Originally, Mo Lin wasn't so keen on dealing with the Gen Family.
But at this moment, he changed his mind.
He must destroy the Gen Family.
The Gen Family....
"I can't break the rules; Mo Lin has cultivated the Immortal Technique. At our first meeting, I can't kill him." Gu Yan stood in the courtyard, speaking slowly to a middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man was the patriarch of the Gen Family, Geng Hong.
"Our Gen Family has spent so much money on you, you should know that." Geng Hong reminded Gu Yan.
"I understand, I won't let your Gen Family spend money for nothing.
When I meet Mo Lin for the second time, I must kill him."
Gu Yan's eyes revealed a murderous intent, "Even though Mo Lin possesses the Immortal Technique, I have the means to kill him."
Upon hearing Gu Yan's words, the man showed a satisfied smile.
Geng Hong patted Gu Yan's shoulder and then cautioned, "Don't make me wait too long."
"It won't take long, tomorrow I'll go see Mo Lin and take his life." Gu Yan straightforwardly promised Geng Hong.
After all, he possesses Immortal Level Immortal Technique, dealing with Mo Lin would be effortlessly.
At least he was quite confident in his own strength.
"By the way, I heard outside Hongzhou, there's an invasion of evil spirits from the Underworld, they've slaughtered many people." Gu Yan asked the middle-aged man, "Should we take action against those evil spirits?"
"Don't meddle in unnecessary matters; isn't death quite normal?
As long as those evil spirits don't harm our Gen Family, just ignore them." The middle-aged man snorted coldly.
"Understood." Gu Yan inwardly ridiculed Geng Hong's hypocrisy.
If Geng Hong was simply unwilling to deal with evil spirits, that would be one thing.
But the key is that Geng Hong presented one face in public and another behind the scenes, which was really disgusting.
Previously, Geng Hong even announced to many people that if evil spirits invaded, the Gen Family would definitely intervene and eliminate them.
The Gen Family even collected protection fees from some county towns.
Many people in the towns relied on the Gen Family to eliminate evil spirits and save them.
Those people definitely couldn't imagine that Geng Hong never intended to eliminate the evil spirits.
No matter what, in the end, those ordinary people were still the unlucky ones.
...
Hongzhou was completely different from yesterday.
Yesterday, Hongzhou was still prosperous, and one could see smiling faces.
Today is different.
On the streets, everyone wore a solemn expression.
Many ordinary people were organizing their belongings at this moment.
There were also many Daoist Cultivators gathered together, discussing something.
"Master Mo." A familiar voice rang out.
Following the direction of the voice, it was Zhong Yangxi.
I didn't expect her to also come to Hongzhou.
"Master Mo, are you here to resist the evil spirits from the Underworld as well?"
Many Daoist Cultivators had come to Hongzhou intending to resist the evil spirits, including Zhong Yangxi.
Zhong Yangxi thought Mo Lin was like her, coming to Hongzhou also to resist the evil spirits.
Beside Zhong Yangxi were more than twenty people.
They seemed to have formed a small group.
"Let me introduce you all, this is Master Mo, very powerful."
"With him joining our team, it surely increases our chances of victory." Zhong Yangxi pointed at Mo Lin and introduced him to everyone present.
Mo Lin surveyed the group before him.
The group was very mixed; Daoist Cultivators, Ghost Cultivators, and Red Dust Immortals.
Through mutual understanding, Mo Lin realized that none of these people knew each other before, and today was their first meeting.
Before coming here, everyone was prepared to die.
Whether it be evil spirits or the Gen Family, they were all targets Mo Lin needed to deal with.
Mo Lin thought for a moment and decided to handle the evil spirits first.
Even if Mo Lin decided not to deal with these evil spirits now, they would trouble Mo Lin in the future.
Either way, there would be a battle with the evil spirits.
Mo Lin glanced around, noticing that there were many temporary groups like Zhong Yangxi's.
These people had all voluntarily come to resist the evil spirits.
"West County of Hongzhou, evil spirits invaded, everyone is dead."
