Immortal Road.

Chapter 127 I am Lei Fengzi of Zixiao Sect
Under the urging of the joint law enforcement detective team of the three demonic sects, Lin Shan summoned all his monks in the Ezo Sea and spread the news that the remnant of the East China Sea, Master Gui, and his disciples had fled to nearby waters.

According to the detective chief, the Guardian of the Blood River Palace, all islands in the Ezo Sea must be monitored and personnel must be stationed in each place permanently.

As an envoy, Lin Shan had to patrol various places personally every day and report immediately if there was any disturbance.

After giving many long-winded mandatory orders, the guardian of the Blood River Palace left with the huge law enforcement detective team. They were going to the next sea area to continue arranging tasks.

Lin Shan finally sent these great gods away, and his face immediately fell.

Not only was he in a bad mood, but all his subordinates were in a very bad mood. The missionary work was almost over and they could have taken a good rest, but something like this happened.

All the East China Sea cultivators present knew best who Master Gui was.

He was a person in the late Jindan stage, who forced his way out of the siege in the battle of Diaobie Island, and the three sects of the Demonic Path had been chasing him for nearly three years but could not do anything to him!
If they encountered it, they probably wouldn't even have time to call for help, let alone escape.

Even if Lin Shan had a trump card, he had no confidence that he could please a late Jindan cultivator. The difference between the early foundation building stage and the late Jindan stage was not even a little bit.

Even though he wanted to obey orders and not announcements, the words of the leader of the joint law enforcement team were still ringing in his ears.

Anyone who dares to disobey will be killed without mercy!

Who knows if there is a traitor among the hundreds of people under his command? If someone goes to inform on him, wouldn’t he be killed without a burial place?
"Forget it, just follow whatever the boss arranges."

"The nearby sea area is so vast, with hundreds of islands of all sizes, it's impossible to run into them by chance."

"Just think of it as a way to relax."

He said some words to comfort everyone and gave everyone a brief introduction to probability theory, which finally calmed down his men's fear of death.

Lin Shan then assigned tasks, one person on the small island, two people on the middle island, and three people on the big island, each of them went to guard. Each person brought a sound transmission talisman, and if they found the traces of Master Gui and others, they should not be anxious, but pass on the message quietly first.

As for himself, he had no choice but to start his daily routine patrol.

There are policies from above and countermeasures from below.

There is no problem patrolling every day. With the flying speed of a foundation-building cultivator, it is impossible to cover all the thousands of miles of the Ezo Sea. Then it is okay for me to patrol only the inner circle, and it is also okay to set the patrol time in broad daylight.

What? Night patrol? I have to rest and recover my spiritual power at night.

Lin Shan would never go out on patrol at night. Everyone knows that bandits fleeing must hide during the day and come out at night. Going out and wandering around at night would be courting death.

As time went by, with the rumors spreading widely in several nearby waters, the joint law enforcement detective team made great efforts to deploy in the surrounding waters, and a vigorous encirclement and suppression campaign began.

……

On the ninth day of June, according to rumors, Master Gui was accidentally spotted in the Hongqi Sea in the north.

On June 23, the official announcement came that the Northeast Huangsha Sea Area Joint Law Enforcement Detective Team had arrested five disciples of Master Zhan Gui who were in the foundation-building stage.

On June 29th, rumors spread in Haishi that a stone image showed a person coughing up blood and being seriously injured, and he was suspected to be Master Turtle.

On the fifth day of July, according to eyewitnesses, Master Gui led his men to the Tiger Shark Sea and brutally massacred hundreds of monks from the Hundred Ghosts Sect!
On July 12, the sect sent a message that Master Gui was suspected to be leading his people south.

On July 25, official news came that the joint law enforcement detective team successfully intercepted and killed dozens of bandits in the Qinyang waters, and Master Gui was seriously injured and fled.

On the first day of August, rumors spread that Master Gui had fled to the Ezo Sea.

On the second day of August, after a busy day of patrolling, Lin Shan dragged his tired body back to his cave, and found that there was one more person in his training room without him noticing.

"I have come here uninvited, please bear with me, young friend!"

……

The sea was eerie and scary at night. A group of strange birds flew across the moonlight, crying long and mournful cries.

Lin Shan stood at the door of his secret room, looking at an old man in the Jindan stage with a pale face and a weak breath. Cold sweat covered his back and he dared not move.

The door to the cave behind him had been closed at some point, and a transparent air shield rose up around it. From his spiritual sense, he could infer that it was a formation to trap the enemy. A cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building had also appeared in the yard at some point.

Lin Shan, who was trapped in the middle, quietly grasped the wind escape talisman, but found that because of the formation surrounding the cave, the air inside and outside was isolated, and he could not escape by wind!

"What kind of probability is this? There are fifty islands in the Ezo Sea. How did I run into this one?"

Swallowing his saliva quietly, Lin Shan began to frantically think about how to survive.

There is no doubt that the person who occupied the secret room was Master Gui. He saw it with his own eyes at the Diaobi Island event, so how could he not recognize him?

The young man in the Foundation Establishment Stage behind him should be one of his disciples, who has been following Master Gui in exile until now. At this moment, he quietly appeared behind him, blocking his retreat.

For a moment, Lin Shan felt a great crisis. Master Gui actually sneaked into his cave during the day and set up a killing formation.

