Chapter 78: Wolf's Ambition (Upper Strong Push!!!)

  Lost in deep breaths, this unremarkable young man has reached what realm!

  Lin Heng originally didn't want to reveal his strength, but seeing her expectant and pleading eyes staring at him unblinkingly, he could only say word by word: "Second-grade."

  "Are you a second-class warrior?" Despite being lost and having expected it earlier, Lin Huan's personal confirmation still came as a strong shock.

  At such a young age, he is already a second-grade official. Even in the entire city of Nanwu, with a population of nearly 100 million, it's unlikely that you can find five people like him.

  She and the other three maids, Xin, Xiang, and Qing, were Jiang Lin's most loyal attendants. They had grown up with Miss since childhood and had always admired her astonishing talent. However, Miss had only reached the late stage of First Rank, and even then, she had received a large amount of medicinal pellets from the City Lord as assistance. Yet this young man was actually more formidable than Miss?

  Her only idea was that Lin Huan was a direct disciple of some mysterious sect, and had been given a large amount of rare elixirs and auxiliary means to aid his growth since childhood, otherwise it would be impossible for him to reach the unbelievable realm he is in now.

  Lin Heng wiped the bloodstains off his body and bowed: "This matter is settled, but I still have something to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

  "What's going on? Wake up! No way, you can't go."

  But he immediately woke up to this move being impolite, and hastily retreated to the sky, changing his expression to a pleading one: "Lin Hong, I beg of you, save my family's young lady. She is right in front, surrounded by the people of Xuan Tian Sect, and only you can save her. If you don't save her, she will be harmed by those bad people... My family's young lady has met you once before, and after parting ways that time, she has always been praising you, saying that you are calm and introspective, definitely not a mediocre person. I believe she won't misjudge someone, you must be able to rescue her..."

  Lin Heng hesitated slightly, having rarely gone out since crossing into Qili Gou. However, the grand reputation of Xuantian Sect was often heard. He knew it was a major sect that could be mentioned in the same breath as Cangyu Gate, and he had inadvertently saved someone who was lost, which might have caused offense. But after all, it was an unintentional act, and the other party had provoked him first! If he were to go rescue Jiang Lin, it would be equivalent to actively interfering with their plot, which would not be the same as before, but rather thoroughly offending them.

  In front of these powerful sects, he was just a mere second-rate cultivator, no different from an insignificant little ant.

  If he were to respond to the lost, wouldn't it be a catastrophe for himself? Moreover, if the mysterious Tianzong knew his true identity after the event, the entire Seven Mile Gorge and Qingniu Town would likely face disaster.

  Lost looked at Lin Feng's hesitant expression, and immediately knelt down and knocked his head on the ground. Tears gushed out: "Miss has a deep affection for Lost, although Lost knows that it is difficult for Young Master Lin to do so, but Lost sincerely asks Young Master Lin to save Miss once. As long as the young master agrees, Lost will be willing to serve as a cow and horse for the young master in the future, and be willing to be a slave."

  Lin Heng saw her so devoted, his blood surged, and he gritted his teeth: "I'll help you this once, but my ability is limited, whether I can rescue or not, it's up to fate."

  "Thank you, young master." The lost one turned tears into smiles and gave Lin a bow before getting up.

  A valley scattered with low shrubs and green grass, where birds and beasts had long since fled without a trace.

  Jiang Lin was within a small formation, desperately defending himself.

  Transparent small arrays occasionally withstand external attacks, and sway back and forth.

  There were three men besieging her, two of whom were around forty years old and wore robes of similar colors, probably brothers from the same sect. The third was twenty-three or four years old, wearing a white shirt with a slender figure, deep eyes, and an elegant demeanor.

  Every now and then, the white-shirted man brandished his ancient sword, and the other two men simultaneously struck out, blasting a small array.

  A wave of attacks struck down, and the small squad fell into a state of disarray on the verge of collapse.

  "Miss Jiang, I advise you to surrender quietly. In this situation, you can't escape, and resisting will only be a waste of energy."

  Three people stood in different directions, attacking the central formation. It seemed that the leader was the white-shirted man who had spoken earlier.

  They couldn't do anything to Jiang Lin who was protected by the formation for the time being, but anyone with discerning eyes could see that the formation would last at most ten or so minutes.

  "Yang Bo, our Nanwu City and your Xuantian Sect have always had a good relationship, even sending heavy tributes to your Xuantian Sect every year. What do you mean by secretly harming us, the Nanwu City? Are you acting behind the back of Xuantian Sect, arbitrarily severing the relationship between our two families? Don't you fear the pursuit of Nanwu City and Xuantian Sect?"

  Jiang Lin's hidden strength was almost exhausted, and if it weren't for the protection of the second-grade treasure "Man Shu Fa Zhen", she would have fallen into the opponent's hands long ago. Now, she had two hopes: first, that the lost Yang Bo could transmit the news of Xuan Tian Sect's plan to deal with Nan Wu City back; second, to try to shake the opponent's determination with words and see if she could survive in desperation.

  As for waiting for reinforcements, in this vast and desolate wilderness with no one around, it is simply impossible.

  She entered the Manghu Mountain this time, with the purpose of completing a very secret task for her family. Therefore, except for the maid who got lost together, no one else knew about it. Unfortunately, she never thought that as soon as she left Nanwu City, she was being spied on by the Xuantian Sect.

  "Haha, Jiang girl. We have no hostility towards Nanwu City at all, even if we are holding you captive now, it's out of helplessness... I, Yang Bo, have long been deeply infatuated with your stunning beauty, day and night thinking of you. Until today, I couldn't hold back my deep feelings for you, that's why I made this 'despicable' move in front of you. Jiang girl, this isn't me, Yang Bo, acting alone. It's because our two senior elders of the Xuantian Sect saw how deeply I felt and thought that an alliance between the Xuantian Sect and Nanwu City would be mutually beneficial, so they came up with this plan."

