One person: I wanted to give up, but my abilities wouldn't allow it.

Ignoring everything else, Chao Linchen threw the remaining eight beads at him.

Seeing this, Lu Linglong's palms sweated with anxiety.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, let's hurry and go help!"

Lu Jin also realized the seriousness of the matter and dared not hesitate any longer.

He leaped and soared towards the battlefield.

Lu Linglong, Zhi Jinhua, and a group of younger people followed closely behind.

When Yuan Tao saw so many people suddenly rush out of the woods, he knew something was wrong.

It seems they've been ambushed.

The anger gradually subsided, and reason returned.

Lin Chen alone is already difficult enough to deal with, but with Lu Jin, who knows the Tongtian Talisman, they might actually all perish here.

Thinking about this.

Yuan Tao began to consider retiring.

He hurriedly fled in an attempt to retrieve his magical artifact.

However, this time, he couldn't summon the magical artifact that was usually obedient and like his own baby.

It's like we've lost contact with them.

No matter how I try to summon it, it won't come back.

At this moment, Yuan Tao finally realized how terrifying Lin Chen was.

He dared not linger in the fight any longer, abandoning even the nine beads, and roared:

"run!"

Then he grabbed the simpleton next to him and ran away at top speed.

The others also wanted to escape, but they didn't have the same luck as Yuan Tao and Han Dan.

They were all captured by Lu Jin and the juniors he brought.

Lu Jin hesitated for only a moment before making the suggestion:

"Lin Chen, come with me and take care of those two, okay?"

Lin Chen shook his head:

"Grandpa Lu, the mission I was given is to find Xia He, one of the four madmen of Quanxing, the Bone-Scraping Knife. I need to go find her right away."

Lu Jin recalled Xia He's abilities; she was indeed a formidable opponent.

So I stopped inviting them.

"Xia He's abilities are very strange. Be careful not to get hit by her, or you'll become her slave and work like a beast of burden for her!"

Lu Jin kindly reminded him.

Lin Chen nodded slightly:

"Thank you very much, Mr. Lu!"

After bidding farewell to Old Master Lu, Lin Chen hurried towards Tian Jinzhong's courtyard.

He said that on purpose.

Actually, he wasn't exactly lying. The task Xu Si and Xu San gave him was to hold off Xia He, the one who could use the bone-scraping knife.

Little did they know, Xia He had long been conquered by his own virility.

In a quiet courtyard of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Tian Jinzhong, Rong Shan, and the others heard the sounds of fighting outside and their eyes were filled with worry.

Tian Jinzhong is without hands or feet; he is a cripple.

They cannot protect the Celestial Master's Mansion.

He needs someone else to protect him.

Tian Jinzhong felt very guilty.

Hearing the increasingly intense sounds of battle outside, Tian Jinzhong could no longer hold back.

"Rongshan, go help quickly. I have Xiaoqingzi and Xiaoyuzi here, they'll be fine."

Rongshan also really wanted to go out and help.

But remembering his master's instructions to protect Uncle Tian without leaving his side, he forced himself to hold back.

"The safety of the Celestial Master's Mansion is to be taken care of by Lingyu and the other fellow disciples. My task is to protect you, Celestial Master Uncle."

Tian Jinzhong said anxiously:

"What's there to protect about a cripple like me? And who could possibly harm me? You hurry outside and help!"

"No, I promised Master I would never leave your side!"

“If I say it’s okay, then it’s okay. I’ll talk to your master about it later.”

"this…"

Rongshan hesitated when he saw the raging fire outside.

"go quickly!"

"No!" Rong Shan suddenly remembered Lin Chen saying that Uncle Tian would suffer a bloody disaster, and denied it:

"My master told me to protect your safety, so I will stay by your side no matter what."

"You two, one of you go check out the situation outside and come back to tell me!"

Xiao Qingzi, the one Gong Qing was impersonating, rolled his eyes:

"I'll go!"

He returned shortly after, flustered and tearful, saying:

"It's not good, it's not good!"

