Yun Lintian spoke calmly. "I have indeed killed some people earlier. Since you knew this, it means you have already known the whole story. It wasn't me who started first, but them. I don't think I have done anything wrong with it." He paused for a moment and continued. "Of course, if you still think I am in the wrong, then I can only say that this Black Wing group is really disappointed me."
Bang!
Gong Yanhong slammed her palm on the table loudly. "Presumptuous! Do you think because Leader Lei has personally recruited you, you can do or say anything as you wanted here?"
Except for Qin Wuji, other elders glanced at each other and remained silent. They were also dissatisfied with Yun Lintian's attitude.
Under everyone's gaze, Yun Lintian actually spread his arms out and said as if it was matter-of-fact. "Isn't it the case?"
Everyone was taken aback and looked at Yun Lintian in incredulity.
Gong Yanhong's face turned gloomy. She said coldly. "Very well. It seems I have to teach you a lesson on Leader Lei's behalf."
Following that, a blazing flame arrow abruptly shot out of Gong Yanhong toward Yun Lintian at lightning speed. Judging from its aura, this attack was contained an incredible amount of profound energy that could easily annihilate anyone below the Saint Profound Realm.
Facing the incoming flame arrow, Yun Lintian raised his palm up, and a blue light instantly flashed.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The blue light spread amidst the sounds of ice congealing as it instantly sealed the room in ice, including the flame arrow. When the sound of ice congealing had stopped, the entire world seemed to have gone quiet in an instance as everyone stared at Yun Lintian in astonishment.
Especially Gong Yanhong. Her expression changed drastically when she saw Yun Lintian simply seal her attack away. As a monarch, she was familiar with this kind of power that Yun Lintian had shown it. This was the fundamental of the domain! He hadn't yet reached the peak of the Heaven Profound Realm, but he had actually become a master of the rule now. What kind of monstrous talent is he?
Her mind turned quickly, and she prepared to launch another attack. However, before she could make a move, the old man who sat in the middle seat suddenly opened his eyes and said. "Back down."
His voice carried a majestic pressure, causing Gong Yanhong to stop her movement and reluctantly sit back on her seat.
The old man turned to look at Yun Lintian and said with a smile. "It is normal for young people to have this temper. Especially a talented young one like this little friend… My name is Lei Jin. Welcome to our Black Wing group."
At this moment, Qin Wuji secretly sent a sound transmission to Yun Lintian. "He's Leader Lei's protector and the great elder of our group."
Yun Lintian retracted his power and clasped his fists together. "Junior Mu greetings Senior Lei."
Yun Lintian could feel this old man wasn't simple since he took a step into the room, and he wasn't surprised about it upon knowing his identity.
Lei Jin stroked his long white beard and said with a smile. "It's been a long time since I met a talented younger generation like you. This old man must say, Young Miss's eyes are really good this time… May I ask where little friend came from? You don't have to answer if it's inconvenient."
"There's nothing inconvenient, Senior. This junior has been living secludedly in the mountain all my life. This time my master sent me out to see the world." Yun Lintian replied humbly.
Lei Jin nodded and said. "Your master must be an extraordinary figure to be able to cultivate such a talented disciple as you."
"Can you tell me your esteemed master's name?" Bailu Jing asked curiously. After witnessing Yun Lintian's power, he wasn't dissatisfied with him anymore as he was someone who respected the strong.
"My master's surname is Mu." Yun Lintian lied without blinking.
"Surname Mu… Could it be that Snow Maiden Mu?" Jiang Mu blurted out.
Everyone's face flashed with a look of enlightenment, and the way they looked at Yun Lintian was entirely changed.
"No wonder. If it's her, then everything can be explained." Song Cang seemed to fully believe this.
Except for Lei Jin, Qin Wuji, and Gong Yanhong, everyone nodded their head in agreement.
At this moment, Gong Yanhong's back was drenched in sweat. If Yun Lintian was truly a Snow Maiden's disciple, she would definitely be in trouble. She had to find a chance to make amends with Yun Lintian as soon as possible.
While everyone was thinking, Yun Lintian was dumbfounded inwardly… Who the heck is Snow Maiden Mu? I just came up with a random name, yet you guys are overthinking it.
Naturally, Yun Lintian wouldn't explain anything and let them misunderstand it so he could add a layer of protection to himself. It could be said this was a beautiful misunderstanding.
Qin Wuji took a sip of tea and said. "Snow Maiden Mu has disappeared more than a hundred years. Who would have thought she lived in the mountain for all this time and even took in a disciple?" As he spoke, he secretly observed Yun Lintian's facial expression, but he could not find anything out of the ordinary. Perhaps Yun Lintian was indeed a Snow Maiden Mu's disciple.
Lei Jin stroked his beard and seemed to recall a distant memory in his mind before saying. "Snow Maiden Mu, Mu Qiuxue… I had a good impression of her. She is a rare genius who came from a commoner background. Her talent can easily sweep everyone in her generation away." He paused for a moment and looked at Yun Lintian. "From your expression, it seems your master had never told you about her past."
What else could he do? Yun Lintian could only play along. "Yes, Senior. Master rarely speaks.. Except for teaching me, she never tells me anything about herself."
