Chapter 468: Obtaining the Opportunity

Outside the storeroom, Master Blue continuously chanted the incantation.

Activating the formation to devour Lin Yang's vital essence.

This standoff lasted until afternoon.

As he focused on confronting Lin Yang, Chu Guozhong's voice sounded.

"Mr. Lin, the ten pieces of antique jade you requested have been found."

Chu Guozhong, face beaming with joy, rushed into the house.

When he saw Master Blue sitting cross-legged alone on the ground.

Before Master Blue, the storeroom door that should have existed also disappeared.

He asked with a look of surprise.

"Master Blue, what happened here?"

"Why don't I see Mr. Lin?"

Master Blue, who had originally kept his eyes tightly shut, suddenly opened them and looked at Chu Guozhong.

At this moment, Master Blue's eyes were blood-red, like a beast choosing its prey.

This gaze frightened Chu Guozhong into continually stepping back.

Just as he was about to speak, Lin Yang's voice sounded.

"I thought you could hold out longer, but you gave up so quickly."

The door that had originally disappeared suddenly appeared.

Lin Yang, holding a long sword, walked out with a grin.

Seeing Lin Yang walk out unharmed, blood trickled from the corner of Master Blue's mouth.

He, feeling resentful, asked Lin Yang.

"What did you do to the Spirit Fetus?"

"Nothing much, I just made it finish what it was supposed to do ahead of time."

Master Blue looked at Lin Yang, and when he discovered a blue lotus flower on Lin Yang's forehead.

His face filled with unwillingness and anger.

"No! No! No!"

"How could I end up making a wedding dress for someone else!"

Lin Yang walked slowly up to him and pierced him with a single sword thrust.

"To harm others is ultimately to harm oneself."

Seeing Master Blue fall with an unwilling expression, Chu Guozhong turned deathly pale and asked.

"Lin... Mr. Lin, what on earth is going on."

Gazing at Master Blue's corpse, Lin Yang spoke softly.

"Everything that happened in this villa was arranged by him."

"To nurture the Spirit Fetus for him, to provide him with further advancement later."

"The raw stones you brought back from overseas in the Southeast region are all tainted with unclean things."

Hearing Lin Yang's words, Chu Guozhong turned deathly pale.

"How could this be? I had people examine the stones..."

"It's your people who have the problem."

"You can investigate thoroughly."

Chu Guozhong's face kept changing, and he eventually asked Lin Yang.

"How is my brother?"

Lin Yang turned his head to look inside the house, sighed, and said.

"You should properly prepare for the aftermath."

Chu Guozhong's eyes turned red.

Seeing him like that, Lin Yang patted his shoulder and walked outward.

Seeing Lin Yang about to leave, Chu Guozhong immediately composed himself.

"Mr. Lin, please stay."

Lin Yang turned his head, looking at Chu Guozhong in puzzlement.

"Is there anything else?"

Chu Guozhong hesitated for a moment, then said to Lin Yang.

"Master Blue still has a sect in the Southeast region."

"If news of his death were to spread to the Southeast region..."

Hearing Chu Guozhong's words, Lin Yang gave an indifferent smile and said.

"Let it spread then."

"If you're afraid of taking responsibility, you can just say the person was killed by me."

With Lin Yang's words, Chu Guozhong breathed a sigh of relief.

He shouted, "Quickly send Mr. Lin back to the hotel."

When Lin Yang returned to the hotel room, he saw Huo Yanfei wrapped in a blanket, with only her head exposed.

She looked pitifully at herself.

Seeing her like this, Lin Yang asked with a hint of doubt.

"What are you doing?"

Huo Yanfei pursed their lips and said to Lin Yang.

"I've only eaten a bucket of instant noodles so far, I'm hungry."

Hearing Huo Yanfei's words, Lin Yang also found it funny.

"Then why don't you go out to eat?"

Huo Yanfei bluntly said: "No money."

"Besides, earlier someone banged on the door outside, which scared me."

"No need to think, that's definitely someone from the Huo family."

"However, before leaving, Lin Yang set up a barrier."

"Those inside can go out, but those outside cannot enter unless their strength surpasses his."

He looked at the pitiful Huo Yanfei and said.

"Let's go, let's get something to eat."

Huo Yanfei jumped up immediately upon hearing that.

"Great!"

"You still want to take me to buy clothes; I washed this outfit in the washing machine and it had a problem."

Lin Yang heard that and was speechless.

"Clothes from wealthy families are indeed unusual; they can't be washed in a washing machine."

Hearing Lin Yang's words, Huo Yanfei pursed their lips and came to Lin Yang's side.

"Come on, otherwise this outfit would be uncomfortable to wear."

Looking at Huo Yanfei's pitiful appearance, Lin Yang sighed.

"Come on, let's go."

Seeing Lin Yang agree, Huo Yanfei beamed with happiness, grabbed Lin Yang and headed outside.

Coming downstairs, Huo Yanfei immediately hailed a taxi and went to the nearest mall.

Upon arriving at the mall, Huo Yanfei's eyes lit up.

"I know a few niche clothing brands..."

Lin Yang interrupted her.

"One outfit, only up to five hundred; over five hundred, you pay yourself!"

Huo Yanfei's eyes widened instantly upon hearing that.

"No way, what good clothes can you buy for five hundred?"

"Then let's not buy, just go eat."

Huo Yanfei, standing opposite Lin Yang, raised their head and stared straight at Lin Yang.

Only then did she notice that Lin Yang had an extra mark on his brow.

"Is that mark on your brow drawn on? It looks so weird."

Saying that, they still wanted to touch it.

But Lin Yang slapped their hand away with one slap.

"Buy or not, if not we're going to eat."

"Buy, buy, buy, just buy it."

She pursed her lips and casually walked into a women's clothing store to browse.

Finally, after wearing down Lin Yang's patience, they bought a red dress and a pair of high heels.

After she finished buying, she stood before Lin Yang, turned around once, and said.

"How is it? Does it look good?"

Seeing Huo Yanfei smiling and spinning in front of him, Lin Yang momentarily lost himself.

At this moment, Huo Yanfei looked a bit more mature than before, and their demeanor was also different.

At this moment, she resembled Huo Shui Xian too much.

Lin Yang had the feeling that the person standing before him was Huo Shui Xian.

"Hey hey hey, why aren't you speaking?"

"Could it be that you've been captivated by this beautiful girl's looks?"

Lin Yang looked at her and said.

"What's your surname?"

Huo Yanfei's heart tightened, and they looked at Lin Yang somewhat nervously.

"I... my surname is Du; I just told you last night, did you forget?"

Before Lin Yang could speak, Huo Yanfei hurriedly said.

"I'm going to the restroom."

Then they quickly ran off.

After arriving at the restroom, Huo Yanfei exhaled and patted their chest.

"I was scared to death; could it be that I was recognized?"

After washing their face, Huo Yanfei walked out of the restroom.

"Yanfei? Is that really you?"

A young person around twenty looked at Huo Yanfei with surprise.

Seeing the young person before them, Huo Yanfei panicked momentarily, then couldn't help but feel disdain.

"This guy must be born in the Year of the Dog; you run into him everywhere!"

But constrained by his identity, he still squeezed out a smile.

"Sorry, I have an appointment, I'll go ahead first."