While thinking quickly, he was wondering whether he should use the Fiery Fire Talisman. He didn't know how serious the injury of Master Gui was. He didn't know whether this small magical spell, which was comparable to the full-strength attack of a late Jindan cultivator, could kill him in one fell swoop!

Even if he cannot be killed, can he break the surrounding formation? Once the formation is broken, the Wind Escape Talisman can come in handy.

But the question arises again. With such a small cave and surrounded by a formation, what should I do if I am affected by such a powerful blazing fire? Can I die together with him?

...But what he didn't know was that at this moment, Master Gui was even more worried than he was.

Up to now, he has been traveling to large and small seas, and was ambushed and seriously injured by the law enforcement teams of the three evil sects a few days ago. Fortunately, he found a spiritual eye nearby that can help him recover quickly.

If I kill the person in front of me again, I am afraid that I will expose the clues again. The foundation-building people of the big sects all have soul lamps and soul tablets in the sect, and they will definitely be discovered if they die.

But if he is not killed but just imprisoned, then the person in charge of the nearby sea area will suddenly disappear, which will also reveal his whereabouts.

If he had a chance to escape when he was at his peak, it would be just as difficult for him now that he was surrounded on all sides, with no relatives to turn to, and only the youngest disciple to guard him.
The atmosphere gradually solidified, time passed by drop by drop, the moonlight sprinkled on the mountainside and shone into the cave, and the three figures stood motionless.

After staring at each other for a long time, Master Gui was the first to break the silence, but when he opened his mouth, he said something that Lin Shan did not expect.

"If I remember correctly, I briefly met you at my birthday party three years ago. You seem to have some connection with the Zixiao Sect."

Lin Shan was suddenly startled, looking at the Jindan stage old man in front of him. Why didn't he take action immediately, but instead started reminiscing about the past?
However, thinking back to the East China Sea event three years ago, he did sit at the same table with Lei Yuzi and Lin Fan. The three of them came together, so it didn't seem strange that they were noticed by Master Gui.

Thinking of the current murderous situation, Lin Shan's brain started working non-stop. After careful analysis, he seemed to understand Master Gui's dilemma.

He was seriously injured and urgently needed a foothold, so he probably didn't dare to move.

If that's the case,
Lin Shan suddenly had an idea and continued speaking along the lines of the old man in front of him:
"Senior, you have a keen eye. I am Lei Fengzi, a disciple of Zixiao Sect. I am honored to meet you, the real master."

Master Gui stroked his beard in confusion, "How could my friend have such an identity?"

The Foundation Establishment Stage youth in the courtyard sneered:
"I have already found out during the day that you are clearly the Black Lotus Cult's messenger, the person in charge of the Ezo Sea, Lin Shan!"

Lin Shan was not at all flustered. He straightened his clothes and looked extremely calm and relaxed.

"Before the next year, I was ordered by my master to infiltrate the Black Lotus Sect and learn about the dynamics of the demonic sect."

Master Gui's divine light shone: "What is the evidence?"

“Sizzle, snap!”

Lin Shan vigorously practiced the "Wind and Thunder Art" technique, and wind swirled around his body and danced around the electric arc, showing his "wind and thunder spiritual power".

The two of them showed a look of "surprise". It seems that it is rare to have such a person in the Song Dynasty except the Zixiao Sect, who possesses both wind and thunder spiritual roots and can practice the wind and thunder skills to the foundation-building stage.

The young man in the Foundation Establishment Stage was hesitant again: "Perhaps you came from the distant Lu State. This kind of spiritual power may not be rare in the cultivation world of other countries."

Lin Shan smiled faintly: "I was born in the Lin family of Qinghe County in the southern border of the Song Dynasty. I joined the Zixiao Sect with my brother Lin Fan. How could I be from another country?"

The young man in the Foundation Establishment Stage paused. Now that I am in the vast East China Sea, how can I go to the southern border of the Song Dynasty to investigate your identity? This is obviously a confusing account.

But the turtle master next to him nodded.

"Yes, you are indeed a disciple of Zixiao Sect!"

When these words were spoken, not only the young man who was building his foundation in the courtyard was shocked, but Lin Shan was also stunned.

Did this old man believe it so easily? He still has a lot to say.

"No doubt about it! That day, I saw three people from my sect attending the banquet together. It is obvious that they are close friends."

Master Gui was actually more certain than Lin Shan. He had no desire to question him in detail and immediately played the emotional card.

"Speaking of which, I also have a deep friendship with Elder Ge of your sect who is in the Jindan stage."

Lin Shan immediately took action, his eyes showing excitement: "Is it Elder Ge, the Jindan-level elder who is in charge of the purchase of spiritual beast feed in the Outer Sect's Miscellaneous Affairs Hall?"

Master Gui's face twitched, but he quickly backed down and his old face turned red again, as if he was proud of it and burst into heroic spirit.

"That's right!"

Lin Shan quickly performed the greetings of a junior: "It turns out to be Uncle Turtle!"

"Nephew Lin!"

"Uncle Turtle!"

"Nephew Lin!"

……

The two of them had tears in their eyes, feeling that they had met too late, and they were almost crying in each other's arms!
The young man in the Foundation Establishment Stage in the courtyard was shocked by the corny dialogue, and his head was full of question marks.

You acknowledged me as your relative without asking anything? Even if they were related, they were not even remotely related. Was it necessary to be so angry?

Is the master getting senile and confused?

But at this time, the old man and the young man inside the door already had tears in their eyes and were expressing their innermost feelings to each other.
