Chapter 2100: Chapter 2097: Unexpected Incident
After breakfast, Lin Tian, along with several young ladies, was about to go out to watch Ghost practice martial arts, and incidentally to see his true strength. Suddenly, the phone rang with a notification sound.
The girls all looked at him, clearly somewhat puzzled, wondering who would be contacting him at this time. Lin Tian kept walking while pulling out his phone and glanced at it. There were only a few simple words: Jinghua University, immediately.
Lin Tian frowned, not because of the seemingly commanding tone, but because there was an urgency in the brief message.
"What’s happened?" Miss somehow keenly observed the change in Lin Tian’s expression at the first moment.
Lin Tian put away his phone without answering and directly said, "You guys go ahead, I have some matters to attend to."
After speaking, he headed towards the main gate where the garage was positioned, completely opposite to the direction of Yun Tian’s practice area on the back hill.
"Has something happened, Brother Lin is in such a hurry?" Yun Xiaotian asked worriedly.
Miss didn’t speak but looked at her sister, seemingly knowing she had the answer. Xiao Manxuan thought for a moment, unsure, said, "It could be him?"
"Who?" Both women asked in unison.
Lin Tian moved quickly, having already moved beyond the audible range of the women’s voices. After grabbing his car from the garage, he promptly left the Yun Family estate.
Thanks to the smart system Little Ya, Lin Tian avoided the traffic jams in Jinghua City and swiftly arrived at Jinghua University. With it being winter break, the campus was nearly empty and very quiet.
Lin Tian slowed down the car, relying on his instinct to drive, as the message didn’t specify the location within the school. He was about to activate his super vision to search for suspicious figures when a strange sound suddenly appeared.
"Quack Quack..."
It was like the croak of a frog, yet resembled a crow’s caw, eerie for broad daylight. Lin Tian quickly turned the car around, driving onto a small path. At the end of the path, under a large tree, stood a Black Robed Man, with a black bird perched on the tree branch above him.
Lin Tian drove in front of the Black Robed Man, braking to a stop. He opened the window but did not step out, speaking coldly, "Yasuo, you’re indeed becoming bolder, daring to swagger alone into Jinghua City."
Confronting him was Secret Master Yasuo, under Xu Feibai’s command, though there was no trace of Xu Feibai nearby.
"Respected Lord Lin Tian, our master requests your presence." Yasuo gave a bow, speaking with exceptional politeness, starkly different from his former brutal and cold demeanor, possibly a result of Xu Feibai’s training.
Yet Lin Tian knew, Yasuo was outwardly respectful but inwardly remained brutal, perhaps still contemplating betrayal against his master.
"Where is Xu Feibai, why didn’t he come himself?" Lin Tian said coldly.
"Master is still in Japan, unable to spare himself." Yasuo still maintained his respectful appearance.
Lin Tian raised an eyebrow, catching on to the key point: "Unable to spare himself, seems he’s encountered trouble and needs my help."
Yasuo appeared surprised for a moment, but quickly resumed his respectful expression, "Indeed, that is precisely what our master instructed, hoping Lord Lin Tian would take a trip abroad."
"Get in the car." Lin Tian said without wasting words, coldly, as the rear door automatically opened.
Yasuo seemed to hesitate for a moment, but eventually boarded Lin Tian’s vehicle, cautiously noting, "Our master has already prepared a plane at the international airport."
Lin Tian was not surprised; given the Xu Family’s power, possessing a private jet was quite normal. The Xu Family had been established in Japan for over two millennia; their strength surpassed even the Japan Royal Family.
Soon, Lin Tian left Jinghua University, driving towards the international airport. Along the way, he glanced at Yasuo through the rear-view mirror, coolly remarking, "Are you contemplating how sure you are in launching a surprise attack on me from behind?"
Yasuo was startled, quickly replying, "I wouldn’t dare. You are the master’s distinguished guest; how could I harbor such thoughts?"
Lin Tian did not refute him but continued, "You’re imagining that after swallowing me, you’d return to swallow Xu Feibai too, rendering you invincible throughout the world, correct?"
A drop of sweat traced down Yasuo’s forehead; he didn’t dare wipe it, nor defend himself, fearful that saying a single word would incur Lin Tian’s wrath.
Lin Tian’s eyes flashed a hint of amusement, yet his tone was icy: "Remember, the only reason you’re still alive and kicking is because of Xu Feibai."
Throughout, Yasuo didn’t dare speak further. Upon arriving at the airport, they boarded through a special passage onto the plane. The aircraft taxied, took off, with the destination being Japan.
Lin Tian did not inquire about the specific location, letting Yasuo lead the way. To Lin Tian’s surprise, the plane landed somewhere quite familiar—Capital City Kyoto, where the previous jade auction happened, attracting various oddities.
Off the plane, they transferred to a helicopter for another flight. Xu Feibai’s arrangements were urgent, employing the fastest modes of transport.
The helicopter departed from the city area, flying higher as below grew more desolate. But Lin Tian frowned; an air of familiarity arose. When a small hill appeared, he finally realized where Xu Feibai was taking him.
A Shrine—this hill was the location of the Shrine, formerly Oda Manaka’s base of operations. What puzzled Lin Tian was the Shrine had unexpectedly been concealed by a Barrier, making the buildings on the hill invisible.
The helicopter landed at the foot of the hill, Lin Tian jumped from the cabin, suddenly asking Yasuo, "Who sent me the message?"
Yasuo paused before quickly answering, "It was the master."
"That’s good, you’ve salvaged half your life." Lin Tian said blandly; those words landed in Yasuo’s ears, causing he faltered, nearly tumbling off the helicopter.
"Lin Tian, ever since you returned from the Netherworld, your evil qi has deepened; don’t scare the children." A voice came from the grove.
Lin Tian turned around to see a man with an ancient demeanor emerge—it was Xu Feibai, accompanied by several others, one masked—the masked man seen earlier at Jinghua University.
The other two wore black robes embroidered with a peculiar pattern; one of them pulled down their hood, revealing their true face.
It was a woman, with exquisite fair skin, yet her gaze was elusive—this woman looked exactly like Li Qingyun!
Lin Tian squinted slightly, coldly saying: "Oda Manaka!"
The Shrine’s master, always scheming to obtain the Xiao Family’s elixir recipe, also a Gu Cultivator.
Seeking revenge, she used Gu techniques to transform her appearance to match Li Qingyun’s. A woman in her seventies or eighties, with an appearance and figure as youthful as a thirty-year-old.
"So, it is little brother Lin Tian..." Oda Manaka showed a seductive smile, her eyes captivating and alluring, as her nimble tongue inadvertently stretched out, licking her rosy lips.
Bewitching Technique—Japan’s Bewitching Technique, brought from Huaxia by Yuzaoqian, unleashed upon Lin Tian at first meeting by Oda Manaka. Whether aiming to control Lin Tian, to give a subtle warning, or reconcile for the Shrine’s destruction, her Bewitching Technique surpassed Charlotte’s in strength.
Nearby Yasuo’s gaze grew hazy for a moment, then revealed a lustful expression—succumbing to the technique.
Lin Tian remained expressionless, extending his hand as a purple flame flower bloomed in his palm!
