Chapter 407 - Luoyang New Owner

Under the hazy moonlight, countless Night Walkers were moving within the Luoyang City. Sometimes they would fly over walls, and sometimes they would hide in the shadows, using extremely strange movement techniques to carry out one mission after another.

At this moment, regardless of which power it was, every step of the way they took was to find out where the commotion was coming from. They were originally just probing to see if there was anything amiss, but suddenly, the Nighttimers began to stir.

A piece of news quickly spread to the ears of the chieftain s of every family.

Lin Mansion's Patriarch died on the streets outside her own residence. Her body and head were separated, and her death looked extremely miserable.

This matter was like a plague that spread throughout the entire Luoyang City, causing every family to become nervous, because the Lin Family was also at the middle to upper echelons. As the master of a family, it was outrageous that he would die in such a miserable manner.

Everyone was guessing, perhaps the Rankers hidden in the Luoyang City were attacking from the shadows.

As everyone was discussing, a piece of news that had been buried in the past spread out. It was that not long ago, a person died in a similar way on that street, and thus, everyone understood that this was a matter of revenge.

But they still didn't understand, that the person who died was just a spy, there was actually such a powerful family in Luoyang City, that would directly kill the Patriarch of the Lin Family because of the death of a servant.

Most importantly, the various clans had been secretly scheming for many years. They had investigated each other's strength and were completely unaware of the existence of such a terrifying clan. All of a sudden, everyone's hearts started to feel a little uneasy.

However, only Wang Yuanba and the Old Man Green Bamboo were clear of what was going on.

"Old Mr, this thing... It couldn't be the Sect Leader Ling who did this, right? " Wang Yuanba looked at the Old Man Green Bamboo who was currently resting with his eyes closed, and asked.

Old Man Green Bamboo raised his eyebrows, still kept his eyes closed, and said: "What nonsense are you talking about? In the entire Luoyang City, who else has the ability to ignore Lin Mansion's armies and attack the Yellow Dragon."

"Looks like it's true." Wang Yuanba was already prepared in his heart, but he still felt it to be inconceivable.

Even if the Wang Family were to go against the Lin Mansion, it would take a lot of effort and all of her strength, and Ling Xiao was just one person.

"Only Sect Leader Ling could do this, but …" Old Man Green Bamboo finally opened his eyes, and said with a stern expression: "Did you make your move out of revenge? Or perhaps, this was part of his plan? "

After thinking for a long time, the Old Man Green Bamboo shook his head and muttered to himself. "This person is too terrifying.

Hearing that, Wang Yuanba nodded his head repeatedly in agreement: "That's right, I feel that with Sect Leader Ling's strength, he's completely capable of taking down Luoyang City by himself."

"But Sect Leader Ling still wants us to attack together. It seems that he has given us face." The Old Man Green Bamboo sighed.

Wang Yuanba did not reply, but in his heart, he was already very excited, because right now, he had chosen the one that would definitely win.

Suddenly, a servant hurriedly ran over.

"Patriarch, there's movement inside the city." The servant bowed to Wang Yuanba, then he lifted up the superstition in his hands.

Wang Yuanba turned out to be a superstitious person, he waved his hand, signalling the servants to leave.

Then, Wang Yuanba turned on the superstition and watched it together with the Old Man Green Bamboo.

"The families that were initially hesitating were now closing in on us. Quite a few families had also sent secret messages saying that they wanted to join us." Wang Yuanba said with a joyous expression.

Old Man Green Bamboo nodded and said, "Looks like the death of the Lin Family's Patriarch is a strong deterrence to them."

"Old Mr, do we have to move now? The people gathering are getting more and more, and I'm afraid as time passes, the situation will get more and more chaotic." Wang Yuanba said.

Old Man Green Bamboo muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded and said, "Mn, let's take action now. Although there is still no news from Sect Leader Ling, he is definitely prepared to take action in secret."

"Maybe the Sect Leader Ling has already made his move." By the side, Linghu Chong suddenly said.

After attracting the attention of the Old Man Green Bamboo and Wang Yuanba, the three of them nodded their heads and set off.

Following Wang Yuanba's command, the battle under the curtain of night finally began.

In that moment, clear sounds of collisions could be heard everywhere in the quiet Luoyang City. It was the sound of sharp, cold weapons clashing and rubbing against each other.

Ling Xiao stood on top of the city gate of the Luoyang City, leaned against the city wall, and leisurely watched the battle under the night sky.

No wonder why Hu Chong was the one who understood Ling Xiao the most. His guess was right, Ling Xiao had already made a move.

Before long, the enemies of the Wang Family would realize that their chieftain was either killed or knocked unconscious.

Capturing a thief first and then the emperor, this was Ling Xiao's style of doing things.

Ling Xiao's original intention was to control the Luoyang City, not to kill. Even if the Wang Family was used as a shield, if she were to go overboard, it would definitely cause a huge uproar in the Jianghu, and cause a lot of dissatisfaction.

Walking in the Jianghu, reputation was still very important.

Ling Xiao also wished to have a Puppet with a good reputation, only then would it become even more legitimate.

Just as the battle within Luoyang City was getting more and more intense, a person ran over to Ling Xiao's side.

If one were to ask why Ling Xiao did not have any guards around, it would be because Ling Xiao had knocked them out.

"Sect Leader Ling, just as you said, many families have begun to surrender." He was Shop Waiter from the inn.

After Ling Xiao heard this, he faintly smiled and said, "Mn, to think that you would have arrived earlier than what I had expected."

"Do you want to go?" Shop Waiter asked.

Ling Xiao stood up and stretched, then said indifferently: "I don't think Wang Yuanba can think of why he would win so quickly, I think I'll go over, don't go up Wang Yuanba, kill more people."

"Then I …"

"You can go back. Remember to hide on the way. You must ensure your safety. I am not willing to lose a brother for no reason." Ling Xiao looked at Shop Waiter and laughed.

Shop Waiter was moved and agreed.

After the Shop Waiter left, Ling Xiao leaped up, activated lightness exercise, and quickly left the city wall.

It took Ling Xiao an entire night of action to completely grasp the situation in front of him. Right now, it was already close to the end, so he naturally had to go and congratulate the new owner of the Luoyang City.

Of course, this was also designated by Ling Xiao.

Because the Luoyang City truly belonged to Ling Xiao.

Walking on the road, Ling Xiao could still hear the clashing of weapons, but they were getting weaker and weaker, until they finally disappeared. The entire Luoyang City had regained its tranquility, the only difference was the faint smell of blood in the air, proof of what the city had experienced not long ago.
