Chapter 3430: If the Living Won't Talk, Ask the Dead
Little Mei didn't understand Lin Moyu's words. "What bait?"
Lin Moyu smiled and said, "Bait that can make them come."
Wu Xingguang wasn't a fool. He had already suffered a loss in Thunder City, although it was the Thunder Dao Person who acted then, not Lin Moyu.
However, from Lin Moyu's demeanor, one could judge that he wasn't easy to deal with.
Sometimes, cultivation level is only one aspect. Many powerful treasures can change this.
Wu Xingguang might not necessarily move against Lin Moyu without knowing what trump cards he had.
So, to make them act, bait was needed.
Lin Moyu was resolving karma, and also studying and understanding karma.
He had already formed karma with Wu Xingguang, so he needed to find a way to resolve it. Moreover, he was also coveting the treasure on Wu Xingguang. Using normal methods would only deepen and enlarge the karma.
Based on his understanding of karma, the best thing now was to let Wu Xingguang make the first move.
As long as Wu Xingguang attacked him first, he would have a reason, and the karma that ultimately fell on him would be less.
It was a strange feeling. Intuition told him this was the right thing to do.
Lin Moyu followed his heart and changed his method of dealing with Wu Xingguang.
He drank a cup of Glacier Great Dao tea, feeling the changes in his cultivation speed, then showed a slightly disappointed expression.
The Glacier Great Dao tea had minimal enhancing effect on him, almost none.
It was only because he had too many and too strong auxiliary items: the Great Dao crystal, the ice jade cushion, the silver tree sap, all were supreme treasures. Their effects far surpassed the Glacier Great Dao tea.
With their enhancement, his cultivation speed had already exceeded 200 times normal, now only needing a year to condense each Dao pattern.
He was at the fifth level of Dao Venerable, with as many as eighteen basic Dao patterns.
At this speed, what more could he ask for?
Although the Glacier Great Dao tea was useless for him, it didn't affect its value. If he didn't drink it, he could let Little Mei and the others drink more.
...
In a certain courtyard in Floating City, Wu Xingguang asked, "Elder Chuan, is that guy still there?"
Elder Chuan sat with his eyes closed, sensing heaven and earth. Wu Xingguang remained silent, quietly waiting for the result.
The two elders who came with him this time were named Wu Feichuan and Wu Jiuyuan.
After a moment, Wu Feichuan said, "The mark this old man left has already left Floating City. Judging by the direction it left, it should be heading to the Dongfang family."
Wu Xingguang said in a low voice, "He should be going to participate in the Nine Heavens Competition. Let's wait a bit longer, until he's gone further. We'll make our move late at night."
On the other side, Wu Jiuyuan said, "Xingguang, are you sure you really want to make a move?"
Wu Xingguang said, "Yes, if I don't act now, I won't have another chance. Elders, you watched me grow up. Can you bear to see me become a discarded pawn?"
"You also know the Wu family's rules. Once I have no value, I'll be implanted with a death talisman and sent to other families as a discarded pawn."
"So I must prove my value before then. I've already given up twice before. This is the last chance. I can't give up again."
Wu Xingguang spoke sincerely, his eyes moist, almost on the verge of tears.
The two elders sighed lightly, "Alright, let's do it then."
Wu Xingguang said, "As long as we do it discreetly, even if the Dongfang family uses time reversal, they won't be able to confirm it was us. At that time, as long as we don't admit it, they can't do anything to us."
"Once we bring Sha Shinan back to the Wu family, Young Master has ways to make her willingly use the Spirit-Boosting secret technique."
"Then, my combat power can greatly increase. Using some heavenly and earthly treasures to forcibly increase my cultivation, and with Xingchen speaking for me, I won't become a discarded pawn anymore."
Becoming a discarded pawn in the Wu family was a very miserable thing, so Wu Xingguang had to do everything to avoid becoming one.
The two seventh-level elders agreed to Wu Xingguang's request, waiting until late at night to make their move.
The Yin Origin hung high in the sky. The Yin talisman in Lin Moyu's brow was flashing with light.
Under the illumination of the Yin Origin, Lin Moyu's aura was 30% stronger than usual, including all techniques, all Great Daos, and even his fortune.
Except for the speed of condensing Dao patterns, everything was increased by 30%.
Lin Moyu didn't understand before, but now he knew how domineering and unreasonable the Yin Origin was.
This was also why so many people wanted to capture him when he became the Son of Yin back then.
Little Mei said, "Teacher, have you decided not to hide your identity as the Son of Yin anymore?"
Lin Moyu said, "There's no need to hide anymore."
Little Mei said, "That's right. With Teacher's current cultivation, who on the Origin Continent could harm Teacher? Naturally, there's no need to hide."
In the end, everything still came down to strength.
Without strength, one could only hide. With strength, one could naturally act freely.
The night gradually deepened. In the small courtyard, the formation controlled water vapor to form fine rain falling slowly.
Little Mei was bored. "Won't they come?"
Lin Moyu said, "They're almost here."
Little Mei's eyes brightened. In a flash, half a watermelon appeared in her hand. "How does Teacher know?"
Lin Moyu said, "They can leave marks on me, so naturally I can leave marks on them too."
Lin Moyu had used the Great Dao to lock onto the enemy, leaving marks on Wu Xingguang and the two seventh-level elders without them knowing.
Moreover, Lin Moyu had also removed the marks they left, attaching them to a skeleton divine general, moving away from Floating City towards the Dongfang family, creating the illusion that he had already left.
This was the bait Lin Moyu had set out. And he sensed that one seventh-level elder had already come, indicating he had succeeded.
The whereabouts of Wu Xingguang and the other two were actually all within his grasp. In this chess game, he had already established an unbeatable position.
Under the Yin, Wu Feichuan appeared silently above the small courtyard.
Wu Feichuan had left marks on both Jiang Lixin and Sha Shinan, so he could accurately find their location. This was also why Lin Moyu said they couldn't escape.
Suddenly, a voice sounded by Wu Feichuan's ear, "Elder, in the dead of night, doing such sneaky things, isn't it too shameful?"
Wu Feichuan's heart skipped a beat, then he saw Lin Moyu in the pavilion.
"Not good!"
Wu Feichuan was startled and quickly turned to leave.
But a flash of light passed before his eyes, and he felt he had lost connection with the outside world.
"Sealing Formation!" Wu Feichuan recognized it at a glance. He had fallen into a Sealing Formation, and his expression became extremely ugly.
Lin Moyu said, "Elder has good eyesight. This Sealing Formation is seventh-grade. I'm afraid it won't be easy for Elder to break out in a short time."
Wu Feichuan looked at Lin Moyu, his voice ice-cold, "What do you want?"
Lin Moyu said, "This junior only wants to ask Elder a question."
"Speak!" Wu Feichuan gritted out.
He was already accumulating power in his hand, ready to unleash a sky-shaking attack at any moment.
Lin Moyu asked, "What is that treasure on Wu Xingguang?"
Wu Feichuan's gaze suddenly became sharp. "What treasure? What nonsense are you talking about!"
Lin Moyu said, "Since Elder is unwilling to speak, then this junior can only seek answers from the dead."
As he spoke, Lin Moyu made the first move, his finger pointing "Skeleton Hell".
