On the White Jade platform, the governor Liu Wujun and other big wigs as Wei Lingzhen, Du Dongtu showed a strange look and could not help twitching their lips at this moment.
What… What should they comment about Lin Xun?
When everyone awaked from their astonishments, Lin Xun had disappeared in the field.
After a fierce battle, Lin Xun was injured a lot. Meanwhile, he consumed a huge amount of physical energy, so he must recover in time.
So he left very decisively. As for the final round of assessment, it would begin three days later.
…
After Lin Xun’s leaving, the third round of assessment continued, and the news about Lin Xun’s fierce battle spread all over Mist City in the first time.
“Damn, Lin Xun is absolutely a freak! He is too terrible!”
Many people were shocked and exclaimed.
“Poor Le Zhiyou, if he hadn’t met Lin Xun, he would surely be able to pass the Province Test for his combat prowess.”
There were also many people felt sorry for Le Zhiyou.
“Aha, Lin Xun is so interesting. At the end of the battle, he did not forget to make propaganda for the Golden hall. I couldn’t help but want to visit the Golden Hall.”
Others laughed at Lin Xun’s unexpected behavior.
None of this affected Lin Xun. As soon as he returned home, he greeted Shue Jin and went straight into the room and began to meditate.
The final round of assessment would take place in three days. He must heal the injury and restore his physical strength to its peak before the assessment.
In the courtyard, Shue Jin did not sleep. He sat alone in the night and thought in dismay that in three days, he would leave Mist City and went to the Wasteland of Turbulence…
Suddenly, a very unusual dark shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. With a close look, it was a black strange bird!
It had golden pupils, red claws, six wings on its slender body. Its deep pupils were like burning magma, terrifying.
Dark Six-wing Falcon!
Suddenly, Shue Jin woke up from his thoughts. There was a ray of cold rays bursting out from his eyes. Since the Dark Six-wing Falcon was sent to here, did something great happen in the Heiyao Shrine?
That Dark Six-wing Falcon glided through the void quietly and landed in the courtyard.
“Your Excellency has ordered you to keep still before new information comes.”
The bird’s voice was so strong and low that it was as wise as a psychic bird.
“What on earth happened?”
Shue Jin frowned.
The Dark Six-wing Falcon shook its head and murmured, “I’m not sure yet. It seems that there’s a traitor in the Heiyao Shrine and core secrets has been leaked.”
Shue Jin raised his eyebrows and turned gloomy, “Traitor? It hasn’t happened in years. Something’s wrong with it.”
Shue Jin wondered then, “But, what does this have to do with my trip to the Wasteland of Turbulence?”
The Dark Six-wing Falcon was silent for a moment and said, “It has nothing to do with you, but it has something to do with the little fellow you care for. I should withdraw now.”
After it finished, it flapped its wings and rose up in a flash, disappearing beyond 30,000 meters high in the sky.
It was about Lin Xun!
Shue Jin was shocked in his heart and he lost in thoughts with cold rays filled in his pupils.
A traitor in the Heiyao Shrine leaked some secret that had something to do with Lin Xun, who Shue Jin had been protecting… What on earth was this?
Even the Dark Six-wing Falcon was sent to deliver the news. It could be proved that how serious the matter now was!
After a deep thought, Shue Jin finally shook his head. He received too little information to judge what the situation was. Today, he could only wait for new information to come and determine the next action.
Lin Xun’s existence actually exposed a traitor in Heiyao Shrine. This matter was even more astonishing beyond Shue Jin’s imagination!
…
The same time in the Night Castle,
The dark palace was as quiet and solemn as ever and there was a force of oppression in it.
“Once done, there is no room for retreat. To my surprise, in 136 years, the first traitor in Heiyao Shrine is you.”
In the darkness, a voice of indifference sounded with a ray of light shed on the white bone throne.
Above the throne sat a figure with great momentum as if it were infinitely ihgh, overlooking the world.
The Queen of Dark Night!
Her voice was as unique, deep and magnetic as ever, as mysterious as the night.
She did not reveal her true face, or even if she did, there were very few people in the world who could see her face.
With that light, it was clearly that in the center of the hall, there was a bare upper body man kneeling on his knees.
The man lowered his head and said nothing.
