A moment later, Chen Yuan's figure flashed and gracefully landed back in the center of the courtyard in front of the Buddhist hall.
At the entrance of the Buddhist hall, Lin Zhennan still held the red kasaya in his hands, his face expressionless, showing only a deep-seated shock and fear.
"Old Lin."
Chen Yuan walked up to him, waved his hand in front of his somewhat unfocused eyes, and raised his voice slightly.
"I'm back to reality, it's done."
"By the way, are you sure you can handle the remaining loose ends yourself?"
Lin Zhennan trembled violently, as if waking from a dream, and looked at Chen Yuan with eyes full of awe and fear.
He nodded repeatedly.
"I can handle it, I can handle it."
"Many thanks, Master Chen... for saving my life and avenging me!"
He was rambling incoherently and no longer knew how to express himself.
Remembering what he was holding, he hurriedly stepped forward, held the red cassock robe high with both hands, and handed it to Chen Yuan.
"Master Chen, this is your Evil-Repelling Sword Manual."
Chen Yuan grinned and patted him on the shoulder.
"Old Lin, you've broadened your path."
Chen Yuan casually took it.
The next moment, the red cassock vanished without a trace in his hands as if by magic.
Lin Zhennan's eyes widened instantly.
What...what kind of magical arts and sorcery is this?!
"The matter here is settled."
Chen Yuan casually cupped his hands in greeting to him.
"I should get going and head to my next destination."
"Old Lin, remember to spread the word for me. Tell them there's a bodyguard surnamed Chen who's pretty good at martial arts and takes on all sorts of difficult and complicated cases."
He paused, as if suddenly remembering something, and added with a mischievous smile.
"By the way, remember to promote this: that Evil-Repelling Sword Manual is now in my possession, Chen Yuan's."
"Let those cats and dogs who still have designs on it come to me."
After saying that, he turned around gracefully and walked towards the gate of the old house.
He had only taken a couple of steps when he suddenly stopped, a slightly embarrassed look on his face. He turned around and said to Lin Zhennan, who was still in a daze.
"Ahem... Well, Lao Lin, there's something else..."
"Look, I left in a hurry, so I didn't bring enough gold and silver with me..."
"Could you... possibly lend me some more travel expenses?"
I take back what I said; money is still useful to him.
After all, the only thing in his personal space was food.
Behind the eaves of a two-story wooden building a hundred feet away from the Lin family's old house, an old man and a young man were lying almost pressed against the tiles.
The young woman was a girl dressed in coarse blue cloth, whose face had been disguised to make her somewhat ugly.
The older one was a man with gray hair and a simple, farmer-like face.
It was Lao Denuo, the second disciple of the Huashan Sect, and his junior sister Yue Lingshan who were ordered by Yue Buqun to go down the mountain to investigate and act according to the situation.
"Second Senior Brother, did the Lin family father and son really go in? Did Yu Canghai also lead his men in?"
Yue Lingshan tried her best to lower her voice, but it still revealed an undisguised tension and a hint of anxiety caused by guilt.
"It's absolutely true, I saw them go in one after another with my own eyes."
Laudenau squinted, staring intently at the unusually quiet Lin family mansion in the distance, his voice low and serious.
"Judging by this situation, the Lin family father and son are likely doomed this time, with no chance of survival..."
Yue Lingshan unconsciously bit her lower lip, a complex and unfathomable look flashing in her eyes.
Lin Pingzhi got into a conflict with Yu Renyan because she pretended to be harassed, and eventually accidentally killed Yu Renyan, which led to the tragedy of the massacre of the whole family.
Although her father and senior brother both said that the Qingcheng Sect had planned this all along, she still felt a deep sense of guilt.
Just then, Laudenau gasped sharply, his body tensed abruptly, and his voice carried a look of utter astonishment, as if he had seen a ghost.
"Junior Sister, look!"
"Was that Lin Pingzhi who came out of the old house?!"
In the distance, towards the Lin family's old residence, a familiar figure flashed past like a ghost along the courtyard and walls at a speed beyond their comprehension.
The Qingcheng Sect disciples responsible for guarding the perimeter fell to the ground one after another without a sound, like straws cut by a sickle.
The whole process was swift and efficient, without making much noise or showing any signs of resistance!
Yue Lingshan quickly focused her gaze, and when she saw the figure's face and movements clearly, she subconsciously covered her mouth with her hand to prevent herself from screaming. Her eyes were filled with extreme shock and bewilderment.
"Is...it really him?!"
"But...but when did he acquire such terrifying martial arts skills?!"
This completely overturned her perception of the somewhat spoiled and mediocre young head of the Fuwei Escort Agency!
What made the two of them even more uneasy was the mention of "Lin Pingzhi," who had just swiftly eliminated all the peripheral enemies.
As he turned to leave, he unexpectedly glanced casually at their extremely well-hidden hiding place!
Although they were hundreds of feet apart, Laudenau felt that the gaze pierced through the distance and obstacles, landing precisely on him, instantly making the hairs on his body stand on end.
Almost instinctively, he suddenly reached out his rough hand and pressed it onto Yue Lingshan's shoulder, forcibly pulling her down to bend her body even lower, his heart pounding wildly in his chest.
"Second Brother, what are you doing?!"
Yue Lingshan was somewhat displeased by his sudden action and scolded him in a low voice.
"Don't make a sound!"
Laudenau's voice was urgent, filled with unprecedented tension.
"He...he thinks he...saw us just now!"
"No...that can't be, right?"
Yue Lingshan's face turned pale instantly, and her voice trembled slightly.
"We hid so well, and we were so far away..."
"Better safe than sorry!"
Laudenau said firmly, cold sweat already beading on his forehead.
"This person is definitely suspicious!"
"That movement technique, that attack, it wasn't the Lin Family Evil-Repelling Sword Technique at all!"
"It's incredibly strange, and...it's terrifyingly strong!"
Yue Lingshan's face turned even paler, and her voice was filled with fear.
"So... what do we do now?"
Laudenau cautiously peeked out from the edge of the tile, revealing half of his head and one eye, and looked warily toward the old house.
The area was completely empty; the terrifying "Lin Pingzhi" had vanished without a trace.
He abruptly pulled his head back, made a decisive decision, and his voice carried an undeniable urgency.
"Go, get out of here right now!"
"This place is extremely dangerous, beyond our ability to fathom!"
"We must immediately report everything that happened here, word for word, to our master for a decision!"
A month later.
A familiar voice rang in Chen Yuan's ears.
[The host has rewritten Lin Pingzhi's fate and successfully obtained 100 Life Sources]

He smiled.
It seems that Lin Zhennan has done a pretty good job of promoting this.
