday when Ling Tian arrived, outside the mountain gate, Zhang Xiujian kept provoking Ling Tian and even attacked Ling Tian with common and fire talismans!"
"What, how could this happen? Why didn't you report it to me!"
"I originally intended to mention this matter after my father's injuries were healed, but I didn't expect this fellow to have such audacity!" Zhang Caifeng said with a pout.
"Ling Tian, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!" In Zhang Daoyan's opinion, this incident should have been a bloody case triggered by young people fighting over a woman.
However, Ling Tian said with a serious expression: "Elder, this matter is not simple!
That scoundrel Zhang Xiujian, when he attacked me, used two types of talismans. One of them contained a spell called the 'Immortal Binding Rope,' which could freeze a person on the spot!
The other talisman is called the 'Yin Lei Fu'!
Elder, with your extensive knowledge, I believe you should know what these two talismans signify!"
"Are you sure you didn't misread it?
Ling Tian, it's not that I doubt you, but this matter is indeed of great consequence!"
"Elder, I can confirm that I did not misread it. The talisman Zhang Xiujian used was indeed the Yin Lei Fu, and he even admitted it himself!
I think you should know what this means!"
"Damn it, this kid is an inside mole! Those bastards from the Yin Fu Sect, they're still lingering!"
Zhang Daoyan's eyes turned red, as this matter had struck a nerve.
The Yin Fu Sect was already sworn enemies with their Longhu Mountain. However, throughout history, people from the Yin Fu Sect had repeatedly sent disciples to impersonate Taoist priests, infiltrate Longhu Mountain, and steal the sword techniques and talisman skills of Longhu Mountain.
After they learned these skills, they immediately defected from the sect. What's more, some even used the name of Longhu Mountain to commit evil deeds and crimes outside.
Hundreds of years ago, Longhu Mountain established a rule that any person from the Yin Fu Sect found impersonating a Taoist priest and infiltrating Longhu Mountain would be executed without mercy!
Unexpectedly, today, people from the Yin Fu Sect almost repeated their old tricks. If Ling Tian hadn't arrived this time, they would still be in the dark.
What made Zhang Daoyan even more fearful was that Zhang Xiujian was not an ordinary disciple. If Ling Tian hadn't appeared, perhaps in a few years, Zhang Xiujian might have even become the next Sect Leader of Longhu Mountain.
Just imagine, a disciple of the Yin Fu Sect becoming the Sect Leader of Longhu Mountain, what a terrifying thought!
