Upon entering the room, the man who had been driving the horse brought over a chair and carelessly threw it in front of Lin Long, commanding in English, "Sit!"
Although Lin Long couldn't understand English, he understood what the man ant!
However, the man's attitude made Lin Long's face darken instantly. Even though he had been defeated by Lin Fan and unwillingly beca the masked young master's follower, he was still a young master in Huaxia's Martial World; when had he ever suffered such humiliation!
Yet, just as Lin Long was about to get angry, he saw the man turn and leave the room, leaving Lin Long alone as the cold wind howled and the atmosphere grew increasingly heavy!
This scene also made Lin Long extrely cautious, not daring to let his guard down in the slightest. He was tense, sensing the surroundings, not daring to relax for a mont!
After a long while, a crisp "snap" suddenly echoed!
Lin Long's expression imdiately turned grave, his gaze hurriedly shifting to the source of the sound, only to see a figure erging from the darkness!
The figure was very tall, at least 1.9 ters high. Although only a shadow, it was clear he was very strong!
Lin Long held his breath and focused, sensing a trace of dangerous aura!
Tap, tap, tap~
Soon, footsteps sounded, and the figure walked toward Lin Long!
"Who are you?" Lin Long imdiately stood up and shouted!
Unfortunately, the figure didn't respond, continuing to approach Lin Long, each step on the ground sounding heavy, indicating imnse strength!
The figure's silence made Lin Long even more serious, hands tightly clenched into fists, ready to respond at any mont!
Soon enough, the figure closed in on Lin Long, and with the help of faint light, Lin Long realized it was a burly man!
He had a head of short black hair, a gaunt face, but broad shoulders. He was dressed in a tailcoat that stretched across his muscular build, exuding a violent strength, making a gentlemanly image impossible!
"Who are you?" Lin Long asked with a frown.
"Mr. Lin, please don't be nervous!" The burly man spoke in broken Huaxia language.
"Cut the crap, who are you?" Lin Long continued to demand.
"Hehe! Mr. Lin can call
Mr. Clint," the burly man said.
"Clint? I don't care what you're called. Was it you who had the young master send
to et you?" Lin Long asked.
"Of course!" Clint nodded with a smile.
Then, Lin Long glanced around and asked, "Where is this place?"
"Of course, it is my castle. How is it? Is Mr. Lin satisfied?" Clint spread his arms with a proud look.
However, Lin Long scoffed at these European buildings, utterly unimpressed!
"Just say what you want. My ti is very precious!" Lin Long coldly demanded.
"Hehe! I won't take much of Mr. Lin's ti. I invited you here in the hope that Mr. Lin can do
a favor!" Clint smiled before stepping toward Lin Long!
However, as Clint approached, Lin Long suddenly caught a strong scent of blood on him, as if Clint had just walked out of a blood pool, the sll was pungent!
Very quickly, as Clint pulled a scroll from himself, Lin Long's eyes widened!
The scroll had a sense of ancient ti about it, but only half was present. Still, Lin Long was no stranger to this scroll. When the masked young master tasked him with obtaining the scroll from Lin Fan, he had been given a photo, identical to the scroll in Clint's hand!
"How do you have this?" Lin Long was astonished!
Upon seeing Lin Long's expression, Clint displayed an excited smile and laughed, "It seems Mr. Lin is very familiar with this scroll. So, Mr. Lin, please tell
what is written on it!"
As he spoke, Clint extended the scroll toward Lin Long with a composed smile, not worried about Lin Long stealing the scroll!
From what Lin Long knew, he understood the scroll's importance. It was an heirloom of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect's Supre Ancestor, likely containing extrely rare information. Lin Long had heard from his grandfather that it contained secrets about becoming the strongest!
Lin Long accepted the scroll with trembling hands, his eyes growing intensely fervent as he opened it, only to see it filled with dense, unknown characters!
However, what made Lin Long furrow his brow was that he couldn't recognize any of the characters on this scroll, all were so rare scripts.
Seeing Lin Long's expression, Clint raised his thick eyebrows and asked, "Doesn't Mr. Lin recognize them?"
"The scripts on this aren't recorded in any Huaxia ancient texts. They should be from so ancient tribe. However, I don't know any scripts from these ancient tribes. I can only seek answers from so reclusive elders in Huaxia's Martial World. However, now many of the older generation in Huaxia have died or gone senile, and there are hardly any left. Even if any are still alive, whether they can read these characters is uncertain!"
Lin Long explained carefully.
After hearing this, Clint pondered for a mont, then extended his hand to Lin Long, saying, "Since Mr. Lin cannot provide answers, please return the scroll to . I will arrange for soone to send you away. Of course, I, Clint, won't let Mr. Lin go without so rewards!"
"Rewards?"
Upon hearing these words, Lin Long chuckled dismissively!
What reward could be more valuable than this scroll?
Lin Long suddenly took two steps back, secured the scroll at his waist, and coldly smiled at Clint, saying, "Mr. Clint, this scroll is a relic of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, and as a mber of the sect, it should be handed to ! As for whether this scroll was stolen from our sect, out of respect for the young master, I won't pursue that matter with you!"
"Hmm?"
With these words, Clint's expression darkened instantly!
"But I've heard, Mr. Lin Long, that you're no longer a mber of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect!" Clint replied coldly.
"Hmph! That's none of your business. Anyway, this scroll belongs to Huaxia, not to the likes of you foreigners. If Mr. Clint has nothing else, then I'll take my leave. You can have your people see
out. As for the reward, it's unnecessary!"
Lin Long arrogantly sneered!
