Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

The most depressed person in the Acropolis right now is none other than Lin Hu.

For tonight's action, Lin Hu has put in a lot of effort and has used all the forces he has hidden for a long time. It can be said that he was absolutely confident at the beginning of the action.

If everything goes according to his plan, he will not only have captured Zuo Feng, but also be far away from the Acropolis, taking Zuo Feng away and flying freely.

After finding a suitable place, Lin Hu only needs to use his means to dig out the secrets of Zuo Feng bit by bit. Not only will the Eight Gates Locking Array fall into his hands, but there are also many secrets of Zuo Feng that even he cannot see through.

However, things did not go as he wished. Tonight's action has been beyond Lin Hu's prediction since the beginning. Even though the force he mobilized in the actual action was more than ten times higher than his initial plan, it still failed in the end.

And now that he thinks back carefully, not only did he fail inexplicably, but the whole action was full of weirdness.

Zuo Feng was prepared, which was a problem Lin Hu discovered after he started. He didn't know where he had revealed his flaws, but even if the other party used the formation to assist, he didn't think he would fail.

But the final result was still a failure, and the failure was very abrupt. So many warriors that he had arranged outside the trading house were completely killed in a few breaths.

Now not only did he offend Duobao Trading House, but also the "old boss Ben" Xiaoge, and even the entire Ye Lin Empire.

Seeing the chaos in the city now, especially the large number of monsters slaughtering humans in groups, Lin Hu couldn't help but be full of questions.

Lin Hu led his men and ran quickly in the city. At first, he wanted to track Zuo Feng, but now he has begun to lose heart. After running so far, he still didn't find any trace of Zuo Feng. There is only one possibility, that the direction they were looking for was wrong from the beginning.

Even if he understood all this now, Lin Hu had no other options. After all, the huge Acropolis was in such a mess, and it would be extremely difficult to find Zuo Feng.

In Lin Hu's heart, he had already made a judgment that he could not stay in the Acropolis any longer. Otherwise, once the monsters were quelled, he would be the one who would be in trouble.

But if he gave up, Lin Hu would be unwilling. Things had come to this point, Zuo Feng had not been captured, and he might have to flee to the ends of the earth, and even hiding in the Xuanwu Empire would not be safe. How could Lin Hu accept such a result?

As everyone was moving forward quickly, a person suddenly walked out slowly in front of the street. The other party was wrapped in a gray-black cloak, and his figure and appearance could not be seen at all.

But the other party appeared here at this time without haste. It was obvious that this person was deliberately waiting for Lin Hu and others. The moment he saw the other party, Lin Hu was already on high alert, looking at the person in front of him coldly, and his speed slowed down accordingly.

The warriors behind Lin Hu also saw the person who suddenly appeared in front of them, but since Lin Hu did not give any orders, they all followed behind and did not make any further moves.

Seeing that the two sides were getting closer and closer, and finally when they were only about 70 or 80 feet away, Lin Hu stopped. Staring coldly at the man in the cloak in front of him, he raised his hand and made a gesture behind him.

More than a dozen warriors behind him quickly rushed out and dispersed like fans on both sides. Some jumped onto the roof, and some rushed into the rooms on both sides.

These people quickly checked the surrounding environment to avoid someone ambushing on both sides to launch a surprise attack on them. However, after a check, Lin Hu's men did not see any figure, and then they all made gestures to Lin Hu.

After seeing this, Lin Hu was even more surprised. The person in front of him could appear here so "coincidentally", obviously he was well prepared. But he did not bring any men with him, which made Lin Hu feel puzzled and more vigilant.

The other party dared to come here alone. If he was not a madman eager to die, then he had absolute confidence in his own strength. In Lin Hu's opinion, the latter possibility was obviously greater.

Looking at the person in front of him vigilantly, Lin Hu raised his hand again and made a gesture. Although the warriors scattered around did not take any further action, they were all ready to take action at any time. These dozen people can not only guard the surroundings, but if Lin Hu takes action, they can also cooperate with him in the first time to form a joint attack.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking our way here?"

Looking at his men who have been ambushed around him, Lin Hu asked coldly. If it were someone else, Lin Hu might not waste words and would directly capture the other party.

