Chapter 1654 Doesn't Your Heart Ache?
"The Second Master is my brother, Lin Xian. The First Master unfortunately died many years ago..." Lin Zhao suddenly raised his head and said, "Is Eldest Brother in the ancestral land?"
I nodded, "If we're not mistaken, that First Master is the one pulling the door! Who is he?"
Lin Zhao said with a complicated expression, "Eldest Brother's name is Xue Jinpeng. He was the sect leader's biological son. We grew up together, until a few years ago when Eldest Brother unfortunately died while carrying out a mission outside."
I pressed, "Did you see his body?"
"We did!" Lin Zhao said, "But that body was completely disfigured. Only the magical artifact he carried with him could prove his identity."
I waved my hand and released Lin Xian's acupoints. "Go find your Eldest Brother! The person you should meet, you have to meet eventually."
As Lin Xian walked towards the stone door, his steps became somewhat staggering. His psychological endurance was obviously not as good as Lin Zhao's.
If our guess was confirmed.
For Lin Xian, the sect would no longer be the sect, and friends would no longer be friends.
Lin Xian's beliefs would collapse in an instant.
He couldn't withstand such a blow!
However, he had no choice but to verify my guess!
I thought, what he cared about most now was not his own life or death, but who exactly was standing behind the stone door?
Lin Xian finally reached the stone door and hoarsely shouted, "Who are you? Answer me!"
The person behind the stone door was silent for a moment before saying, "Little Junior Brother, long time no see. I'm very happy that you've achieved what you have today!"
"Senior Brother!" Lin Xian's body swayed twice before roaring like a madman, "Bullshit! Who are you?"
The man replied, "I am Xue Jinpeng. What Hall Master Li said is absolutely correct!"
"I don't believe it!" In a fit of rage, Lin Xian grabbed the stone door with both hands at the same time. Countless claw shadows struck the door again and again, and the shattered stone chips flew like rain. The smooth stone door became riddled with holes in just a few seconds.
Lin Xian's offensive did not stop for a moment. He probably thought that if he smashed the stone door, he could reveal the other party's true face and restore the Guiguan Men's reputation!
Ye Yang and I exchanged glances and got up at the same time, approaching Lin Xian silently. One of us reached out and tapped on the other party's acupoints, while the other inserted silver needles into Lin Xian's body.
We had to control Lin Xian's emotions. Otherwise, under extreme emotional stress, he could easily be injured by the force of his own power, or even die on the spot.
After Ye Yang and I stopped Lin Xian, we dragged him back to Lin Zhao's side. If Nie Xiaochun hadn't been supporting Lin Zhao at this time, he might have already fallen to the ground.
Xue Jinpeng couldn't see the scene outside. He probably thought that Lin Xian had stopped after venting his anger and running out of strength. "Little Junior Brother, take a rest first. This stone door is a magical artifact designed to prevent powerful masters from attacking."
"No one can open the stone door from the inside. Your attacks are equivalent to fighting against all the strange ghosts in the ancestral land. Unless you can find more than two hundred masters of the same level as you to attack the stone door together, don't even think about breaking through."
Lin Xian couldn't speak, but tears kept streaming from his eyes.
Seeing that Lin Xian didn't respond, Xue Jinpeng said, "Hall Master Li, can we talk now?"
I replied expressionlessly, "What do you want to talk about?"
Xue Jinpeng said, "With Hall Master Li's wisdom, you should be able to see that I deliberately killed the Coffin Carrier to remind you who the person guarding the stone door is?"
Xue Jinpeng was right. He deliberately cut off the Coffin Carrier's tongue and took away Old Liu's Ghost God. In fact, he was deliberately reminding us that there was a Guiguan Men disciple hidden behind the stone door.
This was also why I was able to sort out the whole story in an instant.
Xue Jinpeng said, "Now that you've guessed my identity, you should also be able to guess my purpose."
"You're not willing to speak, are you waiting for me to state the conditions myself?"
I understood what the other party was thinking: his only barrier was the stone door in front of him. He was afraid that after Ye Yang and I entered the door, we would kill him without saying a word.
Therefore, he had to reach an agreement with me before we entered the door!
I deliberately said, "You want to threaten me?"
"It's not a threat! It can only be considered a gamble!" Xue Jinpeng said, "I know that Hall Master Li has never been threatened by anyone. Therefore, I can only use the lives of Lin Zhao and Lin Xian to gamble on the future of the Guiguan Men!"
"If Hall Master Li cares about the two of them, then make a Heavenly Dao Blood Oath to help me fulfill the Guiguan Men's long-cherished wish."
"If Hall Master Li is unwilling to be threatened, then please go back! The Guiguan Men will still maintain its current state and wait for the next opportunity."
As soon as Xue Jinpeng's words came out, Lin Zhao couldn't bear it any longer and cried uncontrollably.
Lin Zhao roared sharply, "Liar! Xue Jinpeng, your whole family are liars!"
"What brotherly feelings, what sect loyalty, it's all bullshit!"
"You deceived us, you deceived the entire sect, doesn't your heart ache?"
