There was no movement in the bushes at all in response to the shouts of Gongyang Chi and Dipankara Buddha.
Gongyang Chi could not help but frown. After the incident with Ancestor Minghe, he did not want to wait any longer. He directly threw a palm at the place where he found something wrong.
"Don't, don't do it!"
As Gongyang Chi made his move, a figure jumped out of the bushes and rushed toward Lin Xiao, shouting, "Brother Lin Xiao, don't do it. He's one of us!"
"Wait a minute."
Hearing the voice of the figure, Lin Xiao reached out to stop Gongyang Chi.
Lin Xiao was very familiar with this voice and was sure that it was someone he knew. Although he could not remember it for a while, Lin Xiao still stopped Gongyang Chi.
When the figure rushed in front of him, Lin Xiao's eyes flashed with surprise.
This figure was none other than his old friend, Zhuge Yun.
Lin Xiao and Zhuge Yun were old acquaintances, but unfortunately, they had not seen each other since the beginning of the war. When the Shura Sect attacked the Treasure Pavilion, Lin Xiao even looked for Zhuge Yun, but there was no news. Lin Xiao could only give up. He did not expect to see Zhuge Yun here.
This was Wuji Island!
Even Lin Xiao, under Hei Zi's lead, spent a lot of time and effort to come to Wuji Island. How did Zhuge Yun, a Golden Immortal, come to Wuji Island alone?
Lin Xiao's heart was full of doubts. He looked Zhuge Yun up and down and said, "Brother Zhuge?
Is it really you? "
"It's me, Brother Lin."
Zhuge Yun showed a bitter smile and nodded.
To be honest, Zhuge Yun was also very surprised to see Lin Xiao here.
Just now, the Murong family had been schemed against by Yu Pingchang and Zhou Yuan, and all of them had been wiped out. He wanted to rely on Lin Xiao and ask Lin Xiao to help him take revenge, but in his opinion, Lin Xiao should still be in Zhongzhou and should not be here!
Hearing Zhuge Yun's words, Lin Xiao hesitated for a moment before asking, "Brother Zhuge, what happened?
Why are you here? "
Lin Xiao had a good impression of Zhuge Yun. After all, when he was still weak, Zhuge Yun had helped him a lot. The two of them could be considered old friends. Although he was rejected by Zhuge Yun when he wanted to pull him to his side, it didn't affect their friendship.
Therefore, Lin Xiao walked towards Zhuge Yun without a care in the world. Seeing Lin Xiao's actions, Gong Yangchi reminded him, "Sect Master Lin, this is a special time. You have to be careful!"
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Lin Xiao shook his head gently and walked to Zhuge Yun's side. He reached out to pull him over and said, "Brother Zhuge is my old friend. There won't be a problem."
"Brother Lin, I …"
Hearing Lin Xiao's words, Zhuge Yun's feelings were very complicated.
He didn't expect Lin Xiao to trust him so unconditionally at such a critical moment. However, he had hidden many things from Lin Xiao in the past.
Thinking of this, Zhuge Yun felt a little guilty.
Seeing Zhuge Yun's strange expression, Lin Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Brother Zhuge, it's fine. If there's anything, just say it!"
"Okay."
After hesitating for a moment, Zhuge Yun said, "Brother Lin, I'm sorry. I've been hiding my true identity from you.
Actually, I'm not from Zhen Bao Pavilion, and I'm not called Zhuge Yun.
My real name is Murong Di. I'm the son of the current head of the Murong family, Murong Ke. I'm in Zhen Bao Pavilion because of my father's orders. "
Lin Xiao's trust in Zhuge Yun made Zhuge Yun feel embarrassed to hide it from Lin Xiao. He directly told him his true identity.
"This …"
It had to be said that Lin Xiao was very surprised when he heard this answer.
However, even though he was surprised, this true identity made many things that Lin Xiao had not been able to understand all this time clear up at once.
He frowned. Looking at Zhuge Yun's somewhat distressed appearance, he couldn't help but continue to ask, "You're the young master of the Murong family. Why are you so distressed? What happened just now?"
"It's a long story!"
Zhuge Yun didn't directly answer. Instead, he glanced at Lin Xiao, then at Gong Yangchi and Hei Zi. He gently shook his head.
Although Zhuge Yun didn't say it directly, Lin Xiao could tell from his eyes that Zhuge Yun was asking if he could say it in front of Gong Yangchi and Hei Zi.
Hei Zi was Zhou Yuan's man, and Lin Xiao didn't dare to completely trust Gong Yangchi after the Poison Lord's reminder. Therefore, Lin Xiao gave Zhuge Yun a look and said, "Brother Zhuge, you must have suffered a lot just now. Why don't you take a rest first? We can talk about other things later!"
"Okay, thank you, Brother Lin."
Zhuge Yun quickly understood Lin Xiao's meaning. He deliberately put on a weak expression, as if he was physically exhausted, and said, "I really do need to rest."
"Okay, here are three pills. Take them and rest for a while."
Lin Xiao also nodded. He took out three immortal pills for recovery and handed them to Zhuge Yun. He continued, "Let's rest for a while before we continue."
Although the Poison Lord's matter was very urgent, Lin Xiao also needed an opportunity to ask Zhuge Yun what had happened. Therefore, a short rest wouldn't affect their progress.
"Thank you."
Zhuge Yun very cooperatively took the pills, walked to a nearby tree, and sat down. He began to circulate his Qi and adjust his breathing. Lin Xiao also sat beside him, while Gong Yangchi and Hei Zi sat not far away.
Leaning against the tree trunk, Lin Xiao asked telepathically, "Brother Zhuge, what happened?"
"The Murong family … has been annihilated!
The Murong family was originally the master of the Wuji Island. This time, my father brought us to the Wuji Island to improve our strength at our ancestral land's Spirit Spring. But we didn't expect that the people from the Equipment Refining Sect had done something to our Spirit Spring and poisoned us. We've fallen into their trap! "
Zhuge Yun's voice was bitter and his expression was pained. He said to Lin Xiao telepathically, "My father and clansmen were controlled by the evil creatures of the Equipment Refining Sect's Yu Pingchang. Their blood essence was sucked dry. I escaped because I didn't absorb the energy of the Spirit Spring!"
"What!"
Hearing this, Lin Xiao was very surprised.
So, the Murong family was the master of the Wuji Island that the Blade Of The Undead had mentioned. The people from the Equipment Refining Sect had done something to the Spirit Spring and annihilated the Murong family!
Fortunately, they didn't go to the Spirit Spring in their ancestral land. Otherwise, wouldn't they have fallen into the trap?
It seemed that he had suddenly vomited blood because Murong Niu had died at the hands of Yu Pingchang's evil creatures, and not because the Second Elder had been exposed.
