Chapter 996: Chapter 996 - 444: Green Demon Arc – Questions and Answers (3)

"Whew—"

Fang Yu’s voice had just fallen, and the Green Demon heaved a great sigh of relief.

Then he immediately said.

"Blood Demon, rest assured, this time the mission is supported by several Demon Leaders who will escort you. You’re not really fighting alone. And I, I will definitely ensure your safety during the mission!"

These Demon Leaders will also help?

Fang Yu was startled.

No wonder these guys have gathered here.

Fang Yu looked at the Green Demon and suddenly understood something.

After the big battle, these Demon Leaders also inevitably suffered serious injuries.

The Green Demon’s ability is an important resource for them to quickly restore combat power.

Perhaps Brother Qing managed to persuade these Demon Leaders to help with this ability.

However, healing others also takes a toll on the Green Demon...

Brother Qing, truly is... sigh!

With an indescribable feeling in his heart, Fang Yu suppressed his emotions and nodded slightly to the Green Demon.

Everything is understood without words!

Clearly, if the Green Demon had not intervened, this mission would most likely have been a solo suicide run to the Foolish Underworld for him.

"Actually, our plan is quite simple. You go back to the Foolish Underworld, use this poison to assassinate the Hall Master, and then immediately return to this little courtyard to rendezvous with us. After that, we will proceed together to the Hidden Land."

"As for the specifics..."

The Shu Bird Demon quickly explained the mission details.

After listening to everything, Fang Yu extended a hand.

"I have one condition that I hope the Lords will agree to."

And Fang Yu’s gaze was directed at the Green Demon.

...

Lin Mansion.

The Lin Family barrier protected the entire Lin Family securely, isolating inside and outside like the Tianyuan Formation, forming a self-locking mechanism.

The previously accumulated supplies were enough for the Lin Family to endure for a very long time.

But standing at the edge of the formation, looking at the larger Tianyuan Formation that surrounded Tianyuan Town, Lin Family Elder [Lin Bei] and the third Miss [Lin Yanlan] were still full of worries.

"Third Miss, that traitor [Lin Ye] still hasn’t spoken, but after knowing that the Tianyuan Formation has been activated, he appeared very excited."

Lin Bei whispered.

Lin Yanlan, however, just stared at the distant light curtain, seemingly trying to see through something.

Suddenly, both of them almost noticed at the same time that three people were leisurely walking towards them.

The expression on their faces was as if they were enjoying their own backyard.

Or like they were returning to a place they hadn’t visited in years, revisiting old grounds, occasionally pointing at some buildings around them.

Lin Bei frowned slightly but didn’t pay much attention.

The Lin Family was separated from the outside world by the formation, and no one could get closer to the Lin Family by a single step.

However, when Lin Bei saw the three of them walking and talking directly towards them, approaching the Lin Family barrier, his heart skipped a beat, vaguely sensing something was wrong.

Before he could think further.

Splash...

Three ripples softly spread on the light curtain of the Lin Family barrier.

The three chatting and laughing people directly stepped into the Lin Family barrier!!

Lin Bei’s eyes instantly widened, and before his brain could react, he had already pressed Lin Yanlan’s head beside him and knelt together.

"Lin, Lin Family Elder Lin Bei, pays respect to Lord Zuo Family Ancestor! Lord Bai Family Ancestor! Lord Hei Family Ancestor!"

Lin Bei’s entire body was trembling.

He knew, within the entire Tianyuan Town, if anyone could do such a thing, easily penetrating the Lin Family barrier, it could only be those remaining old monsters from the Five Great Families.

Lin Yanlan also realized at this moment, equally terrified, trembling all over, and bowed her head not knowing how to react.

The Lin Family’s proud, so-called last line of defense, the formation they thought isolated all dangers... was nothing in the face of these three ancient monsters!!

"Oh? Lin Family juniors, just right, according to the message from the Foolish Underworld, your Lin Family produced a big traitor colluding with Lord Lan. Lead us to him; we want to have a little chat with that fellow."

The Zuo Family Ancestor spoke casually, seemingly quite amiable.

But the two people kneeling on the ground didn’t dare entertain such thoughts in the slightest.

Old monsters are old monsters. Except for their own family patriarchs, other families’ ancestors are all unpredictable monsters!

"Juniors, juniors will lead the way for the Lords immediately!"

Lin Bei hurried to his feet to lead the way.

The three ancestors started chatting and laughing again, discussing timelines from a hundred years ago at a tavern, or a tea house from over three hundred years ago, listening to which made Lin Bei’s heart tremble. He, a Lin Family Elder, is only a little over a hundred years old!

Lin Bei noticed that most of the time it was the Zuo Family Ancestor and the Bai Family Ancestor, a man and a woman, who were conversing. The Hei Family Ancestor, clad in black robes, remained quite taciturn, but his aura was the most intimidating.

Back there, Lin Yanlan, still kneeling, did not move. When Lin Bei left with the others, only then did she slowly rise with trembling hands.

She found that her back was already drenched with sweat.

That was... from fear.

The Lin Family formation, thought to be invincible, unbreakable, and absolutely safe, was rendered useless in front of the few ancestors from other families!

The hastily activated Lin Family formation was a joke, meaningless before these three people...

Once composed again, Lin Yanlan hurried to inform the others, warning them, to never, ever offend those three lords.
