Chapter 245 Young Master Zhang, your suggestion is very good. Please don’t mention it again next time!

"Boy, you have some abilities. No wonder you dare to speak rudely!" Yu Canghai used the Qingcheng Heart Method, tapped the roof with his foot, and drew his sword like an arrow from a bow and stabbed towards Cheng Long.

This sword is filled with murderous intent.

Any top fighter in the world would have to be extremely alert to deal with it.

However, Cheng Long always maintained a lazy posture. Yu Canghai's sword, which was as fast as a flying dragon, fell into his eyes like a slow motion shot that was abused in the era of traffic, making people fall asleep.

He gently stretched out two fingers and firmly grasped the sharp blade, as if he was stroking the strings of a musical instrument. The blade danced between his fingers but could not hurt him at all.

"Your sword is too slow!"

Cheng Long twisted his two fingers and broke off a piece of the sword tip.

With a flick of his hand, the broken blade pierced through Yu Canghai's forehead like a meteor, leaving a streak of blood.

Master Yu is dead!
"how come?"

"run……"

Luo Renjie, standing on the roof, had no time to think. At this moment, the only thought in his mind was to escape from this place and stay away from Cheng Long.

The leader can't even defeat a single move from the enemy, if he doesn't run away he'll be dead!
If an ordinary Qingcheng disciple was so sensible, Cheng Long might not bother to take action and would just run away.

The Four Beauties of Qingcheng, who committed many evil deeds and used vicious means, were not so lucky.

Before Luo Renjie could run a few steps, Cheng Long, who followed behind, beheaded him with a single blow.

At this point, the Lin family crisis came to an end.

If the Lin family wants to get rid of the trouble completely, they have to find a big backer. The Luoyang Jindao Sect cannot protect them.

However, this is something that Lin Zhennan and his wife need to consider, and Cheng Long can't care so much.

……

That night.

"Young Master Cheng, this is a small gift we prepared for you. Please accept it." Lin Zhennan and his wife brought a tray with ten gold ingots and over a hundred taels of silver ingots on it.

"Forget about the gold ingots, but I'll take these silver ingots."

Cheng Long waved his hand, and the hundred taels of silver ingots in the tray disappeared without a trace in an instant.

When the storage bar had only three or five slots, he seized the loophole in the system and equipped himself with a large amount of daily necessities and fuel. Now it has been expanded to twenty slots, so he can put anything he wants.

In order to facilitate the collection of some items, he also left a few grids in reserve.

"Young Master Cheng, excuse me, how did you manage to take something out of thin air?"

This was not the first time that Lin Zhennan had seen this magical scene, but every time he saw something disappear in front of his eyes or appear out of thin air, he would feel envious.

If he had this ability, it would be much easier for him to travel the world in the future.

"Senior Lin, my background is rather mysterious, and many things are inconvenient to reveal. Please forgive me."

"I took the liberty."

Lin Zhennan smiled awkwardly.

Madam Lin said at the right time: "Young Master Cheng, you helped us destroy the Qingcheng Sect, do you need us to spread the news?"

"No need to do that, just say you killed him, this way your Lin family can live in peace for a while..." At this point, Cheng Long saw the couple's puzzled expressions and said frankly: "Senior Lin, you don't really think that Yu Canghai's revenge is just Pingzhi's mistaken killing of his son, right?"

"Is not it?"

"Of course not, they came here to snatch the "Sword Manual of Exorcism"."

"This……"

Lin Zhennan and his wife looked at each other.

Cheng Long put his hands behind his back and said sternly, "If you trust me, just do as I say. Besides you, no one saw me take action. If you spread the word, it will discourage many villains, but it may also attract more powerful enemies."

"Young Master Cheng, I know what to do." Lin Zhennan nodded seriously.

"Senior Lin, have you ever thought about why, although both of them practiced the Sword Manual of Exorcism, Master Yuantu was able to gain such a great reputation, while you have to guard against villains and worry about your family's unique skills being stolen?"

Cheng Long asked a heart-wrenching question.

Lin Zhennan still has some idea of ​​his own strength.

Otherwise, people would not often mention the phrase "福将先 威保障代理" (blessing comes first, power comes second).

Without authority, one cannot be strong, so peace is naturally the most important thing.

When he was a child, he always thought that he was not talented enough and had not mastered the Sword of Exorcism. It was not until his father Lin Zhongxiong revealed the secret of the family's unique skills before his death that he realized that in order to master the Sword of Exorcism, he needed to castrate himself.

This secret.

He kept it in his heart and never told anyone.

"Young Master Cheng, do you know something?" Lin Zhennan frowned and looked straight at Cheng Long.

Cheng Long explained with a smile: "The Sword Manual of Exorcism was derived from the Sunflower Manual, and the Sunflower Manual was circulated in the palace. The author was a eunuch of the previous dynasty. How can one practice this martial art if it is not perfect?" "..."

Lin Zhennan was stunned.

This kid actually knows it so clearly. Could it be that the Cheng family's unique skills also include the Sword Manual of Exorcism or the Book of the Sunflower?
It shouldn’t be!

Young Master Cheng doesn't look like a eunuch!
"Master, to practice the Sword Manual of Exorcism, one must castrate oneself? Is that true?"

Mrs. Lin was so shocked that the tray in her hand dropped, and the ten ingots of gold were scattered all over the floor.

"Yes, this is why I can't practice peace."

Lin Zhennan admitted it very frankly.

He had to admit it. He couldn't lie and say that his benefactor had fabricated the secret and severely injured the Lin family, right?

