Three years of Tianxuan?
Ten years of mastery?
Lin Jiangnian was shocked. If he was not someone who had some understanding of the realm of martial arts, it would be difficult to understand the shock of this.
Although the realm of martial arts is divided from ninth to first grade, there is no clear division before the fifth grade Wuxiang realm, which is also the level that most martial artists in the world find difficult to break through in their lifetime.
After the fifth level, for most people, it would take several years, more than ten years, or even decades to get a glimpse of any higher level.
The progress between each realm is not a simple accumulation. Stepping into the next realm is almost equivalent to a qualitative leap.
The higher you go, the harder it gets!
Lin Jiangnian was already shocked to learn that Liu Su had almost reached the level of a second-grade Tianxuan. Now Lin Hengzhong said that she was expected to enter the Grandmaster realm within ten years, which made Lin Jiangnian even more astonished.
Grandmaster level? !
Looking around the world, there are only a handful of Grandmasters in the entire Daning Dynasty, and those who can reach this level are all geniuses. But even so, reaching the Grandmaster level usually requires at least forty to fifty years!
The youngest person in the world to reach the Grandmaster level today is Lin Hengzhong. But even he was nearly forty years old when he reached the Grandmaster level.
Ten years of hope?
Liu Su is only twenty years old now, and even in ten years he won’t be thirty yet. How can a genius who is under thirty become a master?
So terrifying!
Lin Jiangnian suppressed his shock. If it was true as Lin Hengzhong said, and he could subdue Liu Su, it would be like having a future master protecting him.
Does this also mean that Lin Jiangnian will be able to walk freely in the world in the future?!
Thinking of this, Lin Jiangnian collected his thoughts and said in a deep voice, "I've thought it through..."
"Please, Dad, hand her over to me."
The tone was firm and decisive.
Lin Hengzhong looked at him, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, and nodded slightly: "Okay, since you have made up your mind, then Dad will not interfere too much."
"I hope you won't let Dad down!"
Lin Jiangnian lowered his head and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I can handle it."
"good!"
Lin Heng nodded, looked at Lin Jiangnian deeply, and turned to leave.
Lin Jiangnian stood in the yard, watching Lin Hengzhong's back disappear through the doorway. For a long time, there was no movement.
The look of surprise and suspicion still remained in his eyes.
He always felt that everything that happened tonight was a little weird, but he couldn't put his finger on it!
Perhaps the most surprising thing is Lin Hengzhong's attitude... He knew that Lin Jiangnian was hiding an assassin, but he didn't seem angry?
More like...predicted?
Lin Jiangnian frowned and pondered for a long time. Finally, he turned his head and looked at the room behind him.
…
In the quiet room, the oil lamp on the table was half burned.
Liu Su, wearing a light-colored skirt, was still sitting quietly at the table, staring at the oil lamp on the table with her beautiful eyes, lost in thought.
I don’t know what he was thinking about, there seemed to be a trace of trance on his cold face, and he didn’t come back to his senses for a long time.
Until footsteps were heard outside the door, and Lin Jiangnian's figure appeared. He entered the room, closed the door, turned around, walked to the table, sat down, and stared at her.
Liu Su also raised her eyes and met Lin Jiangnian's eyes.
"What did he tell you?"
After a moment's silence, Lin Jiangnian was the first to speak.
Liu Su seemed to come back to her senses. She looked him over, shook her head slightly, and said calmly, "Anything else you can ask?"
"It's just why I assassinated him..."
Lin Jiangnian frowned.
"That's all?"
"What else?"
Liu Su asked back, then fell silent again, lowering her eyes: "I still underestimated him, it turns out..."
"He already knew everything..."
"Um?"
Lin Jiangnian frowned even deeper: "What do you mean?"
"He already knew I was from the Celestial God Cult!"
As if thinking of something, a trace of fear flashed in Liu Su's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "He might even know my life experience!"
"life experience?!"
Lin Jiangnian looked stunned: "He knows your background?"
Could it be that Lin Hengzhong knows her?!
"He said I looked a lot like an old friend of his..."
There seemed to be a hint of confusion in Liu Su's eyes.
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes: "Lin Hengzhong knows your parents?"
"I have no idea."
Liu Su shook her head slightly, her expression still confused.
When Lin Hengzhong suddenly mentioned that she looked very similar to an old friend of his, she had already realized something.
Her heart tightened slightly.
"Then, your parents..."
Lin Jiangnian was about to ask, but saw Liu Su's calm eyes and spoke lightly.