"what happened?"

Tian Jinzhong and Rong Shan said in unison.

"The Celestial Master's Mansion... The Celestial Master's Mansion was destroyed by those Quanxing heretics!"

Gong Qing, with tears streaming down his face, spoke with deep sorrow and indignation.

"Those beasts!"

Rong Shan slowly clenched his fists, his teeth grinding together, clearly extremely angry.

Gong Qing narrowed his eyes. It seemed that the fire was still a bit too hot and needed to be kindled.

"I also heard... I heard..."

"Hey, what did you hear, Xiao Qingzi? Tell me quickly!"

Rongshan said he was extremely anxious.

"I also heard that Grand Tutor was helping Zhang Chulan learn the Angelic Degree when he was suddenly besieged by the Quanxing people."

"Because the Celestial Master's Mansion could not be stopped midway, he was severely injured and his fate is unknown..."

"Master!"

Rongshan staggered two steps and almost fell.

Upon hearing this, Tian Jinzhong's eyes widened suddenly, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"Rong...Rongshan, go check on him quickly..."

Rongshan immediately stopped hesitating and instructed:

"Xiao Qingzi, Xiao (Li Ma Zhao) Yuzi, take good care of your Grand Tutor. I'll be right back."

"Yes! We will protect Grand Tutor with our lives, so you can go in peace!"

No sooner had Rong Shan left than Gong Qing revealed his true colors.

Taking advantage of Xiaoyuzi's unpreparedness, he knocked him unconscious with a single palm strike.

Tian Jinzhong stared in horror at this scene:

"Xiao Qingzi, what are you trying to do? Are you planning a rebellion?"

"I am not Xiao Qingzi, my name is Gong Qing, and I am the acting leader of Quanxing."

"I was the one who launched today's siege of Longhu Mountain by the Quanxing Sect. The purpose was to trigger the memories in your mind."

"Investigate how the Eight Extraordinary Skills came about and the inside story of the Jia Shen Rebellion."

Tian Jinzhong looked at Gong Qing's ferocious expression and smiled bitterly:

"So Lin Chen was right when he said I was in for some bloodshed. Of all the thieves, it's hard to guard against a thief within your own ranks, and that thief is you!"

"Kill me or torture me as you please, but don't even think about getting anything out of me!"

Gong Qing smiled crookedly:

"Who even asks anymore? Just withdraw it!"

A look of terror appeared in Tian Jinzhong's eyes:

"You...don't come here!"

At this moment, Tian Jinzhong felt utterly hopeless.

Is it possible that the secret he's been trying to protect all these years by staying up all night is about to be lost?

If he had known this would happen, he would have preferred to be dead!

"Lüliang, let's begin!"

Gong Qing called out to the outside.

A man with glasses and a bowl cut slowly walked towards us in the darkness.

"The Lüliang of Quanxing?"

Tian Jinzhong had heard of this person; he could extract memories from other people's minds and know what they wanted to know.

He watched Lü Liang approach him step by step, his eyes filled with deep despair.

He would rather die than tell anyone the secret.

Chapter 75: Gong Qing is captured alive, shocking Tian Jinzhong, and Linglong is rescued.

Lü Liang walked up to Tian Jinzhong, his eyes behind his glasses gleaming with excitement.

Is the truth finally about to come to light?

I can't wait!

Gong Qing slowly clenched his fists, and his expression became excited.

He remained in hiding for three years, a full three years.

Serving tea and water to Tian Jinzhong, cleaning up his excrement and urine, all for this moment.

Is it finally here?

Aha!

So many people wanted to find out the inside story of the Jia Shen Rebellion and how the Eight Wonders came about, but none of them succeeded.

Gong Qing is about to achieve it.

Gong Qing slowly raised his head, gazing at the pitch-black night sky.

His expression was solemn.

This historic moment must be remembered.

This might be the most glorious moment of his life.

Lü Liang's inner thoughts were similar to Gong Qing's.
