Within a few breaths, the black shadow had arrived at the field and landed on the treetop in front of Zhou Lin, revealing a human shape.
He was a lonely and cold young man, holding a black sword. Just standing there, a stern sword aura naturally emanated from his whole body.
Obviously a genius who specializes in kendo.
Seeing the newcomer, Zhou Lin smiled faintly and said, "Brother Dugu, how is it?"
"…How do you know the whereabouts of the Dark Dust Sword?"
The voice of this lonely and cold young man was extremely low, but it was full of doubt.
"Haha... Is this important?" Zhou Lin smiled, looking at the black sword in the arms of the lonely and cold young man, and said meaningfully, "Shouldn't the important thing be that you actually got the sword?"
"... Not bad." The lonely and cold young man nodded slowly, "The mechanisms in the tomb are quite complicated. Without the information you provided, I would not be able to take out the sword... This time, I owe you a favor."
“Haha… I was able to get a favor from Brother Dugu of the Hidden Sect. It seems that I did a good job in this deal.” Zhou Lin smiled and flicked his sleeves, saying.
After saying this, the lonely young man frowned suddenly and said thoughtfully: "Who... are you? How did you know my identity? Was our meeting that day... really a coincidence?"
"These are not important..." Zhou Lin shook his head and said, "I just want Brother Dugu to do me a favor, just consider it as a favor."
Hearing this, the lonely and cold boy fell silent. After a moment, he nodded slowly: "Okay, what do you want me to do?"
"Go and kill some demons." Zhou Lin smiled, but said something unexpected!
Hearing this, the lonely and cold young man was very confused. He thought Zhou Lin came to him because he valued his reputation as a "sword genius" and wanted to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents... But he didn't expect that this person actually wanted to kill the demons himself
"You want me to kill the demon general?"
"Haha, Brother Dugu, you're joking. None of the three great demon generals in this area is easy to deal with. Although Brother Dugu is not afraid, I can't let you fall into danger for nothing." After saying this, he paused, then raised his finger and called out the names of several demons.
Hearing this, the lonely and cold young man became even more puzzled - although those demons were also famous and powerful, they were still a level lower than the Demon General!
This person actually wants to kill those kinds of people himself
Does he really think that it is so easy to earn favors from the hidden sect's disciples
Seeing the doubtful look on the lonely young man's face, Zhou Lin smiled and explained: "I know Brother Dugu will not take the demon tribe seriously... In fact, I also have a small request."
After a pause, he said word by word: "Within two months, all guards, including these demons, must be killed, leaving no demon alive! Moreover, we must make some noise, the bigger the better... In such a short time, to accomplish such a thing, I think that only Brother Dugu's fast sword can be relied on..."
After these words fell, the lonely and cold boy was silent for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "Okay."
Zhou Lin nodded with satisfaction. The lonely and cold boy didn't say anything more and turned away. Obviously... he was about to take action.
"hehe… "
Seeing this, Zhou Lin couldn't help but reveal a mysterious smile, then raised his head slightly, looked at Mingyue, and murmured: "What is the most expensive thing in the world?"
He smiled and answered himself: "It's intelligence."
"But... I know everything that will happen in the world in the next twenty years."
"This way, I will have enough time to make friends with powerful people when they are in decline, and kill powerful enemies when they are still in their infancy... I can earn countless favors, set up countless situations, take countless shortcuts, and do countless things that are ahead of the times..."
"In this case, how can I not be invincible?"
"In this case, who else in this world can stand in my way of becoming the king?"
"Who else?!"
Zhou Lin's smile deepened as he muttered to this point. He squinted his eyes slightly and began to think: "Haha... After getting rid of those 'established targets' along the way, the team Mei'er is in will definitely turn to the follow-up and thus, enter... 'that area'!"
"Hmm... It seems that I need to prepare early."
At this point, he raised his head and suddenly let out a sharp, crazy laugh: "Hehehe!"
"Mei'er, you are mine, you will always be mine! Don't worry! This time, I will not miss you again. I will definitely appear in front of you in the most gorgeous way! I will let you know that only I, Zhou Lin, can save you from death when you are most helpless..."
"As for that prodigal son..."
The anger in Zhou Lin's eyes suddenly rose, and a voice full of disdain and anger rang out...
"He was just a mistake, a man who should have died. No... He is nothing in front of me."
"I was still in a deep sleep before, so he took advantage of the situation and stirred up trouble..."
"But now? I'm awake!"
"It's time to put things back on track in this world."
As Zhou Lin spoke, a ball of blue flame suddenly ignited in his right hand, and the next moment, it was extinguished with a hissing sound...
"So..."
"Chu Tianxiao."
"From now on, Mei'er has me, so you... just rest in peace and sleep forever!"
…
…
A few days later.
In a dense grassland somewhere, several demon soldiers were patrolling around, guarding several demon leaders in the center.
There are no demon generals on the field, only demon soldiers.
According to the standards of Shenzhou, the magic soldiers are divided into three stars, corresponding to the three realms of Lianzhen, Mingyuan, and Tongxuan of the human race. The leaders in the field are all three-star magic soldiers, and one of the big leaders has reached the peak of three stars, which is equivalent to the peak of the Tongxuan realm of the human race...
Although such a team is not top-notch, it is also a very sharp force in the local battlefield.
At that moment, several demon leaders were discussing which route to take next in order to transport the supplies on hand back to the demon-occupied area.
Yes, they were a transport team, and they were called here because a new mineral vein had been discovered. They were responsible for mining it and transporting it back... But they didn't expect that the war was raging, and the forces of humans and demons were intertwined. Once the war started, all the roads were blocked... Before they knew it, their original route was blocked, so they had to change to the human-occupied area and try to sneak back...
However, there was a great deal of controversy among the leaders about the route to take. A three-star demon soldier who was eager to make achievements strongly suggested that they should destroy the unguarded area before the human race's strong men could react, and then leave. However, there were also cautious demon soldier leaders who thought that they should flee immediately...
When the two sides were in a stalemate, suddenly, the sound of heads rolling down was heard in the field!
It turned out to be a patrolling demon soldier who was shot in the neck by an arrow. Blood gushed out like a fountain. He didn't even have time to howl in pain before he fell to the ground and died!
"Enemy attack!"