Looking carefully, the man’s back was penetrated by a fine black chain, which burned the man’s skin black by some mysterious black flame like the fire of hell.
But the man seemed unconscious, kneeling there motionless. This mysterious scene looked extremely penetrating.
“You’re always stubborn that you’d rather lose your life and defend yourself with silence. I have no other idea of catching you this time. I’m just curious about the benefits that the old fogey on the observatory promises you and let you choose to betray me.”
On the White Bone Throne, the voice of the Queen was dim and low, as if she was reminiscent of the past without any emotional fluctuation.
The man remained silent like a dumb.
“Well, since you choose to defend yourself to death, I will do as your will.”
As soon as the voice fell, the black chains dripped into the man’s skin on his back little by little.
At this moment, the man seemed to finally be unable to withstand the fatal pain, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
But even so, he still lowered his head, silent like a stubborn stone.
At this time, the kind-looking old man, who had been wearing a black court dress, went into the hall without looking at the man on the ground. He bowed to the distant White-bone throne and said, “Miss, it is clear that Zi Hun did this to preserve a woman.”
At this point, the man on the ground trembled violently, and he raised his head, which had been lowered, to reveal a tough face that had been weathered.
But now his face appeared particularly fierce with anger. His eyes were red as if to bleed.
He stared at the white bone throne in the distance, his pale and dry lips trembled as if to say something, but finally he lowered his head and seemed to have accepted his fate.
Seeing this, the Queen on the White Bone Throne was silent for a moment, and then she sighed softly, “Affection is indeed harmful.”
When the voice fell, the man on the ground was stiff. Immediately, his body was disappearing like being covered with an everlasting shadow and left no trace like evaporating.
Everything ended in silence.
When the old man saw this scene, he couldn’t help sighing.
“How’s that doing?”
The Queen of Dark Night asked.
“It has been noticed by the old flamen of the observatory. They arranged Chi Clan to solve the problem left over from that year thoroughly.”
The old man slowly said, “I have already brought the words to the other side as you asked, but I did not expect that they actually agreed.”
In the voice of the Queen, there was a tinge of surprise, “They agreed?”
The old man nodded, “But they also have a condition.”
“What’s that?”
The old man looked different, “They told me that it’s okay to keep Lin Xun alive, but it depends on whether he can enter the Forbidden City smoothly.”
There was a silence on the White Bone Throne, and it took a long time before the queen said, “This is the meaning of the old fogey on the observatory?”
The old man nodded, “It should be so.”
The Queen thought for a moment and said, “What are they going to do?”
The old man said, “Chi Clan will send forces to stop Lin Xun on the way to the Forbidden City.”
“This old man’s decision is strange. What on earth does he want to do?”
The Queen murmured softly.
The old man was also lost in thought. Obviously, he did not know the real reason.
“Alright, since he wants to act like that, let’s play with him and see what he really wants to do.”
The Queen decided, “Tell Shue Jin that the plan has changed, and he needs to take Lin Xun into the Forbidden City himself!”
The old man shook his head and said, “Miss, they have said that if we don’t interfere in this matter, they will only send practitioners below Sea Spirit Realm to stop Lin Xun. Otherwise, all the conditions previously agreed will be abolished.”
“Oh, do they think they’re going to put pressure on me?”
There was a chill in the Queen’s voice.
The old man murmured, “Miss, I feel it’s more like a test for Lin Xun. Maybe there’s some secret hidden in condition. We can admit this try.”
The Queen announced after a moment of silence, “Then you pass the news to Shue Jin and let Lin Xun make his own choice. Tell him that if he comes to the Forbidden City, he may be killed on the way, but if he does not come to the Forbidden City, he will never have the chance to know his real fate.”
The old man bowed slightly and led the way.
The hall recedes to darkness, empty and quiet.
…
The next nightfall, Shue Jin saw the Dark Six-wing Falcon again and learned all about it.

“Zi Hun… It’s him…”
Shue Jin was slightly distracted. Zi Hun, one of the twelve deacons of the Heiyao Shrine, was a strong practitioner of Tao Insight Realm. Even Shue Jin dared not judge confidently that he could defeat Zi Hun.
But such a strong man became a traitor…
Shue Jin was a little confused. What was the matter?
A piece of information about Lin Xun could make him choose to betray the Heiyao Shrine at all costs?