If you really do this, how can you hold your head up high in the future?

“…No wonder!”

Mrs. Lin finally understood why her husband's family was getting weaker with each generation. She originally thought that her husband and son were not talented, but she didn't expect that it was the Lin family's unique skill that required castration of one's own body in order to practice it.

It's too ridiculous.

"Senior Lin, I will be leaving early tomorrow morning. Before I leave, I will give you a small suggestion. Back then, Lord Yuantu made a great name for himself with the Sword Manual of Exorcism. There must be many people who coveted your Lin family's unique skills. Now that Pingzhi has grown up and has the ability to carry on the family line, you should also consider being ruthless and practicing the Sword Manual of Exorcism!"

Cheng Long instigated seriously: "After all, your luck can't always be so good that you can meet a kind-hearted person like me to help you when your family is in trouble."

"..." Lin Zhennan twitched his lips, wanting to curse but being too embarrassed to speak.

"..." Madam Lin looked at Cheng Long with a look of resentment in an instant. You rascal, you actually instigated the master to castrate himself. Won't I be a widow from now on?
If Old Lin really wants to castrate himself, I will seek compensation from you!

"Senior Lin, if you don't want Madam Lin to be a widow, there is actually another way to save your Lin family. That is to adopt a few orphans who are in financial difficulties and help them and their families survive. Then, take a few of them as your adopted sons, let them castrate themselves and practice swordsmanship, and protect the Lin family."

"Anyway, the Sword Manual of Exorcism is a quick way to success. If you practice it for a year or two, you will be able to achieve something, and maybe even become a first-class master."

Cheng Long had no interest in the Manual of the Sword of Exorcism, but was very interested in instigating others to castrate themselves to practice sword skills. If Lin Pingzhi was not the only son of the Lin family, he would even secretly instigate Pingzhi to castrate himself.

Anyway, I just want to watch the fun.

"Young Master Cheng, your suggestion is very good. Don't mention it again next time."

Lin Zhennan's face darkened as he turned and left with his wife.

He had figured out what was going on. Young Master Cheng was just here to watch the fun and instigate himself or others to castrate themselves.

The lady still had her charm, and he was not so old that he had no interest in beauty, so he simply could not bear to do so.

As for adopting a son and letting him castrate himself to practice sword, this kind of thing... is actually not very safe. Providing him with food and clothing at the beginning may make the other party grateful.

But over time, it is hard not to harbor hatred.

I can't bear to do it at my age, so how can others, who are so young, be so cruel as to castrate themselves?

Unless there is some deep hatred!
Wait... a deep hatred?
Thinking of this, Lin Zhennan's eyes suddenly lit up. Children from ordinary families might harbor resentment, but if they were people of good character and had a deep hatred, this might really work.

So when he returned to the bedroom, Lin Zhennan couldn't wait to discuss it with his wife.

Mrs. Lin thought for a moment and replied, "Master, the Japanese pirates are rampant in the coastal areas of Fuzhou. There are countless young people who hate to annihilate their clans and villages. If we can adopt a group of them, let them castrate themselves and practice swordsmanship, and give them powerful military power to hunt down the pirates, these people will definitely be grateful to us. I think this plan is feasible."

"Okay, I'll send someone to inquire tomorrow..." Lin Zhennan nodded.

After a moment of silence, he felt that it was not safe, and hesitantly said: "Madam, how about I castrate myself? Otherwise, if any of the adopted sons turns out to be a traitor, our Lin family will be finished."

"Master, if you are worried, then don't accept it."

"But if I don't accept it, with my current strength, I will be defeated if I encounter a powerful martial arts master, and the Lin family will also be in danger!"

Mrs. Lin is now so angry with Cheng Long that her teeth are itching. Why is she giving him any advice for no reason? He should just have a good night's sleep and leave tomorrow morning. It would be good for you, me and everyone else. But now her man is worried and is thinking of castrating himself to practice sword skills.

"Master, Yu Canghai is dead. If the news gets out, it will surely shock many people. The Lin family will still be very safe in the short term. Think about these things slowly, don't rush."

Mrs. Lin had to use a delaying tactic. Even if her husband finally chose to castrate himself, she could still live a happy life as a normal woman for a while.

"That's right, then let's first arrange for someone to be our adopted son..."

Lin Zhennan had nothing to worry about after adopting a son who castrated himself to practice swordsmanship. After all, the probability of his son rebelling was much lower than encountering a master who could steal the Sword Manual of Exorcism.

What he was struggling with was actually himself, whether or not he should castrate himself to practice sword skills.

Cheng Long, who was resting on the bed, saw this scene with his spiritual sense and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth.

"It seems that Mrs. Lin will be a widow sooner or later! I am so bad, haha..." Cheng Long laughed happily. Having fun was one of the reasons, but his main purpose was to help the Lin family.

Only if Lin Zhennan mastered the Sword Manual of Exorcism, the tragedy that happened to Lin Pingzhi would not have happened.

As for the adopted sons of the Lin family who were implicated?
They were orphans who had been robbed by Japanese pirates and could not survive. They carried a deep hatred and asked these people to practice the Sword Manual of Exorcism. He could gain merit every time he killed a Japanese pirate.

I wish Lin Zhennan could adopt a few more sons!
"Japanese pirates..."

Thinking of the description of the Japanese pirates in history books, Cheng Long, who was just having fun, suddenly had a ray of murderous intent in his eyes, and the spiritual consciousness he released became extremely cold and bone-chilling.
