Chapter 98: A chance encounter at the tavern

Having activated the "Li" trigram, making some progress in spiritual manipulation, and with the beautiful woman in his arms, Lin Xing really had a fruitful trip this time!

Under the repeated pleas of Sixth Brother, Lin Xing "reluctantly" took away the Three-Tailed Fox, claiming it was for her to get some fresh air. Sixth Brother was so touched that he stuffed Lin Xing with a great deal of fine wine and delicious food.

"Damn it! You're not this courteous on normal days!" Lin Xing was full of irritation at that moment.

"Alas, it's the most sorrowful time during parting. I don't have much time left. Even if there are delicacies from mountains and seas, how long can I enjoy them? And you, Little Lin Xing, have helped me fulfill my wish. It's only right that I thank you. However, Little Lin Xing, you must remember that for those who cultivate the Dao, one must have a firm mind. External things like wine, women, and delicious food should not..."

"Eh, where is he?" Sixth Brother looked blank.

...

This was a wine shop with few people around. The wine flag hung listlessly, and the shop was quiet, with only the sound of the shopkeeper's snoring faintly audible. The waiter who did odd jobs was diligent, keeping the inside and outside of the shop clean.

Lin Xing stepped in and felt quite good.

"Waiter, bring me the best wine and the best dishes!"

Lin Xing threw a piece of gold the size of his index finger, which landed on the table with a loud clang, showing all the airs of a nouveau riche. All along, the role Lin Xing played in the secular world was that of a wealthy person, and he had rich experience in this regard!

San Niang nestled in Lin Xing's arms and whispered, "Lord Saint, if you're this ostentatious, won't you be discovered?"

"How could that be? I'm doing the opposite. The more imposing I am, the less likely others will suspect me. Right, Third Sister?" Lin Xing turned his head and asked the Three-Tailed Fox on the other side. The Three-Tailed Fox was now wearing a luxurious brocade dress, exuding an enchanting aura. Her proud and upright breasts exuded a mature charm, and with every twist of her waist and swing of her arms, she showed a captivating grace. Her skin was as smooth as jade, fair and dazzling. After being nourished by a certain liquid, she became more and more attractive! Lin Xing was becoming more and more infatuated with her.

And after the effect began to show, the Three-Tailed Fox was even more immersed in it. Even now, there was still a thick layer of white film covering her body under her clothes. Lin Xing had specially set up a small water-based formation on her body, which stopped the smell from spreading.

With just a casual glance, Lin Xing was fascinated by the Three-Tailed Fox again. Once the charming physique of the fox clan was developed, its charm was irresistible. Little Lin Xing under Lin Xing's crotch slightly raised its head.

The Three-Tailed Fox glanced out of the corner of her eye and let out a few coquettish chuckles, her amorous feelings intoxicating: "You, you just know how to talk nonsense! What kind of fallacies are these!" After saying that, her jade-like hand gently brushed past Lin Xing's lower body. Lin Xing's breath caught in his throat. She lifted her proud breasts and rubbed against Lin Xing's chest. Just as she ignited the fire in Lin Xing's heart, she pulled San Niang over and walked away with a smile.

Fine, this was revenge, definitely revenge!!!

Wasn't it just a three-person affair? Anyway, it was going to happen sooner or later. There was no need to hold a grudge for so long, right?

However, when he thought of the two white jade-like bodies entwined in front of him, Lin Xing's heart stirred again! That scene, aaaaaah!!! So exciting!!!

The three of them took their seats, and the food and wine were already prepared. Lin Xing was in a great mood and picked up his chopsticks, ready to— "How could this be!??"

A cry of surprise came from behind, old and weak, carrying the vicissitudes of time and an unquenchable sense of surprise.

"How could this be!??"

The voice came again, with an even stronger sense of surprise. Lin Xing turned his head and saw a decrepit old man.

His wide-open eyes were like glass balls, but they still couldn't hide his immortal-like bearing. His clothes were patched up, and instead of looking poor, they gave off a sense of simplicity and naturalness.

