Chapter 48

“Poof”

The black-clothed figure quickly climbed up from the ground, suddenly knelt heavily on one knee, and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He lifted his head to look at Lin Yuan approaching slowly, his eyes filled with horror.

Who the hell said this was an ordinary warrior who had just broken through the blood exchange not long ago due to unknown adventures?

Originally following along just fine, suddenly everything went blank before his eyes, and the other party appeared in front of him. With a cultivation of the fivefold blood exchange, he was kicked away before he could react.

Feeling the severe pain in his chest and possibly breaking four or five ribs, causing a sharp twinge of pain.

Lin Yuan coldly stared at the other party.

From the moment he entered Black Mountain City, he immediately noticed that more than one person was secretly following him, lurking behind him.

Although it was thought to be secretive enough.

But to Lin Yuan, it seemed like a blatant tail.

“I…”

The black-clothed figure’s gaze flickered uncertainly.

Seeing him remain silent, Lin Yuan’s expression became impatient.

“Never mind, suddenly I don’t want to know anymore.”

“Just wait a minute, I am…”

Sensing the icy killing intent in Lin Yuan’s eyes, the black-clothed figure’s face suddenly changed. Just as he was about to speak, he was kicked lightly on the temple, neck twisted, and instantly asphyxiated.

Staring at the tattoo revealed on the corpse’s neck.

Lin Yuan narrowed his eyes, sneered, glanced sideways into the darkness at some obscure eaves, and then walked away confidently.

After he disappeared.

A few figures dressed in black clothes only appeared not far away.

They silently approached the corpse, exchanged a few glances with each other, all seeing the astonishment and solemnity in each other’s eyes.

“When he made a move, did you see clearly?” one person frowned.

“No, I only vaguely saw a shadow… and when I came to my senses, this guy had already been kicked away,” the twitching corner of another person’s mouth said.

“Who said he was a skin refinement warrior?”

“Anyway, it wasn’t me…”

“This person should be in the mid-stage of the blood exchange. Facing that Lin Yuan without even any resistance, if I’m not mistaken, he should only be…. sixteen years old?” a slender figure clicked his tongue.

This cultivation speed is almost comparable to the Saintess, isn’t it?

Ji Dongge, who was carefully nurtured by entering Daluo Sect at a young age, had already entered the True Gang Realm at the age of sixteen!

“Indeed, he is sixteen years old, this will not be false.” others asserted firmly.

Lin Yuan’s background is not difficult to investigate, after all, he grew up in Black Mountain City, and there are plenty of people who know him.

At this moment.

Someone squatted down, lifted the collar at the neck of the corpse, exposing a fierce blood-colored skull tattoo, and their gaze slightly narrowed.

“Blood Garment Tower!”

“Weird, why would the Blood Garment Tower target Lin Yuan?”

“The Blood Garment Tower is notorious for killing and looting at the slightest provocation, and its reputation is even worse than our Daluo Sect. Perhaps the spies in Black Mountain City have unintentionally discovered Lin Yuan’s hidden strength and sent someone to explore the secret?”

They didn’t know that this was almost close to the truth.

“Thank goodness the Saintess only asked us to secretly protect him… and didn’t have any other intentions,” someone said thankfully.

A warrior like the mid-stage blood exchange who can make instant kills, they, even if there were more people, would only be able to hold on for a little while longer.

Maybe not the True Gang Realm, but at least the fivefold or sixfold blood exchange.

There are always martial arts geniuses in the world, almost invincible among those of the same realm, like the Saintess, she could already confront the ninefold blood exchange when she first entered the blood exchange!

Although such people are few, they do exist.

In fact.

They also discovered the killers from the Blood Garment Tower.

Rumors are circulating that Lin Yuan personally resolved the situation before even needing to take action. It must be said that this person was overly confident in his hiding techniques, as he subtly emitted some killing intent that was hard to ignore…

“By the way, Lin Yuan seemed to have spotted us just now, right? Is he… warning us?”

Suddenly, someone spoke up, and immediately, everyone fell silent.

The next day.

As the sky began to brighten, Lin Xianyu opened the door and stepped out from the house, stretching lazily.

The small protrusion on her chest was starting to take shape, revealing a hint of delicate curves.

Recalling her cultivation before sleeping last night, Lin Xianyu’s big eyes revealed a smile as she clenched her small fists with determination.

She had officially become a Skin Refinement Warrior!

If those troublemakers dared to come again like before, she would definitely beat them until they lost their way!!

In the days when her older brother was away, Lin Xianyu followed the “Master Sister” every day for training, which, in Ji Dongge’s words, meant focusing on solidifying the foundation of her physical body.

So over the first three days,

Lin Xianyu followed the orders of her Master Sister to purchase many medicinal materials every day to nourish her body through medicinal baths.

She had been worried that her other housemate, Ji Ling, would suspect something.

But she quickly discovered that Ji Ling seemed to have no curiosity about where she got the medicinal bath recipe from… rendering all the reasons she had come up with useless.

Ji Ling even suggested they bathe together and was willing to cover all the costs of the medicinal materials!

So, after discussing with Ji Dongge, Lin Xianyu promptly agreed without hesitation.

Although bathing together felt a bit embarrassing…

But hey, it was free!

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, Lin Xianyu blinked her eyes and looked towards the figure quietly sitting and drinking tea in the courtyard.

She instinctively rubbed her eyes to confirm she wasn’t seeing things, then jumped for joy and ran over: “Brother, when did you come back?”

“Last night. I saw that you were asleep, so I didn’t wake you up.”

Lin Yuan smiled, observing his sister’s obviously increased vitality compared to before, as well as the faint smell of medicine emanating from her.

It seemed she hadn’t been idle these past few days.

At this moment,

Ji Ling, rubbing her sleepy eyes, lazily walked out of the house and was slightly surprised to see Lin Yuan and Lin Xianyu in the courtyard.

“Oh, Young Master Lin is back?”

She inexplicably felt a little guilty.

After all, these days, she had been bathing with Lin Xianyu. Anyone could tell that the medicinal bath was definitely a special recipe left behind by Lin Yuan. So, Ji Ling couldn’t help but promise to cover all the costs of the medicinal materials, getting Lin Xianyu’s approval…

And to be honest, the results were remarkable, benefiting her as a Blood Exchange Warrior!

“Your family hasn’t arrived yet?”

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow, glancing at her.

“Soon…”

Ji Ling felt a bit embarrassed, especially since she had stayed for free for several days.

Not a single copper coin had been spent on promised accommodation fees yet.

“It’s okay, I won’t rush you out. Stay as long as you like, and just pay up when you leave.”

Lin Yuan smiled, offering a daily rate of one thousand two silver coins, where else could she find such a generous landlord?

“I definitely won’t!!”

Ji Ling pounded her chest, her assurances were loud and clear.

Just as Lin Yuan was about to say something else, his expression suddenly changed, and he turned his head towards the direction of the front gate.

At the next moment, a knocking on the door sounded.

“Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yu, are you home? It’s your Uncle Tie!”
