Fortunately, Wei Lin was disgusted by Wu Ji patriarch’s insatiable behavior.
“The reason why I attacked him just now was only that you have been my Master for many years. It doesn’t mean that you can order me around!” Wei Lin slowly lowered his raised hand and said coldly.
“What do you mean? Is it that your wings have hardened now? You don’t even listen to the words of this old patriarch…” Wu Ji patriarch was furious and shouted coldly.
“It seems you’re still unclear about the current situation!” Wei Lin immediately interrupted Wu Ji patriarch’s endless anger. A powerful aura burst out of his body and instantly enveloped Wu Ji patriarch.
“What do you want to do?” Wu Ji patriarch shivered at the chill and stammered.
However, before Wu Ji patriarch could finish his words, Wei Lin suddenly struck out with his right hand and instantly grabbed Wu Ji patriarch’s extended wrist. His spiritual energy gushed out, and he suddenly broke it in the opposite direction!
Crack!
The sound of bones cracking was particularly ear-piercing in the small stone house.
“Ah!”
A miserable scream came out of Wu Ji patriarch’s mouth. The intense pain made his body limp involuntarily, and he knelt in front of Wei Lin.
“Remember, I’m the true ruler here, and all of you are just prisoners. If there’s a next time, it won’t be as simple as just crippling your hand!” Wei Lin flung Wu Ji patriarch’s limp right hand away.
Maybe because he was angry or because of the intense pain from his broken wrist, Wu Ji patriarch grunted in a low voice. His face was red and twisted.
The pain from his wrist woke him up instantly. He understood the situation, but he didn’t dare to say anything.
After all, if Wei Lin wanted to kill him, it would be a piece of cake.
Wu Ji patriarch had lived for a long time, and he knew that a wise man would submit to the circumstances.
Wei Lin saw Wu Ji patriarch kneeling on one knee in front of him with his head lowered, not daring to speak, and revealed a refreshed expression.
“I was planning to capture all five of you and then deal with all of you, but now that the situation has changed, I’ll have to trouble the three of you for a favor!” Wei Lin strode toward the door.
“What favor?” Shangguan Fei was probably the calmest of the three. He had already walked out of the previous shadow.
“You’ll know when you get there.” Wei Lin walked out of the stone door without looking back. When he walked out, he waved to the dozens of strong men standing at the door.
The six strong men held a special silk net in their hands and walked towards Gu Mingzhou and the other two.
“What do you want?” Shangguan Fei said in a cold voice as he looked at the approaching burly man, especially the silk net in his hand.
However, Wei Lin didn’t pay any attention to him and directly ignored him. He turned around without looking back and disappeared from the sight of the three people.
“The three of you, don’t make things difficult for us!” six burly men came to Gu Mingzhou and the other two. One of them said in a whisper,
Shangguan Fei’s hands were clenched into tight fists before the brawny man could finish his words. He didn’t know if it was because of the humiliation he had suffered earlier or because of Wei Lin’s disregard.
His face was filled with anger, and his eyes flickered. He was obviously ready to attack.
“Island Master Shangguan, endure for a moment and everything will be fine. The enemy is stronger than us, so don’t be reckless!” Gu Mingzhou quickly stepped forward to grab Shangguan Fei’s right hand and said in a deep voice.
Gu Mingzhou was not worried about Shangguan Fei’s life or death. He was only worried Shangguan Fei would resist. If he angered Wei Lin and they were executed on the spot in this stone house, the situation would not be good.
After all, although Master Qin’s plan could be brought forward, the possibility of capturing Wei Lin in this narrow space wasn’t high.
If Wei Lin was allowed to escape, it would be extremely difficult for Gu Mingzhou to find a way to resolve the three lives tribulation and the Qing Emperor’s inheritance here with his power alone.
In fact, even with the help of Master Qin and Jing Wudao, Wei Lin might get there first.
This was something Gu Mingzhou didn’t want to see. It was also the main purpose of Master Qin’s plan, to beat him at his own game and reap the benefits without doing anything!
Therefore, he had no choice but to stop the angry Shangguan Fei at this time.
Shangguan Fei’s hands were clenched so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. His whole body was trembling, and he was obviously suppressing his temper.
After all, he was the master of the island, the leader of the freezing cold land.
Wherever he goes, he’ll be respected and worshipped.
He had never been bullied like this by a small fry that he had looked down on before.
But Shangguan Fei was Shangguan Fei after all. Not only did he know that a wise man submits to circumstances, but he also understood that a man should know when to yield and when not to.
Although he was furious, he did not lose his mind.
After hearing Gu Mingzhou’s words, the intention to resist was obviously gone. He turned around and looked at Wu Ji patriarch.
Wu Ji patriarch stood up shakily, his left hand gripping his right wrist tightly.
The intense pain caused his entire chubby face to contort.
Wu Ji patriarch didn’t answer. Instead, he staggered toward the two brawny men in front of him and raised his hands slightly.
“Wu Ji!” Shangguan Fei shouted loudly and glared at him.
“Island Master Shangguan, now that things have come to this, one day more is one day more to live. Resistance will only make you die faster!” Wu Ji patriarch didn’t look back. With a bitter smile, he reached out his hands to the two brawny men.
The two brawny men immediately understood what Wu Ji patriarch meant. They immediately went up and bound Wu Ji patriarch with a net. However, the two brawny men were quite kind. They only bound Wu Ji patriarch’s body and didn’t touch his arms.
The bounded Wu Ji patriarch looked like he was wearing a net jacket.
“AI!” Seeing this, Shangguan Fei let out a long sigh and also stretched out his hands, letting the strong man beside him restrain them.
In fact, he was just trying to find an excuse for himself.
However, the four strong men restraining Gu Mingzhou and Shangguan Fei were obviously not merciful.
Gu Mingzhou and Shangguan were almost completely tied up with a net.
Even their legs were not forgotten.
After the three of them were tied up, they were escorted out of the stone house by the six strong men. They walked through a quiet and curved path for about half an incense’s time.
They made a turn and entered a dilapidated old temple.
Just as Gu Mingzhou, Shangguan Fei, and Wu Ji patriarch were being escorted into the old temple, the bell rang three times!
Ding! Dong!
The bell rang melodiously and went straight to the nine heavens.
A low and deep voice of an ancient incantation sounded!
“The bluestone stands for a thousand years, protecting the people and ensuring their safety. I offer my sincere sacrifice and punish the world with my palm!”
A strange mumble.
It was like singing but also like chanting. The voice was gentle, and the tone was low.
It didn’t make people feel uncomfortable. Instead, it had a special magic that made the listener feel dazed and relaxed.
In the courtyard of this dilapidated old temple, a circular altar with a radius of ten meters was built. It was more than two meters high.
At the center of the altar was a pitch-black hole with a diameter of about three meters. It went deep into the ground, and its depth was unknown.
