Chapter 292: Crossing Maple Mount
Translator: Flying Lines
Proofread by Claire.KK
People around Lin Xun felt relaxed a lot after Lin Xun brought down his momentum. But they still kept fear in their eyes since they had regarded Lin Xun as a dangerous person before.
Lin Xun was helpless for this. Fortunately, a spiritual shuttle came soon, so it was time to go.
After paying a piece of silver coin, Lin Xun got into the spiritual shuttle with a group of people and rushed to the sky with a roar.
In the spacious shuttle, it was empty around Lin Xun’s seat. No one wanted to get close to him. Lin Xun was glad to this situation because he could take this opportunity to treat himself to the spoils of battles these days.
In the seven days after he left the Plain of Blood Wolf, he encountered three more ambushes.
The first time happened in a jungle. There were 40 enemies in total. All of them were good at jungle assassination and equipped with Wooden Crossbow with Thorns. They were distributed in different areas of the jungle, moving like ghosts. It was extremely difficult for others to lock on and attack them.
However, Lin Xun, who had got through the Bloodthirsty Camp, adopted the jungle attack tactics fully. So he fought back with the same way of attacking. At last, only thirteen enemies escaped and the rest thwenty-seven of them were killed.
After this war, Lin Xun was hurt seven times and he got dozens of different kinds of spiritual pills, sixteen Wooden Crossbow with Thorns and twenty-three kinds of spiritual tools.
The second ambush took place in the swamp. There came fifty enemies who were good at Spiritual Tattoo. They tried to kill Lin Xun in one fell swoop with the help of a Spiritual Formation that had already been set up.
Obviously, their plan would be failed from the very beginning!
If Shue Jin and Chu Feng knew that someone dared to use the spiritual formation to fight with Lin Xun, they would definitely laugh like a drain. As long as people knew the details of Lin Xun, they would never do such stupid thing!
As a result, Lin Xun easily shifted the control of the spiritual formation and wiped out all the enemies in the spiritual formation at one stroke!
Lin Xun didn’t get any hurt in this battle and easily obtained some amazing spiritual materials.
The third ambush took place on a lake. They mobilized a large number of ships to encircle Lin Xun on the water.
Enemies learned from several battles ahead and were well prepared this time. They not only mobilized ships, but also sent 200 elite practitioners and a large number of combat weapons.
However, to the enemy’s surprise, Lin Xun slipped away from the bottom of the lake by virtue of Amrita Saint Peal in his Sea of Consciousness. When the enemy noticed this, they had lost Lin Xun’s track on the lake.
It was so embarrassing to end an well prepared ambush like this!
Even Lin Xun could not help raise his lips happily when he thought of this incident. This was luck. When someone was lucky, even God would help him. When someone was unlucky, he would work hard in vain.
Inevitably, after these ambushes, the enemy would be alert. When they went out again, the force they sent out would be absolutely much more powerful.
Lin Xun knew this for sure and he was ready for new battles.
After counting all the loot, Lin Xun sighed with emotion that killing people and looting was undoubtedly the most effective way to make fortune in the world.
The total value he gained along the way was at least more than 10,000 gold coins!
“Big brother, your clothes are dirty with blood. My mother asks me to send you this suit.”
All of a sudden, a young and tender voice sounded. Lin Xun was waked up by the voice from his ponder. Looking up, he saw that a three-or-four-year-old girl came tottering with a pile of clothes not far from his seat.
The little girl had a pair of lovely eyes, wearing a braid.
Lin Xun was surprised. He glanced around and saw a simple dressed woman looking at him with a smile.
This made Lin Xun feel warm in his heart. He had never had this feeling for a long time that he could be well cared by a stranger when they met each other by chance.
“Thank you, young sister.”
Lin Xun squatted down, smiled and rubbed the little girl’s head gently, then took the suit.
He wasn’t lack of clothes, but the gift was such kindness and tenderness to him, so he didn’t want to refuse.
“Goodbye, big brother.”
The little girl cleverly waved goodbye and turned back to her mother.
Lin Xun smiled and greeted the woman with a nod. He took the clothes carefully, thinking that he needed to buy some gifts for the mother and daughter after the spiritual shuttle crossing the Maple Mount to express his gratitude and kindness back.
“Big brother, can I have a chat with you?”
Suddenly, the little girl came back and looked at Lin Xun expectantly with her big black eyes.
“Sure.”
Lin Xun immediately smiled and put the little girl in his lap, “What do you want to talk about with me, young sister?”