However, the person in front of him was very strange. On the surface, he could not feel the fluctuation of spiritual power, and he could not find out the depth of his cultivation. And Lin Hu knew very well that the person in front of him could never be an ordinary person without cultivation. It can only mean that the other party's cultivation and strength are probably stronger than himself.

The man in the cloak slowly raised his head and looked towards Zuo Feng, and said, "Young Pavilion Master, please do not worry about who I am. I am just an insignificant little character. I came here to stop you just to discuss a cooperation."

"Cooperation?" Lin Hu smiled coldly and said, "What I despise most are those who hide their true colors and dare not even show their true faces. How can we talk about so-called cooperation? It's just a joke."

The man in the cloak did not seem angry at Lin Hu's face-to-face rejection. Instead, there was a faint smile in his eyes.

I can't tell why, when I saw the change in the other person's eyes, Lin Hu felt a very familiar feeling in his heart. Although I couldn't remember where I had seen this look for a while, I was sure that the person in front of me was definitely someone I knew.

The man in the cloak spoke again: "I think the young pavilion master should know what tonight's action means to you. Success or failure will determine your future situation. I don't think I need to list the consequences of failure one by one. I just think that if we can cooperate with each other, the chances of successfully capturing Zuo Feng may be much greater."

The other party stated his purpose as soon as he opened his mouth. Almost at the moment he heard the word "Zuo Feng", Lin Hu's whole body seemed to tense up instantly, and he looked like a beast ready to attack at any time.

The man in the cloak smiled and waved his hand, saying: "Young Pavilion Master, don't misunderstand. If I want to get a share, I will act alone. Now I come to see you alone, isn't this enough to show my sincerity? Or to put it another way, if I really have other intentions, then the people standing here should be Wu Tian and others from Benxiao Pavilion."

Although Lin Hu didn't want to admit it in his heart, after listening to the other party's analysis, Lin Hu accepted this statement and gradually calmed down. The other party's analysis was correct. If the other party just wanted to get rid of him, or to capture Zuo Feng alone, there was no need for him to come to see him alone.

Originally, after seeing the other party, Lin Hu had been looking for an opportunity to take action, regardless of life or death, to deal with the other party first. Just as he said, a person who hides his head and shows his tail will only make Lin Hu full of vigilance and caution.

But now the reason given by the other party finally moved Lin Hu, so Lin Hu did not continue to pester the other party about hiding his identity, but after a little thought, he asked: "How do you plan to cooperate, and what do you want to get!"

The man in the cloak smiled and said, "You and I have the same goal, and what I want is to share what you get."

"This is impossible, don't dream there, if this is the condition, I advise you not to waste your time here." Lin Hu rejected the other party's proposal without hesitation.

The man in the cloak did not seem surprised, but continued: "The sharing I mentioned does not include the most important Eight Gates Locking Array. But I also need you to promise me that if you can obtain that array, you must accept me into it for refuge at a critical moment."

Faced with this condition, Lin Hu was silent for a moment, and did not rush to give his answer, but asked: "If it is such a condition, I can accept it. But I want to know what you can provide me, or you can regard it as a cooperation. What do you need from me?"

The man in the cloak nodded and said: "I can tell you the current situation of the Acropolis and what kind of situation all forces are in."

Glancing at Lin Hu opposite, although there was no big change on the surface, his eyes just flickered slightly, and it was obvious that he was very interested in this.

The man in the cloak continued, "And I can help you find Zuo Feng, and with my help, you will be able to capture Zuo Feng."

"Don't say that I have this group of capable subordinates, even if I rely on myself, it is more than enough to capture Zuo Feng, you just need to provide me with clues."

Lin Hu looked proud. The most difficult thing for him was to find Zuo Feng. As for capturing him, it was not a problem at all. After all, the power that Zuo Feng could rely on was just the formation in the back garden of Duobao Trading House. Now that he had left Duobao Trading House, he had no ability to resist.

The man in the cloak smiled faintly and said, "If I tell you that there is a seventh-level monster beside Zuo Feng, and it is a seventh-level peak monster, do you still think it will be as easy to capture Zuo Feng as you imagined?"

"What! A seventh-level monster, and it is a seventh-level peak strength, how can this..., no wonder,... no wonder!"

Suddenly hearing the words of the person opposite, Lin Hu felt a little unbelievable, but thinking of his subordinates who were killed instantly outside Duobao Trading House, it proved that what the person in front of him said was true.