"Dead."
Lin Jiangnian was stunned and remained silent, without asking any further questions.
He seemed to have guessed something.
"Then why did you want to assassinate King Lin?"
Lin Jiangnian asked again: "Revenge for your parents?"
Did her parents die at the hands of Lin Hengzhong?
Liu Su was silent for a moment, nodded, and then shook her head: "I guess so."
What does this mean?
Lin Jiangnian wanted to continue asking, but Liu Su did not answer.
She seemed to have regained some spirit, looked up at him, and said with a slightly surprised look, "I didn't expect that I can't die!"
There seemed to be a bitter smile on her face, as if it was self-mockery. She had already prepared herself to die.
But unexpectedly, he survived.
It's really fate!
"I saved you."
Lin Jiangnian knocked on the table and reminded her: "The person you should thank is me."
Of course, she heard the conversation outside the door earlier, and she knew that it was indeed Lin Jiangnian who saved her life.
Even she hadn't expected that Lin Hengzhong doted on his only son to such an extent... For his son's sake, he would even let the assassin who wanted to assassinate him go?!
Is this really the same King Lin who was decisive and feared by the people of the world?
"so what?"
After a brief moment of distraction, Liu Su looked at Lin Jiangnian quietly, "What are you going to do with me?"
"Antidote!"
Lin Jiangnian stretched out his hand: "Give me the antidote to the love poison first."
Liu Su was startled and shook her head gently: "Didn't I tell you that there is no antidote for love poison?"
"I don't quite believe it. I always suspect you are lying to me."
Lin Jiangnian stared into her eyes: "Is there really no antidote for love poison?!"
His burning gaze suddenly stared at her. Liu Su was stunned. A trace of panic seemed to flash across her eyes subconsciously, but quickly disappeared.
"No."
She lowered her eyes and said calmly, "The love Gu has already merged into your body, gradually becoming one with you. From the beginning to the end, there has been no antidote."
Lin Jiangnian still stared into her eyes: "You mean, I will be controlled by you for the rest of my life and used by you?"
Liu Su said calmly: "Am I not in your hands now?"
“This is different!”
Lin Jiangnian shook his head. Liu Su was indeed seriously injured at his hands, but this was only temporary. He had no confidence in fully controlling this woman who might very well become a Grandmaster in the future!
What's more, she is so smart?
Lin Jiangnian had even less confidence that he would not be tricked by her.
so……
"If you don't give me the antidote..."
Lin Jiangnian was silent for a while: "Then don't blame me for being rude!"
Liu Su looked at him quietly: "How do you want to be rude?"
"You should have heard it too... Lin Hengzhong handed you over to me!"
Lin Jiangnian looked her up and down and said, "This means that your life and death are now in my hands."
"Then what?"
Liu Su raised her eyes slightly, as if she was not worried about what Lin Jiangnian would do to her.
"If you don't give me the antidote and cure the poison in my body..."
Lin Jiangnian stared at her and said in a deep voice, "I can only drag you into the water with me!"
"Go into the water?" Liu Su was stunned, not quite understanding.
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes and said, "You should have heard that there is a water prison in Prince Lin's Mansion, right?"
Hearing this, Liu Su's expression changed slightly: "What do you want to say?!"
"What do you think?"
Lin Jiangnian looked at him expressionlessly.
She was a smart person and naturally understood what Lin Jiangnian meant.
The poison in Lin Jiangnian's body has not been cured, which means that she can always control Lin Jiangnian's life.
In this case, Lin Jiangnian cannot help but be on guard.
"For my own safety, and to avoid being controlled by you, I will lock you up there..."
"As long as you don't give me the antidote, you will never be able to get out of there..."
Lin Jiangnian stared at her and spoke word by word.
Liu Su's expression finally changed.
She looked at Lin Jiangnian's sharp eyes, and a hint of panic finally appeared on her cold and pale face.
She had been in Prince Lin's mansion for half a year, how could she not know the horror of the water dungeon?
That's not a place for people to stay at all.
If she fell there, it would be a severe torture for her body and mind.
She might as well die...
"Are you crazy?!"
Liu Su gritted her teeth, her expression changing slightly.
"Yes, I am crazy!"
Lin Jiangnian stared at her and said coldly, "Either you give me the antidote, or find a way to remove the poison from my body..."
"Or, we'll both die together!"
"Let's see who kills the other first!"
“!!!”
There will be another chapter later, don’t wait, please read it tomorrow. I don’t know when it will be written, and it will be difficult to wrap up the plot!