"On the east side of Hongzhou, Linju County, evil spirits invaded, not a single person survived."
"East Mountain County, everyone is dead, not a single person survived."
One voice after another came through.
Everyone present was furious upon hearing these words.
From yesterday to today, it's been less than twenty-four hours.
Residents in three counties were completely wiped out.
This is too terrifying.
At this moment, Dao Wuxuan, dressed in a gray and white magical robe, stood at the farthest point and shouted loudly.
"Wherever the evil spirits pass, there are absolutely no survivors.
We must resist the evil spirits, otherwise, if they expand, everyone in the human world will face extinction."
These words were very penetrating.
Everyone understood one truth: the broken egg cannot survive under the fallen nest.
If the evil spirits completely invaded every corner of the human world, none of those present could survive.
Whether for their own lives or for the human world, everyone here had one purpose.
To resist the evil spirits.
"Please everyone resist the evil spirits." Dao Wuxuan deeply bowed to everyone present.
In truth, this Dao Wuxuan was someone Mo Lin respected.
He was the only person whom Mo Lin felt had no selfish motives.
Dao Wuxuan led the crowd, starting to allocate teams to resist the evil spirits.
Zhong Yangxi's team was assigned to West County.
Apart from Zhong Yangxi's team, there were two other teams that were also going to West County.
In total, there were more than a hundred people.
No smiles could be seen on their faces, only vigilance.
All the way, a person named Qing Xu was narrating information about the evil spirits.
He said there were two kinds of evil spirits, the first being low-level evil spirits, the second being high-level evil spirits.
"Who is that?"
A man exclaimed.
Everyone saw a man standing in the middle of the road, seemingly waiting for someone.
The man had his arms folded across his chest, showing a smile none of them had.
Compared to the seriousness of Zhong Yangxi and the others, this man had a relaxed smile on his face.
This smile contrasted sharply with Zhong Yangxi and the others' expressions.
The man had stubble and wore a black coat.
"Immortal Cultivator, Gu Yan?" Qing Xu exclaimed, with an expression of awe deep in his eyes.
Upon hearing the term Immortal Cultivator, everyone present had expressions of reverence.
Even Zhong Yangxi showed a look of reverence.
Immortal Cultivator, the term itself represents a kind of strength.
Every Immortal Cultivator is a tremendously powerful existence.
They all possess an Immortal Technique.
"Immortal Cultivator Gu Yan? Are you the one known as the Human Immortal Gu Yan?" Zhong Yangxi asked upon hearing Gu Yan's name.
"Yes, that's correct."
Qing Xu said somewhat proudly, "Gu Yan's strength is definitely not weaker than Ling Qiaoqiao's."
Upon hearing Qing Xu's introduction, everyone showed even deeper reverence in their eyes.
Everyone knew that Ling Qiaoqiao had suppressed others on Wanliang Mountain yesterday, earning the title of Destined Person.
Gu Yan's strength not being inferior to Ling Qiaoqiao's meant he was definitely an extremely powerful existence.
"May I ask, are you here to deal with the evil spirits alongside us?" Zhong Yangxi politely inquired of Gu Yan.
"No."
Gu Yan pointed at Mo Lin coldly and said, "I'm here for him."
Gu Yan had already investigated Mo Lin's whereabouts, waiting here for Mo Lin.
"Are you friends with Master Mo?" Zhong Yangxi asked again.
"No, I'm here to kill him." Gu Yan didn't conceal his intention, readily admitting his purpose.
He came here specifically to kill Mo Lin.
Immediately, the polite demeanor on Zhong Yangxi's face vanished, replaced by murderous intent.
The change in attitude was rapid.
Upon hearing that Gu Yan was here to kill Mo Lin, everyone was shocked.
For a mere Red Dust Immortal like Mo Lin to offend an Immortal Cultivator.
There was no escape.
Qing Xu glanced at Mo Lin, then Gu Yan.
With a light sigh, in his eyes, Mo Lin was already a dead man.