  Yang Bo looked into the formation and saw that Jiang Lin's clothes were disheveled, but her figure was still elegant and refined. Her body had a beautiful curve to it. As he spoke flirtatious words, his heart felt dizzy and confused, his lustful intentions growing thicker.

  "Miss Jiang, considering my deep affection for you, please fulfill my wish. I, Yang Bo, am a direct disciple of the Xuantian Sect and have entered the third rank at just 24 years old, becoming one of the young elites of the sect with boundless prospects. Later on, it's likely that I'll become an elder of the Xuantian Sect. And you, with your heavenly beauty and talent, are a renowned lady from a good family, a perfect match for me. Why must you be so stubborn and go against heaven's will, tormenting someone who loves you deeply?"

  Jiang Lin was enraged by his shameless words, her face turning pale: "Bah! You despicable scoundrel, even if I bite my tongue to death, I won't let you, this hypocritical beast, succeed!"

  "What are you people of Xuantian Sect thinking? It's well-known to everyone. Five hundred years ago, your Xuantian Sect was divided and fragmented, besieged by the Demonic Path and the Huángmén North Sect, Extreme Bliss Pure Land. If it weren't for our South Wucheng Old Ancestor, who acted as an intermediary on behalf of you people with other major sects, asking them to lend a hand, your Xuantian Sect would have been annihilated long ago. You ungrateful and treacherous people, repaying kindness with enmity, in order to swallow our South Wucheng, actually using such despicable means, truly without shame..."

  A man in a green robe to the east said, "Miss Jiang, we really have no ill intentions. Young Master Yang is talented and one of the most promising young people in our Xuantian Sect. Many aristocratic families and imperial households want him as their son-in-law, but he has refused them all because of his deep affection for you. Being able to marry him is truly a blessing from your past life. Moreover, from a practical perspective, if your South Wucheng and our Xuantian Sect become in-laws, which power would dare offend you in the future?"

  "Not bad, you in Nancheng, all are good things!"

  Three people kept persuading him, but the attack in their hands never stopped for a moment.

  The weak points of the small formation have already revealed fine and long cracks, and it's feared that it will be hard to hold on again.

  "It's clear that you're a thief and a prostitute, with no good intentions, yet you speak as if you're righteous and just. You hypocrites from the Xuantian Sect are truly disgusting. Although our Nanwu City is far inferior to the Xuantian Sect in terms of strength, we're not pushovers either. Just wait for our stormy revenge!"

  "Boom! Boom! Boom!" The small formation was finally destroyed.

  Yang Bo and the other two were overjoyed, like three flying arrows, they simultaneously shot towards Jiang Lin's inner heart in the Array Formation.

  "Soul-Devouring Powder!" Jiang Lin scattered a cloud of pale yellow powder, enveloping herself within it.

  The three of them heard this and their faces changed color, hastily flying backward in retreat.

  "Mysterious Soul Eroding Powder" is an extremely rare, specially-made medicinal powder. Any martial artist below the fourth rank who enters its range will immediately face attack. Once even a tiny bit of it comes into contact with the skin, at least half a year will pass before one can use internal energy again. Due to its extreme rarity, ordinary commercial markets basically do not sell it, and most people will be lucky to see it once in their lifetime.

  Jiang Lin saw them flying back and hurriedly leapt out to make a desperate escape.

  "Haha, Jiang girl, accept your fate. One of us is a third-rank official, two are second-rank officials, and you're just a lowly first-rank official, where can you escape to? In the vast and deep mountains, don't even think about being lucky and waiting for reinforcements! Even if they come, they won't be our match."

  Yang Bo saw Jiang Lin escape and was overjoyed rather than worried.

  This shows that Jiang Lin has exhausted all means and is no longer a threat.

  She wants to escape from his palm? It's really ridiculous. To know that he is a third-rank, able to float and control objects, Jiang Lin can't be faster than his speed!

  Unable to escape within a hundred meters, Yang Bo stepped on the ancient sword with intricate patterns, already above his head. However, he didn't make a move, but instead laughed like an eagle teasing a chick, saying: "Miss Jiang, your current fleeing appearance is really enticing, those pert buttocks and slender waist combined are extremely sexy. I'm reluctant to take action now, stopping such a beautiful scene. So, you continue to run... until you're tired, then I'll make my move."

  Jiang Lin was filled with shame and anger, but she was no match for others. In the face of humiliation, she could only swallow her pride and endure it silently.

  She heard the lewd laughter above her head, as if she felt Yang Bo's gaze staring at her buttocks at this moment, and indecently stroking her buttocks inch by inch.

  "Yang Bo, you shameless beast! I, Jiang Lin, swear that if someone saves me from this desperate situation, I will definitely tear you and the Xuan Tian Sect into pieces." But she suddenly felt a surge of sadness in her heart. At this moment, facing three opponents above the second rank, including one at the third rank who was chasing after her, how could anyone possibly rescue her?

  I'm really just being foolishly optimistic.

  "Little girl, surrender now!" Just then, one of the pursuers behind her, a second-rank officer, made his move, striking out at the back of her neck.

  She was far inferior to the second product in terms of late-stage strength, and the other party went all out to capture her for credit.

  Jiang Lin knew she would fall into enemy hands, her heart filled with despair, let out a long sigh, closed her eyes and gave up escaping.

  "Heavens, am I, Jiang Lintang's esteemed city lord's daughter, really going to fall into the tiger's mouth today? And be ravaged by these inhumane beasts?"