“Big brother, I feel that they are afraid of you. Is it because you are fierce?”
“So... do you think I’m fierce?”
“No. I think you are very beautiful, like the porcelain doll in my house.”
“Beautiful? Aha, young sister, beautiful is not a word for a boy. ”
Both Lin Xun and the young girl were happy with this childish conversation.
Gradually, some passengers in the distance felt relaxed a lot and their attitude towards Lin Xun was no longer the same as before.
All of this changes happened because the goodwill released from a child. This might be the power of warmth and kindness.
...
In an old mansion of Forbidden City
Xu Qianjing was sitting at the table, analyzing information. His clear eyes were full of cool and wise color.
On the table, there was detailed information sent these days. Some information were analyzed and summarized by Xu Qianjing himself.
Finally, Xu Qianjing came to three accurate conclusions.
Lin Xun, who came from Bloodthirsty Camp, had a very skillful and sophisticated means of raids and counter raids as well as a terrible insight into the danger.
This could be seen from the jungle ambush a few days ago. This was a factor that had been mentioned in the previous intelligence but not valued.
No one thought that Lin Xun could play so well and perfectly with the means he learned in Bloodthirsty Camp.
Xu Qianjing didn’t expect this either.
This led to the final failure of jungle ambush a few days ago.
However, this did not affect Xu Qianjing’s mood. A failure resulted in a further understanding of the target, which was useful for his next plan.
What really surprised Xu Qianjing was the battle in the swamp!
At that time, a killing Spiritual Formation was set up in the swamp, named Nine Dragons Binding Spirits. It was a powerful spiritual formation designed by the spiritual tattoo master of the Chi family. Even a Sea Spirit Realm practitioner couldn’t avoid from being killed if he was trapped in it, let alone Human-gang Realm Lin Xun.
In order to arrange this spiritual formation, Xu Qianjing mobilized a large number of manpower and materials. He thought it was enough to trap and kill Lin Xun. Who ever thought he failed totally.
Xu Qianjing found the reason of failure was that Lin Xun had profound attainments in spiritual tattoos besides his strong combat power and skillful fighting. This was incredible.
When he made this conclusion, he even doubted himself. But the fact told him that it was true. Otherwise, Lin Xun couldn’t be able to take control of Nine Dragons Binding Spirits and made the whole team destroyed in this battle!
Knowing this, Xu Qianjing was far from being frustrated. On the contrary, he became more and more interested in this campaign of encircling and suppressing the targets.
He once again made a perfect plan to kill the target on a lake.
However, Xu Qianjing didn’t expect that the target would escape from the bottom of the lake quietly by other means.
When he learned all this, he was astonished. He never thought that someone in the world could walk at the bottom of the lake. Even Sea Spirit Realm practitioners couldn’t stay in the water for a long time!
However, Lin Xun did it. He seized this opportunity to avoid a deadly situation.
To sum it up, they had carried out four campaigns of encirclement since the target appeared, but all of those ended in failure.
Xu Qianjing was still clam, but those deputies and subordinates couldn’t sit still. They quarreled and thought that Xu Qianjing was not worth the name of Tactic Master.
Now, Xu Qianjing was analyzing the intelligence, but a number of deputies nearby were already quarreling and blushing with anger.
Some people thought that they should centralize fire on the target. Others thought that they should change their conservative strategy even if they didn’t use all the strength.
In fact, they all revealed their dissatisfaction with Xu Qianjing, the person in charge.
Xu Qianjing didn’t explain for himself. It was normal for others to complain in cooperation. But when it came to making decisions, they dared not disobey him.
“There’s news that Lin Xun has taken the spiritual shuttle and he is going to cross the Maple Mount from the air. I wonder if Childe Xu has come up with any clever ideas.”
Someone asked in satire.
Others also looked at Xu Qianjing, waiting for his answer.
Although the words were harsh, Xu Qianjing seemed to be unaware of it. He answered calmly, “It’s not too late for us to take actions after he crosses the Maple Mount. I’ve made some arrangements for this and I believe that the target will be defeated by this surprise move.”
“It’s still too conservative to do so. I remember that we have six new Ziying Battleships. Would it be better to take advantage of this opportunity to send a battleship and kill the target in the air directly? ”
Someone snorted.
Others also nodded their heads. It was impossible for spiritual shuttle to avoid the attacking from the Ziying battleship in the air. So it would be easy to kill the target in this way.
