Chapter 2312: Chapter 2332: Come as you say, and leave as you wish?_1

The white-robed old man slowly walked through the city, exited from the West Gate, and disappeared at the city entrance.

He hadn’t detected any clues.

One could only say that Lin Chen’s Divine Power, in combination with the Life and Death Secret Art, was too suitable for hiding and escaping.

This game of hide and seek, who could find him!

Lin Chen waited underground for a long time before he slowly rose from beneath the earth.

Lin Chen did not go out to check, nor was he in a hurry to flee.

Since the other party hadn’t discovered him or taken action against him, it meant this place was safe.

Although he had met the other party before, they had not clashed; the other’s arrival here was probably just a routine check rather than a precise pursuit, otherwise, he would have been in trouble during the long time he spent at sea.

Just keep waiting!

Half a day later, a figure wearing a greenish Taoist Robe appeared outside of the city, walking directly to the mountain peak adorned with a Talisman and peeled it off.

In the small city, the meditating Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

When he had placed the Talisman, he naturally left a small trick; if someone removed it, he would be alerted.

The big shots from Wuling Mountain had arrived?

Earth Escape!

Lin Chen quietly submerged himself into the ground, leaving the Linglong Tower behind underground, before heading alone towards the city outskirts.

Soon, Lin Chen reached the high mountain, his body flickering rapidly through the dense woods, swiftly approaching the other person.

This was a middle-aged man in a Taoist Robe, quite handsome; Lin Chen instantly recognized the sect emblem of the Wuling Mountain on his robe.

Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief, finally having waited for this moment.

"Come out, no need to hide anymore."

The middle-aged man turned his head, his gaze landing in the direction where Lin Chen was located; Lin Chen was using Wood Escape, hidden within a towering tree not far from the man.

"Five Elements Escape Technique?"

The middle-aged man spoke slowly, "You came using Earth Escape and approached with Wood Escape. You are not a disciple of my sect, who are you?"

Lin Chen emerged from the trees and greeted the man with a cupped fist salute: "Independent Cultivator Lin Chen, I greet the Senior. May I ask which Senior from Wuling Mountain you are?"

"Liuyun."

The middle-aged man surveyed Lin Chen, his eyes showing a bit of curiosity: "Is it you who refused Master Floating Cloud, unwilling to become his disciple?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Mainly because I have many personal matters to attend to, I haven’t considered joining a sect for the time being, so I can only fail to live up to Master Floating Cloud’s kind intentions."

"The cause of yesterday, the effect of today."

Master Liuyun said with a laugh, "If there wasn’t Master Floating Cloud wanting to take you as his disciple that day, without establishing that cause, there wouldn’t be the event of you saving Xuanhezi and the other two today. Master Floating Cloud wasn’t wrong; you really are fated with my Dragon Mountain."

"One moment, Senior!"

Lin Chen disappeared with Earth Escape, and soon, he summoned the Linglong Tower back from the earth.

"Senior, the attackers were led by three Daluo Initial Immortals; they had Magical Treasures for searching for disciples from various sects. If I let them go..."

Master Liuyun said with a laugh, "Just let them go. If they dare to come, then that would be perfect; I also want to see who dares to strike against our Three Sects."

Hearing Master Liuyun’s confidence, Lin Chen released the three men along with Mi Xiaowan.

Xuanhezi, seeing Master Liuyun, showed a surprised and happy smile on his face and respectfully performed a ritual bow: "Master Liuyun, you’ve personally come!"

Master Liuyun nodded his head, his eyes filled with a few more degrees of chilly killing intent: "I want to see just who has such gall, wanting to destroy the future of my Wuling Mountain!"

After a pause, Liuyun turned to Wu Jie and Xuanqing: "The elders of your sects should be here too; you can contact them to come over."

Wu Jie and Xuanqing expressed their thanks and reached out to their respective sects.

Liuyun’s gaze fell on Mi Xiaowan: "And who might she be?"

Lin Chen replied, "A passenger on the ship, the granddaughter of the sect leader of the Fengxue Sect."

"The Fengxue Sect?"

Liuyun uttered an "Oh" but didn’t ask further: "Come, tell me what you know about the situation..."

Lin Chen spoke up first: "Yesterday, another powerhouse combed through this city. They are very strong, likely to be Daluo Initial Immortals. If I hadn’t realized it quickly, I might have been discovered."

Master Liuyun sneered with contempt: "They really are persistent thieves. If it weren’t for your help this time, Lin Chen, the consequences would have been severe."

Xuanhezi and the others naturally had powerful Magical Treasures and protective items on them, but the attackers were Daluo Initial Immortals; how could ordinary methods escape their search?

The Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower was an Innate Spiritual Treasure, capable of blocking all tracking and sensing, a truly miraculous effect.

Xuanhezi was explaining when he suddenly saw a figure in the distant horizon streaking by like a shooting star, instantly approaching—the masked white-robed old man.

Xuanhezi yelled with wide eyes, "Master, he’s one of the leading murderers!"

Liuyun’s face revealed a cold smile as his body turned into a streak of green light meeting the other head-on.

"Come on, let’s see who’s behind the mask?"

The white-robed old man, upon seeing Liuyun, had a drastic change in his expression, and without hesitation made a rapid turn and fled in another direction.

He actually didn’t dare to confront Liuyun and chose to flee outright!

Master Liuyun scoffed as he reached into the void, stretching out his hand toward the retreating white-robed old man: "Thinking you can come and go as you please?"