The old man took two steps at a time and plopped down into the remaining empty seat, not being polite at all. His eyes swept over the dishes on the table and then moved to Lin Xing.

"Little brother!!! Your fortune is truly one in ten thousand! One in ten thousand—"

"Where did this beggar come from? There's no leftover food here. Scram, scram!!!" The waiter ran over, brandishing a stick and trying to drive the old man away. His eyes were ablaze, as if he wanted to swallow the old man whole.

"Someone's hitting me!!! Someone's hitting me—" The old man exaggeratedly cried out even though the waiter was still several meters away. He was no different from a rascal.

"The shopkeeper is bullying others with his power!!! He's trying to kill this old man of mine!!!"

"Eh! Forget it, forget it! Let him talk. I'll just treat it like listening to a story. It's okay." Lin Xing waved his hand. Fortune-tellers always said nice things. He might as well buy himself a good mood.

The waiter gave the old man a fierce glare and went back to the shopkeeper to whisper something. Lin Xing nodded, indicating for the old man to continue.

The decrepit old man seemed to be very afraid of the waiter. He glanced at him fearfully a few times, then came back to his senses and looked at Lin Xing with a serious expression.

"Little friend, have you felt that good luck has been following you recently?" The decrepit old man looked at the dishes and then at Lin Xing.

"I've always had good luck."

"Then have you made great progress in your career recently and achieved quite a lot in your own field?" The decrepit old man's eyes were now fixed on the dishes rather than Lin Xing.

"That's true." Lin Xing nodded. He thought to himself, he actually guessed it right. Could he really have some real ability?

The decrepit old man suddenly changed the subject and said, "Little friend, I haven't eaten for several days. You have so many dishes, and you can't finish them anyway. How about I—?"

Lin Xing's face darkened: Sure enough, he was a fraud!

He had actually thought the old man was the real deal!

Just as he was about to refuse, a sudden warning sign rose in his heart, as if something dangerous was approaching.

This was the keen perception that came with reaching a certain level of cultivation!

Lin Xing suddenly stood up, and his spiritual power surged like a tsunami, with a radius of hundreds of meters around him under his exploration!

Eight people!!!

Eight sharp arrows!!!

The sword bodies were dim and flashed through the air rapidly, being quite unremarkable. The arrowheads were coated with a greenish liquid, and it was obvious that they were poisoned!

The eight arrows arrived in an instant. Six of them were aimed at him, and two were aimed at the Three-Tailed Fox and San Niang!

They were trying to kill him!!!

Who was it? So ruthless!??

The sneak attack was too sudden, and these must be professional killers!

There was not the slightest leakage of killing intent!

The eight arrows coordinated with each other and had a certain pattern!

Even the materials used to make the arrows were of the highest quality! They were dull in color, and their rapid flight made no sound at all!

Who on earth was it!

With a shock of his spiritual power, the space suddenly twisted, and the eight sharp arrows disappeared out of thin air.

Lin Xing was filled with blazing anger!

"Ah—"

The decrepit old man let out a scream, with a mouthful of food in his mouth, and fell onto the table. The Three-Tailed Fox and San Niang looked at the food they had just picked up and put it down in a state of shock.

It was so dangerous!!!

They still didn't know that just a few sharp arrows had been only a few steps away from them!

The waiter and the shopkeeper suddenly ran over and shouted loudly: "Someone's dead!!! Someone's dead————"

"Xing'er, this—"

"Be careful!!"

Lin Xing pulled the Three-Tailed Fox over and threw a rapid punch at the two people opposite. Transparent spiritual energy gushed out and collided with two strange streams of energy.

Boom— The waiter and the shopkeeper were sent flying backward and hit the wall. Their bodies twisted rapidly, and the powerful force was all channeled into the wall, creating cracks. However, their bodies were unharmed!

And on Lin Xing's right fist that had collided with them, the skin turned slightly green.

Lin Xing took a step forward, and his spiritual power surged. The tables and chairs in the room shook violently.

"Who sent you!?"

The green color on his fist was squeezed out by the transparent spiritual energy and dissipated into the air. In Lin Xing's eyes, there was nothing but naked killing intent!
