I really can't control myself

When Linton came back, he found that the entrance to the ancient tomb was busy again. From a distance, Linton saw two groups of people. Oh, no, it was one person holding another person hostage and confronting another large group of people.

Seeing this, Linton slapped his forehead and suddenly realized that he had almost forgotten about it. Just now, Fang Chong was holding Qi Xiaoyue hostage. Because a bigger fish appeared earlier, Linton's attention was completely focused on the bigger fish, and he completely forgot about the kidnapping.

Now that the fish over there was already taken care of by someone, Linton thought for a while and decided to take care of this small one.

Although the situation at the scene was obviously tense, seeing Linton coming in with the portal open immediately forced both parties to calm down.

Linton also took the opportunity to take a look at the situation. The Tianlong siblings and Qiming Taoist were standing aside, obviously not involved in this matter. The reason why the two sides were so excited again was that there was one more person present.

This is a middle-aged man who looks to be forty to fifty years old, wearing a decent Taoist robe. Linton, on the other hand, knew the other party's identity right away and didn't need anyone to introduce him. Because when Linton opened the door and came over, he heard this man shouting "Evil disciple, evil disciple" to Fang Chong, so this person was obviously the master of Fang Chong, Li Yunshan and others.

Linton had heard from Taoist Qiming before that there was usually someone who would lead the team. It seemed that Fang Chong had said that someone was responsible for luring the master away. Now it seems that he has come here.

And judging from his twisted expression, he probably already knew what was happening here. Just looking at it makes me want to go up and eat Fang Chong directly.

Of course, the result of this terrifying expression is that Fang Chong here is holding people tighter. After all, the savior in his eyes has been beaten and fled by Linton, and now it seems that his life can only be grasped by his hands. The man inside is a hostage.

"This fellow Taoist." At this time, the master also asked Linton, "I, Taoist Xuanqing, may I ask how the Holy Son of Xuanji Sect is doing?"

Obviously he knew that Linton went after Changsun Yue. To be honest, he was quite surprised when he heard his apprentice say this. Because through his disciple's description, he quickly determined the identity of the protector beside Changsun Yue, who was He Tianqi, one of the top ten protectors of Xuanji Sect.

The top ten protectors of Xuanji Sect are not in vain. If they really fight, he will think that he is no match. But judging from his disciple's statement, Linton not only defeated He Tianqi, but also crushed him. Because the two sides only fought for one round, after a punch, He Tianqi immediately chose to run away after the second blow.

Making the choice to run away so quickly, He Tianqi obviously knew that Linton was not something he could deal with. This only meant that Linton's strength was not even on the same level as He Tianqi's.

So what level is Linton? Not only is he not at the same level as him, but maybe his ancestors are not at this level either. How terrifying this is.

Now that they had met, he failed to recognize Linton. But for a monk of this level, theoretically speaking, he should be able to recognize it immediately. So clearly there's something weird about this guy.

But put aside the weird things for now, because the most important problem to solve now is Fang Chong's problem. The granddaughter of his ancestor was still in the hands of others. If something really happened, he didn't know how to explain it to his ancestor.

He led the team out, but now he has lost three people, and there is also a traitor in his name. In this situation, he no longer knows how to resist this responsibility. If something happens to Qi Xiaoyue again, this situation will obviously come to an end.

So he was not in a hurry to ask about Linton's identity now. The first thing he asked about was Sun Yue, the head of the Xuanji Sect.

"Oh, that guy ran away." Linton said.

"Run away?" Several people from the Zixiao Sword Sect still had no reaction. Chu Chengwen here looked at Linton with a somewhat exaggerated reaction and asked.

Chu Chengwen was obviously quite shocked. After all, the guy being chased by Linton could actually run away? This is unrealistic. To be honest, according to Chu Chengwen's understanding of Linton, shouldn't Linton be carrying the eldest son Yue directly to Xuanji Sect at this time?

It was already very wrong for Linton to come back so soon, and he actually said that the other party had run away. What was going on?

"The main thing is that I met his father when I chased him..." Linton said.

"His father? Are you talking about the eldest grandson Wuhu? The master of Xuanji Sect?" Upon hearing this, Taoist Xuanqing here could not hold back his doubts.

"Yes." Linton nodded.

"Then you..." Taoist Xuanqing originally wanted to blurt out and ask you how you came back, but he came back to his senses as soon as he said two words. Yes, wasn't it just a guess that this guy named Linton might be as powerful as his ancestor? From his filtered perspective, his ancestor was on the same level as the master of the Xuanji Sect, so it seemed like it would be okay to come back. Strange.

The main reason is that Linton's age and lack of any aura of coercion make people always ignore his strength, even if it has been proven. So halfway through asking this question, he suddenly realized that there was no further question.

But he didn't ask. Chu Chengwen next to him continued what he said: "Then you let him run away too?"

"Huh?" Several people from the Zixiao Sword Sect looked at Chu Chengwen in shock when they heard this. How did you say this? What does it mean to let someone run away? Who is the identity of the leader of the Xuanji Sect? He is one of the top beings in the entire world of immortality. Why is your first reaction that he was beaten away by Linton?

"Hey, isn't this a mistake? At first I thought I didn't know him, but when I went over to see him, I not only knew him, but he was one of my own. I let him go back with his annoying son," Linton said truthfully.

"..." Not only the Zixiao Sword Sect, but also Tianli and Qiming Taoist priests also looked at Linton with disbelief, as if they were talking nonsense.

The only person at the scene who believed in Linton was Chu Chengwen, because he knew that when Linton said something that sounded like nonsense, it was basically the actual situation. Is this Xuanji Sect leader one of our own? As far as he knew, Linton was not from outside the world, so why were there still people of his own here? I always feel like there's something strange here.

"Anyway... Anyway, you heard it, Nie Zhan." Taoist Xuanqing here ignored Linton's explanation, thinking that Linton didn't want to say it. He had no time to continue asking questions for the time being, and instead turned to Fang Chong. He said, "The people from the Xuanji Sect have left. You have no way out. If you don't let go of Xiaoyue right away, come back with me to accept the punishment from the sect!"
